Sy AMUSEMEN rs Ex- An Evening with Sheridan. Miss Marie Wainwright began her fare- well engagement in Omaha last evening at the Boyd, presenting “The School for Scan- dal.” From the anunouncements, theater- goers were induced to expect a very notable “production” of Sheridan’s chief worlk, and those who “‘assisted in front” last evening were not altogether disappointed. It was a vresentation eminentlyspraisewortly, but as there were patches on the beauties who nved and ioved ‘‘when George the Third was king,” so all was not perfect in this latest reyival of Sheridan as seen at the Boyd. There was no attempt whatever made at proverly setting the comedy. The screen was there, to be sure, and the por- traits of Charles’ ancestors were there, but every other article of stage furniture and furnishing was an anachronism that must have offended vho eye of each critical on- looker. It were wise hereafter to cut Joseph's speech ancnt the new arrangement of Yis library, uniess the scene be set to fit it: last night the lines sounded ridiculously. This is the ouly notable fault to be found with Miss Wainwright's production as seen in Omaha. It possesses many notable excellences. A fine reverence for the text of the comedy is ovident, which cannot be too highly praised, when Elizabethan and Georgian —verbal spades are so frequently and exasperatigly cmasculated to tissue-wrapped agricultural implements on the stage. There are one or two *gags” introduced by Moses arnd Crab- tree, but it would seem impossible to convict an actor of the enormity of that too prev- alent offense agalnst his author and art, and the fact is g:ued. The dressing of the com- edy would beflawless were Mrs. Candour and Lady Sneerwell bepatched, as they should be. The performance last night had remarka- bly fow weaknesses. Miss Wamnwright's Lady Teazle is an artistic gem worthy to be set beside her Viola. In feature, dress, bearing and speech it was admirablo. While following broadly the traditional lines limned by the great actresses whose Lady T es have earned place in the portfolios of strionic appreciations, Miss Wainwright's performance has an individuality all its own and delightfutly distinctive. Her slight ions in the quarrel scene .must be characterized as improvements, and even her “Forgive me, Sir Peter,” in the de- noument of the screen scene only the hypercritical might cavil at. Her gowns deserve columns of description, and only a poet could do justice to that fan she flirts, of feathers that have caught the paling yellow that glorifies the apple sky when the September sun has just sunk below the level line of western.prairie horizon. Miss Wain- wright's Lady Teazle has the fine “‘air” essary to adequate presentation of high comedy; at the end of the screen scene sho ovinced a tendency w moderniza the charac- ter, intentionally disregarding, mayhap, the fact that *“The School for Scandal’ is an artificial comedy, and the greatestof all artificial comedies, in which ‘‘sentiment” itself is an affectation—but the purist is nov pular, and the critic is sincere in saying ho has nover seen a better Lady Teazle, taken all in all. ‘The company supponlng Miss Wainwright is o fairly oapable one. 'The Charles of Mr. Ingersoll and the Joseph of Mr. Hartwig are cutirely satisfactory. Mr. E. Y, Backis is eminent in the cast as Sir Oliver, and Mr, Bruge's Moges is adequate. The Crabtree of Mr, Peroy Brooke is not the Crabtree of Sheridan, ip 1s one of the best parts ever written for a young actor, but Mr. Cecil %4.5};\:{ has not yet mimed its meanings, or o 16 express his conception.

The ladies all aoquit themselves well, Miss Kate Blancke spéakivg the speeches 8f Lady Sneerwell especially well, and in the perfect spirit of Sheridanian (-omudg. And now as to Mr. Hill's Sir Peter, it is unsatisfactory. Even given his gwn conocep- tion of the character, his expression 1s inad- equate and woefully ipeffective. He follots the old, old traditlon 0f Sir Peter, but fails of cousistency efen there.

