The case of Maude Bryant against Omaha & Council Blufts Bridge company aid not come to trial yesterday, as was ex- pected, an agreement having been reached between the attorenys for a continuanc until October 25. The basis of the agree- ment was a stipulation by the attorneys for the defense that the question of the com- pany's liability should be urged, the only point at issue being the amount of the lia- bility A verdict was rendered in favor of the de fendant in the case of the Central Building and Loan association against the Phoenix In- surance company. The suit was brought to recover insurance on a house destroyed by fire, the amount of the policy being §1,700 The main point of the defense was that afier the insurance policy had been issued the property passed into ether hands than the person owning it at the time the policy was written. The insurance company was not notified of the change of ow and no application had been made by the mew owner to have the insurance policy transferred. The manner in which the Building and Loan association became involved in the suit was that they had loaned the money used in the constru tion of the house, and held u mortgage as collateral. The insurance company oftered to settle the dispute at one time by the pay- ment oi $1,100, but the loan association re- Jected the offer. The case will be appealed A motion for dismissal was filed by th city attorney in the case of J. B. Fulton against the city. Fulton filed a petition al- leging that the city had “blacknfailed” the saloon keepers by the monthly fine system during the prohibition days, and demanded judgment for the amount of the “blackmail.” A motion for a more specific statement was sustained by the court, and, as Fulton did not come to time, a dismissal is called for. the Not How Cheap, but Kow Goo Nice for the P That s what every one says when they are told the price of the new style shoes DUNCAN is recelving every day from the largest. and best factories in the east.

LONDON, Oct. 18.The most notable thing in connection with the past theatrical week black satin rhadame, was $1.00, |y, wo will sell al | What he co Entire lot Monday at one | has been the action of the county council in | refusing “a drinking auditorium™ license to | the Empire theater and requiring the closing of its promenades, It is an incldent of the annual attack upon the music halls license by the soclal purity leaguers and the vigil- ance comittees, etc. This year the evidence against the Palace theater is mainly that two anonymous Americans have professed to have awfuily shocked at the ballet, which caused the Pall Mall Gazette to remark: | | a | “This reveals Americans in London in quite & new light." Manager George Rdwards, however, will not give in without making a sturdy fight. He announces that he will appeal to the county councll, and that failing to obtain iders justice from that body _immediately close the Empire theater, | fhus’ throwing 1,000 people out of employment .| Just as the winter is approaching. | The Palace theater, on the other hand, has y fur capes, full | succeeded in getting its license and there was | no opposition to the application of the Al- its official permission to con- | tinue business as heretofore, although both of these places are considered to be equally guilty with the Empire theater in the charges brought against the latter establishment. The kaiser has promised to be present at the opening of the Royal theater at Wies- baden on Tuesday next. No play is produced nowadays but there is rancorous dispute as to plaguarism In connec tion with the main incidents, but beyond newspaper warfare the matter is not allowed 10 go. In France, however, they are about to carry it further, and a commission of French authors is to sit some time in November to try the question whether or not the plot of Signor Leon Cavalos' successful “Ipiglacol” was borrowed from *‘La Femme de Tabarin' of Catulle Mendes, To an outsider the anger of Catulle Mendes seem¢ superflious as the incident of an actor killing his faithless wife in full view of the audience is very old. It oceurs in “Yorick," which the late Lawrence Barrett made familiar throughout the United States, which is well known was taken from the Spanish “Drama Neuvo'" of Tamalto. It also appears to have been the central scer in an old Italian drama called “La Rimina CAMPANI WILL SETTLE IN LONDON Campani writes that he has made up his mind to settle in London as teacher and con- cert singer. He has been engaged for the title part in Berlioz's “Faust” at the Ro theater at Berthall on December 19. Beerbohm Tree opened the Haymarket Sun- day with his remarkable and successful Grun- dain comedy, “A Bunch of Violets.” During his just ended tour, in what the English arc pleased to call the ‘'Provinces” made her debut as @ page in *The Monger” and fortuvately for this 10-ye leading lady, she had the happiness of ing her debut before the queen.

