queried the expounder of the holy writ.
The M. O. was busy nt the time , but ho
looked hit questioner squarely la tbo eye as
Uo readily answered ;
"Primarily , a girl * secondarily , a license. "
The preacher timidly inquired if that was

The agitation of n C cent rate on morning
and evening worldngmcn's trains on the
oluctrio motor line still continues , but the
adoption of such a rate is not forthcoming ,
and the prospects are not particularly brill
iant Mr. J. T. Stewart , president of the
com pan v , was yesterday Interviewed regardIng -
Ing the matter , and hm statement of the
situation Is not encouraging. Said ho :
"Thero are n number of us who would llko
to have the clan adopted if wo could bo sure
how it would alToot us. The national inter
state commission might dccitlo the matter in
such n way that It would greatly Injure us ,
'nnd wo must bo assured that our interests
will not suffer. There is no money to bo
made , that is , but very little , on n straight
G cent rato. If wo wcro to operate the line
on such n basis no dividends would bo ao-
clnrcd , and there would bo nothing with
which to crcuto a sinking fund. I don't say
that the company would actually lose money ,
but the line would not pay. So , If the inter
state commission insisted on a straight
5-ccut rate , because wo maOo that
rate to accommodate the worklng-
mnn , wo would bo in an unpleasant and un
profitable situation , nnd we must bo careful
that wo do not pot there. Possibly the com
mission would not interfere with us , but that
la what we have to lind out. Wo are really
nothing lint n street car coinianystilt | wo op
erate between two states. The matter is In
the hands'of our attorneys , anil wo shall rely -
ly upon their opinion in the matter. Wo are
as anxious n < > any ono to know how It is to
terminate , as wo want to tell the public as
soon as possible that wo will make iho desired -
sired rate , or that it will bo absolutely im
possible for us ( o do so.
"Our paying trnlus now are those running
during the evening. If wo should adopt the
live-cent rate it would bo on very early
trains , and for a half or three-quarters of an
hours between G and 7 o'clock In the even
ing. It very easy , of course , for any nnd
every ono to point out the advisability of the
move , but wo must look after our own in
to rests.
"Extensions ! Well , we will build as fast
a } wo can , but it begins to look as If wo had
about as much laid out for this season as wo
could anndlo. Wo expected to have the
Upper Broadway and Falrmount park
lines completed before now , but
the Johnstown disaster delayed us greatly.
Wo received word from there , ton days after
the flood , that our material would bo shipped
in ten days more , but it has not arrived , and
there is no telling when it will get hero. Wo
can lav the rails , but the line can not be op
erated until the curves and switches are in
place. Yes , that little difficulty on Pierce
may bo the means of keeping us oft th.it
street. It Is not necessary for us to run over
that street , as wo cm ; double track the Upper
Broadway line without Inconvenience , and
it would accommodate all of our patrons
nearly as well. About all there is to it , it
would give our Onmhr. passengers a little
longer ride for their money. The only trouble
secmo to bo that the other company , to which
a franchise was granted some weeks ago ,
promised to pay for u right of way along
there , and the property owners want us to
come down qulto Handsomely. This we will
not do. Sooner than contest the matter and
make a light , wo will rrmain on Broadway. ,
This other company 1 I don't believe it will
over amount to much. In my opinion , the
whole thing was simply a move on the part
of a few real estate dealers and property
owners in the southern and western part of
the city to induce us to extend our line
through those localities at once for the pur-
nose of heading off imaginary competition.
This would aid them vcr.y materially in sell
ing lots in outlying additions. As far as the
Union Pacillo wagon bridge is concerned , I
have no apprehensions of its being leased tea
a rival company. It is quito probable that it
will bo utilized some tlmo for electric motor
purposes , and it would pcrnaps bo better to
use it in connection with a Ninth avenue * line
than to run up across the botton to the other
bridge.
"In view of what has transpired , however ,
it seems to mo that the Union Pacific com
pany might bo expected to give us the first
choice of It. wo took their street car line
here oft their hands , when it was costing
them from $5,000 to J15.000 a year to run it ,
and it would bo nolning more than the proper
thing for them to corno to us when they have
an offer for the bridge , and see if .wo are
willing to do any hotter. It might come in
very nicely , now that the lines on the other
side are extended all over the city.
"Wo hud intended to build a line down
Sixth a Venn o thin year , from Maine to Six
teenth street , thence up the transfer street
car line to the motor track on Avenue A. If
our material gets along wo may yet be able
to tlnish it. Tills calls for the equipment of
the Pearl and Mam struct line with electric
cars , which will bo done this ttonson. The
report of a proposed line up Main street ,
from the Junction to Broadway , is without
foundation , as the street Is too narrow and
teams loading and unloading at the business
houses would causa n blockade. The line
will be double tracked down Pearl and Mam
streets with a loop line around Sixth avcnuo
and Sixteenth street No , wo can't build to
Mannw.i this year. After wo get our line
extended around the city we will prooably
tulto a shSot down to the lake , but not at
present. Wo have as much on hand as wo
can attend to for the season , and it will keep
ua busy to get our proposed lines all in shape.

