10 New Office Of Assistant Attor-

Graceful Acknowledgement Of Couriesies Re.
ceived From Southern Woman.

IL VIII be remembered that during the
recent session of the Legislature, at a
meeting of the Governor and Council.
held. Feb. 8, 1905, vote of thanks of
tnat body was extended to Miss Lenora
c. Hubbard of Anderson. South Caro-
Ina. lin grateful and appreciative rec
oshltion or her noble and patriotic SER
vice TO the people OF this State, in car
ryihg for and honoring the graves of
certain soldiers, formerly citizens Of
Maine, who died in defence of the
Union"
Inc action was consequent upon the
report of the standing committee on
military affairs, to which was referred
certain correspondence relating to the
care of burial places of Maine soldiers
ia Anderson, S. c., which was that the
examination of the evidence at hand
disclosed the fact that at Anderson the
graves of certain Union soldiers, some
OF whom were from Maine had, until
recent action by the federal authorities
through 1nadvertence or mistake been
completely overlooked and neglected
SO that they might have suffered OBJ
liberation but for the generous and pat
riotic action of Southern woman,
Miss Hubbard, president of the Ander-
son Memorial Association.
The committee found that Miss Huh
bard had, at her own expense, and ac-
tuated only by motives of Christianity
and broad minded patriotism, for
many years kept the mounds of these
graves in a respectable condition. so
that they might be identified by their
friends and on each succeeding Memo
rial day. personally decorated them
with American flags.
The report of the committee and the
accompanying resolution, properly
signed, was forwarded to Miss Hub
bard. and the following letter of ac-
acknowledgement, written by her, was
read at the special meeting of the Cow
crnOr and Council, Friday afternoon,
by Councillor Clarke:
Anderson, S. c., May 30, 1905
My Dear Mr.. Clarke:
Your letter of April q has just
reached me, and I reply at once. The
resolution of thanks from your State
reached me in due time, and I at once
acknowledge the receipt, directing to
Augusta, Me. 1t seems my letter must
have failed to reach its destination.
appreciate most highly the gracious ac-
ton Of your people, and hope you will
express to the committee my thanks.
| missed that row of graves. this Me-
mortal day, but am glad to know that
they are permanently cared for else
where. We are again one people, with
one flag, and sincerely hope this great
country of ours may never again be ar
rayed in opposing sections. Again
thanking you and your State, am,
Your Southern friend.

 After, I think, two seasons of belle ship, Miss Hargous married Duncan El- liott, gallant young fellow of the sol- dierly type, who has been forgetting in the Philippines the sorrows that broke LID his married life. Mrs. Elliott seemed to have a fondness for soldiers, for two years ago she was seen to be not indif- ferent to the attentions of Capt Wood- bury Kane. Capt Kane is one of, the lights of New York and Newport so- ciety, a dashing rider. a member of hunt clubs in plenty and of the Aiken colony. He was one of Roosevelt's rough riders during the brief Spanish war. and has since been trying to kill time in the ap- proved manner of young men of no pro- fession, ample means and vigorous physique.
 Was there ever a regiment that has furnished so many true and interesting stories of the news as those same rough riders? Poor Hamilton Fish's sad death fin the ranks. the New York policemen who followed in war the fortunes of their former commissioner. the wed- dings. the romances. the offices that for mer members have been called upon to fill.
 The latest American girl to be be- trothed to a scion of British aristocracy is Miss Amy Phipps. of the former Pitts burg family. The man who is reported to have won her heart is Hon. Frederick Guest. younger son of Baron Wimborne. wealthy, and one of the handsomest men in London. The Phippses are now New Workers.

own statements to the tax commission srs It's properties are worth S32, ,OOO, 900. It has assumed bonds of more than $100, ,000. 900 (some of which are no doubt held as assets by.insurance companies) and has issued stock to the tune of ESQ., Z 000,000, which sells at. more than $20O in the market, and is worth therefore $160,000, 900. Altogether, $26O, 100000 and over worth of securities piled bot tom side up on top of a $32, ,OO0, ,OOO basis! That looks as if the franchises on which the monopoly is operating were worth in the market $22S, S,O0O.O00; and the amaz- ing thing is that the company doesn't even securely own them all. Some have expired, some were voided by consolida- tion, but the company has until now had no difficulty in holding them by the favor of local politicians. A year ago bill cunningly contrived to secure the validation of all gas franchises by a subterfuge was passed by the legis- lature and signed by Mayor Mcclellan, before whom all city bills must come for approval. Gov. Odell vetoed the bill, after the gas men had supposed that everything was safe. That year. old issue is the chief issue in the com ing municipal campaign this fall. And the Uncle John Morgan interests, which seek investigation of life insur- ance, make fun of investigation of gas because, while Gov Odell shines in the gas controversy, his friend Harri- man is shadowed by the insurance dis closures
 There is politics in the investigation, of course; big politics looking to the next mayor of the city, the next gov ernor of the state, the next president of the country. But that doesn't de- tract from it's value. There was poli- tics in the Lexow inquiry Il years ago, that uncovered the rottenness of the Van Wyck police administration. But the city profited; things have never since been quite so bad.

