Chicago.-The Wednesday club. at its
weekly luncheon at the Grand Pacific
hotel yesterday, prepared and for
warded the following letter:
To District Attorney Jerome. New
York: The members of the Wednes-
day club of Chicago. wish to send you
some remarks.
First, had you rested your case at the
end of the direct examination of Eve
Ign Nesbit Thaw you could have had
all New York, Chicago and America
behind you for anything you wanted.
At the close of your cross examination
Of that witness New York, Chicago and
America has you behind them and want
you for nothing.
2. In our belief an oath of office is
secondary to the oath as a man. We
do not know whether or not you ever
took the latter oath.
8. We admire good women more
than bad, but any woman on earth
more than rotten man like Stanford
White, who was all a citizen should
not be and all gentleman or, IMAM
could not be.
4. We believe in two sexes. But we
think the game Of sex ought to be
played fair. Stanford White did not
play 1t fair.
s.. We think also that the game of
law ought to be played fair. In our
belief you have not played it fair.
6. We believe in helping any woman
as much as possible, not in hurting
any woman as much as possible. And
IL yours is the idea Of New York fair
play-as we do not believe 1t to be
then providence deliver America from
New York and New York from you.
Girl Exhausted by Laughter.
Florence, N. Eight hours of con :
tinuous laughter, from to 10 O'Clock,
with scarcely a minute of rest, was the
discomfort endured by Miss Barbara
Barr Of this city, member of the Bap-
fist church choir. Miss Barr was Wis
iting at the home of friends yesterday
afternoon when some one made witty
remark which aroused her mirth.
After a few minutes the girl found 1t
was impossible to stop laughing. Her
laughter could be heard for square.
All kinds Of plans to stop her Were
tried, but without success. Physicians
were summoned and conveyed the ex-
hausted and semi conscious girl to her
home.
Miss Barr grew weaker every minute.
Still laughing, she sank into slumber
and the spell gradually passed away.
Kissed the Actress.
Des Moines.- won't You Come Up
and Kiss Me-" sang Mabel Royister,
the prettiest girl in Williams troupe,
which appeared at the Grand Monday
night She sang her song with a vigor
that brought the blood to the faces OF
the victims that she singled out in her
audience. Walking almost to the
wings, the girl leaned far over the
lower box on the south side of the
theater and sang in the faces Of the oc-
cupants Unable to resist the dare, one
Of the occupants fairly jumped over
the box. slasped the actress in his arms
and kissed her.
His action received tremendous ap-
plause. The girl faltered thru the bal
ance OF her song and failed to answer
calls for an encore.
When seen at the hotel Miss Royis-
ter was asked whether she would con-
tinue to sing that song. II think
will she said "That is the first time
that anyone has ever accepted my dare
and was so surprised that didn't
know what to do. He seemed to be a
rather nice man and hope he was suf-
ficiently rewarded for his trouble"
