AN INTERESTING sEesIoE-A BATCH OF
CASES.
When the Mayor opened the police
court, last evening, he found an inter-
esting batch Of cases awaiting his de-
cision. He heard and disposed of them
in the following ORDER
Henry Harden, COL, was arraigned
on charge of threatening haran to
man named Jenkins, also colored.-
The hearing developed the fact that
Harden had threatened to visit Jenk
ins with dire calamities if he ever
came after his (Harden's) wife again.
Also, that once before he had chased
Jenkins out of the house and pursued
him several squares. AS the threats
mado were only conditional, the Mayor
dismissed the case and advised Jenk-
ins to cease his visits to Harden's wife.
VIM. McGrahen and John Craven,
two bod boys were arraigned on a
charge of stealing saw from Robert
Taylor, baker, Fifth and 'Tatnall SITS.
They wele each held for Court in $100
bail.
Thos. Taylor, COL, was arraigned
for assault and battery on his wife,
The case, as developed by the evil
dence, was as follows When Thos.
married Mrs. r., she was a widow
with children, and he has since failed
to have the same love for his STEP
children as he felt for his own offspring.
A few mornings ago, lie desired his
step-daughter TO arise from her bed
and make the fire, and her refusal
created a row, during the progress oi
which Thomas beat his wife and Bit
one of her hands. He was fined 81. C(
and costs, and held under $500 bail tc
keep the peace.
Sam'l Biddle next stood at the bar
charged with harboring and keeping a
malicious dog, which, the night pre-.
vious, had bitten boy named Daniel
Mcbride. The evidence proved that
the boy, when he was bitten, was fool
ing up Biddle's alley, and in order t.
effect settlement of the case, th'
Mayor simply required the defendan
to get the animal registered.

A VISIT OF SYMPATHY.-This morn
ing two Christian ladies visited the
City Hall cells for the purpore of dis
tributing tracts among the prisoners.
The only inmates of the cells at the
time were two small boys, who were
about to be sent to New Castle for
larceny. They were unable to read,
but the ladies addressed them with
words of Christian sympathy and
kindness which doubtless made deep
impression upon their youthful but
depraved minds.

The shakespeare Club Performance.

The complimentary performance
given last night by the Shakespeare
Club attracted to the Varieties Theatre
an audie nee which was large in num-
bers and exquisite in the beauty of the
lady attendants. The evening was un-
usually pleasant, and everything went
off quite smoothly. Dreams" the
leading play Of the entertainment, pos
sesses few qualities to entitle it to criti.
cism, and hence gave little scope to the
amateurs to display their talents.
The performance closed with "a Con-
jugal Lesson" which was we'll played
by Miss Emma Maddern and Mr..
Frank Wilson. OF Miss Maddern we
add with pleasure that she is decidedly
the most versatile lady that our anna
