RoMNEY PORTRAIT OF THOMAS PAINE.

Paine. not easy, pleasing and scholarly,
like Jefferson. Moreover, it is full Of
Paine's stock words, used in the same
way that he used them. The cumula-
tive manner Of piling UP the accusa-
tions against the King is in keeping
with Paine's sledge hammer way and is
not at all after the manner Of the Sage
of Monticello" There are at least two
misspelled words in the draft, and bad
spelling was not a fault of Jefferson.

litical documents. The most conspicu-
GUS advocates of the idea are Van Blu
rem Denslow and William Henry Burr.
Among the proofs brought forward to
support this theory, brief mention may
be made Of the following:
Ffrst.-The tradition above referred to
that Paine wrote the Declaration. In
this connection it may be well to state
that about a hundred years ago a
newspaper at Newark. n. j., intimated
that Jefferson was not the real author.
but that a we'll known writer was and
used other references clearly referring
to Paine. t..
Second.-The literary style is that of
Paine rather than that of Jefferson. 1t
is simple, forceful. epigrammatic, like

matter which has not seemed to ex-

occurred until recently to any con-

themselves wise as to how the ex-

Is betrayed.
No one has yet risen in his place
and questioned the privilege of the
chief executive to travel about his own
country in a fashion commensurate
both with his comfort and his dignity.
The free and equal" clause of the con-
stitution seems to dispose of that pref
~ effectually. When those of oppo-
site political tendencies express their
aisapproval of what is known in cam
paign parlance as presidential jun
keting" II is not likely that they expect
to be taken too seriously: they know
perfectly well that with the next
change of administration they may be
compelled to defend what they are then
attacking.

The adorable Patti.

The famous Adelina Patti, always
young, despite her years, first appeared
in 1859, at the New York Academy OF
Music. She was brought forward under
the direction of her kinsman and mas
ter, Maurice Strakosch, in the title role
OF "Luci di Lammermoor." She was
then only 16 years old, but had already
learned to manage her voice, a flute-like
flexible soprano, with extraordinary
skill and taste, and capable critics at
once recognized in the Gebutante one
Of those rare singers who appear at
long intervals on the musical horizon
to revive not only the hopes of man
ayers, but the enthusiasm of the public.
This prediction had quick fulfilment.
After a short initial engagement in
Philadelphia, Nile. Patti, piloted by
Strakosch, embarked on a concert tour
which ended at New Orleans, whence
she sailed for London where she may
be said to have fairly begun a career,
which, like her art, must remain long
unique in lyric annals. Thereafter for
upward Of 40 years, she held first place,
and during the greater part Of that
time, she was not only a sweeter, but
better singer than any other woman
in the world. Her name lends a gold.

A Git With Each Ticket.

George Adams, the manager Of the
Crystal Theatre of Denver, is operating
his playhouse upon unique lines. For
some time he has given away souvenirs
to all his patrons, some Of them Of
considerable value. He has now stocked
a large store with about everything
that is needed in housekeeping, and is
issuing a trading stamp or coupon with
every ticket to the theater. The value
Of each coupon is ten cents and these
trading coupons can be exchanged al
the store for articles ranging from ten
cents to twenty-five dollars.
Mr.. Adams has just imported car
load of dishes from Germany, and he
states that he has, during the winter,
already given away, to Crystal Theater
goers, more than three car loads OF
articles.
