At tbb Chmhct large audionce wm In
attendance last evening to witness the perform
ance of Tit Field of the Cloth of Gold by
tne burlesque companj beaded by the lively
Mrs. J. A. Ontcs. This piece bad each a long
and successful run when It was produced at the
Dbeonnt last season, that the pnblic are familiar
with 1U characteristics, and ft Is not necessary
for vs to ko Into particulars with regard to it.
The burlesque itself Is neither better nor worse
than come others that have been brought out in
this city of late, but the filling in is more at
tractive, and it makes a first-rate variety per
formance. The present troupe is a good one,
but some of the performers who established
themselves in the favor of the public last season
are not equalled by the new comers. The vari
es features, however, that are introduced, such
- the Leon gymnasts, the cow-bell ringers, the
burlesque "Japs," the "tumbleronleon" man,
and others, aid In excitinglaughtcrand applause.
The troupe contains a number of excellent
vocalists, and the singing is more than usually
good.
The Field of the Cloth of Cold will be repeated
this evening.
At tub Walmt Mr. W. H. Bailey will havo
a benefit this evening, when Old Head and
Vcung Jleart and Jonathan Bradford will be
Ierformcd. Mr. Charles Rend will recite Patrick

Dcltcher Gentleman." Mr. Bailey is an excel
lent actor, and we hope that his benefit will be
a success.
To-morrow evening Mr. T. J. Hemphill, the
business manager, will present his claims to tho
favorable notice of the public. Jxndon Assu
ranre will be followed by a song in character
by Mr. Chopman, entitled "The Teetotal So
ciety," and the performance will conclude with
The Seriou Family. Mr. Hemphill has been
an efficient caterer for the amusement of the
pnblic, and the success of the Walnut under his
management is an assurance that his efforts are
appreciated by the public. We hope that he
will have a crowded bouse to-morrow.
On Thursday Mr. Simon llassler will present
a first-rate bill of attractions for his benefit, on
which occasion his numerous friends will of
course turn out In full force. -
Mr. Lewis Morrison's benefit is announced for

this evening.
Ole Bull will give a grand concert at the
Academy of Music this evening, when a first-rate

that the Philadelphia public have an opportunity

this concert will doubtless attract a full house.
Mr. Bull will be assisted by Miss Ilattle Saf
ford. Mr. William Maedona'ld, aud Mr. Edward
Hoffman.

E T IT INTGLLIUGNCG,
Needs Investigation. The police of the
Seventeenth district have concluded to report to
the Board of Health as a nnlsanco the premises
No. (528 Alaska street. Within the past three
weeks no less than four persons have died sud
denly therein, the last death being that of one
George Franks, which occurred about 7 o'cIock
last evening. The poor degraded creatures who
infest this neighborhood look upon the parti
cular den named with a sort of holy horror.
Some of them state that a disease has been en
gendered from a late Almshouse Inmate dying
in the den from a fever which she contracted.
Others assert that the deaths are the result of
a disease known as the "relapsing fever."
Whether these statements are true or not re
mains to be seen. . That the Board of Health
should act speedily we think the above facts
will warrant.
House Robber Captured. On the 22d of
February last, theresidence of a Mrs. O'Donnell,
on Thirty-flrst street, near Oxford, was entered
and robbed of a lot of silverware, wearing ap
parel, etc. Suspicion pointed strongly to two
parties.oneof whom, Robert Flood, alias Haekett,
. was arrested, tried and convicted for the deed.
The other party managed to keep out of the
way until yesterday, when he was captured at
Thirteenth and Callowhill streets, by Officer Mc
Garry. The prisoner's name Is James Dowdol;
he is also known by the aliases Butcher and
Reddy. This afternoon he will be given a hear-
leg before Alderman Kerr at the Central Station.

"ijoison" called whisky to deprive him of his
small share of common sense. Returning home,
etc., and finally attempted to smash the had of
bis wife. The cries of the poor woman attracted
the attention of a police officer, who took nenry
before Alderman Heins, by whom he was held
In SOW iittU to answer.
Highway Robbery Some three or four
vlchts niro a chap well known to our police
force, named John McGeary, attacked a stranger
in Acorn alley aud robbed him lot his gold watch.
1 he case was at once reported to the Fifth dis
trict force, and a warrant issued for the arrest of
the culprit. Last night McGeary was captured

serve squad, and taken before Alderman Quirk,
where a charge of drunkenness and malicious
mischief was preferred against him. He was
committed to answer.

