AUSTRALIAN THEATRES.
High Prices and Fees Are Not Pecu-
Iiarities of Their Management.

From the Chicago News.
The best theatres in Australia are
usually built on English plans, but are
managed more like American play
houses. The prices charged are much
less than those cheerfully paid in Eng
land. Dress circle seats or stalls, which
bring 81. so in London, will not sell for
more than SIPS in Melbourne or sgd
ney. 1t is no use asking more. lnde-
pendent Australians will not pay 1t.
Australian gods" are perhaps little
less rowdy than English ones. but the
better dressed portion of the audience
is objectionably laxative, frequently
chatting loudly right through a per-
formance, even when the drama played
is serious and presumably demands
thought.
Evening dress, always seen in Eng
lish theatres. is rarely worn by Aus
tralian play-goers, except on first" oc-
casions and on Saturday nights, when
colonial society usually turns out In
force. The Australian audience is, as
a rule, cordial and demonstrative. Sell
dom asked to decide on the merits OF
an entirely new play. 1t accepts with
enthusiasm those productions which
come to 1t already stamped with the
hallmark of English or American ap'
proval.
Fees are unheard of in Australian
theatres. and managers never make use
of the "claqueur." Kissing and hootine
are unknown, and a spirit of good-na'
tured tolerance prevails.

W&$t Side and City Suburban

a charge Of malicious slander, pre-
ferred by Mrs. Elizabeth Ord. Both
omen reside on Quay avenue. The
hearing developed the following griev-
arces On Tuesday afternoon, while
Mrs. Ord was passing down Bromley
avenue she alleges that Mrs. Dean.
while standing on her daughters porch
made several remarks in loud voice
and shook her fists. These remarks
would lead those within hearing dis
stance to believe that Mrs. Ord was
not virtuous woman. The alderman
decided that Mrs. Dean must not say
such things again and should pay the
costs, Mrs. Dean refused to pay the
costs, signifying her desire to take the
case to court. She was accordingly
held in 5000 bail, which was furnished
by John II. Fellows.

was issued for her and Deputy Sheriff
Colborn escorted her to the county jail.

Some Damage.

A box of shavings in the fourth story
of No. 916, brick building in Centre

ball and crashed into the telegraph and
other wires in Oakford court.
Several of the wires were torn down
