Queen Elizabeth was fond of cards,
but she was inclined to be somewhat

from Saturday to Monday. and sac.

do so. Queen Ann of Austria was

Pit Brow Lassies.

How difficult 1t is to make laws to
suit everybody is illustrated again in
the tale which comes from England
about the lassies of Lancashire. The
poor slaves! They spend their young
lives pushing heavy coal tubs to the
pit brows of the mines. No decent
civilization would permit Its women to
be SO injured! So the philanthropists
argued, and straightway a bill was
passed forbidding the employment Of
women at the pit brows. But were
the beneficiaries grateful? Not at all
They protested. A deputation Of them

Richmond, Va, Nov. 23.-As bru
tai and cowardly as Beattie's crime
was, the shooting down OF his wife
whom he lured away from her home
on the pretense of a motor ride some
respect is held for the dead man. from
the manner of his confession. He ar
ranged it so that his faithful old
father could not learn OF his guilt un-
til after he had gone.
He confessed to Rev. Benjamin
Dennis, on Noy. 8, more than two
weeks ago, but requested that the
Clergyman keep secret his admission
of guilt from his white haired parent
and when he dictated and signed his
public statement yesterday, said,
s'Don't tell dad about it now, keep IT
from him until after l am dead, then
show it to him and tell him will meet
him in Heaven. for believe l am
going there, and I know he is. He is
already saint if ever human be-
ing was" And SO, mingled with the
sentiment of relief that the whole
sensational business is over, there is
tonight throughout Virginia a spark
of admiration for the chief figure IN
the tragedy. He not only did this
commendable thing, but he went to
the chair in a manner that the relig-
ious of the community may call sancti-
fed. and the worldly may call, "game. u
He satisfied everyone.
Beattie was aroused from a
fitful asleep at $50 this morning. He
seemed to realize as soon as he arose
that he was facing his last hour, for
there was a peculiar gentleness in the
voice with which he greeted his guards
