MARLOwE'S ROLES.
In Her Dramatic Experience She Has
Played Thirty-Four Parts

Julia Marlowe is in the public eye at this
time more prominently, perhaps. than any
other American actress People who have
hitherto known but little about this young
woman who has leaped suddenly into such
prominence have lately begun to examine
into her past career, in order to learn if her
greatness is only ephemeral or rests upon
a solid basis of actual achievement.
How many roles have you played since
you first made your appearance on the
stage?" Miss Marlowe was asked recently
by one of her admirers who has made this
kind of an investigation into the actresses
theatrical career. Really, L haven't the
slightest idea," said the actress. Please
make a rough guess for me- persisted her
questioner. well, at a rough estimate"
replied Miss Marlowe, 81 should say about
fifteen" "As a matter Of fact" returned
her friend, with an air of triumph "the
number is more than twice that. Here is a
list which 1 have dug out Of old files of
newspapers, several books about yourself
and various histories of the American
stage. and want you TO verify it for me-
Miss Marlowe was greatly surprised to be
+ confronted with the formidable enumera-
ton of parts which she has played, but al
she read the memoranda, all of her many
and varied characterizations came trooping
back into memory and she was able TO
certify TO the correctness OF the long list,
and even 10 add one that had been omitted
Miss Marlowe's large following in this city
will doubtless be interested in recalling
these characters which have at various
times been delineated by their favorite
actress. They are as follows:

CENSUS PROPHECY FULFILLED.
Startling Accuracy of n Harvard Pro-
fessor's Forecast in 17s5.
National Magazine,


Edward wigglesworth, Hollis professor
of divinity at Cambridge, in little
pamphlet published in the portentous year
OF I775, must have had a correct idea OF
the prosperity Of this country, during the
century just closing, as he predicted that
the population of the British American
colonies" in 1900 would be 100000
Included in this estimate was Nova
Scotia, now the Dominion o., Canada
which with its last recorded census result
OF 4,s00090 added 10 the 5000 900 Of the
United States fulfills almost to the letter
the accuracy of the Wiggiesworth proph-
ecy And this somewhat remarkable
forecast was not based upon any species
OF guess work. but upon a well-defned and
clearly-constructed mathematical theory,
which. reduced to plain words can be best
described in the language OF its author-

looked The fact that Julie Blssett,
iattested by Arney, fortified by a
lady and gentleman, issued a
proclamation giving evid ence OF
lingering Silver Republir can vital
,ity. We have forgotten the os-
tensible object of the outbreak,
but that IS of no Gems sequence.
The real purpose was to disabuse
the minds Of such men al Cover

extinct. AS we remember it, the
proclamation went on to argue
that there was enough Silver Re-

it would be folly to throw away
silch an asset as that. Looking
at the matter in a business way,
the argument has merit, and we
believe it would be bes t to keep
enough warmth in the body to
get up one more welding heat.
Furthermore, the Dem ocrats are
going to be very generous next
time. We are sorry, the pro-
clamation escaped on r memory

that English honor and English
prestige will recover from the sad
blow which has been inflicted up
on them. For English rule in the
tropics has been the rule of just,

far than any glory that has been
won by English arms are the tri-
umphs of English justice and Or

ever England has gone she has

The Dutehman remains under

1t may be true that the rule of
England in her crown colonies
has been unfruitful to the mother
land, and that English statesmen
would not favor a renewal of the
experiment if they could begin
anew; but under that rule life, lib
ertY, and property in savage coun-
tries have been secure, and the
worlds better forthe object lesson

TAX CASE APPEALED.
Tho Constitut,onality Of The 1897 AS
sessmeat Law Involved.

The case of Daniel Mel inncss
VS.. Arthur Davis, assessor and
collaboration Elmore county, has
been appealed to the supreme
court, the necessary papers being
filed with the clerk of the court
this week by w, c. HOWE, attor-
ney for plaintiff, The case in
question was the assessment of
Mr.. McGinness' cattle and water
master charges of the assessment
law Of 1897.
On the second Monday Of JAM,
1893, Mr.. McGinness owned 500
head Of cattle, Of which he sold all
but nine head between that and
the second Monday of April. Be
tween the second Monday of Jan.
and the sale the assessor assessed
Mr.. McGinness for 300 head Of
| cattle. Mr.. McGinness refused
to pay the taxes on 7or head,
claiming them not accessible to
him, that the law changing the
time of assessment from April to
January was unconstitutionally
passed. The assessor advertised
| sale of vi. McGinness' lands to
pay the taxes and Mr.. McGinness
brought suit to enjoin the sale.
The defendent demurred to the
complaint and the court sustained
the demurrer to that portion of
the complaint, saying he did not
desire to declare tie law uncon-
stitutional and Mr.. McGinness is
now appealing that part Of the
case to the supreme court.
| Another feature of the case was
that the assessor included in Mr..
McGinness' tax, the water masters
charges for 1898. Mr.. McGin-
ness enjoined its collection on the
grounds that the water master had
refused to give him the amount
of water to which he was entitled
and claimed an offsetin damages,
and for the further reason, that if
collectable at all, they could not
be charged in his taxes of 1898,
but in his 1899 taxes. DEPENDENT
demurred to that portion of the
complaint also, but the court over
ruled that part of the demurrer.
| We are not informed whether
they will appeal Or not.-Mountain-
home Republican.
