Jefferson Davis Window Un-
yelled.

Richmond, Va, April list.
PauPs Episcopal Church, ''the
Westminster Abbey OF the South, -
to-day was the center of attraction,
the occasion being the unwilling of
a handsome memorial window to
Jefferson Davis, presented by vol
untary subscription by the people
of the South. Not the least attrac-
tive feature of the occasion was
the presence of General Fitzhugh
Lee, accompanied by Miss Evange-
lima Cosio y Cisneros. Not one
fifth of the persons who applied
could gain admission to the crowd
ed building.
The ceremonies were very im-
pressive, including an elaborate mu-
steal programme and the celebration
of the Lords Supper.
The Rev. William Dame, u. D.,
of Baltimore, delivered a sermon
which was largely historical in
its character. General Dabney H.
Maury, the oldest living Confed-
crate Major General, unveiled the
window. Mrs. Davis and her
daughter, Mrs. Hayes, sat in the
pew occupied by them during the
Confederacy.
When General Fitzhugh Lee,
with Mrs. Lee, Miss Ellen Lee and
Miss Cisneros, entered the church
most of the audience rose to their
feet. When they left the chuuch
General Lee sustained the lettering
form of Gen. Maury on his arm.
Then followed the most remarka-
bic scene ever witnessed in Rich
mond. The street was crowded |
almost from curb to curb for squares, |
ana every minute General Lee was
forced to stop to shake hands with
men and women, who blocked his
way in their eagerness to greet him,
while the young women of the party
were the targets for thousands of
eyes.
AT the w estmoreland Club, Gen
erals Lee and Maury stopped and the
young women continued their walk
toward General Lees residence,
many blocks away, the fashionable
street being lined six or eight deep
with men and women to see them as
they passed. II
General Lee called on Mrs. Davis
this evening, and was soon engaged J
in an impromptu reception, lasting
for two hours.
A number of prominent Cubans q
accompanied the Lee party to Rich a
nond, and are stopping at the JEFF o
erson Hotel. They include Senior U

Gen Lee has received thousands
of applications from men who want
to serve under him inCuba, and there
is no doubt he will attract an i'm
mense following.

CAPT. JACK CRAWFORD.
He EntertaIns a Pleased Audience in
Post los Lecture Course

Captain Jack" Crawford, warrior,
scout, newspaper correspondent and en-
tertainer. was the attraction which
drew a fair-sized audience to Mechanics
hall Friday evening, this being the
fourth in the series of lectures which
George H. Ward Post No. 10, G. A. R.,
has been giving.
Capt. Crawford entertained his audi
ence with number Of bright anecdotes,
with stories of his life as boy Of 16 in
the army, as a scout on the plains and
as courier for newspaper correspond
ents. His stories were told in a very
pleasant manner his audience seeming
to enjoy every word he uttered.
He declares himself not thoroughly en-
rapport with the young Indian fighter
who fights so bravely through the me-
dunn of yellow covered literature and
he does not, like Horace Greedy, advise
the youth to go west and arrow up with
the country, for In listening to some Of
his stories one gathered the impression
that the west was already quite grown
up, for contrary to Mr.. Owen Wistar,
Capt. Crawford declares it is no longer
customary to kill your man before he
has had time to apologize for nigging
at cards or horse stealing, and that
most of the persons who are doing the
east WITH lHOSe tales are ldAlrS'
Capt Crawford declares he was one
of the first men to go into the Black
Hills at the time Of the gold discovery
there, and the only reason he was not
with Gen. Custer at the time of the
massacre was because he was sent with
a sample of gold to Chicago to be as
sayed.
Most exciting was his tale Of carrying
the story of the fight between the In
dams and Gen. Merritt's command, near
Deadwood, to FIT. Laramie, distance
of $50 miles, how he braved death and
starvation, yet succeeded in his at
tempt and received Communications for
so doing.
Capt Crawford, although a man con-
siderably over so and showing plainly
the result of his frontier life, Is plan
ming to head an expedition to the Klon-
dixie in the coming March.

UNIQUE EXHIBITION.
The Artisans of Belmont Church Make
Showing of Their Products.

The mechanics exhibition at Bel
mont Church, Friday evening, was very
unique as well as thoroughly successful
and enjoyable. The Sunday school
room, where the exhibition was held,
was crowded throughout the evening
with interested visitors.
The exhibits were made by several of
the leading manufacturing establish
ments of the city, and were procured
through the personal efforts of the COM
mittee, some member of which is con-
neeted with the firm who made the eX-
hibit. One of the largest displays was
that Of the Whitconb Envelope Com
pany of this city 1t consisted Of a
large collection of envelopes of all sizes,
shapes and colors, artistically ar
ranged. There was also some
Of the machinery used in the
manufacture of these very necessary
articles of every day use.
Another exhibit that proved of very
general interest was made by w, F.
Langill who is connected with the G. R.
StobbS printing Office. In addition to
type, galleyS, FORMS etc, there were
specimens of the linotype machines and
also a matrix page of the Worcester
Daily Spy. Representations of printing
presses from the small hand press to
the mammoth Hoe press such as is used
by the big papers of the country were
shown.
The Washburn & Moen Manufacture
ing Company had an exhibit of some of
tine products Of their mills. There were
wire and cables of all sizes, from the
inch and half cable down to copper
wire as fine as hair.
A parlor aquarium made by William
Chadwick, in his spare moments at
tracted great deal of notice. It was
made almost entirely of metal, with a
glass tank about two feet square, in
which q dozen or so gold fishes swan
about. Above the tank was a Inlnia-
ture fountain from which water flowed
In graceful curves.
Deacon Thompson, once a missionary
of China, had an exhibition of num-
Der of relics from that far eastern coun-
try, and w. j. Doe showed some Of the
relics of the civil war These COM
prised the principal exhibits, but there
We're a large number of smaller, but
none the less interesting displays.

