THE BAND BENEFIT.

1t has been a long time since any
company has filled an engagement of
four nights at our Opera House, with
such universal satisfaction az has been
given by the Gardner & Brown COM
pany. And we are glad to say also
that their merit has been recognized
by full houses. They have presented
plays of acknowledged standing and
their rendition of them has shown a
remarkably high order of dramatic tai
ent in most of the actors. We haven't
space to particularlize as we would like
to do, but must say that i'm our opinion,
the character Of Dunstan Kirke as taken
by Mr.. Gardner on Wednesday night,
was the strongest piece Of acting that
has ever been seen in lola. 1t was a
most difficult part to play, and it was
taken with fidelity and strength that
certainly stamps Mr.. Gardner as an
actor of unusual ability. AS Hazel
Kirke, Miss Aida Gardner was also
well nigh perfect, her acting being par
ticularly acceptable on account of her
pleasant voice and her entire freedom
from "rant" of any kind. The other
parts of the cast were also well taken
but our crowded columns will not ad-
NIT of further details. 1t is safe to say
that Gardner & Brown can always be
sure of an audience in lola. They were
to give Lancashire Lass" last night,
but We go to press too early to make any
mention of it,

THE LAMuNYoN ROBBERY.

The Harper Graphic has the follow
ing to say of the alleged robbery of Mr.
T. J. Lamunyon, of this county. al
Harper, on the morning Of April 4th:
The frequent and extensive robber'
les in town call for some plan for i'm.
mediate relief. No less than half q
dozen bold robberies have been com.
United within the past week; the lar
gest of which was that of T. ]. Lamun-
yon, who was relieved of $500 all i'm
cash, Last Thursday night at the depot.
He had drawn the money out of the
bank here that day to pay for some cat
tie he had bought at Milan. He was
knocked down and hurt badly. In
view of all this something must be
done and that soon.
We have not space to give in detail
the facts leading up to the alleged rob-
berry. The stories are so different that
1t will probably take a judicial investi-
cation to arrive at the truth. We
wrote to prominent citizen of Harper
with regard to the matter last week,
and he said that nothing was known
of the matter there beyond Lamun-
yon's statements. He also stated that
Lamunyon bore good reputation at
Harper where he formerly lived. 1t is
probable that before this paper is issu-
ed, Lamunyon will be under arrest and
a criminal prosecution for obtaining
money under false pretenses instituted.
Appearances seem rather against him,
but we hope he will be able to estab-
lish his statements.

Putting up at a well-known
Bourke-street hotel, a recent
visitor to Melbourne gave him
self up to an enjoyment of the
gaieties of the metropolis, and
one evening, being pretty
"fu'," he strolled into a bill
lard room, and proceeded to
knock spots off local youth
at the seductive game. SO
ardently did he become en-
crossed that he monopolised
the table for some time, and
on it's conclusion was some

he had neglected to furnish
himself with the wherewithal
to satisfy the proprietor's
monetary demands. He did
not carry a watch, and the

Element of the claim. A happy
thought struck our hero, and
he suggested that as his top
boots were overlapped by the
skirts of his overcoat he could
temporarily dispense with the
knee breaches which he wore,
and would deposit them as Sc

ton, with a promise that he
would redeem them on the
morrow. This was agreedto.
The breechcs were with some
difficulty taken off, and with
hurriedand dignified, ifsome-
what uneven, steps, the
"trouserless wight returned
to his temporary home, and
stumbled into bed. 1t hap
pened that he had determined
to depart by the earliest train,
and had previously given in

that view. Quite forgetful Of
the incident of the previous
night, his surprise and mdig'
nation on discovering that his
breaches were non est will be
readily conceived by any gen

shared in the general conster-

ever taken place in his house
before, he did his best to re-

upon his ledger his best pair
