THE OCEAN VIEW BILL.
THE PERFORMANCE PLEASED A
LARGE AUDIENCE LAST
NIGHT


An audience that tested the pavilion
to it's capacity last night enjoyed the
bill presented at this model summer
theatre. Every feature served to give
satisfaction to those who were not in
clincd to be too critical and to expect
every number TO be Il headliner.
The performance opened with Pro-
fessor Thompson's dogs, these CANNES
having been secured in place of those
of Herbert. The latter's educated dogs
met with an accident, which prevented
the trainer from bringing them here.
Professor Thompson's CANNES did the
usual, tricks, and amused the audience
for 20 minutes or more. The Fauvette
Sisters. in their acrobatic work. pre-
scented an act that seemed to please,
and Lawrence and Huntington. when
they finished their turn with
"Bowery Boy and Girl'specialty. were
heartily encored.
C;cnaro and Theol-a man and wo-
man-did an unusually clever contor-
ton act, and made decidedly one of
the hits of the bill. Maddox and
Wayne, in n bit OF burlesque. We're
more than good. and their act was the
laugh winner of the program.
Two performances are given each
week day, commencing at 4:3O and $50

Supreme Court OF North Carolina
May 20. 1900
A LANDLORD WHO TAKES pos
SESSION OF THE TENANTS
CROP AND SELLS IT, AND FAILS
TO ACCOUNT TO THE TENANT
FOR HIS HALF THEREoF,1s NOT
GUILTY OF ENTERTAINMENT
UNDER CODE. SECTION 1o14.
The court says:
The defendant stands indicted
under Code, Section 1914, for imbezzle
inent. That section declares "if any
oincer'agent, clerk, employee or servant
VI any corporation, person or co-part-
nersnlp shall embezzle or
Irauuuiently convert to his own USE or
Snail take, make way with or secrete.
with intent to embezzle or fraudulent
~ convert to his own use any money,
goods or other chattels, bank note,
check or order for the payment of
money ETC., belonging to any other
person or corporation, which
shall have come into his possession or
under his care. he shall be guilty of
Ielony. The evidence is that Young.
the prosecuting witness. cultivated the
defendants land and was to pay one
half of the crop; that defendant took
possession of the crop and sold it. The
tobacco belonged to Keith and Young
and the proceeds of sale belonged to
Keith and Young, and Keith has never
paid Young his share ofthe proceeds.
Is this embezzlcment? AS n crime,
embezzlement Is unknown to the COM
mon law. a fraudulent appropriation
to ones own use of the money or
goods of another was only n breach of
trust, remediable by civil process only.
AS a criminal offcnse, embezzlement is
q &c
felony or misdemeanor. as such stat
utes may declare. Our legislature has
declared in several instances that mis-
appropriation of the mony or goods
OF another with intent to embezze the
same shall be an indictable ofrense,
and has declared 1t to be n felony in
some cases and misdemeanor in
others. They are found in our Code.
Lessor and lessee are not partners
Code. Section 174D; possession of crops
deemed vested in lessor I'd. Section
1i5D when the lessee is deprived of the
actual possession of his crop. he is
left to his civil remedy I'D. Section
l515) Upon the facts in this case the
defendant cannot be treated as an
Officer. agent, clrk. employee. or SER
want" of his tenant. They are joint
owners of the crop. with possession
deemed to be vested in the defendant
landlord. The defendant has sold the
crop. and has the proceeds in his pos
session. His failure and refusal to
pay the tenant his share is n breach
of trust as a q common law. No statute
has made it crime, either as a
felony or misdemeanor. The ndct-
ment charges that the defendant was
intrusted with money and check by
the witness proceeds of the sale), and
willfully, unlawfully. fraudulently. and
feloniously appropriated the same to
his own use with intent to embezzle
and convert TO his own use the said
money and check. This, as we have
said, is only a breach of trust at COM
mon law, and we have no statute de-
clarng II to be n crime. The bill of
indictment charges no criminal offense
reversed.
