"A singer? Pah! What's her name?''
said Barnum.
Jenny Lind

FAUST'S BIRTHPLACE SOLD
Dispo sed of for the Sum of 1875, $780,
900 Once Asked.

Berlin May 3.-The house in Roda,
Saxe-Altenburg, where DR.. Johann
Faust, the famous magician and soOth-
sayer of legendary fame was born to-
ward the last quarter of the 18th cen
fury, was knocked down to ma tive for
$25 the other day and is now being dis
mantled.
Five years ago when the worlds fair
commission dispatched a small army
of curiosity hunters to all parts of the
globe to seek attractions, the good peo-
pie of ROda asked cool 500, 900 for the
little pile of brick, wood, iron, mortar
and dust that was to be taken down
and regretted in this city.
But the price was considered too stiff
and the negotiations fell through. In
order that the house might not fall
down, the municipal fathers of the lit
tie town ordered it's immediate demoli-
ton.
This historic structure stood until
quite recently on the rocky eminence
It was a frame building, very rickety,
and had been extensively repaired.
There is a legend that is dated back to
the year 1850 or 400, as do many other
buildings of Roda. That Faust saw the
light in one of it's dingy rooms, with
floors of trampled earth and tiny win
dows in leaden frames, is attested by
several authentic statements in the
town chronicle, and also in the Faust
Buch,'' printed in 1887, from which all
later writer's on the Faust legend quote,
and which is their chief authority.

DIR. GUNsAULUs' WORK.
May Go to New York to Garry on 6
Great Enterprise.

New York, May 3.-The Rev. DR.. F.
w. Gunsaulus of Chicago preached at
the Broadway tabernacle yesterday
morning and evening and made a most
favora BILE impression.
DR. Gunsaulus has not received a call
to the pulpit, but he can have one if
he wants it. The tabernacle is one of
the Oldest churches in New York, and
one of the wealthiest.
The trustees have been offered So
100000 for the site upon which the tab
ernacle stands, but DR.. Gunsaulus says
a light house ought to be maintained
there as a beacon to mariners upon the
great sea we call life, and the only in
ducement that would bring him to New
York would be the opportunity to do
the good that may be done by a light
house keeper at such a location. The
Armour institute and Plymouth church
in Chicago can survive and go on with
their great work without DR.. GunsaUlus
although he feels greatly attached to
them, but if a field should be opened
here, if the rich men who compose the
cOngrega ton of Broadway tabernacle
would agree to furnish the funds to es-
tablish and maintain such an institu-
ton as DR. Gunsaulus has in his mind.
he would come here and expend the rest
of his strength.
It isn't merely a church, a Sunday
school. a lecture room that he plans but
their moral, intellectual and political
usefulness.
Said DR.. Gunsaulus:
The only thing which would make
me think for a moment of leaving Chi
cago for New York would be the posi-
bility of establishing such a work here.
The only way I have looked into the
question here is as one who, believing
a great work is to be done, looks over
what appears to be a great field where
the work is needed. Chicago is almost
a babel of nationalities. and there is
plenty of work to be done there. 1t has
been stated that New York is a great
candlestick, and there is room for
great candle to be set here to light it
up.
TT seems to me the possibilities open
to the Broadway tabernacle are glori-
Gus. 1t owns its buildings which tens
of thousands of young men and young
women walk past every night. believe
it would be possible to get some of
them in there.
"Other thousands doubtless board in
the neighborhood. who do not know
where to go ION Sunday evenings or
week day evenings for that matter. I
believe they could be interested"

THE WILLIAM SELL CASE.
MaudIin Sympathy at Work in the In
terest of This Penitentiary Bird

Charles A. Cox, Representative
from Neosho county, will appear be-
fore the state board of pardons today
and upon him depends the fate of VIII
lie Sell, who, now confined in the peni-
Tertiary for life under sentence of muir
der. makes application for the pardon
which two members of the board had
agreed to recommend, but delayed their
report to the governor for the purpose
of hearing further testimony.
Mr. Cox was county attorney at the
time the boy was prosecuted. 1t is re-
ported that Mr.. Cox will appear before
the board and make a statement in
favor of the applicant. If this be done
the board will recommend the pardon.
J. v. Randolph. member of the board,
said today: Upon what Mr. Cox says
depends entirely the action of this
board. We had agreed to recommend
a pardon, but have withheld our re-
port to the governor for the purpose
of securing additional information"
The board will cease undoing the
work of the courts after Monday, until
some time in July, when the next ses-
sion Will be held. A large number of
cases have been passed upon, in fact
nearly all of those which were pending
have been reported to the governor.
