BRET HARTE IN ENGLAND.
Dull in General Society, but an In
comparable Companion in Private.

Dull in General Society, but an In
comparable Companion in Private.
Col. Collins in the London Telegraph.
1 first met Bret Harte at an evening
party some twenty years ago. Our
| hostess, of the Mrs. Leo Hunter type,
"paraded" him, and he did not attempt
to conceal his boredom. He seemed in
terested, however, when l told him
had read and reread his stories to the
soldiers under my command in Ceylon.
They were never tired of THE Luck
of Roaring Camp" and How Santa
Claus Came to Sandy Bar" The path
os of the last named, 1 remember. need
ed strong effort and restraint on my
part in relation. Our friendship soon
became a close one. We met con-
stantly, and 1 much valued his afrec-
tionate and true regard. In general
society Bret Harte was reticent, but in
small and intimate circle his CONVEX
sa ton was as brilliant and humorous
as his diction was forcible and appro-
pirate. 1 call to mind an evening at
THE Rag" when he dined with me,
together with John Hare and Arthur
Riggs. We sat spellbound till after l
o'clock The old Californian days were
his theme.
One striking episode he related most
dramatically. A woman was to be
lynched she had committed two das-
tardly murders, and had estranged all
sympathy. As the rope was being adj
justed She lifted her hair, and an I'M
loosened tress fell down her back. 1t
was the touch of nature, and her
rough eXecutioners melted. They
slashed with their whips the horse to
which she was bound, and it galloped
away with her. He also mucn enjoy
ed dining quietly with me at Brooks
renewing Georgian days and nights
as he would say. The old-world en-
vironment of the place much delighted
him. We often visited theaters togeth-
err. Bret was an acute and humorous
critic. One November evening we went
to see "Trilby." Say, Arthur, are we
not anticipating the pantomine?" The
last time we met a few months ago, I
dined with him at the Thames Yacht
Club, in Albemarle street. My poor old
friend was sadly aged and broken, but
genial and kind as ever. We sat an
hour at music hall, and he wrote after
to thank me for having forced him
out" He was one of the guests that
were kindly wont in former years to
dine with me on my birthday. Alas,

TO LOVE HER is FATAL.
Peculiar Chain of Events in Her
Tragic Life.

From the North American.
Indianapolis, Ind, May 25.-Mrs.
Harold Frank Underwood is on her
way to Europe
There is little suggestion, If any, in
this bare announcement of the con-
templated European trip of Mrs. In
derwood to arouse the interest of 9TH
ers than her friends. But. taken in
connection with the facts in the
strange and inexplicable mystery sur
rounding Mrs. Underwood, another
story appears that not only interests
those who know her, but arouses the
curiosity of all who have heard the
gossip recently associating itself with
her name.
Mrs. Underwood is a bride Of only
little over three months. She is one
of the most beautiful young women
OF Indianapolis She is the daughter
of prominent and well-known fam

have resided for half "A century.

THE SCARCITY OF CORKs.
How 1t Has Developed Several Queer
Industries.
From the New York Post.

From the New York Post.
The fact that the worlds supply of
cork is much less than the demand
has been working a peaceful revolu-
ton in many trades. The increase in
the price has rendered it necessary
to devise other kinds of shoppers. This
has given employment to a perfect
army of inventors, many of whom
have reaped neat little fortunes from
ingenious contrivances. Thus far, how
ever, all the inventions have not been
able to restore the former balance.
and prices keep up in an alarming
manner. AS a consequence there has
been developed trade in secondhand
corks, and under this have come into
being queer little industries such as
gathering corks, cleaning corkS, and
revamping corks.
In the big hotels, restaurants, and
saloons the cork perquisite is now a
moderately valuable privilege. They
are no longer cast contemptuously by,
but are thrown into a box or cask,
where they accumulate until the cork
picker arrives, who pays round sum
in cash for all offered to him. The
average waiter and bartender now en-
ploys cork-screws (which infiict mini
mum damage upon the cork, and in
many places where a number of bot
ties are opened in the course of the
day a steel cork etractor is used,
which will pull out a cork from the
interior of a bottle into which it has
been carelessly forced
The peddler who buys them sells
them to the secondhand man, who as
sorts them into various classes. Many
large corks can be recut with consid-
cradle profit Others which have been
injured can be cut so as to discard the
injured portions and utilize that which
is sound Corks. which have been dis
colored by grease can be cleaned by
benzine, ammonia water or lime and
water. Those which have been discol-
ored or favored by medicine can be
rendered disable by long continued boil
ing with a small amount of chloride
of lime, and subsequent drying in a
kiln or oven. The finest quality con-
sists of champagne corks. These al
ways command good price. 1t is pos
sible to reuse them, and this is said
to be done by many manufacturers
both at home and abroad. Others can
be recut so as to oblterate the maker s
or bottler's name, which is usually
branded upon the side or lower surface.
A secondhand cork when parafhnated,
can be used for bottles containing oils,
powders and aqueous solution. They
are popular at present on account of
the ease with which they can be taken
out and put back.

