attorney, MIR. Drew, who insisted that MS

that an alibi might be proven and the
young man yindicatcd before the eyes OF
the public
In the next instance the specific charge
against John II. Amont, John a. Green

attending q dog fight to melting and con

fine OF 50 is all that the law provides, and
Mr.. Pugh thought that the Otfense de

charge each could have been fined S25
and sentenced to one year In jail. They
had alrea dy deposited $40 as collateral
and the elder Green and Almont each put
up SIS additional and Thomas Green SO
more, which was regarded as forfeited and
the case against them dropped.
Miss Berry was there, too, and inter

New York, Dec. 30. Not much is known

Mrs Minnie Maddern Fiske will play all
next week at the Grand Opera House, pre-
secting LorImer stoddard's dramatization
OF Thomas fiardy's novel, "Tess OF tie
D'Urbeyilles." Mrs. Fiske stanGs to lay
by the judgment or the critics who have
seen her at the front of tn, list of American
actresses. Her genius is pronounced and
comparison aforementioned her with Duse and
Bernhardt. AS for the success OF Tess
and Mrs. Fiskes Characterization, it is
one of the very few prominently gre 1t
promises of this season. She plays at the
Grand, a popular-priced house as rule,
because she has refused the terms of he
theatrical syndicate and hence cannot play
in their thcaters. Mr.. Francis Wilson
found his friends loyal to him at tho
roomy and complete Ora nd, and Mrs.
Fiske Will probably find that the public
will hunt her out for the sa,;e OF the
great performance she has toorfer. Tess
as p0rtIa yeti by Mrs. Fiske, Is, OF course,
the dominating figure OF the pla Y, but the
other ciara cteTs are scarcely or less I'M
