tors OF the Diamond Match Company,

klns who had been second vice presl-
dent, was promoted to take Mr.. Web

be not the result of any friction or
change of policy on the part of the
controlling interests in the company.

In office for five or six years, and his
private affairs had grown to need more
time than he had been able to devote
TO them. He said he had contemplated
resigning for some time and that his
resignation as officer and director had
been in the hands of the president for
several months before it was accepted.
Mr.. Lindsay is well known Detroit
tinancier, and represents the Richaru-
son estate, which is a large holder OF
Diamond Match stock. He was Sc
lected In consideration of his ability,
and the large holding he represents.

A narration of the laws relating to
the Sabbath and the prosecutions duo
to them would fill a huge volume and
make interesting reading. The rigid
Puritan observance of the Lords day
had it's origin with the Puritans of old
England e id reached it's fullest devel.
opment In Puritan New England, says
Donahoe's Magazine.
None of the laws were more rightly
enforced than those intended to pre-
GENT the 'prophaning of the Lords
day." The old records are full of con-
yictions for violation of them. Capt.
Kimble, of Boston, was in 1856 set for
two hours in the public stocks for his
'1ewed and unseemly conduct" which
consisted in kissing his wife publicly
on the Sabbath day upon the doorstep
of his house, when he had just re-
turned from a voyage after an alb.
sence of three years. The story is
told of Robert Pike, of Amesbury,
that, having to go on journey, he
waited patiently until the sun sank
behind the western clouds on Sunday
evening, and then mounted his horse;
but he had only gone a short distance
when the last ray cleaned through .
break in the clouds, and thu next day
he was brought before the court and
fined.

HER HUSBANDS PARTNER,
Much OF D'Oyley Carte's Success Wa
Due to His Wife's
Efforts.

D'Oyley Carte, the dramatist and
cerely regretted by members of the
dramatic profession, owed much Of
the success he achieved to his wife,
one of the most remarkable women
In her way that ever was associated
with theaters, says the Chicago
Chronicle.
Joining Mr.. Carte's company in a
somewhat subordinate position, she
soon showed a grasp of everything
connected with the stage-so COM
pletely astonishing, indeed, that
everybody used to say Miss Lenoir-
the Frenchified and dramatized YER
sion of her own name of Black-had
the head of a man and the shoulders
OF woman. She could keep ac-
counts in bookkeeper fashion, dress
q piece in way that French dress
maker might envy, bargain with au-
thors-in short, do all sorts and con-
ditions of things in dramatic work,
until in the end she had all the
threads of Mr.. Carte's business in her
hands, and when he and she got mar
ried it was the conclusion of great
business partnership, as we'll as the
Joining together of two people who
had true and abiding affection for
each other.
Inrecent years the business partner
the devoted wife-has had to per-
form the duties of the tireless nurse.
and it was to her soothing hand that
poor D'Oyley Carte owed that allevia-
ton he received during the tedious
journey which lies between constant
i'll health and welcome death.
