NEw YoRK, Aug. 5.-In the ARREST Of
summer costumes and radiant with
smiles Mrs. Leslie Carter appeared in
Part 8, Of the Court of Common Pleas
Yesterday for examination in supple
mentary proceedings. She was accom-
panied By her mother; E. D. Price, her
manager, and Benjamin Steinhardt, OF
Howe q HGmmel, her counsel. The OBJ
ject OF the examination was TO find some
property belonging to Mrs. Carter,
which could be levied upon in satisfac-
ton Of the judgment for Sl6T s. obtains
ed several months ago by George n.
Phelps, the artist, for pastel portrait
OF her, which he painted upon her or
der but which she refused to accept as
sorting that 1t was not good likeness.
In answer 10 Rufus P. Lvermore,
counsel for Mr.. Phelps, Mrs. Carter
stated that she now lived with her
mother In the Madison flats, at Twenty
fifth street and Madison avenue; that
her mother paid all the expenses OF her
maintenance and that she now owned
no property, real or personal.
"What is your occupation% asked
Mr.. Liyermore.
''Put 1t down an artist, please, she
said. ~ hope to be an actress some
day."
what were you paid for playing last
season 2" asked Mr.. Livermore.
Nothing" was the reply, "and 1never
asked for anything
Mrs. Carter, yon say you own no per-
sonal property. How about an amber
handled fan worth S25Owhich you swore
some time ago you owned?"
"0h, forgot that. | have given the
fan to my mother, and think she has
it now. 1 did have some diamond rings
and pins, piano and some pictures. |
gave them also to my mother"
At the close OF her examination Mrs.
Carter went before Judge Pryor and
swore to it, atfixing the name Louise
Dudley Carter.

Amor MANY Ycars.

A story of thrilling interest comes
from Nebraska. Fifteen years ago two
men, Marion and Crawford, started on
journey in a wagon belonging to
Crawford. Shortly after, a body, iden-
titled as crawford's, was found in the
river. Then it was learned that Marion
has been seen with Crawtord's wagon
and other belongings. When search
was made for Marion he was not to be
found.
Ten years later, Marion was caught.
In March, 1857, he was hanged for the
murder of Crawford. An uncle OF Ma
rion, who has never doubted his limo
cence, has at last found the dead man,
who settled in Kansas a year ago, after
wandering in Mexico and Alaska.
Hearing that Marion had been hanged,
Crawford desired to conceal his iden-
tity, fearing that in some way he would
be made to suffer.
Why Crawford did what no did is not
explained. The raw materials of cir
cumstantial evidence were not abund-
ant, but they made q case which n
shrewd lawyer could work up to good
advantage. Nevertheless the one man
was not murdered and the other man
was hanged for a murder that was
never committed.
If the supposed murderer had been
imprisoned for life society could now
make him some compensation but he
is gone, and SO far as this world is con-
cerned that is the end OF him. Other
plumbers Of this kind have been known.
1t is known also also that tho fearot
hanging does not keep men from doing
murder. Its doubted whether II deters
anybody. The time will come when the
law Of niger civilization will not kill
men to punish them, but many more
will go that way before this time comes.
Society rather seems to find a delight
in it.

Why Mrs. HopkIns-searies Lost aI Inter.
est In Her Adopted Sun.

est In Her Adopted Sun.
sAx FRASclsco, CAL, Aug. 5.-Tim-
othy Hogan-Hopkins, the adopted son
of the late Mrs. Hopkins-searles, is now
in Japan, but his attorney WILL take
steps at an early date toward
breaking the will, on the ground that
Mr.. Seartes unduiy influenced his wife
in the matter.
The facts, however, do not bear out
the supposition that young Hogan Hop
kins is abused. or that his adopted
mother became preiudiced against him
at the instance OF any one. Some nine
years ago the young man, who was
adopted out OF an Irish family by the
name OF Hogan, was made treasurer OF
the Southern Pacific road at the in.
stance Of Mrs. Hopkins, who, at that
time, had great deal OF faith in him.
He inRugurated the most startling
economics, cut down wages; and, at the
end OF the first year, saved the road
about $4,000. He married a niece OF
Mrs. Hopkins and was presented By the
latter with home at Menlo Park worth
S500,000.
Hogan made a great mistake, how.
ever, in antaYoniztng the Crockers, and
sent letters to his adopted mother ut
Great harrington saying that Charles
Croker and his son were trying to de-
fraud her. MrR. Hopkins sent attor-
neys to San Francisco, who learned that
there was no truth in the story and
that the Crockers were perfectly
straight, but that Timothy, whom she
had showered with favors, had repaid
her kindness by employing detectives
to watch her and report to him as to
the probability Of her marrying again.
This so disgusted her that she
promptly threw Timothy overheard
and married Mr.. Searles, disinheriting
her adopted son then and there. Had
it not been for the young mans work
he would undoubtedly have come in for
some millions under the will.

Preserve the Mound.

The famous mound from which
Moundsvills takes its name is well
worth preserving. To make sure Of
this it will have to be bought from its
owner. West virginians should need
no urging to contribute what may be
necessary for the purpose. It is to be
supposed, of course, that the price
would be reasonable. The mound
should be public property and so re.
main for all time. Mr.. Lewis suggests
that the schools take hold. Everybody
should take hold and make the move
uIent a success. The first step is to
know the price.

Immediately after they were refused he
