LOCAL MISCELLANY. AMUSEMENTS. lI’VIOKEII’S THEATRE. After devoting Ihroo yields to •‘Brother Sam,” Mr. Bothorn returned again last evening to Robertsonian comedy, and produced “David Oarriok " to a house bolter than tho heat of tho flay would have rendered probable. This Was played during bis first engagement at tho Academy of Music with considerable eclat, ana may bo reckoned among tbo most successful pieces of the season. Tho cast in essentials Was tho samo as that of last evening, ex cept that at tho Academy tho vart of Squire Chivy was played by Lytton Bolhom, and rendered with far mote polish and neatness than could have boon anticipated. Mr. Weston is not a strong substitute for tho younger Bothorn. With this exception, however, tbo cast was a strong ono, and tho pioco was very smooth and enjoyable. Wo have here tofore expressed admiration of Mr. Bothorn a presentation of Oarrick, It Is a legitimate piece of acting, and full of merit. Tho sputlmoub of tho picoo is high’, and expressed by tho comedian with groat force. Tho drama was written for Idm by Mr. Robertson, and ho Is tho only war riok upon tho stage. Hja representa tion of Garrick is unlike any oth er In that it gives some admirable opportunities for melodramatic elocution In very comical contrast with tho easy colloquial dialogue in which Mr. Sothom is so thoroughly at borne. Mr. Bowers’ acting of Inrjot wo bare boforo praised, and it Is unnecessary to do luoro than to roitorato ibis verdict in a general way. Miss Walton is charming in any part she plays, and If sho excels In any it is that of .Ada Inqot, in Which sho has more to do. Tbo minor parts aro Troll played. “ Dundreary Married and Bottled,” with which tho performance closes, is a wild af fair, delightfully absurd, and heartily enjoyable. Uhls is Mr. Bothorn’s last week for a long time, ns bo will not bo back next season. Those wtio fail to soo him iu those two pieces will regret tbo omission. DALV'fI COMPANY Ero playing “ Monsieur Alphonse ” to good ouboh, in spite of tho boat. To-ulgbt and tho tnatinoo will bo tbo last chances to soo tho picco. Saturday night will bo tho second “ old-otmiody night,” when Boucicault’s *• Old Hoads and Young Hearts ” will bo played. Monday “ Charity,” tbo groat hit of tho season, will bo given. PERSONAL. Among other tboaliiciilcolcbrltlea enjoying tho cool lake breezes of this city aro Mr. Charles Gaylor, tho well-known author, and Miss Katie Mayhow, who a fow years ago was a groat favor ite in tho city.

Over 100 teams have already boon secured, hut oil tho • truck and box wagonsthat can join will bo need ed, and it is hoped, that as many ns cun wiil respond promptly. Mr. B. F. Guyton will bo Marshal of tho sixth division, of winch tho school hoys will form a part.

To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune ; But: Who that has scon the ugly specimens of boggardom who exhibit their deformities at tho corners of tho utrools, has not wished that they could ho removed to some hospital or ban ished from tho city ? It is a reproach to honest industry, and a violation of tho public taste, to allow deformed beggars to oxposo themselves to the public gaze. If they must display tholr de formities, Ist tho Connell pass an ordinance re quiring all beggars, of ovory description, to prac tice their calling in some designated locality whore people may go to boo thorn if thoy like, and not ho forced, as now, to gazo upon aud patronize them. Pass such an ordinance, exe cute it. aud reserve such a lot for tho human menagerie, and beggary and vagrancy would soon co&eoIn our midut. P. Q. LADIES OK SCHOOL COMMITTEES, To the Editor of The Chlcauo Tribune. Sm; If it is nob already the custom of the Chicago Board of Education to appoint ladies on the committees to visit tho public schools, wo Would suggest tho propriety and expediency of appointing such of our most intelligent lady cit izens au have manifested tho most interest in tho schools. Tho apportionment of two ladles to three gen tlemen on each School Committee would bo a graceful recognition of tho intluonce the sox now exerts la tho groat work of public education. And should any vacancies occur in the Hoard of Education, or now members bo elected, it might not bo an unheard of or improper thing to placo one or two intelligent women, who have had ex perience as teachers, in 011100. Tho cause of ed ucation must bo viewed from the standpoint of both sexes before it can attain perfection and administer equal justice to all. A. b. Ouioaqo, June IS, 1674. the sioiisr mo. To the Editor of The Chlcauo Tribune; Hut: One objeotiou urged against the present location of tho signal-station in this oily is that its Hag or light ou tho Major block cannot bo distinctly seen by the shipping in tho oiling. Would not this objection, if a serious one, ho obviated by placing tbo signals ou tho top of tho tower at tbo Water-Works, and also at the crib? It would not bo a bad Idea to connect Evan ston and Houth Chicago by telegraph with tbo Signal Btatlou, and display storm signals simul taneously at all these points. Buoh an arrange ment might bo ro&do with little or no expense to tho Signal-Service bureau, while the general ad vantage of timely warning to outlying vessels would ho almost incaloulnbio. E. Chicago, Juno 10, 1874. TUB NEW COURT-HOUSE, To (ht Editor of The Chxcnoo '/Vitim*; Bin: Tlioro Is tm evident determination on tbo part of tbo city and county rings to force tho immediate construction of tho Court-Houso upon tho people wbothor they will or not, Tho Common Connell and County Commissioners know full well that tho people aro burdened with other debts, and cannot aiTord this enormous expenditure with Us consequent and inevitable stealing, fraud, and defalcation. Tho rings have already made such headway In their scheme, that nothing will stop them except an uprising of pioporty-ownors. Lot mootings bo called at oueo and petitions circulated protesting against any further stops by tho Court-Houso Bings In their swindling conspiracy. If property-owners do not at once utter their protest in an omplmtio way, it wilt soon bo too luto to muko any effective opposition to tho Bing. k. d. Ouioauo, Juno 18, 1874. CRIMINAL.

