DID he HAVE THE RIGHTP
Ex-County Commissioner Dorsett N
q Peculiar Case.


aPeculiar Case.
The morning session of the city court was
occupied yesterday with the trial of the
suit brought by Col. William Garrard and
Alderman Herman Myers TO recover from
Charles ii. DorSett commission for the
sale of county Jail lots to plaintiffs As the
county commissioners were witnesses in the
case, and had to attend their monthly
meeting in the afternoon, without finishing
the trial, the court took a recess until IL
o'clock this morning., to which time the
case was continued.
There is considerable interest attached TO
the case. Mr.. Dorsett was member Of the
board of county commissioners at the time
the old Jail lots at Whitaker and Hall
streets were sold, and as a real estate broker
he negotiated the sale of two OF
the lots to Col. Garrard and
Alderman Myers for $4,000 and his com
mission, which was 2}5 per cent. The
county got $3.50 net for the lots. Mr..
Dorset got all but 500 of his commissions.
Col. Garrard and Alderman Myers sued to
recover the $500 paid to Mr.. Dorsett on the
ground that he had 10 authority to charge
q commission for selling the property.

FAST-BLACK STOCKINGS.
How Miss Lillian Lewis Got Fooled In q
Pair i'm Chicago.

A good story Is told about Lillian Lewis
During recent engagement in Chicago she
had occasion TO wear a pair Of black silk stock
ings in the first act Of the play. So that no
accident should happen she sent her maid to
buy q new pair, giving her strict injunctions to
be sure and get them fast black. The maid
brought home Q pair warranted to be fast
black-acid, soap. potash, sunlight or moon
light could not fade or faze the blackness Of
those stockings. Miss Lewis stuck her neat
little foot into those stockings and wore them
in the first act. In the next act she wears
beautiful white brocaded satin, and with this,
Of course, she wears white satin slippers and q
pair of thin white silk stockings fine as a cob
web. After the stormy first act the actress re-
paired to her dressing room and the black
stockings were pulled OF. when, 10 and b,holdl
the dainty feet were black as Barnum's Zulus.
Toilet soap, cold cream and vasellne-all were
of no avail. The fast black did not stick to the
stockings, but 1t stuck to the feet and wouldn't
bulge q bit.
.Ican't go on like that" cried the emotional
actress with genuine emotion; "those white
stocking are so thin that the black on nv feet
would snow right through. What shall do?''
The soubrette suggested turning on the hose,
and after lodging a fusilade Of pin cushions.
curling irons, powder puts and perfume bottles
she concluded to retreat. Finally the veteran
stage manager came to the rescue
Cant get that ofY' said he. 'Odds bodikin,
III get it on, and hs did. He was gone about
three minutes and returned with his two hands
full Of soft soap, with which he covered the fair
Iilfian's pedal extremities. In a few minutes
the lady sailed on the stage all smiles. Soft
soap had done the work. Miss Lewis now
swears that soft soap is q powerful factor; il
even cleans feet. She has, however, eschewed
black silk stockings. and any one who wants to
be treated to the .'glare Of her tragic eyes, has
only to refer to Chicago and black silk stock.

GRUMBLlNG AND NAGGING.
A Little Sermon Which Should Go with
the Wedding Ring.

From the Culver.
For want of a little thought many a wedding
ring has cut, as it were, the wearer's finger to
the bone. Many wedding ring has been
heavier than ton Of lead. Men must make
allowances for women as women, If they want
to be happy themselves and to make their
wives happy, and women must make allow
ances for men and for men as men. They each
have their own troubles and their own needs,
and very often the one does not understand
and cannot understand the needs Of the other.
Men have their own troubles and worries, and
women have theirs; let each be assured Of that
as regards the other and act accordingly. 1t
will be appreciated-dont be afraid Of that
Beware of naggledom, my dear. The man that
will stand being nagged at is q saint, and saints
are not as plentiful a. blackberries in the
world. There's male nagging, my dear, as
well as female-male grumbling and never
being pleased; and folks who expect to come
out a. "duck" at the end Of one hundred and
twenty years would, after eighty or ninety
years nagging, make poor figure in a matri-
monial poultry show. II the man had been
grumbling and the woman nagging all that
time they'd look like two moulting birds and
not like two well-establlshed healthy fowls.
Each to be the Others help, each the others
blessing; each TO hope to be with the other for
ever and ever, and 30 to live here that they
may be Mt for being together there.

A Gymnasium for Girls.

To the Editor Of TIVE EVENING STAR:
am girl and l want something, and as I
want it very badly have decided to ask for it
for myself and suffering companions.
We want a gymnasium! We want some place
where We can practice our calisthenics and have
the advantages Of plenty Of room to swing our
clubs in and plenty Of clubs to swing. We want
TO be able to 90 down to the gymnasium and in
light and airy costumes swing on trapeze, turn
on bar, jump from spring boards, hit sand
bags, kick, aud, II we feel SO inclined, punch
each others heads. In fine, we want the advan-
tages FOR physical development which are ac-
corded to men, and then we will show them
that We too can say Just feel that muscle"
and with reason.
We ride great deal and we are getting one
sided. We want some place where we can ex-
erclse the other leg. We have Indian clubs
and dumb-bells, and as soon as we begin TO
practice our mothers rush in and say: "Do be
careful Of the chandelier-there, you're sure to
break your mirror" We want some place
where there are no chandeliers and no mirrors!
Why does not some philanthropic person
donate sum OF money to found girls gym
nasium? Or might not one of the athletic
clubs give Us an unoccupied hour for exclusive
use OF their gymnasium to practice in? We
really want to be strong and healthy. and if
you, Mr.. Editor, will only think of the need we
girls have for strength Of arm, am sure you
will espouse our cause. It isn't bit pleasant
Qm told to have some horrid man determined
to steal a kiss-and when you exert your ut
most strength-to know that you haven't a
show against him. while he laughs in your face
at your puny efforts. Ugh! but Just
give US q chance and we'll show them
that their superiority in physical attachments is
no more lasting than in mental ones Just let
US have our rights! Not that am a regular
woman's-rights woman. Heaven forbid! l
have always obtained my rights without fight
ing for them; but do think that if men want
pretty. healthy wives, women who will be
helpers in their life struggle and not peevish
invalids or helpless membranes, they will
give them chance to develop their physical
energy, and find with perfect health, beauty
and good tempers. Rib.
