THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1892.

and county committees have prepared statements throwing all the blame on clerk Hussey. Rosenthal said here in an interview to-day that Hussey was his personal enemy, and he did not believe the State or County committees had anything to do with the matter. Public sentiment throughout has been aroused to such an extent that numerous Republican politicians have come out in interviews declaring against counting out any Populites who have been really elected. Chicago In Control of Democrats Now. Chicago, Dec. 5. The court-house in this city presented an unusual scene to-day. As a result of the land-slide every outgoing republican was succeeded by a Democrat. The six judges of the Superior Court and the two judges of the Circuit Court who took their seats are all Democrats. The coroner, the recorder, the clerk of the Circuit Court and the clerk of the Superior Court are all of the same party. The new Board of County Commissioners is composed of ten Democrats and five Republicans. These five commissioners, the sheriff and the county clerk are the only Republican county officials left in power. There was no election this year for the two last-named officers. The inauguration of the new judges attracted much attention.

TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. Mr. Arthur Wiullmeau began a fifty-day fast yesterday at Cleveland under the auspices of the Western Reserve Medical University. Eddie Coleman, a lad of six years, who was bitten by a terrier dog Oct. 22, died of hydrophobia at Jersey City, N. J., Sunday night. John Merrier, aged eighteen, whose parents reside at Mahomet, Ill, committed suicide yesterday by hanging himself in a barn. No cause is assigned for the act. The arguments in the writ of error in the case of Dr. T. Thatcher Graves, convicted of the murder of Mrs. Josephine Barnaby, began in the Supreme Court of Colorado yesterday. Hon. Idius L. Fielder, a leading lawyer and well-known Democratic politician in southern New Mexico, committed suicide by taking poison at Silver City yesterday. Drinking and domestic troubles is, given as the cause. It is supposed that the Rev. Samuel F. McCleary, the missing assistant pastor of the Church of the Savior, in Brookline, Mass., ended his life last Friday night by jumping into Long Island sound from one of the Fall River lines of steamers. Edward Gorman, a prize-fighter, formerly of Hamilton, Ont., is in custody at Columbus, O., charged with having set fire to his saloon there. Insurance, $1,500.

Although both parties to the controversy between the New York Central railway and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers are reticent regarding the matter, it has leaked out that the differences were not settled at last Thursday's conference between the committee and Mr. Depew. Although the members of the committee gave it out at the conclusion of their interview that they were going to leave town at once they are still in this city. A member of the board of adjustment said today: We have submitted a new contract to Mr. Depew, and we are going to insist on an answer. The new contract which we have submitted involves no changes in rates or conditions, but refers rather to the presenting of grievances. I won't say the men will strike if their demands are not granted, but I will say that the men won't work unless the new contract is accepted. The Central will avoid a great deal of trouble by signing the contract we have submitted." Mr. Depew's private secretary said the answer would probably not be ready for several days. Obituary. Pittsburg, Dec 5. Joseph Walton, the millionaire coal operator, died suddenly of apoplexy this morning at his home in Allegheny.

The body of a beautiful young woman was found late this afternoon in East Chester creek, near Webber's Hotel, on the outskirts of this city. The coroner was notified, and. when the body was removed from the creek, it was found that a rope was attached to the woman's waist, and at the end of the rope there were two stones weighing, toether, about twenty-five pounds. The coroner has ordered an autopsy to be held. It was the coroner's opinion that the body had been in the water about thirty-six hours.

She was elegantly dressed. In the pocket of her dress was part of an envelope, addressed "Miss Lulu Newton, care G. Newton, 185 Tenth avenue. New York city." Wife-Poisoner Harris's Appeal. Albany, N. Y., Dec. 5. The appeal of Carlyle W. Harris. who was sentenced to death for murdering his wife by opium poisoning, comes up in the Court of Appeals to-morrow. William F. Howe, who will appear for Harris, said to-night that one of the new points which he will present to the court is the death of a son of General Faulkner, at Bellevue Hospital, on Friday, from opium poisoning. He says the symptoms of happiness displayed by Faulkner just previous to his death, which were occasioned by the use of opium, are similar to those which were shown to have been experienced by Mrs. Harris prior to her death, and that the latter's feelings were the result of her use of morphine. He thinks this is a strong proof that Harris's wife was addicted to the morphine habit, which eventually caused her death. Movements of Steamers. QUEENSTOWN, Dec 5.

