ONCE AN ACTOR, t
Then Representative and Senator.

NANTAsKET, Mass, Aug. 9.-Hon.
Gideon Haynes, formerly warden of the
Charlestown state prison, died here yes
terday.
Mr.. Haynes was born in Sudbury, April
81, 1916. He was once representative
from Waltham, and was in the state sen
ate in 1857 and 1858, was a member of
the firm of Genetoso Estrella, Gueiros &
Haynes of Rio Janeiro.
He was appointed warden of the state
prison March 81, 1858, and served in that
capacity until Dec. /, 1871. He was one
of the first to advocate the idea of re-
formatory, and made it a study for
almost lifetime.
It twas due to Mr.. Haynes idea that
many changes for better discipline and
order at the prison were inaugurated,
and during the whole of his administra-
ton there was an absence of strikes, re-
volts and assaults.
He was at one time an actor of consid-
cradle merit. When the Lady of
Lyons" was brought out at the old
National theatre in 1885 or '36 he was
cast as Gaspar, and of the original COM
pany that appeared there only remains
today Wyzeman Marshall.

Dollars by the Carload.

New York, August 9.-The treasury
train from San Francisco with $40, 000, 900
in gold fresh from the mint arrived in
this city this morning with everything as
safe as when it started on it's journey. 1t
is said the first delivery will be made to
the sub-treasury in this city.
AS soon as the gold train had been
switched to the siding nearest to Mad
ison avenue the work of shipping the
treasure to Wall street began. The box
es were landed by the railroad company.
On each side of the doors of the treas
ure cars stood guard armed with two
revolvers and Winchester rifle, who
kept sharp lookout that nobody ran off
with any of the boxes of gold which
weighed quite as much as one could
handle with ease. Each wagon carried
80 boxes and carried two armed guards
on the front seat and one on the rear
step. They were unloaded at the rear
of the sub-treasury. All the police from
the Church street and Old Slip police
stations were called out to keep back the
immense crowd. 1t took all the after
noon to finish the transfer.

The Portlands Gain An Easy Victory b.
Heavy Hitting.

The Woonsockets tried to retrieve
themselves in yesterdays game, but it
was no use. Our heavy hitters waded
right into Sullivan and obtained nine
teen hits with a total of twenty-seven,
while Carey kept the visitors down to
five singles and one home run, made by
O'Brion over the left field fence. Kloba-
danz got in another one of his homers
over right field fence.
In the last of the seventh innings ely
mer put the third man out by catching
Ladd's pop up fly and Immediately after
the ball had settled into his hands he
tossed it off to Rogers. This gave
O'Brion chance to kick, as he declared
that it was not an out. Finally the UNI
pire put him out of the game and Kiley
took the first baseman's place.
The Woonsocket's three runs were
made by O'Brion's home run in the sixth
and three singles and base on balls in
the eighth. Attendance 700. The score

THE CUTTERS.
Are as Firm as the Granite They
Handle.
ESPECIAL to the Press.1

lSpeCldi 10 tilc IIOco.i
RockLAND, August 9.-The Associated
Press despatch in the morning papers to
the effect that the granite cutters in this
vicinity are becoming restless and grumb-
ling at their condition aroused storm of
indignation here. Your correspondent
has talked with number of leading I'M
ion men tonight and they are emphatic
in their denial of every statement in the
Associated Press agents alleged inter
view. The workmen in this city have
not been assessed a single dollar since
the lockout began. Nor have they been
willing to accept cent of the strike
money.
The men, such of whom as are not
working at union jobs have secured EN-
ployment elsewhere, and need with them
is utterly, unknown at Finalhaven and
Hurricane, where nothing; but non-unlen
men and scabs are employed. The un-
ion men are receiving strike pay regular
ly and have not on the contrary been as
sessed. The only case where an assess
ment is made is when workmen are en-
gagged on long union job, and can easily
afford to contribute small individual pay
ments. The men, while hopeful of an
early settlement are as firm as when the
lockout began, and express the determi-
nation not to yield an inch. Nearly sixty
non-union men and scabs arrived on this
mornings boat from Boston. The ma
iority were Swedes and Russian Firms.
Fifteen were sent to Hurricane Island
and twenty-three to Vinalhaven.
The remainder were left In a sorry
plight. When they landed on the wharf
they were penniless, their sole possess
ions being the remains of their tickets
from Boston to Vinalhaven. The ticket
fares were made out to the Bodwell
Granite Company, but that firm denies
all knowledge sof the men. They were
taken to the overseer of the poor, who
saw that they were supplied with break
fast and dinner, and tonight they were
reshipped to Boston.

With Smith and Bingham was an I'M
known woman who, it is alleged, repre-
sented herself as Miss Mary A. Hayden
of Columbus avenue, who owns dwell
ing on that thoroughfare. 1t is through
this woman's PRESERVATION of Miss Hay
den, it is charged, that Smith and Bling
ham secured the money as a mortgage

DEATH OF EDITOR FRANTZ.

Col. A. j. FrantZ, the veteran editor
of the Brandon Republican, died at his
home in Brandon Tuesday morning
about o'clock. He had been in fail
ing health for years, and for the past
two or three weeks had been too ill to
leave his home. On Tuesday morning,
however, he felt greatly improved, took
walk in his yard and spoke of going
down to his office. but on returning to
the house, he sank into a chair and
soon expired.
Col Frantz was one of the old land
marks of the Mississippi press, having
edited his paper, the Brandon Republi-
can, almost continuously since 1852
forty years. From 1870 to 1879 his
paper had the largest circulation of
any in Mississippi and was widely
quoted. AS journalist he was type
peculiar to himself and the last of his
kind. Though like all men he made
his mistakes and had his faults, he pos
sessed certain strongly marked traits
of character which should ever chal-
lenge admiration and respect. These
were his genial social disposition, his
undying loyalty to his friends and prin-
ciples, and the courage to speak his
honest convictions on any and all oc-
casions, without stopping to count the
cost. For these the writer, though of,
ten differing with him and at time the
object of his keenest shafts of sarcasm
and invective, admired him while liv
ing and respects his memory in death
After life's fitful fever, may he SLEEP
well.

Pursuant to resolution, both branch
es of the Legislature adjourned sine
DE last Saturday at o'clock p. m.
The principal work of the session
was the adoption of the new Aunotat-
ed Code. In spite of the abuse and
criticism heaped upon it, the LEADER
believes its work, taking X all in all.
will compare favorably with former
Legislatures. We believe the majority
were over economical in their ideas, as
evidenced by their cutting official sala-
ries, reducing appropriations and re-
fusing to purchase Penitentiary farm,
but in view of the extremely hard
times, this was most natural, and il
they erred at all, they erred on the
safe side.
The LEADER today publishes the act
adopted on the last day of the session
to provide for printing the new Code
and putting into immediate effect GER
tain important chapters. The Code as
a whole will not take effect until the
first day of November.
