Chancellor Henry Bathurst was held
in low esteem by the bar ON account Of
his ignorance. At the close of the trial
of the Duchess of Kingston for bigamy
he gravely addressed her grace in the
following terms: Madam, the lords
have considered the charge and evidence
brought against and have likewise con-
sidered of everything which you have
alleged in your defense, and upon the
whole matter their lordships have found
You not guilty Of the felony wherewith
you stand charged, but ON dismissing
you their lordships earnestly exhort you
not to commit the same crime a second
time. Green Bag.

One Of the earliest of the American
bearded freaks was Louis Jasper, who
lived in southern Virginia at about the
time Of the close Of the Revolutionary
war His beard was 9H feet long and
correspondingly thick and heavy. He
could take his mustache between his fin
gers and extend his arms to their full
length, and still the ends of the boards
were over foot beyond his finger tips.

done by the thumb and forefnger of one

J. Wynne of Ills 18th street northwest is
serving in that capacity for Mr.. Shriver.
The leave-taking between Messrs. Chap

The Other Side.

To the Editor of The EveI.ing Star:
Kindly allow me- to say something in re-
ply to a Citizen" 1 am citizen OF
over fcrty years. ard shall sign my name
to this. 1 hope that the Senator Gray
Cameron resolution may not pass either
house of Congress, as l have yet to hear
of single valid reason for its so doing.
The reason assigned by Citizen is that
he fears that the street in front of the
opera house will he blockaded by boot
blacks and peanutgalery men," The
street in front of the old Blaine mansion
is ninety-one feet wide, and the sidewalk
is thirty-f five feet wide. and / venture to
state that there never has been in this
city a blockade in front of any of the ex-
listing theaters. and never will be as long
Col. Moore is the head of the police
force. Lafayette Square has three sides
available for the construction of an opera
house, and on these three sides there is
ground for over twenty opera houses, so
that to carry out the idea of the so-called
Citizen" the ground should all be bought
by the government. There is not square
in the whole city on which saloons have
not been licensed. L am proud of the part
/ have had ir the leasing of the Blaine
mansion and in the award of the con-
struction Of the new fire-proof opera house.
which is to be opened in September next,
and from the universal approval of the
project that 1 have met on all sides L
don't believe there are a hundred citizens
believe that there is a person in the city
who knows John w. Albaugh who believes
that he will ever allow anything of an OBJ
jectionable neture on Lafayette Square or
anywhere else; his record of fifteen years
in this city is a sufficient guarantee that
he will not. l don't believe there is a per-
son in the city who will not admit that
an absolutely fire-proof opera house is
desirable thing to have. If a first-class
place of amusement is to be built at all, it
certainly should be built in a frst-class
locality, and not. in an out-of-the-way
place in an undesirable neighborhood. The
construction of this building will furnish
employment fer an average of 100 men q
Gay for the next nine months. and the dis
tribution of $4,000 among the unem-
pioyed. who now number 1900 to 15.O00. Is
certainly not thing to be arrested by
the government by an expenditure of a
quarter of a million of dollars. when it
has the money to borrow to do 1t with,
and is at the same time cutting off the
lights in the city streets. refusing money
to properly conduct the public schools and
pinching and parirg in every direction.
