LAURA DAINTY.
How a Craze for the Stage Overcame Love
for Husband and Baby.

How Craze for the Stage Overcame Love
for Husband and Baby.
Chicago Letter
You probably have heard Of the new theatrical
star, Laura Dainty. 1t seems to be part of
the programme for these artists wherever they
may come FROM to live unhappily with their
marital partners. so that Laura Dainty IS no ex-
ception: but story is little pitiful than
most of Them. ! remember when . few years
ago, she was happy and contented wife, living
ON the North Side Her husband was then, as
he is now, the head of an important department
In downtown store He was a clever fellow
and commercial in his tastes. She was a chatty
little body, fond of reading Reade's nov
els, which were then having a rage, full
of vivacitY and a most charming
always at home. One day somebody told her
she ought to be reader. She began by read
ing to the people in the parloE Then she APP
peared at church fairs, until the papers began 20
put her name in the theatrical mans gossip.
This seemed to start up a thirst for notoriety
She wHnt over the country reading in churches
here and theee. Then she went to Boston and
took lessons In elocution Her husband objected.
but she overruled him. She returned here
with q raging fever for the stage They had
a baby--a halnely way Of putting it--and for
awhile she seemed to forget everything
but that and they bought farm and had it put
aside for this heir when it grew to womanhood
How happy they seemed, and how their friends
reioiced Tit. But the stage craze came back to
her No persuasion could keep her away. Man
ager McVicker- no wonder he is gray and some
times cold--tald her to hold off He told her to
put away her ambition and remain at home. and
fnaIly in lis Impotence with her, he said
d it, you are not big enough to act, any
way
This only exasperated her She made her first
appearance in "A Mount ain Pink. and has been
on the road for some time. Her husband fled
a suit for divorce this week, alleging desertion
as the cause

CLIMATIC wonder.

New York World
The fourteen Eear-o1d Brooklyn miss who took
the chewing gum from her mouth the other day
and went OF in her paptalettes and got married,
is what would be called in this secular city a
blooming example of that kind of maternal
vigilance which is not the price of liberty.
When Brooklyn girls of fourteen intermit their
rolling Of hoops and jumping OF ropes to perform
the great matrimonial trick, it is time that the
interests of the race were looked after little In
rule. we do not oppose matrimonv although the
Brooklyn plan of marrying early and often is
open to objections but when the girls jump out
of their planfores to prove themselves matrons
it is time for conservative men in this latitude to
either readjust the climate or the statutes.

..He Pulled the Lever. .

New York Special.
Tho Philadelphia Times says the Sun forgets
Chat when Cleveland pulled the lever it was his
duty. The Sun responds
The law imposes no such duty upon sheriff
He is not required to execute a malefactor with
his own hand. He must see that the sentence
of death is executed, but there is no obligation
upon him to be himself the haneman. It is true
that when he performs this revolving office him
self. he saves to his own credit the fee which he
would otherwise have to pay to professional
executiOner. 1t is question of money, not duty.
In all ages and in all countries the work of .
public executioner has been regarded as some
thing shocking and repugnant. This may be a
prejudice unworthy Of philosophic genius, but
1t is lixed IN the human heart

Democrats As Friends Of the Negro.

Correspondence Of the Indianapolis Journal.
KNIGHrsyILLE, Sept AIT meeting of the
colored citizens held here last Tuesday, series
Of resolutions introduced by R. ClMcCowan,
were adopted showing that the colored man rea-
sons forcefully from cause to effect, is keen OBJ
server of the past and hooks upon the future
with clear eye. The resolutions were evidently
called out by the recent fasco of Alfred Har-
rison and lawyer Hill in this city, in their at
tempt to be the bellwethers to lead the flock
into the Democratic fold. The resolutions
pledge their support to the Republican party,
the only party whose past gives the colored
people any hope for the future; that they believe
in independence but denounce the address OF
Alfred Harrison as demagogical and misehievous
at his so-called independent meeting at Indianap-
oils: that Democracy has always been against
the interests Of the eolored man, and that the
fifteen years they have voted with the
years they have labored for Democrats.
The resolutions note the fact that at Demo-
cratic meeting held at Indianapolis March s.
1862 q committee was appointed by the chair
man, consisting Of Samuel H. Buskirk, p. NJ
Kent. NJ. Il. Brett. Joseph q. Mcdonald, John
Love, James B. Ryan and James Sweetser of
Grant county. and that Democratic committee
presented the following resolution, to-wit:
Resolved That we are now as ever, opposed to
all attempts to establish ia Indiana the political and
social equality of the negro with the white race and
believe the introduction of the negro element into
our political system would result IN discord anarchy
and war Of the races, and that our true line of
tain the political power solely in the hands Of the