The object of a fence should be not so much to confine your own animals as to keep them from trespassing on your neigh bor. The fewer the fences the lower the cost of farming, and, it may be safely added, the better the condition of the animals.

M. RIBOT FORMS A CABINET

The French Crisis at an End if the New Ministry Pleases the Deputies. Nearly All the Members of the Old Cabinet Retained - Scheme That Has Wormed Many Shillings from Britons, NEW FRENCH CABINET. M. Ribot Announces that He Has Succeeded In Selecting a Ministry. Paris, Dec. 5. President Carnot, at a conference with M. Ribot this afternoon, asked him to form a Cabinet. M. Ribot asked time to consider the matter. Tonight M. Ribot informed President Carnot that he has succeeded in forming a Cabinet, Politicians are conferring with M. Ribot this evening, and it is believed that the new government will be organized in time; to be gazetted Wednesday morning. The list regarded this evening as probable, if not reasonably certain, is as follows: M. Ribot, President of the Council and Minister of Foreign Affairs; M. Bourgeois, Minister of Justice; M. Loubet. Minister of the Interior; M. Sarrien. Minister of Commerce and Industry; M. Charles Dupuy, Minister of Instruc tion; M. Freycinet, Minister of War; M. Bourdeau. Minister of Naval Affairs; M. Bevello, Minister of Agriculture; M. Bouvier, Minister of Finance; M. Viette, Minister of Public Works. All except Dupuy and Sarrien were members of the Loubet Cabinet. While retaining his old portfolio as Minister of the Interior, Loubet would be succeeded in the premiership by Ribot, who also would retain his old portfolio, that of Minister of Foreign Aflairs. M. Viette, l. Bouyier, M. Bourdeau and M. Freycinet would have their old portfolios, while M. Bourgeois, in deference to the Panama canal sentiment, would be transferred from the Ministry of Public Instruction to the Ministry of Justice, thus replacing M. De Luns Montand, who would be dropped. Charles Dupuy, a new man, would take Bourgeois's old portfolio. M. Jules Roche would be dropped from the Ministry of Commerce to make room for Sarrien, also a new man. Sarrien is a lawyer, fifty-two years of age, in politics since 1871, and in 1885 Minister of Post and Telegraph Communication. At present he is member for Saone-et-Loire. Charles Dupuy, the other new man, is an instructor and general authority on educational subjects, forty-one years of age, in politics since 15. although having held several offices in his professional capacity. He is a member of Haute Loire. According to the Eclair. M. Dugue, a member of the Chamber of Deputies, admits that he received one of the Thierree checks for 25,000 francs, this being his share, due from Baron Reinach, in a guarantee syndicate in which M. Dugue, who incurred certain risks, was entitled to compensation if the operation of the syndicate was successful. While the Chamber of Deputies was discussing the Panama question today, a fearful shriek ran through the Chamber and the Deputies sprang to their feet and gazed in the direction from which the shriek had come. Deputy Dubreull was writhing in the convulsions of epilepsy. He was pawing with his hands and seemed to be foaming at the mouth. It was a fearful sight, and one that horrified the Deputies. The sitting was at once suspended and a score of the members ran to succor their unfortunate companion and remove him from the chamber. THE MONETARY CONFERENCE. America's Proposals Will Not Be Considered by the Special Committee. Brussels, Dec. 5. After listening to the details of the Tietjen proposal, the special committee of the monetary conference decided to defer the consideration of it until the next meeting. The American delegates asked the committee whether or not the committee was empowered to consider the proposals made by the representatives of the United States at the opening of the conference. The committee replied that the rules of procedure would not permit