During the coming week Trenton
will be filled with holiday shoppers
from the rural districts, with the result
that the Trent Theatre will be crowded
with suburban patrons at the matinee
performances In order to provide for
their amusement the Trent has provid-
ed for the coming week bill of ex-
ceptional merit, the principal feature
of which Is a dramatic sketch, called
"The Police Inspector" Owing to
limited space it is not possible to go
into detail and tell the unusual story
which this playlet relates. The act is
hardly more than year old and since
its first presentation it has not had an
open week. After finishing a series OF
engagements on the Keith Circuit the
sketch goes West and plays the great
Orpheum Circuit, which includes all
the theatres west Of Chicago, and as
soon as this tour is completed 1t re-
turns to Chicago again and plays right
over the same territory.

ASHEFILLE, n. c., July 21.--In
Circuit Court Of the United States for
the Western District Of North Caro-
lima, the case of Gilbert vs. Hopkins
was taken up Thursday morning This
case involves the ownership to a half
interest in about $4,000 acres of Laird
In Graham county. 1t was heard last
yeAr. but the result was mistrial 1t
will probably consume as much as
three weeks.
The history of the case seems TO
be that in 1850 Gilbert and Peet Sc
cured grants to the land and made a
bond for sic, ooo for the purchase. The
war came on and Gilbert, being a
Northern man. decided his interest to
Peet for safety. After the death of
both Gilbert and Peet the heirs of
Peet undertook to convey the inter-
est back to the heirs of Gilbert. but
In the meantime an administrator had
been appointed for Peet, and in or
der to settle the debts of the estate
he sold the land by order OF court,
and 1t finally came into the posses
sion of the defendant, Hopkins. The
defendants contend that the land was
sold by the administrator to pay the
.purchase Price. that tailbert never
paid anything on the land. and that
the recovery is barred by the statute
of limitations
