RESEMBLANCE 70 FAMILY.

Though the greater part OF Ma
dame Jerome Bonapartes life was
spent in Europe, and she was for
time on terms of considerable intimacy
with his family, she never met Jerome
but once when they passed each other
in the gallery of the Pitt palace in
Florence, Jsrome with the Princess
Catherine upon his arm. Though they
recognized each other, they passed
without greeting Jerome eXclaiming,
"That was my American wife. Je-
rome Napoleon, son OF his American
wife. was frequently his guest, ana
was treated with much kindness by
the Princess Catherine. Jerome, how
ever, added practically nothing to this
sons material comfort, much TO his
mothers clagrin, and at his death IN
1860 it was found that he had not
even mentioned his name in his Will,
a lack Of recognition which wounded
both mother and son in more pro
found sense than his lifelong failure
10 make provision for him had done.
50 great was his sons resemblance
to his family. and particularly to the
emperor. that the charge d'affaires OF
France at Amsterdam, in 1920 refused
his mother a passport for him TO
tlayel through France 1t was
strange coincidence that Madame
Jerome Bonaparte herself should bear
a remarkable resemblance to the Bona
parte family, particularly to Napoleon
and Pauline, even having some Of their
mannerisms.-V Virginia Tatnall Pea

THE GRAND JUR r.

Tue Jefferson county grand jury convenes Monday, September the 17th. There are number of i'm portant matters to come before tue grand jury at this term; but the most i'm portant is matter referred to it by the last grand jury for in vestigation aud indictment.
 To it's report the grand jury Of last A pril submitted the matter of election frauds growing out of the March primary to the September grand jury in the following Ian guage:
 Regarding election frauds that you recommended 10 the jury to sinyestigate, we have to report that in the following townships. White ville and Jefferson, We found evi- dences of Irregularities: and also evidences of fraud in Washington and Bolivar, but we did not have time to obtain sufficient evidence tn Narrant ns taking steps in so grave
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1900-09-16

a matter, ard thinking at the same time that more time should be given in order to go through and thor oughly sitt all evidence in every case, we hereby refer the election matter to the next grand jury.
 This is matter that should be investigated without fear or favor by the grand luly during its Sep tember term. If frauds were com mitted in the March primary, winch was a legalized election, and as alleged by the last grand jury, the perpetrators of said alleged frauds should be indicted aud brought to the bar of justice for tampering with the sacred liberties of the people
 It is matter that cannot and should not be lightly overlooked. Since the last two primaries there has been great hue ard cry made about fraud.
 The charge that frauds were com mitted in certain townships ia this county ln the last primary has the sanction of a grand iury report; all the color of truth. If it is true, the culprits who are disgracing the fair name of their party and county should be indicted and sent to the peniten tiary as lesson and a warn ing for the future; if not true, then the honest Democracy of the county should be ulpated from so serious a charge and stop put to the cry of fraud after every primary elec- tion.
 Such proceedings as have charac terized our last two primaries are doing a positive injury to Pine Bluff. They have estranged friends, embroiled a community aud are re tarding the growth and progress of our city and county. The honesty of our people has been impeached, and we are suffering in reputation at home and abroad.
 For the sake of the honest name of Democracy and the reputation of

our people, the graod jury should impartially investigate at it's Sep tember session the matter referred to it by the last grand iary, aud indict every individual, regardless of persons or parties, who commit ted any fraud in that primary.
 The grand jury, our prosecuting attorney and our circuit judge will fail.to perform their sacred and sworn duty, and prove recreant to the trust conided to their keeping if they let a single guilty man es cape.