them to take up these proposals. The Tietjen proposal provides that an international union be formed to fix the relative value of gold and silver on the basis of the average price of silver in London during the formation of the union. The members of the union will be permitted to coin an unlimited amount of silver coins of the value of one dollar, which will have unlimited debt -paying power in the country where they are coined. The scheme provides for tbe appointment of a committee to watch the silver market. If the value of that metal falls 5 per cent, below the value fixed the committee will have the power to decide whether a fresh issue of silver coin is necessary. Every bank of issue will have the right to have a portion of its metallic reserve in coin of the union, without distinction, and, on six months' notice, can demand that the silver coins held in the bank's treasury be repaid in gold by the country whence the coin came. The next meeting is expected to be of unusual interest. Congressman James B. McCreary, one of the United states delegates, is expected to make an important statement with reference to the American programme and the probable future policy of his government, The possibility of the repeal of the Sherman act was much discussed among members of the conference to-day. The opinion was that it would be a serious blow unless accompanied by some other special legislation in support of silver. THE "MISSING WORD" CRAZE. New Gambling Scheme Which Has Caught the Shillings of Staid Britons. London, Dec, 5. Many of her Majesty's post offices have displayed signs this week reading: "No more shilling postal orders. All sold." This is the latest effect of the "missing word' craze which has seized Britain. One pool alone that the manager of Pearson's Weekly received during the week ending last Tuesday was more than 217.000 shillings, each accompanied by a guess as to the missing word in a phrase printed the week before. The sentence occurred at the end of a paragraph describing the practice of the Romans, who, when they invaded Britain, are said to have beaten their bare legs with nettles in order to neutralize the effect of the cold. The closing sentence was: "To our minds each rigorous treatment hardly seems______." The $54,000 in the pool was divided among the 270 individuals who sent in the word "enjoyable," each receiving the snug sum of $145 for one shilling risked. It looks like an easy trick, especially if one makes judicious use of a book of synonyms and sends in fifteen or twenty words with as many shillings. At all events the little game has captured John Bull's rapacious heart, and from Aberdeen to the Lizard the silver streams are pouring into London. The pool mentioned is but one of a dozen. The amount paid in for the current week will probably exceed 500,000 shillings or $125,100. Here is a great fad or folly almost unknown a month or six weeks ago suddenly developed into national importance, and. of all others, slow, conservative John Bull is the victim. With what superior scorn he would look on if France or America should be swept by such a mental contagion. Already public moralists have raised a loud protest, and the big London dailies, which print carefully-prepared race tips every day, have united in condemning the new craze on high moral grounds. Mr. Gladstone's government has been compelled to take paternal cognizance of the people's reckless scramble to get something for nothing. The Treasury has summoned one of the pool managers, the publisher of Pick-Me-Up, to answer in the Police Court on Monday for violation of the lotteries act. All publishers running word competitions will unite in the defense of the new craze. Their main rcliance is that competitions are contest of skill, not of chance, and they quote high legal authority in their support. The country is breathlessly awaiting the issue. Mr. Asquith, Home Secretary, says that if the competitions are not pronounced ille-