John Welsh was held in SI,OOO bail to tho Grand Jury, yestorday. by Justice Scully, on the ohargo of burglary, attempted Wednesday night on tho canalboat Joseph.

Charles Milts, a literary thief in search of knowledge, was arrostod Wednesday for pur loining a volume of Dickens’works from William Arianu on South Clark stroot. Yesterday ho was brought boforo Justice Boydon, and took a change of vouuo to Justice DoWolf, who will assist him in tho laudable effort of improving his mind, by giving him quarters of quiet seclusion wherein to pursue his studies. Thomas Daroy a verdant youth from Janes ville. Wis., was taken iu Wednesday to.the tuuo of SBO. by Annie Kelly. Durey met hor on Clark stroot, and foil an easy victim. Bho invited tbo confiding Badger to “do tho city" with her. After drinking heavily, Darcy became very plia ble in tho hands of tbe woman, who, ho charges, rcliovcd him of ills pocket-book. Darcy lodged complaint at tho station. The girl was arrostod, and yesterday was brought boforo Justice Boydon, wlio bold hor over to tho Criminal Court iu bonds of SSBO. Last Saturday morning’s paper mentioned tho arrest of about a dozen men who gain their livelihood ov preying upon tho unsopliicated strangers visiting tho city, and of their having boon brought hoforo Justice Boydon the day be fore, and lined for robbing a man at tho house on Monroe street kept by Cbampliu. Among tho party arrested was one Henry Williams, who boars tbo euphonious alias Ho was fined S2O. mid tho assessment was paid by some ouo of his friends, Wednesday afternoon Williams was roarrostod ou a similar charge to that of last week, and yesterday morning brought before Justice Boydcu for tho second time. Tho witness against him was a sturdy, honest looking old farmer from Jefferson, Wls., by tho name of Homy Milter. Monday after noon ho was mot on State street by Williams, and decoyed to Champliu's, and there victimized out of 8100. Tho old gentleman identified tho prisoner as tho ouo who had mot him on State street. Williams went through tho farce of be ing sworn, and attempted to prove an alibi. Ho swore ho was ut Lincoln Park all that afternoon; never had scon the witness before; had not been in Cbamplhi’s for over a week. ole. A com panion of tho prisoner, “Billy" Whalen, was next introduced as a witness in his behalf. When requested,!© inform tho Court of hm occupation, tho reply was that his mother was a lady of oxtousivo property, and neces sarily needed some ouo to look after her inter cuts and act as her agent; this ho was doing. It is safe to presume that Mrs. Whalen does not allow William to collect any portion of her rents. Whalen swore that “ Nobby Tom " and himself dined at Burke's on tbo day in question, and after dining hied themselves to Lincoln Park, and did not return till Uto in tho evening. As an evidence of tho faith tho Justice put in tho statement of Whalen, tho young man who had nothing to do but look after his mother's estate, dino at Burke's, visit Lincoln Park, and associate with monte dealers, gamblers, and thieves, ho lined tho prisoner 861). Nobby Tom was furnished with refreshments and a gloomy coll of tho Harrison Street Station. Whalen swaggered out of tho court-room, mut tering to himself his opinion of tho Justice, which, as may bo supposed, was not flattering by any means. In the afternoon, Williams, through his attorney, took an appeal from tho decision of tho Justice. Judge Boydon is deter mined to do all within his power to break up tho haunts of thoso confidence-operators and monte-dealers, and if ho onnnot ho will at least make them a source of revenue to tho city, by fining them from S2O to SIOO. It is to bo hoped tho authorities will keep their eyes ou thoso men and arrest those engaged in tbo practice. The most notorious of those places is tho house of Champlin. It is known to tho police as a house whore all manner of frauds are practiced with perfect security. MISOELIAKEOUS. Beadier E.