THE GUILLOTISE.
The Adjournment of the tsrlnlatare Again
marts Ike Machinery
The axe has again been set In motion by
Mayor Fox, and the fortunate Republicans who
have thus far held their olllces through the "Ins
pending Metropolitan Police bill," may receive,
and are now momentarily expecting, their "ticket
of leave." This morning George Calianan.a detec
tive officer, who has served the Interests of the
city under the various administrations well and
faithfully for the last twenty-live years, was
notified that his services were no longer re
quired. This action will add nothing to the credit ot
Mayor Fox. Mr. Callanan is long and favorably
known to almost all onr bankers and banking
institutions, and has done more to prevent rob
beries in this particular line than any other
ofllcer on the force. He has now reached an
advanced age, and to turn him out to battle with
the world isa oniething for which ho is not pre-
pared
The secret of this movement Is tbls, James J.
Flaherty, who keeps a drinking saloon at
Eleventh and Locust streets, a good working
Democrat, and n member of the Eighth Ward
Executive Committee, has been striving night
and day to supplant Lieutenant Campbell. Lieu
tenant Campbell is also a good worker, politi
cally, nnd to remove him would only have raised
a counter-fight. A compromise was therefore
fixed on, and Mr. Callanan was removed to make
way for Mr. Campbell, and thus Mr. Flahorty
becomes Lieutenant of tho Fifth Police District.
If Mr. Campbell the detective is to be Judged
of by the actions of Mr. Carapboll the police
lieutenant, then Chief Kelly has no reason to be
proud of his new subordinate.
TnE Propser Case Yesterday afternoon,
before Alderman Heins, a further hearing wai
held in the case of Thomas Prosser, who was
stabbed on Saturday night last, by Otto Bran
denburg, at the lattcr's residence, Marshall
Btrect, above Dauphin.
Meredith M. Jones, resident physician at St.
Mary's Hospital, testified that Prosser was car
ried to the Hospital about one o'clock on Sun
day morning, exhausted from the loss of blood
from three wounds, one of which was on the
right side, below the nipple, another a little to
the left of the median line of the chest, and the
third still more to the left and lower; at 1
o'clock yesterday he began to spit blood, which
shows a probability of internal hemorrhage; It
is supposed the lung is penetrated, as there
is an escape of air whenever the region is
pressed; he is still In a very critical condition,
and although no one of the wounds is necessa
rily fatal, the man is in danger of dying; he
would be enabled to express a surer opinion in
four or five days: the wound he thought was
made by a pen-knife, or a knifolike dagger. .
Otlicer Bird testified that he had arrested
Brandenburg, and that the prisoner had acknow
ledged the committal of the deed.
Robert Brocklehurst, residing at No. 1933
Gwrmantown avenue, testified that he was with
Prosser when they went to Mr. Brandeuburg's
house; they were both in liquor: the first time
they went they were told by Mrs. Brandenburg
that her husband was out. aud they camo away,
they went back again; Brandenburg was in, and
he and Prosser commenced talking in German;
then Prosser struck Brandenburg, and he pushed
Prosser out; he (Brocklehurst) tried to keep
Prosser from going back, but he would return;
on going in the third time Brandenburg stabbed
him, and also cut him (Brocklehurst); no gun
was. produced; lie aid not see Mrs. Brandenburg
Etrnck.
ITron this the Alderman held the prisoner for
a further hearing to await tho result of the
wounded man's injuries.
This morning rrosscr was about in the same
condition, he having changed neither for better
or worse.

Leoislative. We can congratulate the Re
nnblican citizens of the Sixteenth district by
announcing the fact that George R. Krickbaum
has consented to become a candidate for the
Legislature. If the citizens of the above district
are sincere in desiring to repudiate the
corruption that marked the proceedings of
the last Legislature, they will have the opportu
nltv tv sustaining Mr. Krickbaum.
We hope the citizens will elect Mr. Marshall
Hong so stay at home. He is a disgrace to the
district.
