That Breach OF Promise Case.

The Mock Court Trial to be given
under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid
Society Of Centenary M. z. Church, in
Odd Fellows Hall, ON Monday evening,
February %, promises to be an event
of unusual interest. Judging from
newspaper reports of similar enter
tainments conducted by the present
management it would seem to be one
Of the most amusing things now Offer
ed for public patronage.
It will be, in the first place, an eX-
act production of a court scene in
methods and procedure and on this
account will be extremely interesting
to ladies and others who have never
attended real trial.
Best of all will be the refined fun
of the whole affair. With Joseph ID.
Brooks, Esq, presiding over the court,
Miss Nettie Whitmore appearing as
the broken-hearted plaintiff, Mr.. Geo.
Armacost as the defendant, Col. New
ton prosecuting the case and Charles
o. Clemson, Esq, defending the ac-
cused, to say nothing Of the brilliant
array of court officers, witnesses and
jurors, it is pretty certain we shall
have all the comedy and realty Of a
COuII SCOAC dAu SAOu5A WAO1C0OAlC
fun to last whole year.
Indeed 1t IS predicted by those in
position to know, that from the open
ing of the court until the close of the
case, the audience will be kept keyed
up to the point Of conclusions by the
unique proceedings.
Wit, pathos, eloquence, laughable
local hits and vagaries will be drawn
upon without stint TO keep up the
current merriment.
As an entertainment of innocent
fun, conducted with mock dignity and
without the shade OF offense to re-
fined tastes, the Mock Court Trial will
be as mentioned above, an event Of
unusual interest.
The following are the rest of the
participants (: Clerk, George Miller;
Court officer, Walter Davis; Crier,
