the comic scenes which had caused
his forcible eiectment from the hall The
merchant has taken the case into court,
and the question to be tried is, " Whether
the proprietor of place of amusement
who advertises to amuse people, and sells
tickets that they may be amused, can eject
an amused patron simply for an involun-
tary expression of his pleasure. In the
present instance the performance was for
the purpose of exciting laughter and the
spectator was handed out because he
laughed. The merchant failed to see the
justice of the proceeding, and he says he
Intends to try the case well, even to car
rying it to the highest court, The adver-
tisement which promised to make him
laugh is on record the performers who
made him laugh have been summoned as
witnesses, and many of the audience are
willing to swear that he did nothing but
laugh at the performance. Now, if it had
been tragedy that the merchant laughed
at, it might have been quite different
thing but it was very grotesque COM
edy, and the merchant evidently has com
mon sense if not the law on his side.
There would be no justice in paying to be
made to laugh and being kicked for laugh