GREAT SHOOTING MATCH THIS MORNING Frank Parmeles of Omaha Kills Ninoty- Eight Birds of a Possiblo Hundred, Beat- ing Ameriea’s Champion, J. R, Elliott Easlly—The Score. A crowd of several hundred sportsmen assembled on the Omaha shooting grounds across the river this morning to witness the 100-live bird shoot between Frank S. Parme- lee of this city and J. A. R. Elliott of Kansas City, the holder of the American Field cup and champion of America. As Tur Bee has claimed for several years past, Parmeclee is one of the greatest all around trap shots in the world, if not the groatest, as ho is equally good on live birds and targets, either single or double, DAnd yesterday he didn't do ® thing to the champion, only beating him hands down by the magnificent score of 93 to 91, out of a possible 100. What makes the 1ocal performance more remarkable is the f that his score has been equaled only five or si1x times in individual matches and sur- passed but three times. K. D, Fulford has i record of 100 straight birds, and so did the late Al Bandle. Captain John Brewer has killed his 00, and that is the extent of the record above Parmelee’s, The weather this morning was all that could have been asked, barring a trifle too much frigidity. The sky was overcast with somber clouds I‘A‘.Ilh‘l'"li[ the light admirable, and the wind, while quite stiff and sweeping transversely over the grounds from the northwest, was not too heavy to interfere materiaily with the flight of the mrds, Each man furnished the others birds,- El- liott having his lot expressed here from Kan- sas City last night. They were a fair lot of good fiyers, but were somewhat hampered by the cold. Condltions and Result, The conditions of the match were 100 birds, 31 yards rise, American association rules, for $100 a side. George K. Hughes of Fonda, Ia., was mutually agreed upon as eree and S. G. V. Griswold as official scorer for Parmelee and W. T. Irwin of Kan- sas City for Elliott. Parmelee used a 7 pound Greener, with three drams of o] powder and an ounce and one-eighth of No. 7 chilled shot, while Elliott used a 715-pound Greener with three and one-quarter drams of E. C. powder and an ounce and an eighth of No. 7l¢ chilled shot. ~ Parmelee killed his ~fiesy fifty- four birds straight, and in the whole shoot missed but his 55th and 91st birds; while Elliott missed his 6th,9th, 12th,41st,46th, 56th, 64th, 65th and 84th birds. Parmelee's great- est straight score was 54 birds, and Elliott's Parmelee used his second barrels 49 times and Eliiott 41. Three of Elliott's lost birds fell dead out of bounds. The use of the second barrel, however, is no criterion to #0 by as to the efticacy of each man's work, as both used it frequently as a mere matter of safety. Parmelee was in great form, while Elliott showed too much anxiety to win. As to the merits of the men on general L!ruuuds, the score 18 the best in- dication to go by. The Kansas City parties offered 2 to 1, and not a few of them went home broke, or at least badly bent.

The case was that of Wiur I, Willis against Martin Frelan, appealed from Woodbury district court, and tho decision of the lowor court is reversed. The plaintiff was arrested and fined $10 and costs by the defendant, police judge of Sioux City, for frequenting a bawdy house. Willis had put up a certificate of deposit in lieu of bonds and the police judge ordered the fine paid from the certificate and balance re- turned. Willis then elected to take the jail part of the sentence instead of paying the fine. He was not coafined, but upon the re- fusal of the police judge tosurrender the certificate brought action in justica court to recover the whole of the certificate. The case went to the district court and judgment was secured against defendant police judge ved. The supreme court now reverses the decision, holding that Willis had the right to pay the fine to avoid imprisonment but had no right to go to jail to avoid paying the fine. The judgment against him might be satisfied either by collecting the fine or im- prisonment, but” the court was to be the judge of which method to pursuo.

Action was brought by the tax- payers of the county to enjoin the payment of "$120,000 county bonds issued ata time when the constitutional limit of taxation was but §71,876. The supreme court holds the bonds are all void and that the only remedy of the bondholders is to bring action in equity against the county. The fact that part of the bonds were issued for refunding purposes and that part were for making county improvements can not be considered in this case.
