PICTURE Of EVELYN

Goes as Judgment for Mill
ner'S Bill.

New York, Sept. 15.-When the sher-
iff seized a portrait of Mrs. Harry K.
Thaw, owned by her. it developed a
milliner had obtained judgment
against her September for 1896.
The portrait is a study in brown of
Mrs. Thaw by Harrington Mann, and
she is said to have posed for it at the
request of Stanford White. 1t is in
closed in a brass frame which was de-
signed by Mr.. White. 1t is believed the
picture would bring much more than
the amount of the judgment if put up
at a sheriffs sale.
The original bill of the milliner
was for 1856, representing purchases
on two days, including waists at 1925
and S135 each and a skirt at $40
Payments aggregating $3.50 were made
on account and then were stopped.

showing How 1t May Sometimes Pay
to BE a Poor Writer.
Not many lawyers write legibly, and
the late William NJ. Evarts wrote such
an execrable hand that it was very Of
ten difficult to read it. This caused a
mistake at one time which resulted in
the eminent lawyer receiving retain

eminent member of the New York bar.
was counsel for one of the legatees in
the celebrated Stokes will case years
ago, in which the late DR.. Henry P.
Stearns was one of the expert wit
nesses. Something like $15, 100000 was
involved, and Mr.. Butler told his eli
ent that he would like an associate in
the conduct Of the case. He was asked
whom he would suggest, and he said
he thought Mr.. Evarts would be the
best man owing to his superior knowl-
edge Of the law and his great reputa-
ton as an advocate. The client agreed,
and Mr.. Butler was instructed to see
If Mr.. Evarts would come into the
case.
Accordingly Mr.. Butler wrote to Mr.
Evarts and invited him to be associat-
ed in the case and name his retaining
fee. In due time he received a reply,
which he saw at a glance was in the
Affirmative and, without stopping to
read 1t further, slipped it into another
envelope and mailed it to his client
In a day or two he received call from
Mr.. Evarts, who inquired what sort OF

1t was apparent that Mr.. Evarts

CANNON'S ACTION
Congressman Littlefield Re-

OPPOSITION GRoUNDLESS,
FULL EXPLANATION OF THE LIT
TLEFiELD BILL AND ITS FATE
GIVEN, IN ATTEMPT TO LIFT
ALL BLAME.

New York, Sept. 15.-The action of
tne Methodist denomination in oppos-
ing Speaker Cannon on the ground
that he strangled the Littlefield bill,
which was designed to prevent ship
ment of intoxicating liquors into pro-
hibition districts, has called forth a
letter from ex-Congressman Littlefield
to Speaker Cannon, in which he says:
AS to the Littlefield bill, which l
was not able to get reported from the
committee at the last session. no one
has any authority from me to hold
you responsible for that result. | sup
pose l ought in fairness to say that
this bill raises some grave and close
constitutional questions. While l feel
that the bill would be sustained, and
think it ought to pass, the question is
by no means free from doubt, and l
would not for a moment think of in
timating that those who take the op-
posite view are insincere or dishon-
est. In fact some of the ablest lawyers
that | know entertained that view. 1t
is not to be assumed, | take it, that
when a member is elected speaker he
ceases to have opinions and is depriv-
ed of the right to express and maintain
them that other members enjoy with
out subjecting himself to the charge
of being a dictator of the house to
the reproach of a lack of virility.
The election of speaker should
not in my judgment. emasculate either
the speaker or the house. That intelli-
gent, conscientious and earnest men
should disagree on important questions
is, | take it, inevitable. | certainly
hope that any view that you may en-
terrain on this question will not en-
barass you in your campaign, as
think I fully realize, If your constit-
uents do not. the Importance to the
party and to the country of having a
man of your ability, intelligence, in.
dependence, courage and intimate
knowledge of pubic affairs not only in
the house of representatives. but in
the position which you now fill with
such great acceptance to all of the
members"

BREWERS AFTER
SPEAKER BRANCH
Would Gust Him as Officer in
Coming Extra LegisIa-
tive Session.
HOPED TO BALK HANLY.
CLAIMED THERE ARE A FEW RE-
PUBLicANS WHO WILL WILL
INGLY TAKE SUCH SLAP BY
STANDING WITH MINORITY.

