Judge Hunt will lecture on Tuesday night
at eight o'clock at the G. A. r. hall before
the Unity club. The subject is entitled,
"An Historical Sketch Of the Acquisition of
the Territory of Montana by the United
States, with a Review of the Organization
and Progress Up to It's Admission Into the
Union" The subject derives peculiar in
tersst from the fact that Judge Hunt is a
lineal descendant of Robert r. Living
stone, who represented the United States at
the court of the first consul, and to whom
belongs the sole credit of consummating
that remarkable purchase of the Louisiana
this government from ocean to ocean.
Judge Hunt is a native of New Orleans and
remembers wildly the srot which marked
tho tranafer of authority from France and
Spain to America. Ihe meetings Of the
Unity club are open to visitors.

The occasion Of this was as he said he
first desired to write on TO the company
TO see whether or Aot they would ac-
eept the risk. Byerly said he did not
hear OF Mr.. WinZenreid's death until
last saturday when he had some con-
versation with Mrs. Winzeureid.
THE fact that the applicant is dead
ought TO be sufficient reason why no
policy in his name could be issued,
said Prosecuting Attorney Howard,
''and why didn't you give Mrs. Win
zenreid back the So right then and
there?"
"Well, I'll tell you" said Byerly,
"there had been some talk and accusa-
tions that l had never applied for
policy at all, and | was waiting 10 get
letter and such other papers from the
company in Indiana as would prove
that honestly transacted the business.
And these letters did not arrive until
last Sunday, after my arrest"
A striking feature Of the case Is that
Byerly obtained an application for
policy for Mr.. Winzenreid without ever
seeing him at all, but took for granted
what Mrs. Winzenreid told him, and
fixed up the questions and answers
wholly through her. Both Mr.. Howard
aud Squire Ankle alluded to this loose
way Of doing business, and deprecated
the practice Of so taking insurance ap-
plications, which they feared was going
ON 10 some extent in this city. Lawyer
Coniff appeared for Byerly. After
hearing ali the evidence, Squire Ankle
took the case under adviSement until ?
o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

"rHE HARVEST mooN.v
Madame Janauschek Seen In Her New
Romantic Drama

Madame Jansuschek, the old-time
actress, so long before the public. was
seen at the Opera House last night.
There was rather light assem-
blage present, and in this partic-
ular. respect Janauschek ap-
pears to have been unfortunate
here Of late years. The seats in the
dress circle, however, were well taken,
and the audience was rather select
one.
1.-The Harvest Moon" is romantic
drama. and the part of Mrs. Oakley
which Nine. Janauschek plays is the
most pleasing one by far that she has
presented in the last ten years. In it
her tragic powers have ample scope; at
the same time her personality lends
itself more satisfactorily TO an embodi-
ment of the character than it now does
to such roles as Lady Macbeth or Mary
Stuart.
The story of 1.-THE Harvest Moon" is
remarkably clever, but it is rather
roughly, inartistically told. The plot
turns on the murder of certain baro-
net, whose decease would be welcomed
by several people, and considerable in
genulty is shown In concealing know
ledge of the actual murderer (who is
yet constantly on the scene) until mo-
ment before the fall OF the final curtain;
then he is discovered to be a person
whom the spectator of the play has
been sneering at all through the per-
Torrance under a delusion that he
was an American traveller, and very
unpatriotic one. The scene OF the play
is the Harvest Moon Inn, In Yorkshire,
and the time of action covers period
of about two days. In places it would
seem that the literature Of the piece
could be improved. However, as it Is,
deep interest is kept up from beginning
to end.
The comedy scenes are weak, but suf-
fciently amusing. One Of the charac-
tiers, Clara, the daughter Of Mrs. Oak
ley, the inn-keeper, is taken by Miss
Jessie Bonstelle, who kisses every man
who comes within mile OF the inn
with a prodigality that should become
wearing to her favorites within week.
The support was fair, but not so good
as to bring out all the merits OF the
piece. Mr.. A. H. Stuart played the
Rev. Horace Deerwood, and Paul r.
Everton was the murderer, under the
guise of Tony Harrington from abroad.
Mr.. James Martin, who wrote the piece,
filled the part of DR.. Grimes.

