THE LYCEUM.

One would naturally get the impression
from press notices that the company now
playing at the Lyceum theater, headed by
Frederick Book and Jessaline Rodgers. is a
picked-up STOCK company playing an out-of-
season engagement, and that the plays pro-
duced revel in the same realism and abound
to the same wealth of 'scenic and mechan-
ical' effects which were the well-worn
lines i'll the advertising for Pence opera
house When Mr.. and Mrs Book used to in
clude "Richelieu,' ''Black Diamonds and
Uncle Toms Cabin in a weeks repertoire.
The gifted impresario of the Lyceum
has made the error of starring Mr..
and Mrs. Book because of their local pop
ularity in a manner that would indicate they
were head and shoulders above the other
members of the company. No wonder, then,
the public has not had an adequate ccncep-
ton of the real merits of the productions.
There are several in the company who in
point of ability and stage experience are
quite the equals of the Books. This is at
least true of Fred H%eubner and May Louise
Aigen, while Miss Bertha Westbrook and
others are not entirely outclassed. THE
Two Orphans last week was put on in a
highly creditable manner, and was probably
as artistic a production of the amous play
as has been seen since the palmy days of
Kate ClaAton. This week, beginning to-
night, Monte Cristo' will be put on, and if
assurances go for anything, it will be capably
presented and well staged. Popular prices
are to rule during the engagement.

THE COURT HOUSE AGAIN.
The Commission Will Not Brook
the B, Oft, Interference.

The Commission Will Not Brook
the b. Oft. Interference.
The court honse commission, it seems, has
not been over much pleased with the action
taken by the board of trade some time ago in
adopting the report of its investigating COM
mittee. The members think it a piece of in
reference, and have not the ~pleasantest
things in the world to say of the trade con-
Germ in meddling in their affairs. 1t is stated
that ii the board of trade carrie s out its
threat to serve injunctions if any new con-
which is to do the work by day labor. Should
the board prove too aggressive, the commits
sion may quietly fold its hands. do nothing,
and let the building stay as it is until the
board gets tired of kicking. At any rate. it
seems an assured fact that the commission
will not take fayorably to the boards in
structions, and will insist upon a large and
Imposing structure. One of the commission
erS says:
II am not a member of the board of trade,
and for that reason would never nave crit
cised that body had it not gone out of its
way TO abuse the court, house commission.
But / have followed Its actions very closely,
and / never knew the board of trade to in
dorse the action of any individual, corpora
ton or municipal body. The board never
says anything unless it is to criticise. 1t is q
fossilized, decrepit BODY, and the sooner it
lets other peoples affairs alone and attends
to its own business the better. 1t is led on
by Judge Atwat and Maj. Bassett. The
former came to me some time ago and soberly
suggested that the cost of the court house
might be kept within the bounds of the ap-
preparation by tearing down the walls, max
ing it half its contemplated s,ze, and plant
ing a grass plot about the base in order to
enhance its appearance architecturally.
Now that was a wise proposition,
was it not? AS usual, Judge Atwater
Jumped at conclusions, and never
stopped to consider the cost of making these
changes. Why, to carry out Judge AtwaGer's
idea would have proved more costly than to
go on with the building and complete it of
granite. Maj. Bassett is a pretty level-headed
man, and 1t is my honest opinion that find
ing time hang heavily On his hands, he only
attends the board meetings for the fun there
is in them. l was in favor of a court house
of brick, to cost not to exceed $4,000, 600,
until the board began to jump on us, but now
/ say put it up of granite if it costs $780,
600. That board Of trade cannot dictate to
the commission; If the board had any ideas
worth the consideration it would be listened
to. but 1 speak only for myself when say,
let the commission go on with the work as
though the board of trade did not exist. Let
some taxpayer enioin us. Then we will
either complete the work by day labor, or
leave the court house in q state of incomple-
ton until the board regains its Senses This
certainly looks as if the board had caught a
Tartar, at least in a part of the commission.

METHODISTS UNITE.
The East Side Church Deal at
Last COmpleted.

Yesterday afternoon the deal was made
which COMPLETES all controversy in regard to
the triangular church bargain. The societies
interested are the University Methodist, the
First Methodist and The Olivet Baptist. The
two NJ. E. churches are now practically
merged into one, and a long-drawn-out
church war Is ended. By the terms of the
deal, the University church becomes the
property of the Olivet Baptist church. and
the old First church property passes into the
hands of Rev. j. A. Wright, who built and
held a mortgage on the University church.
The Olive property becomes the property of
and will &c used by the new consolidated NJ.
E. church. which is manifestly benefited by
the change. The locality is q splendid one.
the building all that could be desired and it
is believed that the united society will soon
form one of the strongest church organiZa-
lions In the city. The Olivet people, too, are
well satisfied with the change, as it relieves
them of a large debt, and they have still a
splendidly furnished church building in
which to meet. There will not be three hap
pier congregations in Minneapolis this morn
ing than the trio, when the announcement of
the closing of the deal, which has made so
much talk and worry, is made. The last
papers III the transaction will be signed on
Monday.

