It gives pleasure to announce thnt
the general desire to hear as many
of Sousu's own popular marches us
possible at his ci Hirer', tonight ut the
Frothlnghaui will be gratified. Sousu's
success and pooiilurity . ure doubtless
us much due to bis musical composi
tions us to bis ability as u leader und
musician. He Is ns widely known In
this country through his Irresistible
mui'ches as for his magnetism us a
leader. Mr. Sousu claims thut every
occupant of a seat in his organization
Is a musician of uncommon skill, xnd
thoroughly worthy of the company he
is In. All are models of devotion to
nnd udmlrntlon for their leader.

Cumllle D'Arvllle nnd her opera
company will be seen ut the Frothiug
hum Suturduy night in "Madeleine, or
the Magic Kiss." This artist has thor
oughly ingratiated herself into the
hearts of the music-loving public, and
Is reaping both fortune and popularity.
.There Is no more Interesting llgure in
theatricals today thnn this fair singer.
A few years ugo Lillian Hussell was the
Idol of the comic opera stage, and later
Pauline Hall made a bid for public
favor. There wus some rlvnlry be
tween Uii'in but both went on enter
taining the tiiihltc with operas of the
light order and held the "right of way"
until Cumllle D'Arvllle made her bow
to un American audience. She ninde
an Instantaneous success; was received
with open arms by plny-goers, and
before she wns a fortnight in this
country had become the central at
traction In the Held of comic opera.

Lottie Moore, last season a strong
curd with Hoyt's "A Black Sheep." will
be the "Hasty Writer, the Typewriter,"
with Ward & Yokes' company, who ap
pear at the Frothlnghaui next Monday
night, pri senting their famous play, "A
Hun on the Bank."
The Jury of the t'niteil States dis
trict court which heard the case against
Walter Pierce tried on Wednesday for
passing counterfeit money "yesterday
at noon broujrht In a verdict of not
guilty. Judge Uuttlngton in discharg
ing Pleace. told him thut his conduct
hud been very suspicions und udvised
him, If he hud ever hud anything to do
with counterfeit money in the past, to
shun It In the future. The jury wns
out un hour and u half before agreeing
upon the verdict.
The first case culled in court yester
day morning was thut ugalnst Kllus
Williums and William Asliton, of
Bradford county, charged with selling
oleomargarine without paying the spec
iul tax. They pleaded guilty and were
remanded for sentence.
The next case called was that against
J. C. Culii, of Sunbury, charged with
using the malls for fraudulent pur
poses. It was charged thut Culp, who
wus In business in Sunbury. sent
through the mull orders for goods In
large quantities from different dealers,
which goods he quickly sold at prices
less than their cost and fulled to make
payment for the same. The action wus
brought under a I'nlted States stutute
of 1ST2.
WANTED INDICTMENT Qt'ASHKD.
Culp wus defended by James Scarlett
and N. J. Shlpmaii, of Dunville, und
J. 11. Dewitt, of Sunbury. .Mr. Culp
moved thut the Indictment be qiiushed
us the uct under which it wus drawn
was repealed by nn act of 1ss. Judge
bufflugton refused to quash the Indict
ment und a verdict of guilty wus ren
dered by the Jury. Sentence wus sus
pended und the defendants were direct
ed to renew their bull uml appear at
the session of the court to be held In
Pittsburg where urguiiieiit will be
heurd on the question as to whether the
act of IMS repeals the act of 1872. This
Is the first time this question hus been
raised und if it shall be decided affirm
atively its effect will be to release a
number of persons from Jail who have
been convicted and Imprisoned under
the statute of ISSft.
Alury J. Crowell, of Tioga county. Is
now on trlul on il chure of tiertory.
The case was cunea yesteruay aiter
noon. She la charred with falsely
swearing that she wus married to Or
rin B. Tuft, deceased, a veteran of the
War of the Rebellion, and thus at
tempting to secure liension for Tuft's
minor children, whose guurdluif she Is.
It was admitted by the government
that the defendant lived with Tuft und
Is the mother of his children. It wns
claimed, however, that she wns not le
gally wedded to him and could not be
for the reason that during' the time of
their cohabitation Tart hud a legal
wife, then living In the stute of New
York and from whom lie had never
been divorced.
Mil. CAM KHON'S MOTION.
Mrs. Crowell wus defended by ex
Assistuut I'nlted Stutes District Attor
ney Cameron, of Tioga county. At the
beginning of the case Mr. Cunieron
moved thut the indictment be qiiushed
because It stuted thut the perjury wus
committed on a day other than thut on
which the defendant affixed her signa
ture to the affidavit, the falsity of
which constitutes the perjury alleged
In the indictment. District Attorney
Hall admitted the error which he said
hud been caused by the carelessness of
his stenographer. He asked that the
case be continued until the next term
of court when a correct indictment
would be presented. Mr. Cameron
withdrew his motion and the trial pro
ceeded. Its course throughout the en
tire afternoon was marked by argu
ment on the part of Mr. Cameron
ugalnst the admission of evidence und
the construction of different statutes
bearing on the case. Just before ad
journment Judge Huffiligton, after hear
ing brief testimony on behalf of the de
fendant, directed the Jury to find a Ver
dict of not guilty.
District Attorney Hall said lust night
that he expected to be able to clear the
list of all cases by noun today when
the session will probably adjourn.

THE THEATERS LAST XIUHT.
. i i I
A well-pleased audience saw "In oi l
Kentucky" at the Frothinghum last nlgut.
The story of the play abounds In stirring
ami sensational scenes, but is- romantio
ami Idyllic by turns and throughout hus
the flavor of genuineness ami freshness.
The characters tre drawn with much skill
and were very cleverly interpreted by the
company that was seen last night at the
Frothingham. The incidents and strong
climaxes are leil up to gradually and logic
ally and ure v part of the story, list
night the race track scene and the danc
ing of the pickaninnies were received
with great applause by .the audience. Tile
company was evenly balanced and made
up of very competent players.
"Moths" Is one of the strong cards of
the Huntington Stock company and last
night for (he second time this week it
was .produced ut nhe Academy of Music
and was receive! with every evidence of
favor by the uudience. Tonight "Our Ken
imetit" will be given. It is to lie military
night and many member of the National
iuurd are expected to attend In full uni
form. ,
John A. llimnielleiis' clever comapny
presented "The cioldeu (Hani Mine" -fore
the pull-ons of Davis' theater yes
terday. The play Is by McKee Kankiii.
There are many exciting situations ami
the plot grows in interest toward the lat
ter ucts. As Jack .Mason, the lover und
gambler, Chester 1 Vonde, was remarka
bly good. As an actor Mr. D Von.le
Is certainly deserving of a front seat in
the romantic school. Tommy Sherer, who
formerly did black face work, made much
fun yesterday, and Miss 'Men trice Karle
and jiaby Johnson came In fiaT a share of
the applause. Specialties which are In
troduced complete ail unusually pleasing
performance, liowson's orchestra is an
other feature of the show, it will run for
the rest of the week.
