Her Husband Lost His Life Making War

on England.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-The attempt
to blow up London bridge and to shatter
the house of parliament some eight years
ago had an interesting sequel Monday in
the bill which was introduced by Chip
man of Michigan to grant pension to
Mrs. Thomas LOmasney. He was a prom
inent Irishman in this country, with a
fondness for the O'Donovan Rosa style
of fighting. He went to London for the
express purpose of blowing up London
bridge and parliament and after the ex-
plosion under the bridge nothing was
found except shattered boat aud some
fragments of clothing.
Couldn't Prove His Death.
Mrs. Lomasney recently applied to the
pension office for a pension. claim
ing that her husband served in
the war, and was refused on the
ground that she could not prove her hus-
bands death. Mrs LomaSney, who has
not seen her husband since he babe her
goodbye and sailed for England, believes
that his life was lost in the explosion, and
has appealed for aid to Chapman, who in
troduced bill to grant her a pension on
the supposition that her husband is nc
longer alive.

COMPLIMENTARY TO NEW
LANDS.

Francis G. Newlands has laudable
ambition to represent the people Of
Nevada. He has not scattered his
money in destroying the souls and
bodies of men ny their purchase. On
the contrary, large portion Of the
State, especially Washoe county, the
only agricultural county OF any note
in Nevada, has evidence Of the distri-
button of his money for the benefit of
all. OH er counties have also been
made more prosperous by his liberal
OUTLAWS. His mining interests in
Storey county and other portions of
the State languish. The metal his
miners delve for is at such discount
that it casts a minor figure in the
commercial world. If Mr.. Newlands
should leach the halls of Congress it
will only be by the citizens of Nevada
placing him in such position after
weighing his demonstrated intentions
of good for their benefit. The miner
is appealed to by Mr.. Newlands be-
cause by the advance in the price Of
silver a greater number Of men will
be placed at work in bis group of
mines and their relatives and friends
be benefited. The merchant is asked
to favor the gentleman with his vote,
and il the gentleman is true to his in
terests he will cast vote for him, as
increased labor means a brisker
business and an increase Of prosper

PADEREwsKps DRIVER.
An Interesting Experience with Mary
land Hackman.


An interesting story IS told of
Paderewski when on his way TO play
one afternoon at Baltimore Shortly
before reaching the city he left the
train to buy some fruit and CHANGING
to find friendly Pole in the vender
OF fruit stopped to talk. and when he
returned to the station found the train
gone. He was perplexed to know
what to do, rs he was entirely unac-
quainted with that locality. and
besides knew what u tempest would
be raging when his agent failed to
find him on the train. CHANGING
about the station he caught the eye OF
a hackman standing near by who i'm
mediately accosted him with:
Carriage sirP"
Yes if you will drive me imme-
dlately to Baltimore without delay"
The hackman whistled. TO Bal
timore! Why. sir that fully fifteen
miles"
Never mind. / must be there Tor
concert Are you willing to whip
your horsesP" This OF course in
broken English.
The hackman grinned as he eyed
his two sorry specimens. oh they
can stand it. But where to- sir?"
At this the great artist looked puz-
zled. Why | don't really remem-
ber." Then Frightening up: oh.
l know; the opera house"
But there are eight or ten sir.
Which one?"
Well drive to a music store and
find out but don't stand there talk
ing"
The man whipped up his horses.
but the roads were poor and it was
some time before they reached the
city.
Arriving at the music store tho
hackman got out and marching in de-
manded: There's gent here as
wants to know wherc that piano man
is going to play-Paddyeski or some
thing"
"Paderewski? Oh. that concert 10
just around the corner at - opera

| time. and you can tell your gent it's

| Head' from the window no said ia

At sight of the photograph the
hackman stopped short and exclaimed:
And is it HIM is going 20 play?
Why. he's my gent in the carriage"
and rushing out he drove frantically
to the place designated. fortunately
in time TO prevent the audience from
dispensing.
AS Paderewski hurriedly paid him
his money the man hesitated and then
said awkwardly; please sir, like
a tune with the best OF them Could
l make so bold as to hear you playPH
The kindly face OF the great artist
beamed upon him in assent and they
went into the hall together side by
side. 1t is needless to say that there
was not one OF the vast audience so
generally astonished ana delighted by
what he heard that afternoon as Pade-
rewskfs hackman.

with you. and besides there was a
paragraph in several papers stating
that Trevanna was getting well and
had exonerated him.
That's what makes me fear Adrian
is dead " said Olive turning her pale
face toward him.
Dead !-nonsense. cried Teddy
hastily. why should he be deadP
He wouldn't commit suicide. it is I'M
likely he has met with an accident
and no one would harm him. for he
hadn't an enemy in the world"
mo that's true. Adrian had no
enemy, but there is q man who does
not like me- so out of revenge he
might harm Adrian"
"A man who does not like your"
repeated Teddy in surprise
Yes; Doctor Roversmire she
answered. coming up close to him aud
laying her gloved hand on his arm.
HE wanted to marry me- and re.
fused him because | loved Adrian.
Suppose he wanted to remove Adrian
from his path
The supposition Is too idle. But
suppose he did what then? DO you
think he would murder him?"
NO" she said In low voice.
''but DR. Roversmire is u theosophist
a believer in occult science. He
comes from India where they say
these people have strange. unholy
powers. What If he had lured Adrian
to his house at Hampstead and dis
integrated his body"
Teddy Rudall smiled at this for he
was matter-of-fact young man. very
sceptical OF the powers asserted to be
exercised by the theosophists.
That's lot OF nonsense you
know" he said lightly. That the
osophy is all bosh. I've been TO lots
OF their meetings and it's the same
kind Of rubbish as table turning and
mesmerism. You surely don't be-
lieve'in it."
Il did not. but since Adrian has
vanished so strangely confess feel
a little afraid"
LOT Doctor Royersmire?'
Yes; he called to see me last
week and from the way he spoke
feel sure he knows something OF
Adrian"
''At all events you may be sure
there is no disintegration business
about it. " said Teddy decisively for
these gentry can scatter their own
body to the winds but they can't do
it with any one else's."
but he might have got rid OF
Adrian by some other means?'
Adrian isn't the sort of fellow to
allow himself to be got rid OF easily {"
retorted RudalL soothingly. Come
Miss Maunders that wretched Indian
juggler whom remember having seen
here, has upset your nerves with his
mad talk. I'm certain Adrian is all
right and this D who is coming here
to-day will no doubt be able to tell us
where he is
Il hope So" began Olive. when
suddenly there came ring at the
door and they looked quickly at one
another
Here is the answer to your adver-
tisement " said Teddy, gayly. Now
then. Miss Maunders don't bother
your head about any theosophy or
supernatural interference. Wen soon
find out where Adrian is and give him
a good rating for making such fuss
over nothing
