VIM. B. Niece when member of our
City Council, exhibited the very qualities
that are needed in a legislator. He kept
a sharp eye on expenditures, insisted on a
thorough auditing of accounts (by which
means the delinquent City Tax Receiver
was brought to account), and devised the
plan of monthly reports by which it will
be impossible hereafter for any Tax Re-
ceiver to get away with the public funds
to any great amount. He will make a
first-class member of the Legislature.

The sale of Western horses, at the
Bellemont House, in this city, last Satur-
day and Monday afternoons, drew out
large crowds. The prices ranged from
$50 to about 500, and averaged about $50
each. These horses were unbroken, and
on Monday morning, when the horses were
delivered to purchasers, a regular "Wild
West" performance was witnessed. One
of the men, mounted on trained horse,
lassoed the horses as they ran and threw
them off their feet, where they were held
and had halters placed upon them. The
stock sold, we hear, is considered good,
and gave satisfaction to the purchasers.
Fifty head were sold.

BIJOU OPERA HOUSE.

At the Bijou opera house on Monday
evening and continuing during the
week, with usual matinees, Miss Agnes
Herdon will present LA Belle Marie,
or, A Woman's Revenge" OF this play
it can be said that so far as it is per-
Missile to treat on the stage the sub
ject Of unholy intimacy and its inevita-
BILE suffering to one and possible retri-
button to another it has proven success
full. This theme treated seriously can
do no possible harm when handled
with only such details as are necessary to
make the relations OF characters under
stood. The lesson taught by the woman
who takes 1t upon herself to punish a
crime for which there is no
law can safely be compared
with the influences of the
misleading lives of such jolly rascals as
Charles Surface, or even Rip Van
Wrinkle, one of whom almost makes us
forget that Scapegrace is not an envi-
able character, and the other that dissi-
patton and laZiness are not commend
able qualities. Miss Herndon becomes
the role of La Belle Marie in appear
ance, it is said, as few actresses could:
reads her unimDassiOned and unac-
cented lines with impressive eloquence
and delightful attention to the ele-
gancieS of enunciati0n. One exchange
saws; agnes Herndon is as beautiful
woman as Langtry or Potter, with
more talent than both combined.
While another says: ''She has the
voice of Anderson, the same style of
Davenport. and is as talented as
either"

KICKER ON THE STAND.
He Tells His Side of the Story in
STRAIGHTFORWARD Manner.

He Tells His Side of the Story in a
straightforward Manner.
When the Kicker case came up again
yesterday, the defense proceeded to call
witnesses to assail Mr.. Clementson's
character. The witnesses who made pos
tive statements derOgatory to Mr..
ClementsOd's reputation were found to
have some private grudge against him.
Other witnesses were called who could
not make definite statements, and these
were shut Oft by Judge Hicks. A mo-
ton was made to adjourn to give the
defense time to procure more positive
witnesses, but Judge Hicks decided to
hear Ricker'S testimony, and he was ac-
cordlngly called.
Kicker gave bis testimony in a
straightforward manner, evinced no
nervousness and made very good wit
ness. All the charges brought against
him by Clementson were denied. He
sWore that on Oct. l, the date of the al
under the influence of liquor, and did
not come to the store until late in the
afternoon.
''ln the sales to Oiander. Sunde &
Peterson, what did you do with the
money received" he was asked.
81 put the full amount in the drawer,
and entered the sales in the blotter."
Are these figures now as you made
them?"
mo. They have been altered"
Kicker was here asked to check over
several items On the blotter that had
been entered by him. He did so, and
ut the request of jlryman the whole
book was so checked.
The defense intends to introduce eX-
pert testimony. and the blotter was here
ton. His evidence has not yet been
called for.
Ibid Mr.. Clementson ever ask you for
money!" asked Mr.. Arctander.
He wanted me to join him in incOr-
pOrating the company and put in $1,000.
I told him l could not do that. He then
wanted me to loan him $500. l told
him that he already owed me enough,
and that would have no security. This
angered him."
"Had you ever loaned him money!"
Eyes; | loaned him $500 through
John Carlson at one time and $500 at an
other time"
Kicker then detailed the conference
with Smith, the detective. in Clement
sons store. He denied that he had

that ClementsoD seemed nonplussed for
q moment when taxed with having put
up job on him, but, after moments
silence, said he wanted a settle m mt.
He said that Clements0n threatened to
have it all in the noon edition of the
papers if he did not settle.
Il offered him $25," he continued.
shut he laughed at me, and Smith said:
you had better make it 800 and he will
settle / did not want to have scam
dial published. as was to be married so
soon and could not leave the store to get
any advice. Clementson said If would
give him a receipt for my wages for the
last three months and pay Smith he
would call it square, and agreed"
"Why did you agree to this settle
ment?" asked Arctander.
II did't really know. I suppose for
the young lady's sake and her parents,
and to avoid any scandal"
The prosecution did not wish to cross
examine the witness Immediately, and
court was adjourned until Monday
morning.

"THE PAYMASTER."

Commencing tomorrow night at the
Grand opera house. ''The Paymaster"
will be given. This is the third year of
success for the play, and 1t has been
presented in nearly every large city in
the Union. 1.-THE Paymaster'' is said to
be good, wholesome, manly play, but
with plenty of sensation about it. The
hero goes through all the adventures
common to Con the Shaughraun. He
dives, sWimS, escapes and does all the
things incident to the idea of an Irish
melodrama. Yet it IS all thoroughly
enjoyable, and as fresh as the first day
it was all invented. which was a good
many years ago. Duncan B. Harrison
is the central figure of all this. He
plays the part of an Irishman who is a
lieutenant and paymaster in the British
army. His colonel steals the money in
his keeping and then accuses his subor-
dinate. The colonel condemns his lieu
tenant to imprisonment, apparently
without trial, and in spite of his evident
innocence. He escapes. Of course the
colonel's guilt is made manifest In the
end. 49,
