'Don't you kaow that that is private prop erty, and that you have no light to naal flats it" "Is that so?" said he with the revolver.

Lasi Friday night the Hampton College Students played to a good house In this city. Those who attended expressed them selves as amply paid. A bettor troup has not been here, They gave as much genu ine music and enjoyment as could well be crowded into one night. The Itslian can play on his harp.the German on the piano, the Spaniard can dance a fandango, 'and the Yankee can talk you into a bargain, but commend us te the darkey for genu- ne chin music, and to the Hampton Col lege Students above any we have heard . Their bass would have made a lion crawl nto his den, their soprano, alto and teuor wore good, and Billy Speed, the mixture of all, takes the wheat field. Their voices are not cultivated, but tone, expression and harmony, aro all tha'r, and that's music, This troupe deserves big houses. Ho Iodfe is io session this week at Pert land.

Ist Thursday afternoon agentleman of this city heard two boys.of woil advan ced ages for boys, coneoctiog a plan f,r getting their fill from a luscious looking cherry tree, the coming evening when the shades of night should have fallen suffi ciently. Consider this scene one. After the evtning train had come in, aud when moat people were courting sleep, these two youths stole cautiously toward the coveted fruit.t liruked the tree, and began devouring cberrJea by the handful, in whet they supposed waa com pletc security. Consider this scene two. Suddenly from the yard hose a stream of a ater at full force struck the boys on their heads, bodies etc., causing cemfu nion, w hich tumbled thorn promiscuously to the ground. Like heroes ia dime novels they made a break for the fence but one had only made three steps when a whole pail of water came full in his fice "Won 00 oh !" Then another took him in the back of bis neck, and about thia time the other young man was in the clutches of another conspirator against the youths, who al lowed him to depart without further pun ishment. This rray be considered aa scene three. It is safe to say that there will be no more cherry mealing in that yard. All cherry tbiefs should be treated in the aame way and they would soon be ex terminated. A boy need enly aak any one who has a well filled tree, and he can obtain plenty, but let him attempt to steal them, and wo to him if caught. solire Tbal Frank Daunals is prepared to make ever and to repair spring and wool matreasra aad lounges at Daunals new factory west and The best evaporator in the market is tho ajoinmg Judge Strahan s.
