TWO ORPHANS.

A fair audience was at the Opera House last night, drawn by the low prices and tbe popularity of a play which it seems the public will not willingly let die. It is a play which has great interest independent of any merit of tbe players, bat in this case it was a meritorious company. It was well put on the stage, the scenery was good and appropriate, tbe costumes were elegant and the personnel of the company genteel in appearance and easy of manner.

Miss Josie Wilmere filled the character of the blind Louise with much ability and that of Henriette by Miss Baker was well defined and acceptable. Much interest attached to tbe well rendered parts of La Frochsrd by Mr?, Jennie Wells and of PicRrd by Jos. M. Humphrys, a very pleasant comedian.

Mr, H. S. Duffield in the dual parts of Pierre and the Chevalier evenly sustained them and exhibited decided ability.

Though the support was of varied quality, it was all good enoagh to maintain the interest of the melo-drama, which was not allowed to flag. Those who have yet to see the first performance of the "Two Orphans" can see it to-night presented creditably.

IAJCIA DE LAMMERMOOS.

Emma Abbott will appear to-morrow (Wednesday) night in her great role of "Lucia." The opera is the bright particular gem of all the great' tragic works of the lyric stage, and the prima donna has made it the strong card of her r«portoire. From New York and Boston to the cities of the West, she has given it with the same cast of artists, Conly taking the part of Baymond, Stoddard that of Henry Ashton, aed Fabrini appearing as Edgar. The wonderful ro" mance on which the opera is founded has been preserved in the music, and the thrilling interest of the tragedy receives a deeper expression in the gorgeous drama.

Emma Abbott made such a sensational hit with Lucia that her famous mad scene in the fourth act has been pronounced finer than lite conceptions of all other artists. She studied tbe real phaeis of insanity in the asylums and gives tbe tragic picture with vivid realistic art.

Lucia is one of the great works that combine the most fascinating melody with the grand harmonies of the choris and orchestra, and its beauties have taken such a hold in the popular heart that the public anticipates its reappearance every year with increased interest.

Indianapolis Journal: The proposed change on tbe P., C. & St. L. and the Vandalia, by which the fast mail train, No. 6, was to be run in two sections, has been abandoned for tbe present, tbe limited express mania having blown over, at least until the spring time tables take effect.

Three and eight-tenths miles of track are reported to have been laid in one day en the Southern Pacific extension from El Paso eastward.

NEW YORK. Jan. 16.—Gould will not return until Friday.* His following are exercised and uneasy. They say that Gould keeps himself unusually well informed in regard to what is fgcing oh in New York but withholds advice. Some of his intimates say he is waiting to see whether the public will come in on the support which the Vanderbilt party is giving to the market. If they do he will announce himselt as a bull, otherwise not.

A PRETTY GOOD SCHEME.

CHICAGO, January 16.—A St. Paul special says: Six prominent capitalists of St, Paul and Minneapolis, including Senator Windom, J. B. Gilfillan, of Minneapolis, E H. Bly, of Bismarck, and Mr. Hobart, of the Northern Pacific, have agreed with the Northern Pacific to build a standard gauge from a point on the Northern Pacific, nearest the Park, to the Geysers and National Yellow Stone Park, or, to speak more definitely, forty miles cf road outside the Government Park reservation, and forty miles within it, the coat to be $20,000 per mile, and allowing for contingencies,nearly $32,060,000 are to be put np by tbe six, as an earnest of good faith,-and the Northern Pacific will then furnish the money to build and equip the road,taking a mortgage as the security.

NEW FREIGHT SCHEDULE.

