THE BOSTON RIVALS.

The third entertainment in the Y. NJ. c.
A. course was very largely attended by an
apprecative audience.
While not perhaps fulfilling all the claims
made for this organization, the members
NAV fairly be classed as finished artists, all
of them.
As was anticipated, Mrs. Southwick was
the bright, particular star of the evening,
and it is perhaps not fulsome praise to say
that scarcely any artist has so fully met
every requirement as she. Her delineation
of the boat race on Saranac Lake has new
er been excelled in fine touches of dramat-
ic power, while the soft dreamy "lullaby-
ing of the negro "mammy' was given
with the utmost delicacy. Miss Hamlin
has a rich, powerful voice, but in the minds
of most hearers it is sadly marred by an
eyer-present tremolo, which, while tolerat-
ed in an organ, is not pleasing in the hui
man voice. OF Mr.. Winternitz, the violin
list, only praise can be spoken. His stage
presence is dignifed and his "bowing"
is phenomenal if his youthful appearance
does not misrepresent his age The ac-
cOmpanst, Mr.. Conant, was all that could
be desired either by artists or audience
An aside" on the Above.
1t is pity that the big hats, if worn at
ALL cannot be left at home at such times.
Query; Would the ladies think it good
manners for the gentlemen to erect great
screens i'm front of them and shut of all
sight of the stage? Ladies please wear
honnets of any kind, but leave off the great,
annoying hats. Many a neck was made
lame by constant bobbing about to catch a
sight now and then of artist or stage!

Georgia, in lecture delivered in several
Southern States, gives the following inter
esting information regarding woman's
connection with the worlds cotton in
dustry.
The most remarkable invention of our
age, in its industrial, social, and political
inhuence-the cotton-gin-owesi its origin
to a woman, Catherine Greene, an adopted
daughter of Georgia, wife OF Gen. Greene,
of Revolutionary memory. The cotton
gin heads the list of sixteen remarkable
American inventions which have been
adopted 10y the world.
Mrs. Greene conceived the idea OF the
machine and intrusted its construction
To Eli Whitney, then boarding with her.
The wooden teeth, at first tried, not doing
their work well, Mr.. Whitney wished TO
abandon the machine altogether; but Mrs.
Greene, whose faith in ultimate success
never wavered, would not consent; she
suggested the substitution of iron wire.
Within ten days from the first conception
of Mrs. Greene's idea, "a small model was
completed, so perfect in its construction
that all succeeding gins have been based
upon II. This invention produced an
extraordinary increase i'm the culture of
cotton. Not only did the laneuishing in
dustries OF the South receive a sudden and
stable impetus, but every part of the
world felt the influence Of this woman's s
thought. But Eli Whitney carries of the
nOnOfs OF TINS great achievement, simply
because. in Mrs. Greenc's day, IL was n
thing unheard of for woman Co patent
her own ideas. The patent was taken out
i'm his name, and the world of trade still
remains largely in ignorance of the fact,
that his share In the invention was solely
a mechanical one.
President Bynes points out that n SINH
lar instance has happened in the case OF
Miss Louise Mclaughlin, the American
inventor Of underglaze painting on pot
terry Having explained her process free
~ for the benefit OF all artists, a calcu-
lating individual stepped in and patented
it in his own name, thus prohibiting even
its inventor from using the fruit Of her
own geniusl
A little more self-wisdom on the part Of
one sex, might beget "A trifle more of mag
nanimity in some portions OF the other,
aud thus do away with that little stinging
sense of injustice, which is an uncomfort-
able tenant In any heart.

TEARS WON THE CASE.
They Were woman's Tears. and the Los
ing Lawyer Won a wife.

II Is "A strange story TO come from the
courtroom. One Of the ex-judges in At
lanta tells the Story. The real names OF
the parties are not given, for the hero and
the heroine are living In Atlanta today,
surrounded by many interesting and bright
children.
Some years ago very important case
was being tried in the superior court. The
title TO some valuable property was being
tested, and many thousand dollars were
involved. One of the lawyers engaged
In the case was middle aged mana
bachelor-who was regarded as one OF
the best attorneys at the bar. The case
had progressed up to certain point where
the bachelor lawyer, we will call him Mr..
Jones, felt certain that he had the case
won. Even his opponents showed that
their case was weakening. But there was
one more witness TO be examined. Upon
this witness testimony IL was expected TO
turn the tide and change the complexion
Of the case. After few moments OF con
ference the opponents Of Mr.. Jones called
20 the sheriff.
"Let Miss - come in"
A little later there was the rustling OF n
woman's skirts. and the witness took the
stand Mr. Jones leaned forward when tho
first question was asked, aud he looked at
the woman in the chair He leaned farther
forward and opened his eyes a little wider.
There sat the loveliest vision OF sweet,
pure womanhood his eyes had ever beheld.
Even the judge, he says so himself, had to
forget the case for n few moments as he
gazed at the beautiful woman. The jury
and everybody else in the courtroom kept
their eyes on the enchanting picture. But
the bachelor lawyer did more-he feasted
his eyes upon the loveliness before him.
The examination went on. In a low
voice, as sweet as enchanting music to Mr..
Jones, the lady witness gave her testimony.
What she said helped Mr.. Jones opponent
wonderfully, but "A little shrewd cross
questioning would have upset 1t. Mr..
Jones. as force of habit, thought of this
as he sat there half dazed.
"The witness is with you"
Mr.. Jones heard the words. AS he lis.
tened to the direct examination he had be.
come angry because this beautiful witness
was not his instead of belonging to the OPP
posite side. But he must do his duty TO
his client. Besides. so much devolved on
the case. He would turn his eyes away
and ask the necessary questions. He
would He had risen to his feet and in
spite of himself his eyes met the beautiful
blue eyes for the first time, and there were
tears in them. She was frightened.
"You may come down."
Mr.. Jones spoke the words. He made a
fine speech when it came time to make his
argument. And he lost the case.
"If it hadn't been for that lady witness" !"
said the judge, "or il Mr.. Jones had not
failed to cross question her, he would have
won the case. That was my opinion at the
time"
"And the sequel'" he was asked.
"Oh, it was IA case of love at first sight
on the part of Mr.. Jones. He lost no time
in making the lady's acquaintance, and
she married him. am told that there
never was a couple married in Atlanta
that loved each other more deyotedly."-

In the city the vast majority of house

their coffee grinder. The grocery mans