gal under existing laws, he will ask Parliament for a special enactment prohibiting all prize competitions which are now the chief features of cheap weeklies. Where No Guilty Man Escapes. St. Petersburg, Dec 5. The trial by courtmartial of the persons concerned in the cholera riot in Saratoff, in July last, has ended. Twentythree of the prisoners were sentenced to be hanged, and fifty-six to be imprisoned in Siberia. Cable Notes. A report that Louis Kossuth, the Hungarian patriot, was dying is denied. The influenza has appeared at Hamburg, About twenty cases have been reported. The lunatics' wing of the poor-house at Lahamis, Finland, was burned yesterday, and seven of the inmates lost their lives. A severe storm is raging in Great Britain. Half a foot of snow covers the ground in South Wales and fifteen inches in north Scotland. The Shanghai correspondent of the London Times says tat there was a serious riot at Ichang last Friday. Sailors were landed from the navy vessels to quell it. No Europeans were injured. MANUAL TRAINING Suggestions as to the Most Effective Manner of Introducing It Into the Public Schools. To the Board of School Commissioners: I learn from the press that you are about ready to take action under the law authorizing you to introduce manual training into the public schools of this city, and that you have levied a tax for that purpose as authorized by law. In common with many others, I look upon this addition to our course of study as the most valuable that has been made in many years. My anxiety for the success of this addition to our schools is my excuse for wishing to discuss with you the details of the work you may attempt under the law. A careful reading of the law impresses me with the thought that this, new study is to be introduced in close connection with the schools as they now exist, but I am informed that some of the members of your board favor the concontration of all this kind of study into one building, to be called the "Manualtraining High-school," that building to be at some central point, but separate from any of the present high schools, and having a different course of study from them. The advantages of this policy, as they oocur to me, are the greater efficiency possible through concentration of effort in one direction. The disadvantages seem to be, first: One of location, which must necessarily be so far from some portions of the city that some pupils will be deprived of its benefits because of the distance; second, it is multiplying high-schools beyond reason; two high-schools are enough for this city for twenty-five years to come. Increase the usefulness of both of these in every way possible, but add no more at present; third. the course of study, being different from other high-schools, will deprive some of its benefits, because they would prefer to take some of its work in connection with the course of study in the other high-schools; fourth, the tendency of this separation will be to cultivate class distinction. This "Manual -Training High-school" will be considered by the public to be the school for mechanics and the children of mechanics, and the other high-schools will be for those wishing a classical education. The glory of our public schools is in the fact that they promote a feeling of equality, that among pupils respect is based on ability and acquirements alone. I trust that this multiplication of highschools and separation into classes will not be done. Let the work be arranged for each of the two high-schools we now have in the simplest manner possible. Let the necessary grounds be purchased and buildings erected at each school. These buildings need not be expensive. Then make this study elective, and give work in that line an equal value with work done in other subjects toward graduation, and you will have taken a long step toward popularizing mechanical pursuits. You will have treated all sections of the city with equal fairness, and you will have insured the success of manual training in the schools of Indianapolis. George Merritt. Indianapolis, Dee. 5. -

