AMUSEM ENTS.
1.-THE Little Madcap."

The Harcourt Comedy Company pre-
scented last night at the Opera house
the well and favorably known play
1.-The Little Madcap." AS usual May
Melvin was cast in the leading female
role and Gus Tapley had the part Of
Col LIE NOir.
The play consists of five well-ar-
ranged acts with good climaxes. The
scenes are natural and at times the
interest is intense, as was the case IN
one scene last night during an inter-
view in lonely house remotely Sit
uated,. between Miss May Melvin as
Capitola and George Currie as Black
Donald, the outlaw. For a few mo-
ments the audience sat as though SPELL
bound and had pin dropped at the
time the sound it made would have
been audible to ALL The other parts
were well taken and the play proved
one of the most interesting in the rep
ertoire Of the company.
The specialties were very good last
night. especially the sketch by Walter
Curtis and Sam Barlow. 1t was a
laugh from start to finish and the last
part, with Barlow in the garb of a
ballet dancer from the Sunny South,
made the vaudeville hit of the even
ing.
The last feature Of the evening S
entertainment was the capture Of a
pig of good size. on the stage. by w.
H. Hall of Weston avenue. Mr.. Hall
held the lucky number and with very
little difficulty succeeded in catching
his pigShip which had been provided
by the management as a prize for tine
person holding the lucky number.

WhitehOuse, j.
The laws of 1905 conferred upon the
municipal courts of the State jurisdic-
ton of the wife's petition for decree
compelling her husband to contribute
to h5r support, and in the light of the
history of the legislation upon this sub
ject, the general provisions in the char
ters of these courts authorizing any
party to take an appeal from a judg-
ment or sentence of such court to the
supreme judicial court. must be held
inapplicable to these petitions for sup
port authorized by subsequent sta
tute.
The undOubted purpose Of this legis-
lation was to give to the inferior courts
the same power to hear and render fin
al decisions upon the simple questions
| of fact involved in the inquiry, that
| had previously been exercised by the
supreme court subject only to appro-
| pirate redress in the event of the abuse
| of such power. If the defendant could
secure the opportunity for delay afford
| ed by exercising right of appeal to
the supreme court and thus vacating
the order Of the court below, it is OBJ
vious that one of the vital purposes OF
the statute would necessarily be de-
feated and in many instances the raw
ages of hunger and disease would out.
run the benevolence of the statute
Such orders are ordinarily of a TEN.

ACCOUNTING FOR THE FLY.
Explanation That Probably Did Not
 Satisfy Traveller.

Before sailing for Egypt for the winter James Hagen Hyde said at farewell dinner in New York:
 "The only drawback to a tropical winter is the flies. In the hot sun of a January day in Egypt, Morocco CT Algeria the flies are an incredible pest. You see them in the corners of the eyes of native children and men lie asleep in sunny places with flies crawling over their lips.
 The natives don't mind the flies. In fact, they like them. At boorj or native inn in the Sahara a traveller said to the waiter, pointing indignant ly at his stew of barley and goats flesh:
 How comes this dead fly in my couscous?
 'Monsieur,' replied the waiter, I can not tell you. Perhaps the V had not eaten for many days and throwing himself ravenously on the cous-cous fed with too great heartiness, thereby contracting an inflammation of the stomach severe enough to cause death. The poor little thing can never have been strong When I brought the cous-cous it was dancing and hum- ming merrily on the surface Perhaps this idea has just presented itself to melt endeavored to swallow too large a piece of meat. The moFsel stuck in it's windpipe terrific coughing fit, inaudible to our gross ears, ensued. Alas, soon all was over

 On one occasion company had gathered at the popular grocery among whom were Elder Runnals and 'Siah Main, and bet of two quarts of rum was made as to who could pray the best, the elder or Main
