THE "sLIND TOM CASE.
Mrs. Elsie Bethune Charged With Con-
tempt Of Court.

From the Baltimore Sun.
New York, Dec. 26. - Before Judge
Truax, in the superior court chambers,
to-day an application was made to com
pei Mrs. Elsie Bethme, the legal guard
ian of Blind Tom" the pianist and mus
ical prodigy, TO show cause why she
should not be punished for contempt of
court.
Blind Tom" is well known all over the
country. At the time of the emancipa-
tion of the slaves he was owned by John
c. Bethune, of Virginia. The family,
aware of the negro's genius, decided TO
retain him, Notwithstanding the fifteenth
amendment. The supreme court of Vir-
ginia, on account of Blind Toms" in
trinity, decided that he was TO remain
the property of the Bethunes forever.
Col Daniel p. Rowland, Washington
lawyer, endeavored TO get the negro out
of the hands of the Bethunes, but before
that could be accomplished Mrs. Elsie
Bethune succeeded in being appointed
''Blind Toms' guardian. Col Rowland
died, and as his bill for legal services in
behalf of the musical genius was not paid 4,
Mrs Irene Ackerman, of Washington,
brought suit against Mrs. Bethune for the
fee, amounting to 81, $40. Mrs. Alderman
won her suit and the court ordered the
money to be paid out Of the money earned
by blind Tom" In that action Mrs
Bethune swore she had no money result
ing from her wards earnings. Mrs. Irene
Alderman claims that Mrs. Bethune has
$4,000 I'm real estate resulting from
"Biind TOMS" musical productions, hence
the contempt proceedings.
Judge Truax reserved his decision.

"Ah, good mornin', parSonl Another

Then he nodded his head significant

ONE WOMAN'S SACRIFICE.
A Gracious Act of Politeness That Was
Appreciated.

ApPreSiateC'
We have all read and admired in our
school readers the klngly courtesy
which drank from a saucer to set at
ease an untutored guest who knew no
other way to secure his broth, says the
New York Times. At woman's lunch
con the other day one of the company
told how this act of feudal monarch
had been paraphrased by modern
queen-an American woman.
1T was" said the relator, several
years ago when we first moved here.
At that time persistent bonnet wearing
was not in vogue in the smaller towns,
although in New York even then the
custom was well established. Soon
after my arrival was invited to a
church entertainment, and was cha
grined, on reaching the dressing room,
to find every woman except myself in
dressy bonnet which she did not lay
aside.
"Perceiving my own blunder Instant
ly, it was with a keen sense Of embar-
rassment that |, perforce, put off my
knitted 'fascinator' and faced the pros
pect of spending the evening among
strangers singled out by my unfortu-
nate ignorance. Undoubtedly my face
displayed the modification felt, for
noticed lady looking at me several
times in a friendly, half-sympathetic
way. She was evidently well-lnown
and popular woman in the company,
for everybody greeted her with great
cordially, and you may fancy my sweet
relief when this woman, whose heart
was as tender as her face was lovely,
fused about, famed herself conspicu-
ously, and finally declared the rooms
were going to be unbearable, and she
believed she would leave her bonnet up
stairs, it will be so much more COM
Portable She must have sighed to put
off the dainty little article which COM
pleted her handsome toilet, and no
ticed her hair, dressed for bonnet,
needed considerable arranging to be
presentable without one, but am sure
her heavenly crown got an especially
brilliant jewel that night for her most
womanly succor of sister in distress"

THE WOOD THRUSH.

have heard the robin in the NAPLES singing,
Every ear delighting with his rollicking song
OF May;
When the elms were leahng, saw the oriole
swinging,
And flashing like jewel as he caroled at
break Of day.
Heard the warbler trilling his glad love song,
filling
Earth and sky with the burden OF his wonder
full roundelay.
But when the sun in sinking shed farewell
glory,
kissing hill and tree top witha touch Of gold
in It's flight,
And slow the shadows deepened in the forest
hoary,
The sensitive May flowers closing, It was a
fine delight
Tasks and playthings linging-to listen to the
singing
OF the tawny wood thrush hidden in the thicket
beneath the height
Not for kings and princes would he sing more
gayly
Than for me, the urchin, angling in mountain
brook;
Money could not buy the trills he practiced
daily,
Nor was ever such music written in book
Yet II he caught one gazing or heard my
rapturous praising
With startled note Of warning would he fly
to distant nook
Many an oratorio, opera and ditty
OF star and prima donna from lands far over
the sea;
Chorus, glee and solo in rural church and city,
And strains Of harp and piano have been
waited oft TO me-
Yet sweeter far, the swelling notes Of the wood
thrush, telling
His love in thicket and valley with exquisite
melody.

Tbe Mistakes of Mr., Davfes.

MR. EDITOR: I think that you will
admit that great allowance should be
made for the mistakes Of a gentleman
like Theo. II Davies, Esq, who resides
on the opposite side OF the globe, and is
almost as much "out OF touch" with the
actual state OF things here, as Rip Van
Winkle was when he returned to his
native village. after his twenty years nap
in the Catskill mountains. 1t is said that
some years after the end OF the late civil
war in the United States, q North Caro-
lima mountaineer came to town with q
negro to sell, having never heard OF the
emancipation proclamation
But to say nothing of Hawaiian affairs,
Mr.. Davies seems to be ignorant Of the
parallel series OF events, which have been
taking place in Egypt, in which his own
government has played the leading part.
To state that the right OF revolution has
been invoked here merely ''to enable our
people to contend against hostile tariffs
in another country" betrays an amazing
misconception of the vital interests at
stake in the present crisis, in comparison

sink into insignifcance.
What shall We say Of one who talks OF
practical politics" in one paragraph,
and in another sets forth his ideal OF Ha-
waii, as she may be, with It's four points,
as possible OF realization under existing
conditions
Where does he find his Sovereign who
would never reward personal fsvorities
with public office" not even Marshal? ?
Are his Statesmen Loyalty pledged to
Hawaiian independence" such men as
Peterson, Colburn & Co.?
Are his "home-born citizens true to the
constitution as it is, who refuse to listen
to those who would treat with hostility
or treachery either their sovereign or
their fellow citizens" the constituents of
Bipikane, Bill White and Navahi?
Are his ideal ''foreign-born citizens,
who would be absolutely loyal to the
nation" ETC., represented by Messrs.
Kenyon, Norrie, Pratt & Co.
Would the mob which cheered the
passage of the Lottery bill, listen to his
missionary" talk about righteousness
being the life OF the land?" 10, it is not
that kind OF appeal that viii win their
sufrages. To save our country from ruin,
a very different line OF action has been
forced upon us by the irresistible logic OF
events, and if Mr.. Davies were here, he
would probably recognize the fact.
Respecting him, as an honorable gen.
tlemen, however misinformed, we regret
that his hasty letter, written during
Transatlantic voyage, six weeks ago,
should now be brought out by the organ
of Lost Cause, to expose him to ridi-
