A JACK OF ALL TRADES.
The Versatility of 81 Frenchman of
the Eighteenth Century.


In times long gone by active men
combined many vocations. The barber
in those days was also the dentist and
often performed other duties A sign
discovered in southern France recently
shows how versatile it was possible for
man to become. The sign dates back
to the last century and reads
Isaac Macarie, barber, wigmalxer, healer
sacristan, schoolteacher, blacksmith and OBJ
stetrician; shaving, sou; hair cutting, 2
sous; powdering and pomading very cheap for
pretty, we'll bred young women; lamps lighted
by the year or quarter; teaches the mother
tongue in the best methods: instructs in sing
ing and shoes horses with master hand;
makes and repairs boots and shoes; teaches
the young to play the oboe and jewsharp; cuts
out corns and applies blisters, plasters or cups
at lowest prices; supplies purging medicine at
l sou; visits houses to teach the cotillen and
other dances; sells sachet powders of all kinds
at wholesale and retail; also all kinds of sta
tionery, shoe polish, sailed herrings, spiced
bread, bristle brushes, mousetraps OF wire
and other material heart strengthening roots,
potatoes, sausages and other kinds of yegeta-
bles
One would naturally think that all
those talents and occupations would be
enough for one man. But not so in the
case of NJ. Macaire. A postscript on the
sign reads:
l teach geography and foreign commerce ev-
cry Wednesday and Friday With Gods help.

EXPERT IS UNDER FIRE
Sharp Cross-Examination of the
States Sheet Anchor i'm
the Quay Trial.
EX-sENAT0R's CASE LOOKS BETTER.

Goldsmith Makes Many Admissions That
Put New Face on Number of the Al
legged Crooked Transactions = Counsel
Even Uses the "Red Book" He Fought
So Hard Asainst-Quay Loses Fourteen
Votes at Harrisburg.
Philadelphia, April 19-The defense
had its innings yesterday in the trial of
Senator Quay, and it made the most of
its opportunity. Expert Accountant
Meyer Goldsmith, the commonwealth
witness, was under scorching fire of
ss-examination all day. Nearly all
the apparently damaging entries at
tached to Quay's name or account in
the bank as testified to by Goldsmith in
direct examination were explained away
or greatly modified by the statements Of
the commonwealth own witness Judge
Biddle's ruling had the effect of confin-
ing testimony tending to show the exis-
tence of conspiracy between Quay,
Haywood and Hopkins, as charged in
the indictment, to the two years ended
Nov II, 1898,
Valuable Evidence for Quay.
Lawyer Shields got from the witness
the admission that if Hopkins had prop
erly credited Quay's account with
amounts that belonged there the books
would show that at the beginning of the
alleged conspiracy, Nov. IT, 1895. the
senator owed the bank only 1926, in
stead eff over $4,000 as is al
legged. Taking up the allegation
that Quay had borrowed $1S5,000 during
the settlement period" ended Oct. 81
1897, the last settlement before the bank
closed, Shields forced from Goldsmith,
piece by piece facts tending to show
that in nearly every instance the
amounts charged to Quay were really
loans to other persons, politicians most
ly, for whom Quay Endorsed. Where
there was a definite loan to Quay the
repayment was clearly proven.
Claim of the Prosecution.
In this connection it might be well
to say that District Attorney Rothermel
claims that he has clearly established
the fact he started out to prove-name-
ly, that 100000 of the state deposit in
the bank was set aside for the use of
Quay, and whether he used it himself
or loaned it to others is not material in
proving the conspiracy.
Shields Tackles the RED Book
Shields put a different complexion on
the entries in the red book" by COM
polling the witness to admit that many
of his figures were not proven by entries
in the regular bank books, but were the
result of what he practically acknoWl-
edged to be his ''gusses'' at the mean
ing Of certain unintelligble figures writ
ten in the red book" Goldsmith was
still on the stand when court adjourned
for the day and the questions put to him
near the close were full of promise of
interesting developments. Much of the
sting was taken out of the famous
shake the plum tree" telegram by the
statement that the purchase of Metro
politan stock contemplated thereby was
made with $4,000 of Quay's own mon
ey, his deposit at that period exceeding
100000.
