Newsboy's Change OF Clothes.

Samuel Robertson, a colored newsboy,
whose recent prosperity enabled him to
purchase a new suit of clothes, yesterday
went over to The river front near the foot
Of 18th street to change his garments. His
cast-off clothing was left on the river bank.
Sam returned to his newsboy companions,
but recklessly omitted to report his change
Of clothing to the police. Between s and
o'clock his discarded apparel was found,
and in the absence of an explanation the
police thought 1t possible the late owner
had jumped in the river.
Samuel Further, by whom the clothes
were found, carried them to the first pre-
cinct station, and the officers started an in
vestigation. A note book found in one of
the pockets Of the coat contained an ac-
count with newsboys, and it was through
this record that the police finally found
Sam, dressed In hts new suit of clothes"

PROFESSIONAL EARNINGS.
Decision That They Cannot He Placed
in Receiver. Hands.

Judge Hagner in Equity Court No. to-
day made a ruling of considerable inter-
est, deciding that the professional earn
ings of an individual cannot be placed in
the hands of a receiver pending suit in
equity to recover from the same the
amount of Judgment at law. The ruling
was made in connection with the case OF
John E. Taylor, interviewer, in the suit in
stituted by Clarence NJ Busch against
Corporal James Tanner. Judge Hagner
in his decision declined to appoint q re-
ceive-, as asked. Notice was given of an
appeal to the Court of Appeals.
In an amended bill of complaint filed
the 9TH instant, asking the court to appoint
a receiver to take charge of Mr.. Tanners
assets. the complainant explained that Oc-
tober %, 1855, he recovered Il judgment
against Tanner on the law side of the court
for $50, with interest and costs. The
judgment. il added, is unreversed, is
in full force and effect and has not been
paid or satisfied in any part or manner.
Continuing, the complainant declared that
Mr. amer is an attorney at law and prac-
tices in the courts of the District, the
Court OF Claims and particularly before the
several departments of the government, re-
ceiving therefrom considerable sum
yearly.
The complainant added that Mr.. Tanner
lives in great style and splendor in this
District: occupying as home premises
reasonably worth $4,000. The complain
ant went on to declare that Mr.. Tanner
is possessed of large income. and is suf-
fciently able to pay the judgment referred
to were he so disposed, but, he said Mr.
Tanner is insolvent far as execution
Is concerned and has property subject
at law to execution or which can be reach
ed by any known legal process.
The complainant In his bill next stated
that as an attorney before the courts and
departments Tanner has large sums of
money due him He is rapidly reducing
to possession and collecting the money it
was charged. and is disposing of and vast
ing the same TO the great damage of the
complainant. The latter therefore took the
stand that unless the court appointed a
receiver 10 take possession of and hold
the money until the cause could be decid-
cd there was great danger that he would
lose all the benefit from the suit
In demurring to the bill Mr. Tanner
among other things, declared that the court
was without jurisdiction in the premises
SET 1ortn- The demurrer was sustained by
Judge Hagner.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE. Alone in
London" with Miss Cora Tanner as the
star, which opened a weeks engagement at
the Grand Opera House last night, is ono
of the strongest meiodramas seen here for
long time The large audience which saw
1t was moved to tears more than once at
the hardships and sacrifices of the heroine
for her heartless husband 1t was thrilled
by the strong situations and Incidents Miss
Tanner lad shown her capabilities in Wash
ington before in the Sporting Duchess"
and the audience last night was not disap-
pointed in the manner she conducted her
self as star. A less capable actress would
have doubtless bean guilty o. overworking
the role, but Miss Tanner carried it cleverly
throughout. The four-act play tells the
story of simple country maid who marries
a villain and is taken by him to London.
In the big city she Is forced to earn her
own bread and suffer on account Of her I'M
principled husband. In All the different
parts she took Miss Tanner appeared to ex-
cellent advantage, showing that while she
is strong as an emotional actress, she pos
sesses no little talent as comedienne. The
star is supported by good company and
large one AS the villain, Charles Cam
field got all out of the part that was in 1t.
and Louis Massen as the old friend OF the
heroine ''up from Suffolk was excellent.
Miss Lenore Gordon, as Tom Chickweek,
the street gamfn, was far above the aver
age. The scenery Is good throughout, and
the scene in the third act where the hero
Inc is rescued from the sluice, Is realistic In
the extreme.
ACADEMY OF MUSIC.-Fanny Rice and

had Fanny Rice been given a play such
"At the French Ball. earlier in her career
she would now be almost at the head of
her own peculiar branch OF the ''profes-
sion;" but as it Is she Is making strong
bid for popularity In it, and from all APP
pearances and judging by the houses she
drew at her last engagement here and last
night she is succeeding admirably. AT the
French Balp' is a pleasing skit, with
moral that is well brought out and which
gives Fanny Rice unlimited opportunities
to show her many accomplishments. The
story Is well known by this time and does
rot need another telling. 1t only need be
said that Fanny Rice embraces all the
opportunities that are presented to her,
and makes out OF them as much fun and
refined humor as any one could wish. One
Of the most pleasing features of the whole
performance. and an entire novelty in Its
way, was the animated dolls manipulated

Branch" to Have a Complete
Passenger Service.
Two Daily Trains Including a Sunday
Run.

