O'BYRNEs GROCERY ROBBED.
The Door Broken Down and the Til

The Door Broken Down and the Till
Rified of SIS.
James O'Byrne's grocery at the corner of
Bay and Montgomery streets was broken
into yesterday morning and robbed of SIS.
Policeman Bender went on duty at 6o'clock
and at $3.50 he discoverel the front door to
the store broken down and lying in the
street. He entered and made a search, but
being unable to find anybody he sent word
for MIR. OByrne at the corner Of Montgom-
cry aud south Broad streets.
Sergt. Killourhy and Mr.. O'Byrne ar
rived IN few minutes and a thorough ex-
lying under the counter empty. Mr..
O'Byrne said that there was about Sl5 in
it. 1t is thought that some of the goods
were stolen, but Mr. O'Byrne was unable to
ascertain yesterday the extent of the rob
berry.
Officer Bender said he discovered tracks
leading from the store down toward the
river and he is Of the opinion that what.
ever was stolen was put into boats and
taken cross the river. The upper story of
the building ID occupied by white
people. They say that the rob
berry must have been committed between
and O'Clock, but the policeman who was
on that beat when policeman Bender re-
heved him, would have made his o'clock
post at the corner Of Bay and Montgomery
and nothing was reported wrong then. The
presumption is that the store was broken
into after O'clock
Up to an early hour this morning the
police had discovered nothing else missing
or any clew to the burglary.

in Sight of the Jail


in Sight of the Jail.
Amos Wright a colored prisoner, as
saulted and knocked down Deputy Sheriff
James Mcintosh Saturday night, while the
officer was conveying Wright to the Jail,

The assault occurred at Liberty and Hab-
ersham streets, within half block of the
jail Wright was committed to jail one
day last week by Justice Fountain on a
charge of larceny and as the prisoner had
demanded preliminary examination, he
was taken out Saturday for hearing. The
evidence was such that the justice recommit-
ted him, and Mcintosh was on his way back
with his prisoner at the time of the assault
Wright, who was not hsndcuffed, was going
along apparently perfectly willing to go to
jail, when all at once he suddenly fronted
the officer and planted stunning blow on
Mclntosh's nose and mouth, which knocked
him down and rendered him iusensiole for
a short time When he recovered con-
sciousness Wright was out of sight. Nc
Intosh went on to the Jail, and his nasal
organ was bleeding freely. Wright is a
powerful negro. and is still at large.

II am well pleased with that portion of
the road over which l have been," said

showing up we'll and that portion on the
Atlanta division will compare favorably
with any in the South"
A record is being made OF the
inspection and a comparison will
be made of similar in-
specton tour next year. These tours are
made for the advancement and improve
ment Of the road, and the officials are con-
tldent that it is the proper way to improve
each year over the preceding year.

Gale on Charleston.
The brig Jennie Hubert arrived in port
yesterday in a leaking condition. She is
from Charleston bound TO Baltimore with a
cargo of phosphate,rock Captain Morang
said that he left Charleston at o'clock
Saturday morning, and almost as soon as
he crossed tue bar encountered bad weather,
the wind coming from the northeast with
rough sea which caused his vessel 10 spring
a leak and for the benefit of all concerned
he was compelled 20 bear up for Tybee.
Captain Morang is believer in the use Of
OIL over the bow aud sides Of the vessel
during rough weather On his trip down
from Wiscassett to Charleston, he encoun-
tered a terrific gale, aud by the use of oil
bags broke the force Of the sea, which was
OF great effect in keeping the vessels decks
from being washed as she ran before the
gale. A survey will probably be called on
the vessel to-day aud she will haul out 10