NEW YORK, January 16.—The New York Central and the New York,^ Lake Erier and Western railway companies issued a schedule of rates lor freight thla morning, on the basis of 30 cents per 100 pounds for first clasi to Chicago. The following is the schedule:

55. 5 .» a si

90 25 20 15 41 34 28 23 28 23 18 14

28 24 19 36 31 29 88 82 26 19 25 20 16 12

At the offices of the Baltimore & Ohio and Pennsylvania Bailroad Companies it was said that the rate cf 60 cents per hundred pounds for first class freight to Chicago was being maintained but.it is understood that the fast freight lines in connection therewith might be reduced to make terms with shippers. ..

REDUCTION OF RATE8.

-j-

BOSTON, January 16.—Instead of receiving advices to advance Western freight rates this morning, the agents of the different fast freight lines at this point were considerably surprised at the reception of orders to make quite a seri* ous reduction in the schedule of rates lately in force The new rates, in comparison with t^ie schedule of Jainuary 1st, and ante-war period, are as follows, to Chicago, per 100 poundf: Class. New Rate. Jan. 1st. Anto-war Period. 1st Ma 45c 4, We 2nd......u.i 2D 1 32 60 3rd 20 2fl 60 4th IS 19 40

The Central Vermont and Grand Trunk lines are 10c, 8c, 6c and 4c per hundred lower than the above rates. This action of the railroads, in view oi the movement to close up the war, can be accounted for only upon the supposition that it is intended to meet the extensive cutting which has lately been going on, and that the new rates will lemain in force until after the numerous contracts now in force at extremely low rates have expired, after which the tariff agreed upon by the Trunk lines will probably be enforced. It is understood that the agents are now under imperative orders not to make any cuts lewer that the schedule rates received this morning.

DIFFERENTIAL BATES.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 16.—The resolution adopted by the Cbnmber of Commerce unanimously to-day, and given in charge of the delegates from that body to -the National Board of Trade, are sweeping in tbeir demand in favor of the right claimed by the Pennsylvania and the B. & O. to carry grain and other freights at a difference of rates, based on tbeir shorter lin«s. After quoting from a pamphlet issued by Commissioner Fink in 1878, to show that the average difference of rates between New York and Cincinnati and Baltimore and Cincinnati, based on distance alone, wonld be 17£ cents, the resolutions declare that in the judgment of the Chamber of Commerce of Cincinnati, the difference between tbe rates of transportation from Cincinnati to Baltimore and Philadelphia and from Cincinnati to New York, as heretofore fixed by agreement of the Trunk lines, is founded upon the Correct principle of transportation, and has been justified by actual experience during tho years tbat snch differential rates have been in force. Tbey also declare that it is of vital importance that there be competing seaports for Western commerce, and as each has certain advantages it unwise for railroad companies to attempt to break down all competitors to favor New York, whicb, from its advantages of harbor, must in any event secure the larger share of the Western trade. The resolutions were carried Eaet tonight by tbe delegation to the National Board of Trade. They also took with them a resolution favoring tbe deepening of the channel at the port of Baltimore, and the opening of a ship canal between Delaware and Chesapeake bays at the expense of the General Government.

A GOOD AH GONE «m

Tbe (Jutxpected Deatb uf Ralph L, Thompson en Sanday Afternoon. At half past twelve o'clock on Sunday, Ralph L. Thompson, tbe well known miller, died at his residence on south Fourth street, after a brief illness, the fatality of which was entirely unexpected. For two or three weeks he had been complaining niih rheumatism, but only on the Friday previous to bis death he had visited his mill, and his brother, Dr. J. C. Thompson had visited him on Sanday, but an hour or so before tbe sad event, without suspecting the fatal illness. At half past twelve-o'clock the disease, with that suddenness whioh marks its fatal strokes, went to the heart, and the honored citizen was no more.

Balph L. Thompson was born at Bolton, England, July 30th, 1817, and consequently was in his sixty-fifth year. He came to

thiB

county in the twelfth year of

his age, lived for some time in Cincinnati, and later in Dayton, in which latter place he was married. He came to this city in 1850, and has been a continuous resident ever since, engaged in the milling business. His business record is an important part of tbe best history of tbe manufacturing and commercial enterprise of cur city. He has been one of the prominent citizens of the place and identified with nearly every movement which has served to advance the beet interests of the borne of bis adoption.