The officials ofthe Henderson Route"
have always been liberal with the peo-
pie of Breckenridge county.
Their latest act Of generosity has been
the placing OF a passenger run on the
"brancb."
According to their new plans passen-
ger train will make two round trips
daily from Fordsville to Irvington, thus
giving the people in the back part of the
county opportunity to make all through
passenger trains on the main line.
There will also be separate freight
run, two engines and two crews being
used on the branch.
This new service will be of immense
convenience and value to the people
along the line. 1t will allow them to
make trip to any point along the "Hen-
derson" and return the same day.
The liberality OF the railroad officials
will be greatly appreciated by the people
along the branch" road, especially so as
they are to have the benefit OF a Sunday
train and they will undoubtedly testify
as to their appreciation by increasing
their patronage.

ARMED
SOLDIERS
Must Be Kept in Havana for
q While.
The Poorer Classes In Cuba Stub
bornly Demand Independence.

The United States commissioners are
making their home on board the steamer
Resolute, anchored at Havana. Vi
course, they are daily visitors to the
peace council Gen. Butler, one of the
commissioners, sums up the situation in
the following manner
"rhe heightened representatives OF
Spanish and Cuban industries plead for
annexation, and are aiding the commits
sioners in every conceivable way in
gathering such valid evidence that will
go a long way in convincing the United
States that it is absolutely necessary to
place the island under control OF the
United States.
"The poorer classes are stubborn and
arrogant throughout the island, and de-
mand independence, pure and simple.
This creates friction and unnecessary de-
lay in reaching the conclusions that were
anticipated by all concerned in the fu-
ture of Cuba.
"rhe mutteriDgs OF the insurgents in
the country tributary to Havana would
suggest that it will be eventually neces-
sary to place a sufficient number OF
troops to protect the interests OF the
country at large. The influx of wealthy
Spaniards indicate a resumption OF busi-
ness. All important concerns in the
United States are capturing the most inn
portant industries that are available, be-
lieviDg that within few weeks the ex-
orbitant tax will be withdrawn.
"rhe conservative element is not 80 en-
thusiastic for hurried conclusions. In
fact, the commissioners, although guard
ed in their expressions, say that 1t will
require two or three months for care
full and judicious termination OF the al
fair, and intimate that at least two OF
three regiments should be sent as mil
itary representation, If nothing more.
1t is, OF course, poor policy to criticise
the chaos OF Havana, for the reason that
nothing but misery and want have pre-
vailed for the past two years among
those who were in the lower straits Of
life. They are even now rebellious, and
unless some positive methods are adopted
more trouble is sure to follow.

FARMERS AND
GOOD ROADS.
They Can Help Wonderfully In
the Cause.
By Using Little Common Sense and
Elbow Grease.

The individual farmer can afford 10 do
road mending on the same principle that
he repairs his fences and buildings A
land owner ought to feel as ashamed OF a
choked sluice or mud hole that can be
drained as neglected cattle or a display
of filth 1t is not necessary to wait for
the woodworking season TO come around
The most profitable common sense work
can be done little at time, If at the
right time.
Drainage is the beginning and the end
ofthe whole matter, II roads are to be
roads, not sloughs. Watering troughs
and hillside springs are the most COM
mon cause Of standing water, yet it is a
very simple thing to train the water in
the way it should go. A stone, a loose
board, chunk of mud washed down
against the end OF suice may choke il
up 80 that it is nothing but a public
nuisance. Five minutes work would
send the water rushing through it's pro-
per channel.
1t is not uncommon to see water fol-
lowing the wheel ruts for rods when a
man with half an eye can also see that
mere cut through the ridge at the edge
OF the road would lead the water into
the ditch or down a bank. Even q half

infest the highway, would work. double

ing to the farmer. II all such patching
were thus well kept up, the yearly toll
OF public service would count more and
more toward the good roads OF which all
are talking and dreaming. This view Of
the subject is no more than one feature
OF practical farming, intelligent economy

matter how many others are benefited.
