to you to know the high esteem IN which
Chamberlain's medicines are held by the

be best known. An aunt of mlne, who re-
sides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me
few years since, and before leaving home
wrote me asking if they were not she would
bring quantity with her, as she did not
like to be without them" The medicines re-

ton made by him in the quiet-title suit of
Fair vs. Angus.
He was fined $50 He explained to
Judge Slack that he had not left the City
that day, but that he did not hear of the
search for him by the officers until Sun
day morning. He had no intention of
committing contempt, he said. The case
had gone over to August and he thought
it was sufficient If he came at any time be-
fore that date and signed the deposition.
Mr.. McEnerney asked Cooney where he
was that day. The notary declined to an
swer and McEnerny asked the court to in
struct him to do so. Judge Slack declined,
but said that the witness refusal to an
swer would be taken into consideration.
Cooney said he would not state where he
was further than that he had not left the
City. He would, however, ne said, tell
the Judge privately if he desired.
The court did not ask that the secret
be revealed to him, but said that Cooney's $
explanation was not entirely satisfactory.
inasmuch as he admitted that he under
stood the courts injunction to return on
the day stated. He therefore imposed the
fine.
The court then began the reading of
the deposition, and continued through it
to the last syllable. although the lawyers
thought he might well have shirked that
duty. The reading occupied the entire
morning, and was followed closely by
Cooney ana representative attorneys for
both sides. This deposition is, of course,
very material, as upon it the title to a

personal questions necessary to the COM

Nearly all the actors ON the one side will
no doubt be present-Mrs. Haskins, Miss

MRS. STOWE IN LONDON.
Her Attack on Lord Byron Offended

Her Attack on Lord Byron Offended
Some of Her English Friends.
Mrs. Stowe has not visited Europe since
1859, and very little had been heard of her
since her attack upon Lord Byron in 1859,
which irreparably damaged her reputa-
ton. Mrs. Stowe made one of the great
est OF literary successes with ''Uncle Tom s
Cabin" but she profited but little by the
achievement. Her visit to England in
1853 was blaze of triumph, but she
offended many of her European friends
by the revelations and comments in her
"Sunny Memories of Foreign Lands"
(published in 1854, which Macaulay
abused as "a mighty foolish aud imperti-
nent book" 1t is, however, work which
can still be looked through with consider
able entertainment.
Mrs. Stowe paid a second visit to Eng
land in 1856, but the trip was disappoint-
ment and most of her Quondam friends
in London utterly ignored her existence,
regarding her as obsolete and played out.
Her melancholy and mortifying expert
ences during the visit caused Macaulay to
indite some weighty remarks In his diary
upon the subject of 'lions."
"There is nothing more pitiable than an
ex-lion or lIoness. London, have often
thought, is like the sorceress in the Ara

.G|LFETHER LOST
HIS CHICKENS,
Judge Low Has to Decide
a Knotty Legal
Point.
SEARCH WARRANT CASE
Eggs Were Given to Be Hatched
Out, but the Warrant Called
for Chickens.
THIS RENDERED IT DEFECTIVE
Gilfether Now Threatened With Arrest
for Perjury for Swearing That
Eggs Were Chickens.

Judge Low had knotty point to decide
Yesterday. 1t arose in the search warrant
case of Gus Gilfether, 80 Hill street,
against B. Lawlor, 1906 Sanchez street.
The point was whether Gilfether, who in
his complaint called for the production oi
two game roosters. was justified IN doing
so, seeing that he had only given Lawlor
the eggs.
Gilfether is a candidate in the Thirty
fifth Assembly District for the Legisla-
ture. and spends most of his time around
the Police courts, where he boasts he has
''pull." About two years ago he got three
dozen game eggs from John Mclaughlin,
a special policeman in Chinatown. He
gave dozen to his brother Frank to take
to Lawlor, who has an incubator and is
famed for Matching chickens. They all
hatched out but all died except four.
Lawlor gave two to Frank, who took them
to his mother, and kept the other two
himself.
Gus had not been living on friendly
terms with his parents and brother, and,
to the testimony in court yes
Nv of his brother and father, he, some
- ago, took the two chickens from
rr and beat her. He then went
and demanded the two in his

have then and there with you a certain in
strument made and entered into by Charles L.
Fair, Theresa A. Oelrichs and Virginia Fair,
wherein and whereby said parties authorized
and directed Richard V. Dey to settle the
claims of Mrs Nettie r. Craven against the
estate OF James G. Fair for sum not exceed
ing $500, 900, conditioned upon the probating
of the will of said James G. Fair, dated Sep
tember "a, 1894 if the same is now in your
custody
It is expected that this proceeding will
develop the interesting and mysterious
$500 600 con tract which Mr.. Lloyd said he
was willing now to show to anybody.
The LAWYERS will also be asked to ex-
plain why short time ago they thought
that the pencil will was just the thing,
and what led them to change their mind
about it.
Virginia Fair and Mrs. Oelrichs are soon
to be called upon to answer these ques-
tions also. Attorney Delmas yesterday
gave notice to all the lawyers in the case
that on Thursday next he will ask the
court for an order requiring the taking of
these depositions in New York City. This
proceeding is the result of the position
taken by these ladies in their answer to
the opposition of Charley Fair to the PEN
Gil will as filed in court on Wednesday, in
which answer they state that they have
no information leading them to the belief
that the pencil yilI is forgery. 1t will
be remembered that Reuben Lloyd, speak
ing for them, said, when the will was first
brought forward by Charley Fair, that
they knew that the will was genuine. The
attorneys for DIR. Levingston wish now to-
learn why they are no longer confident of
its genuineness.

Pope,s Pay for HIS I1iad.

Pope made G5320 by his Iliad. on which
he worked alone. By his Odyssey, after
paying Broome and Fenton, his assistants,
he made about f3500 To Broome and
Fenton he paid $50 for each book. Broome
did eight books, Fenton did four. l would
be pleased to translate the Odyssey at the
ratio of ESQ book-that is, for f1200 alto
gether. A better price is not likely to be
got to-day, and I have known a much
smaller price offered. Pope got far more
f3500 for twelve books-but that was be-
cause of his name. Broome and Fenton
were not likely to get more than they did
in open market, and no publisher would
offer so much to ordinary men of leisure
to-day. If the Poet Laureate, even, pro-
duced q translation of Homer tom orrow /
doubt if he would be offered f3500. Per-
haps Lord Tennyson might have secured
that sum, for his name and fame were
justly great in the land.-Lonsman's 5
