graceful and fascinating writer's

Within few steps of the inter,

oughfares in Chicago, if not in the
entire country, is a store through

Establishment of its size in the West.
Men and women whose faces bear
the stamp of intelligence aud cule
ture; women who lead in society,
art and letters; men who are promi-

Musicians, artists, judges, and jour

gives immediate evidence of its
character, which is that of centre
of current news and information.
1t is the news and periodical depot
of Charles Macdonald at So Wash

ing letter:
CHICAGO, Feb. 20, Messrs.
Wells, Richardson IL Co. Burlington,
VT Gentlemen: 1t is clearly the
duty of every person to acknowledge
a service rendered, no matter what
its nature. When, however, the
character of the benefit bestowed is
such that it lightens the daily bur
dens of our lives, and changes our
nights from dreary watches to
periods of tranquil and refreshing
repose, the duty resolves itself into
pleasure. A few months ago,

Terry SUCCESSFUL EyENs,
Esther. the Beautiful Queen, Monday
Night.

A large and appreciative audience
was present last Monday night, at
Brown'sOpera House, to witness the
first presentation of the Cantata
Esther, the Beautiful Queen" by
home talent.
The Can taJa was grand undertake
ing and was very successfully carried
out, rejecting credit upon the man
agemenL of Mr.. @. e. Macomber, I'M
der whose personal supervision it was
given, and upon the aptness and
pains-taking care of the talented COM
pany, which embraced some Of our
most popular Yocalists.
Realizing that it is a delicate task
to enter upon individual criticism of
local artists, we will not attemptit in
this instance beyond saying that
many encomiumS have been passed
upon the strong, clear voice of Miss
Nettie Glenn, who assumed the lead
ing character of "Queen Esther" and
who is fast acquiring a reputation as
a Queen of Song. Other Soloists,
however share in the plaudits OF
'tWell Done" and the chorus singers
are by no means left out in the ex-
pressions of approval.
A very impressive and pleasing
feature was the beautiful triumphal
march by thirty-five children, who
executed the difficult movements with
remarkable precision.

Mr.. r. H. Poindexter, who conducts
a small store at the corner of Bird and

and robbed by an unknown party near
Vance's iron foundry, Depot street,
at IL o'clock Sunday night.

Der did not speak a word. The form
er was knocked senseless, after which
the latter proceeded to steal between

right hand pants pocket. He found So
cents left this morning. In getting
up, Mr.. POindeXter says that he pulled
out his pistol. While doing this the
robber also drew a shooting iron and
placed the muZZle of it to Poindexter's
breast. just as it fired the latter
struck the pistol and the ball went
through the muscle of his left arm.
The coat and shirt sleeves, where the
ball entered, were both burnt.
Mr.. PoindeXter claims not to know
whether the party who assaulted him
was white or colored man; however,

Mr. P5indexter thinks the burglar
