stnrr in 4 Strange Play.

When Miss Marlowe and Mr.. Sothern
played last in Atlanta they w4re greeted
by a very large house. The dusky house
maid in a certain prominent family oc-
cupied a balcony seat in a group Of high
flyers in darktown society. Next day her
mistress was furious TO know Lilly's
opinion Of the play and players. Her
questions betrayed Lillys ignorance OF
even the name Of the play
Lilly assured her mistress, however,
that a paper. brought home as a cher
ished souvenir, would tell the name.
Returning. programme in hand, she ex-
claimed:

NEW WORD FOR POLITICIANS.
Campbell Bannerman's Forward
SIidinEs" Fitted to Roosevelt.


From the Ncg York Post
The English Prime Minister, in the
course of "a good-natured speech 10 his
constituents. the other day. giving an
account Of his stewardship, used a phrase
in which there is implied a good deal of
political philosophy.
Sir Henry spoke of the way IN which
his followers had stood by him in the
House. They had, he said. been guilty
of no "backslidings. or, what is almost
worse, observation-disclosures
What Campbell appears TO
have had in mind was the danger Of
rushing the party into premature legis-
latOn. building too ambitious program
mes; undertaking too much. and growing
impatient and sullen if the millennium
was not brought on. as President Har-
rison said that Mr.. Roosevelt always
wanted to bring IL on, right away"

OAKLAND, Nov. 26.---A day of
long search for more victims of the
murderous rage of NJ. A. wilkins,
the Elmhurst man, resulted fruitless-
ly. When Sheriff Barnett and a
posse of Oakland police left the Will
kins home at midnight last night
after unearthing the partly decom-
posed body of Verna Wallace, who
has been passing as Wilkins WIFE,
they were of the belief that one more
victim at least was buried on the
property. The supposed victim is T.
Earl Kimmons, a striking San Fran
cisco carman, who knew of Wilkins
relations with the Wallace woman
and who, according to the sheriff,
had aroused wilkins jealousy. Kim
mons has been missing since July 23.
Following out the theory that Kim
mons dead body was buried some
where on the Wilkins property near

dug up today, but nothing was found
Though baffled in their efforts to
find trace of Kimmons the author

dered his wife. An aubsf,ssy sur
geon this afternoon made an exami-
nation of the body that developed
the fact that the dead woman was
gagged This would prevent her
making an outcry had Wilkins used
violent means to accomplish her
death. The body was too far decom-
posed to determine whether there
were any marks of violence on the
body. The woman had been in quick
line nearly five months In addition
to the gag, the autopsy surgeon dis
covered the corpse contained the un-
born body of a babe seven months
old. Wilkins is in jail, and still

SECOND
trial POSTPONED

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-The sec
ond trial of Harry Kendall Thaw the
slayer of Stanford White, set for one
week from tomorrow, will be post
poned again and there is little chance
that it will be called until some date
well along in January
The decision to ask for a post
ponement has been agreed to by
both sides. 1t is due partly to the
fact that the task of securing a jury
would be made doubly hard because
of the approach of the holidays and
the prospect of talesmen spending
both Christmas and New Years
locked up under the care of court
baliffs and also to the fact that
Thaw's counsel has applied to the
court for permission to inspect the
secret evidence presented before the

CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, Nov. 26-Sher-
man Cass, school teacher, has been
in Jail here for two months for debt,
and under the laws of the state it is
possible to keep him there for the
rest of his life.
The parents of a child whom Cass
chastised recently secured Judgment
against him for $1800 Cass could
not pay and was sent to the debtors
cell. Under the law he can be kept
imprisoned as long as the plaintiffs
in the case pay his board regularly
each week. So far they have done
so.
The case makes it plain that a per-
son with grudge against another
may by securing a, judgment keep
him in jail just as long as revenge
continues to be worth the price of
the plain fare furnished prisoners in
the county jails.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 26.-R. H.
Linderman, proprietor of hotel at
Washington Park boulevard, Shelf
field. in the eastern part of this city,
said tonight that Mrs. Cameron
boarded at his hotel year ago.
When the name NJ A. Wilkins was
mentioned, Linderman refused to
talk about Mrs. Cameron, but evinc-
ed a great interest in Wilkins and
asked many questions about him.
The boarders at the hotel, however,
said Wilkins also boarded at the ho-
tel year ago and that he married
Linderman's daughter. Neighbors
say that Linderman's daughter left
here several months ago, and that
her father had not heard from her
for long time. The man supposed
to be wilkins and who married Lin
derman's daughter went under the
name of Cameron while at Sheffield,
and was married under that name.

the growing ease of call money on
