Flagging Crossing Matter Continued

Oases against the Southern railway

flag the Washington street crossing
on Broad were set for trial in Recor

count of the absence of Mr. Boykin

Mr. Wright is at present sick and

First Jewelry Store.
(From the Boston Herald.)
It may interest women to know that
Ihc first Jewelry store was started in
the city of Cl.ang On about 3,000 years
ago. The Celestial Vanderbilts and
Astors of that period knew nothing
of the fascination of diamonds, be
cause diamonds were not in vogue at
that B. C, period.
Pearls and jade and coral and other
unpolished mineral substances had to
content them, and as if to make good
the glitter of rivieres and tier as, the
Princesses of Chang On employed ar
tisans to fashion them the most won
derful gold and silver ornaments,
which in themselves were far more
costly than diamonds.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
To the Public.
On the first of January. I became
general manager of the Georgia In
dustrial Home. I realize that. I have
assumed a tremendous responsibility.
But 1 have taken, tip the work with
great faith. To use the language of
the beloved founder, the late Dr. Mum
ford, “I pledge my time, talent and en
ergy” to this noble cause.
In the beginning of my administra
tion 1 find that we are facing a cris
is. The fall in the price of cotton Is
making it very difficult to raise mon
ey and unless our friends rally to our
support wc will fall behind. But tjle
130 children now in the home, must
be fed and clothed and as far as pos
sible, educated. We cannot turn them
out upon the world. Nor can we re
ject the applications to take mere
which we arc constantly receiving
We cannot turn a deaf car to thq piti
ful cry of these homeless and help
less little ones, which comes to us
from all parts of Georgia. Thp home
has thrown its doors wide open and
stands ready to aid every destitute
child in the state.
It is well known that wc arc doing
a work lhat no other charily among
us does and a work that is indiHpcnsi
ble to the stale and to society. Most
of the children at tjie Georgia indus
trial Home arc not t>f the class caret!
for by other institutions.
I appeal to the citizens of Georgia
to come to our aid. Think of your own
children. How well eayed for and
how happy they are. How you love
them. Imagine them thrown upon the
mercy of the great big world. Imag
ine them left alone in the sloughs of
destruction to cry in vain for help.
But for the Georgia Industrial Home
that would be the plight of over a
hundred children in our state today.
Will not every man who loves human
ity respond to the best impulses of the
human heart and send us a contribu
tion for this sweetest and most splen
did charity in the south? You will
help a worthy cause and your money
will be judiciously used. While I con
sider every child worth saving at any
cost, 1 shall practice the strictest
economy in the work. I will issue a
financial statement semi-annually so
that the people can see how their
money has been spent.
All money should be sent to .1. R.

