SICKLES' ARREST ORDERED Accusation Comes as Climax of Dis tinguished Career. Albany, N. Y. Upon application of the state authorities, the supreme court issued an order for the arrest of General Daniel Sickles, of New York who as chairman of the New York Monuments commission is alleged to have failed to account for 128,476 ef the commission's funds. The total amount of the alleged shortage was 33,476, but on December 20 last Stanton Sickles, a son of the general, paid the state $5000 and prom ised to make good the remainder as soon as certain property in Spain, owned by Mrs. Sickles, could be sold. The order for General Sickles' ar rest comes as a climax of a distin guished and picturesque career. Born in New York in 1825, of a wealthy fam lly. General Sickle served as a sold ier, legislator and diplomat At the outbreak of the civil war General Blck les raised and equipped at his owa ex pense, five regiments ef voluitters, and as colonel ef one of them went to the front He participated in most of the great battles of the war.

He neglected to inform the newspapers of the big doings and as a consequence this production one of the greatest local dramatic successes of the year failed to receive the re cognition last week which it so amply deserved. The three-act comedy, the principal characters in which were taken by talented local comedians, scored a dis tinct hit when given before a crowded house. The leading characters were taken by such local stars as R. E. Scott, C. F. Gilbert, Arthur Clarke, J. P. Lucas, Herbert Phillips, Harriett Hansen, Florence Schmeltzer, . Ethel Kier and Mrs. J. P. Lucas. The comedy was full of action and abounded in laughable situations of which the caste made the most. Gil bert and Clarke rivaled Weber and Fields as laugh-provoking comedians It transpired after the show that Clarke had let slip the remark before the performance that he was going to spring something new on his sid partner and "get his goat" before the audience. Wind of this scheme reach ed Gilbert, it is said, and upon hi first opportunity.while Clarke was still a little flustrated, demanded "what hi name was, anyway." For the life of him Clarke couldn't remember that his euphoneous stage label was "Ker shaw" and for half a minute you could have knocked him over with a feather, so his fellow comedians declare. How ever, he recovered sufficiently to carry through his part in an effective man ner. The program was interspersed with pleasing musical numbers rendered by a chorus which was composed of the following: Marie Bart mess, Lillian Brock, Ethel McDonald, Elizabeth King, Dotherty Baker, Jessie Howes, Elizabeth Car son. Myrtle Husbands, Marion Howe Ella McDonald, Jewel Taylor, Gertrude Nickelsen, Ruth Harris, llilma Imliolz Wilma Thompson, Ruth Barrett, Clara Rand, Katherine Baker, Mary White head, May Klinger, Lena Bartlett Frances Castner, Florence Castner Beatrice Shreve. These performed their part extraordinarily well. The entire performance, which was produc ed under the direction of W. E. Gra ham, was most creditable. It was pre sented under the auspices of the La dies' Aid of the Congregational church. ALLEGED BLIND PIGGERJRRESTED L. Touscher was arrested by Marsh al Lewis and Deputy Sherift Hart the last of the week. Seven indictments were found against him by the grand jury charging him with violation of the liquor laws. He was out of town while the inquisitorial body was in session and was taken into custody upon his return. He lived in the shack back of the Blowers Hardware Com pany and search of his rooms showed a large quantity of bottles. The local officers have had him under surveil lance for some time. He is now out on $700 bail. BARRETT Having Bought the I Lumber Yard and business of E.
