Robbed on the Train,

Mr.. Charles Hagan, who had been working
at his trade as plasterer for the past three
months at Raleigh C. H., took the train at
Hinton, w. Va, last Friday afternoon to re-
turn to his home at WilIamsport, Pa, in COM
pany with a man named Crewe, who had
been working with him, as partner, we under
stand, and who was also on his way to his
home at Williamsport, Pa, on awaking from
sleep before the train reached Staunton, dis
covered that his money (s225.) which he had
placed in the inside pocket Of his vest, had
been stolen. The passengers state that, whilst
asleep young man, who addressed him as
father and asked him if he were asleep, was
seen to Inhibition his vest, and take out a
tobacco bag, which Hagan says contained his
money. As it is presumed that no one except
Crewe knew where Hagan carried his money,
and as Crewe left the train at Clifton Forge
and came on the next morning on sub
sequent train, suspicion very naturally at
taches to Crewe, though Hagan declared that
he did not believe Crewe stole his money.
Crewe declined to assist his friend Hagan and
went on home leaving him here without
money among strangers. He was assisted by
the Masons and we understand returned to
Hinton instead of going on to his home.

Cardinal Gibbons has written let.
ter in which he advocates the opening
of the Worlds Fair on Sundays, urging
that the closing of the same on that
day would deprive many of the priv
lege of beholding what promises to be
the event Of the century, and who
might otherwise be tempted to spend
the day in dissipation. He thinks il
all the machinery should be stopped,
and all the mechanical and laboring
work should cease, there would be nc
dissertation of the holiness of the day
by letting people. who can visit the
Fair at no other time, visit it on Sun
days and behold the most wonderful
productions of human skill and ingen-
uity. There is 40 more reason for clos
ing the Fair on Sunday than there
would be for closing public parks. I'm.

should be thrown open to the public

a Delightful Musical Treat,

The vocal and instrumental concert given in
the Opera House last Friday night, under the
auspices of the Y. NJ. q. A.-being the second
star Course for this Winter-by the cele-
brated Divide Musin Company was exquisitely
delightful and artistic, and was intensely en-
joyed by the large audience which filled every
seat in the Dress circle and parquette. The
vocal music was of high order and the in
strumental superb The performances on the
violin by Divide Musin excelled anything ever
heard here and was truly wonderful He
ranks with the worlds most distinguished
Violinists of the past-Ole Bull and Paganini
and of the present is, so far as we know,
without peer. Like Paganini, he played
''Moses in Egypt" on single string, giving
perfectly every note.
