A PATIENT SUFFERER.

She ia ever and always the same patient
sufferer, trying as far as she can to brighten
the sadness of the Fresident and her chii-
dren by appearing TO feel better. Her
cough has stopped since the weakness of the
past two days has set In, and she is still tax
ing considerable nourishment.
The steady though slight depletion of
strength each day is now the most serious
feature OF the case and the one which ex-
cites most concern. President Harrison is
looking careworn. He has grown so nerv-
GUS, owing TO the terrible strain Of the last
few months, that his family almost compel
him 20 go out every day for walk or
drive. His sad face betrays more than it is
possible for his lips to utter

RARRIsoN's GREAr SORROW.

Mrs. Harrison's Condition Growing
Weaker With Every Day That Passes.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.-Aside from the
fact that Mrs. Harrison is a trife weaker
this evening, there is no material change to
note in her condition. As before stated In
these dispatches. Mrs. Harrison has been
growing grad ually weaker for several days
past, owing to the progress of the disease
and her left lung is now Involved.
OF course, in the progress OF this disease,
the patient is better one day and worse the
next. The condition of the patient fiuctu-
ates, and this has been so in the case Of Mrs.
Harrison. There has not been a moment of
the last few days not filed with anxiety for
the President and his family. So long as
Mrs. Harrison can take nourishment her
declining strength can be revived. From
one hour to another there is practically little
change manifested

home of the parties directly interested.
The Deacons are natives Of Boston, and

changed all this, and the gloomy old build

and the rank growth where once was a

the disgrace which the family has suffered
through the the mad act of Mrs. Edward
Parker Deacon. who was a daughter Of
Rear Admiral Baldwin. of the United
States navy.
Newport, too, hat resort of fashion and
beauty, is energetically discussing the de-
plorable affair, for the young couple had
many friends there, and it is still the home
of the stepmother of the SHINING wife. The
killing OF M. Abeille serves to make Amer
leans familiar with a type common to Paris.
1t is the dilletante, nuttering about the
members Of the butterfly set, a constant
menace to society. All the parties to this
tragedy are wealthy n all move in the
best circles of society, and the Deacon trial
therefore bids fair to attract unusual at
tention on both sides of the Atlantic and

they say, has been wrought 10y competition

the special session called for the purpose
of consider1ng the matter, refused to repeal
the convict labor law. A prominent leader

A condition of armed neutrality now pre-
walls in Briceville. Many persons fear that
it is but the calm which precedes the
storm. others think, and all hope, that
the matter may be adjusted without
trouble, but just what is to be the basis of
settlement no one seems able to suggest.
The people of Briceville are as unsentimen-
tai as can be imagined. Their ideas of
justice are based upon their own observa-
ton, which is naturally limited. The
men have a supreme contempt for fine
clothes, and the women wear few of the
adornments usually affected by their sex.
They are very obstinate, and do not seem
to know fear. For that reason particular
ly, most of the conservative people of
Tennessee believe in approaching the labor
problem in Briceville in the most delicate
n and in a spirit of concession.

she could, that she did not approve of his
seeing her daughter any more, and that he
would not be allowed to do so. He laugh

Such conditions do not apply to the life
record of Dunn. He was born in a cellar
at Manchester, England, sixty-six years
ago, and his parents stole because they
could get no work and didn't choose to
starve. Mike followed in their footsteps
as a result of association and environment
He had the same inducements to become
a thief that a bankers son has to engage
in fnancial pursuits.
He was arrested, logged and impris-

that on he p~ersevered in an outlaws career
until he had grown familiar with the jails
of nearly every civilized country. Thirty
five years of his life were spent in prison.
Then, in 1878, at the age of fifty-two, he
came in contact with respectable people,
and, influenced by the association, re

of his death he was an honest man and the
doer of much good. He expired at his

followed to his grave by a large number of
mourners. In his case, at least, crime was
not an inherited vice. he was glad to get
away from it when the chance presented

THAT was the commencement of an era
Of trouble. After midnight one night, her
father fancying he heard some one move
in the hallway, opened the door of his
DON and looked out. By the faint light
of the newell post lantern on the floor below,
he saw Kate, dressed, opening the front
door to go out. He called to her, but she
went on, seemingly without hearing him.
Before he could partly dress himself and
run down stairs she had disappeared.
Two hours later she returned. He met
her at the door and spoke to her. She
neither saw nor heard him, but walked on,
as II in a somnambulic sleep, to her room
and went to bed. The next morning she
was unconscious of having been out the
night before. A chambermaid, upon be
ing questioned, said that she had on sew
eral occasions found Miss Kate's shoes
muddy in the morning when she was sup
posed to have gone to bed early on the
night before.
"Mr. K took to carrying to his room
every night the keys of the front doc and Of
the basement door, 80 that she should not
be able TO go out. The second night he
did SO she was stopped and went into con-
WILSON'S Then she took to doing the most
devilish things in frances. Once she tried
to poison the entire family, the cook de-
tecting her in the act of putting ratsbane
into the coffeepot. She endeavored to
stab her father, indeed she did wound him
slightly. She slashed and ruined a val
liable oil painting; smashed n couple of
Japanese vases for which her mother had
paid $3.50, and even attempted to set fire to
the house,
suddenly those demonstrations ceased,
just when her father had about made up
his mind that placing her under restraint
In an asylum would be necessary. For ten
days or two weeks she seemed to be her old
self. Then, one night her brother-a lad
fourteen years old-who was up at his win
dow to shoot with an air gun a bowling cat
on a back yard fence, was amazed by seeing
Kate cross the yard, scale the fence, reach
a vacant lot and disappear. He ran to his
father with the information, but it was
then too late to give chase. She came back
in "A couple of hours, over the fence, through
the yard and the basement, and the next
day knew nothing about it. The night fol-
lowing her father watched where she went,
nearly five blocks away, to the Greeks

shoot the fellow then, as he probably would

A Down East Toll Bridge Sign.

A few old toll bridges down east bear
signs that perpetuate the memory of a
curious law. These signs proclaim that
all persons, ave "paupers, Indians and
clergymen," must pay toll in crossing
the bridge. The indulgence shown to
paupers and clergymen is easily under
stood from the practice elsewhere, but
why the Indians were exempted is not
so clear, unless, indeed, it was a recog-
