The following interview was origin
ally published in the year 1888. The
lady whose earnest and truthful re-
marks are contained in the interview
is still living, and in the very best of
health and spirits Her words will be
found very interesting:
Miss Maud Changers countenance is
familiar To nearly every one in the
United States. 1t is a face once seen
never to be forgotten. Miss Granger
possesses within herself the elements
of feeling, without which no emotion
can be conveyed to an audience. The
man of news found the lady at her
home in this city and was accorded
quiet welcome.
is ii true, Miss Granger. that you
contemplate a starring tour the com
ing season."
Yes, indeed"
Are you confident your health will
permit such an undertaking?
A ringing laugh was the first reply
to this question. after which she said:
Certainly. 1t is true ! have been Ill
for the past two years, but now | am
wholly recovered Few people can
have any idea of the strain a conscien-
tious actress undergoes in esaying an
emotional part. 1t is necessary to put
ones whole soul into the work in or
der to rightly portray the character.

part ] was playing. The audience con-
Sidered it art. Probably it was, but
those were none the less real tears and
the effect was none the less trying upon
my health
But do you anticipate avoiding this
in the future?'
Not in the least. | expect to have
just as great Il strain as before, but

You speak of the knowledge of how
to retain health Will you please ex-
plain what you mean by that?
You must be aware that women,
by their very natures. are subject to
troubles and Affections unknown to the
sterner sex. The name Of those troubles
is legion. but in whatever form these
troubles may come. they are weak
nesses which interfere with their ann
bition and hope in life. / believe thou
sands of noble women are to-day suf-
fering agonfes of which even their best
friends and relatives know little or
nothing. and when | reflect upon it, /
confess it makes me sad Now all this
misery arises largely from an ignor
ance of the laws of life or NEGLECT to
carefully observe them. | speak from
the depths of a bitter experience in
saying this, and | am thankful ! know

A SALOON ROW.

Battered Up.

Peter Bessard, n Result, Is HofrIDiy
battered Up.
A saloon row created quite an ex-
element III lower Main street last
evening about o'clock, and as re-
suit of it Peter Bessard, a driver OF an
ice wagon for Sloan A McGoVern, was
taken To the city jail in a horribly pat
tered condition, and Jerry Smith ana
Tommy Ryan were arrested and
locked IN in the city jail on u charge
of assault in the third degree.
Bessard and Frank Lindsey, another
driver for the same hrm, were drinking
in the saloon run by Nick Francis,
when Bessard got into trouble with
smith and Ryan. They doubled up on
him and a general saloon fight ensued
in which glasses and bottles We're
thrown indiscriminately and everyone
seemed to be after Bessard. Lindsey
tried to interfere as Il peacemaker and
got severely handled for his pains.
Someone ran out in the street and fired
off q gun to attract the police and
officer McGlynn hurried TO the scene.
by the time he reached the saloon
big crowd had congregated and the
excitement was great, as the impress
sion had gone out that murder or
something close TO il had been COM
mitted.
officer McGlynn found Bessard lying
on the floor bleeding profusely, ana
getting him on his feet took him to the
city Jail DIR. Shutz was sent for to
attend to his injuries, which were
found not to be serious, although he
had several ugly gashes in his face

BUTTE News.
NEARLY CAME TO BLOWS
Attorneys Clash in Justice Lau-
randeau's Court.
HAD A HOT WAR OF WORDS
Both of Them Threatened With Fines
for Contempt OF Court-Cason Calls
Burbage Pettifogger and
the Fun Begins.

ATTORNEYS ". u. Burbage and G. +.
rason clashed in Justice Laurandeau's
court yesterday and nearly came to
blows before the war Of words ceased,
At one time Judge Laurandeau felt
called upon. because of the language
INDUCED in by the combatants, to call
a halt and to admonish the angry at
torneys to observe little better deco
rum or he would be compelled To fine
both for contempt.
The attorneys met in case entitled
Pinkston vs. Levy in which a petty
amount was involved. II appears that
the case was formerly brought in Jus
tice Tranp's court and a change of
venue asked for but the case was
never transferred, owing To the failure
to pay. the costs that had been in
CURED. and Attorney Cason was COM
PEELED to begin a new suit in order TO
bring the case before Justice Lauran-
deau.
The case came up yesterday morning,
and Attorney Burbage moved to quash
the summons owing to some Irregular
ity concerning II. During the argu-
ment on the motion Attorney Cason got
warmed up, and brought up the change
of venue matter. accusing Attorney
Burbaee Of having agreed to pay the
costs in Justice Traps court upon the
change of venue being agreed upon
and then failing to do SO. He grew
heated as he proceeded and wound up
by calling opposing counsel "a petit
logger, which aroused the slumhering
wrath in the breast of Mr.. Burbagc,
who came back by accusing Attorney
Cason of unprofessional conduct in
himself having served the summons in
the case, which he had no right to do.
You're a id liar, shouted Mr..
Cason, jumping to his feet.
And your re -- --- liar yourself.
responded Mr. Burbage, shaking his fist
in his venerable opponents face.
Judge Laurandeau had been sitting
quietly hack in his chair, feeling highly
entertained by the tilt up to this time.
but when the lie was passed in such
vigorous language he felt that the
court had some dignity To be sustained
and. interfering, informed the beiliger-
ents that if he heard any more such
language he would fine both Of them
for contempt.
That ended hostilities for the time be-
ing. and Judge Laurandeau decided the
motion in Lawyer Burbages favor and
adjourned court. As soon as there was
no longer any danger of mourning the
official wrath of the court the lawyers
went at it again. and exchanged crimi-
nations and reeriminatons till a iistic
set-to again seemed imminent. but At
torney cason finally walked away and
left his wrathful opponent in posses
sion of the field. Both subsequently, re-
turned and apologzed to Judge Lau-
randeau for the scene they had cree
ated in his court room.
