ticient accommodation for the throngs
of people who crowded to st. Andrews
Church Friday night to listen to the pas

away unable to get within the doors.
The immense audience that was for
tunate enough to gain admission was
amply repaid in listening 10 the magnifi-
cent rendering of Gaul's Passion Week
oratorio.
1t was an extremely artistic produce
ton bearing the impress Of the careful
supervision of the conductor, John
Craig. The solos, trios and quartets
were rendered by the following vocal
lists: Mrs. II. L. Pyle, Miss Eva NJ.

Eaton, Jr., H. B. Harrison, II. r. Triggs,

rests on any one else connected with
the steamer, il Mr. Matthews will in
form us ON whom that suspicion rests,

than We will 10 bring the guilty part V

The fact that the depreciation oc.

Us a gross injustice, which | trust yo,l

Respectfully,
O. l.. PARKER.
The above is in perfect accord with
our idea and the gentlemen who sus-
pected employees of the steamer with
the flowel-bed depredations should he
more careful in the future. We would
state in defense Of Mr.. Matthews that
We have never heard from him any
censure of the boat employees. He
believes. as We do. that certain bad
boys do the mischief, and no one else
but them. We do not believe "A more
genteel. respectable and honest class
OF officials go in and out the port Of
Baltimore than those on the steamer
Pocomoke. Several persons whose
flowers have disappeared insisted that
because they always went while the
boat was here that some one on the
boat must necessarily be implicated.
We do not helieve this To be the case
and We have never once entertained
snch an idea. and again, We would
admonish people To he more care
ful how they accuse. We have inform
