LET THE SILVER rRUxpETs BLOwP'
Il am David the Shepherd Boy

The Cantata of David" given to-
night at the Opera house, is not
given as a mere concert, but as an Or
atorio, where the story of the dra-
mstic life Of David, the slayer of the
giant Goliath, and then king of Israel,
and finally the Psalmist of the Bible,
is represented as a whole, and that in
manner both lyrical and dramatical.
The music is by Geo. F. Root, and is
very beautiful, while the words are
selected and arranged by Hesekiah
Butterworth, the editor of the Youths
Companion.
The different characters will be rep
resented as follows:

PARIS, March ia pessimistic feel
ing prevails regarding the position of

| is reported that the bank is deeply in

COMPETENCY THE TEST.
4 Clean Sweep of Democratic Post
masters Seems Unlikely.

WAsHISsToS, March 19.-0ne of the
matters considered at the meeting of
the cabinet to-day was the case of an
Illinois postmaster whose removal
was asked by one OF the Illinois
congressman because of the postmas-
ter's political activity. 1t was admit
ted by the congressman that the Office
was weli managed, and the matter was
called 10 the attention of the cabinet
for report, that the action in this
case might constitute precedent here
after.
Posimaster-Gen Wanamaker said
tonight that he did not feel at liberty
to talk about what took place st the
cabinet meeting. There IS reason to
believe, however, that the result was
adverse to the wishes of the Illinois
congressman, but it is not known
whether or not any fixed line OF action
in cases of this kind was determined