Indianapolis, Sept. 15.-In the hope
of thwarting the plan of. Governor
Hanly and the republican organization
to pass a county local option measure
at the special session of the legislature
beginning Friday, it was reported last
night that the brewery combine was
engineering a movement to defeat
Representative Branch of Martinsville
for speaker of the house.
1t is said that the situation has been
canvassed thoroughly by the brewers
and that they believe Branhc can be
turned down if four or five republic
cans will vote with the democrats.
If the plan can be worked it is very
likely that Representative Thomas Ho-
nan. of Seymour, will be elected speak
er. There are So republicans in the
house and AZ democrats. Four republi-
cans could elect a. democratic speaker
by breaking away from their own or
ganiZation.
1t is declared that there are more
than four anti-Hanly representatives
who would like nothing better than to
humiliate the governor at the very
start by ousting his friend Branch,
whom he elected speaker two years
ago.
1t is said that the governor feels that
Branch will be retained as speaker I'M
Ger the parliamentary rules govern
ing the proceedings of the house. This
view is shared by the leaders of the re-
publican campaign, who are anxious
that Branch shall be continued as
speaker. He is in sympathy with the
movement to enact a county local OPP
ton law. The republican campaign
managers figure that If he presides
there will be less likelihood of trouble
than with q new man who might not
be friendly.
That the republicans will be able to
obtain the passage of the county local
option bill at this session is predicted
by members of their organization,
who say that every republican member
of the house except one had promised
to vote for it.
On the other hand statements made
by the democratic leaders say that
every one of their members in the
house has pledged himself to vote
against county local option, so that, if
the bill is passed, it must be by repub-
lican votes alone.

ATTACK ON CLERGY BRUTAL
EXECUTIVE TELLS OF THE GREAT
ADVANTAGES TO BE GAINED BY
THE COUNTY LOCAL OPTION
LAW IN INDIANA.

Forest, Ind, Sept. 15.-"Brutal and
unwonted" were terms employed by
Governor Hanly in an address here
last night in making reference to the
attack upon the ministry of the state
by Thomas R. Marshall, democratic
nominee for governor at Tcrre Haute
last Wednesday.
Taking up another utterance Of Mr..
Marshall's that he would not say
whether he would sign county local
option bill until it was presented to
him, Governor Hanly said the demo-
cratic nominee was not a man to be
trusted. He said:
THE man who seeks the Office of
governor of this great state and who
refuses to tell the people what he will
do concerning the important public is
sue before him in the campaign where
he seeks election, until after he holds
your commission and is in Office, is not
a safe guardian of the principle in
yolved in that issue. Those who real
ly care for that principle and are con-
serned about it's fate ought not to
trust him.
Governor Hanly made a strong ad-
dress in favor of county local option.
lie declared the township and city
ward unit is too small, so ineffective
that progress under it is slow and toll
some and beset by many difficulties.
He declared that this had led the liq-
uor interests of the state to it's sup
port as against county local option,
which they seek to defeat at any cost.
Do Not Become Republicans.
In supporting county local option
Governor Hanly declared the minis
tiers of the state do not become neces-
sarily republicans. If for the time
being they are fighting side by side
with the republican party it is because
the republican party is fighting in a
cause in which they have long been
enlisted.
Governor Hanly sopke at Burlington
yesterday afternoon, his address fol-
lowing the lines of that delivered at
Muncie He arrived at Frankfort
from Lafayette at noon. AS there is no
railroad connection with Burlington
he had to resort to carriage to be
taken there. He was accompanied by
several of the leaders of the party in
Frankfort and was greeted by a large
crowd. The temperance people pre-.
dominate strongly in this section OF
and Clinton-and his every utterance
in reference to his effort to have the
county unit option plank rassed was
cheered wildly.

SCHOOL BLOWN UP.

Mooresville, Ind, Sept. 1.-THE
Fairfield school house near the line
of Hendricks and Marion county, was
blown up last evening by dynamite.
The building was demolished and there
remains little to mark its former To-
cation. 1t is said there has existed for
some time a feud between the resi-
dents of the Fairfield neighborhood
and those of Friendswood. The two
communities are not far apart.
Both the Fairfield and the Friends
wood schools had been condemned,
but it lis said that the citizens had de-
cided to use one of the buildings I'M
til the law could be fulfilled. The quar-
rel arose over which school should be
used.

for this that six Japanese were SEN

The fight occurred because the