PENCE OPERA HOUSE.

The business for the past week at the
Pence opera house speaks palmer than
words of the success attending the manage
ment of Mr.. Hilton. The house has been
we'll filled. and Lester and Williams London
company has won well-deserved plaudits
from the large audiences. During the COM
ing week the patrons of this now popular

Splendid and Artistic Display.

The grand opening CT Mrs. Hunt, No.
$40 Nicollet, occurred Thursday, and
notwith standing the stormy day the
store was well-filled from the opening
TO the closing with delighted patrons.
The elite of the town, and many out-of-
town ladies were present, and from the
expressions of all there seemed to be
but one impression, and that was that
they had never before seen such a brill
liant and artistic display of fine MILL
merry, consisting of new shapes in Hats
and Bonnets, and rare combinations of
Feathers, Flowers, Laces, Birds. fancy
Fringes of geld and silver, and some
with turquoise and other settings. The
new Silks and Pushes come in for
trimmings, in an immense variety
of new Shades that have never before
been seen in this city. A particularly
noticeable thing was a beautiful boa
made entirely from Ostrich Feathers,
and another from Cocks Plumes, All
of these goods were purchased by Mrs.
Hunt personally in Paris and London.
Great credit should be given to Miss
Chapman, the head trimmer, who ac-
cOmpanied Mrs. Hunt on the trip to Eu-
rope, and who now is responsible for
the elegant effects in Hats and Bonnets
displayed. Now that the opening is
over, business commences. and all who
want the best at reasonable prices
should call at $40 NicolIet, Minneapolis.

A BATCH OF

The old court house fairly groaned under
the heavy atmosphere of domestic insists
yesterday morning. Poor, unfortunate little
helpmates came to tell their stories
of the disagreeaple and exceedingly disap-
pointing experiences of matrimonial felicity.
The old but interesting case of Mary {.
Wheeler against her smooth and bland hus-
band, d. c. Wheeler, afforded more stuff
for the newspapers goSSipy readers than any
of the other cases that came up The g~revious
wailings of an unfortunate union were not
heard behind closed doors TO day. as usual,
for Mr.. Wheeler was not there and the story
could be told without interruption. Through
his attorney, Mr.. Wheeler effected an under
standing that he did not resist the legal
separation, but that some of her charges of
cruelty against him were untrue, so he says.
The testimony lasted three hours, at the end
of which time Judge Young granted the
divorce.
The complaint was for cruelty, and Mrs.
Wheeler was first placed upon the stand to
relate the acts of inhuman treatment of
which she accuses her husband. The story
of the attempt of Mr.. Wheeler to place her in
an insane asylum was not dwelt upon as
was expected. Mrs. Wheeler said that her
husband did not treat her with kindness dur
ing the illness, which was the canse of her
going to a sanitarium at Hudson, Wis. The
matter of disposing of the common property
OF the couple was not brought UP.
Judge John P. Rea tried his first case since
his retirement from the district bench in
Judge Hooker's court room yesterday morn
ing. 1t was the divorce case of Mary A.Newt
VS.. Alonzo Newt, the old Minneapolis pho.
tographer. They were married Dec. "a, 1879.
and Mrs. Newt testified that her husband de-
serted her three years ago. Judge Hooker
granted the divorce.
Judge Hooker granted a divorce to Mrs.
Deloss B.. Wilson from her husband, James
Wilson, yesterday morning. She said her
husband was an habitual drunkard, and at
various times had attempted to abuse her.
Wilson boards on Central avenue, and fol-
lows the lumber business as an occupation.
The case OF Huldah A. Tilden VS.. Edwin
A. TiIden was before Judge Hooker for the
allowance of certain legal exemptions. They
were allowed. The parties live in Anoka.
Judge Smith granted a divorce to Cornelius
w. Robinett, an employe of the Northern
Pacific railway, from his wife. who, so the
plaintiff says, deserted him in 1887. The
custody or one daughter was given to the
father.
Th case of George W. Payne and Emma
M Payne was before Judge Hooker on Il mo-
ton upon the ground that new evidence had
arisen. The court took the matter under ad-
visement.
