The mayors matinee yesterday morn

titled, I'VE will meet you again The

ton were all beyond his power of juris-
diction, and in each one he says, ITO the

thoroughly satisfied as we'll as His

His Honor says "To jail you must go for
chicken stealing or deposit bond OF

also pleased His Honor so much that he
gave the performer, Chas Addison, q
white corn save agent, an opportunity
of showing his art in Jail or depositing a
bond of $780, which he could not give.
Act third. This was rendition of q

of the attorneys for Haywood declined

David Bass died and left his son, Mr..
