artists Of the best order. We are, indeed, very
glad to notice that the glores OF the theatre are
reviving. and hope that the continued encour-
agement OF the public will enable Manager Hall
to evidence that he IS not insensible to the COM
pliment he is receiving.
There will be the usual performance tonight,
grand matinee on Saturday, and the last per-
Torrance Of the ''Two Orphans" by the COM
pany will occur on Sunday night. On Monday,
"Conscience," the new play OF Miss Claxton, will
be produced.
ST. CHARLES THEATRE.-On Sunday night the
German Band, who have been playing to select au-
diences throughout the States, will appear at
this theatre. This engagement is another evil
deoce that the manag ament Of the st. Charles is
determined to offer only polite entertainments
on it's stage.

During an interview with DEMOCRAT reporter
Harris said that he had been wounded accidentally

man named Frank Rodgers were throwing dice.
They became angry regarding pair OF

carrying forward and stopped to see how the

threw five dollar bill on Rodgers throw, as he
was about to throw; Justice walked away, saying
he knew that Rodgers was murderer. but that
he would fix him.
In a few moments Justice returned to where

the levee by incoming freight. II appears that

Yesterday morning this tribunal was engaged

during the evening The jurors, who had just been
called from their homes, sat restlessly on the
