A Distinguished Woman.

Miss Maria Mitchell, for many years
Professor of Astronomy at vassar Col
lege, Poughkeepsie, N. V, and the
first incumbent of that position, has
resigned the professorship. For twcn-
ty-two years she has taught astronomy
in that institution. She was born in
Nantucket, Mass, Aug. l, 1918, and
there began her astronomical work at
the age of eleven years, by assisting
her father in observing lunar eclipse
In 1S47 she discovered a comet, and
this made her fame, the King of Den
mark giving her gold medal in hon
or of the achievement. She has since
added seven other comets to her list
being the first discoverer Of all them
She visited Europe shortly after 1917
and was there the guest of Sir John
Herschel and Sir George Airy, then
Astronomer Royal at Greenwich. She
holds the degree of L. L. ID. from three
institutions, the last being granted by
Columbia College. She is one of the
glories of Nantucket, the natives Of
that island being very proud of its dis.
tinguished daughter. Her resignation
was prompted solely by desire fol
rest, which was needed on account Of
her advanced age.

Insurance Laws.

We in Mississippi who have been
complaining about insurance monopo-
ly may find some comfort in the fol-
lowing notice which is being published
in Tennessee papers. Our neighbor's
laws and officials are far more strict
than ours in excluding unlicensed COM
panies from its border:
my attention is called by the State
Treasurer and Insurance Commission
er to the fact that millions of dollars
of insurance ON life and property in
this community are said to be carried
by unauthorized companies.
The act of the last Legislature rigidly
requires license for the conduct of
insurance business, whether upon life
or property; and as to fire insurance,
every person is prohibited from insur-
ing in any foreign company which has
not compiled with the law--it being
provided that all policies issued to
residents of this State by companies
that have not complied with the re-
quirements of the general insurance
laws of the State "shall be null and
void, and of no force or effect what
ever.n
This law was passed for the twofold
purpose of protecting persons who in
sure their lives and property, and o.
protecting also those companies which
pay for and obtain licenses, and do an
authorized business. All agents ant
persons violating these provisions ar'
subject to indictment in the Crimina
Court.
/ take this method, under instruc
tions from the Treasurer of the State
of calling attention to this law, and O
announcing that insurance agents o.
all kinds who are violating its provi
sions and all persons who are carrying
insurance in foreign companies no'
authorized to insure in Tennessee, vii
be Immediately provided against il
the Criminal Court Of Shelby count,
as required by law"

Mr.. Llnc0ln's First Experience With
Reporters.

Mr.. Lincoln was quite apt to prepare
himself in advance for these little
events, and when he did he generally
followed his manuscript carefully. Mr..
Hit was present when the representa-
tives of the national convention, head
ed by George Ashmun, called on Mr..
Lincoln to inform him Of his nomina-
ton. Mr.. Lincoln did not quite like
to see a man reporting him, especially
when he was only making speech of
a few minutes, and when, after little
general talk, Mr.. Ashmun stepped for
ward and began to address Mr.. Lin
coin, Mr.. Hit got behind one of the
spectators, and proceeded to take MIR.
Lincoln's response verbatim. After
the affair was over Mr.. Lincoln came
up to Mr.. Hit and asked " Did you
hear all that ! said" " Every word,'
was the response. Well,' said Mr..
Lincoln, / was afraid you would
not be able to hear, so wrote what |
was going to say beforehand" and he
handed Mr. Hit the speech in writing.
Mr. Hit and Henry J. Raymond COM
pared the written speech and the stem
ographic report. and there was not the
variation of a word.--" f. p. p" in

The Crown Prince Doomed.
New York Associated Press.

