THE BEN GREET PLAYERS. At Academy of Music To-night in "The Merchant of Venice." Seats are new on sale for tlhe pro duction of ",The"Meirchant of Venice" by the Ben Greet Company of Play ers at the Academy of Music to-night under the auspices of the North Caro lina Sorosis for tile benefit of the public library. The object of the Ben Greet players in giving the plays of Shakespeare in what for lack of a better t$rm i? called the Elizabethan manner is not to demonstrate how the works were given during the poet's lifetime, but to act them, as far as possible, as they were written, as Shakespeare in tended thorn to be acted, and to give the complete text of the plays. Some 500 performances of Shakes peare's plays have been given in this manner in America by Hhe company, and the pronounced success of the tour of the past season indicated a greatly increased desire on the part of the public as well as students, to see Shakespeare's plays for their own sake. In addition to the continued in terest evinced by the leading colleges co-operation was recived from the New York City Boaid of Education, the Boston School Committee, the Phil adelDhia Teachers' Association, and Legislature established the Criminal Court of New Hanover county andj Judge Meares was called to preside; over that important branch of the! courts of the State. He held that po-1 sition until the adoption of the new j constitution in 1868- The new consti-1 tution did not provide for a criminal j court and his office was terminated, j He again turned to the practice of j law and continued his career unt 1 V again called to the bench by the re-es- j tablishment of the criminal court, J serving with - conspicuous ability for j tJlgUL y Ml -3. ". j-uv. a i created the criminal circuit, composed ygj of Mecklenburg and New Hanover , counties, and he presided over that j for twelve years. In 1895 the court was abolished but the courts held that the act was void and Judge Meares re i tained the position until the following year when the Fusionists and Repub-1 aicans made the district vacant. Judge Mears served in the mean-j time by the appointment of Governor! Carr, of North Carolina, Judge Meares resigned the position before the , act went into effect and retired to private life with a consciousness duty well performed for the period of about 25 years. His record as a judge was unblemished and he served the district and State with conspicuous dignity and ability. He was married in 1850 to Miss Ann Elizabeth, the daughter of Dr. Thomas H. Write, of Wilmington, N. Thomas H. Wright, of Wilmington, N. Wright, who was a native of Wilming-. ton. Dr. Wright, her father, was one of the leading financiers of the State, president of the old Bank of Cape Fear and a citizen of distinguished po sition, and his daughter, the wife of Judge Meares, was a lady of rare per sonal attractions, intelligence, rifine ment and gentle Christian character. Mrs- Meares died several years ago. The surviving children of this union are Mrs. Mary Allen Short, wife of Mr. H. B. Short, of Lake Waccanaw, N. C; Mrs. Ann Eliza Baltzer, wife of Mr. E. V.

(Special Star Telegram.) Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 21. The Su preme Court reverses the lower court in State vs. Lewis from Union county, so that it will be necessary now for Zeke Lewis to stand trial in Union county for. participation in the lynch ing ;f J. V. Johnson of Wadesboro on May 2S last. The court holds that, the force and effect of the statute against Lynching Laws of 1893 is not impair ed by being split up in sections under appropriate headings in the revisal, and that authority to try the case in Union is ample and it was an error to quash the bill at the former trial in either county.
