no one. Even the jailers who
have known her since she was

never known her to speak to

no one is about, she talks hurried

the chatter is hushed when she
hears footstep in the corridor.
The county records show that
no charges of lunacy. have ever
been made against French Ma

say, will probably remain so the

Who is French Marie?'

! VINO Is french MARIE.
Where did she come from?
Who are her people?
From what is she suffering
that has made her for four years
a puzzle to Houston physicians
These questions apply to a
nameless, friendless woman in
the county Jail. For want of
a better name or of her own
she has been dubbed French
Marie. F" And they are questions
that have been asked for four
years, time and time again, for
French Marie" has been a
county charge that long.
Four years ago this summer
the station master at the Grand
Central Station one night discov-
cred woman aimlessly wander
ing about the depot. All of his
attempts to find out who she was
or where she was going proved
futile. The police were called
and French Marie" was placed
in custody until investigation of
her case could be made.
No more successful have the
hundreds of questions asked her
during the four years been than
were those asked her on the
night of her discovery by the
station master at Central Station.
EVIDENTLY OF GOOD FAMILY
French Marie" was evidently
a woman in good circumstances
and evidently from a family of
refinement. Her clothing was
plain. but substantial, her car
rage and demeanor was that of
woman whose associates had
been refined people.
She looked at that time four
years ago as If she might have
Just started, or just completed, a
briet journey. Even the little
grip that she carried contained
extra clothing. plain but sub
stantial, and a few initiated toilet
articles. But there was nothing
in the grip or about the woman's
clothing that gave even a clue to
her identity.
For several days she was under
the attention of physicians. who
believed that within few days
her memory might return. and
that she woald be able to tell the
police who she was and where
she wanted to go. Intermittent
ly throughout the four years ply
sicians and specialists have ex-
amined her and placed her under
the tests given patients whose
nervous systems have become
disordered. No two physicians
have been able to agree.

theory that French Marie" had

appointed by the governor, a

The ballot this year will be ex-
tremely large. There will be
tickets from the democratic, re-
publican, progressive, prohibi-
ton and socialists parties and
owing to the number Of officers
to be elected and the fact that
twenty presidential electors are
to 90 upon the ballot, it would
be impossible for the ballot not
to be very long and wide also.
NO CALL FOR SENATORS
1t is interesting to note that
the governor does not call for
the election of State senators IN
the first and twenty-seventh
districts where there will be no
vacancies owing to the fact that
Horace Vaughn in the first dis
trict has been nominated for
congress and Earle Mayheld in
the twenty-seventh has been
nominated for railroad commits
sioner. These men did not see
fit to resign while making the
campaign for other office, being
follower senators. Senator
Vaughn does not now propose to
resign until March A, when he
takes the oath as congressman,
serving in the State senate un-
til that time. HoweS err, with
Senator Mayheld it is different.
He can hardly expect any service
in the senate since he will take
the oath as railroad commits /
sioner in January. A resigna- !
ton is expected from him earlier
and already there have been sew
eral announcements in his dis
trict for his position. Ii is pos
sible that his successor may be
elected in the November election.

SUFFRAGE LEAGUES GIFT
 TO MISS MARY JOHNSTON

The Equal Suffrage league of this city made tasteful recognition of the ser vices of Miss Mary Johnston to the cause of womans rights on her recent visit to Birmingham. A day or two ago they sent Miss Johnston a beautiful paper weight suggestive of her literary work and em- blematic of the cause of suffrage. It was a small gold cannon, a perfect replica of the big armament. This was mounted on heavy base of black onyx, which hinted at the coal fields of this locality. On gold tablet affixed to the onyx was engraved Miss Johnstons name, that of the Birmingham Suffrage league and the date of her visit to this city-April r. In- scribed on one wheel of the cannon were the opening words of the songs of Ovid ''Arma cum virumque cano;" on the other was the maxim of Stonewall Jackson. re- peated in Miss Johnston's recent book ''The Long Roll" Press forward"

forbids that we should understand the Master to teach that we should do any thing for another or assist him in any manner that would be really to his injury. This is expressed in the next statement: iAs ye would that men should do unto you, do ye also to them likewise"
 Very evidently our Lord was setting up , His teachings in contrast with the max inns of the Pharlsees, the holiness people Of that day To love another because he loved us, or to give to another In the hope that he would equally befriend us, would have nothing creditable in it.
 Jesus desciples are to do good for principles sake-to be in full accord with the Heavenly Father, to have His smile and approval. They are to take Him as their example and to remember that in proportion as they are godlike they show forth the spirit of sonship.
 Merciful To Obtain Mercy
 The world during Messiah's kingdom will be under instruction and lessons, which will include mercy, and an assurance to the willing and obedient of perfection by the close of the kingdom. But the church class, now called out, will have no such long period for their character devel- opnent, and since they will not attain that perfection here, but will require divine mercy, through the imputation of Christ's s merit to cover their blemishes, therefore, in order to develop His saints in gener- osty and forgiveness the Lord has agreed that He will be merciful to them in proportion as they will be merciful to others.
 What wondrous reward for faithful ness and what wondrous incentivel Our Lords prayer is in agreement with this:

 Love works no injury to it's neighbor love, therefore, is the fulfilling of tha feature of the divine law which applie to our duty toward our neighbor, to low him as ourself But love can do nor than this and in the case of Jesus it di more, for in love He surrendered Hi rights, privileges, etc., and died, the jus for the unjust, that He might bring us [ God.
