MARCY.

For some time past a number of
young ladies and gentlemen of Blooms
burg have been rehearsing a play call
ed "Marcy," which will be presented
at the Opera House on Thursday
evening, January 81. 1t is a play
abounding in pathos and humor, and
will afford an evening of royal enter
talnment. The object for which 1t is
given is to raise money for new
organ for the Episcopal Church.
Those who patronize it should
remember that they will not only
derive pleasure from this entertain
ment, but that they are helping to
purchase what will be source of
enjoyment for many years to come.
A new organ will add greatly to the
excellence of the music at the church,
and the public will have the benefit OF
1t.
The prices of seats have been fixed
at IS, IS and SO cents. Reserved
seats can be secured at States Book
Store,

THE KELLOGG CONCERT.

The first entertainment of the
series in the Students Lecture Course
was given in the Normal Auditorium
on Monday evening. There was
large and we'll pleased audience
present Mr.. Kellogg's warbling is
something wonderful. Miss Dillman's
recitations were pleasing, and her
calisthenics and Delsarte gymnastics
were novel and beautiful. The colored
lights produced most charming effects.
Mrs. Kellogg sang well, though suffer
ing from severe cold. Miss Bow
man presided at the piano very ac-
ceptably. If this is forerunner of
what is to come, the holders of course
tickets are going to get more for a
dollar than has ever been offered in a
lecture course in this town before.
The next number will be lecture by
MIR. Geo. Keenan, on January 2sth.

ANIMOTIsOOPE COMING AGAIN.

On the a8th of December a unique
entertainment was given in the Luth-
eran Church of this place, by Lyman
H. Howe with the animotiscope and
phonograph. Those who saw and
enjoyed the marvelously realistic
scenes and sounds, were delighted
and amazed. This is not a magic
lantern, as many people suppose, but
is one of the wonders of the nineteenth
century. With the exception of those
who saw this marvellous invention
when here before, it has probably
never been seen by any of the resi-
dents of this town and vicinity. All
objects appear to be life size. Scenes
are shown as they actually transpire.
Horses gallop, men run, water splashes
and waves roll, smoke rises and
wreathes about, and an express train,
at the rate of a mile minute, dashes
rapidly by. The phonograph vividly
reproduces the Kissing of steam and
the rattle and roar of the train.
Tickets, and board for reserved seats
at States. Reserved seats thirty-hve
cents; general admission twenty-five
cents. For the benefit of the Luth-
eran church, January 90, at the Opera
House.

TAKE THEM OFF.

Hats with large plumes and feathers
are fashionable this winter Some OF
them stand up in the air from six to
ten inches. They are objects Of
beauty, and calculated to excite feel
ings Of admiration or envy, according
to the disposition of the beholder.
But in order to be admired they must
be seen at the right place and time.
A front view or side view on the
street is far preferable to a rear view
at a place of amusement. People
who pay to see entertainments have
right to an unobstructed view of the
stage, and this is fact that should be
remembered by ladies with large hats.
This is particularly applicable to the
floor of the Normal Auditorium, where
the stage is low, and the seats are on
a level.
This subject has been fought out in
the cities, and it is now the almost
universal custom for ladies to remove
their hats in the theatres. 1t is not
an unusual thing for ladies who keep
them on to be requested to remove
them by persons behind them. A
small evening bonnet without plumes
is in much better taste in public halls,
aud an uncovered head is better yet.

DROWNED ON SUNDAY.

Great excitement was caused Sun
day forenoon by the report that
several young men had fallen through
the Ice and drowned. The news spread
fast and the road leading to the scene
of the reported accident was lined
with people, but after reaching the
place it was found that the report had
been somewhat exaggerated and that
only one had been drowned. From
what we could learn the facts are
about as follows
On Sunday forenoon Mr.. Shaffer,
who lives above Iron Dale opposite
the company dam, heard the cries of
man, who he imagined was in
trouble, and he at once started out to
see what wasthe matter. On arriving
at the dam he found that a hole had
been broken IN the ice. He gave the
alarm and in about an hour the body
of George Scott, was removed from
the water.
Squire Jacoby was sent for at once,
but after he had learned the facts in
the case, decided that an inquest was
not necessary, as all the evidence
proved that the drowning was acci-
dental Undertaken Baker removed
the body to Mr.. SCOTS home on Sec
ond Street.
A fish basket was strapped on
his shoulder and it is the belief
that he had been fishing through the
ice. There appears to have been no
one with him at the time, and the
exact particulars about the accident
will probably never be known. The
unfortunate young man was son Of
William Scott, a conductor on the
B. & S. Railroad, who resides at the
lower end of town. He was at Jami-
son City at the time of the drowning,
and an engine was sent up to bring
him down. The case is very sad
one, and the family have the SYM
pathy of the whole community. The
fnneral took place on Tuesday.

SI4,3o7.34, Of which $ra, is
now uncollectible. Among these over
drafts is one of 3748.77; another of
SIS94.AS; another of $I43a.a3
another of $543.os; another of $40
"a another of $355.54; another of
$a6s.72 eight of over $roo, and a
number of smaller amounts.
Among the worthless assets is a
judgment against J. S. Cochran &
Bro. for $S694.sa. Another item Of
loss is in Northern Pacific stock which
was placed in the bank as collateral
for notes not paid, and which the bank
was compelled to take at par value,
Sroo, now worth $50 and some
of it less. The depreciation in the
value of this stock alone is about
$4,000.
1t is claimed that most of these
losses occurred before any of the
present board of directors were elected.
We are informed that there are
about one thousand depositors, and
that there is probably $4,000 due
them. If this be correct, the stock.
holders will have to raise about $as,.
900 more than their good assets in
order to pay the depositors. This,
however, is only an approximate esti.
mate, as some of the assets consider
ed good may not be collectible, while
some that is marked worthless may
be collected.
While it is apparent that some very
loose business has been done at the
Bloomsburg Banking Company, by
somebody, there is no reason to be-
lleve that,any of the depositors will
be the losers, as the concern is
partnership, and the individual pro-
perty of the partners or stockholders,
is liable for any deficiency after the
assets OF the company are exhausted.

The Executive Committee of the
