AMUSEMENTS.

Atttlee.

The performance of Mamzelle by the celebrated artiste of opera boufie fame, assisted by an admirable company, was most enjoyable and unique. Light French opera had been the nsual medium for the display of the bright and gay comedy of such comediennes as Aimee.

Offenbach's and similar operas, with light music and witty lines, when given by Aimee, Toetee and other Parisiennes were immensely popular. Aimee can not *aing forever, but fortunately, she can show her still brilliant and sprightly power in such a clever comedy as Jessop & Gill's Mam'zelle. As Toinette the little milliner, she was a characteristically French girl, who knows the world, especially the men in it, like a book, but is fully able to take care of herself. With her laughing eyes and pretty teeth, the tricks of gesture and grimace, her entirely natural assumption of mirth and mischief, and the taking of the audience into her especial confidence, she could not help being charming and enjoyable, while- it was hard to believe that this lively little woman was executing that same little kick fifteen and twenty years'ago. The Spanish and Italian' songs did not a aterialixe, but the "Pretty as a Picture"- did, which was sung with archness and grace. Aimee's singing is more in style than voice though that is sweet Her English is remarkably correct in pronanciation, though the French accent is so pronounced. Her "Baub" is the finest diminutive for Robert now in use. Her dancing steps are judiciously and economically used. Her costumes are pretty and her taste in slippers and silken hose undeniable.

The supporting company was good in every case. Mr Newton Chisnell as Col. Hiram Pprter, the manager, gave a character i^hose broad and unctuous humor is not often equalled. Russell Bassett, an old friend, as Tarlton Tupper, appears to improved advantage. Each of the company deserves special mention for spirited and natural work. The scene, when members of the company appeared in different places among the audionce, is beyond description, and created exciting fun. Like all the plav, it was the perfection of naturalness, and the colTequies between that ridiculous Poster, who is a dramatic Micawber, and the interrupters in the house were] as funny as novel.

The Aimee troupe deserves to be held in friendly remembrance for f* combination of favors. It gave a good play, with a company far above the average, and an expensive star, -at seventy-five cents for reserved seats. The audience was ofttn convulsed with laughter, and always in a hilarious mood. There was ^n unusual stampede at the close of the play by that class of attendants whose time is worth money.

The Typo's Ball.

The entertainment given by the Typographical Union at Germania nail last night, as had been anticipated, was an exceedingly enjoyable and successful affair throughout A large number was in attendance, and dancing to tbe superb music of the Ringgold orchestra, was indulged in until a late hour.

Dick T. Morgan.

Under

the heading "An honor well

bestowed" the following appeared in the Garden City Irrigator: "Hon. Dick T. Morgan received notice Thursday that he had been appointed attorney for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railroad. Mr. Morgan has been in the state only a few months and it is quite complimentary to his ability and standing as a lawyer that he shonld be elevated to a position so prominent and of so much responsibility thus early. It is an honor well bestowed, however, and Mr. Morgan will prove his capabilities to all concerned."

ROBERTS AND HENNING.

The Feeling Against tbe Former to Parke County—How Hcnnlng 1s Regarded.

This morning John R. Courtney returned from Rockville, says the Crawfordsville Argus of Thursday, where he had been to see hia client, Charley Roberts, now confined in jail on three indictments. The notorious Charles seems to be very uneasy about his fate, but is willing to take chances. He contemplated giving himself U} before he was arrested, and visited this city in October after the election and had a consultation with Mr. Courtney on that anbject The feeling againBt Roberts in Parke county is very strong, and he will most likely ask for a change of venue. In case he does we would recommend Montgomery county as the most likely of any county where he dhld secure, justice. There is no feeling against him here, and having an abl? judge and bar he could certainly have a fair trial. There is a widespread butferroneous opin ion prevailing down there that we would claim exhorbitant fees for a trial of a case brought here from Parke county. This is all a mistake. He denies most emphatically having shed any man's bloouj, and says he could have escaped when arrested at Danville, but he would have had to. kill some of the offioers. His trial is set for March 4.

