There was certainly a wide difference
between the roles that Mrs. Potter has
assumed in the last two evenings. She
was as "chic" in I'm Society as she
was deliberate in THE Ironmaster -
Indeed, there seems to have been a
purpose in the contrast. For instance,
on Friday evening when the ironmaster
discovered the lack of love on the part
of his wife he sentenced her to live with
him, but as a stranger. The judgment
was strong and bitter. Claire (drs.
Potter received the fiat in silent scorn
and for a considerable period remained
defiantly looking into her husbands
eyes. We heard a gentleman in the
audience whisper, eff she don't move
in ten minutes the piece will drag" but
fortunately she began to turn at this
moment and slowly left the stage. But
in the decidedly French comedy of last
evening, there was more action than is
usually seen. In dialogue, Mrs. Potter
was not 20 be delayed. Reply followed
quickly before the query had been ut
tered, repartee was rapid and humorous,
and the whole comedy went with great
spirit and eclat. Persons in the audi
ence who knew, claimed that Mrs. Pot

! The finance committee has not held a
meeting during the past week and none
has yet been called, although the prob
abilities are that a call will be made
for Monday or Tuesday afternoon. This
committee has a number of important
measures and propositions before it,
among them being the recommendation
or the committee on Salt Lake and Jor-
dan canal and irrigation, that the rights
lof the settlers in Parley's canyon, in
GLIDING those in Mountain Dell, be pur-
chased by the city in order that the
water supply from the canyon may be
controlled exclusively by the city, in
the hopes that thereby all filth and dis
ease breeding matter may be kept out
of the stream. This is not a new move,
by any means. having been talked of
by several other city councils than this
now in power. The lack of money, for
Ut is estimated that it will require not
less than $3.50 has been the death OF
every other proposition of this nature
and the same lack of money is more
than likely to dafeat the movement this
time. AS stated in The Herald on We'd
nesday morning the council listened to
the proposition in executive session af-
ter the adjournment on Tuesday 1t

 NEW YORK, Sept. 5.--Gsptain John T. Stephenson's trial was resumed be- fore the police commissioners yesterday. All the testimony for the prosecution has been put in by the witnesses and summing up for the defense probably will be concluded by tomorrow even ing, The commissioners may withhold their decision for week or they may announce it at once.
 Captain Stepbenso4 is accused of venality and bribery since he has been on the force. He appears not to be at all alarmed by the case made out against him. He declares that he never saw one cent of the money alleged to have been collected by Warden James Kelly and he can fully explain the fruit transaction. There is no evidence te prove that he got rich in the legitimate fruit business.
 Whether or not there will be any more police trials in the near future depends upon the action of the Lexow commit tee. If the investigation goes on con. tinuously after next Monday the chances are that the police commissioners will hold no more trials for long time Everything indicates that Assistant Dis trict Attorney Wellman made an amica ble arrangement of some sort with Johr W. Golf, chief counsel to the commit tee, before those important Lexow wit nesses, Messrs. Schubert and Sandford were turned over to the police.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION. WILL PINE BLUFF BE SRY2 Many of the County Precincts Have Voted Against License While Many of the Tewng-people Failed to
 Vote On the
 Question
WILL PINE BLUFF BE sRY2

There was considerable excitement on the. streets last night caused by the report that the county had gone dry" in Mondays election. It seems that many of the country townships voted solidly against license, while here in town many of the voters failed to vote upon the question at all.
 It is positively asserted by those in position to know that the Second Ward in this city voted against license. which. if true, will cause the removal of every wholesale and re- tail liquor house in that ward on the first of next January, As many of the liquor dealers,the in Second Ward own their owR buildings, this would work an additional hardship.
 It was also stated last night that to permit the sale of liquor it re quired majority of all the votes cast to be "for license" but this is as emphatically denied by others who have looked up the subject.
 However, it is generally believed that there is no occasion for alarm among the saloon men. The vote of several townships has been received since last night, and in these town ships the vote is said to be flor license. Tn all probability the whiskey men will have close call. :" but they will likely "pnll through" with about 300 or 300 majority.
 The official count will not be made until the returns from all the country districts are brought ill, which will probably be tomorrow, and until the official count is made the result can= not he definitely known.
