roo nUsY WITH OTHER MATTERS

Perhaps the popularity of King Alfred
 isn't really waning in England, but it | is evident that he isn't going to be very enthusiastically celebrated next
 year. The plan was to make the mil | Iennial celebration great one, but the | Lord Mayor of London, in a letter to the Mayor of Winchester, admits sor- rowfully that the subscriptions have
 not been so large as was expected. He
 expresses the hope that they may be
 more liberal by and by, but meanwhile,
 he says, the Memorial Association
 deems it wisest to modify the original
 plans. These included, first, the erec-
 ton of statue at Winchester of King Alfred, and, secondly, tEe erection of a
 museum Of early English history. In connection with the latter it was sug- gested that the ruins of Wolvesey cas- tie and the grounds immediately ad-
 joining it within the exterior walls of the castle should be acquired from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, placed under the guardianship of the corpora ton of Winchester, and thrown open to the public. It was thought that site might be found for the museum on some part of the grounds. It is no longer thought expedient says the Lord Mayor of London, to persevere with the scheme for a museum, as there is not likely to be money enough to pay for one As a matter of fact, the subscriptions hitherto received or promised are not enough to pay for MT. Thornycroft's statue of the King. This deficiency, however, he hopes will be made up in course of time, but he asks the Mayor of Winchester, who rep resents the Ecclesiastical Commission 1 ers to let the Memorial Association | have the Wolvesey ruins at as low a rate as possible. He intimates that they are not worth much anyhow except in the way of sentiment
 England has so much that is modern | to think about just now that it is not | strange that she is not inclined to be l deeply interested in King Alfred and i his times.

C UM B .iCCO.

Chicago is indeed a wicked place. "Gumbacco'' is the latest evidence of it's wickedness. "Gumbacco" is a devilish confection that has been prepared for the boy who wants to chew tobacco and enjoy the luxury of splitting real" to- bacco juice. It has just enough tobacco in it to give it pungency and to enable a boy to acquire the tobacco habit The boy gets large cud of it in his mouth before he goes into the schoolroom. He is not permitted to spit on the floor, and hence swallows the juice, pro- ceeding that results in nausea and vio- lent vomiting. It was through these strange spells of vomiting among boys that the school authorities of Chicago finally located the confection or gum called "gumbacco"
 It is said that hundreds of the little stores around the public school build ings in Chicago have "gumbacco" to sell to the boys. It is bad enough to sell the stuff but just think of the tur- pitude of the man who invented 1t.

COUNT AND FORGER.
He Gets a Five Years Sentence

| He Gets a Five Years Sentence. | Count Toulouse de Lautrec was sen-
 tenced yesterday morning by Judge
 Desnoyers to five years in the peniten-
 tiary for having circulated forged cer- | tificates, knowing them to have been | forged
 MT. Frank Curran. who has been counsel for the accused during the past few weeks, arose as the count was
 called to the bar, and made an appeal for leniency on behalf of his client. He
 stated that the count had said that it
 was through the machinations of a man named Freedman that he was prison-
 err and there was every reason to be-
 lieve that this was true This man. he
 claimed, had defrauded the count. and
 his letters and the evidence of the
 counts wife proved this fact. He said
 that since the count had been placed in
 jail he had acted like an honest man and had not consorted with other crim- inals. In fact, he had got evidence from thieves who were wanted in Cana da, and 1t was on his evidence that an extradition judgment against them had
 lL1 ran appealed to the court to allow the count to be restored to his wife and in- fant child
 The count himself also made an hon. est plea to the court and reviewed the case from beginning to end in the light that was favorable to himself His ap peal for mercy was pitiful in the ex- treme, and he frequently broke down and sobbed.
 Judge Desnoyers listened to his long address with great patience and also bore with him in his constant interrup- tions during the delivery of the sen- tence. However, 1t was evident that His Honor had fully investigated the life, character and crime of the accused and his sentence had been fully deter mined upon previous to coming into court His Honor said: Your position is a terrible one, but you should not have made use of the statements in your pleadings that you have. I have very carefully examined the evidence for the prosecution and for the defence, and must say that, while the evidence for the prosecution is convincing, the | defense has been well handled, both by | Mir Walsh who represented you at | first. and by MT. Curran iatterly. I | have paid no attention to the story that i you have committed bigamy. You have denied it, and I have not used it | against you in coming to the conclusion |

The Boston Herald rises to remark: Amid all the solemn and eloquent trib- utes to the late John Marshall, whose memory will be so widely honored to- day, on the one hundredth anniversary of his installation as chief justcie of the supreme court, let it not be forgot ten that his face always wore an ex- precision of good humor and hilarity, that he was never very studious, rather disposed to take his ease, temperate, yet fond of his bottle of Madeira at dinner, fond of telling or hearing a good story, and as to his dress quite slouchy. This description of him by his faithful biographers does not fully accord with the popular notion of true greatness as 1t is usually depicted in books, but it probably accords with the facts and it serves to remind us that even great statesmen are human be- ings.

FROM WAITER TO AUTHOR.

Prince Kropotkin, the Russian noble
man who is now on visit to this
country, has many adm.ring things TO
say about yong Cork a Russian
writer who has been for some years a
waiter on steamer, and has lived the
life of the navvies and tramps in
Southern Russia. The characters he
describes are taken from the lowest
classes, and are considered powerful
in drawing. 1t is said that Cork Is
almost embarrassed with his popular
ity. Recently he attended the perform
ance of new play by Tschechof in
theater of Moscow. As soon as he was
recognized the audience forgot the
play. All eyes turned in his direction,
and the cheering and clapping OF hands
were incessant. Cork, by no means
fattered by the ovation, grew angry,
and addressed the audience impetuous-
