PHILADELPHIA Pa, March 3f.--There
is an addition to the Langtry scandal
which win probably be greater surprise
to society than the indiscretions of the
Jersey Lily, which have been The food for
so much gossip for so long time This
time. however, the central figure is not
Mrs. Langtry, but Miss Agnes Langtry,
the cllaperoHc and sister in law of the
actress, who was called to this country
by the lily to take the place of travelling

departure of Mrs Labouchere. whose
quarrel with Mrs. Langtry for accepting
the attentions Of Yew Yorker is wellrc
membered. Miss Agnes LangtTy is said
to be the sister of Dir. Langtry, and has
hitherto eHJoyed the intimate friendship
of his wife. She is more than few years
her senior is moderately good-looking,
and is very sedatc anu dignifed in her
manners. Since joining. The Company,
several months ago, she has been an al
most constant associate of Mrs Langtry
and Mr. Gebhardt in their walks and
drives, and her presence has done much
to check the talk which was created over
GebhaTdts devoted attention.
Those in position to speak advisedly de
clare that there have been no quarrels be
tween the Lily and her sister-in law. and
their friendship has seemed to be of the
most coFdial and mutual nature A
special dispatch TO the Times from
Rochester says hat two weeks

young man from Toronto. who hadbe
introduced to Miss Agnes Langtry lew
days before, and whose attentions to her,
it is said had been almost as marked as
were those of Gebhardt To the beauty.
After the sights had been enjoyed the
company assembled at the appointed
time to take their departure. but Miss
Bangtry and her friend were missing. No
explanation could be given of her absence,
and when last seen she was on the Can
adam side in company with the Toronto
| admirer, riding from the suspension
bridge toward the Clifton House As
| they were not on hand when the train was

out them. Kilograms were sent back to
her, but no information was obtained an

Mrs. Langtry She positively refused to
send the trunk, and she still holds posses
sion Of that ancient-looking box, studded
with bass nails and covered with COW
skin.
The jersey Lily is very angry at her
sister-in-law conduct, and is shocked
that her own decorum did not inspire
within her a deeper sense of propriety.
Meanwhile il is asserious question how a
woman can stay away two whole weeks
without her baggage. She sent several
kilograms later demanding her things, but
they have not received the slightest at
tention. The company is now playing ia

Geological Iafari9rity of thu Human Face.

Geological Iafari 9rity of ths Human Face.
Among the specifications made by q
recent writer on the geological rank OF
different animals. including man, par
tica1ar prominence is given to the in
feriority of the latter. as exhibited in
some OF hisstructural features compared
with certain quadrupeds. Thus, his
teeth are of q low mammalian type, as
is shown both by his dental formula and
by the presence of cusps upon the crowns
of the teeth, popularity of the lower
mammaiia. entirely lost in the horse,
the elephant aud many other 'sbrutes. -
Again, according To the comparison thus
set forth, his limbs show similar in
ferioiity, since they are little modified,
preserving even the full number of five
digits. and therefore. in respect of these
members. man stands very low lower
than the COW and the pig The point of
most interest, however, IN this discus
sion; is that which declares the human
face to be the most remarkable Of all
the induces of mans inferiority. Thus,
it is argued, in the mammalian embryo
the face is formed under the fore brain
or cerebral hemispheres, and in our
faces the fetal disposition is permanent
ly retained, with changes which even
when greatest, are still inconsiderable;
in quadrupeds, however, the facial
region acquires prominent develop
ment leading TO the specialization of the
jaws and surrounding parts, which
brings the face to a condition much
higher than that of the fetus hence the
projecting saa0ut is higher structure

A MAN OF GENTLE BRAVERY.
From the New Albany Ledger.

