The organization last evening gave a brilliant social function in a hall on 12th street. Mirth and merri- ment reigned supreme until shortly before midnight, when the policeman on the beat called for the license authorizing the ball. It was not forthcoming, and President Tuell was thereupon placed under arrest, charged with giving an unlicensed enter- tainment. In the Police Court today the defense offered was that the hall was given for the benefit of Mary Humphrey, and there- fore was under the head of charity, and a license was unnecessary. “If individuals were recognized as ob- jects of this sort," commented Judge Kim- ball, “not a license would be procured. Every entertainment in the city would be, ostensibly, for charity. ‘Tuell agreed to pay the license fee, and the case was nolle prossed. -— It matters IfNle what it is that you want —whether a situation or a servant—a “want” ad. in The Star will reach the person who can fill your need.

Lewis, “Farmer” the original “Sl Plunkard,” who for the past nine seasons has been stirring up the risi- bilities of the public by his portrayal of the comicalities of our country counsins, will be the stellar attraction at the Bijou Family Theater next week. But although “Whistling Si” fs easily the star of the organization he does not attempt to give the whole show himself. On the other hand he is surrounded by a company which includes several people of stellar possibilities. One of these, Sadie Hasson, will be remembered for her starring tours in “A Kentucky Girl” and “Nobody's Claim,” while Wm. J. Milliken, the Ger- man dialect comedian; Minnie Bernard, the character vocalist; Frank Farrell, the dancer; Otey Shattuck, Grace Whitney, W. H. Snyder, Frank Camp, H. A. Tuttle and D. Collins are all clever people. The com- pany carries its own musical contingent, and the parade of the Country Band will be one of the features of the engagement. SS Caveat Filed. A caveat to the will of the late Anna Maria Buchley has been filed by her grand nephew, Wm. 8. Buckley, through his next fried, Thos. W. Stewart. The will, dated March 7, 1895, and making Hattie J. Buck- ley, a niece, the beneficiary, is charged to have been procured through the alleged undue influence of the testatrix’s sald nice. It is also claimd that the testatrix was mentally incapable at the time the will ‘was made, and that it was procured through compulsion and fraud.
