ADJUSTMENTS.

Madame, and her son Augustin, Neu-
Vile, will be the attraction at Fergu
sons theatre to morrow evening, pre-
senting for the first time in this city
their new play entitled, Cell %" from
the pen OF the talented actress and author
Nine. Neuville, and written for her son
Augustin, giving him an opportunity to
show his peculiar style than in any of
his other plays. The story is one of
intense interest and well worked out,
holding the interest and attention of the
audience to the end. Nine. Neuville has
part entirely dissimilsr to the emotional
line of work to which she has been
accustomed, and Augustin Neuville has
part which suits him exactly. The
critics from our neighboring cities are
loud in heir praise of the play and the
company presenting 1t. Nine. Neuviile
and Augustin have many friends and
admirers in Shenandoah, they all remem'
berlng their appearance here in "The
Boy Tramp" for the past three seasons;
but this year, with new play and the
best company he has ever had, will be
doubly welcomed.

suffering from injuries" etc, was badly
mixed by the compositor It should have
read David Lloyd moved his family from
this town to Minersville three weeks ago

ment is made to remove the impression
that the whole family was injured in the

TOSH WASN
A TEMPEST.
Mrs. EiSman Gave Him a Very Warm
Reception.
SMASHED THE FURNITURE.
The Only Whole Piece The Constable Got
on the Levy Was a StOve-Law
will Follow.

Constable Thomas Tosh had a lively
time in making a levy on landlord s war
rant yesterday afternoon. George Leitzel
claimed that Mrs Cassie Eisman moved
out of one of his houses early last Sunday
morning, leaving rent unpaid TO the
amount of $54, and caused levy to be made.
Leitzel and Tosh found the furniture in
the house Of Mrs. Hoffman, in Grants
row, on West Coal street. Mrs. Hoffman
is Mrs Eisman's sister.
When Tosh arrived at the house he
found all the doors locked, but he raised
a window which had not been fastened
and crawled into the house, Mrs. Els
man flew into a terrible passion. She
struck Tosh several times with poker
and commenced smashing the furniture
with an AK. Two bureaus and several
chairs were cut into kindliug wood in
short order and Tosh was like jumping
jack trying to steer clear of the flying
pieces.
The enraged woman was covered with
blood from cuts she sustained from
splinters and scattering glass, aud the
constable declares that he was never in a
more lively place in his life. After
smashing all her furniture Mrs. Eisman
sprang forward to demolish stove with
the axe, and at this point Tosh interfereC
and took the weapon from the woman.
After while Mrs. Eisman cooled dowI
and Tosh proceeded to see what was lef
for the levy, and the stove was all he ooulC
find. He opened the door to let Leitzel il
and the two carried out the stove.
But this did not end the matter. Las
night Mrs. Eisman caused Tosh's arres
for assault and battery and her sister
Mrs. Hoffman, had Tosh and Leitze
arrested on a complaint of forcible entry
Justice Williams heard the cases and pu
Tosh under $500 bail ON each charge an
Leitzel under $500 bail.
Mrs. Esman claims that Constabl
Tosh choked her and Mrs. Hoffman
alleges that the constable and Leitze
! forced open the window by which entrance
was gained with a crowbar and pole anC
that Tosh smashed the lock Of doc
with an axe. Tosh and Isitzel deny thes
allegations.

Held For Trial.

Thomas Igo, of Jackson's, and John
Dempsey, of Barry's, were before Justice
Williams last night, charged with Great
ing disturbance on a Lakeside Railway
car last Saturday night and smashing one
of the large windows. They were held in
1900 bail each for trial at court There
were about twenty in the fight, but Igo
and Dempsey were the only men who
could be identified, aud they are said TO
have been the ringleaders.

Refused to Pay.

Rev Newhart, of Pottsyille, the repre-
sentative of the Esherite faction of the
Evangelical Association, visited town
yesterday and demanded rents from the
tenants of properties belonging TO the
local church, on West Cherry street,
The tenants refused to recognize Rev.
Newhart's claim TO rents. 1t is believed
that the demand and refusal of payment
will be used as a basis for "a suit in eject
ment by the Esherite people. Rev. New
hart stated that no immediate steps
would be made to gain possession OF the
church, which is still in the hands of the
adherents OF Bishop Dubs.

THE DEVILS WORK SHOP,

Talks.

My father began life for himself
In log house, with quilts hung up
for doors, in the early days of
Missouri. A vigorous industry was
imperative. Full of energy and
pluck, he became the possessor of
one farm, added to another. 1t
was work to his full capacity,
which he believed was needed to
succeed, and which caused him to
make remark which has never left
my mind. My father was then in
easy circumstances and could have
easily hired men and women too to
do "the work" when | heard him
make this remark: II would prefer
for my children to carry straws
from one side and then back to the
other side Of the street than to see
them idle" ''got the idea"
Sydney Smith says: "The secret
of successful and happy life is for
a person to be fully engaged in some
undertaking." and we cannot begin
too soon.
Whatever will.force or success |
have attained has been by the early
training of my father. What has
seemed so strange to me is 10 see
people who are rich today keeping
their boys and girls from doing the
very thing that made life success
(work). If fathers and mothers
would remember that an idle mind
is the DEVILS work shop, they would
then understand how maynard boys
and girls are made. know it's much
easier to hire somebody to wait on
your rich boys and girls, but you
only fix your boys and girls TO be
poor.
Teach your boys and girls the
nobility of work and self reliance.
We plead for the boys and girls--
don't ruin them by idle lives.
Never do for your son or daugh-
ter what they can do for themselves.
Let them save you as many step $
az they can, and in your old age
they will take steps you cannot
make, and in after life will thauk
you for your duty done,

man or woman find fault with their
