SUPREME COURT.

THIS WAY.

(Before Mr Justice Jillies.) In Chambers.

Whakg&rki Coal Co. v. Waller. —Mr Mahony appeared for fcho plaintiff company and Mr James Russell for Mr Scherff.—His Honor said that) he had looked into the matter, and he was of opinion that although the document could not in reality be au assignment, but merely an appointment of agent, still that was what was intended between the parties, and in equity must be held to-be equitably assigned, and con sequently the prior was entitled to succeed as he was first in the field, and had got their authority. Tho order nisi would be set aside as far as Craig was con cerned by consent, and as far as the Go vernment was concerned in regard to Mr Scherffs claims. —Mr Russell applied for costs, which were not allowed, His Honor holding that as it was an equity decision it was not a case in which costs should bo granted. Probate Orders.—Motions for probate were granted in the following estates: — Elizabeth Keefe and John Collidge.

In the Matter of William Caldwell (deceased).—Mr C. Buddie moved to pass finally accounts, and also for the executors' commission to be allowed.—His Honor said that certain information relative to the ad ministration of the estate was not shown on the affidavits filed. Neither was there an affidavit filed showing that tho applicants were appointed executoi - s. Ultimately His Honor granted the order as prayed, allowing 2 per cent, commission to the executors. Re Walter Brodie (deceased). —Mr Buddie applied that letters ot administra tion of this estate-should be granted to Frederick Battley.—Granted. Divorce Cask.—ln the matter of the Di vorce and Matrimonial Causes Act, 1867, and amendments thereon, Mr Theo. Cooper applied for directions as to service in the case of Edward Compton (peti tioner) and Jessie Brown Hardy Comp ton (respondent). Tho application was made under section 11 of the Act. He asked that an order should be made for personal service upon the respondent and co-respondent within 40 days, so that the ease mighb be tried at the January sittings. His Honor granted the order as prayed.

George William Owkk's Estate.—Mr Cave made a similar application' in this estate.—Granted. . : t

John Huohes's Estate.—Mr Button on behalf of the Official Assignee applied under section 9 of the Bankruptcy Act, sub-section 3 clause I), that a, deed of assignment or bill of sale made betweon John Hugbesand his wife, Eliza Hughes, bo cancelled. The affidavit filed showed that £340 had been paid as consideration for the assign ment. He quoted from section 4 of tho Chattels Securities Act Amendment Act, 1883, that the consideration should be truly set out;, also that no bill cf sale shall have any effect unless tho con sideration should be truly set out. Mr Button also read the affidavit filorl by the Official Assignee, Mr John Lawson, in which it vvas stated that he had examined Mrs Hughes, who , had admitted that she did not pay over any money at all to her husband at the time the deed of assignment or bill of sale was made, but that it was for consideration previously given.—His Honor said that the deed was clearly bad, owing to the want of consideration at the timo of granting, and accordingly set aside the deed. |

ALLEGED CHILD DESERTION AT THAMES.

THE ACCUSED DISCHARGED.

(by telegraph.— own correspondent.)

- •■■■■*'"■ '■■'•■ Thames, this day. Considerable: interest was taken in the case of the young girl Elizabeth Mary Ann Adamson McCoiniah, charged with desert, ing her, infant child, which was hcSard before the R.M. on Saturday, namely owing to the curious letter which was found left with the infant, in which astound ing charges were made against some person wn'ose name was not divulged. After evidence had been given of the tincl in" of the child, Constable O'Brien stated— According to instructions I searched for the accused girl on the 17th and 18th inst., and arrested her on the latter day near Mr Coombes' residence, up the Kauaeranga, on a charge of abandoning her infaut. She seemed to know that the police were after her, and said as much, i explained the chaive to her. After I had arrested her, the accused remarked thab.it would be a great shame to do anything to her, as she had only placed the infant there to keep it from starving, not being able to support it herself. On arriving at the police station, and gavo her name as Elizabeth Mary Ann -Adamson Me-. Cemish, and said "it was Campbell who had written the letter that she hnd left with her baby. She also stated that she had been living with Campbell for the last eighteen months, six months of which time she was at tho Thames. She said she was staying at Campbell's for the purpose of minding Mrs Campbell, who was subject to iits. " Mr Lush, who appeared for accused, asked for acquittal. Tho extreme youth of the girl should be taken into consideration. The girl had said that she was obliged to put the child on tho verandah to keep it from starving, as she could not support it, but with it she had left a letter. There was clear evidence that the girl couid not write, as she could not sign her liamo to the birth register. Ho contended that the letter was not the com position of a girl of 16, and tho writing bore evidence of having been written byaman who evidently endeavoured to disguise his hand writing. Were this the case, it would show that she was not acting by herself, but under what ho must term coercion. Tho main essence of the charge against the accused was that tho health of the child was liable to bo permanently injured by the exposures, but he contended that tho iniant was wrapped up in the most comfortable manner, and placed on the verandah very carefully, so that its health could not pos sibly havo been in any way injuried. His Worship said that under the circum stances he did not think the accused would be convicted, and she would accordingly bo discharged,