JHt AUGUST* HERALD, WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 1, 190 5
MRS. CODY SAYS BUFFALO BILL
SQUANDERED WEALTH ON WOMEN
CHEYENNE Wyo.. Feb. I.—Mrs.
Louisa Cody lias tiled in the Laramie
county court her amended answer to
the petition of Col. W. F. Cod.v tßuf
falo Hill) In his suit for a divorce,
Mrs. Cody denies the charge of her
husband that on December 2t>, 1900,
or at any other time, site a tempted to
poison him. and declares that during
the thirty-eight years site lived with
him as his wife she was ever a faith
ful. obedient and chaste wife; that
she nursed and cared for her husband
in numerous sicknesses; that while
Col. Cody provided well for herself
and children during the last years
that he lived with her. he did not pro
vide for them in the early part of hit?
married life; that during that early
period he was an army scout on small
salary, and that she assisted hint by
dressmaking.
When fortune came to him, she de
clares, he squandered much money in
gambling and carousing with disrepu
table people of both sexes. During
late years Col. Cody had given her
large sums of money, and these funds
she had Invested in property in and
around North Platte, tile said invest
ments being profliable ones, and that
she was holding the property and ac
cumulating a fortune for the joint use
of herself and Col. Cody In thCir old
age.
Forgave Him Many Times.
Mrs. Cody denies that Cod.v has
been a I rue and faithful husband, and
avers that he habitually consorted
with other women, but that she con
doned and torgave him numerous
times on condition and with the prom
ise that he would not repeat the of
fense.
Mrs. Cody names Miss Bessie Isbell
as a eo-respondent. She charges that
Buffalo Bill became enamored of Miss
Isbell in 1900; that the girl was then
etghten or nineteen years of age. and
that Cody has been living with her
since that time: that she travels with
him as a press agent for the Wild
West show, and that Cody never
charged her with attempting to poison
him until after he met this woman.
Mrs. Cody recites a specific Instance
in whirh Cod.v was untrue to her, it
being in 1901. at Sherman. Tex., when
Cody and Miss Isbell occupied the
same room together.
Mrs. Cody says that, in 1R93 Buffalo
Bill lived for months with a woman
in Chicago, and that when Mrs. Cody
went to Chicago and asked her hus
band to leave the woman the colonel
refused, much to her mortification.
The Czar’s Lost Opportunity.
It is a sad thing for any man, no
matter how humble, to fail to possess
the full courage of his convictions —
■it is a terrible thing when such a
■ charge can he truthfully brought
against such a mighty personage as
the czar of Russia.
Of all the comments made upon
the revolution threatening in the un
happy country of the czar, nothing Is
more marked than the generally ex
pressed regret that the man who
might have made himself famed for
all time as one of the greatest and
wisest men known to history lost his
matchless opportunity through coward
ice. or some other attribute that
should have been entirely foreign lo
the descendant oi Peter the (treat.
It is true that the strikes now as
sume far less threatening propor
tions than terrified the whole world
last week, and it may be true that the
attempt to turn the movement Into a
political revolt will never bo success
ful, but this has nothing to do with
the indisputable fact that great harm
has been done in a direction in which
there is no possible hope for a rem
edy.
Generally, when a man or a nation
loses an opportunity for a great good
or a great gain, there Is the consol
ing thought that, some time, some
where, the loss may be made good;
but, when a neglected chance such us
that which was given to and then
taken away from Czar Nicholas means
a blow to the faith of a whole nation,
then the matter Is Indeed hopeless.
Faith is a very vital matter under
all circumstances, whether it is the
faith in God which makes for righ
teous loving or the faith in the integ
rity of the man with whom one does
business; but it has no ..uman ex
pression lhat makes it a more vitul
thing than that phase of faith always
displayed by the Russians in the czar,
lovingly termed by them “The Little
Father.” Through all its vicissitudes
has Russia clung to this faith. He
has been, for generations past, re
garded as the direct representative l
of Heaven on earth —as Senator Bev
eridge puts it, “the annolnted of
Jehovah, a being all but sacred and
entitled to the moujlks' reverence in
much the same way as is the Master
Himself.” This has been graphically
iiluslrated by Gen. Francis V. Greene,
of the United States army, who In
describing the fervid religious ser
vices held Ity the Russian troops in
front of Pieona during the Turkish
war, painted the emperor as standing
bareheaded and unattended in the cen
ter of the thousand lighting men, and
then kneeling on the ground with his
head resting on the butt of his sword,
while the kneeling men follow his lead
in a solemn chant half obliterated by
the booming of the cannon. Gen.
Greene says; “Nothing eould give a
clearer perception of the relations be
tween the czar and bis men than this
strongly impressive scene. The Rus
sians have no fewer daily sins to an
swer for than other people, but the
feeling that binds the lower classes
to ihetr czar is one of purely religious
enthusiasm and veneration, and It.

