Der, it must have been two or three
hours, and added show long was it Mr..
Breckinrldge?" An Interrogation which
provoked laugh.
Miss Pollard's expenses while at
school in Lexington, it was developed,
had been partly paid by Colonel Brock
inridge, but he could not give her very
much, because IL would have awakened
the suspicious of Mr.. Rhodes.
Mr.. Butterworth.-"You knew that
IL your relations became known it would
mean disgrace to both OF you?"
81 knew it.
"You concealed your relations with
him, then?"
IT did my part and he did his"
"Did Mr.. Rhodes pay yoCr board?"
"You don't think even Mr.. Breckin-
ridge was as bad as that. Mr.. Rhodes
paid my tuition"
Questions were asked regarding the
location Of Miss Pollsrd's room at her
boarding place, with two olo ladies,
while she attended the Sayre Institute
in Lexington, evidently with the inten-
ton Of showing that she might have
received visitors at night unknown to
THE REST OF THE HOUSEHOLD.
"Did Mr.. Rhodes know OF your rela-
tions to Mr.. breckenridge" was asked.
Indeed he did not, or Mr.. Breckin-
ridge would not have been living to-
day"
''Then you were under sort of con-
tract to marry Mr.. Rhodes in return for
the money for your schooling, Mr..
Breckenridge was keeping you aud you
were engaged to M. Resell"
(Deliberately)-'Yes, Mr.. Butter
worth, it was as bad as 1t sounds. And
he knows it ALL" (Referring to Mr..
Breckinridge).
Speaking of her life in Cincinnati,
when her first child was born, Miss Pol
lard said that she had told all sorts Of
mysterious stories TO keep Or. Street

when a minor discrepancy between her
testimony and the article purporting to
be hers. recently published in the New
York World, was noted. At the Nor
wood convent she had worn a veil so
that no one but Sister Cecilia had seen
her face. During that time her letters
to COL Breckenridge had been addressed
to Margaret Dillon, Box A, Lexing-
ton, KY"
When she had visited the convent af-
ter the suit was filed, Sister Agnes had
not at first recognized her, but before
she left had said 'she has undoubtedly
been here"
"Dd she not tell you that you were
an immoral woman?" asked Mr.. Butter
worth.
"She did not. She attempted to give
me sort OF lecture. She asked me
why wanted TO ruin that old man in
his old sge. I replied why did he want
to ruin me in my youth?' She said that

'Did you have any woman before you
as an ideal?" Mr.. Butterworth asked,
and as Miss Pollard was answering mo,
sir; hoped 10 make 3 name by writ
ing" her lawyers objected and the
Judge sustained the objection.
For two years when she was first in
Washington. she had met Mr.. Breckin-
ridge three or four times week in a
house on Fourth street. She had spent
one summer at Bread Loaf Inn, in Yer
mont, a semi-fashionable resort, ten
miles from Middebury, kept by Joseph
Battel.
She denied having represented her
self as an authoress Of reputation. She
met there a woman named Mrs. Bridges,
Of Brooklyn, 'the one who wrote the
article in the Standard Union. F"
What articlo?" asked Mr.. Butter
worth.
THE one you are leading HD to.
1.-THE article in question was one which
appeared Saturday,.
twas that article true?" was the
next question.
1T is mainly untrue. 1t is colored to
suit events. Il is net true that have
ever taken opium, nor thau repre-
sented myself as the author OF the poem
Loves Power, written by Mrs. jose
phine Pollard"
She had read the poem at Bread Loaf,
TO little audience.
Mr.. Buttervorth read extracts from
the article, drawing questions from
them. Miss Pollard had not known
James Russell Lowell, as Mrs. Bridges
said had been her boast. but had visited
his grave, had known MS relatives we'll,
and had been entertained b. his wife's
sister, Mrs. DR.. Howe, in Cambridge.
She had
KNOWN WILLIAM DEAN HowELLS,
the author, had great respect for him,
as he had always been kind in answer
ing her questions, and had received
letters from him which her counsel had.
Il was suggested by Judge Bradley

Mr.. Butterworth-"Did you not tell
her that this suit was brought for re-

Miss Pollard-"That is as false as
words can be framed. told her that

responsibility in this matter aDd that

my own share, but would not bear all
the burden he had placed upon me.

this matter, believe that justice will
be done. and T believe that these men
turning TO the jury will help see it
done"
When Mr.. Butterworth asked some
questions about money matters, Miss
Pollard said her only effort at the time
referred TO. as 1t always had been, was
to conceal her relations with Mr.. Brock
inridge.
Mr.. Butterworth-"You have not

A PointbIank Pointer.

The Citizen, and its satellites, now
claim that they are not opposed to the
creation of railroad commission.
They make the further claim that
everything the Performers" set forth
in their address, is promised in the
democratic state platform. Yet about
which they have raved with the fury
of mad men.
If the 'sreform address, had been
promulgated by the state executive
committee we are made to believe
that the .'kickersu would be tooth and
toe nail for it. They admit that there
is very general demand for just such
an address, and if it had beed issued
by the state executive committee ii
would have borne the true democratic
ring, would have been timely per-
formance and would have shown in
every utterance the quintessence OF
sound craftsmanship.
Well, to harmonic all factions, sup
pose the state executive committee
meet and adopt this address as its
own. That will settle all agitation,
and Wen promise that no reform pa
per so called, VIII denounce the mem
bers of the committee as being on the
scent for office.
Are party platforms like the plat
forms to railroad cars, merely to gel
in on?