He will be sadly missed in the Baptist cbnrcb, where says a writer in the Gazette, "he has been for years a veritable pillar in the Baptist church to which he belonged and toward the spiritual advancement and tbe material welfare of which he has labored unceasingly and contributed with characteristic liberality. Into every plan for advancing the cause of religion which commended itself to his reason he enlarged with energy ami-la-bored with zeal. His life was lived in accordance with his views and in what he did as well as in what he said he was at all times and in all places a Christian gentleman without fear and above reproach."

The deceased was a member in high standing of tbe Masonic fraternity, and tbe Knight Templars, will condact tbe funeral ceremonies, which will take place from the Baptist church to-morrow afternoon at three o'clock.

Mr. Thompson held an insurance policv in the Eqnitable Life Insurance company, for $20,000.

The annual meeting of Prairie City Building, Loan, Fnnd and qjsvings Association is to be held to-morrow evening at L. G. Hager*s office.

Special to Indianapolis Sentinel: RICHMOND, IND. Jon 15.—The body of David H. Smith, a farmer residing twelve miles northwest of this city, was found in a well in hisjbarn yard, lasl evening, with two bullet holes in the temple, under nineteen feet of water, and partially covered with large bowlders. He had been missing nearly two weeks and the action *of the family aroused the suspicions of the neighbors, who instituted a thorough search.

The persons who made the search called at Smith's house yesterday, stating that they wiBhed to make an investigation. They were toW. that they were at liberty to do so, as tbe family was very much concerned ahout the missing man.' A committee of the men Was appointed, and a search was made from garret to cellar,but no trace of Smith was found.. They were about to abandon all further investigation when some one of the partysug that they examine an old- well wbich stood about one hundred yards from the house, and used only for watering cattle. On lowering a chain and hook into tbe well, they pulled out a veiy small rag. Abetter "means of Arranging the ho(& and chain was mentioned, and two of Smith's Bons aided in fixing them. On again lowering the chain and withdrawing it, a leg ofa pair of pants was brought out. On this discovery Smith's boys went to the house. It was then almost certain that Smith was in the well, .and on again lowering the chain they brought forth Smith's body.

Smith's wife and two sons were immediately put.under arrest, and it is now proven beyond doubt that the nineteen-year-old son shot him in the temple twice as he sat by the kitchen fire, and that an elder brother helped drag the body to the barn lot and throw it into the well, while the wife

and prevented the smaller children from leaving the jroom in which she had them until ail traces of the heinous crime had been covered up.

An angry mob gathered around the house last night and threatened to lynch the three, but a heavy guard had been placed over them by j.he authorities, and tne excited populace was thus prevented from carrying its threats into execution.

The circumstantial evidence of the guilt is conclusive. THE DAUGHTER'S STATEMENT.

The little daughter, Feven years old, the only witness who saw or heard the bloody transaction, says: "Mother locked me in a bed-room. I then heard two pistol shots and a scuffle in the kitchen, followed by two more shots in the back yard. I tried to get out but mother pushed me back apd told me to stay there." r»

Tbe boys admit the mother hacf not sustained the relation of a wife to the deceased tor years, and th$t they tedly repea had fights with him. She had forced him to deed his farm to her, but he. had afterwards recovered pait of it.

A pistol purchased by tbe youngest son a few days before the murder can not be found and he can not account for it.

EVIDENCE OF GUILT.

A bullet hole was found in the kitchen ceiling, blood on his chair and blood on the gate post through which they passed to the barn. Tbe boy who did the shooting is bold and defiant, but the others are beginning to weakea. A thousand persons flocked to the scene of the tragedy to-day, and the excitement is on the increase. The guard may prove insufficient to prevent the mob taking the law in its own hands.