attributed to the financial backing of the Rockefeller interests and who has now become great magnate on his own ac- count; and Jacob Schiff, who as the senior partner of Kuhn. Loeb & Co.,, needs no backing, and who has succeed ed J. P. Morgan as the leading bond ''underwriter" of the country.
 MT. Morgan's bank is the rival of the Standard Oil bank. MT. Morgan's bond business feels hurt in it's tenderest feel ings by MT. Schiff's success. MT. Mor- gan's newspapers are remorselessly at tacking both Hartman and Schiff. It must be said that the former, as a rail- road president not uninterested in poli- tics, is vulnerable. But until the pres ent year no great financier in the coun- try had gone more free of criticism than MT. Schiff. And what commanding i'm portance such a position as his has in the wide world. not to say New York! The recent flotation of Japanese bonds in New York caused public interest as an evidence of Japan's financial credit. How many people thought of the fact that this sale of $75, 5,OOOOQo of securities was the largest single offering of foreign bonds of any sort ever made in this country in the history of American finance? In 1901 such an event would have been hailed as proof of New York's coming ascendency in the finance of the world.
 Technically, both Hartman and Schiff, as we'll as most of the other Equitable directors, are convicted of selling to the society bonds of companies in which they are interested. But it would be mighty hard thing in these days for board of directors to be chosen sufficiently strong in finance to attract business and secure confidence, and then to dodge their interests in trust companies and railways in making de- posits and investments. Unc' John Morgan, at any rate, needn't put on his virtuous airs. Nothing more cool was ever done in the investments of the Equitable than his partner Perkins act Ing as seller and purchaser at the same time of bonds of the Ship Trust to the New York Life.

 HAVANA, April 16.-One of the re suits of the seizure by six Nationalist congressman of papers in the case of alleged improper acts by Nationalist councilmen and officials of the city of Havana was duel with swords here between Congressnlen Carlos Mendieta and 5Armando Andre. government employee, who had written letter to newspaper strongly condemnatory of Mendieta and the other congressman concerned in the seizure Of the papers.
 Mendieta inflicted a trifing wound on his opponents arm, and the honor of both the duelists was thereupon con- sidered to have been satisfied.

He says that New York men tote too many guns, and in quite ridiculous fashion, so that If one of them really wanted his revolver in hurry he'd have to tear the lining of his hip pocket out to get it. He says the po- lice of the city are ill-managed; and that any man can see. He scolds the newspapers for "faking;;" and some of them are certainly guilty. He de- nounces the foolish New York habit of hurrying to catch street cars and then loitering five minutes at the Flatiron building to see ladies weather the east, erly gales that blow about it.

 balls. his dinner to Ambassador Cam bon, have been fully discussed.
 But if every charge of the misuse of the company's funds that is made against him were admitted, the total in amount would be trifiing in comparison with such gigantic scandals as the float ing of the Equitable Trust company with the deposits of the Equitable. As- surance society as its chief asset in a business way, and with Equitable di- rectors as its president and trustees. The presence in the directorate of J. J. McCook and the Alexanders, one of whom was so badly mixed up in the shipbuilding trust scandal, is a dis Quieting fact.
 The controversy mas knocked the life insurance business dead for the time be- ing. Agents are writing no new busi- ness; policy holders who pay in their money do so reluctantly and with com- piainings. This the case with all the ''big three" companies. and with many of the little ones besides. Yet the pol icies were never safer. If anything. they are too safe. Tn order to have vaster sums to lend and, it is claimed. to get their percentages of 'rake-off" upon, the directors have retained larger sur pluses than they need to. Except for a reasonable reserve for emergencies this surplus belongs to the policyholders. Smaller sums have been paid to death benefit heirs and to endowment policy holders than they were statisticalIy en- titled to.

Musleal Motor,.

An American Is said to have invent
ed a musical instrument, which, II 1t
ever became popular, would revolu-
than machine which combines the
Qualities Of the organ and of the Eo-
liam harp. and 1t is made in two sizes;
one small, to be fitted to the frame of
bicycle; and the other larger, to be
attached in front of motor-car. The
inventor claims that the wind blow
ing through the instrument will pro.
duce such concord of sweet sounds
that neither the cyclist nor the mo-
torist will ever be wearied on a jour
ney, but will ride and drive In ecstacy,
entranced with their own music.
Moreover, the complaints which have
hitherto been made of the harsh jim
gle of the bicycle bell, and of the
raucous below Of the motors horn, will
no longer have any justification. The
cycle and the motor will be announced
by fairylike melodies, which will
soothe the pedestrian, and almost re-
concile hi INTO being run over. The
idea is ingenious, but we doubt
whether 1t will ever become popular
in this country. The weight of such

able, and its chief drawback is that
the music is not under the control of
the rider and driver. A gramophone

JAMES G. BLAINE.

JAMES G. blaine. The first question
to be determined in the measures of
the reconstruction was that of the
basis>of representation upon which the
States who had Joined the Confeder-
acy should be readmitted to the Union.
Thaddeus Stevens had proposed that
representation should be apportioned
according to the number of legal vot-
ers. James G. Blaine, who had al
ready been noted for his fairness In
seeing both sides of the Southern ques-
ton. strenuously objected to this prop
osition and urged that population, In
stead Of voters, should determine the
apportionment. So insistent was he
upon his plan that, although Stevens
was really the leader of the House,
Blaine succeeded in securing the adop-
tton of his plan, embodied in the four
teenth amendment.
Again, in 1867, when Stevens report
ed the reconstruction bill that divided
the Southern States into five military
districts and that practically estab-
lished military government In them,
Blaine opposed the measure, declaring
that he was unwilling to support a
measure that would place the South
under military government, il 1t did
not at the same time prescribe the
conditions under which the people of
these States might, by their own ac-
ton. re-establish civil government.
Time has shown the wisdom of the
course Of Blaine rs right showed the
Justice of 1t at the time that he pro-
posed 1t to Congress.
