The safe in Shedd Marshall's general merchandise store was blown open Wednesday night, and $100, more or leas, a silver watch belonging to Mr. Marshall, and some trinkets of not much intrinsic value, taken therefrom. The job was neatly and skillfully done, one of the large doors being lifted from its hinges, completely demoralizing the lock The burglar-proof vault in the safe Ws left unlocked, no money or valuables being kept in it.

Entrance to the store was effected through the window in the rear end of the building on the south side. The screen was removed and the window pried open, with tools filched from some of the shops in town. The work all through showed the skill of experts. Several heard the report of the explosion, as they supposed, Mrs. Shedd in particular, who had a premonition of what was being done, but she did not communicate her suspicions to her husband.

A large and attentive crowd was in attendance both evenings to applaud and cheer on the disputants whenever a telli ng point was made on either side.

The free trade side of the question evidently had the best of the argument the first night, but their opponents retrieved themselves the second night, and iu the opinion of protectionists "got away" with theii opponents.

He had a good audience and sung well but he never will "enthuse" the western people until he will connect with his selection of old songs some new selections expressive of the progressive American. His song for the soldier, 'We've drank from the same canteen," was good and highly appreciated.

That is right, always sing your best songs for the soldier. But he who ignores the children and csabbath school, leaves tender spot in the hearts of our people untouched. Many of his selections were too foreign, but were well rendered. His articulation is good the blend ing of harmonious sounds to form melody, fine, and his touch of the pathetic chord, a success. The audience seem ed wrell pleased with the entertainment.

Prof. Jas. Clark, the famous sing er, appeared at the unnsuan cnurcn Tuesday night as per announcement. His ballads and melodies fully met the expectations of the large audience, and it was indeed a rare treat for the lover of harmony "and concord of sweet sound as expressed by the human voice divine." Other voices may have great er compass than his, but few are sweet er aud better calculated to please a mixed audience. His plaintive ballads were heart-touching, while an occa sional Irish or Yankee song gave variety to the "evening of soug." All ap preciated the singing except the babies, who appeared to be numerically strong and rebelliously inclined in truth, they were an element of discord during the entire evening.
