and the Supreme Court reversed the decis
ion of the Court below, rs both of the wo-
men said to be his wives had husbands llv
ing at the time. They we're all very much
married, and now the Court is trying to
find out who is who.
Herr Scunenthal has left US for the Kon-
igs Theatre at Vienna, and he carries back
to his Austrian home the good wishes OF
our entire German population, and big |
bag of American guilders. He has made
more in two weeks in New York than he
could make in two years in Vienna. HIS
engagement was $1,000 per night, and all
his expenses of every kind and character
paid from the moment he jumped into his
cab at Vienna to go to the railway station
till he was landed back at his own door
again. Net bottle of beer, not dish OF
sanrkraut. net q pretzel did this lucky ac-
! tor have to pay for. He was wined and he
was dined; he was taken everywhere, ana
he saw the elephant free of expense. ne
could have eaten fifty meals day ana
never paid cent, and aside from the $l5,-
/
the profits over a certain amount, and that
little interest amounted to the nice little
sum of 5000 more, making 2O,oO0 hard
dollars that we paid Herr Sonnenthal for
two weeks fun; but it is all right, every
body is satisfied, managers, audience, ac-
tors, everybody: and have no doubt that
Herr Sonnenthal goes back to Vienna with
a much more exalted idea of Uncle Sam
ueps doninions than he had when he ar
rived here couple of weeks ago. One
thing most unquestionably raised the
American character in the estimation OF
this talented German: when he examined
the size of our breweries and saw our ca
pacity for lager, there could be no reason
able doubt on his mind that we we're truly
great people. But he has gone from our
gaze like beautiful-no not dream, for he
is far too substantial for that, but some
thing nice. He has pocket full of good
watches, u large valise full of lockets, rings,
pins. chains, bracelets, and nicknacks too
numerous to mention. At the steamer the
German population surged and seethed
around like the waves of an angry sea.
The cabin was filed with flowers from one
end to the other, and when you consider
that five dollars does not go very far on
Jacoumets or Marectal Niels you may
jud 90 what the outlay was. But he is gone,
and now we are asking who will take the
next $4,000, but don't talk about hard
, times.
If any of the young athletes down your

and most profitable place on the continent
: for mill. 1t is not very long since We
looked upon the whole of the bufing crew

, burglars, but that is all altered now. Doc

!. only four of his ribs smashed and the Los

It ough and complete. On Wednesday nigh
l. 500 of our swellest swells met at the Atll

g youths pummelled each other to thei
n hearts content. The papers teern with &C
