In a suit before Magistrate Hollis
yesterday. in which the Equitable
Guarantee and Trust Company sought
to dispossess Ambrose McVey for fail
ing to pay his rent for a stable in De.a-
ware avenue near Tatnall street, the
magistrate decided against the COM
pany. McVey had a lease Of the stable
but when a part of it was torn down to
make way for the new hall of the
Colored Odd Fellows. he declined to
pay further rent under the lease. as he
contended he was entitled to the use of
the part torn down.

Quality Street" the new play in
which Maude Adams will appear I'm
this city next Monday night, has much
that commands admiration and COM
mends it TO the judgment of persons
who hold that the theatre should In
part at least. be representative OF the
intellectual. the refining, the elevating
and the inspiring. Primarily. IL is good
literature. The lines are not mere
word-jugg.ing. They bear a recogniza-
bic and important relation to the char
aotefs, the circumstances in which they
are implicated. the society they repre-
sent and the period Of the story: and
they are written by an author who
knows tho syntax Of his native lam
guage Surely these facts ontitle us
to class the dialogue of Quality Street"
as literature, and provide us with a
legitimate reason for congatulating
our theatre-gOers on the opportunity
OF facing teacher who is equipped for
teaching In an important branch OF the
general education. 1t is indeed time
that the stage began 10 think about re-
asserting her old educational dominion.
But underlying this literary expert
ness are other things that make for
excellence in Mr.. Barries work. II has
vein OF tenderness and manly senti-
ment that appeals TO the best and
gentlest traits OF being. IL Is an ex-
quisitely drawn picture of manners
and the adroit handling of character
and incident is an exhibition OF good
workmanship that could not be over
looked. The humor that pervades Il.
in spite of It's sometimes strenuous
grief-which, happily, is never more
