Judge Kohler decided at Akron 0.,
that the flirting which Miss Gertrude
Jennings may have done during the
trial of her damage case against the
Akron and Cuyahoga Fall- Rapid Tran
sit Company with one of the jurors was
not enough to help her case materially,
and refused a new trial asked by the de
fendant. He did believe, however, that
the damages were excessive, and re
duced them from £4.500 to * ',500.
The decision of the Supreme Conri a
few days ago upon a test case from Lan
caster County means thousands of dol
lars increase in the cost to counties of
the State, and at the same time greater
revenues for the constabulary. C .n-sta
ble Price, of Lancaster County, claimed
50 cents infees for each witness subp<ena
ed and 10 cents for every mile he travel
ed. The Commissioners refused to pay
the bill, and in a suit to recover. Jndge
Livingston, of the lower court, decided
that the constable was entitled to but
50 cents, no matter bow many names
were in the subpoena, and in mileage
wan entitled to each and every mile lie -
easarily traveled in the service of the
writ. The Commissioners appealed t>
the Superior Court, which reversed the
lower court as to the subpoena, gaye
the constable 50 cents for each and ev
ery witness on bis subpoena, and held
that the constable was only entitled to
10 cents per mile traveled one way way.
The Commissioners next appealed to the
Supreme Court, which has just affirmed
the decision of the Superior Court
Those familiar with the Quarter Ses
sions cases know that there are many
witnessess, in each trial, and that the
costs for criminal cases will now be
largely augmented. Prior to the change
in the law making 50 cents the legal fee
for subpoenaing witnesses the fee was
15 cents, which was considered fair
compensation. Ex.

origion.Uly done al the Lyceum Thea

It was pronounced by the critics the
■ very best thin« that < ver was written
by Filmland's very tiest playwright.
The humor is exquisite in its subtlety
and effectiveness. The love episodes
are natural and go straight to the heart

as remarkable for their athletic prowess
as for their beauty Miss Lizzie Hud

From the comedy of Henry Ouy (Jar
leton to the comedy drama of Archi
bald ( 'layering Ounter, is a wide sweep
and one that fully teats the versatility
of the Avenue Stock Company. "Mr
liarncs of New York" is a play from
the novel, the author of the bo.ik hav
ing made the dramatization that when
first presented in New York caused no
end of sensation and was the means of
britiKi UK into histrionic prominence
several of the leading actors of the day.
Special interest will be attached to this
production from the fact that it will
introduce the new leading lady of the
Avenue, Miss Ueryl Hope. It should
be born in mind that the prices of the
Avenue are lower floor, reserved, Jtfic,
with a few choice seats at 50c, and the
entire balcony, reserved, 'itir. Hut two
matinees are xiven weekly, one on
Wednesday and one Saturday. The
matinees have grown to be quite popn
lar for ladies and children.