Henschel's ninth season of symphony concerts will begin at the Queen’s hall No- vember 1. Four 0f the nine concerts will be given by Henschel's Scottish orchestra, which will be rehearsed in Glasgow, and which will travel up to London for these occasions. Among the less familiar wo ks are Carl Gold- mark’s new overtiire,'“Sappiio,” the prelude to Humperdink's “Hansel Und Grotel,” the opera which, on various German stages, has gained such marked success during the past years, in “‘Memoriam,” Louls Kossuth,” by the Hungarlan composer, Emanuel Moor, and Dvorak's new symphony in E. During twenty weeks twenty-nine concerts will be given, and among the soloists figure the names of Lady Halle, Dr. Joachim, Signor Piatti, Herr Stavenhagen, Mesdames Ella Russell, Esther Palliser and Marion M'Quenze and Mrs. Edward Lloyd and David Bispham. Hayden Coffin will give a short series of I recitals at Steinway hall, beginning on Monday next. Admiration for Mr. Cofiin's personal appearance Is one of the minor cults of London. Sir Edward Sullivan has returnsd to Lon- don for the winter, with his health restored He will immediately finish the music for “King Arthur” and will then finish the music for the Eppire theatr ballet if the Empire is opened. Sir Arthur will then work on the oratorio for the Leeds festival. MISS KENWARD GOES TO BERLIN. Edith Kenward has just accepted a flatter- ing offer to appear at the Ernst theater, Be lin, for two months next summer. She wili be the only English speaking member of the cast. which will produce “The Chinaman,” Herr Adolph Ernst having bought the Ger- man rights of Tresahar's play upon seeing it here at the Trafalgar. Miss Kenward is to play her part of the American circus rider in that broken German-English common to tourist, cirous rider, or othetwise. Ceeil Melnotte has been excesdingly busy during the past week attempting to finish the details of the joint appearance of “The China- man” and “A"Trip to Chinatown™ at Toole's, The plain facts of the case are, “The China- man’ had grown to a popular success just when previous arrangements compelled” its withdrawal—Miss Melnotte having leased the Trafalgar for the production of “My Ivanhoe' from the 4th of October. On the other hand, “A Trip to Chinatown” was not well enough cast to make it a success. Miss Melnotte's idea was that the two could be sandwiched, laying alternate nights, and if it was found “A Trip to Chinatown" did not pay, the sue- cessful “‘Chinaman” would certainly draw good business to the house, Great preparations have been made at the Avenue, which opens Thursday next, more for the purpose of restoring May Yohe to London playgoers than from any remarkable success that can be anticipated from the production of “The Lady Slavey.” Miss Yohe will sing a catchy song by Joseph Watson, for which Mrs. Watson has written very charm- ing music. Whatever success the plece may achieve will result from the cleverness of the performers and the incidental music. Ellen Terry, who has been suffering from severe nervous exhaustion, writes that she has nearly entirly recovered. The complete rest she has been taking at Tower cottage, Win- chelsea, has Justifid the physician’s orders and Miss Terry i now enabied to give sev- eral hours a day to the study of her next role, Tuinevere, In “King Arthur.” Before Mr. Irving started on his provincial tour the firsl rehearsals of Comyns Carr's play took place at the Cavendish rooms. Porbes Robertson is to have a part in it. CELEBRATING STRAUSS' ANNIVERSARY At Vienna the celebration of the fiftieth an- niversary of the debut in music of Johann Strauss, the “WaMz 'King,'' is progressing Last night, as already-cabled, Strauss’ charm- ing new operettas “The Feast of Apples, which promises to bs'world famous, was pro- duced. The prinefpal item of the program, however, will be @ npw and apropos ballet, “Roundabout Vienua,': in which will be intro- duced the melodies of some of the famous of Strauss’ waltzes, beginuing with the “Erste- godanke,” written, when he great composer was a boy, Then there will be the imperish able “Blue Danube,” and, of course, the lat- est “New Vienna." During next week, in addition, “Die Fieldermaus” will be given at the Vienna opera house, and there wil be a festival at the hall of the Musical society, during which selections from Strauss dramatic music will be played. This will be followed by a reception at the Josefstaeder theater. The next morning Strauss will be serenaded by the famous Singing society of Vienna. Albert Chevaller, the famous ‘oster" singer, was married on Monday last to Florrie Leybourne. Signor Foli is going to the United States in April next.

I opens at Beechmere, on the Hudson, an es- tate that had been left by Mr. Chandler In charge of his steward, Thomas Carrington Chandler, while abroad with his son and only heir, Lawrence, dies in Egypt, and later Carrington hears of the son’s death. By virtue of long and undisputed possession, he comes to look 1 the estate as his own and through the machi fons of Brooke Brown, a supposed friend, e loses consider- able in speculation. After years Lawrence Chandler returns to claim his own; Carring- ton is about to make a clean breast of his shortage and attempt reparation when Brooke Brown appears, and a series of complications ariges, involving Carrington, his daughter. Christine, Chandler and Brown. A tragedy is averted by the timely appearance of Sam Dorrick, a gawky law student, in love with Christine. The succeeding acts are lald in Oklahoma, where the Carringtons are followed by Brown, who is determined to gain the hand of Christine. By artful subterfuge he fastens the crime of stage robbery upon Carringlon and induces the vigilantes to lynch him The arrival of Chandler, the interference of Derrick and the aid of Sheriff Jorden frus- trate Brown's designs, but not without several exciting scenes, including a clever fistic encounter and later a novel sword com- bat between Chandler and Brown, and a lynching lcene, in which the victim is actually strung up; also a tar-and-feather episode, in which the villlan gets a free ride on the proverbial rail.
