New York, Feb. ls.-The grand jury Of
She court of general sessions to-day hand
ed in the following preseutment:
Hon. Rufus b. Cowins, Judge general
sessions.
Dear Sir: The grand jury, acting upon
your instructions, have in addition to their
other duties carefully investigated and
considered the question of the admins
tration and personnel of the court of
general sessions and beg to report:
That from the testimony of the high
est, and We believe the most authentic
sources from which Information covering
the subject couu be derived. we can find
no sufficient cause for formal present
ment.
1T is true that evidence was given be-
fore our body that at least in two in
stances there appeared to be serious neg
lect in the performance of their duties on
the part Of some Of the subordinate court
attendants, but even in those cases sub
scquent and preponderating testimony
materially modified their wrong doings.
we believe, however. that the service
of the force might be improved. but it
seems to us that the competency and
bONGA VI NlAt li00llAAlS JuNScS u al SUI
flcient and should be exercised.
with reference TO the condition that
seemed to have disturbed the honorable
judges of the court of general sessions,
the grand jury do not feel that it was
either within the line of their instructions
or province to extend their inquiry. But
they do feel compelled to state, having
at heart the desire of the public interest
and most elevated judicial administration.
that in their judgment reliable and
efficient service can be best secured by
the appointment of the various court Of
hcers through the joint concurrence of the
several judges of this court"
Respectfully submitted,

\ MUSIC HALL ANNEX BURNED.
The Building Contained n Library of
1000 Volumes.


Buffalo n. Y. Feb 1S.-The Music
hall, the finest auditorium between New
York and Chicago. and the home of the
Orpheus, Saengerbund and German sing
ing associations Of this city, had a mar
row escape from total destruction by
fire this morning. At 12:45 o'clock PATROL
man Miles heard three explosions. sound
ing like giant fire crackers. followed by
flames bursting from windows on the
third floor of a wing that forms the
northeast corner Of the building. An
alarm was quickly sent in, but when the
hremen arrived the tames were in pos
session Of the whole wing. It looked at
that time as if the entire building was
doomed, but by dint of hard work, the
fiIomen at o'clock had confined the
flames to the library annex, which was
Quilted. The auditorium proper was not
damaged.
The annex was occupied on the first
floor by the library, which con-
tanned 1900 volumes valued at SIS, 900; on
the second floor by the Saengerbund par
lors and the upper floor by the janitor's
family. The latter had a narrow es>
cape. The total loss is varlously esti-
mated at from $4,000 to $50 600. The cause
Of the fire is supposed to have been
leakage of gas, which caused the ex-
plosions. Ten years ago the original mu-
sic hall was burned and two persons
lost their lives. The present structure
was erected at a cost Of $4,000.

more deplorable financial straits than
they were at the present moment.
1t was his reputation as mascot fully
as much as his remarkable talents which

Just as the curtain fell on the second
act Mr.. Freelance appeared behind the
scenes and received the rapturous greet
lngs of the company. Then Miss Liv-
Lngstone took him by the arm, detached
him from the little group which sur
rounded him, led him gently but firmly
into her dressing room, placed him on
her zinc trunk. and standing before him
with folded arms said, "Billy, what's
going to happen?"
"My DEAR" replied Mr.. Freelance
persuasively, Everything is all right.

to come back here and tell you so. We

by presence of mind which won for
her, on her exit, the first real applause
Of the evening.
Kitty Sullivan was, as the eminent
dramatic critic had observed, an old
hand at the business, despite the fact
that she was but years of age, for she
had been born and brought up on the
stage and was as much at home in the
presence of a great audience as an Or
binary child is before nursery. AS the
piece went on she realized that she was
making hit-a far greater one than
she had ever made beforehand, young

pieces and the bottom would drop out
of the whole play. I thought I'd speak
to you about it because Hardup has
caught new 'angel' and said some
thing to me about Kitty Bracebridge''-
eff that wolf puts her foot in this
theater began Miss Livingstone, but
Mr.. Freelance interrupted her by plac-
ing his hand over her mouth and say
ing: "Wait for me after the curtain
goes down, Pearl, and I'll talk to you
about it. Shadrach's waiting in the
Office, and I've got to give him Jolly
SO as to get the costumes out of him, but
I'll be back here after the last act. -
In spite of the storm outside and the
dispiriting atmosphere within the per-
Torrance given that night by the Jollity
stock company was notably brilliant
one, for the news had spread that there
was to be speedy change of bill, and
hope was once more in every members
breast. Mr.. F'reelance invited Miss Liv-
ingstone out to supper just as she was
on the point Of declaring that she would
not go on again unless she received ev-
cry cent Of the back salary that was due
her, and before they left the restaurant
she had meekly agreed to study the great
emotional role which had been intended
for Miss Bracebridge and to say nothing
more about back salary.
The next morning, in accordance with
call posted in the stage entrance, the
company assembled to hear the new
play read by the gifted Mr.. Freelance,
and such was that gentleman's elocu-
tionary power that when he laid the
manuscript aside expressions that ranged
from mere satisfaction to rapturous en-
thusiasm were heard on every hand,
and there was scarcely an actor or
actress present that did not feel conf
dent of a personal success in the new
production.
The reading over, Mr.. Freelance took
Miss Livingstone. Mr.. Borders and one
or two other rebelliOus spirits aside, and,
as he expressed it in subsequent inter-
view with Mr.. Hustle, "stiffened their
backbones" with the assurance that ev-
erything was all right and that the
piece was to be done on Christmas eve
