Attempted BurgIary.

At Moundsvile Thursday night about
two o'clock burglars entered the hard
ware store of Addison Harris, by break
ing one Of the large store windows at
the front Of the building. They bored
several auger holes in the front door,
but evidently gave that up as too hard
job. Mr. Harris was awakened by the
noise, but the thieves made their escape
before he could get TO the window.
They carried away two good revolvers.

LONDON, June 22.-The representa-
tive of the Associated Press in this city
is authorized 70 state that the confer
ence yesterday between Mr. Gladstone
and the McCarthyite leaders almost
solely concerned the proposals of Mr..
Gladstone to extend guarantees TO the
mInOrities under the proposed new
Home Rule bill. AT the opening OF the
conference Mr.. Gladstone asked what
prospects there were for a reunion of
the Irish Parliamentary party. He was
told that the prospects were remote.
Though he said that renewed efforts
should be made to re-establiSh union, he
expressed no great concern as to the re-
suit should that not be attained He is
so hopeful of such a solid majority at
the approaching general elections that
he believes that the return of the few
So-called Independents will not affect
the issue.

Yesterday Afternoon and Evening.
Richie school is noted for its inter-
esting and novel entertainments, but on
no occasion has any one proved so sue
cessiul as that given yesterday az
ternoon and evening. When the annex
and the main school combine and give
an entertainment something extraor-
binary is expected, and such was the
case on this particular occasion. The
friends and parents Of the participants
turned out ia full, and the grammar
hall was filed to overflow
ing, while the main hall
class room and windows were crowded
with eager eyes to catch glimpse OF
the bright costumes or see the pretty
manoeuvres of a drill. The proceeds,
which will likely amount TO considera-
BILE, are to be turned over to the treas
urer Of the alumni association or that
school, under whose auspices the affair
was conducted.
The programme opened with chorus,
"The Chicago Exposition" by a stage
full of small children, who acquitted
themselves admirably.
A recitation, 1.-THE Dead Doll, by
Stella Souderman, showed that the little
girl had excellent talent in the elocu-
tionary line.
The dialogue-"The Quarrel Among
the Flurers" took we'll with the aud
fence. Charles Miller followed with
recitation, 1.-THE Pauper Soldiers Sto-
~" in which he delivered the lines In
clear and distinct voice. The next
number was one of the hits Of the even
ing, which was in the form OF catalogue,
THE Visit OF the Nations" Reprent-
ing each Of the different nations with
appropriate costumes.
A vocal solo by Hilda Helmbrecht,
rendered in a pleasing manner, was the
next number, and was followed by
| Japanise Fan Drill, in which there were
some very pretty figures formed, Car
! RE Oberman, acting as leader OF the drill.
A class recitation followed, in which
