Descriptive Fantasia?"The Musical Critic's Dream," or a modern mel ody among old composer's Dix Synopsis?An eminent musical critic lis tened to a rreat orsan recital and was particularly pleased with, what he thought to he, a new theme played by the great artist. On Inquiring of the artists, he found that It was a popular melody of the day set to different time, whereupon he got angry and accused the great artist of degrading his art by such trash. That night, however, the critic had a dream. In which he saw and heard a num ber of the old masters of music discuss his opinion of the creat onanist's art. whereupon they in turn sat down to the organ and played: Mendelssohn's "Sons Without Words, Xo. 1," Mozart, "Gloria of the 12th Mass." Chopin. "Nocturne," L. v. Beethoven. "Pathetic Sonata," Ros sini, "Cujus Animam," Haydn. "Andante from Surprise Symphony." Rich. Wagner," "March from Tannhauser." The critic heard the same popular mel ody of "Little Annie Rooney" through all their great works, which changed his opinion previously expressed. After the concert dancing v.-ill engage the attention of the people. The danc ing committee is composed of the follow ing gentlemen: F. Schwertfeger. Dr. H. B. Baguley. N. P.

Ail Array of Lrgnl Toloiit Figure* In n Compllt-nLrtl Aflnlr, This morning at 10 o'clock, "before Squire Fltzpatrlck, will occur the hear ing of F. W. Reynolds, ex-secretary of the duaranteo Loan & Trust Company, upon several charges of embezzlement, preferred toy the company. As stated yesterday, the Guarantee people will prosecute Reynold* vigorously, and fig uring for them to-day will be Attorneys f W, P. Hubbard, J. B. Sommervllle, S. G. | Smith and Prosecuting Attorney Meyer, j Mr. Bernle Hundlan will defend Rey nolds. The first Charge placed again at tbe prisoner is of embezzling 5108, but fol lowing that several warrant* were sworn out for his detention ?>f the com pany's documents, the bonds asked for in all aggregating $21,000, consequently Reynolds was unable to secure ball. Search warrants sent the officers to his home on Twentieth street, and to the St'anim, where his frleml, Dr. Matthews, of Washington, D. C., Is staying, but no trace of t'he company's notes and mort gages were found. The trial will occasion considerable in terest. Some of the directors of tho com pany claim that Reynolds was acting for a Washington concern, conspiring to buy out the Guarantee, by forcing it to terms thnaigh Reynolds holding on to its property.- The company's lo?3 will not be known definitely until It is learn ed if Reynolds, as alleged, disposed of its negotiable papers. There are many complications which will likely be de veloped when the case* come to trial. The company, however, will sustain but slight llnanclal loss. NEW WORKHOUSE. Tho Agitation for Another Building Springing Up. The agitation for a new city prison is springing up again, and when this year's appropriations are being made , out, it is more than likely that the city j fathers will be asked to provide funds for the erection of a building to replace the unsightly affair over which Supt. McGannon now wields the sceptre. Speaking of the matter, a councilman last night said last month's bills for the city prison were the greatest in its his tory, and something would have to be done soon to get out of the mire,, the appropriation of last year, having In ad dition. beert< supplemented by 51,000. Said he: "Council will again be asked to build a new workhouse, or consider j Sheriff Richards* proposition to feed the ; prisoners at the county Jail. I under stand that Sheriff Richards will make , another proposition, and show that he | will fend the prisoners at less expense i than th'.? maintenance of the workhouse costs the city. "Of course, with a new workhouse the expense to the city would' be consider able. and especially if more help waa required to manage the institution. Something will have to be dor*i to cut down the present expenses of the city's workhouse, for January's bills exceed ed any previous month's." Last year council selected* Franzhelm, Giesey & Faris' plans for a new work house, but the finance committee was unable to provide funds, and the plans were laid away. Now. that the matter 1 has revived, the coming few months promise additional agitation for a new workhouse, for none who see the pre:?- i ent castle on the hill expect it to sur- t vive many more winter wind's. COUNCIL TO-NIGHT. Council meets this evening, but there Is nothing special promised. B. F. How land, the Philadelphia man; who is to build the new crematory, arrived In the city yesterday. The Fulton location for the plant will hardly come up to-night, as the committee to which it was re ferred has held no meeting since coun cil last met, and unless some develop- | merits soon, follow, the plant bids fair | to stick to the Sixth ward. AUDITED BILLS. The council committee on lire depart ment met last night, and with Its cus tomary business-like manner went over every bill in detail. Bills ordered paid amounted to 5S32 23. A SUDDEN DEATH. Joseph Wolf Falls Dead In Martin's Ferry of Heart Disease. Joseph Wolf, who has been employed at William Mann's foundry, in Mar tin's Ferry, for many years, dropped dead la that city, on Second street, about 7 o'clock last evening. He boarded at the residence of Capt, John Hutchinson, on Clay street, and after eating his supper last evening he was walking ud Second street, and while passing the hill board opposite the City building he fell to the ground, falling with his face downward. Will A. 3Illler manager of the opera house, was examining the bill board at the time, nnd the first fie knew of Mr. Wolf falling was when he heard him groaning, and he gave the alarm, and Drs, A. W. Driven and J. M. IIo gan were summoned. Wolf was cnrrlcd to the city building by Alexander Linn, Armstrong Ncel and William Thomas, ad he was afterward conveyed to the residence of his brother, Edward E. Wolf, on Hlckorf* street. He was dead when the city building was reached, and the physicians said that his death had been caused by heart disease. It Is thought that he never entirely re covered from; Injuries received while coasting on Fayette street when a boy. He had been under the treatment of a physician lately, and had complained considerably. Mr. Wolf felt better yesterday morn ing, and went to work. Ills fellow workmen noticed that he had nn un natural look during the afternoon, and a part of hla work was done by other employes. He resided on Hickory street until after the death of his moth er, Mrs. Eliza Jane Wolf, some years ago. He has a brother and sister liv ing. Edward and;Agnes. The former Is working In Indiana, Pa., nnd was noti fied bv telephone last night. Ills sister resides on Glenn's Run.
