IITHE ORIGINAL MUGwUMpy
Candidate George Fred Williams
Gained That Title In 1854.


George Fred Williams, the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor of Mas
sachusetts, has been called the "orig-
inal Mugwump," because during the
national campaign of 1884 he was one
of the first Republicans to break away
from the party ties and join the inde-
pendent movement
He was born in Dedham, Mass, JULY
10, 1852, prepared for college in the pub
lie schools of his native town and then
studied for the bar at Dartmouth COL
lege. After securing his diploma he
went abroad to enjoy the educational
advantages of Berlin and Heidelberg
and upon his return to this country
began the practice of his profession
in 1875 in Boston, where he speedily
made his mark as an erudite, skiIIful
and eloquent lawyer
Early In his career at the bar he be-
gan to take an interest in politics and
affiliated himself with the Republican
party. In 1887 he edited Williams,
Citations of Massachusetts Cases. {"
and from 1880 to 1887 edited volumes
10 to II of the Annual Digest of the
United States.''
In 1889 he made his debut as an Of
fice-seeier and was elected to the Mas
sachusetts legislature, where he served
on the probate and the insolvency
committees. He next aspired to a seat
in congress, and after an exciting can

that when in training they crave stim-

II they exercise regularly, the need of
some sustaining and reviving agent is
felt very strongly. This fact is recog-

PREPARATION OF MEATS.
Methods by Which the French
Butchers Excel in Their Call

ing.
Butchers meat >Gn France) is pre-
pared, divided and arranged in the
shops in such manner that it never
suggests slaughter. 1t is a. rare
thing for one to see a stain on the
counter, bench or floor. The mode
OF killing the animals probably has
something to do with this freedom
from moisture and dripping. The
ANIMALS are not bled before being
killed, as might be inferred from
the absence of moisture, but they are
Killed in such a manner that veins
and arteries are emptied quickly and
thoroughly. After this the animal is
bouffee-that is, filled with wind.
The large arteries are pressed open
and points of large bellows are in
serted into them. While the bel
lows are being worked a man beats
all parts of the carcass with a fiat
SUCK. This is to distribute the air
In all parts of the flesh. All this
work is done very rapidly. The in
hating of the animal in this manner
gives a fuller and firmer appear
ance to the meat, and, I fancy, emp
ties the veins and arteries more eff
fectually than they would otherwise
pe. The French use very little ice,
and meats are kept only a few days
at the most. The best of beef in
France does not compare with Amer
lean beef, but the veal is superior to
anything we have. 1t is valued more
highly than any other product of the
butcher. But no matter what the
Wand, when it comes to the hands
of the cook it is so prepared that
she has but little to do except to
cook it.

MY PHILOSOPHY.

| allus argy that a man
Who does about the best he can
Is plenty good enough to suit
This lower mundane institute,
No mater eff his daily walk
Is subject fer his neighbor's talk
And critic minds of ev'ry whim
Just all get up and go fer him.
It's nachural enough. 1 guess,
When some gets more and some gets
less,
For them that's on the slimmest side
To claim 1t amt a fair divide,
And I've knowed some to lay in wait
AND get up soon and set up late
To ketch some fellow they would hate
Fer geing at a faster gait.
The signs is bad when folks commence
A nndin' fault with Providence,
AND balkin' cause the world don't
shake
At ev'ry prancin' step they take
How less than little he would be
Ef stripped to self and stark and bare
he hung his sign out everywhere.
My doctrin' is to lay aside
Contentious and be satisfied.
Jest do your best, and praise or blame
Ihat follerS that count just the same.
I've allus noticed great success
IS mixed with trouble, more or less,
ana 1t s the man who does the best
mat gets more kicks than all the rest.

excellent health. He had finished his
trip around the world. Kings, queens,
emperors, lords and potentates had all
done him honor. But I venture the
assertion that he took more pleasure
and greater delight in the handshaking

