This ladv secured a portion of her claim at Olvphnnt but a balance of S10 was owing yesterday and she wenl be fore Aldirinan Kitzsimnums and swore to int'nruiatloii against lillbride. She explained that at Olyphant paytiu'iits on account were made to all the mem bers of the company cnci pt Miss (lar rikin. A wairant was also Issued Jor Mr. Cilbride yesterday by Alderman Wright at t'le Instance of i-lie pro prietor of the Carpenter house. Company (loos to Pieces, liusiness Mapager Campbell resigned his position Willi the company after the Olyphant eiigaifenietit, and when It was announced yesterday the Wllkes-liimv engagftnent hail been cancelled the company w nt to piceccs. All of the members of it who came here from Now York have tickets to return to that city. It was stated that Mr. Sherwood, a well known Philadelphia tluati-ic.il man, will at once proceed to ovgauir.e a company and put "Without a Name" en the stage a;;aln. It is a much better dramatic work than the "City Covern tiH'iit," and In the opinion of those who took part in Its production in tills eity Tuesday night, has elements of success. H is very probable that "City tlovern ment" will be shelved for good. Those In a position to know, said yes toray that Mr. Gllbrlde's efforts to stage his p! ay In this city had caused him a, net less of $1.(100. Hearing Last l.vening. The constable sent forth by Alderman Fiusiinm.ms located Mr. Clildbrldo and brou-,-'nt him before the chief justice of the i;ie,lith ward Ia;;t night. It then transpired that Mr. (lilbriue had also issued a warrant for the arrest of Stage Manager William Wheeler upon a charge of larceny, Uie offense? being that Mr. Wheeler har refusul to deliver up the manuscript of Mr. tiildbridr's piays. The staje manager, in a dra matic manner, declared that he was ready for tho fray and would be Inter ested to hear ho-.v Mr. (illbride would prove his charge. Mrs. Wheeler, who, by the way. wa: principal lady, Inter pes -d and reminded Mr. Gilbrido of the very ur.gonilemanly manner in which he had behaved. It ai.enred that the manuscript was In Mr. Wheeler's trunk at the deprt and that the only condi tion upon whit-ii he would return the manuscript was that Mr. CilhriaJe's ,-r.sh would materialise. Hefore thl3 matter could be nettled, however, the ouestlon of board cropped up. Mr. Gllbride contended that the Wheelers hail promised to pay half the boarding- bill, as Mrs. Wheeler wanted her husband to be away from the other actors, owing to his drinking propensi ties. Mrs. Wheeler admitted her hus band's fondness for the cup that lnebrl HoK, but denied strenuously that they hud agreed to "split the bill." Mrs. Whel, r, Mr. 'Illbride. John Campbell, ag.-nt to Cilbride, and Miss Oarrlgan then opened up a debate as to the boarding bill, when Attorney Corbett escorted his client, flllbrlife, and the rest of the company to a private room to endeavor to arrange a compro mise. Charges of AH kind. From Wyoming avenue could be heard the accusations of lying made by the various parties until passers-by wondered if a performance of "City Government" was being given for the edification of the alderman. Cries of "You're crazy" and other uncompli mentary terms were heard Incessantly. In about half an hour, as no seitle ment was arrived nt, the alderman began to hear the caies. Mr. Wheeler was examined as to the manuscript and nfter some skirmishing went. In company with Messrs. Campbell and Tom Oilbrlde, to bring back the docu ments from the depot. Mr. (Illbride paid him $1 and presented him and Mrs. Wheeler with tickets to New York. Miss Garrlgan, another lady of the company, then stepped up, and In a mellifluous manner asked Mr. Cilbride for satisfaction. Another wrangle be gan and a compromise was effected by payment of the lady's fare to New York. Miss V.essle Irnyson then nestled up toflllbrldennd pictured herself a strnnd ed maiden In an alderman's olllee.whlch brought the tears to Fltzslmmons' eyes and $4;0 from Gllbrlde's pockets. (Ill bride, however, as a consolator, an nounced to Hie company that he was ashamed of those who had presented his play, all of them not being up to his Ideas, except a Mr. Allan. An Actor Who Iddn't I nt. Mr. Keogh, of the St. Charles' hotel. In order to be In the swim, presented a claim for $10.50 and Mr. (Illbride main tained his reputation by giving up the cash.

Ilefore leaving Hie nlderman's olllce Mr. (Illbride had dlschurgeil all his claims and received his manuwrlpt. AKKKSIlil) FOR FF.RJURY. .Henry Goodman Held In H0() Hall to Ap pear nt Court.

