# The Miracle Man

Half an hour later, the train, that stopped only on signal to discharge eastbound passengers from Portland, drew up at Needley—and Hiram Higgins, on the platform, stared at a scene never before witnessed in the history of the town. It was not one passenger, or two, or three, that alighted—they streamed in a bewildering fashion from every vestibule of every car. It is true that the majority got back into the train later, but that did not lessen the effect any on Mr. Higgins. Mr. Higgins' jaw dropped, and he grabbed at his chin whiskers for support. "Merciful daylights!" he breathed heavily. "Now what in the land's sakes be it all about?"

# The New International Encyclopædia/Dumas, Alexandre (fils)

Edition of 1905. See also Alexandre Dumas fils on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​DUMAS, Alexandre, called Dumas Fils (1824-95). One of the most distinguished of modern French dramatists. He was born in Paris, July 27, 1824, the son of the great romantic novelist of like name, but of a genius strangely contrasted. In him the father's rich but riotous fancy yielded to close observation and realistic earnestness that made of him an unbending and almost a Puritan moralist. Like his grandfather, an illegitimate child, he has drawn, in L'affaire Clémenceau (novel, 1867; dramatized, 1887), a moving picture of the torments caused by his origin during his school life. Later he became the companion and associate of his bohemian father, and after a brief carnival found himself, in 1848, with 50,000 francs of debt and a pen for his assets. It proved more than sufficient. He left old associations forever behind, sold his experience to the world in a novel, La dame aux camélias (1848; dramatized, 1852), and became a serious, hard-working author and soon an independent and wealthy one. His other early novels and a first dramatic essay (1845) are romantic commonplace, and have no significance. But the dramatization of La dame aux camélias marks a date (February 2. 1852) in the history of the French stage, and inaugurates the realistic study of social problems that has changed the face of the modern drama. Dumas joined Balzac's insight into character to Scribe's technical aptitude, and to an instinct that truth, to be dramatically effective, must be logical and conventional in its exhibition. In so far Dumas is not a 'naturalist,' though he is eminently a dramatic realist. His other plays, in their order, are: Diane de Lys (1853); Le demi-monde (1855); La question d'argent (1857); Le fils naturel (1858); Un père prodigue (1859); L’ami des femmes (1864); Les idées de madame Aubray (1867); Une visite de noces (1871); La princesse Georges (1871); La femme de Claude ​

The Legal-Tender Cases
Juilliard, a citizen of New York, brought an action against Greenman, a citizen of Connecticut, in the circuit court of the United States for the Southern district of New York, alleging that the plaintiff sold and delivered to the defendant, at his special instance and request, 100 bales of cotton, of the value and for the agreed price of $5,122.90; and that the defendant agreed to pay that sum in cash on the delivery of the cotton, and had not paid the same or any part thereof, except that he had paid the sum of $22.90 on account, and was now justly indebted to the plaintiff therefor in the sum of $5,100; and demanding judgment for this sum, with interest and costs. The defendant in his answer admitted the citizenship of the parties, the purchase and delivery of the cotton, and the agreement to pay therefor, as alleged; and averred that, after the delivery of the cotton, he offered and tendered to the plaintiff, in full payment, $22.50 in gold coin of the United States, 40 cents in silver coin of the United States, and two United States notes, one of the denomination of $5,000 and the other of the denomination of $100, of the description known as United States legal tender notes, purporting by recital thereon to be legal tender, at their respective face values, for all debts, public and private, except duties on imports and interest on the public debt, and which, after having been presented for payment, and redeemed and paid in gold coin, since January 1, 1879, at the United States subtreasury in New York, had been reissued and kept in circulation under and in pursuance of the act of congress of May 31, 1878, c. 146; that at the time of offering and tendering these notes, and coin to the plaintiff the sum sum of $5,122.90 was the entire amount due and owing in payment for the cotton, but the plaintiff declined to receive the notes in payment of $5,100 thereof; and that the defendant had ever since remained, and still was, ready and willing to pay to the plaintiff the sum of $5,100 in these notes, and brought these notes into court, ready to be paid to the plaintiff, if he would accept them.
The plaintiff demurred to the answer, upon the grounds that the defense, consisting of new matter, was insufficient in law upon its face, and that the facts stated in the answer did not constitute any defense to the cause of action alleged.
The circuit court overruled the demurrer and gave judgment for the defendant, and the plaintiff sued out this writ of error.
Wm. Allen Butler and Geo. F. Edmunds, for plaintiff in error.

