Fi1cbinp From a bic Hotel.

Manager Boldt of the Hotel Waldorf is
about the busiest and most bothered man
in the United States at the present time.
Everybody In the country apparently wants
to be conducted on visit of inspection
through his hotel, and he hasn't employees
enough to attend to the visitors.
Mr.. Boldt has had good reason to know
that to some folks nothing is sacred. Visit
ors have taken all sorts of odds and ends
and then excused their conduct on the
ground that they were anxious to possess
souvenirs Some of them have even gone
so far as to deface the carvings of screens
and other furniture which cost a small for
tune.
Mr.. Boldt said yesterday he had taken
precautions to guard against this in the
future. The craze reached its climax few
DAYS ago when a couple of richly dressed
women lunched at the hotel and then
asked to be shown through the rooms. In
their rounds they took silver from the ta-
bles in the private dining rooms and any
thing else they could lay their hands upon,
going so far as to appropriate the napkins.
The women were detected in their SOU
venir hunt and promptly relieved of their
booty Manager Boldt, however, refused
to prosecute them. While they were very
handsomely dressed, he thinks they were
professional thieves.-New York Herald.

stevens to be Removed.

Although a reckless crowd Of citizens
and country people we're so incensed at
Solomon Stevens last Saturday at George.
town, who was charged with an attempt
to burn his property, that they were ready
to lynch him, YerYIdi6erent feeling pre-
walls now Indeed many people have be-
gun to place some weight in Stevens dec
larations of innocence and some even be-
lieve him innocent.
Stevens denies emphaically ever know
ing anything about the crime or scheme.
Wilson, his hired man who was first ac-
cused, also denies the first statements
made hy him and says, it is alleged that
he was forced to make them.
Detective Witsil heard ofthis last even
ing and went to see Wilson in Jail here,
taking with him the sworn statement
which he first made. Wilson began to
shiver and stammer something, and then
declared that the statement was true.
Although the theory first advanced, inn
plicating Stevens and Wilson may prove
to be true, there are other theories ad-
vanced now that neither prisoner knows
anything about the deed. Wilson is
half wit and but little evidence is given
to his statements by the most conserva-
tive citizens.
The newest theory is that the house
was robbed, as it was utterly destitute of
wearing apparel, jewelry and valuable
bed clothing when the neighbers broke
in to fight the fire. It might haye been
ransacked by thieves and then fired.
Through the efforts of his counsel,
Charles W. Cullen and R. c. White,
Stevens will probably be reno we'd to
Dover. Here proceedings for a writ of
habeas corpus will be commenced and, if
possible, Stevens will be released At
any rate he will be kept at Dover until
he excitement dies out completely.

They described the manner in which
Greenley drove to warren's house, how he
got out Of the carrisge to meet Warren, how
they engaged in the struggle in which Green
ley was stabbed. Gfeeu1ey was a very large
man aud Warren was a small one. The
Morgans also attempted to part the men
while they were struggling The details OF
the stories were not unlike those given by
the witnesses for the State.
At the afternoon session Creenley's sister
testified for the defence. Her testimony was
similar to that at the morning session.
George Carter was called by the State and
testified to the evidence given by the wit
nesses before the coroner's jury at Hsrring-
ton.
Both sides closed at S O'Clock aud
court adjourned.
Deputy attorney Giles began argument
on Wednesday morning, and he was fol-
lowed by R. R. Kenney for the defence.
Their arguments occupied the entire
morning. James Pennewill followed
with one of the best efforts OF his life. On
every hand his pleading was favorably
spoken of. Attoruey-General Nickol-
son closed and Chief Justice charged the
jury-which went to its room at S p. m,
on Wednesday.
On Thursday they returned verdict
of manslaughter, and sentenced him to
eighteen months imprisonment, two
thousand dollars fine and cost of prose
cution.

injury almost miraculously. Mr. Nailor
had sick dog which he wished to put
out of its sufferings, and took the gun
an old muzzle loader-to shoot him. Mr..
Nailor shoots from the left shoulder and
this alone saved his life-as the gun
burst at point just forward of the tube
and blew piece out OF the barrel for
space of eight inches and sent the lock
far into the field. The stock was shiver-
ed and a splinter cut his right thigh
slightly-which was the only injury he
received. Had the gun been fred from