A BILLIARD PHENon.
Prof. X. s. Lowther Astonishes the Boys
at Ball Rolling.

at Ball Rolling.
Ever since last Saturday there has
been in town 4 billiard phenom by the
name of z. S. Lowther. Where he
came from, or how he happened to drift
into Wheeling no one seems to know,
but at all events he's a crack billiard
player. 1t is said he has played with
Shaeier, Slosson, Ives. and other great
PLAYERS in practice games.
Now, the average run OF billiard
players here in town seldom reaches
twenty shots in one run, and as gen.
eral thing don't go much over ten or
eleven-that is, in three-ball straight
carom game. But this Mr.. Lowther
plies up so, 60 and 20 at time, and
this rather astonishes the boys. On
Monday afternoon one OF the best aver
age players that frequents the Mcclure
House billiard parlors thought he would
try him one game-even up, Just TO see
how he played. The stranger won the
game by just one point. This gave the
home player heart, and he started In to
do Mr.. Lowther up on the second game
with a vengeance. But the vengeance
was on the other side. When Lowther
ran out his opponent had only three
points, and he made a dive for the cue
rack as though ne had been struck by
lightning. Yesterday morning he crossed
cues with a well-known player, giving
his opponent five discounts. But dur
ing the game Lowther ran IT'S points In
one run which put quietus on the con-
test. He played several OF the good
hilliardists vesterday at FIVE discounts
and won them nearly all readily. being
watched by crowds Of enthusiasts.
Several are anxious to see him cross
cues with Mr.. Bliss, who is regarded as
the strongest player in the city.

THAT INSURANCE CASE.

Amusement.

Squire Arkle Takes the ByeTly Case jnder
Amusement.
There was an interesting case before
Squire Ankle yesterday afternoOn-in-
te-eStiug from the fact that 10 revealed
certain insurance practices hitherto lit
lie known 20 the pgb.ic. A. j. Byerly
was arTGigudd for obtaining money
under false pretonCes. 1t seems that
SEINE time ago Byerly, who was then
agent Of the Proyident Life Insurance
Company, inthis rOuudS Of the city,
called upon Mrs. e. C.. WinZenreid.
widow of the ieweier, who recently died
at his home on Market street. At that
time her husband was living, but con-
fined 20 the house with sickness. Byerly
began talking 20 Mrs. NiuZeureid about
insuring the life Of her husband, and as
he gave q rather glowing prospectus,
he succeeded In inducing her to take
out a policy. The amount of the in
surauce was 20 be SlfO and she paid
$500 down on the promise that the
policy would be forthcoming as soon rs
he could arrange sOr 10 az the Office.
Mr.. II. O.. jenkins was also az the
trial. He is the Secretary and General
Manager Of the Provident Life InSur-
auCe Co. he testified that be knew
nothing Of the transaction until some
one came 20 the Office 20 pay premium
on the policy He then became SuSpi-
ciouS, and began 20 enquire as 20 the
how, when and wherefore OF the case.
He learned that DR.. Uirich was the ply
stefan in charge of Mr.. Winzenreid, and
he called upon him and asked what the
condition OF the man was, aud whether or
not he would consider him a good risk.
The Doctor replied. "\o, he'll be dead
I'm three months" Knowing then that
q very bad risk had Oeeu taaeu WAITED
until Mr. Byerly again came into the
Office, when / asked him about It aud
reprimanded him for such negligence.
The Company refused 20 issue the policy
and ordered Mr.. Byerly TO 20 up TO
the house Immediately and get Mrs
WinZeureid 70 sign release, which he
reluctantly did.
It was about this time that Mr.. Dyer
" for this and other reasons was dis
charged from the employ OF the COM
many. Finding that Mrs. WiUZeureid
was unsuccessful in the Provident, By
erly again proposed that she try another
company LA0A was AANAN ANh.'r-l~f e--'N-
mentioned the American Mutual, OF
F}khart, Ind. She finally consented 70
make an application, paying Byeriy $40
As the FIRST rate on four shares. Re
cause one company rejects person is
no evidence that every other company
will" said Byerly. The New York
life Insurance Company is one Of the
largest and strictest in the world, and /
have known persons 10 pass a perfect
examination there who have been re-
iected BY other companies
Mrs. Wirzenreid who was present
said she did not remember whether or
not she signed the application but at
All events she consented to the agree
ment, and in good faith, SuppoSing that
everything was all right. This was
some time ago, and she has neither re-
ceived the policy or the money back.
IL appeared from the testimony OF

