The Maude Atkinson troupe closed a
most successful and even brilliant en-
gsgenent of one week at the Whitley
opera house on Saturday evening, and
could, as the Republican truly remarks,
have put In another week most accept
ably. Miss Atkinson gained In favor
nightly. Her rendition of the various
roles assumed by her was worthy Of the
metropolitan stage. 1t is difficult TO
say In which of these she most exceIled.
AS "Fsnchon," her acting is at once
simple, natural and yet purely artistic ;
as Lady Camilla, intensely emotional,
but not overstrsined; as Galetea, more
than usually satisfactory, ana as the
French spy, without a peer upon the
stage. These are numerous qualities to
be embodied in one human being, but II
must De remem bered that Miss Akin
son is born actress, and that she has
added u her natural talents all that
hard and conscientious study can give.
and when we add to this most captrva-
ting personal presence, and the power
TO sway her audiences by the magnet
ism OF real genius, 1t is not to be won
dered at that she ia able to carry of
the palm wherever she appears. We

The grandiloquent announcement in
the Republican of Sunday that Marshal
White made the arrest of two young
men the day before on q charge of
swiDdling. is on par with the Informa-
ton usually contained in that paper.
These arrests, it appears, were made by
Policeman Rima, assisted by Policemen
Romano and Crowner, and that White
was not there. Whites connection with
the case appears to have been that
after the men were securely locked
up he had them brought into court in
the absence of of the officers who made
the arrest; and without knowing what
charges those officers would prefer
against the accused. made q much
lighter charge which was punish
able by q small fine and costs. The
charges that would have been preferred
by the policeman would have been seri-
Gus enough to put the accused OF the
road to the penitentiary. When the Of
Acers inquired of White why he did not
wait for them to be present, he Is re-
ported as having asked them if they
thought he was going to ask or take
their advice or the ADVICE of anybody
else in the city except his superior as to
what he should do. II is further stated
that when one of the arrests above al
luded to was made Marshal White was
al nome and presumably in bed.
