the unpalatable address to the King. and it is
recorded that on that occasion his attire caused
the greatest horror at court" AS knight of
the Shire the great Whig landowner had a
privilege which was seldom if ever exercised
the right TO appear before the King in ordinary
country garb of light leather breechcs. top
boots with spurs. a long tailed coat and
broad brimmed hat-and he deliberately availed
himself of this privilege. with some humorous
enjoyment, doubt of the dismay with which
his unceremonious aspect viewed. He felt,
perhaps. the less concern for the royal anger
and disgust that he found standing at the right
hand of George III the traitor. Benedict Arnold

America entertained very hearty contempt
Thomas William Coke the devoted follower of
Fox, had been. through the eight years of his
early Parliamentary career, of those true
friends of America Every night during the
American war" he once said did l drink
the health Of General Washington as the great

to the war and voted against it, not only be-
cause he its unwisdom from the selfish
point of view but above all things he believed
with Americans that taxation without represen-
tation was unjust. He opposed the policy he de-
tested with splendid force and daring. in the
vein of the toast which throughout his life he is
remembered giving every public occa-
sion:
A Ministry which will support what is right
And Parliament which will support nothing
wrong.
From the day he entered Parliament as the
youngest representative of the people he fought
consistently for the colonies. and naturally be
came peculiarly obnoxious to the King. For

On a certain winter day in 1882 stalwart
young country gentleman rose from his seat IN
the British House of Commons and moved that
the independence of America should be recog-
nized" The Tory half of the House, still at
one with the King in refusing to face the IN

suIIen determination to kill it. Throughout the
weary night the House sat, not a member on

SUNDAY. JANUARY 10, 1908.

Early in January the literary journalist who
has q statistical turn Of mind draws up list
of the books that have pleased him during the
wear lust ended. Discussing these as the books
of the year. he gravely records the advance or
decline of this or that form of creative art
Looking over one such recent summary we have
been struck by the futility of statistics where
works OF the Imagination are concerned. A
given period of twelve months may or may not
have produced great poet, dramatist or rO-
mancer but that proves little, if anything. You
may 20 to argue that poetry, for example, Is
dead but a master may turn up the next day.
On the other hand, there are kinds of literature
Of whose Indebtedness TO current conditions at
a given moment it is possible to speak with
some sense of touching tangible thing Thus
there is one type of book which may be said to
have come into its own within the last few
years and to have been especially we'll developed
in 1907. We refer TO the book Of historical
biography There never was year. of course,
without its solid contributions in this domain
Of research but never before has there been so
steady production of memoirs, both "sch0l-
arlv" and 'pOpUlar' Published by itself, or in
some series, the monograph on a great figure,
or a minor one, in Statecraft. war, social or in
Custrial development. science or art, has reached
the point where it rivals the novel in the favor
of the public.

When at last Coke accepted his peerage at the
hands of the girl-queen. Victoria il was in his
old age when there could be politics in the
ofer-only veneration for an aged man who had
been in all respects blessing to his country
There are countless anecdotes Of the Lord Of
HoIkham and his contemporaries scattered
through these volumes there are beguiIing ac-
counts of his beautiful family life-he married
by the way. as his second wife. lady fifty
years younger than himself. who was deeply
in love with him and blissfuIly happy with him
and we would like to quote more than one
of these. But for lack Of space we must end
with an unusually just comment made BY that
sharp tOngued woman. Lady Holland Coke
did not approve OF her and would not ask her
to Holkham- Yet she did justice to the generous
soul of the first gentleman Of Engiand' when
at dinner some one remarked that Coke was
man who would share his last crust wiki
friend That he wouldn't contradicted Lady
Holland in her authoritative manner He'd
give his friend the crust entire and 50 without

HE HAD PROBABLY StfN MRS. GUINNESS AS CHILD
A Phoenix Man Who Knew the Paul sen Performers in Norway.

James Helmer, a resident of PhOe- nix believes that he used to see Mrs Gunness, the La Porte murderess, when she was a child about eighteen years old. He has read in the dis patches that she was a daughter of a man named Paulsen, a travelling per former in Norway. and MT. Helmer remembers the Paulsen family well, though he was only nine years old when he last saw the theatrical family. The Paulsens, every summer, made a tour of the west coast of Norway eX- hibiting at the great fairs which were held twice a year, beginning at Til rum, the southern most point within Mir Helmer's recollection, and running as far up the coast as StokmarsnOss. Midway was Bjorgledinsberg, the nearest fair to the island off the coast where MT. Helmer's people were en- gagged in fishing. Bjorgledinsberg was a great fishing and boat manufactur- ing town and when the fairs were held there the islanders visited that place to buy boats. The Paulsens were all ways there. MT. Helmer remembers distinctly the elder Paulsen and his
  ingly handsome men he ever saw. There were several children. boys and girls. in the family, all singers or Oth- CT contributors to the entertainments with which the Paulsens amused the populace. The children also used to sing on the streets and he remembers little girls who were probably eight or ten years of age. MT. Helmer is not sure whether these were the children of the elder Paulsen or his son.
 The Paulsens were not understood to be NOrwegians but Danes, and their starting point each season was Copen- hagen. That is, they were called Danes, but they were probably descen- dents of Tyrolese of whom a great many settled in Denmark about the first of the last century Nearly all travelling performers in that part of the world were called TyrOlese by the natives.
 The Paulsens were singers, dancers and trapeze performers. No other Paulsen family ever visite1 that part of Norway and MT. Helmer remembers having heard of no other engaged in the theatrical business.
 . Mrs. Guinness is now forty-seven years of age and that is also the age of MT. Helmer so that one of those little girls that he used to see and hear singing about the streets of Bjorgledinsberg is now the most talk ed of woman in the world

One of the prisoners was Billy Wat erman, TOnto Apache, under a sen tence of twenty years for the murder of his brother who was known as Henry Smith. The killing took place in Slaughterhouse Gulch, near Fort Whipple, in November of last year.
 Another member of the contingent was Feliciano Feliz, who was sen fenced to three years for horse steal ing. The crime was committed at Octave in March of this year and the thief came into this part of the country and was captured at Roose- welt after having wandered the whole length of the valley.
 J. H. Frye, another member, is under five year sentence for horse stealing. His crime was committed against the Fashion stables of Pres colt. The fourth member was J. M.
