SrEUBENvILLE June 3.-The Columbian
Fourth OF July will be appropriately cele-
brated in this city. Steuben Lodge, NO i,
X. Of P, which inaugurated the celeDra-
| ton of Columbus Day last October, has
| taken hold Of the matter, appointed q com,
| mittee 10 make all arrangements, solicit
funds, etc, and already there are enough
assurances TO safely say that the celeora-
| ton will be q success. Steuben Lodge
headed the subscription list with 500,
which should and will be an incentive 70
our liberal hearted citizens to donate sums
in amount large enough to insure sufficient
money to defray all expenses. The COM
| mittee has not vet decided upon all the at
fractions that will be presented, but q
! grand fireworks display in the evening.
from of the cone OF Means's hill, so that all
in the city can see it, will be one Oh the
principal features. There will also be OIL
cycle races and other features OF an at
t~ractive nature. The committee appointed

the personel is good guarantee that every

The time OF j. w. Jordan, Republican,
and Louis Anderson, Democrat, as men,
bers of the City Board Of Elections, ex-
| pired on June Ist, and Mayor Scott ap-
| pointed Charles f. Moodey, Republican,
and Andrew Keogler, Democrat, TO NIL
the vacancies. Mr.. Moodey was a mem
Der of Council from the Fifth ward, and
resigned the position 10 accept the one on
the Board OF Elections. This will necessi-
tate q new election in the Fifth 10 nil the
vacancy, which will DC held ABOUT the
18th inst. A new election will also be held
in the Second ward at the same time
to fill a vacancy In Council, caused by the
removal of w. L. Medill from the ward.
These new elections will cost about one
hundred and fifty dollars each. They come
high but we must have them.
1t is to be greatly regretted that a larger
audience was not at the Opera House
Thursday TO see "Othello," which was
played by Frank Hennig and company. 1t
is not often that the people Of SteubenvlIle
have an opportunity TO witness one OF
Shakespeare's plays presented by q nrst
class company. The universal verdict OF
all who were present, is that Hennig IS a
fine actor His impersonation OF "Othello"
was what it should be-. he is fortunate IN
having excellent support. Thos. K. Engle-
ton as ''Isgo," Miss Emma Vaders as
"Desdemonda," and Miss Henrietta Vaders
as ''Emelia," were excellent, and all the
other characters were well taken.
"Othello, could not nave been better rem
dered except by Booth and Barrett.
The Board of Health has decided that
dollar Alley" one Of the stink holes or
the city, for the public good, should be
paved, but the McConville estate, which
owns most of the AUDITING property, has
asked for an injunction and a temporary
restraining order was granted by Judge
Mansfield preventing the Board OF Health
from paving the alley. This will postpone
the work until the case can be heard and
determined.
Wetler's circus was in the city on Friday
and Saturday.
Hon. r. Sherrard arrived home Tuesday
from a business trip to New York and
