POLICE CoURT.-The following business
was transacted in the Police Court yesterday:
A. Semanza was examined upon charge Of
grand larceny and was discharged by reason
of insuficiency of evidence. All Quay was
found guilty of petty larceny-chicken steal.
ing-snd fined 500 and costs, or 100 days in
the County Jail. All Muay was found
guilty of the same offense and will receive
Judgment to-day. James Brady was tried

disturbing the peace, were continued until to-
morrow Rit Harrington was found

SERVED HIM RIGHT-The case of She
Toy, one of the Chinese demi-monde, charged
with robbery of white maintaining $40
from his pocket while visiting her den in
Chinatown-was before Judge Clark in the
Superior Court yesterday. Owing to the
fact that the defendant is but little girl, be-
ing only II years of age, and as there was no
evidence against her but the statement of the
man who claimed to have been robbed, the
District Attorney, when the case was called,
stated these facts, and also that the prose-
cutting witness was not now anxious to ex-
hibit himself by appearing to testify. Judge
Clark thereupon dismissed the case and dis
charged the defendant, remarking that any
white man who would be guilty of placing
himself in such relation as to be liable to be
so robbed deserved to lose his money and
suffer the consequences of his act.
METROPOLITAN THEATBR.-At the Metro.
politan Theater tonight the J. II. Haverly
comedy company begin short engagement,
extending only for two nights and matinee.
At the head of the company is announced
comedian OF eminence, j. B. Polk. The COM
pany appears in laughable absurdity enti-
tied 1.-The Strategists," which has been
played, it is said, with great success through
out the Eastern cities. The company is said
to be one very carefully selected, and to en-
brace many metropolitan favorites. The
company is on its way to fulfill an extended
in San Francisco. The manage
ment announces that there will be no extra
charge for reserved seats. Several OF Haver-
ly's combinations have appeared here before,
and have uniformly proven good, and have
with equal uniformity met with success.
