An amusing incident occurred in Judge

Ella McGhee against the Big Four Railroad
Company for damages. She asks for 5000.
The plaintiff is colored. and there were a
number OF colored witnesses. One of them
in particular repeated every question asked
before answering it.
The plaintiff complains that as she was
driving near the company's tracks an en-
CINE came along, frightened her horse, and
in the runaway and collision with a tele-
phone pole which followed she was rem
dered unconscious and remained so for
forty-eight hours and suffered permanent
injuries. The attorney. during the trial.
repeated all the answers to his questions.
and the witness referred to insisted on re-
asking each question, the result being
rather amusing. You were with Mrs.
McGhee when this accident occurred?"
asked the attorney.
"Wuz 1 with Mrs. McGhee when the acct
dent occurred? Yes, SIR the witness re-

Where wuz Mrs. McGhee at that time?

Gould she get out? No, sir, should say
she couldn't"
"-And Mrs. McGhee couldn't get out?
What did you do with Mrs. McGhee when
she was helped out?"
What did we do with her? Why, we
rolled her up in a quilt and put her in a
wagon and took her home"
And you rolled her up in a quilt and
took her home, did you? And what became

What became of the horse? The horse

M. DESCHAMPS'S LECTURE.
Mrs. SeyyaII's Ora wing-Room Audience
Greatly Pleased.

One of the most interesting and enter
tanning lectures which French students i'm
this city have been privileged TO enjoy was
given last night. in the drawing room of
Mrs. May Wright SewalTs home, by NJ.
Castor Deschamps, a distinguished critic
of France and a Knight of the Legion of
Honor. He came to this country to de-
liver a series of lectures at Harvard Uni
versity, and is now EN- route TO the Pa
cihc coast, where he is engaged 20 lee
ture. after which he will go TO New Or
leans 10 lecture before the French societies
there.
M. Deschamps, it was agreed by all who
heard him, has a pleasing personality, re-
served and dignified, altogether scholarly
and yet wholly free from those manner
isms which are usually mentioned as pecu-
Harry french. His voice is very clear and
with such distinct pronunciation several
who were unable to understand the French
anguage expressed themselves as highly
pleased with the lecture, and Mrs. Sewall
and her associates were complimented on
the success of their effort in providing the
opportunity.
The lecture was on the theaters of
France. the dramatists. their objects and
effects. The lecture itself showed his per-
feet familiarity with the subject. IL was
first explained that the theaters of France
were not established and maintained there
as in this country, solely for entertainment
or amusement. but primarily for the pur-
pose of studying questions of the home.

ciples and the suppression of evils. His
points were illustrated by giving synopses
from various plays, beginning with NJ.
Dumas. fills. Dumas. he showed, had given
particular attention to home life, and was,
as were others mentioned. an ardent adj
vocate of the divorce laws. With Dumas
and his school he drew comparisons with
Nj. Brieux, who, in his play, La Berceau,'
bitterly attacks the divorce laws, introduc-
ing the deathb scene OF a child, attend
ed by it's mother and step-father. an I'M

given by introducing the work OF other re-
