Was PERSONALLY" Interested.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
An old Chicago actress returns to town
this week in the person Of Ada Deaves, who
played most Of the spinsters in the Hen
derson extravaganzas years ago at the Chi
cago opera house. She is now a member
Of the Mr.. jolly Of Joliet company.
When Miss Deaves was with the Hender-
son company she employed as a maid an
old colored woman known as "old Black
Hattie In Aladdin, Jr.," Miss Deaves
wore a necklace OF huge rhinestones. One
night Hattie came to the theater bleached
almost white with fear"
Honey, never close de eye all de night
long" she said. You done fergit to lock
up you diamond necklace, SO took it home
and L sit up all de night wild de club in de
hand for fear somebody come in and steal
it."
Miss Deaves did not reply, and Hattie
continued: Am dem good diamonds"
ooh, yes, of the kind"
Well, am dey as good as dey kin be7''
Yes, l guess So.
We'll. am dey as good as dey kin be
without being good?"
And because Miss Deaves laughed at her
Hattie announced that she would resign.

black puss. She has been bringing so much

Janauschek's Lack Of Tact.

From the Chicago Record Herald.
A Syracuse man tells a good story OF
Nine Janauschek, who took occasion re-
Gently to deny that she was starving to
DEATH which was represented to be the case
by a New York newspaper. Janauschek ad-
mts that she is feeble old woman, and
that she has sold most of her jeWelry, but
she is not looking for charity or benefits
yet awhile.
The Syracuse story relates to the time
when she was prominent star. The willy
advance agent went to Syracuse a week
or so before the local theater opened there
for the season and proceeded to fill up the
guileless newspaper men with the statement
that Janauschek had said that she would
open her season in that place or not at all.
Her manager wanted Chicago, but offered
to compromise on Boston or Philadelphia,
but the madame firm.
Naturally, Syracuse was delighted at the
honor. Janauschek got pages Of advance
notices. and when the opening night came
the theater was packed as never before
After the first act ambitious reporter
went behind to interview Nine. JaEau
schek.
Syracuse feels very proud that you have
started here this season. he said, and my
paper would like to tell the people, for you,
why you have so hOnOred u.s.

ny, Il had to open some place"

Fanny Fields Little Deception.

From the London N. A. P.
Fanny Fields during her voyage from
America some weeks ago had determined
TO nave "a real good time In simple
frock of sensible shortness, and with her
hair IN plat down her back. she looked
ana was regarded by her fellow-passengers
as very little girl. She rapidly became
popular; her laugh was the pleasantest
sound heard on board, and she had to d.
vide her tramps round the deck as con-
scientiously as the belle of a ball divides
her dances. But on the last day before
landing Miss Fields determined to make a.
different impression. So she appeared upon
the scene with a slow, demure step, with
her hair deliberately dressed on the top OF
her head and wearing a dark gown with a
long, sweeping train. The transformation
was complete that 1t was only her ire
pressible laughter and dancing eyes which,
In happy Fanny's own words, gave her
away"

A SERIAL STORY.
The Mississippi Bubble" to Be
Printed in the Daily Star.

Beginning with its issue of
October IS The Star will print
as serial in daily installments
Mr.. Emerson Hough's notable
novel, The Mississippi Bub-

According to The Book
man, an accepted authority in
such matters, The Mississippi
Bubble became the best selling
book on the American market
within two months Of its publ
cation. Since that time it has
more than sustained the high
favor with which it was then re-
ceived.
The book has its chief interest
in the career of John Law of
Lauriston, under whose touch
the whole financial system of
France in the days following the
death of Louis XIV was di-
rected toward the new Missis-
sippi colony in America and in
volved in it. That epoch in
French history is one of the
most picturesque in the story of
all Europe. But The Missis-
sippi Bubble" comprehends also
pictures of contemporaneous
life in London and the Canadian
forests. Law was in history a
most attractive and absorbing
figure. Mr.. Hough has given
him a personality which intensi-
. fies this historical interest.
"The Mississippi Bubble" thus
comprises a view of three inter
esting nations at most impor-
tant stages of their development,
the career of an extraordinary
and spectacular historical figure,
and love story of rare charm
and dramatic force.

NEGRO BADLY CUT.
Notorious Woman Jabbed a Knife
Into His Shoulder.

Notorious Woman Jabbed a Knife
Into His Shoulder.
With jealousy as the motive Laura
Green. a negro woman known to the
police as BLACK Laura" stabbed Plen-
ty Taylor, also colored at Perry and
West Broad streets last night. Ac-
cording to the prosecutor the woman
purchased the knife for no other rea-
son than to cut him.
She sent the blade deep into the left
shoulder, and made AN ugly wound.
Later she was found on the West Side,
where she is well known, and was
placed under arrest by Patrolman
Winn. Taylor says that the woman
had been talking about" him to the
denizens of Perry street lane and that
he told her several times that she
would have to keep her tongue still
so far as he was concerned.
Plenty claims that the woman con-
tinued circulating false reports for the
purpose of getting him into trouble
He says that she was induced by Edna
Hurd, notorious negro woman, to buy
a knife and cut him. When he met the
woman last night he told her that she
must stop talking about him. Taylor
says that she answered him by pulling
out her knife and jabbing it into his
shoulder. The prisoner had been ar
rested on a number of occasions and
has served several sentences. She will
be given a hearing by Recorder My

LAW WILL SUFFICE
GREENE AND GAYNos MAY LEGAL
LY BE EXTRADITED.
so SAYS MARION ERWIN.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY SAYS TREATY
PROVISIONS ARE AMPLE.

