THE G0LD-BoRDERED MIRROR
Mrs. Harrison Traces the History OF q
W htte House Ornament

Mrs. Harrison Traces the History OF .
W htte House Ornament.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-Mrs. Harrison
has made number of most interesting dis
coveries within the past year in regard to
pieces of furniture and articles used in the
state dining room, the result of her re-
searches having from time to time been
noted through these columns.
The latest thing in this line, and decidedly
one of more than usual interest to the pub
lie, is in regard to the gold -bordered mirror
lake which has figured as the central orna-
ment at countless numbers of State
banquets. All that has heretofore
been known in regard to it was
that it had been in use for this purpose far
back in the early days of the Government,
when state banquets were of less frequent
occurrences, though none the less cereinon-
ial affairs, than those of the present day.
From papers containing undoubtedly re-
liable information it has now been ascer-
tanned that the long mirror with its beauti-
full gilt bronze openwork railing, en-
bellished with figures, was purchased in
France by the United States Minister in
accordance with an order to the effect
from the first President of the Republic
Upon its arrival in this country the table
ornament was taken to Philadelphia and
first used by General Washington on the
occasion of the great State banquet at the
Presidential mansion in 1891.

Sunreme Court Decisions

In the Supreme Court yesterday Justice
Williams handed down decision in the
case of Henry and wife versus Klopfer, de-
fendant's appeal from the judgment Of the
Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny
county. an action brought to recover dam
ages resulting from an accident in ALE
gheny City, plaintiff in the lower court re-
covered $3.50 damages, and the Supreme
Court afirms the decision. In the case of
R, H. Childs e. al versus T A Gillespie ct
al, an appeal by plaintiffs from the judg-
ment in the Court of Common Pleas No /,
of Allegheny county, Justice Williams af-
frmed the decision of the lower court. This
case was to determine whether the plaintiff
had valid contract, known as an oil lease
with all the oil and gas upon 80 acres of one
side of one of the defendants (Schuyler's) .
farm, with the exclusive right to operate
upon the surface.

To Secure Fiizpatricks' Pardon.

An application will be made to-day to the
Pardon Board for commutation of the SEN
tence of death imposed on Patrick FItz-
patrick for the murder of Samuel Early.
Fitzpatrick's death warrant has been issued
and March fixed for the execution. When
he was convicted of murder in the first de-
gree and new trial refused it was supposed
that Fitzpstrick's death was a certainty.
He had 40 money or friends and his coun-
sci, j. McF. Carpenter and o. P. Scaife,
Jr., made no further move in the case and
it did not go to either the Supreme Court
or Pardon Board. Since death has
approached so close, however, Fitzpatrick,
who is a Catholic, has become devout and
some persons of the same religious faith
have interested themselves in his behalf
Money has been raised and Attorney w. j.
Brennan has been retained to present his
case to the Pardon Board in hope of having
the sentence commuted to imprisonment
for life. Yesterday Mr.. Brennan obtained
copy of the record in the case and to-day
will present it to the Pardon Board with a
petition for Communication.

HAD TOO MANY WIVES
W, q. Lewis Is Sentenced Four Years
and a Half for Bigamy.
NOT SURE OF HIS FIRST WEDDING.
Two Supreme Court Decisions on Alle-
gheny County Cases.
SPOKES FROM THE WHEEL OF JUSTICE

In Criminal Court yesterday Judge Por-
ter sentenced W. H. Lewis four years and
six months to the Western Penitentiary on
two charges-bigamy and perjury-pre-
ferred by Ellen Carlin, mother of Lewis
second wife. Last September Lewis came
to this city and secured employment in one
of the city mills as roller. Shortly after
his arrival he became acquainted with Miss
Ellen Carlin, daughter of the prosecutrix
in the case. The acquaintance developed
into love, which eliminated in the marriage
of the two by Magistrate Gripp. All
went well until Gertie Roman, of Martins
Ferry, put in an appearance and claimed to
be Lewis wife. When the mother of the
second wife learned Lewis had been married
before she brought the suit.
Lewis plead guilty 10 both charges and
when called before the bar yesterday to be
sentenced, said be did not know whether he
was married to the Roman woman or not.
He said that when he awoke one morning
after being on a spree at Martins Ferry he
found the woman in his room and she
claimed to be his wife. Gertie Roman told
different story. She said Rev. DR.. Brown
and others were at the wedding when they
were married. Judge Porter then SEN
teHced Lewis as above.
Nelson Sommers was convicted of feloni-
Gus assault and battery on oath of John
Puto, OF Braddock.
Samuel Abrams plead guilty to the charge
of illegal liquor selling in the Ninth ward,
Pittsburg.
Andrew Hudack was convicted of steal
ing three bags of coal from J. F. Hillman
Of Homestead, and was sent to the work
house for thirty davs
In the cases of Sarah Hood, Lizzie Wilson
and Sarah Wilson. charged with aggravated
assault and battery by Edith Pierce, a
verdict was rendered before Judge Kennedy
Of not guilty; but Sarah Hood was ordered
TO pay the costs. In the latter's cross-suit
against Edith Pierce, the defendant was
found not guilty, and the prosecutrix,
Sarah Hood was ordered to paw costs.
Samuel A. Nesbit was tried for false
pretense on oath of Theodore Weiss He
was acquitted and the costs divided.
Thomas Dugan, convicted of larceny, was
sent to the workhouse for eight months
