Despite the enervating effect of the hfat, which has sort of knocked news happenings Into fi cocked hat. Alder man Atkinson had three cases before him, of somewhat more than ordinary interest First In magnitude was the assault and battery charge brought by Fred Deloskey, of Forty-second street. De loFkey has been In the public prints before, but this time he appeared in a new role, that of prosecutor. Delos key was In a fight yesterday In front of the new Italian Catholic church on Fallbrook street. According to his Mory, it was a warm fight. There were things doing there that were ns caloric as the weather: and Dclos key's appearance bore out his story. He had a gash on the hack of his head, from which the blood had flown quite freely, crimsoning his neck and his coat collar. How It all happened was this wise, said Deloskey. He had been cm ployed for some days at painting the church. With him were two Italian painters from Philadelphia. It seems that Deloskey Is a union painter, while his co-laborers are on the outside of the ranks. Deloskey reminded them ot this, or something of that sort; but anyhow, bad feeling arose between himself and the strangers, and words that rivalled the weather passed from one side to the other. The feeling grew and the words Increased in warmth, until the climax was reached yesterday afternoon and blows were struck. Deloskey avers that one of his foes struck him on the head with a stone, on the same spot from whence the blood flowed. The other had a ready knife and its appearance pro vented him from taking care of him self. It might bo said that Deloskey Is a most powerful man, as the police can testify, and there must have "been some good reason for him not defend ing himself. The knife wielded or brandished by the other fellow was the "reason" In this Instance, Deloskey said, and he was forced to flee before his assailants. Constable Jloran was given warrants for the alleged assailants of Deloskey, which he served on them last night. FROM OVER GREENFIELD "WAY. The second case heard by Alderman Atkinson was from over Greenfield way. It was a case of larceny and receiv ing, in which Farmer Luther E. Leo was prosecutor and another farmer, Frank Pierce, and Gertrude Pierce were defendants. Lee had the Pierces for his house keepers, and after their removal from his home in April last, he missed some Of his furniture. He suspected the Pierces, but he wasn't sure of his ground until this week, when he was given good reason to believe that the rfilsslng goods could be located In the Pierces' possession If the law's powers were invoked. Accordingly he made information against his former ten ants, and a search of the latter's place yesterday revealed the presence of the good?. jAt the. hearing. Pierce admitted the possession. of the" goods and, though he did not explain their prtsenco at his home, he'. Insisted that it was his in tention to so inform Lee, .'The alderman held Pierce in $200 ball, oh the charge of larceny, but the other defendant, Gertrude Pierce, who was charged with receiving the goods, he discharged. There was no evidence to connect her with the transaction. The last case was a sequel to the fortune-telling case from the Last Chance settlement, the one in which Mary, the Dane, the reader of cards, .was an amusing figure. Yesterday's case was one of perjury, in which Mrs. Agnes Stone was the prosecutrix. Mrs. Stone is the wife of the man who lost the gold watch, which, from the card-reading of Mary the Dane, was Indicated was stolen by Blojso Andros. Andros was arrested, but was discharged. Mrs. Stone, to re venge herself, had Joseph Megal, a friend and advisor of Andros, arrested for selling Intoxcants without a license. She swore at the time that Megal used to buy lager by the keg and then sell it to the residents of the settlement in large quantities, giving them Immense ly greater measure than If they pur chased it at a licensed taloon, Immedl aitely after his arrest by Mrs. atone, Megal had her nrrested on the charge it perjury, declaring that she swore falsely when she accused him of selling without a license. Andros was Megal's witness. Now, Mrs. Stone proceeds to have both Megal arid Andros arrested, an the same charge, deducing that they swore falsely against her when they swore that 6he swore falsely sgalnst them In the other case, which :s now before the court, .,It was a case for a Jury to find who aa the storyteller, the alderman be leved, so he held Andros and Megal to nvnlt the grand Jury's action.

ACTING NEVER BETTEE. Our Players Are Abies Than Those of Booth's Heyday. Franklin I'ylei, in Kieijhody' Magazine. After making due allowance for the direction of memory and the enchant ment of distance, tho fact remains clear that the world has no Booth on the stago at this beginning of a century that may end without pro ducing one. But that proves nothing against my contention that our play ers, as a body are abler than those of Booth's heyday that they hava risen by merit to higher standards that acting Is In a good nnd steadily Improving condition. Audiences demand far moro than they used to, and get it, too, Tho noisy declamation of bun combe will no longer excite a gallery, except to ridicule, and the parquet spurns it with silence that Is still moro damning. Characters In dramatic, fic tion must talk and act as persons In real life might under tho samo cir cumstances, and the author must write to that purpose, leaving it to the actors to complete the illusion of naturalness, I say "Illusion," because tho effect of utioxaggeration, of being absolutely true to life, is not created on tho stage by literal truthfulness, The acme of skill In the acting of the present day lies In such speech and pantnmiuo as will carry tho semblance of truth across tho footlights by expert fals ities, Tho fond wooer must make you believe that ho breathes his forbidden lovo to his timid sweetheart so softly and covertly that her alert mother, In tho same room Is unaware of what )s going on, yet he hns to mako you hear and see It five times as far away, The vllllan whispers his plot Into tho private ear of a confederate, yet the furthermost boy in tho gallery must get every word of It, The art of act ing, as taught and practised, is direct ed to making an impression of verity by means that necessarily aro often deceptive. In this direction the great advance has been made. All tho dramatic schools, and most of the private teach ers, "are working in that spirit. They employ careful methods where a con Joseph Rldgeway.

I can eat. anything I ever could I took live bottles of Peruna, and feel better now than I have for five yeais.

Prltchard, Wolf Lake, Ind., writes: "I nin pleased to say that I have been cured of catarrh of the stomach by Pe runa. I could hardly cat anything that agreed with mo. Before I would get half through my meal my .stomach would fill with gas causing me much distress and unpleasant feelings for an hour or two after each meal. But, thanks to your Peruna, I am now com pletely cured, nnd can eat anything I want io without any of the distressing symptoms. I can now enjoy my meals as I used to do, and It is due to Dr. Hartman and his wonderful medicine, Peruna. "It has been one year since I was cured, and I am all O. K. yet. so I know" I im cured." J.
