Legislators Show Gallantry: Anti-Big Hat Bill is Killed
Springfield, 111., May 22. Members of the - lower house of the Illinois general assembly displayed their chivalry when by a tremendous vote they sacrificed their manly comfort for the delight that woman takes in fashion's fads and defeated the measure intended to sound the death knell of the "bushel basket" liat. Minority Leader L. O. Browne made the leading argument in favor of the bill. The independence of man was put forward as a reason why the bill should pass. Browne told the house that a member had just informed him that he would like to vote for the bill, but that he could not and go home. As the roll call proceeded and mem AGED PAIR WEDDED Groom, Aged 58 Years, Takes A Blushing Bride of 68 Years. MARRIED AT COURT HOUSE Married life is bliss, according to an old saying, and such must have been the thoughts of John W. Gruell, aged 58, and Mrs. Rachel Fetherling, aged 68, both of Dublin, as hand in hand they gazed into the future. This may have been the reason, at any rats, why Cupid's arrows went true to the mark, because today the two were married by Squire Abbott at the office of County Clerk Harry E. Penny, court house. Just like two "young things" the aged couple were oblivious to ev erything and everybody, except themselves. The marriage certificate, which the state prepares in variegated color and sells to those who want them for the purpose of framing, was purchased, but forgotten after the ceremony, as the couple left the office arm in arm. Mr, Gruell has been married twice now. This is the third venture for Mrs. Gruell. JUDGMENT IS GIVEN Judgment for $(123.49 was granted by the court today against Edwin M. Campfield, for supplies furnished him by Theron I. Crane of Philadelphia. The debt was incurred while Campfield was building the Southern Indiana hospital. Ne Wender Jim Went. An excited middle aged lady bounced interne local police station the other day and accosted the officer on duty. "Where's my Jim?" she demanded. ' "Beg pardon, madam dog. I presume? said the ofDcer.

bers voted in the negative, there were calls of "There is another one of them who couldn't go home." In explaining his vote O'Toole said, "I vote no; I want to go home." R. E. Wilson said, "I have no home; I vote yea." Representative Galligan raised a big laugh when he said, "Representative Browne told yow that he sat in a box and could not see through the big bats. I sit in the gallery with the boys, where there are no big hats." Browne replied to this sally with the remark, "It was not necessary for the gentleman to give ns the information that he sat in the gallery; we all know it." SMALLPOX NOW HAS ABOUTJUfl COURSE At Present Only Six Cases Are In the City. The smallpox epidemic has been re duced almost to a minimum in this city, according . to Sanitary Officer George Young. There are but six cases in the city at the present time Three patients were released today, while but one new case, that of Mrs. Frank Ralston, colored. North Sixteenth street, was reported. Those released were: Child of Mr. and Mrs. Abraham Schaefer. 103 South Second street; child of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Miller, 1229 Hunt street and Percy Griffin, colored, who was rooming with Mr. and Mrs. Joe McElroy, 413 South Ninth street. The Word "Person." General Benjamin t". Butler, it is said, once asserted that a woman was not a "person," and a London suffragette insists that the word "person" in Its leml sense includes woman. The word has had an interesting history. Signifying by etymology something to make a sound through, the Latin "persona" began by meaning an actor's mask with Its mouthpiece. Then it meant the character represented by the player "dramatis personae." Then it came to mean the part or character one sustains in real life, and so the "persona ecclesiae," the man who represented the church, became known as a "person" In a special sense and was eventually spelled as "parson. On the other hand, "person" faded away to mean Just anybody. . And so. though a woman naturally resents be ing referred to as a "person" In ordinary talk, many women no less nat orally desire to count as "persons" In the eye of the franchise law. Chicago News. Bishop Butter's Generosity. So many examples of episcopal cupidity have been cited of late that the average reader may bo excused for believing the bishop of a century or so ago to have been an Incarnation of greed. Bat against the Luxmores, the Watsons and the Porteouses may be set the saintly Butler, whose "Analo gy" is still used as a text book for clerical examinations. Butler kept open bouse at Durham, where he dis pensed hospitality wtth a larish band. On one occasion a man called at the palace soliciting .a subeerlnUon for some charitable object. "How much money Is there in the boose?" asked Bntler of his secretary. The secretary after investigation replied that there was 500. -Give It to bins, then, replied the philosopher bishop, "for It to a shame that a bishop should have so much." London Chronicle.

