not likely that this will continue for any
great while. Several important measures
will be speedily brought to the consideration
of the Council which will revive the fiaggin g
energies of the Administrators.
The total expenditures in the Department
of Police for the month of February were
$2i,360 81. OF this. s2l.04i Is were ex-
pended in lighting the city.
The fourth of March having passed, the
platforms in front and opposite the City
Hall will be taken down, and the lumber
sent to the Boys House of Refuge.

audience III his masterpiece. piece which
has challenged the admiration of every
lover of Dickens, Gefied the scathing criti-

assuming the leading role of Fayin, the Jer.
1t would be useless to attempt to criticise
the acting of Mr.. Wallack in this particular
character. 1t is placed beyond the bar or
limit of criticism. Suffice to say that under
the very trying ordeal of being compelled to
play to such diminutive audiences, he ex-
hibits more courage and independence than
any other actor of his ability and fame.
Miss Alice Gray, in her impersonation of
Nancy Sykes, is open to much criticism: yet,
for one who has never attempted the part
she gives evidence of success. The pathetic
portions We're rendered admirably. The
emotional delineations, of course, come
within the scope and range of her business.
The interview, in the second act. between
BIZ Sykes and Noncy did not impress the
auditors to any great degree that her i'm
personation would be all that they desired
bat this feeling were off gradually as she

greeted her. This, no doubt, nerved her,
and she proceeded unto the end in manner
that will long be remembered by those who

| OF $780, and ordered that he should stand
committed until such fine should be paid
He now presents a petition to the court set
ting forth that he has been imprisoned
under such sentence ever since it was i'm
posed, and that he is still in confinement
under it, and that he is wholly unable to
pay the fine, and praying that he may be
discharged by the court from his imprison-
ment.
l am satisfied that the court has no juris-
dietiOn or power to grant the prayer of this
petition, and that relief must be sought by
an application TO the President OF the
United States. By the constitution (article
two, section two, sub. One) the President
is invested with the power "tO grant re-
prieves or pardOns for otfenses against the
United States, except in cases of impeach-
ment." No such power is conferred upon
any other officer, Or upon any court.
contempt of court is an Otfense
against the United States. In the present
case there is judgment, judicially declar-
ing the contempt and Otfense. In ex parte
kearney, e Wheaton, 80, 43j, the Supreme
Court says: "When court commits party
for contempt, their adjudication is a con-
victiOn, and their commitment in conse-
quence is execution"
After conviction and commitment for
discharge or remit the sentence than it has
in the case OF conviction and commitment
for any other crime Or Offense against the
United States. And such has been the
practical construction of the provision of
the constitution in regard to pardcns. In
the case OF one Dixon, a fine was imposed
upon him by the Circuit Court of the United
States for the District of Mississippi for
contempt Of court. He applied to the Presi-
dent for pardon; the Attorney General e
Opinions of Attorney General, 622. quoted
above) decided that the pardOning power
extended to such a case, and that the con
tempt was an Offense within the language
OF the provision of the constitution. l
freely concur in this view, and it necessarily
follows that if the power of relieving from
the sentence imposed on Mullee falls within
the pardODing power Of the President, it is
exclusive in the President and can not be
exercised by this court. For these reasons,
the prayer of the petition is refused. For
complainant, Albeit s. Fuller.

in this instance at least it has put its foot
in it.
1t is very hazardous at all times for
people to write about what they do not
understand, and We advise our contempo-
rary in future to abstain from the repre-
hensible practice.
