Hillyers "Wonders" Co. appeared be-
fore splendid house last night in spite
of the inclemency Of the weather, and
those who attended were not disap-
pointed IN the least, the programme was
laughable, amusing and interesting, the
Hillyers gave one of the best perform.
ances In their line Newberry has ever
seen, the mind reading and cabinet
work being unsurpassed, the entire
show was most creditable. Nine. Hill
lyer worked with such ease and grace
that she won the admiration of all who
saw her. She is certainly an artist out
OF the ordinary. Nothing but praise
could be heard from everyone who at
tended. The gifts distribu ted were all
handsome and costly. The Hilly re-
certainly gave the people their moneys
worth last night, the house should be
crowded tonight. A change of pro.
gramme was announced. The leading
prize tonight will be a handsome gold
watch, and everybody attending will
receive present free of charge. The
performance is strictly moral in every
detail. Price of admission Ia 15c, Csc

MAVERICK STORY DENIED.

We would be the first to be no, :. led of any such action by the Briti.l government. Not a single fact has arise, to give the slightest qualification of the story or make the release of Mrs May. brick more probable than heretofore. Tn, official denial of the pardontng of Mrs maybrick would have been issued earllci put for the red tape rules of the hom. ofi!ce, which alone of all the British d, oartments requires that press inquire, shall be made in writing and answered through the mails The only exception fnown was made this afternoon for tht benefit of the Associated Press.

EXCITEMENT IN
 WILSON BUILDING Money Lender and Policeman Play Principal Roles in a
 Warm Episode

Great excitement was created in the Wilson building at midnight last night in which a supposed burglar, a justice of the peace, a money-lender and a police man played their respective parts, and although a number of shots were fired, no one was hurt.
 About 12 o'clock Justice w. T. Ward, while going to his apartments in the building, noticed the window in the loan office of Solomon J. Brintley broken, and supposng that burglary had been com mitted, hastened to MT. Brintley's room and informed him of the fact. MT. Brint- ley hastened to his office, gun in hand.
 About this time Officer Smith, who was crossing the street near the building, was informed by strange man that fight was in progress in the building, and rushing to the entrance saw a man at the head of the stairs who fired upon him. Supposing that murder had been committed and that the man was en- deavoring to escape, the officer returned the fire and finally reached the front door, after Brintiey had emptied his revolver.
 Explanations were in order. by which time large crowd of persons, attracted by the shooting, had gathered.
 MT. Brintle stated to his audience that when he reached the first floor he saw burglar coming out of his office. He saw that he was white and of large stature, but could not say whether he was beard ed or clean shaven. Thinking that the thief might get the drop on him Brintle stepped aside into a dark hall so as to shoot him in the back. That Is about all he claimed to remember as to the man whom he saw leaving the office.
 The theory of some of the policemen and bystanders was that If burglar had been In the loan office 1t was earlier in the evening; that MT. Brintley did not see him, but only thought he did. In other words, that MT. Brintiey had dreams. At any rate, at haff past 12, af- ter MT. Brintley had returned to his bed room, Officers Reese and McDaniel called and arrested him for shooting at Officer Smith. Without any ado the prisoner went with the police to headquarters and reported the particulars to Captain Weir. The Captain entered the charge of reckless shooting and released him on a small bond.

Cincinnati. February 1l.-The hearing application for permanent injunction against the Jeffr.es-Huh,in contest here next Friday night closed shortly after C o'clock tonight. Judge Holister at once announced that he would reserve his de- cision until Il o'clock next Thursday. This means that the present suspense will continue until the day before the date fixed for the contest All the ar engagements at the big hall and else where are completed and the sale of tick cts continues brisk. The passes between counsel today were very bitter. The old riots of 1884 were reviewed by Harmon, to which Rettinger and Wilson replied most bitterly. The most remarkable ad- dress was by Gustavus Wald, who as representative German, insisted that he did not represent any creed or class, but the best interests of secular government. \ Most of the clergymen of the city were In the courtroom. Wald turned to them when he said that neither he nor any member of his family belonged to any church and that none of his kindred for generations have belonged to any church, and that he was opposing the prize fight for the interest of the State.
