Tony Pastor in Trouble.

Tony Pastor, of New York, who IS
now with his inimitable variety combi-
nation, making a tour of the principal
cities of the Union is recognized as the
leading character vocalist and variety
performer of the United States. He
owns and runs first class theatre on
Broadway, New York City, and has
gathered about him the best troupe of
variety artists that could be obtained.
The company has just completed Il
brilliant engagement at the Walnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, and after
the present tour they will reappear in
Tony Pastors own theatre in New York
City. Mr.. Pastor is the originator of
his peculiar school of character singing,
and has made himself immensely pop
ular, having realized by his talents a
large fortune.
Pastor recently at the Bingham house,
in Philadelphia, and fCund him as
genial III private as he is amusing be-
fore the public. During our conversation
| inquired as to his physical health,
and he replied that, notwithstanding
the strain upon him in the discharge CT
his profe ssional duties it was excellent.
He had occasionally severe pains, either
the result of rheumatic attacks or colds,
but any complaints of that character
never troubled HIM long, as he had
found out a remedy for all such an
moving affections. / asked him what
the remedy was, and he replied, ''St
Jacobs Oil" | then learned from Mr..
II Al. L. 4 al
German Remedy an excellent prepare
ton for the cure or relief of rheuma-
tism, and that it was about the only
thing used among professional people
for that distressing complaint. He
took bottles of it with him whenever he
went travelling, and would not be with
out it, and knew that it was very pop
ular with number Of members of his
own company. A conversation held
subsequently with various members of
the organization revealed the fact that
st. Jacobs Oil had been performing most
invaluable service for them in the way
Of curing them of rheumatism Near
ly every artist in the troupe used it,
and was enthusiastic in its praise, and
the writer was really forced to the con-
clusion that Tony Pastor was certainly
in luck in having so valuable an article
known and employed by his inimitably
good company of performers, for 1t
enabled every one to be always in his
place, thus insuring comfort to the
management and genuine satisfaction
to the public Tony Pastor would GER
tainly be in trouble without st. Jacobs
Oil. At least, other managers whose
artists have been temporarily unsup-
piled, have noticed the difference be-
tween st. Jacobs Oil in stock and St.
Jacobs Oil out of stock-among the
members Of their companies.-N. Y.

Ben. Butler Braces Up.

HE WILL WIGGLE GUITEAU THROUGH.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-Several years
since Gen. B. +. Butler defended a po-
liceman here named O'Brien, who was
charged with the murder of a man
named Cunningham, at a picnic at
Green Springs Pavilion, near George
town. O'Brien was convicted and sem
fenced to be executed, but President
Grant committed his sentence 10 i'm
prisonment for life. During the argu-
ment of the question for q new trial,
which was refused, Gen. Butler said he
did not intend that his client (O'Brien)
should be hung unless he was hanged
legally, and to do it the prisoner
should be hung i. chains. He claimed
that the Maryland law, which is in force
here in regard to hangings, came from
the old English law, and that it was
never changed in regard to the use of
chains, though custom had grown up
which allowed the use of a rope for ex-
ecution. The Communication of the SEN
tence postponed the question for the
time. 1t is understood that one of the
reasons for Gen. Buffers visit to this
city at this time, is to call attention to
the law in regard to executions, and to
suggest to Mr.. Scoville that he insist it
be carried out in Guiteau's case to the
letter. 1t is understood that Gen.
Butler still maintains that an execu-
ton under the laws in this district is
not legal unless chains are used.

She was small clipper armed with
only seven guns and ninety men, and
was attacked IN the neutral port of
Fayal, one of the Azores Islands, In
September, 1914, by the boats of a
large British squadron, with a total
force of 135 guns and over two thou
sand men. The British lost over three
hundred of their brayest and best,
while the Americans lost but two men
killed and seven wounded. The squad
ron composed a part of the fleet con-
centrating at Jamaica for the conquest
of Louisiana, and the battle with the
Armstrong caused delay of some ten
or fifteen days, which enabled General
Jackson to reach New Orleans just
four days before the feet and troop
ships and thus win the victory.
THE REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE
sets forth at length all the facts of this
interesting case. which reads more ike
a romance than a reality. 1t Is a
document of marked ability, and was
drawn up by the Hon. William W.
Rice, of Massachusetts,, one of cur
ablest jurists and statesmen. As this
case has now been pending before the
government and congress for the last
sixty-seven years, and has cost the gov
eminent alone In printing the dscu-
ments, etc., over five times the amount
claimed, it is to be hoped for economy's
sake that this bill will finally pass.

The Treasury.
LOOKING FOR A SUCCESSOR TO UPTON.

LOOKING FOR A SUCCESSOR TO UPTON.
WASHINGTON, Feb. IA conference
between the president and secretary of
the treasury was held, it is re-
ported, during the past week in
relation to the succession to Upton.
Some difference as to the person arose,
the president, however, pursuing his
avowed policy of leaving the choice OF
such officers to the head of the depart
ment. He recently remarked that
when he could no longer rely upon the
judgement of secretary in such mat
tiers it would be necessary to have Il
new secretary. No agreement was re-
ported as to the nominee for Upton's
seat. The president is understood to
have suggested the name of an ex-sen-
ator. Mr.. Folger replied that he did
not know him, and presented the name
Of republican lawyer of whom Mr..
Arthur remarked that he was not known
well enough to carry the representative
weight such an office required. 1t is
asserted that the secretary would real
ly prefer to appoint former law part
ner of his own, who, however, happens
to be a democrat. 1t is also rumored
that the name suggested by the secre-
tary was that of the present appoint
ment clerk.
Ex Gov Gear of Iowa was offered the
position of the assistant secretary of
the treasury, but declined. He is a
wholesale grocer of Burlington, and
has a trade worth more than any office
will pay him.

