POLITE CIGAR SMOKERS.
Fumigated a Carriage Several Times,
an Entirely Unnecessary
Proceeding.

Some time ago Bishop Potter camo
to Hartford to address the Working
mems club, under John G~unshanan' =
invitation. The bishop, relates the
Hartford Courant. was TO stay at Bish-
OBJ Brewster's home, and AZ the meet
ing was to be introduced by Judge
Prentice.
Gunshanan took a carriage and rode
out for Judge Prentice, so that they
two might take the two bishops TO thu
meeting. On the way out Gunshanan
lit his inseparable cigar. When be
reached the judges home he threw
his cigar away and opened the hack
doors and let the cold air blow through
a bit before venturing to ask the emf
nent gentlemen to enter such a cloud
of smoke. He was expected. and whcr
the door bell rang Judge Prentice APP
preached. having just risen from the
dinner table. cigar in his mouth. Hand
ing n to Gunshanan he said they
might as well smoke on the way over.
So they did. II
AS they neared the bishops hons
they both decided it would be we'll to
fumieate the carriage and not ask the
two churchmen into such a NICOTINE
atmosphere. When they thought the
carriage was sufficiently purified they
threw their cigars away and went to
the door and were ushered in. Bishop
Brewster had a cigar in his mouth
when they entered. and as Bishop Pot

When | was stationed at Nowshera
news was brought to me one morning
That one of my coolies had been BIT
ten by a snake and was dying, says a
writer in the Madras Times. | hur-
ried to his hut and found the man UNI
conscious and bleeding from his mouth
and nose. A few passes from the head
downward stopped the bleeding. | con
tinued the passes and in ten minutes
ne was able to open his eyes, but up-
able to speak or move his hands or
limbs.
l continued the passes and after the
lapse of another five minutes he was
able to speak feebly and indicate the
seat of pain>. Each pass gradually
worked the position downward and
the mans speech grew stronger by
degrees, and in half an hours time.
from the beginning of the operation
the man was able 20 sit up. Having
worked the poison down below the
knees, / tied a ligature below the
knee and sent hiri to a hospital,
where he eventually recovered. He
was bitten In the right foot. |

carried the experiment out to the end
and have bled him. but not being a
medical man, and as there was a hos
pital only a few miles distant, | had to

FORCED NEGRO TO RESIGN
EXPERIENCE OF coLORED Lad
AT YAZOO, MISS.

Twice Passed Civil Service Examina-
tion and Twice Appointed to Clerk
ed from Holding Either Of Them
Threatened with Lynching Unless He
Resigned-CompIains mt White House
washington, March 3O.-M. J. Horns
by, a young negro, who twice passed a
civil service examination, and twice
has been appointed to clerkships in the
postoffice at Yazoo, Miss, has complain
ed at the White House that he is pre-.
vented from holding his position by
reason Of the brutality Of white citizens
of Yazoo. Hornsby was presented at
the White House by the Rev. S. L.
Corothers, but the president was un-
able to take up the case because prac-
ticaily all that remains of his time be-
fore leaving for his western trip has
been filed with engagements. The case
was stated to Secretary Loeb, however,
and Hornsby was referred to the civil
service commission. " @
According to the negro's story he en-
tered on his duties at the Yazoo post
office, Whereupon certain white patrons
of the office thrashed him several times
when he was caught going to and from
his duties. This mistreatn1ent result
ed in the resignation of Hornsby but
Ile took the examination for the va
eancy that was created by his own
resignation. Others who took the ex-
animation We're two negro men, one ne
gress and two white men. Hornsby
passed the best examination and was
again appointed. While returning from
jackson, Miss, where his bond was
fixed UP, Hornsby noticed a, gathering
of white people near the train after 1T
had entered the Yazoo yards. He left
the train and attempted to escape, but
was oyertaken and was carried off to
an oil mill, where some of the members
.of the mob counselled 1ynching and
others whipping the negro. Hornsby
agreed to write out his resignation and
leave Yazoo, never to return. The res
ignation was sent to Washington, and
Hornsby followed it. He is seeking re
lief, but is not sure of the character of
the relief he wants. He says he is
afraid to return to Yazoo.

