COUNTRY PRODUCE STOLEN Be-
tween eight and nine o'clock last night
thirteen and half dozen eggs, seven
rabbits and several pounds of butter,
the property of Messrs. Cornelius Beach
and Fairfax, of Fairfax county, were
stolen from q bench in the Marx t
court. The owners, it seems, had en-
tered the enclosure from the south gate,
and having placed their produce on =
bench went out the way they entered,
leaving the gate open. A negro boy
subsequently entered the enclosure and
bolted the gate from the inside. The
owners of the produce returned later,
but could not get into the court. They
saw the boy inside, and walked out on
Fairfax street with the intention Of
entering from another direction. While
thus engaged the thief made his es-
cape with his plumber. He had placed
a basket of chickens on one of the fish
benches, but not finding this portable,
deemed it safe to leave this species of
plumber behind. 1t seems that some
countrymen who attend this market
often leave the south gate open for
their convenience in passing to and
from the houses in Market alley, thus
offering fine opportunity for thieves
to ply their vocation.

ORIGINAL FISK JUBILEE SINGERS
A form of entertainment not offered to
the public often is that furnished by the
Fisk Jubilee Singers. The Original
Loudin company, after an absence from
this country OF six years, will appear
at the Opera House next Thursday
evening. Those who remember the
voices that sang the Fisk University
into existence % years ago will hail
with delight the coming visit of the Ju-
bilee Singers, which will also afford an
opportunity to those who have never
heard them of hearing the original COM
pany. The advertisement appears in
another column.

BELIEVES He SWALLOWED IT.-The
disposition OF the case of Michael Laup-
heimer VS.. Thomas Jefferson, native
of China, in the Police Court Yesterday
morning has by no means satisfied the
plaintiff with the innocence of the ac-
cused. The latter is now firmly con-
WINGED that the Chinaman swallowed
the $500 note when he found he was
to be arrested. The celestial has lived
in Alexandria since he was a small
child having been brought here from
China by the late Capt. Hussey. For
wears he was domestic in the family
of the late R. L. Wood, and has hereto
lore borne good character.

AT DOVER, n. j., last night the re-
ceiving mill of the Am erican Forcite
Powder Company, containing more
than fifteen thousand pounds of waste
acid and nitro glycerine, was blown to
pieces. There were two watchmen on
duty. Neither can be found, and it is
supposed they were killed. All that
remains of the site where the building
stood is hole in the ground about
fifty feet deep. Large rocks that lay
in the bottom of the hole are broken
into hundreds of pieces.

PREPARING FOR A BURGLARY
Early last night a colored girl employ
ed at the residence of Mr.. F. G. SwaiEe,
at the northwest corner of Fairfax and
VOLS streets, found a burglars outfit in
the corner of the garden, where it had
been placed for convenient use, the
owner having merely to reach through
the fence in order to procure the imple-
ments. The outfit consisted of COM
pass saw, bit and other tools generally
used in burglarizing. The were carried
to the station house. A robbery had
evidently been planned, and had the
outfit not been found by the girl one OF
the stores in that section OF the city
would doubtless have been broken open
last night and robbed.
