His Record London Correspondents
When William r. Hearst bought the New
| York journal, he engaged MIR. Marshall
and soon advanced him 10 the very impor-
tant position OF sunday editor at a large
salary. In very short time he made a
marked improvement in every department
of the paper He made an exhaustive
study Of color printing, and no detail was
too small 10 receive Ms personal attention,
such was his enthusiasm in getting out
good paper. The New York World next
secured his services as London correspond
emit, and while in the British metropolis
he covered the queens jubilee, procured
an interview with the governor of the
Bank of England on gold exports TO the
United States and did vast quantity OF
very creditable work
When Richard Croker returned TO Amer
lea few weeks preceding Greater New
York's first mayoralty campaign, Mr..
Marshall accompanied him across the At
lantic and gave The World a daily diary
Of the events of the voyage.
Just at that time The Sunday World
needed good editor, and Mr.. Marshall
was placed in charge OF the paper. He
aided in the installation of The Worlds
$40, 900 color press and not only performed
his usual duties, but spent considerable
time in overseeing the color printing.
When the war with Spain began, Mr.
Marshall was engaged by The Journal as
a war correspondent, and he went ~ the
front with General Skaters army of in
vasion.
Bow From the Queen.
About six years ago Mr.. Marshall mar
ried Miss Judith Berolde, very talented
Young actress who had supported the
Salvini as leading lady and who
created one of the principal parts in tho
successful play blue Jeans. "
Mr. Marshall has always shown great
in his news gathering. When
he went to London for The World the pa
,ers were filled with reports that Queen
Victoria was blind. To settle the question
Mr.. Marshall stationed himself at the side
Il road along which the queen was to
'ide, and when her carriage approached he
cry ostentatiously lifted his hat She
,owcd as she would TO any saluting sub
cot, and her bowling demonstrated con-
lusively that she was not blind. When
.e was shot near Santiago, he called for
!gaiette and coolly dictated his story of
he battle while he was being carried TO
he coast. EARLE HOOKER EATON.

At the conclusion OF the ceremony the
groom handed me small envelope
which supposed contained ny fee.
OF course. I did not open it until got
home. Imagine my surprise when
found, not money, but a liberal chew o.
fine-cut tobacco. My good sense toIt;
me that it was not intended us an in
suit, so awaited developments.
"A fortnight later. when the newly
married couple Ind returned from their
wedding tour, the groom called on ne,

made explanations. It seems that he
was addicted to the use of tobacco ant
had placed little in an envelope for
his needs right after the ceremony. Ec

SEARCH was made in the interior OF
the instrument for mouse's nest. but
none was found. Perhaps the mouse
had only just selected this place and
had not yet begun building when IL was
first attracted by the sound of the
strings. However that may be. it still
comes back. and II comes out and runs
away only whom classical music Is
played, and not for two-steps and that
sort of thing.
CAS- to the accuracy of these facts
there can. of course, be no doubt. The
only question. in my own mind is as to
whether the mouse's failure to come
out wben the two-steps and 20 on are
played really indicates a preference for
the lighter forms of music, or that
er-r-the mouse isn't there"

God Speed the Day.

The news from Washington this
afternoon is disappointing in the ex.
treme. Delay seems to be the order
OF the day with our statesmen. The
patriotic people Of the Nation who
love liberty and justice should arouse
themselves and insist upon action by
the Government. The sinking Of the
Maine should be paid for in Spanish
blood and the independence of Cuba
from Spanish tyranny and cruelty
should be declared and maintained
by all the power of the United states
God speed the day when the murder
Of the sailors o. the Maine shall be
avenged and the people of Cuba
shall be free. .....
Time-serving, money loving, liberty
hating statesmen should be forced to
the rear and none but patriots be put
Oh guard. God speed the day.
