This case was argued by Butler, Still
man E& Hubbard, of New York, as at
torneys of Mr.. Doyle, and by G. W.
Felker, of Oshkosh, for Mr.. Drake.
This virtually disposes of the case; and
the injunction of the Supreme Court of
the state will stand restraining the Con-
tinental Insurance Company of New
York from doing business in this state.
A GERMAN hostler at Neenah, named
John Gouse, was found hanging to a
limb of a tree on the island Thursday.
It is supposed that John climbed into
the tree, and after securing one end of
the rope to limb, made the other end
fast to his neck, then jumped off the
tree. The fall broke his neck, and the
rope, which was small one, had cut his
head nearly off. Gouse was about 50
years of age. He came to this country
from Germany several years ago. He
has no friends or relations in this city,
and the remains were inferred IN Pot
ter's field. Gouse was greatly addicted
to strong drink, which undoubtedly
caused him to commit the rash act.

John G.. Baizer, of this city, took the
contract recently of furnishing bach
elor of Taycheedah with wife, for S25
and barrel of flour. John delivered
the female in prime condition, and re-
ceived $40 on account, but was obliged
to sue for the balance. Before coming
to trial he settled with the benedict by
taking SIS and throwing off the flour.
He has resolved hereafter to do only a
cash business. and gives notice that all
girls must be settled for when ordered.
A liberal discount will be made to the
trade.
a DISTRESSING ACCIDENT occurred at a

performed the bridal party returned to
their carriages, and were being conveyed

MkMrHIs T~HEArER.-A large and
op%sra-loving audience greeted the ap-
psaraace Of Aimee's French opera
bouffe company at the theater last night.
Chss. Lscocq's charming opera, Giroae-
GiroAa was produced with fine effect,
and was most thoroughly enjoyed.
Aimee appeared in the dual role "Giroae'
Giroaa," aud fairly captured the audi
ence with her exquisite singing an in
comparable acting. She is thorough
bouffe artistic, and dessrvedly stands at
the head Of her profession in her espe-
cial line of business. She gave very
fine renditions Of the gems, "Pere
Adore" Petit Papa" and lie Punch
Scintelle." This latter was the cele.
brated drinking song, and it was given
With startling effect, aud was deserVedly
encored twice. The duets with "Maras-
quin" and MourEouk" we're also finely
rendered, as were indeed all the tries,

didly, especially 10 the song Mon pere
est un tres-gros bsnquisr. Mons. Refine,
As Mourzouk," was in good voice and
gave ample satisfaction. Mons. Duplan
appeared to advantage as Don Bole-
ro.'' as did also Mile Adele Desire as
Auroro." The minor roles we're well
and accsptably filed by the members OF
the iue troupe. 1t is by far the best
opera bouFs troupe on the continent,
aud is SO recognized. Aimee was in
fac voice, and fairly electrified the au-
diencs, who felt regrets when the curtain
fell on the last act. At the matinee to-
day La Grauds Duchesse will be pre-
scented, and tonight La Jelie Pariu
meuse, during which Aimee will sing
her English song, Pretty as a Picture.
