So Bfjidly in Iovo His Friends Fear Ills Mind is Affected. WASHING-ION , i'eb. 22. The filcnds of Senator Jones of Floilda aio > eiy much con- ceincd about his conduct and can only be lieve that ho must be out of Ids mind. Ho lias been In Detroit nowneaily three months. nt the principal hotel , doing nothing but piomcnadc the sheets upon which the young lady lives who has so lulatuated him , trying to catch a glimpse of her. Kvery itny ho sendshcr a letter declailng Ids Tovo lei her , and a laigc sl/cd bouquet. She never sees the Icttcis or tlio piesents. The most icmailcnbio feature of the case Is that Senator Jones has met her but twice. In the most casual manner. Ho de clared his love on the street at the second meeting in such an impassioned manner as toiilghlcn her almost out ot her wits , and she appealed for pi election to her lady com panions. who liui lied to their homes and dammed the door in the senator's lace. The next day ex-Jtaj or Thompson of Dctiolt , by whom Air. Jones had been intioduccd to the lady , called at the hotel to demand an ex planation ot his conduct , and became con vinced that the senator had lost his icason. Ho told Mr. Thompson of Ids adoiation and declined that ho would never leave Detroit without taking his cousin as n bride. Ho seems sin- ceic In his intention. The Indv In the case is a .Miss Palm , the daughter ot a French Ca nadian , who was one ot the eaily settlers of Dctiolt. and made an iaimense foitimo by piudcnt investments In city pioperty and pine timber lands. .Miss 1'alm is neither very \oung 1101 very boautitul , but will un doubtedly inherit 62,030,000 at the death of hei fattier.

I 1 About tlio tinio Ualdwin { ? ot into his Perkins trouble the advertising agent of tlio Appeal eallod upon him at the Tallao house.

Mr. Ualdwin refused to give more than ? 5 , and thus negotiations were discontin ued and the adveitiFoment not accepted In a few days the old follow went down to Los Angeles and oJl'orcd this woman ? 'JO for a ki.ss. Meanwhile , his business was neglected at the hotel , and it was not known by reason of an in- snlliciency of advertising , and sick of the business , ho leased il to another party. There is no doubt that Mr. liuldwin has paid out a gicat many $ , ' 0j for kisses , and ho spent the Kinno amount in advertising the merits of his business and hedged on the rosy lips of the g'u Is , his hotel would have been a household \voul wherever the English language is spoken. gijWo do not claim that a man 'must ( -.chow the fair se'c entirely and stop ki = sing pretty girls.
