WALLACE'S CIRCUS
Immense Crowds Attended the Two
Exhibitions Yesterday

The great Wallace circus arrived yester
day, according to program. The morning
parade started promptly on the advertised
time, and created the usual excitement
among the juveniles and drew the usual
crowd of spectators on the streets. 1t was
long procession, with the time -honored at
fractions, and several new features to add
variety.
The big tent was filed to the full extent
of the seating capacity at the afternoon per-
formance. In the evening there were over
eight thousand people present, and hundreds
were turned away who could not gain ad-
mittance. In the list of attractions there
were many of the regulation features that no
circus would be complete without, but the
new ones were fully up to the bills The
Nelson family, consisting of nine members,
in their great challenge act, gave a remark
able athletic exhibition. The bicycling ex-
perts and the trapeze performers drew
rounds of applause with their. thrilling and
daring feats. Trilby, the singing mule
displayed unusual voice culture. and the
antics of the collection of clowns created
amusement for the crowd.
The menagerie contains number of beau
tiful and curious specimens of the ami
NAL and feathered creation. AS a whole,
the performance and collection throughout
are much above the average, and quite worth
taking the children to see. There will be
two performances today in the three-ringed
canvas, at the corner of Main and Washing
ton streets, at 2 and 8 p. m.

A NOVEL CONTROVERSY
Writ Of Review on Hearing to Test
Justices Jurisdiction

The cause of Louie Caranzano VS.. Oresti
Lazaroni came before Judge York for hear
ing yesterday upon a writ of review. Suit
was brought for Sl43, balance alleged to
be due for services as huckster of fruit at
sis per month, and was tried by Justice
Young recently. An answer and cross-com-
plant alleged that all money due plaintiff
had already been paid, and asserted that the
action had been brought in the wrong coun-
ty. 1t further set up counter claim for
S62, money loaned, and 800, the reasonable
value of board and lodging furnished, the
prayer being for Sl62, for which amount
Judgment was ordered by Justice Young on
default of plaintiff. This judgment was
afterward set aside, on the grounds that the
same was counter claim and judgment
was ordered for plaintiff in the sum of S64.75,
as damages. 1t was from this Judgment that
a writ of review was obtained, bringing the
matter before Judge York in the superior
court, affidavit of Lazaroni being filed that
Justice Young had exceeded his jurisdiction
The controversy now hinges upon the
of defendants answer. II the
court holds that the amount alleged to be
iue by defendant was in the nature of
counter claim, then it will be held that the
Justice erred when he rendered judgment
or plaintiff. If, however, it should be held
that the claim was made in cross-complaint,
then the action of the lower court will be
sustained. The cause was continued, in or
der to allow the attorneys in the case to file
points and authorities dealing with the is
sues in controversy.

Law on Quail Is Off Today-The Birds
Should Be Numerous.

The quail season opens today, but
from the iuiciness of the clouds it is
not likely that there will be very
large number of Nimrods in the stub
bic fields, until next week. Even if it
should clear up this morning, it win he
extremely wet and disagreeeable
tramping through the brush and over
the fields today. The hunter who puts
OF his first quail shooting of this sea
son till Monday, win be wise.
1t is said that the family of bob
White is numerous one this season,
and there should be good sport with
his descendants, according to the ideas
of the knowing ones. 1t seems, indeed,
that there should be some quail in the
fields this season, for the game COM
missioners liberated 100 dozen last year
in Worcester county, and If the present
season has been any way favorable
for breeding, there should be some very
good shooting for the next few weeks.
AS a general thing, quail shooting IN
this section is never very satisfactory,
and does not compare, in the opinion
Of the local gunners, with that of the
other game birds that frequent Wor-
cester covers.
The cartridges are becoming more
and more Of an attraction 10 Worcester
gunners as the leaves begin to get off
the bushes, and some very good bags
are being made. In general the birds
are reported as being more than usu-
ally numerous this season, although
they seem to be a trife wilder than
commonly is the case in this neigh
borhood.
