of explanation. He protested that the
cause of separation in no way affected
his wife'S character. He left Tennessee
and went among the Cherokees and
lived with them for three years. And

Cherokee wife. As to the last do NOT

are conceded facts.
Now. in Tennessee 1t was claimed
that as soon as the wedding party was
over, Gov. HOuston's wife told her hus-

marriage by her parents and that she
loved another. Houston thereupon said
that he would not compel her to live
with him, but he would give her d.

L heard very good story the other
night about Richard Mansfield and Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson which has never
been published. Mr.. Mansfield was in
London preparing for his American

| to meet Mr.. Stevenson and have thor
ough understanding in regard to the
matter. Accordingly, the next day he
sent note to Mr.. Stevenson asking for
an interview. Meet ME tomorrow at
10 a. m," wat the reply.
The next morning Mr.. Mansfield pre-
sented himself at the lodgings of Mr..
Stevenson. He was unfit to look out,
as he was suffering from a bad cold.
However, he felt that it would be I'M
proper for him to break the appoint
ment. He sent up his card to Mr.. Stey-
enson. In few moments the servant
came downstairs. "Mr. Stevenson will
see you presently"
In few moments q gentleman entered
the room. Mr.. Mansfield arose, think
ing he had met MI. Stevenson. He be-
gan to cough violently and sneezed sew
eral times. When he finished one of
his fits of sneezing he looked up and
said, "Oh, beg your pardon, thought
