Mr. Dingleheimer arose with great grace

How Tom MILLER Got a Red.

Thomas E. Miller, colored, who was a
member of the Fifty-first congress, is a
very light colored man, says the st. Louis
correspondence of the New York Sun.

the big hotels which has drawn the color
line distinctly and adhered to it. Mr.
Miller is stopping at the St James. lie

bama delegation arrived Mr.. Miller acted
as spokesman. He inquired if quarters
for the South Carolina delegation were
ready. The proprietor whose name is
Miller too, said: The white memb ers
of the delegation will be accommodated,
sir, but no colored man can secure quar-
ters.''
"Then we are barred out, are we?'
said Mr.. Miller.
Not at all, said the proprietor. You
and your white companions can have all
the room you want"
The matter ended there and Mr.. Miles

A Rare Woman.

One of the most attractive and best be-
loved among the American women of our
century must be reckoned Sallie Ward,
who married DR.. Hunt, and who was the
idol of Kentucky, says an exchange. She
was not only beautiful but richly endow-
ed with all the most admired graces of
mind and character, and there seems to
have been universal enthusiasm about
her.
Mrs. Ellet, who has written so sympa-
thetcally of American women says that
Sallie Wards popularity was somewhat
like that of a princess in her hereditary
province where even the humblest indi-
vidual could claim a sort of ownership in
her.
If a child had pet kitten or bird it was
fondly named Sallie Ward When a farm
er wished to apply the highest possible
praise to one of his young live stock he
would distinguish it as a "a perfect Sal
lie Ward"
But, perhaps the most shining jewel
among all these praises lavished upon her
came from little girl, whose mother was
one day teaching her to say her prayers,
and to think on the power and greatness
of the Creator
God made all the beautiful things"
said she. He made the stars and the
flowers"
And. mamma" interrupted the child
with lovely simplicity of thought, "he
made Sallie Ward 8"

August Belmont of the late bond syn

mittee on bond investigation in New York
the other day, The committee wished to
know, among other things, all the details
of Mr.. Belmonts profits on the bond sales,
which he refused to answer, on the ground
that it was his private business. Some
time ago a Senate committee investigat-
ing a sugar scandal wished to know from
a broker named, Chapman some details of
his private business, which he declined to
answer In order to 'Vindicate" itself,
the Senate had Mr.. Chapman indicted and
arrested, and the case is still pending in

For two weeks or such matter a Mrs
Fleming has been on trial in New York
upon the charge of poisoning her mother.
In so far as decorous proceedings, such
as might be expected in a high court of
justice is concerned, the trial has been a
bowling farce. The counsel have had
monkey and parrot time each day, and
the judge, Recorder Golf, has been incap-
able of stopping the unseemly squabbling.
The case is one that almost any court out
side Of New York would have disposed of
inside Of a week. But in that city Grim
inal trials have become chiefly tits of
expert witnesses and lawyers, in which
the ends of justice are apparently almost
lost sight Of In the case in question, to
judge from the newspaper reports, the
trial had gone on for ten days or more
before there was any suggestion of con-
nection between the death of the de-
ceased and the accused.
