At THE PEOPLES
last evening there was a strong play
well acted, and only half-filled house.
Ouida'S Moths" as seen on the stage,
is better than the book. There are some
strong parts in the play. and chance
for good acting. Miss Young has sell
dom appeared to better advantage than
as We're Herbert. the heroine in
Moths" and the American girl
abroad was excellently personated by
Miss lie Baron. The vivacious
young lady seems specially adapted for
such part. Miss Aigen, as the
Duchesse de SounaZ, the fayorite of
Prince Zouroff. and Mrs. Myers, as the
mother of We're Herbert, had difficult
parts, but reflected creditor themselves.
f. G.. Huebner, as the Russian
prince, was the principal man in the
Russell did some good acting. The play
was deserving of much better recep-
ton than it had, but St. Paul theater-
goers are. perhaps. not yet up to Ouida's
works. The orchestra made hit. and
the music received more applause than
did the play.
THE DIME MUSEUM.
Alice Swan, the phenomenal whistler,
attracted great many people to the

derfulIy gifted, and whistles the most
difficult classical selections or the SIM

theater is one Of the best ever given at
the museum.

CASH DRAWER ATTACHED.
A Sensation in the Register Of Deeds
Office.
OWED DICK BELL MONEY.
Consideration Shown During an EIee-
ton Canvass Does Not Result in
the Settlement of Debt.

a sensation was created in the regis
ter of deeds Office yesterday afternoon
when Sheriff Richter. provided with an
attachment taken out by r. w. Bell q
Co., laid claim to the contents Of the
cash drawer. amounting to sl07.75. The
suit upon which the writ was issued
grew out of a financial transaction be-
tween the reelected register and r. w.
Bell & Co. ON a note for $500. This note
became due last October, but, despite
repeated demands, the claim was not
satisfied and the plaintiff resorted to
heroic treatment to compel payment.
81 did not wish to deal harshly with
the register of deeds,' said r. W. Bell
last evening, s'but / had to protect my
self and secure money that rightfully
belonged to me.
''At the request of the maker of the
note. | refrained from presenting it for
payment during the recent campaign.
because | understood that Dir. Bell was
short of ready money, owing to the ex-
penses he incurred in conducting his
canvass. He borrowed $500 from me
but he put me off on one pretext or an
other until last Friday, when received
positive assurances that the money
would be Forthcoming. But l was
doomed to disappointment. and having
ascertained that Mr.. Bell had gone
South with his family and would prob
ably be absent all winter, | concluded
to attach his fees, for the money re-
ceiyed by his Office does not belong to
he county. had previously Instituted
punishment suits against certain
banks in this city where Reg
lister Bell was in the habit of
making deposits and learned that he
had transferred his account to his
brother, and that all checks were drawn
Charles n. Bell per NJ. j. Bell" This,
coupled with knowledge of Register
Bells departure for the South. induced
me to invoke the aid of the law to Sc
cure what was justly due me. Sheriff
Richter WAS ayerSe to serving the wit,
but insisted upon it. and accompanied
him and supervised the execution. L
left him in charge of the cash drawer,
and he will stay until my claim is salts
fed, unless Register Bell liquidates
at once. A telegram was sept to the
latter at st. Louis this evening. and it
is likely that he will return TO st. Paul
and make settlement to avoid further
trouble. One reason that had for not
pressing Mr.. Bell for the money before
election. or taking any legal steps, was
to prevent the. circulation of reports
that might prove derogat0ry to his
standing as a candidate for reelection
to office. The fees of his office are Sntfi-
cient for him to pay what he owes and
leave good surplus, and he has no ex-
cuse for Falling to meet this Indebtedness
