TwOjNew Water Wells.

Superintendent Crosby of the water works, shut off the supply from the city at noon today in order that the two fine new wells which have just been brought in might be connected with the mains.

The horse came down Pennsylvania street at a rapid rate but was caught and held by Mr. Luther Larribee who happened to be at the Masonic hall hitch rack. It was a brave and fortunate catch as the horse was going fast. Mrs. Elliott was holding the lines so far back she could not check the horse and it would soon have been past any control and serious dauger would have resulted. Mrs. Elliott is visiting her brother, Wm. Fields, just west of the city and Mr. Elliott who is now night operator at Knightstown comes over every morning.

May Smith Robbing in "Little Trixie" Will Occupy tlie Boards.

Will A. Hough, manager of the Opera House, has secured for next Saturday, April 25, the clever little actress, "May Smith Robbins, who promises many new features in h«r bright musical comedy of "Little Irixie." The play is one that is particularly lively. It has a strong eomedy element, delightfully interwoven with sentiment and pathos. There are several exciting climaxes and the entire performance is well suited to the tastes of the patrons of this popular place of amusement. Miss Robbins, as a singer and dancer, has made both fame and fortune during her tours, and has surrounded herself with a company numbering twelve people, each of whom participates in the musical numbers and appear in the twenty-two specialties that are ^introduced during the action of the play. "Little Trixie" is known to the patrons of this house, having played to very large audiiences when here before, and doubtless none who enjoyed it then will feel like letting the chance of repeating the pleasure slip by unaccepted. Miss Robbins' resemblance to the famous "Lotta" is said to be very striking in much of her work. She impersonates characters with great tact ahd has those winning ways which so please an audience. She is a bonny little lady, and her company is commended everywhere as one of remark* able individual strength..

Captain George Tagae.

The following resolutions were adopted at a special meeting of the Samuel H. Dunbar Post, No. 92, G. A. R.

Again the recall is sounded. Once more the roll-call has shown a comrade "Present or accounted for." Captain George Tague, Co. B. 99th Ind. Inf. is dead.

We all fought long enough to learn that death is not the worst thing to come to a soldier. When "missing," spoken ia tones of whispered doubt, as answer for a comrades absence, a misty unrest looms up before us. Uncertainty as to a warriors fate brings to his fellows vis ions far worse than an honorable death so long as tbe mystery of that fate is unsolved. Worse than even this, the very worst that can happen to a soldier, is dishonor. It never touched our fallen comrade, nor marred in one single instance his record. He passed through all his struggles, through the flame aud fire of battle, through the suffering and sickness of along life. Whose great usefulness was impaired only by the grievous hurts received through devotion to his country. Through the sin and sorrow that surrounds us all, with the same calm heroism, the same cheerful endurance, the same sweet patience with which he fronted all trials. As he came out of all contact so he went down to death, without stain or taint upon his garments. His heart was indeed as fair as faith, as pure as truth.

Resolved, That by the death of Captain George C. Tague. Samuel H. Dunbar Post No. 92 G. A. R. has lost one of its purest aud noblest members. One who in the prime of his superb manhood was an ideal soldier.

Resolved, That in his death, the nation which claimed his allegience, has lost a defender whose courage was equalled only by his loyalty, in the hour of its peril.

Resolved, That this city, county and State have lost a most trustworthy citizen.

Resolved, That his church, the erown and glory of his earthly life has lost a member whose presence was a continual benediction, whose example must prove a perpetual inspiration.

Resolved, That his family has iofct a most lovable husband and father, a loss, the sacred depths of which we dare not try to fathom, or express, but we do tender them our sincerest sympathy and the assurance that we feel that the gates of Heaven area little nearer, that its doors are more widely open to them and us, because he has passed beyond them.

Resolved, That a copy of this memorial
