Bill Groves, of Dallas, and Mar shal Bohanon, of Independance, captured Bennewitz, the escaped Dutch jail bird, on Roy CBverly's place, about half way between Sa lem and Dallas, last Saturday. They inquired at Byerlev's house if he had seen Bennewitz j and hav ing received a negative answer, started away, and shortly discover ed fresh tracks. Following them up, they captured the little Dutch man in the brush, and took him to Dallas, where they again lodged him in the "jail" he had twice so easily escaped from. If the au thorities want to keep him there this time they will have to tie him don to his bed, and have the county commissioners take turn about sitting on him. When cap tured Bennewitz had gotten rid of the shackle which mast at . first have hampered his progress. He said he picked the lock and left it on a stump about a mile from Dal las, but this may be doubted. It is thought Bennewitz when cap tured was on his way to Salem to make application for quarters in a jail that would exercise his ingen uity just a trifle in getting out of. Salem Statesman.

The public will have reason to be pleased to hear that this favor ably known company of musicians win return to this city and give a performance on Saturday evening next. Their performance here last December was a clean and enjoya ble one. The professor enjoys the distinction of being the only col ored graduate from the Cincinnati college of music, as well as the only colored professor of music ever in the Cincinnati public schools. As a student, he was earnest and painstaking, having a mark of nine in a maximum of ten. For two years Professor Mc Kanlass studied in Leipsic, giving his attention to violin, theory, harmony and composition. The professor's traveling represents sixteen years ot his life, and dur ing that time he has visited Eng land, France and Australia. His musical specialties are new and original, his feat of playing two cornets at once, and also that of playing on eight different instrn ments at one and the same time, being original with him. Taken all in all, the professor is certainly a musical genius, one who com bines a natural ear for music with many vears of hard study. His banjo playing is of such high order that he is justly called the king banjoist, while his handling of the violin has earned him the title of the "Negro Ole Bull." His col ored specialty company has been organized for three years, and gives a first-class entertainment. Will Sleet 'io-ditv. Mrs. Pres.