DISTRICT COURT.

This Day.

(Before H. G. Seth Smith, Esq., District Judge.) JUDGMENT SUMMONS OA9K. J. W. Thompson v. Eliza Thomas.—Claim, £31 11b.—Mr Clendon appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr Earl for the defendant.— After defendant had been examined, Mr Ciendon withdrew the judgment summons in order to take but a distress warrant. .iV&VKVD&V CASE. William Rosseb v. Walker Smith.— claim £91 10s 7d for servioeU' rendered. Mr Theo. Cooper appeared for the plaintiff and Mr Edwin Heeketh for the defendant. In opening the case Mr Cooper stated that two main questions were involved in the case. The first item of the "pnxticulare of demand " was for preparing plans and specifications at the rate of 2Jj per cent, on his accepted tender of £976 16s for tlio building of certain shops in Victoria-street for the defendant. Tho defence set up to tin's item was that plaintiff as con tractor for the erection of the shops prepared tho plans nnd specifications for nothing, in consideration of getting tho job to erect the shops. Tho second item was for balance of the contract price of £976 16b. It wae not disputed that the work had been done and properly done, but the defendant alleged that he had paid £900, given plaintiff a cart worth £20, and for given him an outstanding debt of £5 Hβ 5d which he contended squared accounts between them. Thore were some minor points of dispute bub the chief question would : be M'hat was was the nature of the agreement made between tho parties. Unfortunately tbeonly writing on this head was plaintiffs tender for the contract. Tho case has been adjourned till 2.30 p.m. on Wednesday, the evidence forplaintiff be ing still unfinished.

OPERA HOUSE-" UNCLE TOM'S CABIN."

Mrss Georcie Smithsow reopened the Opera House on Saturday nighfc with the produc. tion on a very complete and elaborate scale of the celebrated slave drama of "Unci e Tom's Cabin." Ib was mounted with the care and taste for which the enter prising manageress has established a reputation, and the. smooth and effec tive manner in which it was performed betokened diligent rehearsal. Moreover, the tariff of admission has been maintained at the exceedingly low rates of 2s, Is and 6d, so that the public haveithe opportunity of witnessing a highly meritorious perfor mance on singularly cheap terms. The venture should receive the cordial patron age of the public. Miss Smithson sustained with naarlted ability the triple role of Topsy, Gassy, and Eliza, and successfully preserved the individuality of each, her Topsy especially being a very decided "hit." Mr J. J. Walsh ably sustained the part of Uncle Tom, and brought outihto re lief the pathos with which it is invested. Mr Laurie Dunbar made the most of George Harris, and Mr McGowan " doubled " with good effect as Mr Wilson and the auc tioneer, while Mr F. W. Fisher presented the conventional stag© portrait of Simon Legrce. One of the best successes of the evening was the impersonation of Eva given by Roea Andrews, a pretty and intelligent child of six years. Miss Leonard's Amib Chloe was also good. The plantation scenes were associated with a drollery of speech arid action which served to relieve the tension of feelings produced by the emotional situations, and the realism of the drama was heightened by the effect with which a number of the Fisk Jubilee Singers' plaintive melodies were rendered. The performance will be repeated to-night and may with confidence be commended to the patronage of all sections of the public, • ■•'■-'• - -
