The Court Martial.

Boston, Feb. 4.--The opinion ex-
pressed by those familiar with court
martial proceedings is that Paymas-

found guilty. Mr., Auld has this opin-
ion for when reached over the tele-
phone last night and asked If he had
been notified that he was acquitted
he said mo-
'Fhat means conviction doesn't
it% he was asked
yes, guess it does" he answered
not feeling very badly, however, hav-
ing the satisfaction that the whole
story about his affair with DIR. f. s.
Cowles has become public.
If this is the case, it Is on one or
both of the first and third charges in
the complaint against him, namely,
conduct unbecomng an officer and
gentleman and maltreating civil

He has been cleared of all guilt
on the second charge of falsehood

ORIGINAL JUNGLE TOM"
Daniel Worcester Who Enjoys This
Title is at Soldiers Home.

Title is al soldiers Home.
Daniel Worcester, who is known
the country over as the original
Uncle Tom, has just been admitted
to the Soldiers Home in this town
from Roxbury, where he has lived for
some time. Mr.. Worcester joined
the first Uncle Toms Cabin" com
pany organized in Boston and played
the role of Uncle Tom for two years.
On this his claim of the original
Uncle Tom" is based and this honor
has been conceded to him for years,
despite the fact that many companies
were organized about the same time.
Mr. Worcester was born in War
rem, VT, 76 years ago. He entered
the theatrical business in Lowell,
Mass. in 1852 and was a success
from the tfirst, starring with the
Uncle Toms cabin company durins
the following year. He took parts
in many theatrical productions of
the day including other Uncle Toms
companies after leaving the original
play
At the outbreak of the Civil war he
enlisted in Company F. 9th Con
necticut regiment serving as lieuten
ant
After the war he toured this sec
tion of the country for number of
years with a show under his own
management and bearing his name
His plays became famous throughout
the state. 1t was his custom TO make
| Montpelier his headquarters during a
session of the legislature and have
a several weeks run in the capital
| city while the Solnos were in town.
He retired from the theatrical bust
ness over a quarter of century ago
| and has since spent most of his
time in Roxbury. Despite his age
he enjoys fair health and is active
about the home.
| Nearly all the members of the
original Uncle Toms Cabin company
are now dead. Among the actors
who took part in the production was
"Comical Brown" who later toured
this section and became famous as a
comedian. He died about 10 years
ago Among the survivors besides
Mr. Worcester is Prof Hutchins OF
the Stone museum in Boston.
