CARUSO SINGS So
HE GETS OVATION
Applause However Not Un-
mixed With Kisses
MONKEY HOUSE WOMAN
She Uses Strong Language About the
Tenor and Says Her Husband,
Baseball Player, Wanted
to Punch Him.

New York, November 2S.--Enrico Caruso
was given cordial reception when he
appeared few moments after the cur
tain went up on ia Boheme'' at the
Metropolitan opera house tonight.
The only suggestion of disappointment
was wild kissing from different parts
of the house. After a few seconds this
was hushed. The applause which lasted
several minutes, was strongest in the bal
comics and galleries, where many Italians
and Frenchmen were seated
After his first solo Caruso was given an
ovation and bowed his appreciation. The
house was comfortably nlled but not
crowded and seats in the balconies were
still to be had at s:45 o'clock.
Police guarded all the exits and were
in evidence throughout the house and
in the wings on the stage.

the woods?"
ut looked kind of new; better than
now"
when did you last have the racquet
out of the case before you put it there
by the road, Chester?"
Before left Cortland"
This line of testimony was to refute
that given for the people to show that
Gillette struck Mrs. Brown crushing
blow with the racquet and then threw
her body into the water. Gillette says
Miss Brown talked about going to the
north woods while they were in Utica.
1t was with her suggestion that they did
go, he said.
He admitted that he met Miss Patrick
and Miss Westcott of Cortland, while
on the train with Grace Brown between
Deruyter and Canastota, on their way
to the Adirondacks He and Miss Brown
planned to go to Fourth lake, but she
desired that they change and go to Tup-
per lake, which was done.
Gillette swore that it was on Grace
Browns suggestion that they left Upper
lake and that she knew of friend who
had been at Big Moose and liked it, she
wanted to go there.
That's why we got off the train" he
said.
DID you love her.?
Eyes, sir. 1 loved her on Big Moose
lake on July IL as well as l ever did. On
July d. when l was at dinner with Miss
Benedict, I did not know that she was
at home begging me to come"
These answers were given to repeated
questions by Mr.. Ward. The district at
torney asked Gillette If he had had i'm
proper relations with Grace Brown when
the letters were written in October.
Eyes, at her sisters, replied the wit
ness
did she protest?'
Yes, several times"
Following a brief recess District At
torney Ward resumed his cross-examina-
ton of Gillette. Letters from Grace
Brown to Gillette were identified by him.
These had previously been read i'm court
and were a pathetic feature of the trial

hibits here?"

Town Is Wiped From Map.

Jackson, Miss, November 2S.-(Special. J.
So far as the state of Mississippi is
concerned there is no longer any such
place as Williamsburg depot on the map,
the governor having issued a proclama-
ton, changing the name of the place
to Collins. Hereafter Collins, which is on
the line of the Gulf and Ship Island rail-
road, and one of the liveliest towns in
the stateSwill be the county site of Cow
ington. Old Williamsburg, the capital Of
Covington for 10, these many years, will
now pass out of existence. 1t has been
dead, to all intents and purposes, for
the past several years, or ever since
the railroad was built, and yet the courts
of the county are still held there.

Mrs. "Graham" Found.

New York, November 2S.--The Evening
World says today that the woman who
gave her name as Hannah Graham and
failed to appear in the police court TO
prosecute the charge which she made
against Caruso, the Italian tenor, has
been found. She is Mrs Stanhope. the
wife of Adam Stanhope, a baseball
player.
1t quotes Mrs. Stanhope as saying there
fered by Caruso was an intentional one.
She said she did not know at that time
that the man was Caruso. She did not
desire to make any complaint against the
man, but finally did so because Police
man Cain said that the man had insulted
other women there that day and he
wanted to lock him up
Mrs. Stanhope denied ever having seen
Cain before the time he asked her TO
make the complaint against the singer.
Finally after repeated requests to do
so, she consented to accompany the off,
Ger and the prisoner to the police sta
ton. When she reached there a man
who was pointed out to her as Police
Captain Stephenson, told her, she de-
clared that she need not give her real
name.
"I guess we have this man dead to
rights" she quoted the captain as hav-
Ing said to her, land you need not come
to court"
When asked why she did not write a
letter to Magistrate Baker during the
police court hearing, Mrs. Stannope re-
piled:

Mr. Ward read a passage from letter
TO Gillette in which Grace Brown said:
'Maybe I'll never go home again until
| am sent home dead You know, dear,
you promised me-
"Did you promise to kill herr"
mo"
Did you ever say you woulu send her
home dead?"

did you ever ask her what she meant
by writing such letter.

what did she mean?"
II don't know"
At this point the court took an ad-
journment until $3.50 Friday.

