We wonder If the managers of the Varieties
and Cther theaters where the reprehensib.e prSc-
tce Of putting stools in the aisles is tolerated,
ever refsctei upon the serious consequences that
would arise should any alarm occur which would
induce precip tate ext. of tue audience-in
which case the stools would be sneh an ineonye-
niencs as probably 10 Cause loss OF life. If they
have thought upon the subject, il seems TO thas
they should take immediate sction to DO away
With the danger. Some time last winter, if We
remember rightly, the Grand Jury reported such
stools to be q public nuisance and interdicted
Them. Has that Injunction ever been raised?

Mrs. Lngard, sometimes known as Alice DuEning
and at others as Alice Needham, appeared with her
counsel, Mr.. Charles s. Spencer and made afldavlt
that "on Sunday, while at the Coleman House, in
Broadway, William II. Needham otherwise known
as Lingard, was brawling, quarrelllng, using pro-

stroying the peace, and also called her dirty

In avery few moments all was In readiness and the
WORK commenced. Paper after paper was taken up
by the quiet easy gong president and handed to the
vigorous reader, who ratted through their contents
with rapidity ana accuracy almost incredible.
There were numbers OF claims from banks ana IN
surance companies Tor indemnify on account OF
taxes which, ~ legal tribunals, have been declared
unlawful. The CLAIMS Of course were audited and
the proper restitution 0raered. There petitions
from persons who claimed to have been erroneollsy
