 Before Judge Afford, in the Inferior Criminal Court this afternoon, John Ellis was given a preliminary hearing for the murder of Frank Joulian last night week, at the latter's home, on the Bay Shell Road. J. H. Webb ap- peared for the State and McAlpine and Robinson for the defense. A large number of witnesses had been sum noned, all of whom were present In court.
 The evidence introduced by the state was of a very strong nature, the prln- cipal witnesses being Robert Moore and two females, Dell Howard ana Ear Roselle. These testified that two shots were fired and each said they saw Ellls fire the second shot. Only two bullets struck the man, but six holes were found in his person, one bullet, the physicians declared, making four per forations, having gone through the arm and the body.
 There was a sharp tilt between So- licitor Webb and the attorneys TOT the defense on the question Of witness Moore testifying, the defense insisting that the court instruct Moore that ne was not compelled to make any state ment which would incriminate himself Solicitor Webb consented to the charge, but insisted that the court ln- struct witness as to perjury. Moore consented to testify.

 Uniontown, Pa, April IT, 1905. My Dear Col. Mosby:
 found your letter of the 9th instant and The Richmond Times-Dispatch If the 2nd on my table, after a short ab- sence I called this morning on Edi- tor Sturgis of The Uniontown News Standard, with your letter and the Richmond paper. I found his worship somewhat rufied because you had not addressed your letter to him. He thought you should have written di- rectly to him and his dignity seemed wounded I gave him some more CT less whimsical reasons for your line of action, and finally molified him, so that he is going to publish; but think he meant to take a fall out of you for your lack of due respect to his Inighti- ness, by loudly complaining that your letter is too long-that 1t would oc- cupy too much of his valuable space to print it all, but said he would print the important parts of 1t. Now this will answer, as I intend carefully preserv- ing the paper you sent me, for exhibi- tion and future publication in full if necessary. I will send you some cop les of The News Standard when Sur gis publishes the letter and should be glad if you would, if possible, send me a few more Times Dispatches for pos sible future contingencies. Your let ter is admirable, it is calm. dignif1ed and convincing. I should like 10 see anybody assal 1t. Hoping you are well and wishing you well, am,

MAXINE ELuOrps SOCIAL TRlUMPHs
(Everybody's Magazine.)

Maxine Elliott occupies unique posi-
ton on the stage. A New England wo-
man by birth, she lived many years in
California. She adopted the stage after
an unfortunate marriage, and her beau
ty and charm swiftly won leading
place for her. She was in T. d. Fraw-
ley's Company Il have had occasion be-
fore to say what an excellent company
it was) when N. C. Goodwin made her
his leading lady and afterwards his
wife. Two years sago she became an
individual star, and she has probably
made more money in the last two sea-
sons than any other player in the coun-
try. Mr.. Fitch received something like
one hundred thousand dollars in royalties
from "Her Own Way" In England
Maxine Elliott has q social position that
no other actress has gained, and there
are stories-which are believed implicit
ly by people who should know-that one
of the greatest men in England, a no
bleman who has won the highest politi-
cal honors, would make her his wife if
she were free. Should this come about,
Maxine Elliott would make match to
dwarf that in her present play.

PICTURE POs1ALs PROHIBITED.

Picture postals have come into such
general use that in some countries the
law has been invoked to determine
which of the many illustrations shall be
debarred from passage through the
mails. Since the recent riots in Russia
all postals bearing a portrait of Tolstoy
are confscated and destroyed as being
incendiary, and pictures Of the japanese
war or any illustrations having bear
ing thereupon are barred. In Turkey 1t
is unlawful to post card bearing the
name of Allah Mahomet the picture OF
Mohammedan woman, while in Saxony
the transmission through the post OF
Princess Louise has been stopped since
that member of the royal family began
the series of incidents which have made
her the talk of the world.
The king of Portugal prohibits the
mailing of cards which carricature his
corpulence and in France an effort is be-
ing made to prevent the posting OF
cards which exceed all bounds of, good
taste. The picture of the late Queen
Draga is not'permitted to. be mailed or
sold in Bulgaria, and several. other royal
tragedies carry with them postal pro-
hibitions.