Col. Courtney also looked after the evidence in the Henning case, and says that Rockville will make a Strong fight against him. Henning, he says, occupied about such a position in Rockville as Colonel Clark does here, only he has a little more sense.

WHEELING'S NEW NALL CO.

A Co-operative Started—Carml, I1L, to be Visited for a Location. The Wheeling Intelligencer of Wednes day contained the following:

The books were opened yesterday to receive subscriptions to the capital stock of the Co-operative nail manufacturing cqmpanv organized by the leadibg nailers here, who are idle on account of the lockout in the local mills. The handsome sum of $10,000 was subscribed to the stock yesterday, certainly an auspicious start. This sum may prove to be all that is requited by the company, though the books are still open. The citizens of the town of Carmi, III, a place not far from Belleyille, have offered the company a location, five acres of ground, as a donation, and in addition express their willingness to subscribe $40,000 to the capital stock of the company.

The gentlemen who are interested in the project say that the sum already secured, $50,000, is enough money to build and start a factory of sixty or seventy nail machines. If the company concludes to locate at Garmi no further subscriptions will be needed. A committee of prominent nailers, stockholders in the company, will shortly visit Carmi to investigate the desirability of the location. If everything proves satisfactory the company will build at Carmi. If not, another location will be chosen. Several advantageous offers have been received: At any rate a number of the best nailers of this city and vicinity will leave and seek homes in a new locality as soon as the company's plans aredefinitelysettled.

^':A Peculiar Damage Suit DECATUB, 111., January 21.—George Brown, an attorney of Decatur, is the plaintiff in a enrious damage suit now on trial in the circuit court. The defendants are the Chicago, St. Louis & Pittsburg railroad and the Pullman Car company, and the action is to recover damages fixed at $50,000, growing out of the alleged negligence of the defendants named. Brown's wife died in May last and the body was embalmed and seat to Zanesville O., by way of Indianapolis, accompanied by Mr. Brown and the father of. the deceased, also four other relatives. The party were asleep in the palace car as the train passed through Indianapolis, and in soipe manner the corpse was put off and left at the depot, the relatives going on through to Columbus. The corpse remained at Indianapolis twelve hours, and when it finally arrived at its destination the remains were in a bad state the time of burial had to be changed, and friends could not look at the remains. The defendants claim that they performed their duties and are not guilty oI negligence. The case occasions much interest because ot its peculiar circumstance!.

Big Ice Gorge.

WHEBLING^W. Va., January 21.—A big ice gorge between here and Parkersburg, which has kept river men in astate of fear and trembling for the past few days, broke this morning about 5 o'clock, and reached Parkersburg at 4 p. m. The gorge extended altogether about twentveight miles. There are in the gorge, now going down the river, about 20,000 crossties, which escaped from Middle island creek last week by the lifting ot the boom. The towboat Ark and her entire fleet of barges, excepting one, which •aent to the bottom at Bat and 'Grape Island, were caught in the escarping gorge, and sank at Grape Island. The towboat Hawk, which was also caught in the gorge just above Sistersville, succeeded in making the shore, and suffered but little, if any harm.

Entombed Men Thought to be Alive.

WILKESBABBE,

Pa., January 21.—It

being still believed by the relatives of the entombed men at the Nanticoke mines that some of them may possibly be alive, it has beta decided to sink a six inch bore hole over tbe spot where the men, if alive, are supposed to be. so that relief can be given them. It will take about twenty days to sink the hole. The experienced miners believe that the men have been dead for some time, but the hole will be sunk to satisfy the relatives of the buried men.

A Determined Couple.

LOTJISVTLI.E, January 21.—About two months ago W. P. McGrath and Miss iLiliie M* Gray, both minors, eloped. The bride's parents seised her and would not allow her husband to see her.