WHAT CAPT. willis SAYS.

Capt. Willis is a prominent cigar
dealer in Atlanta. His statement is
that every spring he was annoyed by
fostering and troublesome sores on his
hands. He applied local applications,
all of which benefited him, but they
were not permanent. Said he: after
using everything 1 could think of I
began to take Graybeard. Less than
two bottle stopped the sores and gave
me just splendid health. 1t is the
greatest medicine 1 ever saw
In spring bad blood manifests itself
in skin eruptions in itch sores, in
rheumatism, and general breaking
down.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and even
dyspepsia all come from it.
Graybeard is a superb remedy for
these ailments, and now is the time to
take 1t to stop them.
1t is worth $1.00 a bottle at drug
stores; 6 bottles $500.

WHAT Mr.. MARTIN SAYS.

Mr.. W. c. Martin of Lenox, Lowndes
county, who went from near Valdosta,
was for years and years afflicted with
both rheumatism and eczema. He could
not afford to lose time, and in his ca
gerness to get rid of these ailments
took almost everything which is sold
over the counter of drug stores. A
great many of the preparations bene-
flied him some, but the ailments always
returned. In spring and summer these
ailments were worse. Finally he got
hold of Graybeard and it cured him.
He was so delighted with the medicine
that he told his friends far and near of
it and said: Il would not take $500
for the benefit derived from a few bot
ties of Graybeard. l was afflicted with
rheumatism and had a touch of ecze-
ma, and was broken down generally,
and GRAVEYARD restored me to health"

A few months ago Mr.. o. A. Cliett
of Powersville, one of the most extern
sive fruit growers in Georgia, said.
"More than six years ago l suffered
terribly of dyspepsia. I could not find
anything to relieve me for any length
of time. 1 was restless. nervous, could
not sleep, all l ate disagreed with me-
In warm weather this ailrnent was a
greater source of annoyance. 1 cured
the dyspepsia by taking Graybeard At
the time 1 gave a testimonial to that
effect. Now. six years later, 1 want
to renew that testimonial and add that
have not passed a sick day from this
cause since. 1 have not been compelled
to take any more medicine for dyspep-
STA, because have not been troubled
with it since. 1 am in better health,
and feel better every way, and l want
to say that 1 attribute it all to Gray

are not truthful, trustworthy, honest.

ceremonies without that Spirit are but
empty forms, They are but meaning
less limitations, without real value to
the soul.

THE LECTURES ON FAITH

The Inquiry is frequently made and
one has just been received, as to who
delivered the lectures on Faith, and at
what time were they dellyered? The
question Is In reference to the lectures
which are published in the first part Of
the Book of Doctrine and Covenants,
and II Is there stated that they were
originally delivered before class Of
the Elders in Kirkland, ohio. Those
excellent addresses, which have fur
nished information and argument for
many of the Elders Of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, were
delivered by Sidney Rlgdon, but they
We're subsequently examined and pre-
pared for publication In the Doctrine
and Covenants by the Prophet Joseph
Smith, as appears from the following
extract from his history:
During the month of January 1885
Joseph was engaged In the school OF the
Elders and preparing lectures on the
ology for the Book OF Doctrine and
Covenants. During the winter the
school, which was held In the lower
story OF the printing Office building,
4, was well attended, and with the lee
lures oil theology. which were regular
~ delivered. absorbed for the time be-
ing everything else of a temporal ma
ture The classes being mostly Ell
ders gave the most studlous attention
to the all-important object Of qualify
ttafr ID
Christ to be ready to do His Will In
carrying glad tidlngs 10 all that would
open their eyes, ears and hearts. -
Historical Record, Oh. s.
From this II appears that the Lee
lures on Faith were delivered during
the winter OF 1894, that is, during the
closing months OF that year They were
placed In the Doctrine and Covenants
and with the revelations and command
iuents In that book were accepted. the
whole volume being received as a law
end rule Of faith and practice to the
Church, at general assembly, held In
Kirkland, Aug, lIth, 1885,
II should be observed that these leo
. lures are not designated as revelations.
A course of instruction was given to
classes OF the Elders by several lead
Ing Church officers, and 10 that course
these theological discourses Were de-
llvered, and were subsequently accept
