AN UNwHoLEsoME ROMANCE.
The Story of Mrs. Langtry is Not One to

The Story of Mrs. Langtry is Not One to
be Commended.
The death of Edward Langtry in an
English lunatic asylum ends a romance
that should never Lave reached more than
the beginning. When Edward Langtry
married Emily lie Breton, the clergy
mans daughter, there was reason enough
to suppose that both were Going we'll.
He Was gaining beautiful wife and a
young woman of apparently modest
tastes and charming virtue She was
giving her life into the keeping of an
English gentleman of some means and cul-
ture. For alittle while existence was all
that could be desired. Then vanity en-.
tered the Eden, and the beauty of the
young wife made an impression in Lon
don which she was unable to withstand.
She became popular in high society, and

LangtIy took to the stage, toured Amer

husband, lost beneath the fierce light of
publicity that enveloped his wife, took to
gin.
Edward LanRtry's sins were such as
told upon mind and body, and he finally
landed in madhouse, there to die His
wife courted popular applause and gained
certain measure of it. Whether she
ever attained any skill as an actress or
not, she achieved more or less fame as a
good-looking woman, and drew an audi
ence as mucn from her notoriety as from
anything. She was a pioneer In the
school of acting which includes John L.
sullivan, Steve Brodie ard Fitzsi,nmons
But she made money, because curiosity
brought patrons to the playhouse. On the
day her husband was sent to the asylum
she won fortune on the races, and when
he died she was giving a sporty dinner to
celebrate her gains. There is no moral
to the story. 1t is unwholesome and un-

the extreme. The left bank of the river
between Berber and Metmmeh was prac-

offending tribe and took the pretty women
to their harems, after sending $50 select

The British government has rejected

many would have joined. All present
prospects of international coinage have
gone by the board The jig is up-the
sham at an end. Great Britain decides
the point for the civilized world. The
decision will disappoint no intelligent
student Of timetallsm. The interna-
tional commission was makeshift and
stop-gap. 1t was supported by Republi-
cans in Congress to carry out the pledges
OF their platform, which were made to
hold the Republican slverites. The sill
yer men in Congress voted for it, not that
they believed it could accomplish any
thing, but to give the administration
power to do all it asked and at once dis

AS A HABITUAL CRIMINAL.
New Hampshire People Surprised by a
Law and it's Power. :;

New Hampshire People Surprised by a
Law and it's Power. =
New Hampshire judge the other day
sentenced man to forty-five years in the
State prison as habitual criminal. The
offender had been indicted on three
counts for breaking and entering, and,
being convicted upon each count, the
judge made the penalty fifteen years for
each,. or forty. five years in jail. The
county solicitor had previously called the
attention of the court to. the mans Grim
inal record. and, in reply..to the judges
question, the accused admitted that he
had been in prison twice before, and that
this would make his third term.
The action of the judge imposing what
is practically life sentence, as the man
is now about forty years old, created much
surprise in New Hampshire, as people
did not know that the courts have the
right to punish an offender as an habit
ual criminal. Yet an act was passed in
1898 which expressly provided that "any
person who has twice been convicted of
crime. sentenced, and. committed 10 prison
for terms not less than three years each,
shall, upon conviction of q felony COM
mitted in this State, and upon proof OF
such former convictions, sentences, and
committals. he deemed to be an habitual
criminal, and shall be punished by i'm
prisonme Mt in the State prison for term
not exceeding fifteen years. The aston
ishing statement is made by the Concord
Monitor that, although this act went
upon the statute book four years ago, the
recent sentence was the first ever imposed
by any judge in the State. Such is mod
ern legislation, as administered by mod.
ern courts.