# The New International Encyclopædia/Crotalaria

Edition of 1905. See also Crotalaria on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
CROT'ALA'RIA (Neo-Lat. nom. pl., from Gk. κρόταλον, krotalon, rattle). A genus of plants of the natural order Leguminosæ, deriving its name from the inflated pods in which the seeds rattle when ripe. The species are numerous; annual, perennial, and shrubby plants, natives of the temperate and tropical parts of the world. Many of them have long, straight, slender stems and branches, and some of these yield valuable fibre, particularly the Sunn (q.v.), or Sunn hemp of India, Crotalaria juncea, an annual species, the fibre of which is now an important article of commerce. Jubbulpore hemp, also an important fibre, and regarded as stronger than Sunn, is the produce of Crotalaria tenuifolia, usually considered a variety of Crotalaria juncea, a perennial species about nine feet high, a native of the south of India, which, when growing in abundant space, throws out many branches; but when sown thick, grows with little branching. Crotalaria burhia, which naturally grows in very arid places, is also cultivated in Sinde for its fibre. There are a dozen species native of the United States, one of which, Crotalaria sagittalis, and perhaps others, are reputed to be injurious to horses, causing what is termed ‘crotalism,’ a disease something like loco (q.v.).
# The New International Encyclopædia/Crédit Foncier

Edition of 1905. See also Crédit Foncier de France on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
CRÉDIT FONCIER, krắ'dḗ' fôN'syắ' (Fr., landed credit). The French name for a method of borrowing money on the security of landed property which is widely practiced in France and other Continental countries. The borrower takes a loan, in return for which he contracts to make certain annual payments, which are so adjusted as to make provision for the interest and for the gradual extinction of the principal, which is fully paid when the term of the contract has been concluded. These contracts are generally made with companies organized for the purpose of loaning their capital in this fashion. Another variety of this form of credit is found in the Pfandbrief institute of the large landowners of Germany. Loans are made in the same way, but in return for the debt the borrower receives the securities of the association. He does not actually contract a debt until he sells these securities, which he may do in whole or in part.
# The New International Encyclopædia/Czartoryski

Edition of 1905. See also Adam Jerzy Czartoryski on Wikipedia; and the disclaimer.
​CZARTORYSKI, chär’-tô-rĭs’kḗ, Adam Jerzy (George). Prince (1770-1861). A Polish patriot, born at Warsaw, January 14, 1770. He was the son of Prince Adam Casimir Czartoryski, the head of an ancient Polish house. After studying in Edinburgh and London, he returned to his native country and took part against Russia in the war following the second partition of Poland, in 1793. On the defeat of the Poles, Czartoryski was taken to Saint Petersburg as a hostage, and here he exhibited so much ability and prudence as to gain the friendship of the Grand Duke Alexander, and the confidence of Emperor Paul, who made him ambassador to Sardinia. When Alexander ascended the throne (1801) he appointed Czartoryski assistant to the Minister of Foreign Affairs; and he took an active part in official life until after the peace of Tilsit (1807). As curator of the University of Vilna he exerted all his influence to keep alive a spirit of nationality among the Poles, and when some of the students were arrested on a charge of sedition and sent to Siberia, Czartoryski resigned his office. His successor reported to the Emperor that the amalgamation of Russia and Lithuania had been delayed a century by Czartoryski's activity as head of the university. When the Revolution of 1830 broke out, he threw in his lot with his countrymen. He was elected president of the provisional Government, and in this capacity summoned a national diet, which met in January, 1831, and declared the Polish throne vacant, and elected Czartoryski head of the National Government. He immediately devoted half of his large estates to the public service, and adopted energetic measures to meet the Russian invasion. The Poles were soon crushed by superior numbers, and Czartoryski—specially excluded from the general amnesty, and his estates in Poland confiscated—escaped to Paris, where he afterwards resided, the friend of his poor expatriated countrymen, and the centre of their hopes of a revived nationality. In 1848 he liberated all the serfs on his Galician estates, and during the Crimean War he ineffectually endeavored to induce the Allies to identify the cause of Poland with that of Turkey. He refused an amnesty offered to him by Alexander II., and died in Paris, July 16, 1861. Consult his Mémoires et correspondance avec l’empereur Alexandre I$^{er}$ (Paris, 1887; English translation, Sielgerd (London, 1888); Morfill, Story of Poland, in "Stories of the Nations" series (London, 1893).
