MCDONALD
Taken For Peace Justice-Hts Coming
speech TO the Democratic Editors.

TAX en- For q Peace Justice-Hts Coming
speech 10 the Democratic Editors.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND, December pa day
or two ago ex-senator Mcdonald happened
into the United States Court, and Judge
Woods invited him to seat on the bench.
Two strangers were in the room and one
said to the other, "Who's that man along
side Judge Woods" "Oh," said the other,
That's some justice of the peace from
Northern Indiana, whom Woods knew In
his younger days, and whom he is making
feel good by showing some sttention."
This was too good to be taken standing
in silence" and a man who overheard the
remark, put in with:
That's Joe Mcdonald, who will be the
Democratic candidate for President
"Joe McDonsld?" said the fellow, with
startled look.
"Yes, sir; Joe Mcdonald"
"Whew!" said the stranger, as his eyes
stuck, and he gasped for breaths> We'll,
want a square look at him, he finally
murmured, and he tiptoed around with his
lower jaw hanging down until he got
good position, and then "he drank to him
with his eyes as il were.
Apropos of Mcdonald, the meeting OF
the Democratic State editors set for Jan IA
~ s is a private atfIir. The expenses will
be borne by Mr.. Mcdonald and the State
otllCers-at lesst so good information has It.
1t will be in the natlre of hrotherly talk
over the situation, and Mr.. Mcdonald will
make his speech, which, it is expected will
attract wide attention. There will be over
one hundred guests from the State. and
the banquet is limited to one hundred and
fifty plates.

CmCADo, December 23.-The presence OF
Ex-senator Barnum, Of Connecticut, chair
|msn of the Democratic National Commit
ZEE, in Chicago, has excited great deal OF
|.ossip in political circles as to the proba-
|Dility OF the next National Convention OF
hat party being held here. With his &C
|customed diplomacy Senator Barnum stu
|iiously refrains from any expressions that
would indicate his preferences, or the SEN
iment Of the committee in that regard.
The most successful interviewer only sue
|ceeded in eliciting from him the opinion
that Chicago was the most eligible point in
|he country for the convention. This has
been se,zed upon by the gossips as most
|IgninCant admission in view OF the TACT
that prominent members of the lro.
luOis club, which is the leading Demo
|c.s,c organization of the west, are
|mskirg determined effort to secure the
|cJnyention for this city, both by personal
|>Ul!Citaiion among their friends on the
|Committec and by the presentation OF ar
Gumsnts tending TO show that this Is the
most favorable point. 1t is generally un-
derstOOd that Chairman Barnum Is to
spend several days in Chicsgo, conferrinS
with leading Democratic politicians. SeY-
era Of the western members OF the coin
mittee who have been interviewed here Of
late, are Overwhelmingly in favor OF Cai-
csso, and it is thought that the programme
has already been cut and dried 10 hsve the
convention here as being the most central
and eligible point for all parts OF the coun'

A SWEET SINGER SUED
For Not Pay ing for the Rich Piumage
Furnished Her.

New YORK, December 23.-Mme. Emilia
La Blache, the famous contralto at the
Metropolitan Opera House, who recently
was brought into the courts regarding her
contract to sing under the management OF
Colonel Mspleson, was again in court yes.
terday on complaint of her dressmaker,
Nine. Emma Saule, who has bill against
her for 1925. The dispute came up in the
city court chambers before Judge McAdam
upon an order to show cause, obtained by
Madsme Saule, why the operate singer
should not be examined as to her ability to
pay the judgment, which was obtained
some eighteen months sgo.
In obedience to this order Nine. La
Blsche appeared in court yesterday and
was sworn by Judge McAdam. According
to Nine. Saule's statement, she made a
black satin dress and satin cloak for
Mime. La Blache in March, 1882, but has
never received any money for her trouble.
An attachment was then procured against
the property of Nine. La Blache, but she
suddenly left the city. That was about
year ago. When the contralto returned
here this season an attempt was made TO
enforce the attachment, but she declared
that she had no property, and thus she es-
capped the process Of the court. After fur.
ther consultation between the singer and
the lawyers she agreed to give an order
urOn the treasurer OF the Metropolitan
Opera House for the payment of $50 down
and SO each week until the full amount
is paid. This being satisfactory, the con
irslto immediately hurried from the court
room.

is REV. Mr.. VEDDER ILL?
He Fails 10 Appear for Trial on
Charge of Malpractice.


ALBANY, December 23.-When the case OF
Rev. Alfred F. yedder and DR.. James A.
Patterson, indicted for malpractice on Miss
Anna A. Walter, OF West Milton, in Au.
gust, was called yesterday, Alexander
Thompson, counsel for Vedder, apologized
to the Court for the absence OF
his client, who was i'll at his sis
ter's home in Schenectady. District
Attorney Herrick said he was suspicious
of this sudden illness, IS he had been in.
formed that just such a contingency would
arise in order TO get the case over the term.
Vedder had been about in the court r2om
on Monday and Tuesday as bright and
healthy as any man could desire, and show
ing no indication Of mental over work or
nervousness. His counsel had also stated
in court yesterday afternoon that he had
remained with Nedder until eleven
O'Clock the previous evening ar.
ranging with the latter to proceed
10 Saratoga county yesterday to serve
subppnas and secure the attendance OF
witnesses Those witnesses were suoPT'
naed and in attendance, and the inference
wss that Vedder had executed the task
assigned him. II so, how was it that he
could become so suddenly and alarmingly
i'll on the same day. Justice Osborn hoally
directed that one OF the District Attorney 8
officers should proceed to Schenectady and
employ q reputable physician to examine
and report rs to Vedder'S condition.

Of many thousands of dollars. They are
extremely filthy in their habits,

unsCrupulous in all thsir transactions.
Their intelligence is the lowest in the scale
of any class of people in this country To-.

lost by all classes in trying to elevate this

LOST HIS MONEY AND HIS LOVE.
The RaeE et Played upon Too Confid-
ing Chicago Man.

CHICAGO, December 23.-G. A. Lomar, q
wealthy young contractor and carpenter,
brought suit yesterday against Olive f. Lo-
gan, alias Mrs. Mary + Ball, for coo dam
ages for deception by which she lacerated
his affections and robbed his purse. Lomar
makes the startling allegation that three
years Ego he got acqusinted with the de-
fendant through a newspaper advertise
ment. She claimed to he unmarried and
speedily promised to becc me his wife, pre-
yailing upon him TO loan her frequent
sums of money, running from 800 down
TO Sl0 at time. Olive kept up this game
three years, putting off the date of the
wedding. when he became too urgent, with
some precious excuse, as that she was test
ing his devotion. He finally found out
that she was the wife of James II. Ball and
the happy mother OF a four.year old boy.
Mr.. LCmar, disgusted, has lost not only his
money but also his love for the fair Olive.
