Liquor officers Make Successful Raids
But Nobody Owns the Stuff.

But NOBODY owns the Stuff
officers of Station 1 made a number
of raids yesterday and secured a
quantity of various kinds of intoxicants.
BY a singular coincidence, none of the
persons raided would acknowledge that
the stimulant found on their premises
or in the immediate neighborhood was
their property
At the home of Mary Britt, 116
Shrewsbury street, II bottles of ale
were found in an out building. The
woman denied that the stuff was hers.
Michael Curtin of 1877 Shrewsbury street
was the next victim. A quart of whis-
ky was found in vacant cellar under
his tenement. Patrick Donnelly of q
Spring street Is another who was hon
ored by call from the squad. Three
quarts of whisky and 40 bottles Of beer
were found in vacant room.

AN ACTORS AGE.
How Most Thespians Seemingly Defy the
Hand of Time.

1t is a singular fact that when a
player has been prominently before the
public for a considerable length of
time, greatly exaggerated ideas of his
or her age are apt to prevail. Nodes
ka, for instance, who at her last visit
here was variously estimated as being
81 to 50, has really not quite reached
her Doth birthday. 1t may surprise
many to learn, too, that Ada Rehan
only dates her birth back to 1860, and
has therefore still another year in the
thirties. This impression of advanced
age is doubtless due to the fact that
all actors of distinction are kept so
constantly under public notice that one
imagines their records extend much
further back than they actually do.
On the other hand, who that saw
Julia MarloWe a week ago, would mn
agine her to be "a? Father Times raw
ages apparently have little effect upon
the fair coincidence. Francis Wilson is
the same age; while Charles Fl. Hoyt
is beginning to show every day of his
80 years.
OF the leading men, Maurice Barry
more is 81, John Drew As, Joseph ma
worth A, Robert Hlliard 80, Herbert
Kelley A, Mansfield AZ, Otis Skinner
AZ, and e, Fl. Sothern 30. From this
it would appear that the truly fascin-
ating man is he in whom the efferves-
cence of youth has given way to the
experience of ripper years. Even Ed
ward j. Morgan and j. X. HaCkett the
youngest of the present idols of the
matinee girl, are respectively 2S and
80. The comedians average a little
younger, De Wolf Hopper being So, Sea
brooke 3S, Dan DAILY So, Frank Daniels
SO, Dixey 40, Walter Jones 81. and
Jimmy Powers Sc.
Della Fox can count % birthdays.
and Virginia Earl 26. Maude Adams
will soon be 27. Isabel Irving has
reached 20, and Julia Arthur 20. Bern
hardt is Modjeska's age, Ellen Terry
one year older, while Duse is but 81
Grand old Janauschek lacks but one
milestone of three score and ten, and
Mrs. Kendall reaches this year her half
century Almost everybody has kept
tab on Lillian Russell and knows her
to be 80, and Rose Coghlan makes no
secret of her As years. After all fame
has to be conquered on the stage as
well as in the other professions, and
even an actor rarely acquires it until
his brightest years are gone.

THE PROBLEM OF HEREDIrY

"Heredity" was the subject of dis

for the Study OF Life at the Tuxedo,
New York, on Wednesday.
DR.. Jessie T. Boyle said "Tbere is

FAIR SLAVE OF MORPHINE.

Mrs. Jennie Fordell, handsome and
refined woman, salfconfessed victim
OF morphine. made pathetic address
to the Jury in the Criminal Court, in
Baltimore, on Thursday, when tried for
obtaining money under false pretenseE'
Her operations, which have been go.
ing on for several years, were peculiar.
She went to Mrs. Mary Earring aDo
asked her to take ner as boarder.
Then she represented herself as an
heiress to million.dollar estate, and
showed kilograms from Harrisonburg,
Va, where, she said, she had farm.
She began to borrow money from Mrs.
EarliDg, saying it was to buy medicine:
Mrs. Earling gave her the money, aud
Mrs. Fordell left the 4hse. She did
not return. During the time she re
NAMED she psid no board.
During the trial Mrs. Fordell sat with
hands clasped and an expression of ter.
ror on her face. When she was called
to testify she broke down, and said, sob
bingly to the jury:
81 am a poor woman, without rela-
tive in the world, and haven't long to
live. Gentlemen, I am addicted to the
use of morphine, but for years have
striven to conceal my habit. 1t was
first taken to relieve pain, and the de-
sire for the drug grew on me until |
reached that wretched state in which L
would do anything to get it.
"This was the medicine | wanted,
and have resorted to various means to
obtain it. 1 throw myself at the mercy
of the world. I am one of its women
without will"
The jury was visbly affected, but
found her guilty and sentenced her to
three yesrs in prison.
