COUNT ITO'S HEROIC WIFE.
Dragged by the Hair, She Would Not B,
tray Her Lover.

Dragged by the Hair, She Would Not Be-
tray Her Lover.
Of Count Ito, the distinguished Japa.
nese statesman, Sir Edwin Arnold gives
this interesting incident: II sat at table
with the ex-premier and his wife and
children. The countess, quiet, gentle,
motherly and wearing spectacles, cary
ing the tai and the kamo with such
matronly serenity, had yet history of
romance and devotion which could
make the widest fctionist's fortune.
"Long ago in those dark and bloody
days when the minister was her lover
and fugitive from his enemies there
came a time when they had tracked
him to her house and had chosen a band
Of Soshis to assassinate him. The noise
of their clogs and the rafting Of their
scabbards were heard, and the count,
trapped like stag in his mountain
pleasance, drew his Bizen blade and
prepared to die as Japanese lord should
amid circle Of dead foes. But while
he murmured 'Saganore!' and knitted
his fingers around the shark skin hilt OF
his sword that brave lady whose guest
was whispered: DO not die, There is
hope still. Upon which she removed
the hlbachi, or firebox, over which they
were sitting, and lifting up the mating
and planks beneath induced her lover tc
conceal himself in the hollow space
which exists under the floor Of all jap
anese homes. The murderers broke into
the room, a ferocious band, just as the
firebog had been replaced, and the
countess had assumed position Of non
chalance
"They demanded their victim, and
when she protested against their intru-
sion and babe them search if they
wanted Ito, the wretches dragged her
around the apartment by her long,
beautiful black hair, now touched with
silver, and grievously maltreated her,
but could not shake her resolute fid city.
Thanks to this, Count Ito, the hero of
many another strange adventure, es-
capped from the chief peril Of his career
and has lived to give his country a new
constitution and to be one of the fore
most and best respected statesmen of
modern JAPAN

THE MYSTERIOUS HAYsEED,
He Didn't Talk Much, but When He Did
He Frightened the Crook.

He Didn't Talk Much, but When He Did
He Frightened the Crook.
It was while Tom Byrnes was SUPER
intendent Of police that one day mid
die aged man walked into a popular
Greenwich street restaurant and called
for broi]ed beefsteak. Men do that ev-
cry day, but this particular man wore
long hair, which was brushed behind
his ears, and had a smooth face, save a
little tuft Of chin whisker. He was
dressed in a gray suit and carried car
/ pet satchel
There was no question that the man
was from the 'rooral destrict," for one
could almost see the hayseed in his un-
shorn locks, and his pockets were appar>
emily bullying with corn husks. The
stranger had no more than seated him
self when we'll dressed, smart looking
young man entered and took seat at
the same table. He also ordered steak
In due time they were served. The
countryman went to work industriously
and was soon enjoying his meal Not so
his vis-a-vis. The young man com
planned that his meat was tough-tough
as sole leather.
Elbows yours, stranger?" he asked.
"Mine's all right" was the reply,
with nasal twang.
But try as he would the young fellow
! couldn't induce the other to talk with
him. Finally he said it was a shame to
serve such steak. He declared he be-
lieved the cook had wiped the floor with
it, it was so full Of grit.
The stranger looked up, and fixing a
piercing gray eye on the young man
quietly but significantly remarked:
IF Byrnes knew you were down
here, you would be eating worse steak
than that.
The young fellow turned pale and
dropped his jaw, also his knife and fork.
His appetite seemed to have suddenly
left him. He called for his check, paid
it and left the restaurant in hurry.

afterward for swindlng a man with a

Kuplnstein was undoubtedly 1naccu-
rate at times. People who held scores
through those long programmes could
easily find that out He not only en-
broidered even Beethoven, but he would
invent Bach. What he invented was
probably quite as good as what he hap
pened to forget and always extremely
interesting. Still, it was not note for
note, and that is what the billiards
gloated over. Bulow was more accu-
rate, but even Bulow forgot or manu-
featured bar or two occasionally. But

The Rock Island railroad has adopted
an excellent plan to test the honesty of it's
conductors. They were informed that
spoilers would no longer be employed

saved would be applied to an increase

Nearly 900 Already Subscribed for
a May Festival.


Already nearly 81 900 has been subscribed
for May pageant. The movement which
was started last week by a number Of
gentlemen who had recently visited New
Orleans and witnessed the Mardi Gras
festivities met with a general approval
at once.
1t is three years since the last May
festival in Savannah. Merchants real
lie the value of these celebrations. The
feature of the last festival was the carn!-
val procession. Everybody then said Sa-
vannah must have pageant every year.
Those who had been visitors at New
Orleans during the Mardi Gras festivals
for years said the pageant here was equal
to the great parades in New Orleans, only
lacking, Of course. the spirit of gayety
among the crowds Of people which wit
messed It. This is part of the Mardi
Gras festivals. The gay Louisianians en-
ter into them with a spirit that is not pos
sessed by the people Of any other city in
the south Aside from that the Savannah
pageant was equal to and even more than
anyone, even those who had planned IL,
expected it would be.
1t Is the plan of the gentlemen who have
the matter i'm charge to reproduce a part
of the pageant of 1892, with the addition
OF an enulely new procession. WIN lne
experience obtained in the last parade
with a large part of the property. the
floats, costumes and other paraphernalia
used then, still on hand and in good con-
dition a pageant representing some APP
propriate subject. mythical or otherwise,
could be produced on a more elaborate
scale and at much less expense than that
of three years ago.
number OF propositions have been re-
ceived from parties in New Orleans to
furnish floats. Mr.. j. c. Shaw, who had
the management of the procession in 1892
is in correspondence with several art
lists, who have planned the New Orleans
pageants, with view to placing the mat
ter before a citizens committee, to ar
range for the display. Merchants and
business men appreciate the value and
Importance Of displays of this character,
which brings visitors to the city.
There is not any doubt that the
railroads would make a half fare rate
and, possibly, even lower than that dur
ing the celebration. The idea is not 70
extend the festival over two days. or three
at the most, but to make the night pa
geant the great feature. possibly adding
some attractions during the days.