TABARD INNS DIFFICULTIES.
10 Issue Bonds to Pay on All outstand-

IL d ISBllE EbUMUS NU pM .REE OWABtsthI@
ing; CIaims.
Philadelphia, March 30.-The board of
directors Of the suspended Tabard Inn
corporations decided to-day to issue
bonds for the purpose of raising the
necessary funds to pay off all outstand-
ing claims. These. bonds, which are
to be offered to stockholders, are to be
secured BY the stock Of some of the
subordinate companies. For what
amount the issue is to be made will not
be made known until a formal state
nent can be prepared. 1t was said
to-day by e. Clinton Rhoades, attor-
#ney for the companies, that the amount
would depend largely upon the way the
shareholders take to the scheme; but
that, at any rate, enough would be is
sued to furnish money to pay the debts
of the Tabard Inn and BookIovers' Ii
braries and the Boollovers' Magazine,
and also furnish working capital for
the three enterprises. s
Mr. Rhodes said that If the plan was
successful it would extricate the COM
panies in the hands of receivers from
their difficulties. The book store, which
failed, is a creditor of the libraries for
books furnished and the magazine is
indebted to the Tabard press for print
ing. That the bond issue will prove
practicable Mr.. Rfloades is assured by
the fact that the directors, the heaviest
stockholders, have substantially prom
ised to see the project to successful
issue.

ter,s Husband.

New York, March aO.The grand jury
In this city late to-day handed down
indictments against ]. Morgan Smith,
Julia Smith, his wife, and Nan Patter-
son, charging them jointly with com
spiracy. The indictments are based up
on a letter alleged to have been written
BY Julia Smith to Caesar Young. iii
which, 1t is alleged, was a threat and
a demand for money for the Patterson
girl.
This action by the grand jury follow
ed a hearing at the criminal courts
building, at which several witnesses
including the widow of Caesar Young
and Mrs. Young's brother-in-law. Will
liam Luce, were examined by Assistant
District Attorney Rand, who conducted
the recent trial Of Nan Patterson,
charged with Caesar Young's murder,
which resulted in a disagreement by
the jury.
The arrest of Smith and his wife at
Cincinnati, ccaroding to the local au-l
thorities, will have an important bear
ing upon the new trial of the Patterson
girf on the charge of murder, set for;
April 10. AT the first trial an attempt
was made to prove that the revolver
with which Young was shot was pl1r-
chased by Smith ana a woman the day
before the tragedy occurred.

Harbin, March S0.-Japanese scouting
parties are very active in endeavoring
to pierce the screen of the Russian van
guard posts and develop the disposition

there was a smart brush where General
Mistchenko is stationed, the Japanese
pressing forward in a determined en-

TRADING STAMP MATTER
BEFORE COMMITTEE
HEARING ON BILLS YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON.

Business Mems Associations of Several
Cities Largely Represented and sup
port Movement Against the Giving
Away OF stamps-George j. Bassett,
of New Haven, and Others Declare
Goods Can be Sold Cheaper If Evil is
Abolished.
Hartford, March 80. - Several bills
aimed at the trading stamp traffic We're
the subjects of hearings before the ju-
dietary committee this afternoon. One
of the proposed measures provides a
penalty for the use of trading stamps,
prohibits the sale or issue of the stamps
and another would put an excise tax
of per cent. ON the receipts of sales
into which trading stamps enter. A bill
introduced by Representative Clark of
Hartford requires that trading stamps
shall be redeemable in cash to the min
imum amount of one cent. ..
The business mems associations of
several cities Of the state were largely
represented. All of them favoring leg
islation against the stamps. Accord
ing to II. ID. Barrows, director of the
New London Business Mems associa-
tion, the Trading Stamps companies

George J. Bassett of the New Haven
Business Mems association A. B.. Ali
brey of the Meriden Business Mems
association and Others urged that mer-
chants should be able to sell goods
more cheaply if the, use Of trading
stamps were abolished as they dec1ar-
ed that the consumer was ultimately
forced to pay for the stamps.
a. III. Abbey of New Britain, Charles
i. House of Manchester, B. e. Peck of
Bristol, and w. v. Norris Of Williman-
tic all favored the bill Of Representa-
tive Clark. Senator Clark of Winsted
and Representative GrisWold of Gull
ford argued strongly against the use
of stamps. Judge II. =. Bowers of
Manchester, who appeared in behalf Of
the State Business Mems association of
fered a substitute for Representative
Clark's bill. The substitute provides
that the bill shall not apply to tickets,
coupons or other devices placed in
packages of goods sold or manufacture
ed by merchant and to be redeemed
by him. =
r. J. Lebouf, a representative of a
trading stamp company, was the enly
one to appear in favor Of the trading
stamps He based his argument partly
on the fact that his company ought
not to be excluded from business in
the state for the reason that 1t was
large purchaser of supplies in this state
and therefore had certain standing.
He also submitted d large number of
decisions in favor Of trading stamps in
courts in other states.
