The eitera company which was te have appeared in the opera house last creuiiig failed te turn up, and consequently there was no peifeiniunce.

Election or a Chief and Assistant k uglneer. Last evening the convention of fire pres idents and members of the councils com mittee en lire engine and hose compa nies met in common council chamber for the purpose of electing a chief engineer of the lire department te fill the unexpired term of Mr. Fordney, resigned, as pro vided by city erdiuance. The following members were present : Messrs. Decrr, Everts, Huber, Judith aud Cox, chairman, of the fire committee, and Messrs. Jacob Gable, Slaymaker, Jehn S. Gable, Hart mau, Barr, W. 31. Franklin and Hewell, representing respectively the Sun, Union, Friendship, Washington, American, Hu mane and Empire companies. Mr. Gee. M. Franklin, who is a member of the fire committee and also president of the Shif tier fire company, was the only member net president. The attendance of outsiders was small. Mr. Cox occupied the chair and Mr. Hewell was chosen secretary. Mr. Hewell read from the initiates of the firemen's union the action of that body in recommending Assistant En gineer Fred. Arneld, of the First district, as Mr. Ferdney'a successor. The chairman called for nominations, and Mr. Hartman nominated Frederick Arneld ; Mr. Slaymaker nominated Jacob A. Hellinger. On Mr. Judith's motion the nomina tions were closed ; Messrs. Barr and Judith were appointed tellers, and en a call of the roll Mr. Arneld received tbe votcsefall the members of the convention except Mr. Slaymaker, who voted for Mr. Hellinger. Mr. Arneld was thereupon de clared elected. Mr. Jacob Gable, of the Sun, then stated that the question arose as te whether this convention could properly proceed te the election of an assistaut en gineer te fill this unexpired term of Mr. Arneld, promoted, before official notice of the latter gentleman's resignation had been received. The general impression of the members, after the law had been referred te and found te have no bearing en the point raised by the president of the Sun, seemed te be that Mr. Arneld's position being pretty well understood, it would be in the nature of splitting hairs te postpone action new until the resignation of Mr. Arneld from his former position had been an nounced te the convention. Mr. Hewell thereupon moved te proceed te an election of an assistant engineer for the First district te serve Mr. Arneld's un expired, term, which was unanimously agreed te. Mr. Hewell nominated Harry N. Hewell. Mr. Slaymaker moved the nominations close, and en a call of the roll Mr. Hewell was unanimously elected. Secretary Hewell thanked the cenven tien en behalf of his son for the compli ment of the latter's election. Mr. Jacob Gable then presented and moved the passage of a resolution request ing councils te amend th9 ordinance ap propriating the public moneys of the city te the several departments thereof, new pending, se that the item providing for the fire companies be altered from $400 te Mi.li enmn-inv liaviner a. steamer and 8250 te the hook and ladder company te $800 te each of the former and $500 te the latter company ; half of the proposed amount te be paid in August next and the ether half en the 31st of May, 1882. This proposed amendment would effect the object of the erdiuance which was defeated at the meet ing of councils last Wednesday providing for an increased appropriation te the fire companies. There was a slight informal discussion upon the measure, which was, however, adopted without diBsent. Adjourned. TAX EXONERATIONS. Tne List Surprisingly Lene. Yesterday A. K. Warfel, tax collector, filed in the county commissioner's office a list of persons exonerated from the pay ment of county tax for the year 1880. The list contains net less than 2,000 names, net a few of whom are heavy property owners, lawyers, doctors, merchants and ether business men. The vast number of names en the list is well calculated te sur prise anyone who is aware of the great care taken last fall by the several political committees, and indeed by almost every in dividual voter te have the taxes of every taxable paid. It is known that in a great many cases, both the Demo cratic and Republican committees paid taxes for tbe same voters, and that the voters in turn paid their own taxes ! It was confidently believed that there were net a dozen men in tbe city whose taxes were net paid either in 1879 or 1880, and yet tbe enormous number of 2,000 or mere, appears en the collector's list of ex onerations for 1880. In a brief interview had with Mr. War fel be explained te a representative of the Intelligence!!, that maujr of the names en tbe annual registry lists of tbe assessors, arc of persons dead or removed from tbe wards, and who, net being liable te taxa tion tbeicin, must appear en tbe list of exonerations After tbe annual assess ment made iu tbe winter, there are two extra assessments made. The names en these lists arc composed largely of per sons who have removed from ene ward te another, and whose names therefore ap lcar en the lists of both wards. As they cannot be taxed iu mere than one Wurd, they must be inaiked as exonerated in the ether ; aud thus it often happens that men who have paid their tax anil held receipts are marked exonerated. Mr. Warfel says, also, that in eue of the wards the as sessor assessed against many of the resi dents a " state militia " tax. A few of these taxes were paid te Mr. Warfel befere be became aware of the fact that this tax had been abolished ; but tbe great bulk if tbe in were net collected aud are returned as " exonerated." These aud ethf r causes contribute te swell the list te its apparently unreasonable proportions ; but Air. Warfel Ins sworn te the correctness of tbe list, aud avows that bis cash books and records will prove it te be correct. On tbe ether hand, taxpayers who have net removed and who were net assessed iu mere than one ward, aud who declare they paid their taxes and held receipts for the same, are iudiguautat finding their names en the "exonerated list." Air. Warfel labors under the disadvantage of having had this thing occur before. Air. Warfel says that iu many instances, where political parties had paid tax and the taxablcs after waids insisted upon pay ing it themselves and getting receipts, he took their money, but made separate ac count of it and he holds that fund, some $330, for the benefit of whoever may show himself entitled te have his tax refunded. Excursion te Europe. The following persons will go en the European excursion, under the manage ment of B. Yccker aud Father Kaul : Rev. Antheny F. Kaul, Lancaster, Pa. ; Rev. J- J.

