COURTS AND CRIEIOsBlE

A professor Of political economy a1 the Washington state univer'Ity ha' hsd the temsrity to attack the supreme court of the United S,ato5, and lot of Seattle lawyers are holding their hands sk7vard in holy horror. The old con- santion Is advanced that she courts should be exempt from criticism. Psr- .lcularly is is coatended that this sI- smption should apply to the supreme courts.
 The professor has the best Of the argument. The lawyers are making mistake. The people will no longer conceds thsl there is anything more sssrsd about the judiciary than there is about the executive or the Legislative branches of the govern msat. They will not admit that there ia any mysterious wisdom about the legal profession that laymen are Prohi- bited from judging it's judges and hold Iug them to Q strict accountability.
 It istrue, iE will be freely admitted that permisouous criticism of courts by those who know little or nothing Of what they speak is not 9 good thing Neither iB uuiotslligeuJ and irresrOnHl- ble criticism of anyone or aoythiug good. But we cannot have too much of capable and honest criticism about any public institution or o6cial--and this applies to trs courts as well as to any thing else. The law being technical, there are, probably, fewer persona who are qualified lo crigiciss the judicial branch ot the government Ghsa ia the ease with the other branches, but that la all.
 If they would defend the supreme court from ProtJ Allen Smi.h'B attack 1t ls up to the lawyers to ShOw that his criticism is not baBed on fact or that his conclusions gre erroneous. To deny his right to critjciss were worse than foolish

Good Prospect of Saving City of Lnw-
 rence-Replaced by Old Steamer.
 New London, July 9.-The veteran. iron steamboat, City of Lawrence, of the Consolidated Railway lines, which crashed onto Black Rock in @ dense fog at 1010 Tuesday morning, is still fast on the rock, but the T. A. Scott Wrecking company, which has the con tract to float the big steamer, is at work and expects to get her afioat In a few days. Meanwhile, the old steamer Block Island, which was replaced by the City of Lawrence, is running on the line in charge of Captain Henry Phelps, who. with his pilot, was at the wheel when the Lawrence went aground.
 Dlver Phalberg, at work for the Scott company, went down under the bottom of the Lawrence this morning and found three large holes, all of which were located in the second com partment forward of the engine room. These holes are several feet in diame- ter and very in size. The steamer Is in no immediate danger from a storm un- less a strong southwest gale springs up, which the wreckers believe is quite inn probable at this season.

SAYS SEE IS NOT
 ENGAGED 10 TWAIN Miss I. V. Lyon Says There is No Truth in Report
 Current in New York. SHE IS HIS SECRETARY And Has Proved Invaluable to Him-Was Secretary
 to Late Mrs. Clemens.

Reports that Mir Samuel L. Clemens (Mark Twain) and Miss I. V. Lyon, who is his private secretary, were en- gagged to be married were current yes- terday in literary circles, says the New York Herald today. Miss Lyon was with Miss Clemens, MT. Clemens daughter, on Monday, when the steam ship Rosalind, on which they were passengers, came into collision with another vessel near Halifax She was seen yesterday at the Nova scotian port and emphatically denied that there was any truth in the rumor.
 T hope that you will contradict the report you have mentioned" she said to a correspondent for the Herald. T am so glad that I saw you in order that might thus be able to give this unqualified denial, and hope you will telegraph it to the Herald, You will, won't you? I have for five years been MT. Clemens private secretary and look after his affairs
 Miss Lyon said that Miss Clemens had been i'll and they were on their way to St. Johns, Newfoundland, but since the collision they had decided to abondon the eastern part of their trip. They will stay in Halifax for a few days and re-embark for New York when the Rosalind returns. The Her aid further says:
 Miss Lyon, although she has re- Icently been the secretary for Mr.. Clemens, acted in the same capacity for the late Mrs. Clemens for several years. On account of her attention to detail and her ability to keep track of engagements she has been Invaluable Ito Mir. Clemens. She is petite and has a charm of manner and speech. Her accent is decidedly English, although she is a native of New England. Miss Lyon has been for years a close friend sof MT. Clemens daughter, The au- thor. expects to return here in two weeks and will go to Tuxedo. His friends in New York did not place any credence in the report of the engage ment. MT. Clemens is in his seventy first year"
 Miss Isabel Lyon is very well known | III AAoA IlOlhs olS was MI oNNGl al years superintendent of the Wom- ans Exchange on Pearl street. After the death of her father, who was a college professor in New York, her mother settled in Farmington, and the home has been maintained there Miss Lyon acted as a governess in Phila- delphia and in Europe before coming to the Womans Exchange. Several years ago she became private secre- tary to Mrs. Clemens and accompa- nied the family when they went to Italy. After the death of Mrs. Glenn ems she may be said to have become a household necessity In the Clemens family as the daughters were deli- cate and she has fine executive capacity, which enabled her to be very helpful in her position both as private secretary to Mark Twain and social manager for the family. Miss
 Lyon is about 40 years of age and Is regarded as a most capable and &C., complished woman by very large circle of friends.

