Those who remember Mr.. John Stewart
know that ne was not only most patri-

made in those terms

ed American actress Amelia Bingham in
her latest success
"a MODERN LADY GODIVA.
Amelia Bingham comes next week in
her new play and latest success, "The
Modern Lady Godiva" by Frederick
Schrader and Lloyd Bingham.
This play is "a cleverly contrived roman
tic comedy with plot but family remi-
niscent of the real heroine of Coventry,
by presenting it in up to date phase and
working out the motive and womanly
woman with essentially modern ideas.
The play was produced during the
Chicago engagement and met with uni
versal praise from the Western press.
Miss Bingham assumes the title role with
all the grace of that artistic impressive
ness which has made her representative
in her art.
The company is excellent including w.
l. Abingdon, George Sudenham, John E.
Kellard, Frank Holland, Hugh Cameron,
J. G. Edwardes, Beresford Lowell, Frank.
lin Richards, Mason Simpson, Harry
Hopkins, Edward Jordan, Harry Brown,

The production is notable one not only
in its representative company but in the
attractiveness of costumal and scenic
environment.

.Justicc Jones' Court.

On Wednesday of last week Justice
Jones held criminal court session, be-
ing the occasion of trying Marshall AM
brose for slashins a cow belonging to
Edith Miller and the trying of VIM. Waga-
man and Raymond Kindle for dynamiting
on old stick wagon belonging to George
Knott and destroying the property Of
Edith Miller on the 18th of August, near
Deerfeld
The testimony adduced was conflicting
in a sense; Knott and Mrs. Miller testi-
flying that they both saw the boys at the
buggy few minutes before the explo-
sion occurred and Knott following, but
failed to overtake them. Wagaman's
fainter testified that the boys were in
bed at his home when the explosion &C.
Cured. The boys swearing that they
were not away from Wagaman's home
on this particular evening.
The Justice deciding that there was
not sufficient evidence in either case to
hold for the action of the Grand Jury the
accused were dismissed.
There is evidently bad lot somewhere
who would indulge in such reckless past
time as dynamiting property, and, no
doubt more will be heard from the mat
ter. Bad blood evidently exists between
number of parties in that neighborhood.

States Attorney represented the State,

Trolley Lines First Excursion.

The first excursion on the W., F. & G..
Railway was run on Labor Day monday
last) and the success was most crafty
ing. Trains were run all day from Mar
ket street to as far as the rails were laid
about mile west of Mr.. Kemp's resi-
dence, a distance of 81 miles from Fred
erick.
Over 1900 people were carried, and as
many more would have gone if accommo-
dations were had. Three coaches were
filled to overlooking on each trip, and
every one returned enthusiastic over the
fine ride and beautiful scenery along the
road. The officials at Montevue were
kept busy showing visitors through the
institution as it gave number of people
an opportunity to visit that place.
A regular schedule will be maintained
from this time forth. The road will be
very popular one as was demonstrated
on this occasion.

Decision Tn Favor Of Mr.. Waeschc.
Mr.. L. R. Waesche brought suit before
Justice Jones against Charles j. Rams
burg of Lewistown for SOS for grading
cart which Mr.. Ramsburg got from Mr..
Thropp's premises at Catoctin, recently.
Mr.. Thropp claimed the cart and Mr..
Waesche also claimed it. Mr.. Ramsburg
being a stake holder, the suit was brought
to determine the ownership. The testi-
mony aduced by Mr.. Waesche was to the
effect that he bought and paid for the
material as well as paying for the labor
in building it. Mr.. Thropp's contention
being based on the fact that it was part
of lot of old machinery and chattles at
