A DEATHBED CONFESSION.
Mrs. Boyd Rihed Letters and Secured Her
Husbands Conviction.


A deathbed confession made by woman has
added ncw chapter to a singular story which
has been developed through the investigation
conducted by post Office inspectors. Some two
years ago complaints were received at the de-
partment of the loss of registered letters in
c. rtain locality in North Carolina. In looking
the matter up the inspectors came to the con-
ciusion that the loss occurred in a small post
office known Bilesv lie, which was in charge
OF a Mrs. Mary Jane Boyd, who was the post
mistress. This is a little place on a star mail
route and is a center OF several similar routes,
over which the mails for the section of country
between Aibemarle and Salisbury pass. BY
means OF decoy letters the inspectors finally
narrowed down tie area of suspicion until it
conferred in the little Office at Rilesyile.
nal!y the Iostmistrrss was caught red
handed as she hanceh ont as change for stamps
purchased by one OF the inspectors some of the
uioney that had been sent in the decoy letters.
4; was ascer .aiied that she had been in the
hadn't OF rlfing registered letters Of the money
contents anu then restoring them to the mails.
Mrs. BOYD Was arrested, indicted and tried.
There was much sympathy felt for her be-
cause her husband was III the peuitentiary.
where he had been sentenced on "a charge Ga
sealing money. This fact as well rs thc fact
that she was a woman, had two small children
and was rather good looking appealed TO the
synpathies OF the North Carolina jury 80 effect
lively that Mrs. Boyd Was acquitted. Nesier-
day there was received at the Post 0;fice Depart
ment communication from that section Of
North Carolina which stated that Mrs. Boyd
had recently died. On her dea;hbed it WAS
stated that she confessed not only that she had
stolen money from the letters, but that she had
placed money IN the pockets of her husband,
which resulted IN his conviction of theft and
his sentence to the penitentiary
The motive in fastening upon her husband
saeh a crime WAS explained to be that she
wanted to get rid of him. In spite of his pro-
tesiations on the trial he was convicted. and
then the woman who had brought this disgrace
upon hira vas subsequently, arrested. but es-
capped the penalty of the law. and now after two
years she yindicates the good name of her hus-
band GA her dying bed and coniesses the crime
for which she eyaded punishment

Bland should 30 far have forgotten HIM
self and the true situation as TO endcavor to
mislead the public by such statement In
iustIfying his position Mr. Crisp said that when
the rules were being considered nc had in
caucus pledged to his party that no rule should
be reportei prohibiting iilibusterng or cutting
off dllalory motions excep: at the request and
desire OF II majority OF the Democratic menu
bers of the House. A minority OF the demo-
Gratis requested that time be fixed for the
| consideration OF the free coinage bill but max
ing reference therein to any change of tho
rule. In response to this request the commit
tee permitted three Jays. The Speaker said
thai. as we'll as he recollected, Mr.. Bland did
want to incorporate some limitation Of the
right Of the House to ilibuster, Or wanted
continuing order, but the committee deter
! mined that until the necessity for such a rule
was demonstrated they would not report it.
The bill was taken up and debated for three
days and finally saved from the table BY the
sting vote vi the Speaker. Mr. Crisp said
this tie vote was great surprise
to all parties, because when the orig
Ina! order was made it. was generally under
| stood that the majority in favor of free coinage
was 80 to ~. A majority Of the democrsts

demonstrated that they favored its passage.

| on the bill and prevent ilibustering, and, 80
| believing. he said TO Mr.. Bland that he had no
doubt the committee would report rule. He
| also said to Mr.. Blond that in mis- Judgment
! there had been sufficient flibustering to
demonstrate the impossibility of the passage
! OF the bill without rule to bring the House
| to direct vote. The Speaker also drew the
resolution introduced by Mr.. Bland, still believ-
| ing that those gentlemen who voted against
the bill were in favor OF forcing 4 direct vote
upon the measure. But after that time friends
OF the silver bill, as decided friends ~ Mr..
| Bland, said the Speaker, had come 70 him and
said they did not desire their votes against
| tabling the bill to be construed into Q request
that rule prohibiting ilibustering should be
| reported; that while they favored the free
coinage of silver and wanted to vote for it they
| opposed any rule in democratic House which
wonld cut on the right to flibuster.
THE Wish OF THE NAJoRrrY.
The Speaker said that upon this statement he
made some inquiry among other friends Of the
bill and found quite number who did not de-
sire the committee to report any rule to bring
the House to direct vote. Whercupon he
thought, in pursuance of this statement In the
caucus and in pursuance OF the idea upon

not the master Of tho House, that 1t wasXhis

A Post for Lord Lorne.

The Marquis of Lorne. eldest son of the
Duke of Argyle-Macallum More-and
husband of Queen Victoria's daughter
Princess Louise, has been made governor
of Windsor castle, post anxiously sought
for by both the Duke OF Teck and Prince
Henry of Battenberg. The duties are nil,
the salary $1,000 1t is well known in Eng
land that for some reason Lord Lorne is
not popular with the generality of his
wife's family, though the "neen is fond of
him. 1t has become the to jeer at
Lord Lorne in England a weak and in
competent person.
Had he not been brought to a certain ex-
tent within the fierce light that beats upon
a throne, it is likely that Lord Lorne would
have enjoyed the popularity which usually
comes to correct living, right thinking
and amiable nobleman in England. 1t is
true that he has not those qualities likely
TO set river afire, but he is far better than
the average man or nobleman. His royal
Drothers-in-law were so opposed to his ap-
pearing in conspicuous position in the
procession from ST. James palace to West
minister when the queen celebrated her jul
bilee that they mounted him on a bucking
horse that succeeded in unseating Lorne
before the procession had passed the palace
gates. They have snubbed him on every
possible occasion, and other people taking
the pattern from royalty have done the
same thing so far as they could And yet
Lord Lorne is a better and an ADLER man
than any of his wife's brothers.

The Oldest gunner in the United States

life was full of romance and adven-
lures. Born in 1917, on the Greek isle
of Ipsalia, he was made a homeless or
phan by the attack and massacre by the
Turks of the inhabitants of that island
in 1896 The bombardment of the Turks
by the old ConstitutiOn-"Old IronsideS"

he was among eleven boys who survived
and were brought away by that gallant
old vessel. He was brought home 10y

Later he was taken by Mr.. Marshall,
gunner in the United States navy, from
Lieutenant Randolph and by MIN taught
gunnery and pyrotechnics. At the age
of twenty he entered the navy as gun

afterward showed that the blood Of the
Greeks, famous at Marathon and Their

lived In his veins.-New York Ararad