The case of Charles Allen , charged with
keeping liquor for sale contrary to law , was
tried yesterday In 'Squiro Hendrlcks' court
before a jury. The information was filed
before 'Squlro Barnett , but the defendant
took a change of venue. A. S. HazoUon ,
Esq. , appeared for the prosecution , and
Frame Trimble looked after the defense.
Trimble moved to dismiss the case on the
ground that the information was not explicit
enough regarding the kind and quantify of
liquor kept by the defendant , but the court
overruled It. Several witnesses were exam
ined on both slues * The Jury was out but a
short tiuio when a verdict of guilty was re
turned , and the defendant was sentenced to
fifteen days In the county Jail. This is the
first case tried on this charge in some time ,
but it is understood that the temperance al
liance will shortly fllo a number of similar
Informations and prosecute other cases of a
similar nature iu the justice courts. -

A most pleasing recital was given ut the
Presbyterian church last evening to tbo
representatives of the press nnd a few
friends , by Prof. Josot Heine , tho'world re
nowned violin virtuoso , Mme. Heine , the ao
oompllshod pianUt , aud Miss Evelyn Heine ,
tbo charming young vocalist. The pro
gramme was impromptu , nnd consisted of a
number of selections that were rendered for
tbo purpose of demonstrating the ability of
the artists.
Notwithstanding the fact that it was such
a quiet ana altogether impromptu affair , an
hour and a half was passed most enjoyably
listening to the delightful muslo rendered by
this most talented trio. Prof. Hulno not
only showed 1m mastership of the violin ,
but evoked such music from n common penny
whlstlo as to win a most deserved encore , to
which ho kindly responded , 'His rapid triple
tonguelng H seldom excelled. Ho also
proved himself a clover Improvisnrlo , playing
readily several pretty strains from n cue of
thrco notes ,
The piano playing of Mme , Heine was
highly artistic , and she received great ap
plause. Ilor execution Is brilliant and her
instrumentation marvelous. She plays with
ft dinh that cnn not fall to bo appreciated.
Miss Evelyn Ilolno. while suffering from n
sovcro cold , showed to great advantage the
range of which her excellent voice Is capa
ble. She gave several selections , but the
old Scotch melody , "Coming Thro' the Hyo , "
was the ono In which her perfectly modulated
volco gave the most pleasing effects.
It Is under perfect control , ns clear and
strong as could bo desired. This family of
musical artists will give a concert In the
Presbyterian church Thursday evening under
the auspices of the young ladles of the
church. The younir Indies wish to rnlso
money to make the last payment on the piano
recently purchased by them , and this will bean
an opportunity both to help them nnd hear a
really first class concert It should bo liber
ally patronized.