It is expected that a number of Lancastrians will be among the excur sieuists. Mnurlce O. Wlckenham. We recently noticed some serious charges made in tbe New Yerk Times against Postmaster Maurice D. Wicker sham, of Alebile, Ala. The following dispatch from there indicates that " Wicky " is en tbe war path : "In proceedings before the criminal court for the republication of a libel eucc published iu a New Yerk paper against Cel. Wickcrsham, Judge AlcCarfbu te-day sentenced Dr. Orsen L. Crampton, as the instigator, te $100 fine and one hours' im prisonment, aud the editor of the Neics te $5 flue and one hour's imprisonment. The cases will be appealed by these gentlemen. Dr. Crampton was a prominent candidate for Wickeisham's place as postmaster of Alebile.' Sr. ANTHONY'S PAROCHIAL. SCHOOL. Farewell Entertainment te Rev. Father Kaul. A farewell concert was given iu tbe basement of St. Antheny's church last evening by tbe pupils of the parish school in honor of the pastor, Rev. A. Kaul, who left Lancaster this afternoon for New Yerk, whence he sails for Europe in a day or two. The entertainment consisted of songs, ducts, choruses, recitations, dialegues, tableaux aud speeches by the pupils, all of which were creditably rendered. A farewell speech in English was made te Father Kaul by little Miss Bender and iu German by. Alaster Charles Ursprung, Father Kaul responding te both speeches. The attendance was very large and the farewell greetings te the pastor very affec tionate. Wanted an Overcoat. A tramp entered the residence of Air. Rese, Ne. 15 Plum street, this morning, picked up a spring overcoat that attracted bis faucy, and was making off with it when the lady of the house having witnessed his performance, compelled him te surrender, which the tourist did with evident reluct ance. Housekeepers should exercise ad ditional vigilance in guarding against the incursions of these festive pilgrims, for new is the winter of their discontent made glorious by opportunities that they are net slew te avail themselves of.

A telegram re ceived by the governor states that en the iith in La Plata county, a ranch was at tacked and 140 head of cattle run off, and three ranch men. named Thumb, Smith aud May, were killed. It i net known who were the attacking party. Seme think they were Indians and ether white desperadoes. The News furnishes the following addi tional information : " The governor's tel egram was dated Durauge aud said that Indians committed the murder, and the ranch was the ptepcrty of Jehn Thurman. Upen receipt of the telegram the governor telegraphed its purport te General Pepe and also sent a courier te Durange te ascertain the truth, and it true what band of Indians and hew many of them were engaged in the murders, and also if Chief Ignacio was at the southern agency with the main body of the tribe. Ne reply can possibly be received until to morrow afternoon. It is thought the murders may be the work of renegade Indians located iu the southwestern corner -of Colerado and Utah, who recog receg nize no chief 'and whose depredations iu the past nave been terrible. If these In dians belong te the Igancio's tribe then the situation is considered as very serious and a universal outbreak may be expected at any moment after the news reaches them of the indictment of four Indians for the murder of Jacksen. The indica tions seem te be that they will immediate ly take the war path. General Pepe answered the governor saying the report seems incredible, as Durange is only 14 miles Irem Fert Lewis, where four companies of infantry aud ene of cavalry are stationed and if an outbreak has occurred as far back as may eth he would have been uetitied by the commander of Fert Lewis, and states that reports received by him te-day from Uncampahgrc, and the White Kiver agencies indicate everything peaceable.

The fact that the pres ent proceedings against the star route con spirators imply a serious chaise asainst his own management of the posteilce, under Hayes, seems te have penetrated te his consciousness. Te a reporter who asked his opinion of the charges against Brady, Mr. Key said : " I de net believe they are true. I think Gen. Brady was one of the ablest, best officers that ever presided ever the con tract bureau of the department." And then, having turned his mind back te the period when he was postmaster general and Brady his able and geed assistant, Mr. Key added : " There is net word or figure in these charges that we did net have something of two years age." The last part of Mr. Key's plea is true enough. Nearly all the facts new pub lished in regard te the swindling system which Postmaster General James is en gaged in breaking up were in Mr. Key's possession two years age. The Sun printed them. Congress took up the mat ter and investigated it thoroughly. There was a very general public demand that tvey sneuid de tbe work tnat James is doing. The trouble was net that Key lacked the evidence ou which te proceed. What he did lack was either the brains te comprehend the organized corruption ram pant in his department, or the disposition te act under the circumstances like an honest man and a faithful publie servant. Burglars Who FaUed. Iu Providence three masked men ef fected an entrance into a large building ou Dyer street occupied by manufacturing jewelers. Having poisencl the deg, they seized, bound ami gagged the watchman and compelled him te open the deer of William Smith & Ce.'s shop. There they spent three hours in trying te open the vault, iu which was $6,000 in geld. Hav ing only blacksmiths aud beileriuakcrs' tools, they failed in their attempt, and left the watchman bound te a chair. He succeeded in alarming the police, but no clue is found te the burglars.
