While the discussion on the tariff re

Prospective Investigations.
Leading Republican journals are maui
lesting considerable uneag|ness o\ er the
prospect that the Democrats, soon after
Congress meets, will begin an investiga
tion of some of the frauds and abuses of
which the Republican party has been
guilty within the last few years of its
control of the government. These journals
are already trying to discount the effect
of such an investigation. They allege
that the Republican press has fully and
freelv exposed all there is to expose, and
assert that there can be no fair investiga
tion which will not show that Democrats
were mixed up with every act of rascali
ty and wrong-doing. Statements and
threats of this character will not deter
the Democratic majority from doing what
thev deem to be their plain duty. They
know - and the people know that half has
not been told, and they are not at all un
easy over the possibility that a fes un
worthy Democrats may be discovered to
have been in bad company. The charge
that the whole purpose of the Democrats
is to manufacture political capital and
that, consequently, there will be no effort
at fairness, is not worth a moment’s con
si. teration. The investigation will be
in the interests of reform
and pure government. The develoji
ments, however, will furnish the
Democrat' with good campaign material,
because they will prove to the countrv
that the Republican party is too corrupt
to !*e longer trusted with the management
of national affairs. It will he interesting
to know how much of the money, which
I>orsey. Brady and others are alleged to
have stolen front the government by the
unlawful manipulation of the star routes,
was expended, with the full knowledge of
the Republican leaders, in carrying
Indiana in I**). It will be equally inter
esting to know exactly how Attorney
General Brewster spent the hundreds of
thousands of dollars in the star route
trials, which the records show he s|>ent.
The Treasury and Navy Depart
ments also offer subjects for
investigation. In fact, it is doubtful if
there is a department of the government
that does not need to lie thoroughly over
hauled. If Republican journals think
they can prevent the good work they will
find they are mistaken. The Democrats
have marked out their policy in tins mat
ter and they will pursue it to the end.
When the time comes it will be found that
Dorsey and Brady have not told all they
know. If they are as disused to talk
when Congress meets as they pretend to
be now they will make revelations which
will cover the Republican party with in
famy.
Hon. J. G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, has ap
peared but seldom in the public prints
since Congress adjourned. Being a can
didate for-peaker he has deemed it wise
to say as little for publication as possible.
His record is before the country, and it is
so clear that there is no occasion to ex
plain it. In Xew York, a day or
two ago, however, he consented to
a short interview, in which he
expressed the opinion that the prospects
of the success of the Democratic party in
I''4 have not lieen so good as they are
now since 1*56. He is confidi lat the
Democrats will carry Ohio this fall, and
that they will carry it by an increased
majority in I**4. The high tariff notions
and the tendency towards prohibitory
legislation of the Republican party have
alienated thousands of voters from that
party in the West. It will take the Re
publican party years. Mr. Carlisle thinks,
to secure the return of these voters, if. in
fact, it ever secures them.
The Xew York llcrald , speaking of the
trade dollar, says: “This robbery ot
the poor is going on daily, to
the extent of thousands of dol
lar'. in every town and city in the coun
try. There is but one way to check the
wrong. Let every trades union in the
country promptly instruct its members to
refuse hereafter the trade dollar as reso
lutely as they would refuse to submit to
any other wrong inflicted on them. Let
every merchant and retailer at the same
time do what the government and the
banks have already done in regard to it—
refuse to accept it—and this coin, which
bears a lie upon its face, w ill be driven
from sight, as it well deserves to lie." A
more practical contemjiorary suggests
that the tabooed coin lie dropped in the
contribution boxes.
People who complain of the heat in
Southern cities should transport them
selves in fancy to the tenement houses of
Xew York. The Xew York Tribune of
Friday remarks: ‘‘The effect of tene
ment houses on the death rate is shown
by the fact that TO per cent, of the deaths
in this city occur in the overcrowded dis
tricts. In one single block iuthe Eleventh
ward there are 52 tenement houses occu
pied by .Vs; families—in all 2,356 inmates.
There are several such blocks, w ith an
average of Too inhabitants to the acre. In
three years tenement houses have been
built to accommodate 100, <>00 persons.
Every once in a while some Washing
ton correspondent sends out anew story
about Guiteau. The latest is that when
Guiteau's hotly was taken to the Medical
Museum the skin was torn from the head
and face and stuffed with cotton so as to
preserve the exact outlines of the assas
sin's countenance. The eyeballs were
added, so that now Guiteau’s face can be
seen in all its ghastly ugliness, as it ap
peared in life. This story, like others
which have preceded it, is, to say the least
of It, rather thin.
The stalwart managers at the regular
session of the Pennsylvania Legislature
agreed to give the Democrats twenty of
the fifty members under the new appor
tionment, but when the extra sessioa met
it w as determined to allow the opposition
only nineteen Senators, the purpose evi
dently being to prevent any apportion
ment at all. But six Republican Senators
have refused to be ordered in this manner,
insisting that the Republican party should
not be placed in such a discreditable
l>osition.
The aggregate amount derived from the
three articles—spirits, tobacco and beer,
respectively, in the whole 20 years are:
From spirits. $970,800,000; from tobacco,
$628,000,000; from beer, $172,000,000; total.
$1,770,000,000. If all the proceeds of the
excise on these three articles had been
applied to the reduction of the public
debt, that debt to-day would be $477,000,-
000 less than it is; instead of being*l.2os,-
000,000, it would be only $728,000,000.
“I have Jot," says Governor Butler, j
“five different specimens of tanned skins |

had got to be a commerce. If this inves
tigation has cost *20,000,1 am satisfied if
I have accomplished nothing but the stop- j
gage of this new industry. The money is j