Aud that ended tho case. A man named Charles Frondonhorg wos arrest ed yesterday morning by Dan Hogan, charged with fraud, and looked up at tho union Street Station. A short tlmo ago bo visited a Jewelry store at No. 21 West Madison street, kept by a Mr. Kell, and borrowed a watch to ornament Ins person at a ball ho intended attending, Having secured its possession, ho halted at Langley’s pawn-shop, on South Clark street, and pawned it.

Mc- Grath is tho prominent aspirant, John Oomiskoy having dropped out, and Tom llalpluo being un derstood to nave no chance. It has boon claimed by some of Mr. McGrath's opponents that his being an Alderman made him ineligible, but tills is an error, tho law of 1872 only forbidding tbo appointment of an Alderman by tbe Mayor, and not bis olootlon by tbo Council. imiDEWELL INVESTIGATION.

THE GO (JUTS. flliacollaiiootis Hiislncss Transacted Veatordny« Unco Brothers, tho proprietors of tho Now England Bostauraut at No. 161 South Clark street, began a suit against Swarthout, Acker man & Co., tholr lessors. Tho complainants slate that in August, 1873, they rented tho abovo mentioned business of tho defendants until May, 1874, at a monthly rental of SIOO. It was also agreed verbally that if they should elect to occupy tho promises for two years longer tho defendants would rent it to thorn at tho '* current rates,' 1 meaning at what tho samo should bo reasonably worth. When complainants had boon in possession for about a mouth, tho defendants' agent, Bobort S. Willcox, brought quo of thorn what purported to bo duplicate leases, and asked him to sign thorn. Ho not being a learned man, and withal some what in a hurry, signed tho leases without read ing them, relying on Wilcox's assertion that thoy were copies. Ho has siuco ascertained that they are old leases made to a former tenant, and changed by erasures, interlineations, and past ing paper over somo words, so as to bo apparently a lease to tbo complainants. They now assort that tho leases are not copies: that tholr so-called copy bus an omission of tbo words. “ and $2,000 each for second and third years,*' which is tho original in tho defendants' hands. Tina clause, in tho original, is a provision that tho complainants shall pay $1,200 a year for tho next two yours instead of at tho ’* currant rate." The com plainants allege that tho rout for the next two years will not bo worth more than SIOO u mouth that thoy have offered to pay tbo latter amount, which has boon refused: that tho defendants have sued them twice, hue in each caso taken a non-suit, and that thoy avo about to levy a dis tress warrant. Complainants therefore ask that an injunction may bo issued to restrain tbo de fendants from doing anything to annoy them, and that tho loaso way bo corrected so as to cor respond with tho verbal contract and intentions of the parties. An Injunction was grantoduudor a bond for $2,001). DILL TO UESTUAIN SALE UNDER TRUST-DEED. The Chicago & Northwestern Railway Com pany filed & bill yesterday in tlio Circuit Coiu't agamat 31. F. Hale, L. *C. P. Freer. Chester Dickinson, and Bonjaniin Lombard.

Benjamin Lom bard subsequently bought Halo’s rights. The trust-deed lor $33,333 has not been paid, and Freer has advertised the promises for salo. To prevent this, tho Company, filed its hill, alleging that Dickinson ought to pay tho umouut, aud that if ho do not, his portion of tho property should ho sold before complainant's right of way. It is also alleged that Dickinson extended tho payment of tho notes a your, ou condition that Lombard should pay tho in terest. and since then Lombard and Halo havo both become insolvent, and complainant thus boon prejudiced. Tho injunction was granted under bonds for $5,000. HEAVY SUITS you DAMAGES AGAINST THE CITY. Emily Thierry, by her next friend, Louis P.
