Jinlk'e Savidfie said in his rhatRe ho thought they could auree without leuv InK the box; while they were strivlnR to do this one of them arose and iiuiuired if both of them rould be found ftullty. There was good deal of seo-buwhiK and tlunlly they divided the costs. The Judife utter tukinK the verdict told them they mitfht be honest about it but they wore very much mistaken In ndmlnis lerliiK justice in that way. Juries are sworn to try ilie cases according to the lnw and the nvldeiiee and iu the ease where the evidence Is strong enough to warrant a conviction such a verdict oiiiiht to be rendered; any other verdict brings the law and the courts of Jus tice into disrepute.

There Is not a dull moment. It is said, in the en tire presentation. I! !l II "The Fencing Muster," De Koven and Smith's most artistic and pleasing American opera comiuue, which will be presented at the Academy Saturday evening Is nearlug its one thousandth performance, apuprently without reduc ing its popularity. The production generaly is one in w hich all the elements that end to assure an operative success are involved, und so urtlstlcHlly blended us to form one charming harmonious whole.

In the new play Mr. Seabrooke is said to bo even more amusing than in any other of his former roles, which is saying much. II II II in the churacter of James Shilling law iu "The Cotton King," Sutton Vune has presented one of the most forceful Impersonations, when properly acted, ever seen on the Kngllsh speaking stage.

He is severely put to the test, however, in several instances, and Is always u fusclnatlng study. "The Cotton King" will be the attrac tion at the Academy next Tuesday night.

THE KEI'IBLICAX I'KIMAUIES Indications Are That a Large Vote Will He lHdlcd Tomorrow Afternoon-lleor-. ganization of the IHior Hoard W ill Take Place This Afternoon. Acting Chairman 1. W. Vaughan, of the Democratic city committee, yes terduy issued a call for a meeting of the Democratic city committee iu the St. Charles hotel at 7.30 p. m., next Wed nesday evening. Mr. Vaughan said last evening thut no formal notice had been served on him to call the commit tee together but that it seemed to be the general sentiment among the members of the party that the time had come to decide when the city convention should be held and in deference to that sentiment lie hud issued the call. The matter of selecting dutes for the pri maries and convention was entirely for the committee to puss upon and he was not prepared to suy what their choice would be. The general Impression is thut the convention will be held at an early day. Cp to the present time no pronounced Democratic candidates huve appeared in the tleld. Several well known men of that political faith are allowing without great protest the use of their names In connection with the olHces of mayor, controller und treus urer, but before deciding whether or not they will declare themselves as candidates they are anxious to know what Tuesday's Republican convention will do. When the Republican city ticket is decided upon the Democratic slate makers will go to work. Last night some or the most prominent of the Democratic local leaders declared that no attempt at arranging a slate had been made as yet. Tomorrow afternoon between the hours of 4 and 7 p. m. the Republican primaries to e. delegates to the citv convention will be held. A lively inter est In the selection of delegates is shown by voters In all parts of the city and the Indications are that a large vote will be polled. Th. convention will be called to order at 2.30 Tuesday afternoon next In Music Hull and the delegates will ihen proceed to nominate one person for the office of mayor, one for the office of con troller, one f r the office of treasurer, and three persons for city assessors. This afternoon at 2 o'clock the Poor Board of the Seranton District will meet for the purpose of reorganizing for the year 1896. The meeting will also be notable from the fact that Alderman Frederick Fuller will succeed the late Charles Tropp as a memberof the hoard. Mr. Fuller was appointed by Judge Archbald on Monday and the same day tiled his oath of office and became a full fledged member of the board. This af ternoon, however, will be his first ap pearance at a meeting. The officers to be elected by the board are a president, secretary, attorney, treasurer, tax col lector, superintendent of the farm and matron, resident physician und five out door physicians. A very lively wancaucus will be held by the Democrats of the Sixth ward to morrow afternoon. The principal tight will be for the nomination for school controller and M. J. O'Toole. city editor of the Times, and Hotellteetier John Casey are engaged in a most vigorous buttle for thut honor. SEQUEL TO A MURDER. The Herwyn Tragedy Leads to Second Arrest.
