'BR1psEroEr. March 6.-Dr B. D. Sheedy said this morning that the Catho- lies of this clty would not build a hospital with the fund left them for erecting a charitable institution.

It is believed now that the home for aged people will be established, and erected before the close of the present year. site in the better part of the city has been offered for the building. The Catho- lies have SIG. 0.0e0, left them by a wealthy resident, and some work must be com menced this year to hold good the bequest The pan of the home has met the hp- proval of Bishop Tierney. and he has promised it his financial support.

"In Old Kentucky"

The great success remarked last season i n the comical barnyard scene of "In Old Kentucky" has naturally given birth to a horde of imitators and, no doubt. there will be other Pickaninny bs nds and "buck'' dancers submitted for public approval during the present theatrical campaign. The public, however, is not slow to dis tinguish the spurious. and it is likely that ''In Old Kentucky" with its clever little darkeys will occupy first place for many seasons to come. At the Jacques Thurs day evening.
 ''The Still Alarm"
 If we must have realism let us have it red hot and siZzling-let us have it realis- tic. ''The Still Alarm" may have been built around this one situation, but what of that? It has proved an entertaining play and a successful one. "The Still Alarm" is an interesting one and effective play and it has made R lot of money which it could not do unless it possessed some extraordinary merit. It will be presented at the opear house this evening.
 ''One of the Boys."
 William Collier. the quaint comedian, whose success as a laughmaker when he wore the judges wig in "Hoss and Hoss'' always made him welcome, will appear at the Jacques next Friday evening in the Edward E. Kidder's new comedy "One of the Boys"
 saHidsummer Nights DreRm."
 The favor which Mir Underhill has won from New York critics may be shown from Tribune report, as follows: "A Mid summer Nights Dream, in the range of it's characters and the scope of its plot. which is concerned at once with the purest imaginative poetry and the most boisterous farce, offers a difficult task to the reader, but Mir Underhills interpreta- ticn was marked by a thorough grasp of the essential features of the play, by a delicate poetical fancy. and a delightful humor. His rendering of the love pas good breeding which is none too common among public readsrs of Shakespeare.

DISTRICT COURT.
James Erwin Found Not Guilty Q
 Breach of the Peace.

James Erwin Found Not Guilty of
 Breach of the Peace.
 The case of James Erwin. charged with breach of the peace, occupied the attention of the jury in the dis trict court all morning, On November 22 Erwin was charged with interfering with young Italian who worked for 0'Brien the baker. It was alleged that while the Italian was driving the baker wagon across the railroad crossing in Bsooklyn Erwin seized the horse and led him down the track until the horse fell and was injured In the lower court Erwin was sentenced to thirty days in jail for drunkenness and six months for breach of the peace. After the Italian had testified this morning Attorney Kennedy. who appeared for Erwin. asked to have the evidence excluded as it did not prove breach of the peace. Arguments were then made by Attorneys Kennedy and Kellogg on the statute governing a breach of tho peace. Judge Bradstreet said he would allow the evidence to come ID, but that the mere fact of interference with the horse would not constitute a breach of the peace. Officer Brickel testi- fled to arresting Erwin at the time Of the offense. He said Erwin was drunk Err win himself said he had been drinking that day, but was not drunk. The wheels of the bakers wagon had caught in the tracks and he had to lead the horse down the tracks to get the wheels out. There was no objection on the Italians part and he oid not know why he was arrested. James Mccarthy, who was with him, cor roborated his story. Michael Mullaney, hagman at the crossing in question, knocked the states case into cooked hat by stating that the Italian was driving carelessly and had caught the wheels of the wagon in the track and Erwin only assisted in getting the wagon loose. He had got at his red flag when he saw the wagon caught. Erwin was not drunk at the time. Attorney Kennedy's argument was seathing and he asked that the jury should reprimand the lower court by bringing in verdict of not guilty. The jury were out twenty minutes when they returned with verdict of not guilty.
 The cases against simon Brown and P. H. Carroll were settled without trial.

Attorneys O'Neill and Terry Argue for
 the Waterbury Court House.
 At a meeting of the senators and repre- sentatives of New Haven county, held in Hartford to-day, the Waterbury court house matter was discussed. Attorneys O'Neill and Terry were among those present Mir ONeill stated that the popu- lation of the Waterbury district was one thirteenth of the states population and the grand list one-fifth of the county list. He said that it had beeu the unanimous opinion of the lawyers of the county for years that a new court house was neces- sorry Tn order to carry on the business of the courts in proper manner. The business of the district was increasing rapidly and lawyers now practicing in Waterbury are greatly ineonvenienced by being obliged to make many trips to New Haven, The judges, also, find the lack of court accommodations inconvenient. Attor- ney Terry agreed with all of Attorney O'Neilrs arguments and stated that as states attorney he was competent to say that court house was needed. The matter was taken under consideration and a decision is not expected for several days.