sent on TO the American Mutual, but
has remained IN his pocket ever since

TRYING TO PROVE AN ALIBI.
The Case of Burt Haggerty and Jack Lash
Before squire Ankle.

Before squire AIhlS'
The case Of Burt Haggerty and Jack
Lash, charged with treSpass and assault
and battery, came before Squire Ankle
yesterday al O'Clock p. m. The plain
lifts were Mrs. Hatfield and Mrs. Rob
erts. From the evidence it seems that
the plaintiffs charged the defendants
with having come TO their houses in
Alley A, near the ice tanks, about 5
O'Clock last Tuesday morning and after
knoc King for some time they burst
door down, then threw a stone at Mrs.
Hatfield, after she had used poker on
them. Mrs Hatfield was pretty posi-
tive that the prisoners were the right
parties, and particularly in regard to
Lash. Both Lash and Haggerty, who
are bTakemen on the G. X
p, endeavored TO prove an
alibi, claiming that they were ont OF
the city when the occurrence is said to
have taken place. They said they could
bring a railroad time card to prove that
they were elsewhere at the time. The
Squire decided to give them an Oppor-
tunity to bring documentary proof of
their testimony, and the case was ad-
fourued until o'clock this afternoon.

PICTURESQUE BLAZE.
A Lively Fire on Wheeling Hill Las
Night.


Lively Fire on Wheeling Hill Last
Night.
About a quarter to seven o'clock last
night an alarm Of FIRE was rung in from
box 80. The fire was easily located,
however, without the number OF the
alarm, as the blaze was on considerable
of an eminence and brilliantly lighted
up the northern part OF the city. The
fire was on Charles street, north
of Twelfth street, and when
discovered was rapidly consuming
two-and-a-half-story frame building,
belonging TO Mrs. Abbie Garden, a col
ored lady. WHO'S now living out on Eotf
street. There was no one in the house
at the time, as the building was under
going repairs and also having an addi-
ton annexed, neither was there any
furniture or filings on the inside.
The fire was first discovered by some
of the neighbors near by, who quickly
raised an alarm. The department re-
sponded promptly, but there was some
difficulty getting on water, as so much
pressure was required at that distance.
The fire could be viewed all over the
city, and crowds gathered on the scene.
Although the building was completely
enveloped in flames before the water
was on, the fire was extinguished in
remarkably short time. The loss is be-
tween $500 and 81, 200. The fire is be-
lieved to be of incendiary origin, but as
yet there is no clue 10 the guilty par
ties. A daughter of Mrs. Garden, the
owner of the property, teaches in the
Lincoln school.
At half-past seven o'clock a second
fire alarm was rung in from box 43, the
ire being located at the corner of Chap
line and Twentieth streets. 1t was &C.
casioned by defective fue in the resi-
dence of Henry Grimm at the east end
Of Twentieth street 1t was readily ex-
tinguished without the aid OF the de-
partment. The loss was slight.
