PECULIAR ROBBERY.

rofeesor Ilaselmayer tne Victim.

A BOumsKY under circumstances of a most peculiar nature, happened in the Theatre Itoyal last evening. After their perform ance at the Lome-street Hall, Professor and Madame Itaselmayer proceeded to the Theatre for the purpose of witnessing the screen scene from the " School for Scandal." They entered at the stalls door, ami took their places on the back seat which is placed close against the partition separating the pit from the stalls. The I'rofessor carried with him his satchcll, containing the taking at Lorne-strcct Hall, amounting to £25 15s, also Madame Haselmcyer'a jewellery, value £116. At the conclusion of tho piece, Professor and Madame left their seat hurriedly, for the purpose of avoiding the crush, but had not proceeded more that ten paces from the spot when Madame Hasel mayor asked the Professor if ho had tlie eatchel. He had left it on the seat, aud on going back found that it was gone. He en quired of. the door-keeper if he knew any persons who had occupied the stalls or pit. inquiries were made, and a boy stated that he had seen a woman reach over the barrier, and presently lie observed her in the act of handing a satchel, like the one the Professor had described, to a woman in the pit. The boy gave a description of tho woman, but did not know her name. Infor mation of tiie Professor's 10-s was communi cated to the police, and Mr Pardy, accom panied by Detective Brcnnan and Constable Graham, at once proceeded to tho residence of Mrs Freestou, who, it was ascertained, had been to the theatre with her daughter and husband. Mrs Freeston at once ad mitted that she had the satchel in her possession, but that it was given to her by a stout woman, who asked if she (Mrs Freeston) had lost it. She handed tho satchel to the police, with the money and jewellery, apparently undisturbed. Mr Pardy and the police are entitled to credit tor their promptitude and success in this matter, and especially under such circum stances.

THEATRE ROYAL.

MISS BEAUDET'S BENEFIT,

THE Theatre ltoyal was moro largely attended last evening than on any previous occasion during the present season. This increased patronage was no iloubt due to the fact that Miss Beaidet, who has won golden opinions from the Auckland critics, was announced to take a complimentary benefit. The performance commenced ■with Shakespeare's well-known comedy, "As You Like It." The part of Kosalind was. capitally played by the charming beneliciare. She possesses all the bewitching grace and charm of manner necessary for the success ful impersonation of one of the most pleasing of the Shakespearian heroines, and her acting was very effective. " Touch stone " was the part selected by Hcrr Band mann for representation, and, although the character is strictly but one of secondary importance, yet it requires ability for the deliverance of the text iv such a manner that none of the witty sayings and jokes with which it abounds may be lost. That Herr Bandmann was successful was evidenced by the frequent applauee. He also occasioned considerable amusement in the love-scenes with Audrey. Mr J. Mus grave made a splendid Adam, and his acting iv the part was really good. "Urlaudo" was well impersonated by Mr C, Hall, aud the melancholy Jaques by Mr J. F. Cathcart. Most of the other charac ters were well sustained. The " Cuckoo " song, by Miss Beaudet, was well received. This young lady has a clear voice of moderate range aud compass, and she used it to advantage. The performance con cluded with the laughable screen scene from Sheridan's "School for Scandal." Mr Musgravo appeared as Sir Peter Teazle, Miss Bcaudct as Lady Teazle, Mr C. Hall as Joseph Surface, and Mr Catbcart as Cnarles Surface. The scene was well performed, aud caused considerable amuse ment. "Richard III." is announced for this evening.

POLICE CO URT. -This day.

{Before John Cosgrave, Esq., J.P.) DRUNKENNESS. Richard Dougherty, Daniel Dull", and Anne Swift were lined 5s each ior this offence. TEMPORARY INSANITY. Frederick Rowe, by trade an upholsterer, was bronght up on a charge of drunkenness, but was unable to plead as he was suffer ing from delirium tremens, in consequence of excessive drinking. Mr Pardy explained that prisoner was in a state of temporary derangement, and fancied that nc was haunted by demons who were intent upon taking his life. Remanded for eight days. This was all the business.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE RAILWAY LINE.

'■' \Wt TKLEORAPII—I'KESS ASSOCIATION.]

DUNEDIN, Friday. A MAN named Thomas Bell was killed last night on the railway line close to the city. He was time-keeper of the Government workshops, and was evidently walking along the line homewards when the tram overtook him and mangled him fearfully, One leg was altogether cut off, and the other one was merely hangiug by shreds. The body was only recognised as that of Bell by a letter iv his pocket.

