self. and her constantly growing success

directed. She stands almost alone in the
style of work in which former genera
ton were wont to give their favor to Lolita
and Maggie Mitchell, and she has won her
success by giving the right direction and
impetus TO her work, which has always
been wholesome, clean and worthy The
praise that has been given her this season
suggests that her performances possess
even greater powers of pleasing than ever
before. Ii Is said that her personal
work reveals new charms, made possible
by renewed health, and that she
exhibits more vigor and volatility
than at any previous tins in her
career. Her company is an excellent one,
as judged by the names of those COM

Maurice Darcy are prominent comedy
factors in it. and In conjunction with the
star they offer some especially clever work

FIFTH STREET GRADE CASE.


One Point Decided aad Another UndeP
Discussion.
The old Fifth street grade suits were
finally brought on for trial Yesterday be-
fore Judge Langley, who will be occupied
with them today, and possibly tomorrow
also.
In these suits the city ID plaintiff and T.

traitor, Leonard Reinig, Margaret Sullivan
and +. NJ Carr as executor are defendants.
The city sues to recover 1880 grade tar
for grading Fifth street, from Seneca to
YesIer avenue. The grading was done be-
fore the fire, under an ordinances passed by
the city council when DIR. T. T. Minor was
mayor. About two-thirds of the property
owners paid their assessments. but the
fifteen who are being sued refused on the
ground that the price Of the grading Was
out OF ali proportion to the benefit and
that the grade had been changed after the
passing of the ordinance. Soon after the
fire the city brought suit to collect and
two OF the cases were tried in the superior
court. bur dismissed on the ground that
the city failed to show o cause Of action.
The supreme court reversed the decision
and sent the two cases back for . rehear-
ing. These two test cases. consolidated
with the other thirteen. are the ones now
on trial.
Besides the grounds for resisting the
collection already mentioned, the property
owners claim that the ordinance for grad
ing the street was never signed by the
mayor and that the levy was ordered not
by ordinance, but by a JOINT resolution Of
the eounoil. They claim that this inyaii-
dates the whole assessment. Tho tss.i-
mony OF the city's witnesses yesterday
showed that while the original ordinance
had been destroyed in the great ire and
the record Of council proceedings did not
show that 1t had been signed, II had in
fact been signed by Jacob Furth as acting
mayor in tho absence Of DIR. Minor.
Judge Langley held that the ordinance
could be sufficiently proven by oral testi-
mony and admitted q copy of il in evidence
over the objection of the defendants. As
TO the other objection that the levy was
made by resolution and not by ordinance,
the lawyers for the defendant were trying
70 convince the judge that Ii was one Of
great weight when court adjourned.

windy speeches of the Royalists,

through a window of the Pacific
Hotel psrlors, exploded lamp
and caused small-sized confiag-
ration. The slertness and pres
ence of mind of the only Quinn
who is registered. subdued the
dire attempt OF the great majority
and the flame was soon squelched,
with bat little damage. Some
FIVE minutes after the fire wss
extinguished an excited repnb-
lican gave notice to the Fire
Department and the engines ar
rived, as usual. in time to go
home without having rendered
any needed assistance. The boys
did well in the arriving. bat there
was nothing for them to do but
listen TO the practice ofthe Man
