DEFENDED THE LADIES.
The Gallant Conductor Looked After His
Passenger.

Monday evening. as car No. 80 was
passing Fourteenth and Main streets. it
stopped 20 take on two ladies' and a man.
The latter appeared to be under the in
huence of liquor. He made several in
suting rem arks about the ladies in the
car. The conductor said he did not allow
ladies 10 be insulted on his car and told
the mar TO get off; whcreupon he struck
the conductor on the ear.
The col drctor jerked the man out OF the
car. and after deservedly chastising him
he put him OF the car.
The young ladies stated that the man
had followed them for quite distance.
and had accosted them, and that they
boarded the car for protection. Quite
crowd gathered during the rumpus, and
many encCiniums were showered upon the
conductor when the facts were known.

financial success
PROF Harris said the Homeric Question
was not only interesting Tor it's own sake
bat for the vast learning devoted 10 IL
within the last century, and for It's OBJ
vious bearing on higher criticism IN gene
raj After reviewing the several theories
OF Wolf. GrOte. Gladstone. and Jebb the

Prof Harris would grant much that each

there was one great genius known as
Homer. nving not later than $50 i. c., VINO
combined the work Of all predecessors
and gave the great epics their present
form.
Much attention was paid to the beauties
of Homer's style and the lecturer named
as prominent characteristics simplicity
plainness. nobility, and rapidity.
Prof Harris closed with an account OF
q letter written by Thomas jefferson III
his old age TO his friend James Madison
DR. Harris received the story from the
Tate Col. Ruiiin. who possessed the letter
among his family papers The sage OF
Monticello wrote to the eX-President that
as age came on him he found the range
of his reading becoming more and more
circumscribed. lie now read only Milton,
virgil. and Homer. and ne thought the
time was near al hand when ne would
read only Homer and his Bible.
The third lecture will be delivered next
Tuesday evening at the same time and