DUNEDIN, this day,

According to facts as yet disclosed no blame can be attached to anyone, both crossing-keepers being at their posts. David Thompson, eugino-driver, states that he whistled at Anderson's Bay Koad, and again while approaching Ocean Koad. He does not recollect souuding the whistle at the spot where deceased was found. He * did not see auy one on the line, and the first intimation he got of any obstruction was something touch ing the brake. He theu slackened speed until he reached Kensington platform. From enquiries made late in the evening it appears in all probability it was not Walton Park train, but that which arrived at Dunedin about 6 o'clock from Mosgiel, •which ran over deceased; indeed, there are facts which point to this conclusion. On the cow-catcher of the Mosgiel train's engines quantity of human hair was found. A pool of blood was also noticed on the Danediu side of the place where the body was found, implying that it must have laid bleeding at this spot for a considerable time before it was dragged in the direction of Kensington crossing. The probabilities are that deceased was knocked down by the train coming in from Mosgiel and then run over and dragged for some distance. The engineer of the Walton Park train, however, did not notice anything unusual on this journey. Deceased was fifty years of ago. He was married and leaves a family of eeven. His wife says that ho left home to take a walk at about 4 o'clock. He had not been to work that day, having been up all the previous night attending to his children, who were down with the measles. At the time of the accident ho was evidently re turning home by way of the railway line, as he lived at the workshops.

The Baltimore " Every Saturday " cora raencfis an item with, " An old woman died iv the West Kndtfast week." It is supposed the result was ]ust as fatal as if she had died all over.

A NOCTURNAL SENSATION.

Exposure of a Gay Lothario.

Ail Unfortunate Amour

A most sensational scene occurred last evening in that portion of Upper Que6n-stroet which lies to the south ward of Karangahapc lload. It consisted in the punishment by a jealous husband of another man whom he had found in the house with his wife. The whole of the cir cumstances in connection with the r.ffrtir have been related to us, aud would furnish ample material for a three-volume novel. Such cases as that now under notice we seldom brought under public notice in Auckland, but it may safely be inferred that they furnish the cansc|for a great deal of that domestic infelicity which too fre quently exists in homes that should be pleasant and happy. The persous immediate ly concerned] in the row last ni»ht are a man named lYiahon, who has recently been employed as cook on the steamer Enter prise, liia wife Lizzie Mahon, and Frederick Goodall, a young man who holds the posi tion of bur'tender at the Wavcrley Hotel, Mahon aud his wife were married about three-and-a-half years ago, Mrs Mahon being then only 17 years of age. They have one child, a boy of about 12 or 15 mouths old. The pair lived happily until last January, when Goodall, who was esteemed by Maliou as one of his friends, entered the household

As a Destroyer of Domestic Happiness.

I He curried on a llirtation with Mrs Million, and the husband of the latter having detected a hecret correspondence, quarrels eusued, which resulted in their separation for some months. Goodall con tinued his intimacy with Mrs Maliou, but she effected a reconciliation with her hus band, and ictuiiied to his house about three months ago. She promised thai; sue would not have any further correspondence with Good all, but letters were subsequently found passing botweon them, and further quarrels ensued. Mrs Million again assured her hus band that if he would forgive her, she would Dot «ive him any further cause for complaint. He promised to do so, and desired her to obtain back from Goodall the letters she had sent to him. This she said she would do. Mr Mahon appeared to have doubted his wife's promises, as the following facts will show :—Yesterday morning Mrs Mahon sent the following note to her admirer :— Auckland, May 27th.—Dear Fred: I have goo.i news to tell you nt last. I tried to get a chance to tell you last night, but could not. Tom (her husband) is going to Te Aroha. He has got a billot there, lie goes from here by the Hotomaliana this morning. I expect I shall have to go next week. Will you come up to-night, Fred dear. I shall wait up until nine o'clock. 1 will bo on the verandah waiting for you till then. Hoping that you won't disappoint, as I shall be anxiously waiting for you, good-bye with lots of kisses.—l remain, your evcr-lovmg Lizzie. — Mrs Mahon says she sent this note for the pur pose of inducing him to go up so that she might get her letters back in ac cordance with the wish of her husband, Goodall, on the other hand, says she scut it to him in order to decoy him to the house, uud get her husband to assault him. It is, however, very certain that

