Lord Edward Somerset and Mrs. Coventry
increased their stakes and also kept count
ers in their hands as well as on the table.
Plaintiff admitted that on the second
night of the baccarat games at Tranby-
croft the Prince of Wales said: 81 wish
that people would put their stakes where
they can be seem" but plaintiff added that
he did not think this remark applied to
him more than to any one else. The
baronet also admitted that he kept
number of counters in his pockets.
He did not ask to be confronted with his
accusers. It was folly on his part, he adj
mitted, but he did many foolish things
that evening. When he had presented to
him in such a form this most horrible
charge he lost his head.
In reply to further questions put by Sir
Charles Russell, plaintiff said he did not
recollect General Williams saying that the
Duke of Cambridge would not be so lenient
as they had been. He [plaintitfl
had never ceased to regret
that he signed the document
baronet admitted that within twenty-four
hours after signing this document he re-
ceived letter from Lord Coventry and
General Williams, saying there was no
possibility of doing otherwise than to
believe him guilty, as there were
FIVE persons against one. He tSir
Charles Gordon Cumming] signed the
document in question because his
friends advised him that he had
no chance to prove his innocence, as there
were five against him, and in order to
avoid a scandal which would necessarily
involve the Prince of Wales. Plaintiff
added that had General Williams and
Lord Coventry given him any indication
that they had a belief in his guilt, he
would not have signed the document pre-
scented to him.
Sir Charles Russell at this stage of the
proceedings read a letter which Sir VIII
liam Gordon Cumming had handed to
General Williams before leaving Tranby-
croft, in which the baronet said he hoped
General Williams would tell the Prince
of Wales that he Sir Williaml
had been entirely guided by ad-
vice given by the prince, Lord
Coventry and General Williams, though
he denied the allegations made against
him, as it was essential to avoid q scandal.
In this letter Sir William also said he
should never touch another card, and ex-
pressed wish that his winnings should
be given to some hospital.
Answering a question. the plaintiff said
he had received a memorandum signed by
the Prince of Wales, Lord Coventry and
General Williams. saying they did not de-
sire to be unnecessarily hard, but
he [Sir Williaml must clearly under
stand that in the face of the overwhelming
evidence presented it was useless to at
tempt to deny the accusation against him,
and so long as he complied with the con-
ditions set forth in the document he 1.-THE
plaintiff had signed, silence would be
maintained.
1.-THE method by which Gordon Cumming OBJ
tanned an unfair advantage was the use OF
little mirror before him, enabling him to read
the hands of the other gamblers. 1t is an old
trick among British aristocrats and other sure
thing manipulators.l

Vienna has one physician for each 600 of
population In the city proper, and one for each
$3.50 OF suburban population. Paris, with an
estimated population of 2, 100000, has 200
physicians, or about one to the thousand. In
the whole OF Russia, in July, 1890. there were
12,l12 male and go female practitioners, a total
OF i2rS12, or about one TO the 10000 Of popula-
ton. But the death rate per thousand is said
to be lower in Russia than In Austria or France,
though the climate of the former is far more
rigorous than tha. Of the others. Whether this
shall be held to account for the larger percent
age OF doctors in the two latter countries than
In Russia, Or whether the larger percentage of
medicos shall be held TO account for the higher
death rate, is very proper subject for debate
and Investigation.

A THRIFTY REFORMER,
PlOWman is a Fair Sample of the
Harpies that Parade as
Alliance RefOrners.

Hon. Henry Plowman appears
to have struck about the fattest
thing OF any of the Otter Tail
county reformers. The dominant
faction of the reform movement
side tracked him when he wanted
the Legislative nomination and to
sort Of smooth matters over got
him the job of sergeant-at-arms of
the house. It has proved a bo-
nanza and it is reported that it will
net Mr.. Plowman from $4,000 to
$4,000. In addition to his regular
salary he gets very fat mileage fees
in the committee Investigations,
and it seems as though the wheat
investigation would never end
not at least until the $4,000 ap-
preparation is wiped out. The
sergeant-at-arms takes out parties
like the one Mr.. Plowman brought
to Fergus Falls to see the asylum
cost S1S3.50, not including the
Anderson & Smith bill-and per-
forms many other pleasant and
profitable jobs. Mr.. Plowman's
many friends will rejoice at his
good luck, and we might also re-
mark that his right hand is still
safe and his hearts blood is still
unshed.-F6rgus FazZs Journal.
