VERDICT IN AueUR WILL CASE.

l VERDICT IN AUGUR WILL CASE. | Mrs. Marie Augur, widow of Jacob Heiteman Augur of Fair Haven got a verdict in her favor yesterday in the appeal from probate of Dr. George A.. Augur of the Sandwich Islands, which has been heard for two wekes now be- fore Judge Roraback of the superior court Judge Roraback gave his charge yesterday morning, and within an hour and half the jury returned to the court room saying that they had agreed upon verdict for Mrs. Marie Augur,
 thereby giving her the estate left by
 Harriet M. Augur.
 owing to the form of the verdict. as drawn by the court, one juryman pre- ferred to have differently worded doc ument and this was made out by the instructions of Judge Roraback. It seems that eleven of the jurymen had decided that Harriet M. Augur never made will while the remaining mem Der believed that although a document had been drawn, it either had been de stroyed by Mrs Harriet M Augur, or on the other hand, had not been legally attested to. With a new verdict which simply found judgment for the appel lee and made no mention of the will, the jury agreed immediately, and then returned to court

Grand Opera House

The American Girl" which is the offering at the Grand Opera House to- night, tomorrow night and Saturday night, with matinee Saturday, is thor oughly good play, with considerable plot and the happy mixture of sentiment and comedy that charms an audience from parquette to gallery. It is the story of a trusting wife, persecuted by the inevitable villain, separated from her husband, but struggling bravely with her two children against adversity and false report meeting with timely friends in Colonel Bolter the American hustler, and Sir John BalfOur, the Eng fish gentleman, and eventually tri- umphing and finding home and husband again. The action is extremely smooth, the situations and denOument dramatic, but natural and easy, and in the hands of the company presenting it the play is a genuine treat throughout. In the character of Ross Bolter George F. Hall is winning golden opinions everywhere He is the central figure in the play and does the part with sort of breezy western Americanism that catches his audience for keeps The supporting company is good throughout. and par ticularly interesting is the acting of two child artists who play their parts with all the ease of their older associates.
