HE TOOK THE OTHER

The Black Patti Troubadous had a re-
Fiction before Squire Graves in the Po-
lice Court yesterday. The Squire had
seen the show from the front of the
house at each performance, and now 1t
was up to him to settle a little matter
that grew out of the show Itself.
Eta Davis was the star. She had
saved up her nickles and dimes for long
time in anticipation of ENJOYING the per-
fcrmance with her erstwhile best fellow,
John Creamer
SO when the appointed time came she
handed the accumulated price of two
seats in the gallery to John, VINO went
out to get the necessary pasteboards.
He got them, but never returned.
Then Eta scraped up some more funds
and HE'D her to the playhouse
There she saw John with her own eyes
sitting down in front of the gallery with
another girl. She bided her time, and she
didn't like the show,
Afterwards being near the door or exit
she got down to the pavement quick'
and 'layed" for John and the other glrl.
And what she did to the other glrl
was a plenty, and worth the $3.50 which
she had to pay in court yesterday,