THE NEXT WAR IN EUROPE.
It is expected that the next war in Europe,
for which great preparations have been and
will continue to be made, will be q tremen-
dous affair. It certainly will if present indi.
cations are realized. Several of the European
countries have very large armies. A COM
ple.e mobilization would give to France an
army of 2,5Oo, 900 to 5000, 600 men. Indeed,
some recent authorities have estimated that,
under the new military bill, in few years
more the number of men who would be di-
rectly connected with the army, or connected
with the military operations. would not fall
short of 4, 100000. Germany could now put
in the field an army of 2, ,650, 900, which will
doubtless be increased by the proposed
changes in the military law to more than
100000 Austria has prepared for war a
force numbering 100000. The italian
army upon war footing numbers about
2,500, 900, while the Russian army has re-
sources in troops which mount up to 5,00O,-
600. In this estimate no account is taken of
the smaller nations, such as Roumsnis, Ser
via, Belgium, Switzerland, Denmark, Spain,
Turkey, Sweden and Norway, to say moth
ing of England, which would in all prebs-
bility be drawn into the vortex of this great
war if the peace Of Europe was once rudely
broken. It would be easy in this way to
figure up active combatants to the number
of II, ,0O0, 900 men.
1t is an Ill wind that blows no good. The
Boston Herald thus points out some Of the
results which might be expected from the
meeting of these armies: We fancy that,
under such circumstances, everything that
we can grow or manufacture will be in de.
mand at prices far exceeding those which ou,
producers now consider sufficient. In this
way, not only will our commerce, if we have
one, find ample employm ent, but the same
employment will extend to the workshop, the
foundry and the farm. This may be bene.
ating at the expense Of others, but we dar,
say such gains will not be of unalloyed dis
advantage even to Europe, for If the Ameri
can people were to prosper wonderfully q
the result of keeping out of warlike compli
cations, while those who were entangled II
them suffered terrible losses, no less than tn
| horrors. of war, might be exhibited in suel
striking contrast that 1t would be no longe
possible for the governments of Europe t,
re.establish their present military system.

Her mouth il large, with lips firmly set, with
an expression of unconquerabIe will power;
and this is all intensified by iron-gray hair
hooding the sides of the face almost to the
chin, which is then gathered in huge knot
at tbs top OF the head. There never lived 30
homely and yet 80 fascinating a man as was
parlors and at pianos by the hour. Oosima
Wagner is his prototype in woman. I be-
lieve her to be what Wagner ever insisted
she was, the most intellectual woman in
Germany. Not this alone. Her intellectual
ity was even surpassed by her matehless de-
votion. It did not make her his enemy. It
made her make him. No fattery ever
tempted her into the weakness Of vanity re-
garding her own majestic part in what the
world got from Wagner. Hence, and be-
cause of this loyal abnegation only, she must
ever be known as luminously as he who
would not have gained immortality without
just that power from her and just that abue-
cation which devoutly holds to this hour.

was all his mighty genius. I could help but
little" Then with great spirit this remarka-
BILE assertion: set is the eternal principle
that the mele shall create; that the female
shall nurture. Few women ever created.
They were sderelicts,' wandering forces,

master-power of mated genius in man their
contribution to the worlds good would have
been infinitely greaterl"
Cosima Wagner not only gave her own
magnificent powers to Wagner, but abe gave
Listz-Listz the petted of kings and princes,
the adored of all women, that greatest pian-
tst the world ever knew, who never uttered
word, made motion, or struck note, with-
out presenting a living idea-his endless and
all powerful slave. These two tremendous
forces, with access to kings treasury, gave
him power to realize his ideals fully; for
tune NO composer before him ever possessed.
As to his influence upon music believe it to
have been bad; not because of his real &C.
complishment, but because there remain
only two classes to contemplate his work.
One believes with Wagner that the ultimate
was reached in his methods, and initiates
them sadly and badly. The other absolutely
rejects everything Wagnerian. Neither dis
ciples nor enemies are true critics. Time is
the only inexerable determiner of what ID
best In art. And I believe time will give
Richard Wagner this place: A transoendent
poet and musician whose twin genius created
new form OF expressing simultaneously
majestic ideas in blended sound and thought.
Wagner made q new type Of a certain ex-
preston. He did not reveal melody. Its
divinest forms were before him. BE
disturbed these for little. They will again
appear. He created immertally for the
supremest appreciation of the intellect. The
world will ever cherish that music whioh
appeals to the supremest appreciation Of the
heart. EDGAR L. WAKENAN.
