The comedy In which Mr. Bothern
and company were seen at the Acad
emy of Music last night has simplicity
for Its chief characteristic. Captain
Lettarblalr Is in love with Fanny. Had
den, the ward of Mr. Seton, a lawyer.
Miss Hadden Is rich, the captain Is
poor, and she desires to relieve his
necessities In such a way that he will
not know It. She tells her plan to her
friend, Polly Messlter, and their con
versation Is Overheard by Francis
Merlvule, a neighboring squire, also
an aspirant for Fanny's hand. The aid
intended for the young soldier Is to
come through a letter which the 'squire
intercepts and keeps. He then lets
Fanny believe that Lettarblalr got the
money and that he Is a spendthrift,
who loves her only for her wealth. The
plan Beems to work well, and Fanny
and Polly are convinced that Jhe young
Irish olllcer Is a pretty hard case. The
debt for which Lettarblalr Is pushed
to the wall Is really due to Fanny, al
though neither are aware of It. Lettar
blalr has to sacrifice everything to pay
this debt his commission In the army,
his fuvorlte mare, Kitty Tyrell, who
has saved his life In battle. War
breaks out, and Lettarblalr goes as a
private In his old regiment. He re
turns in safety, unmasks the villain,
and wins his Bweetheart.
Mr. Sothern gave a fine Interpretation
of the role of Captain Lettarblalr,
which was marred only by his struggles
with the delightful Irish brogue that
the Captain Is supposed to possess. Mr.
Sothern was unable to catch and hold
that brogue throughout the various
scenes despite his most painstaking
efforts In that direction. ' He had all
the characteristics of the brave young
soldier, however, could be- heroic and
dashing or tender and pathetic as suit
ed the spirit of the moment. Ills lines
were pronounced with feeling and nat
uralness, yet Sothern was seen In every
action and retlected In every speech.
His personality pervaded, but did not
dominate the churacter. '
Mr. Sothern's support was excellent.
Grace Kimball madea sweet and grace
ful Fanny and won all hearts. Bertha
Bartlett, too, won many good opinions,
and Rowland Buckstone was a favorite
from the moment he made his appear
ance as the happy-go-lucky Jorklns,
Lettarblalr's servant. He was natural
ness Itself, and was more successful In
correctly assuming the appropriate
brogue than was his principal.
A large and fashionable audience
witnessed the performance, which ac
corded hearty applause to the actors.
At the end of the second act the cur
tain had to be rung up several times.
WORKING FOR BOSCHIXO.
His Counsel Endeavoring to Get a New
Trial for Mm Depositions Taken Yes
terday. Attorney T. F. Wells, acting as com
missioner by direction of the court,
took depositions In the office of Ward
& Horn yesterday on the rule for a new
trial In the case of Joseph Boschlno,
who was convicted of murder In the
first dexree for slaying Frank Confortl,
at Dun more. A new trial was asked
for the reasons among others that the
Jurors separated during the trial of the
case, read local papers containing re
ports of the trial and conversed with
out permission with persons other than
officers of the court. Ex-Judge Ward
appeared for the rule and District At
torney John R. Jones for the common
wealth.
William J. Scott was the first witness
sworn. He said that he took dinner
frequently at Mitchell's dining room on
Linden street during the Boschlno trial
and saw the Jurors there In charge of
Tipstaffs Welsh and Sutto. He saw the
Jury come In to dinner one day, and
there were only eleven of them with
Mr. Sutto, In about five minutes Mr,
Welsh came In with the other Juror.
When the eleven Jurors came In with
Mr. Sutto there was a lady waiting In
the dining room and one of the jurors.
C. S. Seamans, shook hands with her
and kissed her. They then conversed
together for a time and the lady hand
ed Mr. Seamans several letters which
he read. He also saw this lady and
Mr. Seamans meet ami have another
conversation on a subsequent occasion.
Tipstaff Welsh Interrupted them on
one occasion, but Mr. Seamans spoke to
the tipstaff and he went to the table
and sat down.
Miss Nettle Vernoy, a waitress In
Mitchell's dining room, testified that
she saw Mr. Seamans and the lady con
versing together on at least two occa
sions. This lady In question was Mr.
Seaman's wife.
William J. Butss went to the Jury
room to shave the Jurors. He had a
copy, of the Free; Press In his pocket,
which he gave to one of the Jurors who
kept the paper.
Barber William O'Brlent was also
sworn, but saw. no paper and did not
hear the Jurors discuss the case while
he was In the Jury room shaving them.
Further depositions will be taken next
week.

appointed temporary chairman, after
which the certificates of the court ap
pointing W. S. Langstaff and MrB.
Frances Swan. were. read and ordered

temporary shelter at the Hillside Home
while the attorney Inquired as to Ills
place of residence.
The ordinary business was suspended

proposal to lay out the grounds at the
Hillside Home. Mr. Clark recommend
ed that a Well known landscape archi
tect from Rochester, N. Y., be engaged
to prepare a plan for the laying out of
all the land around the home buildings.
The gentleman he recommended had
great experience and would be enabled
to prepare plans whereby the board
cold systematically plant trees and
shrubs, lay beds, walks, etc., from time
to time and maintain a harmony In
color of foliage, height of trees and In
other respects.
Two Directors Objected.
Director Tropp objected to spending
any further money at present, as they
would be probably overdrawn to the
extent of $10,000 or $12,000. Director
Williams also protested, but after some
discussion It was decided to refer the
matter to the home committee with
power to act.
Miss Jordan, of Green Ridge, npoke
with regard to the case of Mrs. Foley,
of Washington avenue, who was seri
ously 111 and lacked proper attention.
The Laukawanna hospital was report
ed to 0 overcrowded, but Director
Murphy was requested to make special
efforts to secure her admission, as the
case was deemed too serious to take to
the Hillside Home.
Mrs. Noonan, whose husband was
suffocated In the Sandy Batik's sewer,
some monthes ago, appeared before the
board, and Director Gibbons was re
quested to give relief as might be nec
essary. Superintendent Beemer said that
there were one hundred and seventy
one Inmates at the home, ten having
been discharged during the month, and
six having died. The number of Insane
was 131. Dr. Evans hud treated 143
patients during the same period.

duplicate was $67,271.50 'and the attor
ney had entered satisfaction upon the
records of the court.
Secretary Lynett reported that a bill
had been Introduced by Representative
Gould, of Erie, entitled "An Act to pro
vide for the 'support of the Indigent
Insane, in certain poor districts, coun
ties and cties of this commonwealth,"
and that the measure was more sat
isfactory in meeting the desires of the
board than the bill previously Intro
duced, . The bill was down for third
reading on Tuesday. The secretary
was directed to write the local repre
sentatives and senator to vote for the
bill.
PITCHER BROWN SECURED.
Has Been Signed by Manager Barnle for
. : Seranton.
Manager Barnle yesterday signed
Brown, a well-known left-handed
pitcher, for the Scranton club. He was
with Baltimore last year and did ex
cellent work.
Ted Sullivan secured him for this
year's Dallas, Texas, club, but when
he transferred his club to Huston he
could not force the players to go to that
city with him, and thus It was that
Scranton secured the Bouth paw.
Third Baseman Whitehead, Short
