Eyes, needed the rest, Mrs. Oswell.
I am such a conscientious person I
take everything too hard. OF course
I don't have to do any actual work
myself-we have three maids and
man-but it's looking after them all
that completely wears me out" Mrs.
Klinker, in handsome new black and
white foulard silk gown rocked back
and forth on the wide veranda of the
Ocean house, and complacently patted
the green leaf she had just embroid-
cred. II have the best husband in the
world and he won't allow me to raise
my f1nger-but still there's so much
that insist upon doing myself. My
charities take time, and my clubs-oh,
quantities of time, dear Mrs. Oswell
and then have daughter who is
a great girl for society and | have to
go about with her a great deal, though
I don't care for it in the least, myself.
Still, I do everything to please Albert
and the children. If I'm a too self
sacrificing wife and mother | suppose
I'll get my reward in the next world if
not in this. I can just see how they
miss me at home now. But should
have broken down had I not had a
complete change and rest.
81 didn't even bother bringing any
Of my handsome clothes with me.
don't care how I look way off here
among strangers What's the use Of
going away to relax if you've got to
change your dress 40 times day, say
l. simply refuse to do it! I'm here
to rest. Oh, is it SO near dinner time?
Pardon me, I must run up and put on
my lavender dimity before the bell
rings! At home, we always dress for
dinner"

Belle and Fannie Sampson, Negresses, Both Want to Care For Their Aged Parent
IN COUNTY COURT
One Is Charged With Taking Mother Away From the Others Home Af. ter Having Her Custodian Arrested on a Lunacy Charge.

Belle and Fannie Sampson, ne- gresses and sisters, will figure in rather sensational and interesting case in County Judge James Gould's courtroom Wednesday of this week. Their mother, an aged woman who Is deprived of her voice by paraly- sis and who is said to be the pos sessor of property of some great value, is the bone of contention in the legal proceedings and the hear ing gives promise of revealing no few sensations that will set the col ored folk of Pine Bluff talking.
 It seems that both of the daugh ters, neither of whom have very good reputation, are desirious of caring for their aged parent. Sev- eral days ago, it is alleged, Belle Sampson went to the office of Jus tice J. A. Frazier in this city and secured a warrant against her sis ter, Fannie Sampson, charging her with lunacy. She at the same time it is said applied for papers giving into her custody her aged mother, who was at that time in Fannie Sampson's care. The sisters line in different parts of the city.
 When the officers went to Fannie Sampsons home to arrest her on the lunacy charge, Belle Sampson, it is charged, went to the home of her sister in a carriage and carried her aged mother away to her own home. When the case of Fannie Sampson was called in the justice court, Justice Frazier is said to have concluded that Fannie Sampson was not of unsound mind. The case was dropped without further proceeding.
 Later Fannie Sampson, through her attorneys, w. B. Sorrells and Creed Caldwell, secured a revoka- tion of the papers issued to her sis ter, Belle in which the latter was given the custody of her mother. The proceeding brought forth a wrangle between the two women and Judge Gould took the woman in charge and placed her ln the care of Emma Phillips. another ne- gress. where she will remain until the case is finally disposed of on Wednesday of this week.
 Belle Sampson has employed Attorneys Nixon and Shaw to repl e. sent her at the hearing. The sis ters are listing many witnesses mad the final hearing gives every eyi- dence of being an interesting one. Fannie Sampson is quoted as hay ing said that her sister, Belle, could have her mothers property if she wanted it, but she wanted to care for her.

Pies ParaIyzed Him.

Because he was unable to curb his
relish for pie Charles e. Knowlton,
seventy-three years old, who was
noted for his strength in pulling open
balky doors of iron safes, died yes

''He admired my ples for thirty
years before we were married." said
the widow last night, "and he was
just as fond of them afterwards"
Knowlton was also greatly devoted
to outdoor sports. He recently re-
turned from vacation at Deposit, N.
Y, where he played baseball walked
many miles every day and drove in a
sulky behind fast horse. His doc
tor vainly warned him that pie and
cake formed poor diet for man of
his age who took so much exercise.
Knowlton only smiled. The paralysis
