Board of Verities and will carry their “Star Crescent" certificate, proving that she is one of the best passenger steamers afload. She measures about 300 feet in length and 68 feet in breadth. The engine is of the walking beam type, and with the feathering type of side propelling wheels, the jar or tremor common to boats is absolutely done away with, Steam is supplied by three large nou-explosive boilers. Steam steering gear, as well as all other modern equipments, is used, and the steamer will be lighted by 800 incandescent electric lights, besides a powerful searchlight. The exterior of the Greyhound’s upper works will be, as usual, of pine, painted white. The interior will be finished in hard wood cabinet work, quarter-sawed oak being used on the main deck, mahogany in the dining room and grand saloon, and chestnut, stained malacite, in the gentlemen’s smoking room on the hurricane deck, She also has a ladies’ parlor, or obseri vatory, on the hurricane deck, which will be finished in gold and white. I This is an entirely new feature on the | Greyhound that is not found off any I other passenger steamer. Another | particular feature of the Greyhound, I especially worthy of note, is the numI ber and size of the windows (all plate glass), which are so numerous and ' low that passengers can sit in the ' grand saloon, dining room, or any I other rjom or parlor on the steamer i and enjoy equally with those outside j th > unrivalled scenery through which ! the steamer passes. The private parlor on the Grey- | hound are provided with bay windows and are very luxuriously furnished. . The social hall or lobby, of the Grey- [ hound will be covered with an elegant design of inlaid rubber tiling, and the steamer furnished throughout with the best and most handsome designs of carpets and furniture that can lie found. The carrying capacity of the new Greyhound will be 3,000 passengers, which is about double the capacity of any other steamer that has ever run out of Toledo. Toledo Times. The author of the new four act drama "The Volunteer Organist." which is to be the next attraction at Bosse’s opera house. Tuesday. March 11, has created a new character which bids fair to rival the immortal Charles Dickens’ “Uriah Heep” in “David Copperfield. This unique character, Hubbard Griffith, is a sort of a hypocritical countgy jiersonage who endeavors to induce God fearing people to aid him to further his own dishonorable ends. Griffin by lying and plotting, gets the hero, the Rev. How ard Sturgis, into considerable trouble, but in the end receives his just deserts. Griffin is the embodiment of all that is despicable, but, nevertheless, the author has made him human. There are many characters in the

- flesh to be found in rural localities to- ' day, and those who live, or have lived • in the country, will readily recognize him. Apropos of this the play is ali ways entertaining and instructive. > "The Volunteer Organist” has been , given an elaborate and costly stage « setting, and a fine cast, and thedrama • is sure to play a very successful en » gagement. One of the scenes of the pastorial ' drama, “The Volunteer Orgrnist," 1 which is to be producted in this city, ' is the rescue of a child in a snowstorm by a pair of conines. Tn order to make this situation as realistic as possible. Manager Harry Martell, has ' imported to this country two genuine - St. Barnards from Switzerland. These dogs have done actual service in the Alps, and one of them. “Monarch," is ‘ the hero of a score of rescues. The dogs were formerly the propert yof the Monks, and it was with reluctance that they were permitted to depart from the Monastery. “Mardo” the other flog is not as large as “Monarch," but the two are considered the finest speciments of the St. Barnard ever brought to America. A few' days ago Jacob Ruppert, the proprietor of the Ruppert Kennels when he saw “Manarch," offered Mr. Martell 82,500 for him. Martell refused the offer and said that twice that sum could not purchase him. At orpera house next Tuesday evening flemorial Sister Hannah Moore has finished her allotted task in the conflict of life. The chapter of her earthly sojourn is closed but her many virtues are worthy of imitation and should be an inspiration to all of us who are left to meet the realities of this life. We realize that in the death of Sister Moore our Chapter has lost an efficient worker, a kind sister, a bright and enthusiastic Star, Brother Moore a loving and effectionate wife, Sister Hattie and Chtirlie a friend whose interest in their behalf was equal to that of a mothei. That while we are deprived of our sister’s association in the flesh, we will ever cherish in our memories her many virtues, emulate her Christian character and fidelity to this Chapter. We can at this time with Martha’s truthful faith, look beyond the shore of time and know that our sister, though lost to mortal vision, is only waiting beyond the river to welcome us to our eternal home. That we extend to Brother Moore and family our heart felt sympathy in this hour of their sad affliction. That a copy of these memorials be spread of record on the minutes of this Chapter, a copv presented to Brother Moore and family and a copy to each of the city papers for publication. Nellie Ford.

Bombay, March 3.—Abdul Aziz Ben Feysul, a descendant of the old Wa ' habi ameers, with an army of 2,000 ' men. has captured the city of E’Riad in central Arabia. Abdul Aziz Ben Feysul entered the city by stratagem at night with 50 followers. These meh rode to the palace and killed the governor of E'Riad and 30 of his retainers. The garrison of the city then surrendered, whereupon the army of Abdul Aziz Ben Feysul entered. It is believed that the Wahabi dynasty is endeavoring to regain its supremacy and overthrow Ibu Rashid, the ameer of Nejd and conquer the latter city. Many tribes are flocking to the banner of Abdul Aziz Ben Feysul. Many Miners Buried. Telluride. Col., March I.—The most terrible snowslide accident ever known in Colorado caused the deaths oi from 30 to 75 men at the Liberty Bell mine on Smuggler Mountain yesterday. Nearly all the buildings of fbe Liberty 801 l mine were carried down by the slide, all the books which show the number and names of the men employed being lost, so that the deathlist can hardly be known for many days, possibly not until the rescuers have removed the immense quantity of snow, rocks and logs from the canyon where the victims He buried.
