A Little
Ingenue
BY BELLE MANDATES
Copyright, 1905, by P. c. Eastment

Back in the midst of hundred oaks
stood the rambling old farmhouse. its
lawn stretching into gardens, its gar
dens into orchards, orchards into mead
ideal old country place dwelt Elihu
Wilkes, a stern, puritanical old man,
his timid, docile wife and their or
phaned granddaughter, Helene Law
renee, who. despite the fact that her
upcoming had been strictly and nor
rowly supervised by her grandfather
and that she had been allowed no play
mates, was blooming into a winsome,
affectionate maidenhood.
The last month had been one Of de-
light to her. One day an automobile
had broken down near the house, and
its occupant. a beautiful young woman
from the city, had stayed there while
her chauffeur had returned for re-
pairs.
How it was accomplished was a mys-
terry, but Miss Marshall had won the
old mans consent to her becoming a
boarder at The Oaks for a few weeks
as she was in search of just such q
place for rest and quiet after a gay
season.
The night before her return to hel
home she took a beautiful stroll through
the woods with Helene, whose eye:
rested in wistful meditation upon hel
companion.
Louise" she said in soft voiced
tones, II am lonely and sad at the
thought of your leaving us"
MY dear little ingenue, 1 wish
could persuade your grandfather to lie
you accompany me. 1t is preposteroui
to think you have been shut up in ont
place, no matter how lovely it may be
for the whole of your life-never I,
have been to the city, even, or to hav'
seen any young men save the farmer
about here"
"Oh, Louise" said the young girl
with a bright blush, II went to thu
little station today, and l saw tn

At last we have the Muggsy McGraw
outfit from little old New York on our
grounds and it is up to the populace to
show them that the fan in Chicago diff
fers from the fan they are used to see
ing jump upon the field to attack an
umpire or a visiting player. There is
every chance in the world to let off en-
thusiasm without showing rowdyism.
Muggsy says that he is going to use
Mathewson again on the first game and
Chance will probably line up three
fingered Brown against the wonder. BY
the way the other teams have been
hammering Mathewson during the past
few weeks, it must be taken that he is
not in the best of condition while
Brown has been going in grand shape.
All the Cub pitchers are in the best
condition imaginable and they ought
to lead the New York bunch to the
slaughter.

A Case Which Disensts.

The case which is being tried before
Judge Artman at Lebanon is a sicken-
ing recital Of disgraceful events Elma
Dare a woman OF the under world is
charged with kidnapping George Rhod-
JUS. a palsied, broken, old man a 40.
In reality it IS a trial to determine
the sanity of Rhodius and also an eff
fort TO gain control Of the wealth of
the man. In so far as the Rhodius
money Is concerned it might be just
as we'll IL the Dare woman secure it,
for. from the financial standpoint. il
she falls. a lot of greed attorneys
win and Rhodius loses either way.
Eliminating the money side, the case
Is disgracefui not TO say indecent and
the worst feature is that the recital
may still be far from an end. The

nasty as most of 1t is the argument

gard

Officers Natural Anxiety.

Sir Douglass Straight told this tale
at a recent dinner of the Journeymen
Hairdressers' Trade society in Lon
don: When a young barrister he went
into a BARRIERS shop to be shaved and
was little startled to see the wom-
an cashier behind the counter star
ing at him from time to time through
the glass door. When he got outside
the shop a policeman said: Il am
very glad to find you have come out. .
The officer explained that he had been
anxious because the barber had just
come out of a lunatic asylum the pre-
vious week and his relatives were
wondering whether they would have
to send him back again.

In an Indiana town, sixteen women
attacked one man and whipped him be-
cause he persisted in brutally beating
his wife. Anybody find fault with the
ratio?" asks Bryans Commoner. No
one Will find fault with the ratio, per-
haps, but as to the incident, that's a
different thing. The story on which Mr..
Bryan bases his ancient joke is an in

Poor Martyr Timber.

The Haywood jury has been com
pleted and the defense is forced to ad-
nit that it cannot offer any objection
either to its personnel or to the man
ner of its selection. With this captious
crowd satisfied it may reasonably be
inferred that the court was more than
fair. And it is just as well that it is
so. Any suggestion of prejudice would
have had the effect of making martyrs
out of some mighty poor timber.

BRYAN At BALTIMORE
Banquetad by His Friends, but
Says Nothing About Run
ming for President.
UTTERANCEs IN AN INTERVIEW
Would Make Jefferson's Maxim tho
Keynote of the Next National
Campaign-Third Tern,
Ideas.

Baltimore, June 5. - William Jen-
nings Bryan delivered a lecture at the
Young Mems Christian Association.
Shortly after its conclusion he was
greeted by enthusiastically shouting
Democrats innumber sufficient to quite
fill the large dining room of the Eutaw
House, where a banquet was given in
his honor. Those at the table with
him included Governor Warfield. Sen,
atOr Rayner, Mayor Mahool, and, in
deed, nearly every one who enjoys
prominence in the ranks of the local
Democracy. If there was any expecta-
ton that Bryan would touch upon the
possibility Of his own candidacy or
that of Governor Warfield in the next
presidential campaign, it was disap-
pointed. He devoted himself to a dis
cussion of the excellence Of the pros
poets of the Democratic party.
Maxim of Thomas Jefferson.
During the course Of an interview
with a representative Of The News, in
reply to question as to what is the
most important principle to be applied
at this time, Bryan said: 1.-THE Jeffer-
son maxim-EQual rights to all and
special privileges to none-embodies
the governmental principle whose APP
plication is most needed. The abuses
of which the people complain arise
from the violation of this principle
Both Jefferson and Jackson pointed
out the evils of favoritism and privi-
lege, and those evils are especially no
ticeable at this time, when great cor
porations have secured such an infu-
ence in politics.
No Special Favors for the People.
The trust question. railroad ques
ton, tariff question-all illustrate the
oyershadowing influence of corporate
wealth. Favoritism in government op
| crates always in the interest Of tbs
| few and against the masses. The PEG
| pie as a whole can obtain no special
| favors from the government. If the
| people tried to vote themselves sub
| sides they would have to pay the in
creased taxes, and thus take the mon
ey out Of one pocket and put it into
! the other pocket"
His Views on Third Term.
Relative to a third term for any oc
cupant of the presidential office the
speaker said: when in congress
endeavored to secure an amendment
to the constitution making the presi
dent ineligible for second term, anC
in both of my campaigns I also an
nounced that if l was elected
l would not be candidate for sec
ond term. I would hardly look IA
vorably, therefore, upon third term
| assume that the president will ad
here to the opinion which he has ex
pressed on the subject. and will not b,
a candidate again. It would be a re
fection upon the success OF his admin
istrati0n if, coming in by an enormou
majority he had so reduced the popu
larity Of his party as to make il i'm
possible for any other Republican t

There was queer game Of baseball
in New York yesterday between the
Cleveland bunch and the Americans. It
was found necessary to question the
honesty of the outfield of the New
York team and Sheridan stopped the
game while he went out and searched
the pockets of the outfielders for an
extra ball. 1t is the first exhibition of
the kind for many years and it gave
the spectators a chance TO roast the
imp for all they were worth. Cleve-
land only got four hits off Ortiz while
the New Workers got ten of Rhoades,
but the formers wildness lost the game
