The slick sharper still makes himself felt. At Danville, Ind., last Monday, Mr. Asa White, a well-known farmer of Lincoln township, was fleeced out of! $200 by confidence men. They lured their victim into the trap by representing that they desired an agent for a pat-1 ent-right which they owned, and when! he wnt with them to a quiet room to ar- 1 range matters, they induced him to en-

Aunts, Seamen, Marines, etc. Every person, it would seem, who at-

tended the entertainment, was agreeably surprised and well entertained. The modest, unassuming manner, and sweet, well-trained voice of “Josephine” was all that could be desired in the part. “Little Buttercup,” in voice, act and make-up, was nearer professional than amateur. “Hebe” ably seconded “Sir Joseph Porter,” putting both grace and vivacity in the part. “Sir Joseph Porter, K. C. B.,” was pompous, padded and perfect in his part—his recitations were well-rendered both in voice and manner, j and his singing was good. “Captain Corcoran” in command II. M. S. Pinafore, commanded the undivided attention of both house and crew, by his fine ren- 1 dition of the part; while “Ralph Rackstraw, who really has the most ditlieult character in tho opera to render artisti-1 cally, acted his part nicely. The parts of “Dick Deadoye,” “Bill Bobstny” and Bob. Becket” were well brought forward, Hopkins doing the “Deadeye” business exceedin ;ly well for an amateur performer. Tho chorus was carefully trained and merited tho many compliments uttered. The fact is, great credit should be given Miss Carrie Woik, Miss Helen Hathaway and Mr. George Hathaway for tiiu high degree cf discipline and perfection shown by the entire crew of Pinafore,” which is solely duo to their unceasing labor, patience and persever

The form remained, but there was now No soul our love to share; Farewell I with weeping hearts we said. Child of our love and care. <■0 to thy rest, fair child; Uo to thy dreamless bed. While yet so gentle, undefiled. With blessings on thy head. Fresh roses in thy hand, liuds on thy pillow laid— Uasto from this, dark and fearful land Where flowers so quickly fade, Because thy smile was fair— Thy lip and eyo so bright, Ilecaiisu thy loving cradle care Was such a dear delight, Shull love, with weak embrace, Thy upreared wing detain? No, gentle angel, seek thy place Amid the cherub train. X. s. Tlmyt'r, Kansas.

Eihtor Stab:

I sec. through the papers, that there are persons in Indiana begging for the suffering people of “bleeding Kansas.” Now, my advice to the people of Indiana is to keep their money at home until they know where it goes to. There is plenty to eat and wear in Kansas, and lots to spare. Now, Mr. Editor, the truth is, there are a good many people in Kansas who came here from the east expecting to make a living without work, and that class of people are in need of aid. But all who have made an effort have plenty and to spare. In the extreme western part of Kansas it has been very dry, and they have raised nothing. But let them pick up their little beds and walk back into civilization. The Western part of Kansas is set. apart for grasshoppers, Indians, etc.

A Case of llyslropiiofcia. New Albany, September 29.—yester-

day, Mollie Carpenter, an educate 1 ! and highly respected colored girl of this city, aged 19, was attacked with all the symptoms of hydrophobia in an aggravated lorm. She was assisting in the washing at the residence of Mrs. Mary Cooper Moore, when, on suddenly plunging her hands into the wash water, she was seized wi‘h nervous shuddciing, and commenced shrieking, “It’s killing me! It’s killing me!” at tho same time seizing hold ot her left arm with the right hand and screaming from pain in the hand, arm and head. About a year ego she was bitten by a d'>g in the left hand, receiving a severe wound. Mrs. Moore's daughter, who was alone in tho house at the tinio, ran to the room in which Miss Carpenter was at work. Just as r.he reached the door she was seized by the shoulders by Miss Carpenter, who still shrieked at tho top of her voice. Suddenly Miss Carpenter made a snap with her teeth ut Miss Moore,catching heron the arm and leaving the impression of her teeth, in black and blue colors, but not breaking the skin. Mi^s Moore broke away from the frantic girl and fled to the street and gave the alarm. Men soon arrived, and found Miss Carpenter lying upon the lloor in the kitchen, still shrieking, and the white froth issuing from her mouth. She was secured and taken to her home in a carriage, and medical aid called. The physician, Dr. Burney, who had cauterized and dressed the wound when Miss Carpenter received it, and who is very skilled in his profession, treated the case in such a manner us to re ;uco the mental and nervous excitement considerably; the girl continues to suffer up to this evening with extreme nervous irritation and pain in the wounded arm, nock and bead, all of which are much swollen. Tho doctor is apprehensive the worst may occur, but still hopes to bring the patient through in safety. At the time the girl was bitten there were many dogs suspected of being nfiected by hydrophobia being killed in the city, and ever since Miss Carpenter lias been morbidly apprehensive of an attack of the dread disease. !t is believed that the attack from which she is now prostrated is only premonitory of tho horrible death that

awaits her.
