When the evening session was called

(iticlituriuru was crowded, many stand
ing. He explained that the eisteddfod
would be conducted on business princi
ples, and incidentally remarked that

Willi them, and through him he ex
tended the cordial Kivetinf,'s of the
AVelsh people of America to the people
of Wales.

session. He spoke luiclly. tulllnjr a few

THIS AD.U'DU'ATION.
The North Seranton party was com
posed of good voices, but the blending
was not good, the intonation faulty and
voices were strained, They should have
paid more attention t.. Hi" phrasing, the
tenors sung under a severe strain. The
i'ololsl was moderately t-oi-il, and the
((inductor's effort much more worthy
than the response Indicated.

worked out. The soloist opened sharp,
but the bassos were off color. Tho con

The West Seranton trio was composed
of John W. Jones, basso; David Step
hens, tenor; Mrs. Uruudnge, soprano.
Tlie North Si'ianioii choir sang
llrst. Their rendition was excellent,
and apparently will balanced. The
West Seranton choir entered into the
competition with apparently more con
fidence, and sang In an easy, telling
manner, lioth renditions were heart
ily received by the immense iiwm
blage showing' the interest manifest
in choral competition.
While waiting for the adjudication.
Million led iu singing two old familiar
Welsh hymns. Mr. Itielianls announced
Allentown eisteddfod on next St. Pat
rick's day, and Judge Kdwurds an
nounced similar events at Taylor and
Uellevue on Christmas day.
The judge here drifted into a short
address and explained thai the con
testants were not singing for the al
mighty dollar particularly, but for self
culture and the promotion of music
and perpetuation of the eisteddfod.
I'rof. Daniels then gave his adjudica
tion on the choral competition. There
were two splendid choirs, he said, one
excelling in general quality of tone
over the other. The tempo iu both
was too slow, but the contrast was
marked between centre points.
Doth choirs erred on the same point,
but the rendition by both was magnl
ilo'iil, strong, majestic mid harmon
ious, and tlie finish necessitates re
serve force of power.
The North Seranton choir, lie said,
was a good body of voices, their lead
lug was correct, with one exception,
in which there was a wavering be
tween 11 and P. Mat. Tlie singers in
the trio, individually, were good, lmt
tlie voices were not Well blended. They
sang loo heavily and too strong. Tlie
chorus ending, however, was very ef
fectively done.
The AVest Scrautuu choir excelled In
quality of tone, the soprano and alto
parts were good, the trio song better
than others, reading correctly and end
ing good. To this choir the prize was
awarded.

New York, Nov. 'JS.lOlla Maud
Cropsey has disappeared from her
home In Kllsmbolh City, N. C' und her
uncle, Andrew 1. Cropsey, a lawyer
of ibis city, says that men of three
counties who know every Inch of the
territory have been hunting for llio
girl with dogs,
The girl disappeared a week ago to
night. There was a. party that night
al the Cropsey plantation. The guests
left, for home at II o'clock, .Tames Wil
cox was one of Ihem. Kiln went out
on thu porch with him to say good
night, That was the last umi of her
by nny of the ramlly.
A few minutes after thai Lwo other
members of tho household heard a
sertani outside. They reported It to
William H. Cropsey, the missing girl's
father. He ran out of the house with
his gun but found nobody. 11 was not
until half an hour after he had re
turned that the family missed Kiln.
The search begun then and there. The
circumstance of Klla's going to the
door to say good night lo Wilcox
was repealed, and tlie searchers went
to Wilcox's house and put him under
arrest. They found Wilcox in bed.
That was two hours and a half after
the screams were heard,
Wilcox Ik a young son of an ex
slierllf of rasquotank county, North
Carolina. He is said lo have made love
to Klla Cropsey without success.
Bloodhounds procured from Norfolk
traced the girl from the plantation to
tlie Pasquotank river al a point where
the Dismal Swamp Canal empties Into
It. Iteyond that point the search has
been fruitless, There is boat traffic be
tween KIlK.-lbetli City and Norfolk, Va
40 miles north, by way of the swamp
canal. Kllzabeth City also lias railroad
connection with Norfolk. There are
two trains a day, one at noon and the
.other at midnight.
The theory of tlie girl's relatives
here and In North Carolina is that she
has been abducted and hidden in tlie
Dismal Swamp by negroes who were
hired for the Job. and that the motive
of the principal was jealousy.

"Jolly" John Nash, one nf the last
of the old-fashioned music hall singers,
died October 1,1 at S Kaclon road, mi
bum, aged 7.','. John Nash had been
before the public for many, many
years. He began in a small way. and
was touring the provinces in tlie six
ties with a company known as Mr.
Jolly Nash and party. Tn 1S71 he be
came chairman and most popular
singer at the Strand Music Hall, which
stood on the site of the (jaiety theatre,
now in turn doomed to demolition. The
eiuertainment failed, but Nash's rep
utation was not injured in the least.
He records in his ingenious recollec
tions that shortly afterward he had the
honor of appearing in private before
royalty, singing "The Merry Toper"
and "Hacketty Jack." Later successes
were his laughing song a real side
splitter and "Now and Then," in
which he commented on the social de
linquencies of tho late Mr. Higgar and
others, Tin; Itoyal was perhaps the
hall In which he was most appreciated,
but it was at the Tivoli that he took
ids benefit iu ISM on retiring from the
boards. The Kaglo, or Grecian Saloon,
in the Clly road, inspired that immor
tal ballad, "Pop Goes the Weasel!"
Why a weasel should pop Is a mystery
1 that has ha filed all the efforts of the
naturalists to this day.
Mr. Henry Heymnu, 17." New Hand
street, west, writes: In your very
Interesting obituary notice on Mr.
"Jolly" John Nash, your contributor
(litotes the old song as per above head
ing, and says: "It has always remain-
ed a mystery to naturalists and out
ers why a weasel should pop." If you
I will allow me to explain tlie meaning
of the term I think It will bo perfectly
clear to all and .sundry why this docs
i happen. The .word weasel, In the slang
' of ihci period, meant the family plate,
or something of equal value, therefore

It stands lo reason that after the
wild expenditure of careering up and
down the city road, paying tho ad
mission and concomitant expenses In
tho K.'iKle, the best means of replenish
ing" thu purse was to "pop the weasel,"
angllce, pawn the family jewels or
plate, it strikes mo as a grealei; mys
tery why such a song ever look tlie
town, though we have In later days
had equally Insane and idiotic ditties,
to wit, "Ta-ra-ra-boom-de-ay," and
others, which most of your readers
will no doubt lie able to call to mind.