DON JUAN AMATEUR talian Husband of Tom John son's Daughter Views Americans. ELINOR GLYN IS DENIED New York, May 22. Do you play the game of love? If you do and, according to Mr. Frederico Marlani, who has written a play on the subject, nearly every one does you will be interested in learn lng what an expert has to say about it Mr. Marian! has played the game himself, though on the only occasion wnen there was an official scorer he lost which is to say ' that having mar ried Miss Elizabeth Johnson, daughter or rem u- jonnson, mayor or weveiano " cneymoon, called for a new deal and went back to her father. The mystery of this amazing mar riage has never been explained, and Mr. Marlani says there is no clew to the solution in his play "Tho Game of Love." But the play does embody the rules of the greatest game in the world. . and the playwright does not deny that he hopes it will become the official guide to followers of the game.

Military School Eaereiese Include Kane to Hand Cofrfliots. In the Japanese military school, where I saw a Spartan system of edu cation, the exercises of the cadets with pikes, rifles and broadswords were not approached by anything of the kind that I had witnessed in Europe. It was fighting of the fiercest character. At the end of the straggle there was a hand to hand combat, which lasted until tho victors stood triumphant over the bodies of tho vanquished and tore off their masks. -In those exercises, which were very severe, tho cadets struck one another fiercely and with wild cries, but the moment a prearranged signal was gr en or the fight came to an end the combatants drew themselves up In a line, and their faces assumed an ex presskm of wooden composure. In all tho pablic schools prominence was. given to military exercises, and the scholars took part in them with enthusiasm. , Even la their walks they practiced running den, unexpected attacks. xne nistory or japan was every where made a means of strengthening the papOs rtrkKism and their belief in Japan's favtnribfBty.

i Court Rules Races Do Not Suffer Equally by False Arrest. iu. A NEGRO'S BALM TRIMMED I JURY GIVES A PULLMAN CAR PORTER $2,500 DAMAGES BUT NEW YORK SUPREME JURIST SHAVES IT TO $300. New York, .May 22.- A negro and a white man do not suffer equal humiliation for falsa arrest in the eyes of the law. according to the Appellate division of the Supremo court, 'which sustained an order of Justice Dugro of the Supreme court reducing the amount of damages awarded George Griffin, a Pullman porter, from 12.500 to $300. The negroiwas arrested in Montreal charged with stealing a pocketbood. 1 but the charge was not substantiated and he was released. He brought suit for false arrest against Daniel H. Brady, a New York manufacturer, who had caused his arrest. Thought $2,500 Was Too Much. Griffin asked for $10,000 damages. When the suit was tried before Justice Dugro last November the justice decided that the verdict of $2,500 re turned by the jury was excessive snd should be set aside unlessthe plaintiff stipulated that the verdict-be reduced to $300. Counsel for Griffin would not consent to the reduction. The records In the case which went before the Appellate division disclose interesting remarks to the jury by Justice Dugro. among which were the following: "I regret, gentlemen, that your ver dict is so large, for I mast set It aside. No such verdict would stand. This man was earning! less than a dollar a day. according to his own state ment; his loss of wages was, there fore, only $2 or $3. and then the humlliaUon Md nxlMy of mlnL Men Must Be consioerea. "He was a colored man. and while you have no right to weigh difference you must consider men. You caa not consider what I would take to have this happen to me. I would not take a million aouare-to nave mis nappen to me, but that is no reason why you should award a muiion. No such verdict aa $2,500 ever would stand for a moment in any court. He was a porter, and while he is just as good as the president' of the United States, and if he is Imprisoned wrongfully he should bo paid for it. it would be bad argument to say he is , t ,ft m&nr sense.

This combination is poor it it is not put on correctly, but there is nothing; poor in Ed Dunkhorst's acting, for Ed has been on the stage for several years and knows what it takes to make the publio laugh, Ed was at one time a prixe fighter of ability, and like all prise fighters, when he quit the ring, he got heavy. It is admitted that he is one of the biggest men ever seen in any kind of , a show, not barring the circuses. The Imperial Comedy Trio appears in a singing act, with, a whole lot of comedy thrown.