Her Husband did not f/o to Te

Aroha, lie appears to have suspected that an in timacy between his wife and the young man Goodall still existed, and he remained here in order to watch. He denies having got his wife to write the letter as a decoy. Late in the evening, he saw Goodall drive np to the house ID a cab, and cuter the house with his wife, .The husbaud it is said caught Goodall by the neck, and commenced to inflict chas tisement with his lists. Goodall, however, held his arms as well as he could, and scrramed " murder" at the top of his voice. The . yels and imprecations attracted a large crowd of neighbours round the house, Goodall was the recipient of some heavy blows, inflicted by the infuriated husband, aud then he made a rush for tli6 door, whicU is half glass, llisj hands went through, and the broken glass lacer ated them to some extent. Mrs Mahou got the door open, and the struggle was renewed on the verandah. Mahou struck out at Goodall, but the latter succeeded in making his escape with the assistance ot Mrs Mahou. When he had got outside, he addressed the crowd, alleging that Mis Mahou had decoyed him there by means of a vote, her husband having been hid ing in the bedroom all the evening with the intention of assaulting him. Ho also said that Miihon had iutlicted serious injuries on him with the leg of a chair, and had partially bitten his nose otF. This is all denied, aud it is cer tain that his injuries are not of a very serious character. The police were mean while commuuieated with, aud after an examination into the facts they came to the conclusion that

Goodall Biddy Deserved Mis

Punishment,

Consequently they declined to prosecute Mahon. The circumstances are ot a pecu liar nature, aud with the object of getting a reliable statement of the facts, a representa tive of this journal to-day interviewed Mrs Mahon. She admits having been foolish and having encouraged Goodall out of a spirit of tun during the early part of the llirtation, but she says that receutly hejhas kept her iv constant trouble by sending her letters aud endeavouring to see her.

Mrs Million's Statement, I have been intimate with Goodall for some time. lie was a friend ot my husbaud before 1 became acquainted with him. In Jau. last 1 was boaiding with my husbaud in Alma House, Grey-street, aud Goodall was lodging there at the same time. He told me from time to time, in contideuce, certain stories about my husband's conduct, which 1 have since found out to be entirely without foundation. At the time, however, I believed them, aud my mind became poi soned. Their general ell'ect was that my husband was unfaithful towards me—that he irequented the company aud paid alters tions to otUer wocuen. X had theu been married just three years, aud up till that time there had been un pleasantness or trouble between us. I accepted as true the bad things itn putedjto Jmy husbaud, and refused to live with him any longer. He went away, and I remained at the boarding house, as did Goodall also. Several tinues he endeavoured to make free with him, but I always repulsed him, and eventually we quarrelled. I did not speak to him for nearly a fortnight.

Threatened Suicide,

Then he sent me letters begging forgive ness, and threatening that ualess I spoke to him again, ho would kill .himself. Ho also pretended that he was ill. About this time he stopped away from the boarding-house for a day or two, and therefore wrote asking me to Bay whether or not he could come back, in order that he might be put out of his misery. I understood from this communication that if I replied "No" he intended to kil! himself, arid therefore 1 wrote saying I had forgiven him, and that he could come back. Lie returned about 8 o'clock one evening, Went Voivh on His Knees. and began to cry like a child. Between his sobs he asked me if I would really forgive him, and I said that I would. lie was then out of work, and he therefore proposed to me that I should wait until he saved a little money, when wo could clear out together. I was foolish enough to make half-ptomiscr. All this "time he |had been industriously turning me against my husband by relating stories to me concerning his alleged infi delity. He took me out frequently for moonlight walks and 1 was constantly quarrelling with him. I lived apart from ray husband for three months, but during this time I often visited his house in order to see my child. On one occasion my husband entered into conversation with me, and after talkiug matters over together, We Ayrcetl to Make it Up. Goodall was away from the boarding-house on tne night that I saw my hus band, and ha was not aware, therefore, that I had gone back to live with with. My husband did not suspect that I had held any communication with Uoodall, or that 1 hail walked out with him at night. Two days after this, 1 returned to Grey-street for my things, and on my way there met | Goodall. He then commended to cry and said that he had been told that I had left the place, that I was the only woman he had ever loved, and that he would never trust a woman more. I lwd been carrying on this ilirta tion with him, you know, merely in fun, and I always ridiculed him behind his back. He was game for myself and my friends, and his great weakness for crying and sobbing led us to think that he was A tihiugla Short, After dryinS his sears ou the occasion I am now referring to however, he saill that he was on his way to the Post-Olfiee with a letter, and asked me to wait until he came entered the house, and Mrs Smith thentold me that he had asked her iv case I