Husband Is Furious.

81 was afraid. After I told my husband
he acted like mad man. He wanted
to go to the Hotel Savoy and punch the
tenor. Gus Mehan. his friend. had hard
time holding him in check, but both Mr..
and Mrs Mehan finally persuaded him
to let the court punish Caruso.''
Mrs. Stanhope said she went to the
Central Park ZOO with the little son OF
Leonard Bronner. She had been en-
ployed as a governess in Mr.. Bronners
home before her marriage.

Paris, Aug. 11-William J. Bryan,
accompanied by his wife and daughter,
Colonel Wetmore and Mr. and Mrs.
Dunlap, arrived here today for a four
days visit A number of friends gath
cred at the railroad station and gave
the party a cordial greeting. On reach

stack of n all, Including many invita-
tions TO dinners and sight seeing excur-
sions The party lunched at the Hotel
Ritz as the guests of Ex-Governor Dav-
id r. Francis of St. Louis
Mr. Bryan did not wish to talk about
his candidacy for the presidency of the
United States, saying this had already
been lengthily discussed and that he
had nothing to add to his previous
statements. He was much interested
in the social problems of France and
the recent enactment of the workmen's
pension law and the enforced weekly
day Of rest.

SELL THE GOVERNORS MANSION
Advertised Because Some One Failed
to Pay Sewer Tax.

Through an oversight of the state
officials, the officials of Shawnee coun-
ty have placed the governors man
sion on the list of property to be sold
for delinquent taxes. The amount of
tax claimed is only s16s.98. which is
the special assessment levied on the
property for the construction of a
sewer
Notice that the governors mansion
was about to be sold for taxes was sent
to Secretary of State Burrow by Coun-
" Clerk Snattinger, and Secretary
Burrow notified Governor Hoch.
After the consultation between the
governor and the secretary of state,
the latter called on the county clerk
and asked how much time the state
would have to pay the debt. The
county clerk said that the debt must be
paid before September 21. or the prop
erty would be sold a public auction.
The original tax was about $3.50. and
the cost of serving notices on the state
and advertising the property for sale
has added 1898 to the bill
There Is a question now in the minds
of the state officers in regard to who
shall pay the bill. The governor is of
the opinion that the bill should be paid
by the executive council The mem
bers of the council think the governor
should pay the tax out of his fund for
maintenance of the executive mansion.
These officials contend that the con
struction Of sewers and the laying of
pavement constitute a maintenance of
the property under a strict interpreta-
ton of the law. The governor believes
that the bill should be paid out of the
fund for the Improvement and main
tenance of public property The case
probably will not reach the courts, and
it is expected that the question viii be
settled before the property Is sold. In
the meantime, however. the officers
are busy explaining their NEGLECT.

CARR TAYLOR IS AT HOME.
Has Been Taking Testimony ON Behalf

Carr Taylor. attorney for the state
board of railroad commissioners, re-
turned Friday from St. Louis. where
he has been taking testimony in the
mandamus suit to compel the Missouri
Pacific to run a passenger train on the
Mound City branch.
THE testimony which we took at
Mound City and st. Louis on this trip
was all on behalf of the state said
Mr.. Taylor. We believe that we can
show that the railroad company has
used an entirely wrong and mislead-
ing basis in its figures to show that the
operation of a passenger train on the
Mound City branch involved the com
pany in serious loss. The company
sought to consider this branch entirely
Independent Of the rest of the system.
The fact is that if the company would
put the road in good shape for opera
ton, it would show a profit on every
train. We took the testimony of
