freshness like a wind from the
mighty Tyrolean mountains. The
piece is superbly staged, each act
with special scenery. Even in this

stage scenery seems to be alive

THE BARNETT CASE.
A Nice Point that was Settled by
an Acquittal.

al hcQ ulttdl.
Deputy United States Marshal
Leblanc was wired on last Satur-
day by the United States marshal
at San Antonio, Texas, to arrest
and send Eugene Barnett, of rail-
road ticket fame, there instanter.
The marshal could not comply
with the order received because it
would have been violation of the
law. Before prisoner can be re-
moved from one district to another,
he must first be arraigned before
the United States commissioner
where arrested and placed under
appearance bond. So far, this
was done in the case of Barnett.
But when the warrant was sent
here from the courts at San An
tonic for his arrest, the day of
trial by an omission of the court
clerk, was left out. and consequent
ly the bond given by him did not
state any specific time when he
would have to appear for trial at
San Antonio. Before he could
now be removed from this district
it would be necessary to secure an
order of removal from the United
States Circuit Judge presiding in
this district.
However, since the receipt of the
above telegram, Walter Barnett,
brother of Eugene Barnett, has
been tried at san Antonio on
similar charges for which Eugene
was wanted to answer to, and
acquitted. Consequently the mar
shall Of San Antonio wired the
United States marshal here last
evening that he was no longer
needed and not to make the arrest.