Conventions Between This Country
and Great Britain, Regarding Ex-
tradition, Cover the Ofenses With
Which the Fugitives Are Charged.
Mr.. Erwin Declines to PrOphesy
as TO the ResuIt-The Law and It's
Interpretation and Enforcement,
He Explains, Are Two Different
Things-Departmen of Justice
and state Now Have the Matter In
Hand.
District Attorney Marion Erwin said
yesterday that under existing treaties
with Great Britain it is legally possible
to secure the extradition of Greene and
Gaynor from their present comfortable
retreat upon the nights of Quebec.
This is a legal opinion only" he
said; whether as a matter of fact we
viii be able to get them back is an
other question. only say that my in
Vestigation and study of the treaties
obtaining between this country and
Great Britain lead me to the conclu-
sion that the United States are enti-
tied to demand the surrender of these
men. So far as the law of the case
goes, l don't think there is anything
in the way of their return to Savannah
to stand trial.
Mr.. Erwin was asked when the au-
thorities at Washington would begin
to take steps to secure Greene and
Gaynor's extradition, but this question
he declined to answer.
1T is a matter for the Attorney Gen
eral and the Department of State" he
said They will move when they see
proper and take such action as they
deem advisable. 1t is no part of my
province or duty
How long will the extradition pro-
ceedings require?" he was asked.
That is too hard a question for me.
1t may be few days or a few weeks
or few months. 1t is just possible
that the department is in no hurry to
move the defendants from Quebec.
They seem to have made themselves
comfortable there and the government
may be willing to let them stay there
until they are wanted here"
MIR. Erwin would not say upon what
treaty with Great Britain the govern
ment would seek to secure the return
of the fugitives. The latest conven-
ton regarding extradition was APP
proved only last year, making the sec
ond in little more than a decade. 1t
is believed that it is upon this last
made treaty that the government
principally relies, as good lawyers have
expressed grave doubts of the posi-
bility of extraditing persons accused
of conspiracy to present false claim
to the United States under the treaty
of 1889.
While the district attorney would not
commit himself on the subject, his
manner, tone and even what he did
not say lent color to the belief that
there will be no trial of the Greene
Gaynor case on May 5. the day for
which it is now assigned. 1t is alto
gether improbable the government will
be willing to try Ed and Will Gaynor
apart from the two principal defend
ants, and it is almost as improbable
that in little more than a month the
government will be able to secure the
extradition of Greene and John Gaynor
from Canada.

TO ENTERTAIN THE CHILDREN.
Odd Fellows Bazaar Continues to
BE Well PatrOnized.

OUO FellOWS bAEAaF continues To
BE Well Patronized.
The Odd Fellows Bazaar continues
to do a good business despite the other
attractions that have been given night
ly since it's opening. The attendance
has not been as large as those inter
ested would like to have it, and hope
to have it before the week closes, but
the booths have been well patronized
by those that have attended, and the
dancing privileges continue to be
sought for as much as on the opening
night, and consequently to bring in a
good sum to the treasury.
The contests, too, are getting along
nicely. in fact the contestants have
done so well that many of them will
be closed tomorrow night, the winner
in each case being announced by 10
o'clock. This means that extra efforts
will be put forth by the contestants
from now on. The races to be settled
tomorrow are that of the diamond ring
for the most popular lady; the sword
contest, that for a boys bicycle, and
the two for dolls. The others will be
closed Saturday night.
The executive committee have added
to the attractions of the Bazaar, a
lemonade well and fortune tellers
tent, both in good hands, and will have
a children's afternoon Saturday, when
special entertainments for the little
ones will be given.
The supper room, in particular is do
ing a good business. The Red Men
dined there last night, and Haupt
Lodge will do so tonight. Hany other
of the fraternal orders have accepted
invitations to attend during the week.

that on Abercorn is much wider.
In each of the buildings there will
be three sets of apartments, each
complete i'm itself. Each suite will

house will be common, but there will
be a separate hall for each set of
apartments. Entrance from the rear

fort of the prospective tenants would
be taken in the construction of the
buildings, as 1t has been in the draw
ing of the plans.

NINE LONG, WEARY YEARS.
Sam Wilson, Confessed Burglar,
Must Serve in state Pen.

Must Serve in state Pen.
Sam Wilson, very colored and bur-
glar of distinction and repute, an
adept and an old hand at the business
was sentenced by Judge Barrow, in
the Superior Court yesterday, to serve
nine long and weary years, at hart
labor, in the penitentiary of the state.
More than week ago Wilson plead
ed guilty to three indictments charg-
ing him with burglary. The first of
these charged that Wilson had felo-
niously broken and entered the store
of Walter Ashton, and the two others
that he had similarly broken and en-
tered the residences of H. S. Dreese
and A. S. Kohler. All the crimes were
committed within three weeks of each
other, and two of them on succeeding
nights.
Wilson was brought into court on
yesterday and on each charge Judge
Barrow sentenced him to serve three
years, making am aggregate of nine he
will be required to labor for the profit
of the state and his own reformation.
Irie Thomas, suspected of completely
with Wilson in the numerous crimes
that worthy is known to have COM
mitted, was tried for burglary and
found not guilty by the jury. The
specific crime for which Thomas was
tried was the burglary of the store of
George Schroeder, but the jury de-
clined to accept the evidence of A.
Haskell, the principal witness for the
state, and a verdict of acquittal re-
suited.
Despite the general conviction that
Thomas has been connected with the
commission of a number of bur-
glaries there was no specific evidence
to connect him with any other than that
for which he was tried, and upon the
verdict of not guilty being returned he
was given his liberty.
