POLICE COURT DoINGs
Girl Fined $50 and Costs for Breach of
 the Peace

|
 the Peace.
 Lawrence Brann, a young man who made his first appearance in police circles some time ago, was before Judge Burpee ill the city court this morning and fined $5 and costs for in- toxication. Chief Egan stated that Brann collected $15 yesterday for his employer and he expected the latter would be in court to prefer a charge for theft. As the man did not appear no further action was taken. Michael Lane was up" on the old charge of breach of the peace and intoxication and he was sentenced to 120 days in jail. The bond in the case against Paul Lachance for assaulting Joseph Lakoyitch of Il North Leonard street. which was continued from yesterday morning, was called. Oliver Bransfield was the bondsman and the amount was $100. The case against Lakovitch for assaulting Lachance was conse- quently nolled on account of the ab- sence of the complainant. Mabel Will more, a colored girl, aged 19 years, was fined $50 and costs for breach of the peace. She pleaded not guilty and Special Officer Kiersted furnished the convicting testimony. The girls pa- rents, Dr. Poore and Superintendent Combellack of the Boys club testified also. The heavy fine was imposed at the request of Prosecutor Durant. It means about sixty days in jail.
 The case against Norah Coakley for breach of the peace was settled for $1, and n case against ''Sol, Boice for theft was continued to tomorrow morning. Early this morning Boice was arrested with a quantity of bed clothing in his possession. For some. time thefts of this character have been quite frequent. Only about q week ago two large bundles of clothing that had evidently been taken from clothes lines were found by some small boys in the rear of Trott's bake shop on Spring street. Officer Halpin ar rested Boice.

COMPANY G'Sl PLAY.
It is Novel in Illustration and Full of
 Sympathy.

Sympathy.
 It is doubtful if the American stage has ever offered more successful play than ssThe Girl I Left Behind Me-" which is to be presented at Polls the atre on Monday and Tuesday evenings by the amateur forces of Company G, under the direction of Thomas NJ. Ere ney and Attorney F. F. Lawlor. In reference to the play, it has always been source of wonder that so little use has been made iii narrative and dramatic fiction of what really consti- tutes the romance of American life. The East is the prose of American ac- tivfty, the. West it's poetry Frontier life, not the ideal one of Fenimore Cooper, but the real one, the records of which are to be found more in the archives of the war department than anywhere else. is full of picturesque ness and romantic beauty.
 The first three acts of the play are admirable in sustained Interest. It is picturesque, novel in illustration and full of human sympathy. In this p1ays the imagination of the audience is kept active the whole evening by appeals to it's senses Of sight and. hearing tue changes of light, the distant chant of the Indians nOnotonous in rythm but dreadful in import. the bugle calls and hundred other little devices of stage business make up a most complete pie f1lre -ifSFS+ ss

ACCOUNTING TONIGHT.
Getting Financial Standing for the k.
 of c. Fair.

The Knights of Columbus general committee will this evening hold their ante final meeting before the opening of the big union fair in City hall next Monday evening. At this meeting it is hoped the request for an accounting of season books will be held and the cash in possession of the sellers be turned into the treasury. This &C., counting is desired in order that the committee may get some definite idea of just where they stand financially.
 Each day new articles are being re ceived for distribution during the fair, and partial list of the offerings may be ready for publication tomorrow, possibly. The collection of articles has now reached such a number, and the articles themselves are of such handsome character, that the display will probably surpass anything of the kind ever seen in City hall. Many merchants, desirous of showing their appreciation of the work the Knights are engaged in, have contributed articles, and it is a fact that up to the present moment not a single article to be given away during the far has had to be paid for. In this matter alone the committee have done work that entities them to. the lasting grati- tude of their brothers in the order.
 A splendid program of events has been arranged for each evening during the week and there will certainly be no lack of amusement for all who at tend. Dancing will be the chief amusement, undoubtedly, but some ex- cellent vaudeville features have been arranged for, together with speaking and novelties of, various kinds. The fair, it is certain, will be grand sucs cess, both from the standpoint of en- tertainment and profit.

yiennese Mun..

A peasant woman in Vienna is sell dom seen in winter without her huff of dilapidated fur, writes traveller. She may carry a bod of bricks, or a shovel, or drag wagon with one hand, but the other will be secure from the weather. It is not an un- usual sight in the Austrian capital to see women working in the street, re- aairing pavements and making treuches, swinging pick and handling shovel in the most masterly fashion. These women wear almost any sort of costume that may be at hand. To their. backs are often strapped bas- kets containing heavy burdens, or mayhap the family cherub sw,1ng over the shoulders in a shawl. IN. I. Sun.

The following little anecdote, told by the queen herself, will show her in- dependence of character: Very fond of primroses, and finding none in the royal gardens, she sent word to have some planted. The gardeners, the queen said, made many objections, and finding, shortly afterward, that her wishes had not been carried out, she dispatched messenger, inquiring the reason. T suppose Queen Anne had none" she said, .'so they did not think it proper for me to have any: but l sent them word promptly that Queen Victoria would have some and she did.'-Century.

cause.it is a night that so many people
have to take this meal away from home,
and they expect it will be largely pa

advantage offered of dining well at such
a small cost.
