THE TYPICAL AMERICAN GIRL
c. 6. Stewart

AS type the American girl smiles
at US from the canvass ofa great artist,
and there is a dash of coquetry in her
sweet eyes and suggestion of mystic
ism in her grave, parted lips. In song
and verse, she is celebrated, and she
is the very breath of life to the modern
novel, TO the writer and illustrator
alike. But in real life who among us
has seen her? Where is she to be
found? Not in the West. She is
charming there, breezy, spirited, origi-
nal, slangy, independent, and delight
fully unconventional; but provincial
rather than national. You may look
in vain for her among the fragile,
Dresden china 6aS bLeuS of New Eng
land, whose opinions and accent are
equally chilling, and whose dainty eye
glasses are never by any chance cON-
Lenr de rose, South of the Mason and
Dixon line there exist sweet voiced,
Sweet-Epped women, always gracious,
graceful and gentle, but, alasl never
typical. Surely it will not be neceS-
sary to pursue the igniS fatuuS beyond
New York, for New York expects to
be patted every time the American
lypC 10 iICIllOIlSu. Dul Strange 10 Say,
it is by careful study of the youth and
beauty of this cosmopolitan city that
the truth is brought to light, that
there is no typical American girl.
We have, indeed, been lured to wor-
ship at false shrine. There is the
Gibson girl, who is rather the South
ern type with an added hauteur and
directness of style; the Smedley girl
who is combination of New York and
San Francisco; the Howells girl, who
has the manners of Boston with the
soul of Chicago; and the Henry James
! girl, whose manners and soul are de-
void of any local color whatever; but
even composite girl of these four
types would scarcely be sufficiently
I representative. 1t would be quite as
sensible to insist that the daisy should
grow like rose, blossom like an or.

A NOBLE ACT.
A HERO AND NOT A CONVICT.


Frankfort, Ky, July 19.-Gov. Brad
ley tonight made public a statement
announcing why he had granted a
pardon to George Denning, the negro
who was convicted recently and SEN
fenced to seven years in Jail for shoot
ing Jody Conn, who with mob had
come to his house at midnight and
ordered him 10 leave. Denning was
guarded by soldiers during his trial
at Franklin. The governor says:
"In day or two after the killing
Denning's house was burned No in
dictment was ever returned against any
member of the band. or against any
one who burned the house and the
grand jury indicted Denning mainly up
on the evidence of self-confeSSed out
laws. The conviction is easily &C
counted for. His conviction was pro
cured almost entirely on the evidence
of his would-be asSasins.
"This poor and friendlesS man, sur
rounded by his wife and six children
was ordered, without warrant of law
to leave his home, after which he wa:
fired on and wounded. He defended
himself, as every man had right tC
do. He did no more than any othel
should and would do. Instead of con
vict's garb he is entitled not only tc
acquittal, but to the admiration o
every citizen who loves good govern
ment and desires perpetuation Of free
institutions.
"Too long have mobs disgraced th'
fair name of Kentucky, and, while
am governor of this Commonwealth
no man, hover obcure and friendless
shall be punished for killing a mem
Der of mob who seeks to take his lif
or drive him from his home"

GEORGE WYMAN FREMONT.
A NEGRO DEMOCRAT CROOKED WORK
CONVICTED IN New YORK, THREE
YEARS IN PRISON.

CONVICTED IN New YORK, THREE
YEARS IN PRISON.
New York, July Ie.-Geo. Wayman
Fremont, bright-eyed negro, who
said that he was a member of the
Washington bar, was convicted today
before Recorder Golf, in general ses-
sions of swindling the Rev. DR.. E. A.
Bradley, vicar of St. Agnes Chapel.
The conviction breaks down a scheme
that Fremont and confederate work
ed successfully for nearly three years,
in which time they got money from
some of the most conspicuous citizens
of this city. Baltimore and Washing
ton, to carry on the work of an insti-
tuition that had no existence except in
circular that Fremont drew up. The
imaginary institution was called "The
Fremont Polytechnic School for the
Education of Colored Children" and
was represented by Fremont to be at
No, S22 North Columbus street, Alex
andria, Va. Fremont represented
himself as the president and treasurer
and he had curricular showing that
everything from shoemaking and
cooking to astronomy and pathoyogy
was taught.
He started the scheme in 1895, rep
resenting the school to be an expert
ment in uplifting the children of his
race. District Attorney Olcott had In
court today a pile of letters. Among
those who said they had given money
to Fremont were DR.. Morgan Dix, ex,
President Cleveland's physician; VIM.
B. Hornblower, H. H. Cammann, Ev-
erett P. Wheeler, James c. Carter and
the Rev. Drs. Henry Van Dyke and
c. D. w. Bridgeman and R. Heber
Newton, These are only a few OF
thousands that Fremont IS alleged to
have swindled.
He got alleged Communications OF
the fictitious school from Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee and United States Senator John
w. Daniel. He got out a circular
bearing the names of ninety-one New
Workers, all of whom he had seen and
from whom, it is said, he got money.
He used the Endorsement of Gen.
Lee and Senator Daniel very effective
ly in Washington.
Fremont made his collecting tours
in company with another Colored man,
Iohn Cheshire, who was arrested with
him, but was discharged in the mag
iStrate's court in this city. Fremont
received 3 years sentence in Albany
penitentiary.

Changes That Are Typical and SymptOmat-
&c. what DO They Mean?
John G.. Carlisle, former speaker of
the house and more recently secretary of
the treasury, has just settled in New
York. Mr. Carlisle comes here, it is I'M
derstood, as one Of the legal counsel of
j. Pierrepont Morgan, the greatest con-
uoller Of corporate power in this coun-
try, or in the world.
Speaker Thomas b. Reed, it is said,
has determined likewise to make his
residence in New York at the end OF his
present term. If Mr.. Reed shall come it
will be as the attorney of some great cor
poration OF in the expectation of securing
a remunerauve practice from the COTpO-
raSons doing business here.
These changes are typical and SynptO-
matte. What do they mean?
For years Mr.. Carlisle was leader of
the democratic party-a party pledged
by Its name, its traditions, its principles
and its membership to stand for the PEG
pie rather than for the purse potentates,
and to resist the encroachments of a plu-
tOcIacy npon our democratic Institutions.
AS speaker If the house and leader of his
party n the popular branch of congress
Mr.. Carlisle was worthy successor of
that great commoner Of Kentucky, Hen
~ Clay.
How does it happen that John G Car
Isle is ont Of public lite and has become
the attorney of the greatest pluJocIat in
the nation?
Thomas b. Reed, by aptecedents and
early ASSOCIATION, was likewise a repre-
sentative OF the people rather than the
servant and instrument OF the money
power. What has changed the direction
of his ambition and his labors? Has he
become peSsimiSt? Has ne 100 decided
that the struggle against pIutocracy is
hopeless, and that men of brains and
power may as we'll ''make friends Of the
mamuOn Of UnrjghteousnesS?'
Thcse'ara bnt single instances. From
the bench, from the bar. from the coun-
ellis Of government, from our great insti-