CALLING A HALT. How Many Women End Their Own Lives by Too Much Work. Harper's Bazar. "I cannot imagine why I am so tired all the time. It seems to me that I do very little." said a woman, dragging herself to a chair and sitting down wearily. "How many times a day do you go up and down stairs!" inquired a friend. The house was in a city, high and narrow, with four long stairways, three of which intervened between the kitchen and the mother's own room." "Why, not very often. I don't know. I have a good many errands about the house, here and there, and my impulse is usually to wait on myself. I suppose I spend a good deal of strength on the stairs, now that 1 think of it." "And, pardon the suggestion, but you are always looking out for others so much and so generously that others ought to look out for you; have you ever thought how often you are interrupted in the progress of a day! The ordering of the house is the first thing, but some trifle is forgotten, pepper or salt, flavor or seasoning, and you are consulted about that. Then your big boy comes to you with his necktie and cuffs, and your four-year-old has pinched his finger and needs comforting; your daughters have no end of affairs in which you must be the counselor, and your husband leaves the weight of his perplexities and the irritability that grows out of his overwork on your ever-ready strength. Dear, it is not wonderful that you are tired! The wonder is that you rest so soon, after a nap, or a little time by yourself, coming out to the family made over again." "But what can I do? All that you mention forms part of the every-day duty of a woman like myself, whose main work in the world is to keep her home happy and comfortable." "Once in a while yon might call a halt. You should pack a little bag, and run away for a three days' visit, leaving the housekeeping to the young shoulder, which will find it only a slight burden. It is an imperative duty occasionally to take care of one's capital, if one be a wife and a mother." In the interest of the rest, for the sake of the days that are coming, a matron must be provident of her own health, not suffering herself to drift into nervons prostration or wearisome invalidism. There are graves not a few over which the inscription might be written: "Here lies Mary -- the beloved wife of Theodore -- tired to death." And in most cases the blame is not Theodore's, but Mary's own. She should have called a halt in time. Would Not Allow Her to Be Neglected. Anderson (Ind) Times. At the dinner table at the Hotel Anderson the other day some ladies and gentlemen were relating incidents in regard to persons, and then one was told of Gov. Will Cumback. Some years ago the Rev. Williamson Terrel was preaching in the M. E. Church of which Cumback was a member. The preacher's theme was the "Love of Christ." To make the sermon impressive, he told that once he was at the bedside of a dying Christian who told his wife, just before he died, that "she must not expect him to pay her any attention for the first thousand years after they reached heaven, as he expected to spend all that time in gazing on the face of the blessed Savior." When the service was over, Cumback waited for the preacher at the door, and when he came out asked the name of the dying man and his wife, which was given, and he wrote it down. The preacher was curious to know why he asked it, and Cumback said "that it he reached heaven, as he hoped to do, he intended to show that woman some attention, as he thought it an outrage to have her standing around a thousand years entirely neglected." It is said that the preacher was careful to avoid all such illustrations afterward. It Has Not the Courage. Philadelphia Press. If the Democratic party does not approve the pension laws let it have the honesty and courage to revise them. But we have no hesitation in hazarding the prediction that the party will not have the courage of its convictions when it comes to this question. It is much more likely to add to the total expenditure by increasing the service pensions paid to ex-confederates who served in the Mexican and Indian wars!

