-j- Sheriff Scott Monoriuff — an app-Iicat.ion to in-
ij terdiot a- s»aio of roundabouts, witli boiler
j| and engine,* oaravans, shooting ramgets &o.,
advertised for twelve o’clock to-day. was pre-
j aentod, at the instance of Mrs Hobday, hobby .
.1 horse and swiimg-boat proprietrix, presently a
j carrying on busineeis in Moncur-etreet, (»ias .
% gow.
: The defender, George Wallace, carriage ;
- hirer an doart.wright, Adrosaan, * contended:
that M Hobday had sent , him, while a-t Ar-
drossaj), a van to repair, and that Hobday
jihad not paid him.
I Mr R. Marshall, writer, who appeared for
•Mrs Hobdtay, stated that the was the daugh :
j ter of a show-man, and' f hat her first husband:
i had also been, a diowman. He submitted ;
| numerous documents sAiowing ^>at Mrs Hob
day had carried on (h*> business for her own
| behoof, and had never-Tccoived * tiny assist
ance froun her second husband. wlio<*e debt
formed the basis of the poinding. He also
pointed out a want of specification and a I
* leged irregularities in the poinding. “A w ag-
' ] igon and its oon touts,'' he submitted, was too
I ^enera .1 a tern.. ,
| The Sheriff humourously inquired if Mrs
MIobday would form part of t hcWxi.ntenta. t
i Mr .Sla.rsthall replied that c-he y^ould ’form a
| very substantial part.
Mr Littlejohn, for defender, *. maintained ;
| that Mrs Hobday’s effects tvad become im- '
mixed w ith those of her husband.
The- Sheriff held that primia. facie evidence
had 'been submitted instructing’ the pursuer’s
title, and granted interim interdict.
NO EVIDENCE IN SUPPORT OF
PHRENOLOGY.
Mr Charles Marriott, author of “The
Column,” writes in the “Daily Graphic :
During certain years I took photographs of
several thousand certified lunatics. Except
in the cases of a few idiots and imbeciles?—
who illustra ted the probability ’that the fro'n-
t.al region is concerned with the more purely
intellectual processes— I observed nothing
whatever in support, of phrenology, but a
good deal to the reverse. There are, it, is
true, striking differences between tho looks
of the sane and the insane, but they are made
■ up of infinitesimal details of facial expres-
sion. attitude, gesture, &c., and. I suspect, arc
to a certain degree the result not of char-
acter but of environment.
j Negotiations for the rc-opening of the
• London Lyceum Theatre are said to be pro-
■ dressing satisfactorily between the proprietors p
j and the Twentieth Century Drama Syndicate,
[whose directors are Messrs H. and A. Srnit.n,
1 E Da^nall, Norman J. Norman, \v. Hollis,
and Arthur Shirley. Should the Syndicate
be accepted as tenants the historic house m
Well in gton -st r eet will be transformed into a
“ People's Theatre.
