A Man Who Didn't Want to be Tried by Court Martial. Yesterday morning Lucy A McArdle the elder sister of Delin MeArdle, appeared before Justice Anderson and filed a com- piaint against James Batten for ury. Batten, it may be remembered, eloped with her fourteen-year-old sister about ks ago. omplaint alleges thatin procuring the marriago heense from County Judge McCulloch, Batten swore that he was twenty-one years of age, when in roality he was only twenty, and that [ eighteen aiid over, fvhen s day of being fourteen yeyrs old: 'L'his, it would appeur, makes it cf p,\l‘ casoe Of per- jury against the young bridegfoom. atten is now trme, bayiug been re- leased on bail furnished by a” friend of his father. A ladierous thing happened when on the oocasion of his " furnishing bond, he was bruufiht before Judge An- derson. That offlelal had just returned from the Knight ‘Templar conelave at St. Lows, and was dressed in his official uniform. Batten eyed him a moment and then asked Detective Neligh, who had taken him from the jail, “Where's the justice of the peace?’ “‘What justice?” returned the detec- tive. “The man who is going to hear my ocase,” replied Ratten, “You're not going to be heard by a jus- tice of the peace,” answered Mr. Neligh, *“That man’s a soldier and you're to be wried by court-martial.” *Idon’t want to be tried that way,” said Batten, beginning to grow weak in the knees. “1'll have to soe my lawyer about that.” The true situation was explained to him tinally and he appeared to feel much relieved. The preliminary examination of the easo was set for next Saturday. THE STADT OLOSED. The Occasion Signalized by a Pleas- ant Sociuble, Wennesday night the well Stadt theatre, which for teen years has been the ren- dezyous of the Germans of this city when seoking Sunday evening the- atricals and dancing, was elosed under peculinrly pleasant eircumstances. The night was stormy, but the erowd within were forgetful of the elements in the happy time which they were spendi The evening ovened with a ce, which was kept up until about 4 o'clock, when the company disversed. In the carly E:rt of the evening the floor was oceupied y young folks, every one of whom seemod to feel like finding all the amuse- ment they possibly could, knowing that it would be the last time they would have an opportunity to dance within the walls of the time-honored building. Later, after the performance of the Ger- man company at Boyd's, some of the oldor citizens with their wives and daugh- ters made their appearance, and for n time they romuined together in pleasant convoersation unon various topies and es- peeinlly in recalling memories of the early duys of the house. Among them were some who had attended the place when they were young folks, and several of these told the BEE man it was ther they did their first courting, and the wives they got in that pustitn wory with them last night to see the old place die. After the young foiks bad had all of " the dance wmu ht, the older ones took the , and some of them danced after an abandonment of that diversion for many ears. Such & combination as Louis rocdor.
