How Trustee Devine ''Camped on the
TraiI'' of Paul PaoIi.


How Trustee Devine 'sCamped on the
TraiI'' of Paul PaoIi.
City Trustee Devne's kindly nature
was aroused to a high degree OF anger
yesterday at what he regarded as little
less than an attempt at murder on the
part of an Italian vegetable vender who
sails under the high-sounding name of
Paul Paoi.
Mr.. Devine saw Paoli mounted on the
seat Of his wagon and lashing his horses
through the alley between Seventh and
Eighth, X and l. streets. with man
hanging 10 the bride of one of the horses
and liable at any moment TO be Iampled
to death If his hold on the bride should
break.
The man whose life was endangered
was William Smith. he claimed that
Paoii was indebted to him for several
hundred pounds OF cabbage, and he had
hoped to collect his bill by attempting to
hold Paoh's horses. But his attempt
was a dismal failure. aud as already
stated, be came near paying with his life
for his novel method Of collecting bill.
AS it was, be WAS considerably cut and
MANNED.
When Paoli succeeded in freeing his
horses from Smiths grasp he drove down
town at lively gait, but Smiths ayenger,
in the person OF Trustee Deyine, was at
his heels. The Trustee does not ride u
bike, so he had To depend on his pedes-
irianism to oyertake the son of Sunny
Italy, and he did it so successfully that
he had the satisfaction OF seeing him
landed in the city jail.
AT Third street. between j and X, he
overhauled the vender of cabbages and
other garden truck, and at the same
moment had the good fortune to meet
a Humane Society Oflieer, who arrested
Paoli on charge OF fastdrivng.
The latter's victim, Smith, was also
taken To jail and detained tor the dual
purpose OF SOLDERING up aud appearing as
a witness against Paoli.

by C. T. Dazey, and the company is that
of Jacob Lift. The manager says of it:
"A story of to-day, dramatically told,
faithful in its reflex of metropolitan
life, strong in its development of char
acter, lofty in sentiment, pure and
healthy in tone, and altogether valu-
able addition to the dramatic literature
of the stage. 1t is an epitome of mod
ern life, with its fierce struggles in the
business world contrasted with the
tender and gentle emotions and associ-
ations that cluster around the home"
The troupe is a very large one, and in
one scene the stage is crowded with
people. The scenery is special for the
piece, and is all new and handsome and
much Of it very novel in design. There
are any number of sensational scenes
and score of striking tableaux, we are
told. The piece has been well spoken
of by the press generally, and its scenic
and sensational effects much praised.
The plot concerns a story of trust and
treachery in business. A rich Mon
tanan comes to New York with his aunt
and two girls he has adopted as wards,
orphans of a friend. The Montanan is
simple and honest. He advances capt.
tai to save a bank owned by a friend,
and receives stock in the concern as Sc
curity. The manager of the institution
falls in love with one of the girls, whom
her guardian secretly loves also. To
better keep his secret he returns to his
Montana ranch, while his trusted man
ager proceeds to wreck the bank and
ruin the girl and put her out of the way.
She is saved in a novel and tragic man
ner by her guardian. Then follows a
run on the bank, story of intrigue and
treachery, and finally the righting of
wrongs. Throughout the play there is
a lively comedy vein. One critic writes
OF the piece: 1T is a capital, clear and
gent theater-goers and bids fair to
rank among the best efforts of Ameri-
can dramatists. Manager Lift has
done much to aid the author. He has
lavishly mounted the play, giving it a
scenic environment which is in perfect
taste, and complete even to the mi