shame and disgrace.
He Had Improper Guests.
Mrs. Cody denies the second cause
for uetion in that she at no time of
fered his guests indignities, as charg
ed by Cody; and declares that shb
never did offer the colonel such In
dignities as to render Ids life Intolera
ble; she never refused to entertain
guests of Cody’s and never said that
she hoped they would never eat .a
her house Hgaln. •
She admits, however, that site found
fault with Cod.v for the reason that
[many of the men and women that he
had as guests were not the proper
people for any self respecting man or
woman to entertain
Site denies that she ever refused to
sign papers with the colonel and
states that even now there is a mort
gage on her property for $2,500, which
was placed there to raise money for
Cody. _
Mrs.' Cody charges her husband
with being guilty of neglect, in that,
the acts with which he charges her -
with being guilty, if true at all, oc
curred four years ago. and that, ac
cording to the statutes of Nebraska,
he cannot now r bring suit on those
charges, and that the Wyoming law
sustains thal part of the Nebraska
law.
In closing Mrs. Cod.v admits that
Cody wired to her at the time of the
death of their daughter. Aria, to bury
the hatchet for the time, but she de
nies Cody’s sensational charges that 1
she denounced him over the dead
body of their daughter.
Attorney Rldgely, for Cody, and At
torney Wilcox, for Mrs. Cody, argued
at great, length on the proposition of
taking testimony in the esse.
Trial Expected Next Month.
Cody desires that taking testimony
begin immediately, hut Mrs. Cody,
owing to the serious illness of her
father, asks that the case he contin
ued indefinitely. In all probability
the tuking of testimony will begin
early in February and the actunl trial
of the case will bo held in Sheridan
about the last of February.
.fudge Scott fixed Feb. 14 as the day
inn which the taking of testimony in
the Cody divorce case will begin.
Col. Cody and a large number of wit
inesses will be here at that time, and
I it 1r expected that some highly sensa
tional matter will be heard.
Mrs. Cody and her witnesses will
also be on hand prepared to prme
Cody's relations with many women

finds no counterpart elsewhere in
these days.”
And in one moment all this enthus
iasm and veneration was given the
death blow!
We all know the slory of that
dreadful day when the populace went
to the czar for the redress of unendur
able wrongs, and when the cry to the
Little Father having been met with
a death dealing volley from his sol
dlers, the priest in the lead cried:
"There is no czar! Wc must now be
gin without him our struggle for na
tional freedom.”
All this would have been so much
more comprehensible if Nicholas were
as cruel as his grand dukes and pow
erful ministers, but he is not a tyrant
by nature, and he is said to positively
sympathize with the principles for
expressing which thousands of exiles
are eve»y year sent to Siberia. Vance
Thompson, In a recent article in “Sue
ccbs,” declares that the fact of Count
Leo Tolstoi, the most outspoken critic
of the czar and of the Russian empire,
being exenipt from punishment or im
prisonment is proof positive of a cer
tain sympathy by the czar for what
the great author preaches and lives,
lie tells us tnat Tolstoi owes his mi
raculous freedom not to state policy,
but to the czar—that Nicholas il,
whose reign runs over forty degrees
of latitude, and wiio is considered the
sole representative to his subjects of
God upon ean.., is hiirisi-lf a Tolstoist.
He says that, the czar is a kindly,
overworked, unhappy man; he writes
vague, melancholy verses, rides a bi
cycle, and lakes amateur photographs
■his amusements are few; Tolstoi's
books appealed to the Slavic mysti
cism in him. accorded with his dreamy
love of humanity, and woke in him
aspirations for peace on earth, and
the fulfillment of the early Christians’
dreams of fraternity and equality lit
love. He reads Tolstoi; he talks Tol
stoi —as Edward Vil reads the rac
ing guide and talks horses, and as
William II reads everything and talks
everything Between the czar, impris
oned in absolute sovereignty and the
free old man of Yasnala Polina, there
is a strange bond of sympathy, both
mental and spiritual.
H<- tilso recalls the fact that an
earlier*czar, Paul, had a similar feel
ing for Tolstoi, when he was
tle more than a lad. The young b<’o
N. Tolstoi was at Sevansopol, shut up
In the famous and terrible "Bastion
H.” To the general-in-chief of his ar
mies in the Crimea. Czar Paul wrote,
with his own hand: “Bear in mind
this voting officer. No disaster must
he allowed to happen to this young
man. who does so much honor to Rus
sia.” Yet in those days he had not
written much; but the Tolstois had
always been favorites of the crown—
from that, early ancestor wiio was a
boon companion of Peter the Great
down to his father and Leo N. Tolstoi
himself. Though they have never
met, his friendship for Tolstoi is al
most. a cult. Not. all his ministers,
and not the migmy band of archdukes
can change his mind in this* matter,
should they trare to do so; and that
che government, as distinct from the
czar, has its own reasons for leaving
Tolstoi all this “liberty which binds
him.”
If only, the czar had one-tenth part
of the grand independence of this man
