Civil Rights in Theatres.

The San Francisco AHai has
the following report of a suit
recently, tried there: "In the
case of Green, a colored man,
who sued Manager Mcguire for
refusing him admission to his
theatre, United States Judge
Sawyer decided that that por-
ton Of the act Of Congress de-
claring any manager of a thea
tre or siniilaf Institution guilty
of misdemeanor, who shall re-
fuse admission to any colored
person is unconstitutional and
void. He said that Congress
has no power to make such a
law, though the Legislature of
any State might5 perhaps, do so.
The management of "a theatre
is private enterprise; the pro-
prielor conducts it for his own
benefit; it is his investment,
and he can lay down the laws
by which it shall be conducted,
and the public has nothing. to
do with it, ,fsthe defendant
had sold asticket and agreed to
let the buyer in, he would be
liable. to an. action for damages,
and such a suit. might legally
be brought. In the case asst
stands, howeyer,7 it is beyond
the power Of Congress to rule
asst has in passing the act, and
so much of the fourteenth a..
mendment as applies TO such
cases is unconstitutional and
void, and there is no ground on
which this indictment can be
sustained. The prosecution
gave notice that the case would
be appealed to the United
States Supreme Court y

The Favor He Asked.

The San Antonio (Texas)
Herald says: "A few days ago
prisoner, with face on him
that excited much remark on
account of the meanness of his
expression, was brought into
the district court to be sen
fenced to Huntsville for steal
ing some clothes off a line. As
he was known to be a very slip
perry character, one Of our hand
soEest and most vigilant deputy
sherifs took seat by his side.
After a whilethe prisoner leaned
over and whispered to the Of
ficer: "Won't you do me one
little kindness?" The officer
promised to do so with one of
the kindliest smiles We have ev-
or seen in courthouse. The
prisoner whispered: "Then sit
a little further off; I'd rather
pay hundred dollars than have
people take me for a deputy
sheriff"

Our Banking System.

The Financial Chronicle, in its
last issue, corrects the prevalent
mistake that the national banks
constitute the greatest part of our
banking machinery, and says ::
eve have in the United States a.
bout 6, 900 banks. Ofthese 2,118
are national, 907 are State banks,
166 are savings banks and 2,375
are private banks. The State
banks have a capital of some 200
millions. The capital of the pri-
vate bankers is not reported. We
estimate the deposits of the banks
at 1900 millions. Adding this
to the 800 millions of capital we
have 1000 millions as the aggre-
gate liabilities of this part of our
banking system. The other por-
tion of the system consists OF ma
tional. banks. of whose liabilities
we have complete reports from
the Comptroller of the Currency.
with an aggregate capital and sur
plus Of 693 million, with 3l6 mil
lions of circulation, and CTS mill
lions of deposits This report
makes the total liabilities of the
national banks 1866 millions.

The Dark Ways Of the
London Small Bow.
NJ. d. COnway's Letter to the Cincinnati
Commercial.

Commercial.
The other day rustic indi-
vidual came to London by train
to witness the reception of the
Prince Of Wales. A man who
had come in the same third
class carriage with him admon-
ished this rustic, when they
were parting just outside the
London station, that he should
be very careful of his money, as
many thieves would be in the
'crowd. "Oh," said the rustic,
''nobody'll get my money; I
have only one pound, and I
mean to keep thatinmy mouth"
This remark was overheard by
one of our small but clever
street boys, who watched his
opportunity, and when the hon.
est countryman had got a few
hundred yards on his way, sud-
denly scattered a few pennies
on the ground before him, and
began to pick them up again,
crying to the rustic as he did
SO, "You gimme that sovrin,"' T"
shouted the small boy. 81 seen
you pick it up and put it in yer
mouth" :"
A crowd began to collect, and
ask the boy what was the mat
ter. "Why," cried the little.
81 was agoin long with |
one pun sixpence in my hand,
carryin' it to mother, n some
body run agin me an knocked
it all on the ground, IN this man
he took up the sovrin' an [
seen i'm put it in is mouth"
The astonished rustic attempted
to explain, but his voice was
thick; something plainly was
in his mouth, and an honest
British public forced him to
The poor rustic was
glad to get off without his |
pound and with whole bones;
the boy went off with the gold |
IN his pocket, and the honest
British public distributed itself,
each member thereof satisfied |
that . scoundrel had been del
feated in his attempt to rob a
small boy engaged in filially |
supporting his aged mother.

the evening he bade the man stay
and rest himself all night, accord.
ing to the custom of the country.
The man put down his swag and
went to the kitchen, as invited.
Susan, Browns young bride, was
in and out preparing supper, direc
ting things generally for the fani-
ly and one or two guests. The
old swagman, watching his oppor,
tunity, slipped 2 note from, West
ley into her hand, TO the effect
that he was sorry for having Civ
en- her pain, asking her forgiveness
before vquitting that part of the
country forever, and added tLatif
she desired further information
the bearer could furnish it. Half
an hour afterward Mrs. Brown re-
turned to the Kitchen Her eyes
were red +; she had been weeping.
The family were at supper inside.

she said and vanished 4inside.Y5
The signal was given whenisup-