Judkovlcs, of 45 South Washington avenue, qualifying as his bondsman. The warrant was Issued In conse quence of an affidavit made by Henry Herrlck, representing the firm of Mo Parlanc & Co., who alleged that Oood man "did unlawfully, wilfully, corrupt ly and falsely swear to certain matters and things In an affidavit of defense dated Dec. f, 18114, In the case of Mc Farlono, & Co., versus th eald Henry Ooodman." The defendant at the time swore that lOO'.i dozens of shirts sup idled ty McFarlane & Co., were not of first quality, but of second quality, and that they were worth $181.29 and not $604.24, as claimed by McFarlane & Co. Goodman also swore that Herrlck ad mitted that the goods were of an In ferior quality and that he would allow a discount of 2.1 per rent. Herrlck, In his ullldavit, makes oath Hint these statements are false nnd that Goodman swore to them, knowing them to be untrue. ISLE OF CUAiUl'AfJNF.. Hcocived with .Much l-'nvor at the Acad emy of Music. Thomas Q. Seubrooke, unlike Rich ard Munslleld, has no reason to com plain of his reception In this yclty. It was hearty and cordial, nnd at times bordered closely on the enthusiastic. "The Isle of Champagne," In which Mr. Seabrooke made Ill's nppearance ut the Academy of Music last evening, is labelled u conile opera on the house bill, but It scarcely urines to that dignity. It is light and ami frivolous In the ex treme, but frivolity and lightness Is of the delightful character theater goers admired so much In "Wang," and which won for that irs great popular ity. It Is an evidence, one might be warranted In saying, that people go to the theater to be amused rather than Instructed, when Manslleld plays to empty seats and Seabrooke causes the standing room sign to appear. Ai l, In matters theatrical, is very well In Us way, but it won't make people laugh and forget their cares in the way the merry monarch of the bile of Cham pagne can. and thai Is no doubt the reason why the highest forms of the atricals are not popular in the box of fices. Mr. Seabrooke, as King I'ommery Second, ruler of the Isle of Champagne, kept the audience in constant good humor last night, lie belongs to the natural school of comedians, anil then Is nothing forced about his efforts to amuse. The music of the "Isle of Champagne" Is catchy and tuneful, and it was well rendered lust evening, for Mr. Seabrooke has n number of good voices In his company. Miss Maud K. Williams rendered several solos wltli spirit nr.d feeling and was invaded hearty recalls. Miss Irene -Murphy assumed the lead ing female role, that of Pinna, the ladle of the Isle of Champagne, and did It In a very clever manner. She sang better than when last heard In this city with the liennctt and Moitlton Opera com pany, und displayed all the chic that has won prominence for. her In the realm of comic opera. Through an error the house bill announced that Miss Klvla Crox, otherwise Mrs. Thomas Seabrooke, was Plana, but Miss Murphy is so well known to Scran tonians that the mistake did not de ceive many. Mi.-s Murphy nnd Miss Crox alternate nightly In the role. Among the members of the company who won much favor with the audience last night by their clever work were Walter Allen. A. S. Kingsley, Charles M. McDonald, Daniel I,. Raker, W. Wallace Black and Kva Davenport. DICKISON IS CAU(jHT. The l'iku County Digamist l.anJcJ in t lie County Jail.

So Opponent for Select Council from the Sixteenth Ward. It Is not probable that Adam Schroe der, the regularly nominated Republi can candidate for select council from the Sixteenth ward, will have a Dem ocratic opponent. No Democratic nomi nation papers have been filed In the court house five days preceding the election, which will be held Tuesday. Among politicians It Is not considered likely that Mr. Schroeder will have any opposition. It has been currently re. ported that the Democratic leaders In the ward bad tried to lilt upon some available German, but without success, and It Is not expected that any eleventh hour candidate will be run on stickers.

Judge Gunster was on the bench In the main court room, and the proceed ings were begun before him. A rule was granted to show cause why a writ of mandamus as prayed for should not be issued and wan made return able nnd will be an;ued on Monday morning at 1) o'clock In open court. The allidavit made by Manager Itc-11 and upon which tlu mandamus 1s petitioned for states that county commissioners Samuel W. Roberts, Giles Roberts and John Demuth ordered the publication of the mercanlilo appraisers' list jf names and ( laKsilicatlon of persons subject to license In three papers, viz: The Scran ton Republican, Scranton Times and the Woehcnblatt, a German paper, none of which represent the minority party of the two principal parties of the county. County Solicitor ex-Judge H. A. Knnpp accepted the service of the rule and will appear for the county commis sioners at the hearing on Monday morning. Chief Clerk Charles F. Wag ner said that the proprietors of the Times published the appraisement list of their own volition, and they had carried the matter to court to receive payment therefore. If court decides that the county must foot the bill, then, of course, It will have to be done. Fred Wagner, publisher of the Scran ton Woehcnblatt, has certified to the county commissioners that his paper is u Democratic Journal. Clerk Wagner states that the Woeh cnblatt has given satisfactory evidence of its political principles; for it has been hostile to the Republican party for year.'. l ake Ariel l-Actirsion Announcement.
