Mrs. Kinney, No. 223 Jefferson street,

jerkers, as the pretty waiter girls at
concert saloons are termed. Yesterday
one of them named Maggie Stowe, con.
nected with the notorious Cotton Plant
saloon, came home drunk, not having
"sobered of " from the previous nights
debauch. She was boisterous, and Mrs.
Kinney sent to the police station for an
officer to arrest her. Before the latter's
arrival Maggie charged on Mrs. Kinney
with knife, stabbing her several times
about the head and shoulders. She
would doubtless have made tragic az
fair of it but for the appearance of Ser.
geant Brown, who arrested the Amazon
and walked her of to the stationhouss.
Dan Driskoll, aged seventeen, is one
of the most notorious macserels in the
city. Before the war he was almost
constantly in the station house, and
during the war killed Federal Lieuten-
ant A short time since he was sentenced
to four months imprisonment for assault
ing patrolman Rice, of the police force.
Yesterday evening Driskoll used very
abusive language toward officer George
Shoke, who, unable to quiet him. at last
entered his cell for the purpose of bring
ing him before Sergeant Hampton. On
the stairway Driskoll suddenly drew a
knife and stabbed Shoke twice, once on
the shoulder and once in the stomach.
The latter wound is severe, but it is to be
hoped will not prove fatal. Medical at
tendance was at once summoned, and
sometime afterward Shoke was removed
to his residence, near the Charleston
depot Mr.. Shoke is a Frenchman, and
was for many years soldier in Africa
He is one of the most efficient officers of
the force,

during the week. Miss Boyds MAY
Edwards was very good, the character
being rendered with grace and spirit
which frequently elected applause. Mr..
Roche, as e" Bob Briefly" was happy in
the finer points, but altogether his acting
was not up to the mark. Mr.. France
Hawkshaw" fell below his previous
representations. 1t was fair, but not
fine. Mr.. Anderson, who was excellent
as Jim Dalton" and is an excellent
actor, is better adapted to the character
and would have made more of it. Mr.
Mitchell played "Melter Moss to the
life. 1t is seldom as creditably repre-
scented. Miss Fanny Persons Sam

She was the perfect embodiment of thefast
youth, investing the character with the

plimentary benefit, rendered by citizens,

should be. Were Miss Boyd even des-
titute of claims on histrionic grounds,
there is that in her past career which
entities her to consideration from South

character most appropriate. Miss Boyd's
