Changed His Opinion of the Jury.

A gentleman who served on a jury that
tried a prisoner defended by General
Henry Morgan tells a good one on that
counselor. In his speech in arguing the
case, General Morgan complimented the
jurors highly, telling them that he Sc
lected them specially for their intelli-
gence. The jury was not out five mill
utes before a verdict of guilty was
returned, whereupon General Morgan
exclaimed, They are the worst set of

AMUSEM MEN rs.
Redmond's "The Paymaster."

This melodrama which gained wide
reputation and made much money for
its author, Duncan b. Harrison, did SO
because it was one Of, If not the first, to
introduce tank upon the stage. So
far as Its construction is concerned,
there is no occasion to note anything
new. The story and plot has been told
upon the stage time and again. There
is IN the present production . CON-
mendable effort to surround the play
with suitable and attractive scenery.
The set representing the prison in the
back ground and the river of real wa
ter in the front was very effective and
positively thrilling when the hero
leaped from the window above into the
water. The play has some
coed climaxes and many of
the situations are unusually
interesting. The company is headed by
Charles Maubury who enacts Robert
with consistent force and earnestness.
Beatrice Constance. as Ethel, imposes
sweetness, delicacy. tenderness, pathos,
tirmness, IN fact distinctly dizziness ali
of the attributes OF the noble and true
woman; character which is sure to
command sympathy as portrayed by
her. The other characters are cared
for by PLAYERS who compose q cast
which averages we'll with the companies
seen In this theater. The first matinee
will be gwen today.

Narston almost whispered, as he took
her hand.
With q short good night 10 both he
left Miss Alexander and Washington

Washington took the chair Marston
had vacated, and with the familiarity of
an old friend drew it nearer that of the
young woman.

Wheelington coughed significantly and
laughed.
"Indeed?' he said briefly.
Tell me" she urged, "now that's
real nice big brother" and she took his
hand caressingly in hers.
But didn't tell him anything" he
insisted. without making any violent
effort to take his hand away from hers.
"That is" he said after moment, mot

"Oh, bat it must have been . great

"Pshaww she exclaimed. snatchins

two which could possibly have had any

She jumped up from her chair and
walked across the piazza, where she
stood against the rail pulling . honey

She crushed the flower under her foot

NEw YORK LEE INSURANCE.


New York Mail aud Express: Those
VINO ought 10 know, anu doubtless do

OF the New York Life Insurance COM
pany's trustees upon the action To be
taken concerning the recent report OF
Superintendent Pierce will recommend
that the present administration be sus.
taIned--in effect declare an expression
of confidence IN President Beers and
his management OF the company. 1t
IS further stated that the company will
IN the proper time and manner con-
tribute It's defense TO the controversy,
and that the public will do we'll 70 sus-
pend the final augment until 1t has
learned that Ia this case, as all others,
there are two sides. Many queer ru-
mors are current IN insurance circles
concerning the campaign against the
New York Life, and 10 Is to be hoped,
In the interest OF simple truth. that
some of the stories may be tested by
the facts. 1t issaid, for example, that
large sums of money have been paid
for the newspaper space which
has been used against the com.
paay; that the Pierce and Shan.
non report, which was certainly
IN newspaper and other insurance
offices, the other day, before it reached
the New York Life, was written by a
prominent Official OF another company,
anu that facts favorable to the COM
pany in some of the matters under in
vestgatIon were deliberately ignored.
One insurance president declared. the
other day, that were it his company he
would like nothing better than to chai-
lenge and refute the Plerce-Shannon
report, and that there wasn't a mercan.
tile house in the world which, admit.
ting all the report alleges, could show
a record so creditable and honorable as
the New York Life. with assets OF one
hundred and twenty millions. unques-
toned and unlimited credit, and a clear
surplus over all liabilities of nearly fif-
Teen millions. Should the real actors
IN this seric-comic drama ever be made
known, it is morally certain that some
queer company and rather embarrass-
ing situations would be exposed.