mad the pleasure of seeing him, than

Patrons of the Grand avenue car
line, if passengers about the noon hour,
may have noticed a man in the uniform
OF city mail CARRIER, board the car
In the neighborhood of st. Adams
street, carrying an infant in his arms.
Those who have seen him many times
during the summer, both at the noon
hour and after o'clock in the even
ing, employed in the (to him) most hap
py manner, have remarked upon the
all engrossing interest the father
shows in his little baby daughter-for
".
death of his wife, some six months
ago, the father was left in sole charge
of the little one, and as nearly as can
be, he fulfills the duties of both par
ents. The small motherless one is in
charge of the Babies home, on Lin
coin avenue, that model charity found
ed by noble Christian women for help
less little ones, and although well
tended and cared for at this institu-
ton, few are the homeless little babies
who can boast so fond a fathers love.
This man, busy and full of care, spends
his hour at noon and as long as seems
best for the baby at night in carrying
1t forth to enjoy the bright sunshine
and pure air of the balmy days. The
gentle touches, as of a loving mother
by which the wrappings are adjusted,
the love in the eyes that search the in
fant's face for a return of affection or
for assurance of pleasure and comfort
are most pathetic and touching to the
onlooker. During the warm SUNNY
days the father carried an umbrella
to shield the small ones eyes. or in
windy weather to temper the breeze:
and so absorbed is the fond parent in
getting full measure of endowment of
the short time he can spend with his
baby girl that he seems utterly uncon-
Sc1ous of the presence of his fellow
passengers. The glances of curiosity
from the strangers and those of inter-
est and admiration from the ones who
know the relations of the two are
alike unseen by him, so involved is he
In the comfort and welfare of his
mOtherleSS babe Incidents of naternaI
aHection are not uncommon, perhaps,
but to witness such devotion and care
on the part of this lonely man helps
to elevate my opinion of humanity.

TOMCAT,S VOICE.

WhT IS the nightingale so still,
At this enchanted hour,
When she is ever wont to trill
In yonder trelissed bower?
Has some emotion stirred her heart
To ecstacies of gladneSs?
Or is 1t truthleSs that her art
Is but the vent of sadness?
I've brought my madolin tonight,
With silver strings and frettings,
And sit here in the glow-worm's light.
All sorrows fain forgetting
That may hear again that bird,
And learn her magic power;
Yet ne'er a. canto have I heard
From her sequeStered bower.
But hist What piercing strain is that.
With fiat and weird infection?
All, it's the solo of our cat
His favorite selection.
And now appears a bloody tale
The tomcat, quite discreetly,
Has eaten up the nightingale
That he might sing more sweetly.

Important Action in the Woodruff Caso
 Special Judge Winchester, of Fort Smith. sitting in place of Justice Hughes, the other day, rendered the decision of the supreme court revers- ing the celebrated Woodruff case and
 remanding it to Perry county for new trial. Woodruff has been promi- nently before the public as the state treasurer who was short s15O. 900 and was sentenced to one year in the peni- tentiary. Of the sixty-six points upon which a reversal was prayed, the court reversed on only one, and that was the following instruction of the circuit judge to the jury:
 ''The jury are instructed that coupons clipped from the bonds that have not been re- deemed can not be exchanged for bond script, snd that such an exchange is a fraud upon the state, and an intention to have such an ex- shange made. knowing the bonds from which 1bs coupons were clipped had not been re- deemed, is an intention to defrauc the state"
 As the indictment alleged that the defendant made certain representa- Eons to the state debt board designed ly and with the intention to defraud the state, the court held that the al- legation that the approximations were made with the intention to defraud the state was material and must be estab- lished by the evidence; that whether such allegation was thus established was question for the jury and should have been left for their decision. The court held that the circuit court erred in instructing the jury that an inten- tion to exchange coupons known to be clipped from unredeemed bonds was an intention to .defraud the state, for the defendant may have known this fact and still through ignorance of the law, or for other rea- sons, have intended no fraud on the state. The court said that ordinarily one could not plead ignorance of the law as an excuse for it's violation, but that there was an exception to this rule where a particular intent was necessary to constitute the offense. In such a case the defendant could show any fact tending to disprove the intent, and that the question as to whether such fraudulent intent ex- isted on the part of the defendant was always a question for the jury. For these reasons the case is reversed and remanded for new trial.
 Judge Battle dissented from portions of the decision, but concurred in the reversal

A suit to construe the will of R. V. Yeakle, deceased. was decided at Little Rock by Chancellor Martin. The suit was instituted by R. B. Gress. executor of the Yeakle estate. The contention was made that Yeakle's interest in his insurance business was credit, under the third clause of the will. and if it was such should be divided equally be- tween Mrs. Yeakle, mother of the de- ceased, and Mrs Brandon. Under the ninth clause it was contended on the other hand that if the insurance inter- est of the deceased was personal effect it should be awarded to Mrs Brandon without division. The court decided that the division should be made half and half.
