A tablet in memory of Sir William
Johnson has been placed on Johnson
Hall, Johnstown, by the Colonial DANES
of the State OF New York. The mansion
was erected by Sir William $50 years
ago, and there he entertained lavishiy

The Washington times., 1902-10-27

1t must thoroughly be understood
that these expulsions are not on the
authority of any judicial or even magis-
terial decree. II is purely admins
trative affair, pertaining to the de-
partment of the interior and to the
bureau OF oolice.
Several cases recur to my mind of
arbitrary expulsion of this kind. At
the time when, through General Bou-
LANCER. the enactment of decree was
secured exiling from France the late
Duke of Aumale, the venerable Eng
lish clergyman who for more than
twenty years had been acting as rector
of the little English church at Chan
tilly, and looking after the spiritual
welfare of the large colony of English
trainers, jockeys and stable folk of
one kind and another who make their,
homes there, allowed at one of the
parish meetings a vote to be passed
expressing sorrow at the departure
from Chantilly of the old duke. The
duke was the owner of the palace of
Chantilly. which he subsequently be-
queathed to the nation, and the princi-
pal benefactor of the little English
colony of stable employees. as we'll as
the most generous subscriber to all
their charities. having in, fact built
the English church for their use.

COURTS AND CAPITALS
OF THE OLD WORLD.

President Roosevelt's energetic ac-
ton through Ambassador Porter at
Paris in connection with the orders
given by the French police to certain
Americans to leave France at once. as
Objectionable foreigners" will prob
ably lead to radical transformation
by the French government of the pecu-
liar methods which for more than fifty
years have been practiced with re-
gard to the expulsion from French ter
rftory of foreign visitors and residents.
AS the matter stands now any foreigner
may be expelled from France without
opportunity of obtaining redress on
the mere order of subordinate officials
of the department of the interior, who,
while as general rule they do this
in cases where such action is deserved,
also very often adopt these arbitrary
methods merely for the sake of oblig-
ing politician, or some foreign diplo-
mat. the latter usually acknowledging
the service thus rendered by obtaining
a decoration for the official in question.
The Washington times., 1902-10-27

There was nothing political in this
vote of sympathy passed by the members
of the church in question. 1t merely ex-
pressed sorrow at the dukes departure
and the hope that he might soon be able
to return, without a wcrd of reference
to the government. Yet for having al
lowed this vote to be passed the English
clergyman, who for a quarter of a CEN
tury had made his home at Chantlly.
was expelled from French territory
within twenty-four hours, being con-
Quoted to Calais by couple of members
of the French police. and placed on a
boat leaving for Dover.
The English embassy was unable to
obtain any kind of redress, or repeal OF
the order, and as Boulanger at the time
was anxious at all costs to provoke
war with England, and the latter did
not see her way to satisfy his selfish
personal projects in connection with the
the British government abstain
ed from taking up the affair with the
same degree of energy that Ambassador
Porter is now displaying with regard TO
Robert L. Rose and his American fellow
whose departure has been or
dered by the French department of the
interior.
The Washington times., 1902-10-27

Another instance that occurs to me
is that of the alleged daughter of Omar
Pasha the famous Turkish general of
Crimean war fame. She was for time
the fair friend and Egeria of one of the
principal deputies of the metropolis in
the lower house of representatives at
Paris-M vergoin by name. The lady's
temper being somewhat violent. NJ. Yer
goin at length decided to terminate a
friendship, the nature of which could
hardly be termed platonic. Accordingly.
he invoked the services of & friend at
the department of the interior, and with
in twenty-four hours. the woman, who
bore the name of Mile. de Sombreuil,
was seized by police officers at her resi-
dence, and without being given even
time to pack UP her belongings, was con
veyed. not without struggles, cries and
protests. to Marseilles, where she was
put on board a ship leaving for Naples.
There is an amusing little epilogue TO
this story. About four weeks later
Deputy Vergoin was in the act of max
ing a most important speech in the
chamber of deputies. which was being
listened to with rapt attention by the
house, when suddenly a mocking femi-
nine laugh was heard to proceed from
one of the galleries. and voice ex-
claimed:
What funny face that ugly little
man has
On looking up. people saw a very pret-
ty woman with fair hair, in whom NJ |
Vergoin recognized Mile, de Sombreuil, |
who. unbeknOwn to the police. had re-
entered France via Switzerland and the |
81. Gotthard. and returned to Paris. A
shout of laughter rent the air, which
was still further increased on beholdng
he disconnected face OF the orator.
whose eloquence was thus cut short.

he gallery, and that same evening she

MJLLERVILLE,

May IS, 1901 reckon it will
be proper to say we have had a
general soaking rain and every
thing in the line of vegetation is
making vigorous growth.
Wheat generally too thin; oats
looking rather sickly, owing to
want of moisture and warmer
weather while in the terminating
state; corn coming up aud look
ing we'll.
Apple, plum and pear shapes
abundant. No peaches in these
parts.
Most of corn planted, except
land along streams that is liable
to overflow, which is always held
back until most of the spring rains
are over.
General health is good.
The tragic death of Mr. George
W. Snlder was quite a shock to
our community, not because OF the
tragedy alone but because we lose
one Of our most useful and valued
citizens.
Two weddings in our neie ehbor-
hood the past few days. On the
first inst, at the residence of the
brides parents near Kurreville,
by J. c. Smith, Esq, Mr.. F.. M.
Simmons Of Drum to Miss Caro-
line, youngest daughter of Mr..
and Mrs Marion Fulbright. On
Sunday, the 9th. at the residence
of L, M. Baker near Millerville.
and by the same, Mr.. Joseph S.
Baker of Ponrose, Cal, to Miss
Martha A. Brown. The BRIDE
groom is nephew of our f NJ.
Baker and son Of JEFF Baker, who
was well known to our older citi-
zens back in tho CO.'S and early
70's, when he moved west and
finally located in southern Cali
fornia, where the son owns home
and will go with his young bride
in a few days. Miss Brown was
an orphaned daughter of the late
Joseph Brown of near Critesville,
and was raised from childhood by
Mr.. and Mrs, F.. Nj. Baker and
grew to be an amiable, industri.
GUS and handsome young lady.
She will certainly brighten the
home where she prcsides as mis-
tress. So mote it be.

ALL trists, able lawyers and
honest politicians say That Cape
Girardeau township had no con-
tested delegation nothing that
resembled a contested delegation.
The meeting was held on April
26. the day set by the county
central committee, and the fight
was made in the primaries, but
the old fellows won the victory.
and the other side acknowledged
their, defeat, shook hands, ratified
the delegates selected and all
went home in q good humor In
the face OF oil this these same
minority people met the following
Tuesday, selected a new set of
delegates. and these latter dele
gates were the ones seated in the
nominating convention. What is
the use of a call by the county
central committee? Three mem. e.
bers of the Cape township com
mittee certified to the election of
the delegates on April 90, and
two members certified to those
elected on April 20, Another
