PRINCE soMAYou IN THE CITY.

A colored man of more than ordinary
interest is TO spend Sunday in the city.
He was born prince, and in line for
rulership of his tribe, In Western Africa.
At the age of fourteen, he ran away, and
for the first time In his life saw men
wearing clothes. He was attracted by
the rich traders, and was seized by an
intense desire to know their language.
He bscame errand boy for an English
trader named Clinton, and later, when
he desired name like the WHITE folks,
called himself Lewis Clinton. After two
years with this trader, Samayou attached
himself to the American Protestant
Episcopal Mission. then in charge of Bis
hop Penick. and then completed his name
by Introducing Penick as middle name.
The mission owned a coffee farm and
also fishing boats, and Lewis was en-
pioyed there for several years, finally be-
coming head boatman. As he learned
more OF the English language and more
OF the ways Of the white man, his desire
grew stronger to become thoroughly &C
qnainted with their civilization. Ar.
Judgements wers made for him to come
to America. and Bishop Peniok who had
previously returned here introduced him
to lifting school where he spent five
years. Then, after spending year al
work, he entered Bates college. He com
pls1ed the regular college couisesin Cobb

Nice Question Raised.

In an equity suit begun yesterday
for Mrs. Bridget Casey, of Luzerne
street, by Attorney John F. Murphy, a
question was raised on which there are
few decisions. In 1892 Mrs. Bridget
I.ally died and left her property 20 her
eldest daughter, Mrs Bridget Casey,
of Luzerne street, specifying that the
Mrs. Casey should provide for her faith
er, the husband Of the testator, during
his life.
Mrs. Casey accepted the trust and
took out letters testamentary and has
administered the trust ever since. Re-
Gently the father made claim to his
right to life interest in the estate OF
his deceased wife and has been inter
fering with her management Of the
property. Yesterday through her at
torney she made an application for an
injunction to restrain her father from
interfering with her management OF
the estate, A rule to show cause why
preliminary injunction should not be
granted was allowed and made return.
able on Monday. June Il.
1t is claimed by Mrs. Casey that hel
father is prevented from claiming his
life interest in the estate at this time
by the fact that he for seven years ac,
Cepted the provisions OF the will with.
out protest.

Ask for New Trials.

Reasons for a new trial We're yester-
day filed by Attorneys Vosburg & Daw-
son for Mrs. Katharine Maud Rey-
nolds, of West Scranton, who on Sat
urday was convicted of forgery. The
reasons are as follows:
First-'The learned trial judge erred
in refusing the motion of the defend
ants counsel az the close of the COM
monwealth's evidence to take the case
from the jury.
Second-In the admission OF evidence
tending to show that a forgery was
committed by the defendant, to the det-
riment or injury Of another person, viz,
A. Reynolds, her husband.
Third--In the admission of documen-
tary evidence in the nature of receipts.
checks and other writings unconnected
with this case, without proper identi.
fcation.
Fourth-In a failure to give the jury
binding instructions as requested in the
defendants first point.
Fifth--In the general charge to the
jury, that under the evidence on the
part of the prosecution, IL they believe
1t, a verdict of guilty might be rend-
cred against the defendant.
Sixth-In charging the jury in sub
I stance, that wife could be held guilty
| of forgery under the law, If she forged
the name of her husband to a receipt
and secured credit or money to his
| prejudice thereby.
Reasons for a new trial were also
| filed by Attorney L. p. Wedeman in
| the case of Peter Lutconsky, alias
| Peter Roach who on Saturday was
convicted of robbery and sentenced tc
three years and six months imprison'
ment in the penitentiary.
1t is set forth in the reasons that the
verdict is not in accordance with the
| evidence; that the prosecutors reputa
tion for truth is bad, and that the de-
| fendant had no time to prepare hi
case, as he was brought in on a capia'
| on the day he was convicted. He sup
| posed the case against him was settled

FKANYL1N's MORAL SCHEME.

In his autobiography Franklin relates
how he formulated series of rules for
the government of his life and the forma-
ton of character. He arranged these
rules and schooled himself in them by
keeping "a daily record, taking one virtue
for a week at time and keeping himself
marked upon it. He thus devoted him
self to the mastery of one branch one
week In every thirteen and four times a
year. His scheme was as follows:
/. Temperate-Eat not to dulness; drink
not to elevation.
2. Silenoe--Speak not but what may
benefit others or yourself; avoid trifng
conversation.
5. Order-Let all things have their
places; let each part of your business
| have It's time.
a. Resolution-Resolve 70 perform with
out fail what you resolve.
| 8. Frugality-Make no expense but to
do good to others or yourself; /. e., waste
| nothing.
6. Industry-Lose no time: be always
employed In something useful; cut off all
unnecessary actions.
| 7. Sincerity-Use no hurtful deceit
| think innocently and justly; and, If you
speak. speak accordingly.
] 8. Justice-Wrong none by doing in
| juries, or emitting the benefits that are
your duty.
| 9. Northumberland extremes; forbear
resenting injuries so much as you think
| they deserve.
TO- Cleanliness-Tolerate no uncleanli-
ness in body, clothes or habitation.
| IL. Tranquility-Be not disturbed at
trifies, or at accidents common or un-
| avoidable.
| IL. Chastity
18. Humility-Imitate Jesus and So
crates.
