gagement Last Night

Mabel Paige and her company closed
their weeks engagement with last
nights performance. This charming
actress seems to grow in popular IA
vor in Wilmington. On every occasion
she has been greeted by large-urusu-
ally large-crowded houses, not only
at night performances but at the mat
inees. Miss Paige and her company
will be always welcomed to this city.
One of the pleasant sights witnessed
yesterday after the matinee was Miss
Paige coming from the Academy OF
Music surrounded by children. She IS
not only a favorite with the older ones,
but a favorite with the children.
Last night after the performance the
Elks of this city had the company rs

that the tax should be paid on taHm

The question passed on at a recent
meeting of the. board Of county COM
missioners as to whether Mr.. Hugh Mac

will also be taken UP. The commlS-
sioners on the advice of their attorney
decided that Mr.. MacRae was nos a

not liable for county axes All or the
above cases are OF considerable I'M
portance.
The matter of having all the taxes

Is IN JAIL
Judge Has Been Noted for Turning
In False Fire AIarms-Was Caught
in Act Of Leading Horse Out OF
IN-Uaims That Horse Was just
Following Him-Judge VIII be
Given a Preliminary Trial Before
Mayor Springer Monday.

.ka Judge is again in the tolls OF the
ksM, being charged this time with the
larceny OF a horse. He was arrested
East night and will be given a prslimi-
azry trial before Mayor Springer on
EAs1dzy.
Fsa7cemaa Rodedck met Judge coming
.es1t OF a lot on Water street leading a
szrse. Tae officer said the horse had
a bride ON and that Judge was lead
Ing him out of h gate when he ap-
rroached. Judge was arrested by the
akscer and carried to police headquart-
CTS He denied stealing the horse or
making an attempt to do SO. saying he
was only passing through the lot and
ehat the horse attempted to follow him
eat Of the gate. He also denied having
q birdie on the horse.
the horse belonged to a man by the
naHe OF Ziegler.
IL seems to be impossible for this man
to keep out OF trouble. After being in
jail about two weeks Judge was re-
leased Friday giving the $50 bond re-
CURED of him to keep the peace for six
zonths. The offenses Judge has been
charged with have been of many n9-
Ezres, but the principal offense against
hfm has been the turning in of false
Gre alarms.
It gems that Judge cannot help turn
Ing in false alarms. He has been sent
IN the county roads for it, but 1t did
nd break him..
Judge made the remark soon after
xs4fing out Of Jail that being in Jail
Christmas he could not enjoy himself
sat that he vas now going to hav d
fine time. Poor fellow how quickly
his hopes blasted. He will prob
aaay be bound over to the superior
% aeart and this will mean that he will
have to remain in Jail until the last OF
January, if no longer.
Judge said last night that he beltev-
9 u the people of Wilmington wanta
d hang him or keep him in Jail ell
the time.
Judge was put in Jail about tive
weeks ago for threatening to kill some
his people. 1t was not believed thai
he could give the $50 bond reQu PED

but those made this yea seem to be
lasting very we'll. judging from the
scarcity of offenders in the police court
It is an unusual thing for New Years
day to pass and the police not to make
q single arrest, but such was h case
Friday. There is probably not anotheI
city in the state with such a record.
When Mayor Springer opened his
court yesterday there was lone case
to be disposed of. The offender was a
arrested Thursday afternoon for being
drunk and disorderly. He was fined
$40 and the cost.
