Why WOMEN ARE CoLD.-A wo-
an complains to the Cincinnati En-.
quirer that her sex is compelled by
fashion to suffer dreadfully from
cold. "Even when clad for the
street." she says, ca woman is no.
where near so thickly covered as q
man, unless it be about her chest
and arms by a fur garment. Her
head is usually not protected at all,
and in the other direction her warm
clothing stops at her hips, for below
that her skirts are only a shield
against the wind, without keeping
out much cold. There is a general
feminine aversion to flannel mex:
the skin, arising from the prickli.
ness OF the one and the delicacy of
the other. Below the knees the
only covering is stocking. So it
is that the girl in sealskin sacque,
looking SO mighty comfortable, real

endorsement, perhaps, as be was GOOD
friend, but did not. 1.-The 10 ask such 2
favor. Jess. had said, III can get it,"
and took the note. returning it with the
forged endorsement. Freese swore ne
did not know'it was forgery-swore,
that. although he had been page OF
Judge Boya's court, and that although
the Imitation was q bad one, he did not
know bu. il Was perfectly good. Myers
had after wards told him--but this was
ruled out.
The cross-examinstion was long and
severe. In regard to his fight to Col
umbus, Freese said he had been intend
ing 10 90 for some time, as had Myers
also. and the day upon which they went
was the one selected. As TO why he had
not notified Judge Boyd OF his intention,
he said he cent word to the Judge In the
afternoon on which he left. Mr.. 10. dan
pressed him upon his Lille and history,
habits and companions, and finally he
was permitted % retire. He was the
only witness for himself, and when he
finished, the court took recess until
o'clock.
Upon Resembling, argument was
heard upon the admission in evidence,
Of the signature Of Judge BGyi, the de-
tense claiming that the difference be-
tween the genuine and the forgery was
so marked that it would not deceive
person OF ordinary intelligence and was
therefore in palliation OF tie ofense.
The motion Was overruled, and after the
introduction OF testimony to throw dis
credit upon Freese's verscity, the argu-
ments to the jury were begun.
Mr.. Jordan's remarks were very brief,
being not half so long as those OF Mr..
Ferguson, who followed. Then came
Mr.. Crscraft, in a very imprisoned
speech, at the close OF which, the Court
adjourned until $50 o'clock this morn

tense and Mr.. Jordan for the State.

Maggie Mitchell at tho Opera House
General Amusement Notes.
Lent is over, and the attraction at The
Opera House, last evening, drew out one
OF the largest and most fashionable au-
diences Of the season. The house was
fairly jammed from pit to dome, and
still all were not seated. The bill was
"Fanchon," with the bewitching little
Maggie Mitchell in the title role. Maggie
still remains q gIeat favorite here, and
was last night received with the usual
manifestations of pleasure. She has not
changed particle since her last appear.
ance, and is the same airy, gay, laugh
lug sprite as OF old, still showing those
wonderful chameleon changes from gay
to sad, from tears to laughter. Her ere.
alton of "Fanchon" is a study. Such
she has herself made it, and her concep-
ton shows its strength in the truthful
presentation. 1t is clear and clean up
to nature, whether as the eerie Cricket
when a child, or the tender, thoughtful
and self-sacrilicing girl just budding
into womanhood.
The strongest scene is in the second
act, where, at the festival OF st. Ave-
doche, claims the redemption OF "I.an-
try's" pledge. Her fearless challenge
of "Madeion" and her companions, her
brave front to the towards who would
see the "devirs claw" then the sudden
change to the devout and pious yotary
when the prayer to the Virgin was read,
and then the elfish wiidness which
prompts her to tease "Lantry" and the
generous gratitude which induces her
to release him, are all fine and natural
pieces OF characterization, with which
the entire play is on par.
Mr.. Russell's conception OF "Lantry
Barbeaud" is a good one and faithfully
carried ont, while his whimsical brother
"Didier." was well portrayed by Julian
Mitchell. Mr.. McClannan and Miss
Clifton, as "Father" aud "Mother Bar
beaud," offered admirable support.
Miss Lettie Allen made a handsome and
quite satisfactory "Madelon," the
"stuckup" village beauty, and the re.
mainder Of the support was above the
average.
An enjoyable evening was spent by
all who attended and none could regret
it. The applause was frequent and
hearty, and twice the winsome "Fsn.
chon" was called before the curtain.
Tonight the bill will be "Lorle; CT the
Artists Dream" a beautiful and attrac-
tive play, in which Maggie Mitchell APP

MORE WILSON NUss.

A Card from Mrs. w. Containing Some
Hard Thinss-Bsfore Squire Pnillips
Mrs. Sarah Wilson, wife OF George S.
Wilson, and who figured rather promi.
nently in yesterday mornings paper, as
one OF the actors in the Wilson-Rose
trouble, was released from custody late
Sunday evening by one OF the city Of
ficials. Yesterday she was interviewing
the local editors on their reports. She
denied having said that she had cohabit-
ed with other men during the past year,
and she also left card at this Office that
was q decidedly breezy article. She
went for several parties numerically
and without gloves on.
First, there were George S. Wilson,
or "Weazzy," as she dubbed him, whom
she says has bounded and threatened
her and her children, making life bur.
den and disturbing their rest at night.
She further continues that on Sunday,
the time the trouble occurred. he forci
bly, entered her house aud when she re.
turned from her mothers that he kicked
and abused her outrageously. Next
she pays her respects to an ex-police.
man, whose name is q SYNONYM" OF all
bad things.
Then Captain Bennett and Officer
Junkins came in for their share. She
SAYS that instead of arresting the intru-
der and aggressor, they toek her, but for
what she is profoundly ignorant" She
SPEAKS OF Jack Arthur hotel as "a
loathsome den arranged for criminals
and felons of all kinds" She rounds of
that paragraph by saying that death
would have been preferable"
Then George Wilson gets 1t again in
the heaviest kind OF style, and she says
that his conduct toward Der and her
children has been 50 abusive that the
children are under medical treatment;
also, that he has talked about her 10 su, h
an extent that cit makes her brain dix,y
when she thinks OF it,"
Then she INDUCES in praise in the
last section OF her card by thanking the
party who took her IRON the lookup, and
also takes occasion to speak uncompli.
mentaiy OF the police. In closing she
says: my trial was called for "a. NJ;
my offense was nothing; heard no
charge; saw none OF my guilty accusers;
hope never may; l left
the Court pleased with its
dignity and wiser to defend myself and
children hereafter against villifers and
all aggressors."
In connection with the above there is
some court business. Geo. 5. Wilson
appeared before Squire Philips yester-
day and swore out a warrant, first
against Sarah Wilson for committing
adultery with AL. Rose and then one
against AL. Rose for fornication with
Sarah Wilson.
Mrs. Wilson then appeared and swore
out two against her husband before the
same Justice; first for carrying cor
cealed weapons, and second for brea, h
of the peace. All OF the cases will be
heard as soon as possible.
