In the Police Court yesterday Andrew Brown
was charged with assault and battery on John
p. Thomas. This occurred at the Potomsc depot
Thomas had engaged to take q trunk from Worm
ley's coach, by permission OF the driver. When
he attempted TO take hold OF the trunk Brown,
who is engaged at the depot TO handle baggage
caught hold Of Thomas and pulled him away
from the trunk and struck him three times on the
side Of the head and face, when they cleuehed and
were both considerably scratched. The Judge
ruled that until the trunk was delivered from the
coach the driver had control Of IL. and not the
baggage handler at the depot: fined SO and costs.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Girohe-Girofa,

Messrs. Grau and ChIzEola will introduce, at
the National theatre, next Monday night, Lseoq's
latest opera bouffs, 'Giroae- GiroHs." This opera
certainly has a marked claim to popularity, for
wherever 1t is produced 1t takes the city by storm
1t is most abundant In comical situations, very
rapid in its action full Of beautiful scenery and
bright stage pictures, perfectly preposterous in
its plot, reasonably favored with Wlckedness, and
is sufficiently full of immodesty to satisfy the
most fastidious lady In the land. It has three
acts, but neither Of them have q beginning or an
ending. That, however, will not prevent warm
reception for Mile Coralie Geofroy, who assumes
she adds piquant dramatic talent We shall also
see Mile Leontine MlnelI who sings the role Of
Marasquin, and Of whom fame has spoken so
highly. MILES Kid, Dorel and Vsndame will
also be here. Excellent arrangements for the
production Of the opera have been perfected By
forward at the oox-Ofice and at MetEerott,s.
Ford's Opera House-The Majiltons.
No better proof OF the thorough training Of the
French school Of acting can be presented than
the artistic performances Of the wonderful Ma
Jiltons in their goblin spectacle Of "Ding- Dong"
Every movement OF the body, even to the action
OF the neck, is perfect. We can't say exactly
that they suit the action to the word for little
gifted are they with the set forms Of speech, but
pantomfme, while the dancing is wonderful and
the hat-spinning and other comical tricks are
simply unapproa enable. Messrs. Stanley and
and render able support to the stars Of the even
ing. The ladies who represent the pretty laun-
dresses, teo, are as charming as possible, and in
fact the whole entertainment is very pleasing.
The Avenue Theatre.
Agnes Sutherland, the far famed Scottish night
ingale, is still pleasing the patrons Of the Avenue
with her charming ballads. Miss Edwards as
the Grand Duchess is quite captivating, and the
music suits we'll with her superb voice. The
song and dance artists, the comic German ex-
FOUNDER and the man-monkey. served to add to
the attraction Of the evening.
The National Theatre.
Mr.. Aiken ended his engagement last evening
The theatre will remain closed until Monday, as
the immense preparation necessary to the pro-
duction Of the famous opera Girohe-Girofa"
demands the entire control of the stage. Night
rehearsals are in order, and . splendid perform
ance may be expected.
The Theatre Comique.
Mr.. Charles Foster; the well known New York
dramatist and actor, is meeting With fne success
at this popular house. This evening the drama
from the New York Weekly story Of bertha,
the Sewing machine Girl" will be acted. Ali