A FAST ROAD MARE SOLD.
Charles |, Newton's Amy Goes to ProvI-
dence Parties for Campaigning.

Charles |, Newton's Amy Goes to Prov-
dence Parties for Campaigning.
Charles I. Newton sold Thursday to
A. w. Davis of Providence his brown
mare Almy. The sale was one OF the
quickest that has been made in this city
for a long time Wednesday afternoon
Mr.. Newton was called up by telephone
by Mr.. Davis, whom he did not know
and whom he had never seen, and was
asked to place a price upon his mare.
AS Mr.. Newton had no intention of sell
ing her, he hesitated, and then put a
figure on her. Mr.. Davis announced it
was perfectly satisfactory to him, and
said a man would come up Thursday
morning with the money.
Mr.. Newton had turned the mare out
for the winter, and she had not had a
harness on her since last October. She
was shipped to Providence in charge of
one of Mr.. Davis men during the at
ternoon.
Almy was one Of the most elegant as
well as one of the speediest road mares
in the city Although never worked for
speed in her life, Mr.. Newton one day
soon after purchasing her, hitched her
to light road cart and drove over to
the track. There she stepped a quar-
ter alongside of Timber Boy in SO Sec
onds. 1t is understood that Mr.. Davis
will use her for campaigning purposes.
She is seven years old, stands
about 151 hands high and weighs
when in road condition, about
935 pounds. Today, however, she
will probably tip the scales at an
even thousand pounds. She is sired by
Lumps, 2:21, he by Gorge Wilkes.
Almy's dam was a daughter of Lord
Nelson. In head and general conform
alton, she much resembles her noted
sire. Mr.. Newton had owned Amy for
nearly two years, and had several OPP
portunities to sell her.

The old city hall looks gloomier and

as little is being done to keep things up
as possible, in view of the nearness Of
completion of the new structure Occu-
pants Of the offices, particularly those in
the basement, are counting the days
when they will be able to move. When
the occasion takes place there will be
general rejoiclngs. and possibly a

SENSIBLE WOMEN.

the Miss Gillette Case.

Sorosis Club Deny ANY Connection with
the Miss Gillette Case.
The following letter has been received
from the Sorosfs Club at Fitchburg,
which the Spy prints with pleasure:
Fitchburg, Jan. 9th, 1898
To the Editor of the Spy:
VIII you please correct the statement
made in the Jan. 4th item from 'Regu-
lar Spy Correspondent stating that the
petition against the admission of Miss
Gillette to the bar Of Worcester county
was presented to the Sorosis Club and
literally signed" The club has taken
no action in the matter, as the president
and many of the members do not feel
called upon to take any part whatever
in this unfortunate affair.
Respectfully yours.

MRS. LIVERMORE'S VIEWS
"If Miss Gillette is denied admission
to the bar on account of her reputation,
then the men should be dealt with after
the same manner" This Is what Mrs
Mary A. Livermore said last evening,
when asked her opinion.
Mrs. Livermore further said; I have
not followed the case very closely; in
deed I know little about it. Women,
as a rule, are apt to be unjust in their
estimates of each other; often without
any good foundation a rumor becomes
associated with a womanS name, and
she suffers grievously without cause. 1

sets. l attracted attention by speak

above reproach
There should be one standard Of mo-
rality for both sexes. What is bad for
a woman is also bad for man, and
vice versa. 1 see no reason why all men
candidates for the bar should not be
scutinized as closely as Miss Gillette.
am not familiar enough with the case
to express an opinion, but from what

sufficient grounds for tine action of the
women who are opposing her. Idle ru-

and petty Jealousy finds its way into

Women should be charitable. The
better way would have been to go di-

her against IL. I think when our wom-

other profession, they should be pure.

social Friday evening in Horticultural
Hall and like every event that the slem-
bers Of that prosperous cycle club I'M
dertake, it was a grand success. The
young men of the club have friends by

fairest of the fair sex had turned out
to grace the occasion with their pres
ence.
The hall was fairly crowded all the
evening. Dancing was in order from 9
O'Clock until shortly past 1 this morn
ing, when the twenty-fourth number
upon the program was executed. Then
the merry company sought their wraps
and filed out of the hall, their only re-
gret being that the Vernons socials did
not come more often Haipin & Mar

sic, and during intermission Yeaw ca
tered in the upper hall.

Herbert Bellringer Pleasantly Surprised
by Large Number of Friends.


Herbert Bellringer, one of the board
ers at the Kenmore, was very pleasant
ly surprised Friday evening. He dad
expected few friends in the hotel to
spend the evening with him. They
came, however, in far greater numbers
than Mr.. Bellringer had expected, so
that his own quarters proved too small
and practically the whole hotel was
given over to the visitors. In the party
were a number from Springfield, Bos-
ton and Providence. They brought
with them as a lasting remembrance of
the occasion an elegant diamond ring
and silver match box suitably in
scribed. The presentation speech was
gracefully made by Walter E. Tongue
and the recipient as gracefully respond
ed. Later in the evening light refresh
ments were served and a general good
time enjoyed until midnight.
