The death OF James Payn removes from con-
temporary English letters a novelist and jour
nalist who never achieved greatness. but for
whom thousands Of readers have felt pc
culiarly warm affection. To call him genial
writer is to up his merits and to explain
his popularity. His novels-which make n long
list-werc never comparable to those OF his
famous Victorian contemporaries. yet each one
brought a happy hour 10 the discerning public.
Facle as he was, he never descended to clap
trap, and II the books which he wrote so easily
and which were read 30 easily remain among
the minor productions OF the time they are at
any rate thoughtful. wholesome and intelli-
gently optimistic. They will not soon be for
gotten. Mr. Payn was FOR many years the Ed-
tor Of "Chambers's Journal" and The Cornhill
Magazine" He showed himself. in tho manage
ment OF the latter periodical particularly, q
worthy successor to Thackeray welcoming new
writers and recognizing with cordially every
thing that was fresh and human and cheerful.
His dscursive talk In the pages OF The Lon
don Illustrated News" for a long time one
Of the hrst pleasures OF the reader OF English
journals. Mr. Payn loved animals almost as
much as he loved human beings. His was a
tender, gentle nature. and the readers he amused
for so many years were all his devoted friends
His death will be universally regretted.

Nevertheless Lord de la War; Ii
Warned Not to Do 1t Again.

LONDON, Aug. lin the queens bench
division of the high court of justice today
Justice Wright acquitted Earl de ia War;
and Mr.. Broadley Of the charge OF con-
tempt Of court In an alleged attempt TO
induce Ernest Terah Hooley. the bank
rupt company promoter. TO falsfy his evi
dence in the bankruptcy court. The learned
judge said however, that both were blan-
able and he mulc;ed them In costr. Justice
Wright said that while he must absove
Earl de la War; Of the charge of bribery,
he must hold that the earl had wrongfuily
tried 10 induce Mr.. Hooiey to correct some
statements made by him in the bankrupt;
cy proceedings. and had wrongfuily Prem
ised to help Mrs. Hooley.
Mr.. Hooley the judge said ought not to
be regarded ms a mere liar. scattering
statements and ordinations without :orn-
dalton. as had been suggested by the re-
spoDdents, but as on the witness stand he
was rash, reckless and inaccurate. appear
ing sometimes TO be suffering from illu-
SONS. in Il hopeless attempt TO disen:an-
gle the true from the false. his evidence
was unsafe to act upon. especially In a
case of sGch Importance.
Mr.. Bradshaw's evidence as to Earl de
Ia Wars proposal to help Mrs Hooley
was remarkable although Mr.. Bradshaw
had no cause TO testify falsely. 1t must
be remembered the judge continued. that
the earl had an overwhelming motive fer
obtaining Mr.. Hooley's retraction. He
could not believe that il was out of mere
charity that Earl de In War; had prom
iSed Mrs Hooley Glt.0. On the contrary
he was forced 10 the conclusion iha. the
promise was connected with the earI's
strong and natural desire 10 clear himself
from Hooleys accusations. Nevertheless
he acquitted Earl dc la War; of the impl,-
tation Of inducing Mr. Hooley 10 testify
falsely.
With regard to alleged bribery. he could
not wholly absolve Earl de la War;. with
regard TO the money the earl received. pOS-
s.hly the latter believed il was received for
services rendered or as . gift from Hooley
The judge saia he supposed that was gen
orally the way naU5S were paid FIR bat
So these proceedings were Only intended 10
vindicate justice. i, would be a sufficient
punishment for Earl de Ia Wars indis-
cret!on II the court ordered him to pay the
costs
With reference to Mr. Broadley's case
Justice Wright considered him he s1.d
much more guilty in asking Mr.. Hoolsy
falsely 10 gay that ne had made a rctrac-
ton without communicating with Earl de
n War;. Mr.. Broad,ey was guilty ~ sub
orna,ion OF perjury. and while the cou-;
was in dou5; whether he ought not 10 deal
very differently with Mr. Broadley. he had
concluded 10 make the same order in
Broadley's case as IN the Earl ae la
Wars.