portion of juries ought not to be over

thirty thousand men of all colors In

you do not change the system of pick

Mt. Corkhill, "juries were selected from
list of five hundred names and put
into q box by i've commissioners of
juries, who were appointed. These
commissioners of juries were response
bic for putting In any improper names.
Mr.. Douglass having agreed with my
views, | went to George Riggs, the late
banker here, and asked him as 8 per-
sonal favor to serve as commissioner OF
Jurles. He was sickly, and did not
want to do 1t; but ne yielded as clti-
zen to my argument that it was neces-
sary for the respect of the city of Wash
mgton. He and several ether good
men, adopting his leadership, made the
selection of five hundred names from
the directory of Washington, from
which we drew this jury. They took
one person from every business house
in Washington. No unknown OF sus-
picious names we're put in. Mr.. Riggs
died soon after completing this import
ant work, but the jury which convicted
Guiteau is the product of that labor. "
'What do you say of the jury, Mr..
Corkhill?'
sit was model jury. BY respecta-
bic process you can get better jury in
Washington than out of any of the cit
ies-better than New York, Cincinnati
or Chicago. The resident element here
is of better traditions, and many of
them are sons OF descendants of old
government clerks, auditors in the de-
partments, Aaval officers, district law
yers, or skilled laborers in the navy
yard. They understand something of
the government and of law from their
surroundings. This jury, without any
suggestion, knew how to stand when
they were polled, and when they gave
their verdict. 1t was something re-
markable to see the military discipline
they had"

AN INTERESTING TALK WITH COLONEL
CoRKHILL ON THE GUITEAU TRIAL.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Cath" has
been interviewing people at the court
house.
.'Mr. Corkhill, how came the counsel
from the outside 10 be brought into the
case?"
at happened in this way" said Mr..
Corkhill. "The Attorney General, Mr..
Macy eagh, seemed to behave as if he
wanted to reflect upon me in this trial,
and l therefore went to President
Arthur, who asked me if l wanted as
sistant counsel. | had told Mr.. Mac
Veagh that if Mr.. Scoville only appear
ed for the prisoner would want no as
sistance; but heard that Colonel Cook,
of this District, an expert criminal law
yer at hanging juries, had been retained.
| therefore desired to recommend to
the President, Mr.. Totten, son-iu-law
of Unconstitutional Howe. He had
resided here long while, knows the
District laws, and has the confidence of
the people. 1t appears that the day
after | spoke to the President he
brought up the prosecution of Guiteau
in the Cabinet meeting. and asked Mr..
MacVeagh if he had arranged for the
trial as became the Government. Mr..
MacVeagh replied that he had not par
ticularly done so. The President then
expressed himself with Indignation, as
understand, and said he wanted the
case tried properly. He asked the
Acknowledgement if he was going to try
it. MaeVeagh replied that it was
against any precedent in the Attorney
| Generals Office for the Attorney Gen.
erai 10 appear in local criminal trial,
and that he regarded it as beneath his
dignity as a Cabinet Minister. The
President then said it must be tried
effectively, and he named John K.
| Porter, of New York, as one of the
lawyers. Blaine, the Secretary of State,
stood up and suggested that there would
be required lawyer acquainted with
the laws and public temperament of
| the District of Columbia, and gave the
name of Walter D. Davidge. This is
the way the two lawyers came into this
case.
How was the jury arranged ?"
chat was even a more important
question than getting counsel-to find
a conscientious and intelligent jury.
Under Colonel Cook, to whom l have
referred. the juries in this district have
been manipulated through the mar
shals Office for several years, and have
become a standing disgrace. Cook did
net labor to aequit anybody, but to
hang the jury. That was the basis of
/ his practice and reputation here.
Mr.. Sayles ]. Bowen, local lawyer of
the negroes, attained very great :ntiu-
ence in selecting these juries. CoLse-
quently we had juries Overwhelmingly
negro-sometimes eight, nine, or ter
men In the box blacks. They were ig-
norant, open to purchase, and the peo-
pie were getting disguised with the adj
ministration of Justice When l was
appointed district attorney, went to
the marshal, Mr.. Fred. Douglas, and
said to him that ne must stop this bust

Prescribing for a Child by Telephone

A short time ago physician at North
Adams, Mass, was called by telephone
about l O'Clock at night. The call
came from Briggsyille, about two miles
away. A child there was suffering
with the Group, and in critical con-
dition. The night was dark and
stormy, and the doctor found nothing
pleasant in the contemplation Of the trip
which he was asked to make. When
preparing TO go out in the darkness and
rain his mind conceived a bright
thought, which was Immediately follow
ed by action. He called the Briggsvilie
house in which the little sufferer lay,
and requested the parents TO bring it to
the telephone transmitter. This was
done. The child coughed its croupy
cough, and the doctor listened intently
to every sound which came from his
patient He prescribed remedy and
one of the members of the family pre-
pared and administered il. The relief
was immediate and the recovery
rapid. The doctor waited at the tele-
phone until he heard OF the favorable
results Of his prescription, and then
sought again the repose of his couch,
pronouncing blessings on the inventor
Of the telephone.
