WOMAN AS JAILER.
POSITION IS HEIRLOOM
Care of Rhode Island Insti- tuition in Family for
 Years.

Down in the quaint old village of East Greenwich, where the ancient penal institution known as the Kent county jail dozes lazily near the shore of the bay, Mrs. Evelyn G. Smith holds the unique position of jailer and has the distinction of being the only woman at the head of an institution of this sort in the New England states. The Kent county jail was erected about 100 years ago, and for the great CT part of that time has been handed down in Mrs. Smiths family like an ancient heirloom. It is the only home that the present keeper has ever known and in spite of the seeming in congruity of her sex and position, she enjoys the work and thus far has ex- periencel less trouble with unruly pris- oners than have men in similar posi- tions.
 The jail consists of a large two and a half story house of the boxlike type that is found all over Rhode Island as landmarks of q century ago. In the rear of the old fashioned house is a : large wing constructed of brick, which contains the, cells. The wing was built about seventeen years ago and took the place of frame structure of the same size and shape.
 Mrs. Smith owes her present position to an incident that happened in the hazy history of sixty-fye years ago. At that time in Kent county jail was placed in charge of Earl Place, as grandunele of Mrs. Smith. He held the title for a couple of years, when it was passed along to his brother, Jothan Place, who was Mrs. Smiths grandfa- ther. When he died his son, John B. Place, inherited his property and the title of official jailer.
 John s. Place, Mrs. Smiths father, retained the title during his lifetime, with the exception of few years, when he trayeled for his health, and thus it was that the present keeper became ae- quainted with the duties at very ear " age.
 His daughter was united in, marriage with Jothan s. Smith, and when her father died thirty-five years ago her husband was appointed to succeed him. He held the position for eight years, and as there were no more male heirs to the title it was thought that it would pass out of the family.
 Soon after her husband dSAd Mrs. Smith began to make preparations to remove from what had always been her home, when she was approached by the officials of Kent county and re- quested to assume charge of the place on her own responsibility During the failing health of her husband she had practical control of the jail, and the county officials expressed the belief that with her intimate knowledge of the institution she would be better able to direct it's affairs better than a man who lacked the knowledge and experi-

If those who make this charge will Ils- ten to the voice of the man in the street they will find that the press in terprets that voice fairly well. De- spite the increase of Soeianstic doc Urine among us we are not yet ready as a people to take our economic in struction from the professors of that doctrine. Nor are we ready to face the results which indiscriminate abuse of public officials may bring about. The allusions to the President are not in themselves important; they come from men of no weight beyond the immedi- ate circle of their admirers. Yet thev cannot fail to create a certain feeling of uneasiness. The mouthings of more than one orator have led to unspeak- able crimes. When MT. Roosevelt is hissed by an excited mob the American people remember who was responsible for the assassination of his predeces- sor. The so-called sympathizers with labor are treading on dangerous ground.-Providence Journal.

GRAYs' TICKET SALE.
Big Demand for Tickets at Yesterday.
 Opening.

Yesterday morning at the New Ha- ven the&ter the tickets for the opera to serve, but he was unableto find Reid, Friday and Saturday nights went on sale. The line of those waiting to se- cure their tickets was an extensive one, and the first arrivals were nline at 5 o'clock this morning.
 That the opera is to be a success financially is now certain, for the sale of tickets to-day has been enormous and far ahead of the first days sale of seats for "The Mocking Bird" last years production by this company.
 The demand for tickets is equally divided between the various nights of the performance, Friday night possibly having a slight preference, as it Is to be military night, when Governor Woodruff and his staff are expected to be present.
 The Grays have just announced a new song, which is to be sung for the first time. It is Sweetheart Mine" and was composed by George Chad- wick Stock. It has been dedicated to the Grays. The song is duet, and will be sung by Miss May Bradley and MT. Fred D, Adams.

Some of them were resembled honey comb, and some were in plaids, in the midst of each of which was wrought a flower 1t would trouble painter ito initiate. Cash meres resembling velvet were also very popular. They were corded, frizzled, spotted in all colors. and enlivened with small flowers. Some were knotted on the surface as if sprinkled with golden sand mixed with samIl emeralds and precious stones.
 Vestings were certainly gay; but that they did not seem extravagantly so at the time is evidenced by a remark of Scott apropos to some new patterns he had been describing. He ingenuously says: "We rather like a little display in matters of dress

CROP CONDITIONS.
In the Northwest-By No Means Hope
 less.

St. Paul, Minn., May e-While crop conditions in the northwest are back ward so far as seeding is concerned on account of the late cold weather, the condition is not by any means hope less, according to reports which have been received in the crop reporting de- partment of the Northern Pacific rail- road at headquarters here, Their latest advices indicate that seeding is two or three weeks later than a year ago and it is estimated that 25 or 30 per cent. of the seeding has been completed. Wheat seeding may continue to May 15 with the assurance of the usual crop. Whatever land is left after that will have to be devoetd to flax and other grains.
 The abundance of snow on the ground and the late moisture Is looked upon as a benefit rather than hin- drance.

 Green Have the Disease.


 Thompsonville, May 6.-What the physicians believe to be well developed eases of smallpox have been brought to light on Cottage green, in the family Of MT. and Mrs. D. Landry. Six of the family are ill with the disease. Dr. J. F. McHugh was first called to attend the patients, and being in doubt as to It's nature, called in DTS. Parsons, Finch and Varno. All agree that the symp- toms are those of smallpox. The house has been quarantined and all necessary precautions taken to prevent the spread of the dread disease. An order will probably be issued at once directing that all children be vaccin- ated, It is not known how many may have been exposed before the nature of the disease was known.