New York Associated Press.
Berlin, March 3.--The imperial fam
lily has ceased to hope for the recovery
of the crown prince. The first results
of the microscopic examination by
Prof Waldmeicr, as communicated to
the Emperor, are unfavorable, disclos-
ing traces of cancer in the pus arising
from necrosis of the cartilage of the
larynx. The full official report of
Prof. Waldmeier will be delayed until
DR.. Recklinhausen makes an analysis.
DR.. Zimmens will probably also be re-
questcd to examine the pus. Apart
from the results of the examination,
court dispatches confirm the progress
of symptoms tending toward a fatal
issue. The occasional appearance of
Improvement is followed by renewal
of the gravest indications. Thus on
Thursday the crown prince seemed
stronger and in greater spirits, but
during the following night there was
an access Of diarrhGa, with slight fever.
The newspaper reports from san Reno
conflict.
The decrease in his strength has
caused saddening change in his as
pect, and has transformed him from a
robust into an aged and debilitated
man, who is obviously suffering. The
conflict of reports does not weaken the
fact, based upon absolute information,
that in the highest official quarter
every hope has been abandoned of his
recovery.
No immediate crisis is expected, but
il is recognized that a sudden change
for the worse may occur at any
moment, involving his death if the dis
case SHOULD be permitted TO run its
full course.

Interesting Funeral.

New York. March 5.-fOur women,
each claiming to be the widow of eX-
Fire Commissioner Philip f. Brennan
of Brooklyn, whose death is still mys-
terry, attended the funeral services over
the remains in the Fourteenth regi-
ment armory, Brooklyn, yesterday.
When the Rev. Mason Gallagher, chap
lain of Grant Post, Grand Army of
the Republic, was about to begin the
services, Mrs. Emma Brennan, with
whom Mr.. Brennan lived. entered the
room ami took u stand in the rear or
the throng, while another woman, who
called herself Mrs. Clara Brennan. and
who claims to have been married to
Brennan in 1873, stood near by. A
third alleged Mrs. Brennan, who says
she welded the ex-iire commissioner
in 1880, occupied front seat with two
female friends. Mrs. Brainard, who
AYERS that she was joined in matrimony
to Brennan two years ago, the fourth
alleged spouse, had been present, but
did not wait for the funeral service, as
she was persuaded TO leave the armory
few hours before the ceremony was
begun to avoid the possibility Of a
scene. When the time came for the
mourners to take last look at the re-
mains, members of the regiment vete-
ran corps gathered around the caskct
in order to keep the alleged widows
from creating a scene. 1t is said that
three other women who claimed the
ex-fire commissioner as their husband
were also present
Everything passed over quietly, and
the remains were then taken to the Cy-
press Hill Cemetery, accompanied by
by the Fourteenth regiment veteran
corps. and Rankin and Grant Post,
G. a. X. After the Grand Army rit-
ual had been read, the women, who
would not rclinquish their claims as
widows of the dead man, were quietly
but dccisively led to their carriages and
driven off.

The Question Ofa constitutional COnVen-
ti0n.

Messrs. Walker aud Carter. Chair
men respectively of the Senate and

called on the Governor and asked if a
bill calling a Constitutional Conven-
tion could be SO framed that he would
sign it. they arguing the necessity Of a
convention, and that il was demanded
by the people, while the Governor
eontended the contrary. The inter-
view ended by the Governor inform
ing them that he would veto any bill
looking 10 the calling of such a con-
vention. The New Nlississippian says
the move has been abaaioned for the
present session and that Il viii be made
the paramount issue before the next
Democratic State Convention. This
is just what the Governor proposed
some time sinee.-lazoo Sentinel.
This question would more properly
enter into the State canvass in 1889 (;
than that of 1888. The convention this
year will be called for specific pur-
pose, entirely alien to this subject Of
State policy. An expression upon ii
from delegates called for the purpose
of selecting representatives in the
national convention and nominating
presidential electors, would be mere
opinion and without finding force.
But in 1889 there viii be a nomination
for Governor and new Legislature
chosen. The constitutional convention
question would be proper issue be-
tween the candidates for these offices.
There would be no objection of course
to a resolution, testing to partial ex-
tent, the strength of the idea in the
pending convention. But such expires
sion could not rightly be taken as
authoritative of public opinion.