BACK TO LIFE BY HER LOVER

Bride Falls Ill with Typhoid, Apparently Dies, and Is Then Resuscitated. Remarkable Recovery of Miss Julia Rieder, of Boonville -- Desperado Wyatt Goes to Oklahoma -- Muncie Strike Unsettled. A STARTLING EXPERIENCE. Mr. Peck, Shown to the Death-Chamber of His Fiancee, Finds Life Returning. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Evansville, Ind., Dec. 5. A sensational story comes from Boonville, which is regarded by many as nothing short of a miracle. It concerns a man of this city and a young woman of Boonville whom he is about to wed. Geo. W. Peck, of the police force here, is the man and a Boonville young woman, Miss Julia Rieder. Miss Rieder has been lying near death's door from typhoid fever. Throughout her illness Mr. Peck has been a frequent visitor at her home, and his presence always cheered the invalid. Friday night last Miss Rieder began to decline rapidly and Saturday Mr. Peck received a telegram announcing the death of his affianced. It came as a terrible blow. He set out at once and arrived in Boonville within an hour. With heavy heart he hastened to the Rieder home and was soon shown into the death-chamber. There he found his bride who was to be attired in burial garments and laid on a stretcher. The grief-stricken young man fell on his knees by the bier and seized the hand of his dead lady love. Instantly a peculiar sensation thrilled him. He detected an indefinable pressure of the cold finger, which was soon repeated in a manner not to be mistaken. At first startled, in a moment he realized that life was not extinct. Physicians were quickly summoned and all set to work applying strong restoratives until finally there was no doubt of returning life. An hour later Miss Rieder was disrobed of the shroud and back in bed again, able to converse with her lover and friends about her. Tear-bedimmed eyes were dried and joy succeeded gloom. Since then the young woman has continued to improve and it is believed she will recover. Mr. Peck has since remained at her bedside. Miss Rieder was evidently in a trance when her family believed her dead. WYATT GETS THE BEST OF IT. He Will Go to Oklahoma for Trial and Can Easily Secure Bail There Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Terre Haute, Ind., Dec 5. The contention between Sheriff Hixon, of Oklahoma Territory, and Sheriff Bonsall of Kansas, for the custody of Ellsworth Wyatt; the noted Western desperado, was settled at noon to-day by agreement of the attorneys for both parties. The prisoner was delivered to the Oklahoma sheriff. Sheriff Hixon had a requisition in which Wyatt was charged with assault with intent to kill. The Kansas charge is murder, and there is a Kansas reward of $1,200. Bonsall procured a requisition, from the Governor of Kansas, and detective Dwyer was dispatched to Indianapolis to have Governor Chase issue a warrant on it. As matters then stood the Governor had no authority to issue the second warrant, as Wyatt was under arrest on a warrant previously issued by Governor Chase on the requisition of the Governor of Oklahoma and was legally under the charge of the Oklahoma authorities. This morning Wyatt's attorneys agreed to dismiss the habeas corpus proceedings if the other side agreed to deliver the prisoner to the Oklahoma sheriff. This was the only course left for them to pursue, and Wyatt was then brought before Judge Taylor for identification and ordered delivered to Sheriff Hixon. Wyatt will be taken to Guthrie, O. T., to-night or to-morrow. This afternoon Sheriff Bonsall telegraphed to Governor Humphreys, of Kansas, asking him to communicate with the Governor of Oklahoma with a view to have Wyatt taken to Kansas from Oklahoma to stand trial for murder. Sheriff Bonsall is confident that this will be done, as the charge against him in Oklahoma is bailable in the sum of $500, which he could easily furnish. LONG STRIKE IN PROSPECT. Conference of Window-Glass Men and Employers at Muncie Comes to Naught. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Muncie, Ind., Dec. 5. - T. J. Eberhart, of Pittsburg, president of the Window-glass-workers' Union, arrived in this city to-day to assist in settling the difficulties at the Maring, Hart & Co. window-glass-works. Several councils have been held, and at tonight's meeting the manufacturers and workers failed to agree. Now what promises to be a long strike is on in earnest. Several blowers are leaving the city for other points, and no union men will be permitted to work in the factory. The men asked for the Jeannette (Pa.) factory scale while at work on the continuous tank, and were refused. The factory has just been greatly increased, and is one of the largest, the new tank alone having cost about $100,000, About three hundred hands are thrown out. The firm is not anxious, as it, with a majority of the glass manufacturers here, expect the protective tariff on glass to be lowered soon, and with it the high wages of the workers. FIGHT WITH A MADMAN. James Woods Saves His Life Only by Good Use of a Knife. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Greencastle, Ind., Dec 5. A serious cutting affray took place this evening in the locality known as Fox Ridge. William Rogers, a former inmate of the insane hospital, attacked James Woods with a stone, and would have killed him had not Woods defended himself with a knife. Rogers was cut in the throat, face and ear, but his wounds are not necessarily fatal. A brother of Rogers committed suicide in the same locality a year ago. Cigar-Makers Aroused. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Marion, Ind., Dec. 5. The cigar-makers of this and surrounding cities have concluded that they must do something to check the enormous sale of "scab" cigars. No. 159 of the Cigarmakers' Union of this city estimates that not less than forty thousand cigars are sold in this city every week that come from the penitentiary and Chinese shops. The Trades' Assembly has signified its intention of rendering all possible aid, and has suggested to the local Cigar-makers' Union to petition every union and K. of L. lodge in and around Marion to place a fine on their members that smoke cigars not made by union men. The blue union label is known to all, and is stamped on every box of union-made cigars. Some attention will also be given to those parties who deal in counterfeit labels. Betrayed by His Cellmate Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Jeffersonville, Ind., Dec. 5. - Harry Houston, a young but professional crook, is serving a three years' sentence in the Prison South for stealing $10, at Connersville. He occupied a cell with George Little. Early yesterday morning Little discovered his cellmate in the act of sawing the bars of the grated door. Where the saw came from is a mystery. Little warned Houston to stop, but he paid no attention and continued to ply the saw, when the former called the guard. Houston sprang upon his room-mate and gave him a terrible beating before the cell could be entered by the guards. The men were separated, and Houston locked in the dungeon.

