'Dr. Pyll, you have earned my lasting

The beautiful young convalescent, pale but
never more lovely, was sitting up for the first
time since her illness had taken favorable
turn. She leaned back in her easy chair,
comfortably propped with pillows, and looked
with ardent gratitude at the young physiciaz
who had called to make his last professional
visit.
Don't speak Of it in that way, Miss Win
ale, he replied. Gin your happy recovery l

highest skill"
But it would be unprofessional to let your

A story of Meissonier.

The enterprising manager of Paris
theatre once called upon Meissonier and
asked him to paint a drop scene for
certain theatre and name his own terms
''You have seen my pictures, them"
asked Meissonier. ''Oh, yes" exclaimed
the manager; ''but it is your name-your
name / want; it will draw crowds to my
theatre. " And how large is it you wish
this curtain to be?' inquired the artist
"Ah, well, we will say fifteen meters by
eighteen Meissonier took up pencil
and proceeded to make calculation. At
last he looked up and said with imper-
turbable gravity: Il have calculated and
find that my pictures are valued at So
600 francs per meter. Your curtain
therefore, will cost you just 81, 900, 900
francs. But that is not ALL 1t takes me
twelve months to paint twenty-five CEN
timeters of canvas. It will, therefore.
take me just 100 years to finish your
curtain. You should have come TO me
earlier, monsieur; am too old for the
undertaking now. Good morning.

A Texas Vendetta.

HUsroS, Texas, July 3l.-William Cald-
well, (colored), was hanged to-day in the
county jail. His neck was broken and he
was pronounced dead at the expiration of
eight minutes.
The crime for which Caldwell was exc
cuted was the killing of DR.. C. NJ. Shamb-
len on the night OF July 81, 1855. This YVES
the first murder in what became notable as
the vendetta between what is here known
as the Jay Bird and "Woodpecker'' fac
tlons in Fort Bend county. The warfare
existed two years between these factions,
DISCRIMINATING whole families and scores of
men were murdered during its reign.
Caldwell Is the only person who has met
Judicial death on account of IL DR.. Shamb-
len was prominent "Jay Bird, or Demo
crat, and leader Of the opposition to those
VITO were controlling the political destiny
OF Fort Bend county. AT tina. time Cald-
well was "WooGpecker', or Republican.
On the night of the assassination Dr.
Shamolen WAS holding family prayers near
Richmond, Fort Bend county. Suddenly q
load of buckshot was fired through the
window into DIR. Shamblen. He fell to the
floor with groan and expired, still holding
closely TO the Bible from which he had been
reading. Caldwell had been renting farm
from the murdered man and there had been
trouble between them. The evidence on
which he was convicted was purely circum-
stantial.

1t, and think that as q month has elapsed,
his silence must be considered even by the
most incredulous, as confirmation Of the
truth of what said. Moreover, / cannot
see why Count Won Munster should have
TO protest against his conversation except
for its affording a profound glance into
Prince Bismarck's internal agitation at
this most conspicuous moment of his LIE,
for it shows Count Won Munster TO be An
extremely acute observer, q man who
thought it his duty TO explain why his
young master had the resolution to dismiss
Prince Bismarck, and by what considera-
ton he was governed when he parted with
the chancellor, for whom, l am sure, not
withstanding their separation, he has
never ceased to cherish great and sincere
admiration as a politician, statesman and
patriot,
The above interview was taken
down in shorthand, as NJ. de Blowitz dc
tated IL in English. without using one
word of another language. This should
effectually dispose of another false report
that he does not understand English As q
matter OF fact he speaks the majority OF
the modern languages with equal tiuency.

Gillian Insurgents Detain British BARK.

ISpecia 10 THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.l
NEW YORK, July 3l--A Herald cable
from Coquimbo, Chilli, says the Esmeralda

for this port with a cargo of -four, when
the two insurgent war ships came up with

her chase OF the bark Peral and the Gillian

REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE CHANGES
They Rid Harrison OF Two Enemies-Ihe
Appointment Of Fassett Sop TO
Tom Plat.

lSpeciait to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatcn-l
NEW YORK. July 3l.-The Suns special
from Washington says: 1t IS possible
that the men whose political aspirations
were most directly affected by the re-
organization of the national Republican
committee and the appointment OF Tom
Platt's candidate to become collector OF
the Port Of New York, are Benjamin Har-
rison and James J. Blaine. No movement
possible to be made on the political chess
board seems to be able to lay straw in
way of the progress OF the Maine man to
ward the presidential nomination, and thus
il is that the retirement Of Quay and bud
ley, both active and open enemies of Presi-
dent Harrison, from participation in the
management Of the Republican committee,
leaves Blaine more than ever the popular
candidate 1t has now come TO be generally
believed by Republicans in Washington that
no power on earth can prevent Blaine 5
nomination, except the power or his own
voluntary and emphatic declaration that he
will not be "a candidate or allow his friends
TO secure the nomination for him. In con
nection with Wednesdays WORK of the Re
publicans q new ticket is being talked of
of the names of Blaine and Alger. The
Michigan candidate has repeatedly an
nounced he would never consent TO &C
cepupg second place. All the same some
of his friends and others are confident he
would be proud TO be attached to the tail of
Blaine ticket Should ill-heslth or mis-
taken sense of loyalty TO Harrison cause
Mr.. Blaine TO refuse 10 be candidate, the
Alger combination Will be broken by the
appearance of Mckinley in the field
Should the major carry Ohio this fall and
find the race for President anlopen one in
1892, with Blame not in IL, he would be
very apt TO come 10 the front, and then
Alger, as a western man, would not be
possible.
The re organization of the national CON-
mittee BODIES no good TO Harrison, though
he may have attempted 10 make friend OF
Ten Platt, by appointing his friend Fas-
sett collector and thus make g strong bid
for the support OF the New YORK delega-
ton. Mr.. Harrison's friends are to-day
busy in crediting him with the performance
of a very shrewd political act in placating
the Plat Republicans by the appointment
of Fassett, lust at the moment when be
appeared TO be losing his hitherto strong
friends on the national committee. IL Is
possible the President did make strong
move, tut none the less the cry Of the Re
publicans in and out of office in Washing
ton, politicians as well as representatives
of the masses, Is ''Blaine, Blaine, Blaine"

Rerkeley Peerage Claim Decided.

LONDON, July 3l.--The houseiof lords, sit
ing as a committee of privileges today, de-
cided the remarkable and historic Berkeley
peerage claim. The house decided Randall
Mowbray Thomas Berkeley had established
his claim TO the honors and dignities Of the
Earl Of Berkeley and Viscount Dursley.
The claimant is the alleged male legitimate
issue of the fifth earl of Berkeley, who
died in 1910. He contended that be, being
the Oldest male heir of the fourth earl, was
entitled 10 the peerage in question. Up
posed 10 this claim was the claim OF Francis
William Fitzharding Z. Berkeley, Baron
Fitzharding, who asserted the uftn earl
of Berkeley married woman named Mary
Cole in l7s5, but acting under adylce fur-
Their marriage ceremony was performed IN
1876. and the house of lords, in ISL, de-
cided the Oldest son, who was born IN lIo6,
was not entitled 10 the succession. The
decision given 10 day upholds the decision
given in ISL. Consequently Berkeley Will
hereafter be a peer of the realm The
house directed that Baron Fitzharding be
non suited. -t

the Republican party and its hopes of sue
