VERDICT FOR 5000.
Rendered by Jury Against. Dr.
Walters Today.
Miss Remington, the Plaintiff, Presented
Boquets 10 Jury.

The jury in the case Of Johanna Reming'
ton against DIR. Alexander Walters this noon
brought In verdict in favor Of the plaintin
for 500, the full amount sued for. DIR. Walters
denied the plaintiffs claim that he had made
falss representations about the standing OF
one Everett sherman erstwhile of Now York
tnat be borrowed 500 from Miss Reming'
ton 10 go after sherman TO New York and ge
back the s4OO. He had simply borrowed 500 OF
Miss Remington. The latter brought cboicel
bouquet of cut flowers 10 the court house this
morning and as IL proved hsrbinger OF good
luck she distributed the flowers among the
members Of the jury with the aid Of Deput v
Sheriff Johnson after the verdict had been re-
turned. The jurymen acted about as bashful
when they received the flowers as young
girl does when il is discovered first that she
has lover. Miss Remington, who had all
her interviews with Dr. Walters and MIR. Sher-
man down in her diary paid visit 20 Judge
Wilbur's court where the Mowry case was
being tried and perhaps the flowers may have
proved lucky omen for the prisoner.

To those who have seen little Irene Myers
in her brilliantly costnmed acts, her first ap.
pearance on Monday afternoon, at Ferguson
theatre as Ned" in the BLACK Flag" will
be the occasion of no little surprise. The
character is that of ragged urchn, who,
being in the power Of the captain of pirate
ship, is denied sufficient clothing to properly
clad his person. TIE role is difficult one,
even in the hands of an actor of mature
years as besides being very emotional the
plot Of the entire play devolves upon it. The
remainder of the cast is ably portrayed by
capable artists it being the purpose of the
management to give this clever little star as
strong support as it is possible to secure The
Meyers & Leyburne company will play a
weeks engagement at popular prices. The
prices for the Christmas matinee will be IL
and 20 cents, while 10, 20and 80 cents will
prevail at the evening performances.