Prohibition Attorneys.
The opinion expressed by a member of the
bar that the prohibitionists were moving to
drop Attorney Sims In favor of Attorney Haz-
elton , seems to have been caused by the fact
that Attorney Hazclton has been looking
after some saloon cases in the justice courts.
Thcso cases are entirely different from
these In which Attorney Sims Is Interested.
The latter has paid no attention to the jus
tice court cases. Attorney Hazclton , In
taking up some of these justice cases , is not
Interfering with the work being clone by Attorney
tornoy Sims , but is working In harmony
with him. The prohibitionists deny any in
tention of doing away with Sims , but say
they employ Hazclton to look after .another
line of cases entirely.

Insane nt times , so violent as to nec
essitate confinement in a cage. Such
is the terrible fnto of Samuel Arm
strong1 , who is eighty-two , and a former
prominent resident of this city , says a
Cincinnati dispatch to the St. Louis
Republic. For years ho bos been in
close retirement at Wapello.la.jtwhoro
relatives reside , and though possessed
of an estate valued at $260,000 , the uf-
llictod man has derived little or no ben

erty.Armstrong
Armstrong many years ago was a
prominent builder. Among his invest
ments was ono in sixty-six acres of land
in the northern portion of Ayondalo.
Ho owns property in Greenville , O. ,
worth $100,000 , and valuable property
in Columbia , this county. About twen
ty years ago Armstrong was driving
o-waya man who was stealing fruit from
the Avondale place when the follow
picked up a largo stone and , hurling it
him , struck him with great force on
the head. He was never himself
acain.
JlVmongliis delusions isa firm belief in
witches. Ho imagines these enter his
room through the keyholes and cracks in
the doors and ho has had the apertures
all stopped up. Ho also wears straps
around his ankles to keep the witches
from crawling up his trousers.
While in this condition of mind ho
foil into the hands of ono Fred Rehling
of Greenville , Ohio. Ho was in
duced by Rohling to convey
to him his valuable Avondale
property. Rohling. it is said , did not.
pay him a cent for the property. After
un extended litigation the conveyance
was iotaside. Armstrong's affairs then
came into the control of contain lawyers
of this city. Although Armstrong was
a resident of this city and had never re
sided in Greenville. A member of a
well-known legal firm of this city made
application to the probate court of
Darko county for the appointment of a
guardian for the insane man , and per
mission was asked to sell his Avondale
property. The court appointed James
Rcosu Greenville blacksmithguardian.
The court also decreed the sale of the
Avondale property. Under this decree
the property was sold about a year ago
to a syndicate headed by Robert
Mitchell , for $100,109.
Armstrong was never married. His
sister's children , who are his heirs , live
at Wapollo , la. They have begun in
quiries into the administration of the
estate.

How the Novfspnprra Oat Ilrports or
the Ijittlu Falls Kxeoutloii.
The newspapers of Minneapolis are a
little ahead of the Hon. Jay Smith , the
author of the now law respecting the
hanging of criminals , says a Minneapo
lis dispatch to the St. Louis Republic.
Ho was shocked at the stories that were
published just before and ut the time of
the hanging of the Barrett brothers in
this city. The legislature using then
in session and Mr , Smith a member
from Minneapolis , ho framed a law that
passed , forbidding newspapers to pub
lish more than bare announcements of
hangings.
The condemned man , under the now
law , is permitted to name three wit
nesses , who with the sheriff , deputy
sheriff , the coroner and a doctor , con
stitute the spectators at any legal hang
ing. Reporters are strictly barred ,
and the execution must occur between
midnight nnd sunribo on the day named
by the governor.
The law was put to a practical test at
l:45.o'clock : this morning , when Albert
BulDW was lumped by Sheriff Rasicott ,
of Little Falls , for the murder of Frame
Kick , of Royalton , ouo day last Octo
ber. "Only a bare , announcement , "
according to the exact words of the
law , was expected , hut the buro
announcement filled from a two to
three columns of the city papers. The
John Jay Smith law failed to talco cog
nizance of the fact that the pine board
fence surrounding u jail inoloaure
might cosily bo pierced by augers aud
that n good oy8 * 6h n well measured