The Meanest Man Since Adam.

The Chicago Herald says that Col.
w. G. 2. Breckenridge is the meanest
man that has ever lived on the earth
since Adam was driven from the gar
den of Eden. Adams excuse for eat
ing the forbidden fruit" was the plea
that the woman tempted him. Con-
gresham Breckenridge makes the
same plea. When he was tempted
Col. Breckenridge was sixty years old,
a Congressman, long public man and
acquainted with ways of the world,
especially the wicked ways, and yet be
permitted an artless school girlin short
dresses to lead him astray. 1.-THE wo-
man tempted me- is the plea he
makes before the world in extenuation
of his crime. Not only this, but he
rings in the name of Col. Swope, now
dead, as having been intimate with
Miss Pollard and ''dead men tell no
tales But If Miss Pollard is the vile
woman Congressman Breckenridge
now paints her, why did he introduce
her to his wife and friends and have
Mrs. Luke Blackburn to chaperon her.
Looking at the picture from either d.
reetion tits without extenuating colors.
Wherever Col. Breckinridge's place is
it's certainly not in Washington City,
and the good people Of Kentucky
should hereafter keep him rigidly at
home and no more turn him loose
upon an unsuspecting world.

Pecan Onltnre.

The New Orleans Picayune says !:
ssPecans would be more extensively
produced in this state were the trees
to come in bearing sooner from the
planting. This tree often bears at the
age of twelve or fifteen years, but it
can hardly be said to be in full bear
ing under thirty years. The pecan
can be grated on a hickory and
brought in full bearing in less than
half that time. A pecan tree in full
bearing, if the fruit is of good quality,
will sometimes produce fruit to the
value of $25 yearly. Its average year.
ly product will not be under $40.
Every such tree is worth more than
500 to its proprietors. Suppose a
planter had started 1000 such pecan
trees thirty years ago. Those trees
would now be worth 100000, and the
land would be valuable as a woodland
pasture, thirty trees standing upon an
acre. If every shade tree in every
dooryard and on all plantations in this
state were a full-grown pecan tree,
bearing pecans of fine quality, their
value to the state, compared to the
value of property in 1880, would be
greater than the assessed value of the
city of New Orleans.u

a. Strange Story.

Felix Steiner is the name of man
who has recently disappeared, and it
is thought that he has committed sui
eide. His story is sad one, and one
of the strangest on record.
He was divorced from his wife in
1878, the woman taking their only
child, daughter, and going into re-
tirement. She changed her name,
hoping to blot out the past by SO do
ing.
Years afterward her husband that
was fell in love with beautiful young
girl, and was married to her.
After the wedding he told her the
story of his life. She was equally
communicative and told him her
story.
Steiner heard the tale, said nothing,
but quietly disappeared.
He had married his own daughter.

In advocating railroad commission
the Florida Citizen says the "self-
styled'' "reformers'' have suggested no
reform that was not already in favor
with the democrats of Florida and
with the railroad companies as well.
1t goes on further to say that they
have brought forth no new idea. That
they have suggested no reformation to
which the democratic party was not
practically pledged in advance to re-
peal. Then what is the Citizen and its
allies heaping abuse upon them for.
Why is it charged that Ghey are seek
ing the destruction of the democratic
party? Why are they called "mar-
plots'' and TRAITORS? Why has that
terrible threat been made that the
''dogs of war; would be let loose on
them? If they, as democrats, have
simply urged the carrying into prac-
tice the promises of the democratic
party as contained in it's platform OF
principles, why all tnls FUSS anu
feathers and fanfaronade that means
nothing? These newspapers are a
strange lot. They are abusing these
good citizens because they hav'nt said
anything that wasn't democratic and
are abusing the Banner because it re-
fuses to oppose the confirmation of its
good friends, Messrs. Long and Wilson.
Now, we say to these papers if they
want somebody tosay something that's
not democratic they must say that
something themselves, and if they want
some democratic paper to oppose the
confirmation of Messrs. Long and
Wilson the Banner cannot be SO oblig-
ing just for the sake of being abused.
The fool killer Unjust now be busy in
Kansas but he will surely visit Florida
before long. He cannot stand the Tom
foolery that these people have recently
gotten off. But we admit it is almost
enough to make the fool-killer dis
gusted with his business and go on a
strike.

The Silver Issna.

Mr.. W. Y. Atkinson, who is seek
ing the the democratic nomination
for governor of Georgia before the
people of the Empire state, correctly
in our opinion states the silver issue.
He says:
favor the free and unlimited coinage of gold
and silver now. From the days that the crowned
heads of Europe struck down silver, the people
have suffered. The national platform announces
two plans for free coinage-one by international
agreement, the other by legislation. The first
plan is too remote, and, therefore, we should
proceed, by legislation, to coin gold and silver
primary money of final payment This will in
crease the circulation. Silver coinage is not to
be favored as theory, but as thing we need
right now. 1t is time enough to talk OF ratio
when the necessity actually arises.
