 Some two weeks ago man in Torring. ton, named Eggleston. had his nose cut entirely off by the fall of piece o1 plate glass and his upper lip also cut. He was hurried accross the street to g Dr Wheeler's office where the lip was sewed up. While the Doctor was busy at the lip man walked in with the nose in his hand. Quickly cleansing this the Doctor sewed it in position and now Eggleston is about the street with apparently as good nose as ever. There will always be slight scar around his nose, but Eggleston says he had rather have a nose with ring around it, than no nose at all.

ANOTHER STORY ABOUT JONES.
Did he Lose His Mind Trying to be a
Constitutional Lawyer.
Fron, the Neto YORK Star.

From the NetU York Star.
Like an echo from the past comes a dis
patch from Detroit reminding US of ex-
Senator Charles W. Jones of Florida. The
strange course of that unfortunate gentle
man in spending the last two or three years
of his senatorial term in Michigan instead
cf in w aShington attending to his duties,
caused widespread comment. The cause
for his singular action was variously stated.
One statement, which was widely credited
at the time, made it the outcome of mis-
placed and hopeless love; another, dis
appointed ambition, and SO on. Whatever
the cause, the result was fatal to
Senator Jones' career as a United States
senator, and when his term had expired
another was chosen in his stead. The ex-
senator continued to live in Detroit, though
with the stoppage of the senatorial salary
came days of financial distress, from which
he has not altogether recovered. Some OF
his republican friends in the City of the
Straits Jones himself is, or at least was,
democrat) are endeavoring to have him ap-
pointed to one of the minor missions abroad,
at salary which will aid him in restoring
his financial fortunes Whether it will b.
done or not, of course it is too early to say.
Ex-senator Jones is of Irish birth: IS
very large man, standing over six feet IN
hight, and very powerfully built. He was
a carpenter i'll his youth and is self
educated. He served in the confederate
army. He occupied high position at the
Florida bar, was popular with the people,
and but for his remarkable escapades
would doubtless have been again re-
turned to the Senate. He is a striking
looking rather than a handsome man,
with light hair and eyes and rudy face.
AS senator he had the reputation,
among the newspapers at least, of being a
fine constitutional lawyer. 1t is habit
with the newspaper correspondents at tie
capital TO give senators a reputation fol-
some distinctive quality as public spesker,
Thus, Edmunds is profound, ingalls, sar
castle, Vest howery, and SO on. AS Jones
was neither brilliant nor eloquent, but
trife heavy in his first great effort, they
gave it out that he was great constitu
tional lawyer. He felt it incumbe t
on him to live up to that
difficult distinction. 1t was a hard
task, and it made him almost preternatur
ally dignifed. He became the self APP
pointed champion and guardian of that
great instrument upon every occasion when
it could be dragged into the debate, and the
occasions are few when it cannot be in
voked. There are those who think that the
mental strain required for fairly good
lawyer to maintain the role of defender OF
the constitution for years was largely re-
Spo6sble for the unique ending of his SEN
atorial life. Be that as it may, the ex
senator was an honest man, an upright
official, kindly to his fellows, and few there
are vino do not wish him we'll.

OF all the great tragedy queens
whose acting his thrilled the pres
ent generation, none have ever
made so strong a portrayal of Meg
Nerrilies since Charlotte Cushman
died, as Janauschek. She has filled
il every detail of the part and
rounded out the whole, until the
great character stands before one
like q resurrection from the dead.
The genius of the woman still
shines superbly through her years,
and her tones, which search the re-
hottest corner OF theater, thrill
every listener as OF old.
This is Janauschek's farewell
tour, and those who have not seen her
ought not to miss the opportunity
of tonight. She is supported by a
strong company, and appears in the
greatest character of her roper
toire.
