Miss Allen was to have taken her show direct from Punxsutawncy for an ir.detinite run in one of Chicago's I foremost theaters. I The arvnounermvnt of the Ca:ic?I- Irtinn came as a great disappointment to Manager Maginnis, whose advance sale of seats indicated-that Miss Allen would have broken all box office records for the Jefferson Theater.

Way. manager of the Avenue Theater, DuBois. this forenoon also received notice to cancel, and it is presumed that ti.e managers of the theaters at Bradford and Elmira, where the show was to have he- n produced this week, have received telegrams of a similar import. "Please cancel Viola Allen. Must close and get play ready for Chicago. Will arrange later date. Sorry. "LIEBIiKH & COMPANY "Xew York, Feb. 9." Translated into "United States language," the telegram means that "The White Sister", which opened at Bit ghamt< n, N. Y.. last night, was not up to expectations, and thai either Miss Allen or Liebler Co., or both, were not satisfied with the production, and will take it back to New York City for the time being. J.

"And now, January 21. 1909, the rule for Judgment is made absolute, and judgment is directed to be entered n favor of the plantiff and against the defendant for the amount of the plaintiffs claim, which is to be liquidated sec. reg." "After a careful consideration of this affidavit of defense. I am unable to find in it anything challenging the averments contained in the plaintiff's statement of claim in such way ai d manner as to rut the plaintiff on proof the same before a jury. Ac( Opting "as true everything alleged in the affidavit, the same does not constitute a defense or bar to the plaintiff's right to recover the claim sued for. The defendant does nut even so much as Intimate in Ills affidavit of defense that the work was not properly done, or that the amount charge! It is not reasonable and correct, and the affidavit is utterly void of any statement of facts tending to relieve him from payment for the same. "There is nothing in the eighth paragraph of the defense germane to the claim sued on. r.ials, without averment of any fact* to give them effect, do not consitute a defense. Judge John W. Reed has handed down an opinion in the case of the Borough of Punxsutawncy vs. Edward A. Carmalt, sustaining ihe effort of the Borough to collect the cost** of curbing in frnt of Mi*. Carmalt's property on North Main Street, 'West End. Previous to rebuilding North Main Street, the Borough, through the proper authorities, notified property owners of the proposed improvement, ancl gave them an opportunity to do their own curbing, failing in which ii would be dong> by the borough a; the expense of the property owner. Mr. Carmalt was one of the property owners who did not make provision for the Improvement, and the borough went ahead. Upon the completion o" the work Mr. Carmalt was rendered a bill for $875 for 1,200 feet of curbing, but he resisted payment, and the borough, through Solicitor Gillespie, brought suit. Mr. Carmalt Hied a defense which was dismissed "for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense." In his defense Mr. farm all alleged that the Borough of Clayville had never accepted articles of incorporation; that the property improved was outside of the village proper, and could not be made to bear expenses dissimilar to that assessed on land adjoining it in Young Township, to which Judge Reed replies that the %#fJWlll.,-*arHJt|r under Ph.' Act of 1851, had a clear right to do what it dH To the defendant's claim that he had no knowledge of the passage of ar ordinance to improve North Main Street, and his demands for proof, Judge Heed states that such claim dees not controvert successfully the existence, nor tend to prove the nonexistence of such an ordinance, and says Mr. Carmalt's "denial of its existence is a deduction from his lack of knowledge, and no issue of fact is raise.I by these averments in the affidavits of defense." To the defendant's contention thai he "had no specific information as to the legality of the consolidation of the Borough of Clayville and the Borough of Punxsutawney, as alleged in the plaintiff's statement of claims, or the plaintiff's allegation that it had m rved notices on the defendant to curb the street in front of his property, the opinion says: "It is to be observed that the (de(Yr.dnnt's) affidavit is exceedingly evasive in the particulars mentioned, and that it does not deny the allegations contained in the plaintiff's statement of claim thereto. For these reasons this paragraph of the defense is futile for the purpose of staying judgment." In his motion for a stay of judgment. Mr. Carmalt sets up the claim that the curbing is at the edge of a twenty-foot roadway, and cannot be ufced for staying a sidewalk, to which answer is made "that the affidavit clearly shows that the curbing was put in for the purpose oT defining the boundary between the cartway and the foot walk, and this, in part, at least, is the usual and ordinary pur\ pose subserved by a curb." \ Alluding to the averment in paragraph 5 that the improvement claimdid for was not made by the borough, but*'by the State Highway Department, Judge Reed says that "if it were sufficiently averred, which it is not, it wotirJd be unavailing, because of a , failure to state any expectation of being able to prove the same on the trial of the cause." Continuing, the opinion says: "The affiant alleges, in paragraph b\ that the improvement claimed for was not made at the instance or on the request of a majority of the property owners a'buttinsj on the entire street. It is not contended or averred by he plaintiff that it was. The borough council of their own mo- tion initiated the proceeding and passed the ordlnanc under which the Improvement was made. This they had authority to do under the general bor- ough Act of 1851. "The affiant, In paragraph 8, of his defense, makes flat denials of any indebtedness to the plaintiff.