E. n. FooTn HOME.
State Street Merchant Turns Up Safe
 and Sound.

Edward R. Foote of the A. Foote company, the State street fish dealers, who went to New York on June 18th, and was expected back the same day did not show up until the 18th of the month. It was feared that MT, Foote had met with foul play and when it was discovered that the affairs of the firm wer in none too good condition the fear that he had taken his life be- came prevalent among all but those who knew him best. They secuted the suicide idea and their confidence in him turned out to be justified.
 MT. Foote in explaining the cause of his absence said that he had suf- fered an attack of the "blues" which were brought on by the knowledge of the unusual condition of the firm and did not want to come back, He said that although the firm was in the hands of receiver he expected 1t would not be there long as they were going to work hard and place the busi- ness on paying basis.

SUBPOENA SERVED.

equipped with searchlight to disclose the presence of any possible process servers who might try to reach him by night
 During the few moments that Dep- uty Brink was on the piazza of the Ta- conic farm Mir. Rockefeller excused himself twice to answer long distance calls on the telephone.
 Quite Cordial to Marshal.
 As the officer was leaving the house MT. Rockefeller again shook hands with him, said he was glad to have met him and added, If you are ever near my home hope you will come and call on me-"
 It was about 3:15 when the subpoena was served, and twenty minutes later the officer was back in Pittsfeld and by telephone notified United States Marshal Darling of the Boston office, of the success of his mission Marshal Darling Immediately conveyed the news to Marshal Henkel, of New York.
 It Is thought that MT. Rockefeller was advised, after the morning call of the officers, that he had better accept service. It is pointed out that he would have been able to evade the deputy marshal this afternoon had he so de- sired, inasmuch as that official had no search warrant and could not have searched the house. even if he had been confident that the object of his quest was within.
 Probably There Since Last Thursday.
 Although no positive information on the subject can be obtained, it Is gem erally believed that MT. Rockefeller has been at Taconic farm since last Thurs day night, In reply to questions re- gardlng MT. Rockefeller's presence at Taconic farm, MT. Prentice on Satur- day said that MT. Rockefeller was not there and offered a reward of $50,000 to any one who could prove that his fath- er-in-law was in Pittsheld. On Mon day night, when interviewed by a num- Der of reporters, Mir. Prentice said that the offer of the reward was substan- tially correct, and added that no one had at that time come forward to claim it, It Is understood that MT, Prentice will be called up by persons interested to live up to the terms of his offer. When the officers called in the fore noon the family was at breakfast. MT. Prentice came out on the piazza and his wife and child could be seen through the dining room window, but there was no trace of Mir. Rockefeller.
 The news that Mir. Rockefeller had been served personally with the sub poena came as surprise here to-day, as it was believed that, so far as Pitts field was concerned, the search for the oil man had ended when the officers left
