WALTER CRANES GREAT WORK.
Franklin Murphy's Gift to st. PauPs NJ.
u. Church In Neauarl

Franklin Murphy's Gift to st. PauPs NJ.
f. Church in Newark.
Walter Crane has made the design for a
memorial window which will be the largest
III America. If is the gift of Franklin Muir
ply to st. PauPs Methodist Episcopal
Church in Newark, n. j.. and is presented
by him as commemoration of his deceased
daughter.
The dimensions Of this window are
twenty-three feet in breadth and thirty in
height.
The subject is St Paul preaching on Mars
HILL 1t is a tIyptych, the Apostle, with
both hands appraised in Jealous exhortation,
filling the center division, with groups of
Athenian men and women, picturesquely
disposed In attitudes of rapt attention, oc-
cupying the side windows.
Crane is a close rival of Burne- Jones in
his line Of artistic work, and in one or two
hgures in this composition there is sug-
gestion Of that artist. 1t is work which
will augment Cranes reputation as an artist
materially and will make him better known
IN America. Many are doubtless familiar
with the frieze which he did for the New
Wolfe.
The American stained-glass workers have
a very high reputation for excellence. and
the cons tructlon of this important window
has been intrusted to Mr.. Lamb of Carnine
street. New York. +. s. Lamb of this firm
has the cartoons, with the figures drawn on
The scale they will occupy in the window,
nearly completed at Brook Green Studios,
henslngton, where your correspondent saw
them.
Mr.. Crane has also designed floor for a
library In New York. The design for this
he showed to the Worlds correspondent,
Who called on him at his delightful home,
Beaumont Lodge, BaysWater.
III Is circular in form. The diameter of
this circle is thirty-six feet. The outer part
consists OF series of panels illustrating
the process of making books from the ear
Hest time. Egyptians gathering the papy-
rus, Greek philosophers reading from parch-
ment scrolls, medieval monks illuminating
and black-letierlng, Gutenberg, Franklin,
Caxton and the modern press are repre-
scented In these panels. The interior of the
circle has four symbolic figures, with richly
decorated background and the legend Let
there be light" distributed SO that word is
placed over the head of each figure.
The price to be paid for this window is
something over $4,000. In England the
stalned-glass window makers regard four
feet as generous width so that the dimen-
slonS OF this window are rather startling to
them.
Crane is having an exhibition of his works
now IN New Bond street. He intends to
come over to America this autumn. and will
probably exhibit a collection of his paintings
at. the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. His
work Will naturally challenge comparison
with that OF John La Fargo. Cranes line
work is admirable. He draws with remark
able freedom and unerring accuracy, gift
which serves him well in his class of work

FLIRTING WITH TWO GIRLS.
/ Mock Trial at Glenn Springs, and How
1t Turned Out.

A Mock Trial at Glenn Springs, and How
1t Turned Out.
Quite an amusing as well as unique trial
came off a few days ago at Glenn Springs,
S. c.. which afforded no little fun for the
guests assembled and all concerned. The
charge in the indictment was flirting" with
two young ladies the same day. Mr. N. of
Columbia was the defendant Miss MEG. of
Charleston and Miss g. of Columbia were
the prosecutors. The jury was composed
Of twelve ladies, and Hon. Richard Dozier
Of Georgetown, S. c., presided as Judge
The attorneys were: Colonel Stobo Farrow
and Thomas Boutwell, Butler, OF Union, for
the prosecution and Mr.. James Gourdin Of
Berkeley for the defense.
The first witnesses examined were the
two young ladies, Misses MEG. and G. re-
spectively. Their replies to leading ques-
tons were adroitly made. and the point
evaded with the skill and intelligence of
trained lawyer. A vein of wit and humor
ran through their, evidence. which caused
good deal of laughter and merriment.
The third witness for the prosecution
was DR.. +. of Columbia, who said that he
had known the defendant for the past
forty years." and that according to his
knowledge he considered the said defend
ant an adept at flirting, and could get
there with both feet"
The only witness for the defense was the
ton OF his offense the irresistible charms
and exquisite loveliueSs and beauty of the
fair prosecutors.
His attorney brought forth the plea of
emotional insanity. and appealed to the ten
der mercies OF the Jury. The Judges charge
was full and to the point, bearing upon Ger
tain points relating to the violation Of con-
tracts and other sacred obligations.
The jury after a few moments rendered a
sgerdict of guilty" which, by the way. is
usual with South Carolina jnries of the
present day. The Judge then turned to the
prisoner and requested him TO stand and say
why sentence should not be passed upon
him. He stood with bowed head and plead.
ed his cause very feelingly and said, among
other things, that so great IS the charm OF
these fair ladies and so exquisite their love-
illness and beauty, that il his Honor, the
Judge, would 90 with them three days in
succession and not make love to b0th-to
one IN the morning and the other in the
eVening-he would submit without a MUIR
mur to the severest sentence the Court saw
nj 10 impose upon him."
Inc tender appeal caused laughter and no
douDt Drought forth feelings of sympathy,
especially from the young men, for both of
the young ladies' are very pretty, bright and
ihlellgent, the one from Charleston blonde
with SG1t pretty gray eyes, and the one
from the capital brunette of the most nro1
nounced type, with beautiful brown eve
which Sparkles like diamoad.
Tine Court sentenced him to nav fna of
twenty-five pounds of candy within five
days.
Thus closed one Of the most unioue and
enterprsing trials in the State.-CharIeston

THOUGHTFUL FOR A YOUTH.

Sorry to Make Trouble, but He Needed a
Few Glasses OF Water.
SanftherZ was a student at one OF our
leading colleges and boarded during the
term and in the vacation with a widow to
whom he had been recommended on his first
arrival. He was the only boarder, and his
landlady and her daughter. who did the gen.
eral h0usework, looked upon him as the
center and paragon of all the virtues. In
fact, il was subject of comment between
mother and daughter that they would take
his weekly pay with better heart if Sanft-
herr only gave Them little more trouble.
Such being his disposition. it was a matter
OF some surprise when he came to the top of
his landing one morning and called softly
down the stairs:
Mrs Bengel? Miss Mary, please?"
The latter heard his voice, and going up
in flutter of establishment saw him stand
ing at his room door.
Pm very sorry for troubling you. Miss
Mary, but wont you kindly bring me glass
of water?"
"of course; Mr.. Sanftherz, with tie great
est pleasure"
Down she went and returned with the de-
sired liquid.
Thanks" Thereupon he returned to
his cham Der, but scarcely had the girl
reached the lower floor when he again
called her and requested, with confused
blush at the Inconvenience no was causing,
that she bring him another glass of water.
This was likewise brought up and the
previous thanksgiving was repealed. On
this occasion, however, she had hardly
moved from the spot when he once more
came out and repeated his former request.
All wonderment, she once more filled the
glass, but as he instantly reappeared after
taking II into the room and begged her to
fill it up again, she couldn't contain herself,
and had to inquire the object of SO much
water.
The red flush of painful embarrassment
rushed over his face and brow. That he
should trouble anyone so much that they
must bother themselves this way about him
drove the steel of anguish to his gentle soul.
But MS very meekness of spirit forced him
to answer. painful as it was:
Wen, you see, Miss Mary. my room is on
