A large audience numbering not
less than four hundred people at
tended the performance of the
Olympia Opera Company at the
park auditorium last night. The
bill for the evening was "El Cap
itan," one of the funniest operas
that has ever been written. 1t is an
exceptionally strong bill and af-
forded splendid field for the full
est exercise of the abilities of that
versatile comedian, Edward Eagle
ton. In the title roll last night Mr..
Eagleton was ably supported by
Miss Lottie Kendall, Miss Therese
Barker, Mr.. Carrick Major, Harry
Lightwood, f. l.. Weston and a cho-
rus of well trained voices. In point
of stature MIR. Eagleton is ad-
mirably adapted to the role of Ell
Captain and he portrayed this char
acter in a most admirable manner.
He has a fine basso voice and his
singing was exceptionally good.
Mr.. Lightwood, that clever little
comedian who made himself so pop
ular here last winter, won new
favors in his splendid work in the
comedy roles. AS Estreldaaz Miss
Lottie Kendall made a happy hit
with the audience, and Miss The
rese Barker was fascinating in the
role of Princess MarganZa. The fe
male portion of the Olympians was
greatly strengthened by Miss Lu
cile Deval who has an unusually
clear contralto voice. Miss Deval
is a graduate of the Cincinnati Col
lege of Music and this is her first
season as an operate singer. AS
tenor singer f.. l.. Weston has few
superiors and his work last night
was of "A highly meritorious charac-
ter. AS an Interpolation in the sec
ond act he sang "In the Shadow of
the Alamo" and received a hearty
encore. This beautiful song was
written about two years ago by Mr..
w. II. Machette, the cOmpany's
pianist The performance through
out was a most creditable one and
the Olympians won many new
friends among the theater lovers of

A plan is on foot to enlarge the
capacity to considerable extent of the
Ann Arbor shops in this city. The ma.

about two'thirds. an addition of 50x14C
feet being planned.
Work is to be begun as soon as pos
sible. John Mcbride, of Owosso, Will
have the contract for the construction
The addition will make room for
several more machnists, and is of a.

Watson is Confident.

Frank H. Watson, of Owosso, one of
the leading candidates for the republi-
can nomination for attorney general,
is at the Griswold House. He believes
that he can beat Mr.. Blair outi the
convention and Mr.. Blair seems to be
his only antagonist at the present time.
Watson expressed sorrow for George
E. Nichols, who was expected to be'in
the race, but who on account OF his
unfortunate connection with the
bribery cases in Grand Rapids decided
10 withdraw.
There is only one thing that bothers
Watson in this candidacy and that Is
the uncertainty of the Bliss cohorts
sticking to him. He is not certain o
the Bliss crowd, although many Bliss
men have told him that they will be
with him all the time. At the last con-
vention Watson came very near pluck
ing the golden apple,-Detroit Journal

1T CAUGHT THE JURY.
But Shiawassee Attorneys Plea Didn't
Pass Supreme Court.

Lansing, Mich, Jan. 2S.-In revers
ing the judgment Of the court below
and ordering new trial in the Shia-
wassee county case of John j. Atherton
VS.. Aaron Defreeze, the supreme court
took occasion in an opinion handed
down today to remark that 'the pro.
ceedings from the beginning to the end
OF thu trial constitute comedy of
errors, rather than the orderly trial of
law suit F" Among the instances cited
in support of the comedy of errors
observation, were the following re-.
marks made by the attorney for the
defense in his address to the jury:
81 have done my duty by the old
man and am going to turn him over
to you now. l will justsay to you right
now that this is an important matter to
that man. He may be like an old horse
turned out into The street. Your YER.
dict may save Finn, Give him an oppor.
tunity to .eafn an}honest living. = = =
Now, let me ask you, boys, mercy" ~
Iuconcludipg itss opinion the court
says that as long as attorneys will
resort to such methods, upjustifiable
either in law or ethics, courts have no
alternative but to set the verdict aside.

Hilderbrant Fined $50.

George Hilderbrant was arrested
Saturday afternoon on the charge of
annoying and insulting unprotected
women about the streets at night. The
outrages have continued for several
months, but Hilderbrant was undetected
until Friday evening, when he was
chased and recognized by City Assessor
James H. Laverock.
He had just insulted young lady,
member of the Episcopal choir, who
was on her way to practice at the
church, and who escaped from him
only at the doors of the edifce. Hilder.
brant pleaded guilty under the city
ordinance to being disorderly person,
and was fined $50, the maximum
penalty, by Justice NJ. McCaughna.
He was positively recognized by at
least one of the dozens whom he an
noyed, but owing to the unpleasant n o.
toriety which would attach to the case,
none of the ladies will swear out war
rant. If he was arrested on such q
charge, and not under the ordinance,
the matter would become a Circuit
Court case, and Hildebrant would stand
chance of going up for term of
years.
Now that he has been exposed, it is
thought he will not be so bold in the
future, although women without male
escort will doubtless be as timid as ever
about venturing about the city at night.

Land is Purchased.

The thirty-nine acres of land selected
as sugar factory site some months

Burt's checks for $4,000 closed the deal
on Monday. If the city wishes, at any
time, to purchase this land, it can do so
by giving Mr.. Burt $4,000 and five per
cent interest on his investment. The
purchase is token of good faith on his
part, and points to the erection of a
factory this summer.
