the author of the tobacco trust
bill has forever settled his poll
tical aspirations. The people Of
this District will not want him
in Congress; they do not desire
any such q narrow minded,
ambitious fellow to act fer them
in any legislative body. Failing
to pass his homestead bill, and
seeing that it had cooked his
political goose, he thought he
would tackle tobacco interests
and hence be tries TO slip
through Tie legislature a bill
that would ruin the tobacco in
terest Of North Carolina. The
people will set down on him and
squalsh him forever. Isl

The most remarkable case of a jury
standing OUT against what seemed IN
REPUTABLE testimony. and all through the
resolution of one man, occurred before
Chief Justice Dyer. He presided at
murder trial in which everything went
against the prisoner, who on his part
could only say that on going to work in
the morning he had found the murdered
man dying, and tried to help him, whereby
he had become covered with blood: but
when the man presently died. he had
come away and said nothing about it,
because he was known to have had
quarrel with the deceased, ana feared that
he might get into trouble. Tie hayfork
with which the man had been murdered
had the prisoners name on it. In other
respects his guilt appeared to be clearly
established. and the chief justice was
convinced of it, but the jury returned
verdict of Not guilty"
This was Chief Justice Dyer's case. and
ne put some very searching questions to

BOARDING His Marnie.

DR.. Glynn, a benevolent but eccen-
cric physician of Cambridge, England,
was once consulted by a poor woman
about her only son. too i'll to be brought
to the doctors office. The maternal
anxiety so affected the doctor that he
went several times to see the boy.
though the roads were almost impass-
able for a carriage, and supplied him
with bark and port wine at his own
expense.
The boy recovered, and one morn
ing the mother entered the doctors
room, bringing a large wicker basket.
'Wle can't get no rest. DOCTOR" said
she. 'for thinking Of the trouble you
have had, and so my boy this morning
resolved to send you his pet magpie."
The doctor looked at the bird, re-
marked that he was a very fine fellow,
and then continued:
L am very thankful to your son, and
very proud of his present. but 1 am
good deal from home and my servant
is careless fellow and I am afraid
that he might forget to feed him.
must therefore request you to keep
him for me and I will allow you a shil-
ling a week for his board as long as
he lives"
The old woman accepted the good
mans thoughtful suggestion and was
paid the first months board in ad-
vance.-Youth's Companion.

Lucy stone.

Lucy Stone, like many women who
are authors or actresses or musicians,
preferred always to be known by her
maiden name. though she had a lady
like preference for the word Mrs, :"
and did not like to have it omitted
Always sensible and accurate she made
sure by legal advice that Lucy Stone,
wife of Henry 3. Blackwell" was a
valid signature, and thenceforth al
ways used it. She held the merging Of
the wifes name to be a symbol of the
old common law attitude of subsection,
and so made her protest against it.
She. however, admitted that it was
difficult to carry this protest beyond
one genera tion,- and so acquieSced in
her daughters name, Alice Stone Black
well. To the marriage institution she
held firm allegiance and was strongly
opposed to the free love doctrine, SO
called, when there was an unsuccess-
full attempt to Intervene this with the
woman suffrage movement. The cele-
brated protest signed by her and her
husband at her wedding did not relate
in the least to the validity of the per-
manent and legal union, but only to
the unequal rights conferred by other
laws upon the husband. One thing
which made it easier to call her by her
maiden name was the terseness and
brevity of that name itself; its kindly
and homely simplicity seemed to be-
long distinctly to her and indeed, to
most of her acquaintances, she was
simply Lucy.'-Harper's Bazaar.

Barmaids are more numerous in Lon

employed in hotels, the American sys-

barmaids are employed except in no.

proportion of women employed in pub

of los hours a week for S125 a year and

A VARIED CAREER.
The Late Chas. r.. Thorne Ran the
Gamut of Fun and Trouble.


Perhaps few actors of the present day
have so romantic a life as Charles
Robert Thorne, and to his kindness as
manager many of the men and women
now famous on the stage owe their first
advancement. He was born in this
city in 1914 He made his debut at
the Park theatre here in 1880, playing
Octavian in THE Mountaineers and
for more than fifty years he remained
on the stage, playing in all parts of
the world and in all kinds of parts.
cess, and the dramatic records are full
of his triumphs here, in San Francisco,
in Panama, in Australia, in England,
in China and in India. He was the
| leading man of the best theatres here
| long before the present generation was
born, and he played in the support of
! all the great actors Of the past. On
the road his experience ran the whole
gamut of fun and frolic, of trouble and
disaster of, disappointment and de-
feat, of wonderful success and great
pecuniary return. Once in Panama he
was left for dead; again he was kept
a captive by South Americans; in the
days of 40 he was feted and show
cred with Jumps Of gold in California;
liC DCSSGu illS way IiIOuSu I,
he was chased by a mob in Sydney,
and he rode in triumph on an elephant
in India In this city he was at differ
ent times the manager of the Chatham
theatre and of the Aston Place opera
house. His sons, the eldest of whom,
Charles R. Thorne, jr., the talented
actor whose successes at the Union
Square theatre and whose untimely
death are well remembered; Edwin F.
Thorne and William Thorne. all inher-
! tied in some degree their fathers abil-
lily.
! Mr.. Thorne was married twice. His
first wife was Miss Maria Ann Me-
slayer, an actress whom he met and
married in 1880 in Richmond, Va. With
her he lived happily until she died in
| 1881. Two years later not the least ro-
mantle event of his life occurred when
he married Mrs. Sarah Stark, theat-
rical manageress and the widow of the
late tragedian. James Stark. Their
wedding took place in San Francisco
in September, 1888, and since then he
has lived in that city, although he has
paid several visits to the east to visit
his hosts of friends in the profession
