In this play Miss Ang- lin, or rather the Lady Ursula, has an adventure which consists in masque- 5’ ding in male attire. And it the trousers of this same male attire that d@re the cause of all the lady’s trouble. Miss Anglin played Ursula with Sothern & in New York and arranged to wear on Monday ever ame gowns and g8 & costumes she showed in the Empire City. The costumes were sent for and & e arrived yesterday, and oh! the pity of it! Miss Anglin had grown stouter g & @nd the trousers were tight. The suit, an elegant affair in green velvet, all & % Cmbroidered in gold, the lady would not lay aside, and sc started on a hunt e3 to match the green velvet. To her horror Miss Anglin discovered that there are several hundred different shades of green, and that the particular verdant shade she wanted was not to be fourdd. A tailor was called in and by means known only.to his artful self he managed to find tiny strips of the velvet stowed away in the seams and hems, and this material he converted into “gussets.” Now the trousers fit the actress, and no one would ever have sus- pected there was a “gusset” in the whole thing if she herself had not told it. # OROROLOROLAR A RORORORIRORCRORON, RO RORO QY LORORARORNG 2RO 83 280! | 1 3 | | his| =l CONSTERNATION IN THE COUNTY CLERK’S OFFICE MANY OF THE DEPUTIES WILL HAVE TO GO. Mr. Deane Will Return To-Day and Decide Upon the Ones He Will Retain. There was consternation among the employes of the County Clerk’s office yes- terds over the decision of the Supreme t to the effect that only twenty-nine Con es were entitled to pay. The County is permitted to apply for a rehear- and he will undoubtedly do so: but the men most affected can find little rea- son to hope that the Supreme Court will reverse its own ruling, and they are won- where they can find other jobs.

There will be a four-round scientific exhibition of sparring given by Tom Sharkey at Glen Park this Sunday. Spider Kelly will be his sparring part- ner and the exhibition will be given on the outside stage on the recreation grounds. Four rounds will be the limit of the bout. An effort is being made by a locai syndicate to held the Jeffries- Sharkey fight in this city at Glen Park. ! Sharkey has already been made an of- fer to fight here, but since the stern clubs have commenced to bid on the match it will be nece: for the local ndicate to almost double the bid which has already been made to hold the fight in this city. e e Nolan Family Troubles.

She says senthal called at her mothe house, noon and when she refused to allow him 1o enter the house he struck her cn the eye. —_————— An Ex-Convict Wanted. A warrant was sworn out yesterday by W. H. Danlels, manager for Frank Les- lie's Illustrated Magazine, for the arrest of Charles Seley, an ex-convict, on the charge of misdemeanor embezzlement. Seley has for some time been engaged to colléct subscrintions, and it has been dis- covered that he has been appropriating them to his own uses and purposes. The amount will aggregate over $100.