should call to prevail upon me to await his return, He soon came back, and then began to chide me for being ao cruel towards him. He again professed his love for me, and threatened that if I did not love him in return, he would choke me. He asked me if I had not a little corner of my heart for him, and he told mo that no matter what my lmaband did o me in the way of cruelty (for 1 had complained of ill usuage) it would serve me right tor my treatment of him. He also declared that he would give ten years of his life to see something happen to me, as I had Broken His Heart, After that i frequently met him, aud he walked out with me a number of times. He used to come to tho house and see me while my husband was absent attending to his duties on the steamer Enterprise. My husband came home about six weeks ago, having left his situation on the Enterprise, and as ho was continually at home, Goodall was afraid to come near the house, but he wrote letters frequently to me, and I could not stop him. Tho letters were very loving and affection ate. They expressed the hope that some some day my husband would be dead, and ijhiit I would then be his alone. He Said that tiiis hope was to him like an oasis in the desert to a weary traveller, that it enabled him to couteud with the sorrows and troubles of thin weary world, aud that he would always love me devotedly and truly. (There was a great deal more affec tionuto stuff of this kind). I was very much afraid that my husband should find tlieHu letters which I was unable to prevent Goodall from sending. They were very sillly, and so full of nonaence and affection that 1 dreaded the possibility of their falling into bis hands. I there fore placed them in a hiding place, but My Husband Discovered Them.

He was very angry after lie reml them, and ho took them to Goodnll at Waverly Hotel, aud threatened that if he caught him sending any more notes to mo, he would make him sutler for it. This, however, did not have the desired effect. Goodall wrote to mo repeatedly, ami said he could not live without me ; that I "was tho joy of his heart, hia own precious darling Lizzie," 1 was foolish enough to reply to some of these cominuuiciitious, and tlicu lie wrote to me agaiu upbraiding me that my letters were not half loving euough. Kveutually, ivy .husband caught mo writing to him, aud the confieeiuenco was further quarrcla between us. This was only three weeks ago. We did not separate on this occasion, but continued to live together. I now determined to have nothing further to do with Goodull on any account whatever, but I was desirous of obtaining my letters back from him. I therefore weut dowu to the Waverley Hotel onu evening with a lady friend. Cloodall was standing at the door, and he joined up in Shortland-streot. 1 told him that I had been very silly in writing to him, and that

J Wanted My Letters Hack. I also said that 1 did uot wish to liavo any thing further to do with him, ;wd 1 told him uot to write auy more letters to me. Ho said that my husband had beeu to the hotel to punish him, but that the barmaid had prevented him from carrying out his intention. This was untrue. My husband only went to the Waverley once, and on that occasion Goodall was the ouly person he saw. She ehauged the subject, and re ferred to the unhappiueaa he was causing her. She begged that ho would atop writing letter to her. He said, in reply to her demivud for the letters that she had written to him, that lie would never part with thorn, lie wore thorn over his heart with her portrait. Ho was crying all the way up the street, and hctwecu his sobs lie said that lie wished Tom had hit him so that he could liavo had him put safely away for about 0' months. Then he asked uic to run away wity him, but I gavo him no answer. I told him to be quiet, and not be silly. The lady was still with us. He said that becavse I had not written or seen him, he had becomo bo unwell that he had been compelled to go to see the doctor. We asked him what the doctor had said was the matter with him, ami he replied "indigestion," at which wo both laughed. Il<; tool; the matter seriously, and continued to cry. His employer, he said, had recommended him to go away for a, time for the good of his health, and he asked mv to wiite |to him while lie was away. I would not give him auy promise, and told him there had been enough row about letters lately, lie replied, " Lizzie Darling, if you give me up.