The finest poem that Joaquin Miller,
'EThc Poet of the Sicrras, has yetwritten
is the sketch Of the life of his father, pub
lished in the New York Indepeade8t.
True, it is in prose, but it is Il real epic
poem in sentiment. The story also re
veals the fact probably known to but
few, that the wild western poet was born
in this state, near Liberty He describes
the little cabin, the clearing in the wilder
ness, the patient toll o. his parents, the
long struggle with poverty, so familiar
to many of the pioneers of this then far
west. In reading the description of how
they lived, how his father alternately
labored in the field in mill, taught
school, acted as a justice of the peace
and general peacemaker in the neighbor-
hood, it is easy to see from whence his
gifted son Inherited his fine poetical ma
ture.
Joaquin tells strange fact about his
father, strange for that day at least, that,
though passing his life IN the Wilderness
he never fired gun. And yet he was the
bravest of the brave, traversing almost
painless forests at all hours of the day
and night, waylaid by wolves, mingling
with rough men rs well as wild animals,
but he never went armed. More than
that, when misfortune overlook him
through his kind and simple nature he
took up his family and journeyed with
them across the plains, weary seven
months journey, and not a fire-arm in the
little party Indians attacked and robbed
caravans, frequently killing large numbers
of armed and fighting men, yet this man
who was too tender hearted to shoot the
squirrels that were destroying-his corn in
the wilderness passed through miles of
hostile Indian country unmolested. His
life in far off Oregon was still one of toll,
but it was nghtened by his peaceful ma
ture. and there he now sleeps in the peace

THE BROTHERS LAFITTE.
Something of Their Wild Career as
1.-The Pirates of Barataria.e

There lived at this time (early in the
present century,, in New Orleans, John
and Pierre Lafitte John. the younger,
but more conspicuous of the two. was a
handsome man, fair, with black hair and
eyes, wearing his beard, as the fashion
was, shaven nearly back from the front
of the face. His manner was generally
courteous though he was irascible and in
graver moments somewhat harsh. lie
spoke fluently English, Spanish, italian
and French, using them with much alta
bility at the hotel where he resided and
indicating, in the peculiarities of his
French, his nativity in the city Of Bor-
deaux
The elder brother was a sea fTing man
and had served in the French navy. He
appears to have been every way less
slowly than the other; but beyond doubt
both men were above the occupation with
which they began life in Louisiana. This
was the trade of blacksmith though at
their forge, on the corner of St Phillip
and Bourbon streets, probably none but
slave hends swung the sledGe or SHAPED
the horseshoe.
1t was during the embargo enforced by
the United States government in 1908,
that John Lafitte began TO be merchant.
His store was in Royal street, where,
behind show of legitimate trade, he
was busy running the embargo with
goods and Africans. He wore the
disguise carelessly. He was cool and in
trepid and had only the courts to evade,
and his unlawful adventures did not lift
his name from the published list of mana
gers Of society balls or acquaintance with
prominent Legislators.
John and Pierre Laftte become the
commercial agents of the "privateers.
BY and by they were their actual chiefs.
They won great prosperity for the band;
prizes were rich and frequent, and slave
cargoes valuable. John Lafitte did not at
this time go to sea. He equipped vessels.
sent them on their cruises, sold their
prizes and slaves, and moved hither and
thither through the Delta. administering
affairs with holiness and sagacity. The
Mississippi's coasts" in the parishes of
the St, Sarnes and st. John the Baptist
were often astir with his known presence,
and his smaller vessels sometimes pierced
the interior as far as Lac DIES Allemands
He knew the value of popular admiration,
and was often at country balls. where he
enjoyed the fame of great riches and
courage. and seduced many of the simple
Acadian youth to sail in his cruises. His
two. principal captains were Beluche and
and Dominique You. Capt. Dominique
was small, graceful, fair. of pleasant,
even attractive face, and a skillful sailor.
There We're also Gambi, handsome Ital
ian, who died only few years ago at the
old pirate village of Chiniere Camanada,
and Rigoult, a dark Frenchman, whose
ancient house still stands on Grande Isle,
the Island next to Grand There on the
West. And yet Johnness and Johannot,
which appears likely-these We're
only the real names of Dominique and
Beluche. -ApTd Century.