Fort Wayne, Ind., Dec. 5. The natural-gas company this evening cut off all the manufactories from using gas until after cold weather has passed. This became necessary to give private consumers sufficient gas for heating purines. The gas company is now putting down large additional mains from the Montpelier field to the city, which will be completed in January, when it is expected to supply manufacturers again. Residence Burned. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Tipton, Ind., Dec. 5. The family residence of Lemuel Kirtley, fire miles northwest, was destroyed by fire yesterday. Cause unknown.

A mystery surrounds the blowing up of W. E Davis's steam laundry at Warsaw. At first it was laid on two Chinamen running an opposition "washee-washee," but now Mr. Davis himself is being connected with the affair. McPherson Post No. 7, G. A. R., of Crawfordsville, at a regular meeting Saturday night, by a vote of 20 to 10, voted down a resolution asking that the figures 1846-48 be taken from the soldiers' and sailors' monument at Indianapolis. Jackson Plummer, an old man at Kentland. who killed the town marshal for carrying out the Council order for trimming shade trees, has been sentenced to fifteen years in the penitentiary. In his case it is equivalent to a life punishment. Marion Lawson, the fifteen-year-old-son of Nathan Lawson, was killed yesterday morning, twelve miles north of Wabash, by the accidental discharge of his gun while out hunting. The entire load entered his groin. He lived several hours after the accident. The officers chosen for next year by McPherson Post, No. 7, O. A. K., Crawfordsville, are as follows: P. C, H. H. Talbot; S. V. C, H. Gilford: J. V. C. C. W. Elmore; surgeon, E. H. Cowan; chaplain, A. S. Holbrook; Q. M., L. A. Foote; O D., M. Y. Buck; O. G.. Q. M Ball. WON HIM WITH A SONG. An Opera Singer Who Has Practical Ideas About Music Which "Takes." Louisville Times. "Vocal teachers and impresarios may say what they like about young singers starting out with grand operas in their throats, but I know a better plan," said Jessie Bartlett Davis, the other day. "It's the song system. If I ran a conservatory 1 would tell the pupils who had ability and were anxious to begin a public career to get one song never mind what ballad, hymn, serenade, ditty, carol, cradle or topical song, and work at it until they could make of it all that the composer and author intended. "Take the girl, for instance, who wants a position in a church choir. What under the religious roof does the committee on music care for 'Marguerite' or 'Elsa?' Operatic efforts are wasted on them, if the applicant wants to win let her sing 'Go Bury Thy Sorrow,' 'There is a Green Hill Far Away' or 'Rock of Ages.' The possibilities of those three sweet old songs are only limited by the ability and soul of the singer. - "Move two hearts in a committee of three, get a couple of heads to bend, bring four or five eyes to tears and let the rest or the applicants do the mad scene in 'Sonnambula' and the 'Ave Maria' until they are black in the face or hoarse as crows. It's a good deal better to reach the human heart than high C, and the average churchman would rather listen to a familiar Sunday-school song that he used to sing when he was young and good than the grandest opera that ever was staged. "Managers of concert companies will not listen to jewel songs and operatic invocations. They haven't got time, and they wouldn't waste it if they bad. What they want, I think, is something, with touch and go in it. Scotch and English ballads are always good. No man is ever too busy or too tired to listen to a plantation melody, and eleven in every dozen surrender to the commonest street song if you begin at the right place. There's 'Teaching McFadden to Waltz,' for example, that will go every time, and 'Rock-a-bye, Rock-a-bye' - well, there's a baby and a woman in every man's heart, and three bars of that little lullaby that the whole country has hummed and whistled for half a dozen years will bring tears and smiles, according to your treatment." "And your song is?" "My song is 'Sweet Genevieve.' I can sing it better than anything else, and I love it better than everything else. It got me every good engagement I ever had. The first time I tried it was in a Chicago church committee-room. There was a vacancy in the choir that I wanted; I made application, and when the reverential deacon said he would like to hear me sing something, I didn't know what to do. I was trying to decide between a Gounod and a Bach solo when I caught sight of a locket banging from the good man's watch-chain. That settled it. I concluded that Genevieve's picture was inside, and I almost broke my heart resurrecting her vocal namesake. But I got the vacancy. "The next time? The next time I went to see Mr. Davis. He was manager of the Chicago Church Choir Company. I wanted more money than I was getting, and I applied for an engagement. I sang 'Sweet Genevieve' again and got the part of Little Buttercup. I frequently sang it by request, and Mr. Davis fell in love with the song and married the singer. "When the American Opera Company was getting into shape I went to see Mr. Theodore Thomas, and when he said he would like to hear something I knew how to sing. I gave him 'Sweet Genevieve.' " 'Well,' be said, 'any girl who can sing a love song like that can sing American opera,' and he engaged me. When I applied for a position in the Mapleson Grand Opera Company. Mr. Mapleson made an appointment for me to meet Mme. Patti and I (gave her S.G. She heard me through the whole song and applauded me by clapping my face between her hands. "Mr. Barnaby admitted me to my present position in the 'Robin Hood' company on the strength of the lamented Miss Geneivieve, and he pays me the mischievous compliment of getting out his handkerchief every time I sing it. But I shall sing 'Sweet Genevieve' till my voice cracks, and if there is any delay at the kingdom of heaven I shall try it on St. Peter." She Is Much Fought Over. Patrolmen Nichols and Wheeler last night arrested John Smith for assault and battery upon Frank Huey. Both men adore the same girl, a Miss Burris, waitress of the Farmers Hotel on Washington street, and the girl, it seems, entertains a preference for neither suitor. This rivalry on the part of the young men and the indifference on the part of the girl has frequently been the cause of fistic contests between the rival lovers. You've No Idea How nicely Hood's Sarsaparilla hits the needs of people who feel "all tired out" or "run down," from any cause. It seems to oil up the whole mechanism of the body so that all moves smoothly and work becomes delight.