! I Will I'ut an, End to Myself. I cannot live wtihout you." We told him to stop that soft talk as he would get over it some day, and left him crying iv the street. Letters had come frequently to her since theu, but I did uot see Goodall uutil last night. Another quarrel with my husbuud was ended by my promising to re nounce Ooodall for aver, and to obtain my letters buck from him. Tom said if I did 80 he would forgive me. X wrote the note yesterday, for the purpose of getting him to come up so that 1 might iuduce him to give me the letters. When he arrived he aaid, " Uh, darling, I have met you agaiu at last." 1 took him into the sitting-room, but the baby awoke, and I went into the bedroom to quiet him: Goodall came after me, but 1 sent him out. He had hardly eat down iv the sitting-room wheu 1 heard my husband come iv. Mrs Mahon's statement concluded by denying that her husbaud had been secreted in the bedroom, that ho had bitten Goodall's nose, or^ attacked him with the leg of a chair. Million's Statement. Mahon has furnished us with the follow ing statement of the affair : —I came with my wife and child, from Gisborue, about 12 months ago. Iv January last we lodged at Mrs Smith's, in Grey-street, where we met Goodall. 1 thought his relations with my wife weru too tree, aud I quarrelled with her about it, aud left her, takiug our child with me. I went to board with Mrs Holt, aud my wife came to me, and having confessed that she had held clandestine correspondence with Goodall, she promised to cease all communication with him. We agreed to resume marital relations, aud took the top apartments in ltoth's house, Upper Queen-street. About a month ago I fouud letters to my wife under the carpet. I took them to Goodall and charged him with writing them. He denied I hat they were his. I told him that if ever L found him corresponding with my wifo agaiii I would break his neck. I took the letters back and showed them to my wife. She said Goodall had been writing to her, but she had never re plied to him. (she also said that every time iie met her on the street he followed her. Suspicions engendered by this state of things led to domestic unhappiness. At last it was agreed that she should go with a neighbour to sec Goodall aud obtain from him all the letters of hers lie had in his possession, and tell him ho must make no further overture to her, that she would not correspond further, and would have nothing more to do with him. My wife ou her return said they could not see him. I was suspicious that it was not all right aud resolved to lay a trap. So I told her that I was goiug to To Aroha. I left the) house yesterday morning leaving my wife under the impression that I was going away by the steamer. I watched the house and saw her in a neighbour's. 1 then kept in the outskirts of the town all day, returning at dark, about the time wheu 1 knew Goodall left work. I saw him leave and jump into a cab, which drove along Karangahape-road. 1 ran after it, I aud saw him get out at the top of Upper J Quceu-strect. From the vacant allotment on the west side I could see my house. Goodall passed the side door, and stepping on the veranduh went iv at a door ou the side. I ran across aud crept up the stairs and followed round the same way. In going past the side door I saw ;i shadow on the window, and the footsteps of someone coming out of my bedroom into the sitting-room. The child was crying, and so 1 resolved to go right in. I did so, and found Goodall leaning over a round table in the sitting-room. I collared him with one hand, and dragged him out into the passage. He is stronger than me, but seemed cowed, and began to scream " murder" the moment 1 seized him. I began punching his head with ray fist. The " Herald " to-day says I hammered him with the leg of a chair. That is untrue ; I hud neglected to get a stick. 1 ouly wish I had had one ;he would not have got oil' so easily. Ho got clear of me and maoe a rush at the glass door to get out, but I had taken the pre caution to secure it when entering. I got hold of him again, and proceeded to pummel him. My wife was standing near screaming with the child which was also yelling, and as Goodall was likewise shouting " murder,' the din was deafening and attracted the neighbours. The child seemed likely to work itself into con vulsions with fright so I took it and released Goodall who took the chance of making his escape. I followed him on to the verandah and helped him over with a couple of vigorous kicks, but it ir untrue that 1 tried to throw him over. The fact is, in the excitement I didn't think of it, or I probably should have done it, Goodall weut amoni' the crowd, *aud afterwards went down aud repotted

the matter to the police. Detective Brennan and two others came up and ques tioned me and my wife. She admitted having sent Goodall a note that day saying I should bo away, and asking him to come round. Sue said, however, that she only did so in order to obtain her letters from him and tell him their correspon dence must cease altogether. Lipon hearinc theae statements the police told me to go down to the station this morning. 1 did so, and of course was told I might go. I did not, so far as 1 could see last night, leave any marks upon Goodall, but ho cut his hands con siderably when ho smashed through the glas* window in trying to get out, My wifu haa renewed her promise of good behaviour and believing this will prove a, lesson to Goodall to keep away 1 have agreed to forgive the past aud to live with my wife still for the sake of our child.

ISLAND NEWS.

[Pee Brigantink Ryno.]

By arrival of the brigantine Kyno, Captain Fernandez, from Marshall Mauds, we are put in possession of latest news from that ifuarter. Shipping waa very quiet and no other New Zealand vessels were in port, nor had been for some time prior to the arrival of the Kyno.

, The usual monotony which prevail-! at Uiosc islands; was soinewh;it broken in December last, when it became known that Captain Wright, formerly consulate at the J>uy of Islands, had been fouud dead with a bullet in his temple. Captain Wright resided at Ebon, one of tho islands in the Marshall Group, and was employed trading on behalf of a German linn named Ernskme (or Erusine). Prior to hia deatli he seemed in good health and spirits aud apoko cheer fully. He stated that he intended making it trip to America very shortly, and his death was quite unexpected. Uu wuh found (as tar as we can ascertain) in his own liouhu on the 19th December. Sus picion points to.tlio fact that tho unfortu nate man committed suicide, but soind of the residents rohihO to beliovo that such waa the case. Enemies, however, he had tew or none, aud waa generally well liked. The cause of his death must therefore have existed in some private prievunco.
