While at police headquarters he was

in the patrol wagon one of them taunt.

glish, Eyes, get hung, and | want them
other men hung too. They were in it as
well as me-"
When lodged in Jail Nardello's shoes
were changed for prison pair as it was
found that the shanks of his shoes were
of steel, and it was thought that he
might DO himself some harm if he was
allowed to keep them. Nardello claims
that his finger was cut while aiding in an
arrest Of an Italian.

"BOCCACCIO' AT ALBAUGH' S. Franz
Won Suppes comic opera, "Boccaccio,"
was produced in English in this city for
the first time at Albaugh's Opera House,
and the large audience in attendance in.
dicated that the venture was n financial
success. The argument of the opera is
in effect that Pietro, Prince of Palermo,
is to be married to Fiametta, a daughter
of the Duke of Tuscany, by morganatc
marriage. He goes to Florence to be
betrothed TO her. On his way he meets
with party of jolly students and their
leader in mischief, the poet and novelist,
Boccaccio, who is in love with Fiametta.
Boccaccio has made enemies of all the
married men of Florence through ridi
culing them in his works as drunkards
and hen.pecked husbands. They swear
to be revenged upon him. Pietro, who,
before presenting himself at court has
played series of wild pranks with
the students and made love to q
married woman of Florence whom the
students led him to believe was niece
instead Of the wife of Lotteringhi, the
cooper, has the misfortune to be mis-.
taken for Boccaccio, and receives
sound thrashing from the men of Flor.
ence. Boccaccio, knowing that Famet.
ia returns his love, hits upon q plan of
| freeing her from q dstasteful marriage
with the Prince. He invents letter
from the Duke to Pietro, which breaks
off the marriage, in consequence of the
follies of the Prince while at Florence.
The opera is well cast and. mounted in
the most acceptable manner. Miss
JEANNE Winston appeared as Boccaccio,
part in which she has gained an ex.
cellent reputation as n male impersona.
tor, and sustained the character com.
mendably. Miss Louise Searle, as Fla.
meta, Lambertuccio adopted daughter,
had little to do until the third act, but did
it well, and in that act, in the duett be
tween her and Boccaccio, she was given
an opportunity to show the strength and
sweetness of her voice. Miss Annie
Meyer has voice of power and full of
music, and made the most of the part of
Isabella, the married woman to whom
Pietro made love. Walter Hampshire
as the Prince of Palermo, Joseph G..
Fry as Leonetto, Walter Allen as Lot.
teringhi, Arthur Bell as Lambertuccio,
and Vincent Hogan as Scala, all sus.
tanned their parts with credit. The
chorus was strong and remarkably well
trained. There were many encores, both
for the principals aud choruses, and most
of the demands for repetition were com.
piled with. The opera has made q sue.
cessiul start and will be repeated to-.
night and through the week.

PARDoNED MAN ALLOWED TO LAND.
The Secretary of the Treasury re.
Gently submitted to the Attorney Gen.
eral for an opinion on the question
whether or not +. A. II. Behncke, II
pard oned criminal, who arrived in New
York from Bremen, per steamship Main,
should be permitted to land under sec,
ton of the act of March 8, 1875, relat.
ing to foreign immigration. The com.
missioners Of emigration at New York
had reported in favor of allowing him to
land, but the collector of the port
thought it contrary TO law. The Attor.
ney General has decided that Behncke
should be permitted to land. He takes
the ground that the pardon blotted out
the olfcnse, and that the evidence pre-.
sented shows that it was not granted on
