Two arrests made by the police on Tues
day made a little work FOR the City Court
Yesterday morning. The two men arrest

The ease of state VS. Kelley was the
first called. Kelley Is a man nearly 80
years of age and an old soldier He has
formerly been an inmate of soldiers
home in the West and recently came to
this city. He entered plea of not guilty
to the charge through his attorney, V. A.
Billiard, and Grand Juror Macomber call
ed Officer Russell who testified that he
arrested the man and that he was intoxi-
Gated. There was no defence and Judge
Hawkins fined Kelley s. and the usual
costs. An appeal was taken and Mr.. Bull
lard became surety.
The other case was Of somewhat differ
ent character states Attorney Brown
prosecuted and the respondent had no at
torney but after returning to jail sent for
v A. Billiard with whom he had a con-
sultation. He pleaded guilty to utoXica-
ton and in response to questions said

here and had recently come from the
mono OF his grandfather in North Wll.iStor
He was sworn and disclosed on a pint OF
alcohol which his wife secured at the
agency in Winooshi for medicinal use. or

"TBE MERCHANT OF VENICE,

There are lyceum companies and other
lyceum companies. The name il evident
~ a good one for drawing purposes but IL
isn't always well to put TOO much reliance
on it. 1t may not be true that the mem
berS of the particular lyceum company
which presented Shukespeare's creates t
comedy, The Merchant of Venice" at the
opera house Tuesday evening are recent
graduates or possibly undergraduate
of Frohman school OF acting
as was currently reported Tues
day, but it is certain that they
ought not to be classed with many others
who have gone before them and who have
been seen in Burlington in finished pro-
auctions of Shakospeare's masterpi, Ces.
Four OF the company, Edouard D'Oize as
Shylock, Miss Fife Hext as Portia, Elmer
Bunham as Eassanio and VIII Clifford a
Ora tiano gave evidence of careful training
and painstaking effort, particularly in the
court scene. but the performance, as a
whole was not what II had been represent
ed to be and was therefore very oooily
received by the large audience. App ause
was bestowed very scantily although the
audience was quite ready to show its APP
probation of a good bit of acting, as was
the case in the court scene just referred
to. In short the advance representa- lions
were of so glowing a character that tho
audience was a very critical one and one
that was not satisfied with the perform
ance as a whole.
As has several times been the case this
winter the supply of programmes was sc
limited that many could not get one. The
opera house was even colder than the au-
dience and the use of wraps was necessary
for comfort.