The people of Xew Orleans are debat- j
ing the question whether they will not
have to give up tneir Mardi Gras celebra

Cotton Exhibition a success. To aban

Momus and Rex will draw to the city al
most as many people as the exhibition.
BradstreeVs estimates the total wheat
crop at 443.364*,000 bushels, which is a
decrease of tgi.860.4T0 bushels as compared
w ith 1882. With a surplus from last year
about equal to the loss this year, however,
it is believed that the country will be
“quite as well prepared to supply its
domestic requirements besides meeting
the demand abroad.”
Joseph Chamberlain, the prominent
member of Parliament, is described as
about 35, almost beardless, with a promi
nent nose and the single eye glass of the
conventional English swell. He dresses

man. Disraeli was a popinjay in his
youth, but he was a statesman despite
his foibles.

The Lottery Decision.
The decision of the Postmaster General
denying the Louisiana’ Lottery Company
the use of the mails will no doubt have
a temporarily, if not a permanetly. damag
ing effect on the business of that institu
tion. The question whether the company
should be permitted to use the mails or
not did not come squarely is*fore the
Postmaster General. The point he was
called on to decide, and which he
did decide, was whether an order made by
Postmaster General Key suspending an
order, made by the same official, denying
the company the use of the mails, was still
In lorce. The suspensive order was made
during the pendency of an appeal of a
mandamus case against Judge Key in the
Supreme Court and was to remain in
force until the decision of the case. The
appeal was dismissed on motion of the
company, and as there had been no de
cision the company contended that
the suspensive order was still in force.
Postmaster General Gresham decided that
when the appeal was dismissed the sus
pensive order ceased to lie effeetri e, and
that the original order denying the mails
to the company was good and must be ex
ecuted. All the lottery companies, so far
as the mails are concerned, now stand on
an equal footing. The Louisiana com
pany w ill no doubt try to recover from the
Post Office Department the position it has
lost, but it is doubtful if it
will succeed. The disposition of
the Postmaster General appears to be
against lotteries. While in the Louisiana
case he was only called on to pass up >n a
legal point, it is probable that if the occa
sion arose he would not hesitate to refuse
to allow the mails to be used by lottery
companies. on grounds clearly set forth in
the statutes. The Louisiana company has
only itself to blame for the loss of the cov
eted privilege. It sought to enjoy the
privilege exclusively. It succeeded only
for a limited period.
The express companies w ill now per
haps do the business of the Louisiana
Lottery Company, as they have for some
time done that of other lottery companies.
The people will buy lottery tickets as long
as they are to be had.
The Republican papers are trying to
make the country believe that Senator
Beck’s interview on the tariff, published
a week am last Saturday, was arranged
and published alter a c<inference between a
half dozen or more of the Democratic
leaders, and that its purpose was to bol
ster up the waning political fortunes of
Carlisle and McDonald. Nothing is fur
ther trom the truth. The political for
tunes of neither of these candidates ace on
the wane. Carlisle is as strong to-day as
at any time since he became a candidate,
and, if the reports from the West are
to be credited, McDonald’s popularity is
increasing. The facts of the Beck inter
view are these: When Senators Morrill
and Sherman published their view s of the
new tariff law, in the shape of interviews,
Senator Beck, who led the opposition to
tiie law. was asked to reply to them. He
declined when the request was made for
want of time, but promised to comply on
some future occasion. Being in M ash
ington the latter part of June
he was reminded of his promise.
Having liotli the leisure and
the inclination he wrote out the interview
which has attracted so much attention.
It is extremely doubtful that the Senator
consulted anybody about it, and it is
pretty certain that he showed it to nobody
except the three or four correspondents
who handled it.
The Downing high license law of Mis
souri, which has been declared constitu
tional any applicable to St. Louis by the
Supreme Court of the State, affirms the
right of the State to prohibit the sale of
intoxicating liquors and to impose a ju ice
for granting individuals permission to do
that which it has the right to prohibit.
The jirice thus jiaid is not a tax in the
meaning of the statutes, but a license.
The law in question must be regarded as
a “police regulation established by the
Legislature lor the prevention of intem
perance, jiauperism and crime, and for
the abatement of nuisances.” With re
spect to St. Louis being included in its
provisions, the matter turning upon the
interpretation of the word ‘-county,” the
Revised Statutes, which went into effect
November. 1*79, are referred to. These
contain the clear statement that “when
ever the word county is used in any law
general in its character to the whole
State, the same shall lie construed to in
clude the city of St. Louis, unless such
construction be inconsistent with the evi
dent intent of such law or some law spe
cially applicable to such city.” It begins
to apjiear that high license will be jirc
ferred to prohibition, which experience
show s rarely prohibits.
A recent calculation about the con
sumers' cost of the spirits and beer used
annually in Illinois has led the St. Louis
Republican to a similar calculation for
the whole country. We know from the
I government statistics that there are about
| 170,000 retail liquor dealers in the coun
| try. If they have an income of about sls
a day the Republican finds that the total
is $930,730,000 annually. During the
last fiscal year taxes were paid on about
72.000.000 gallons of spirits and nearly
17,000,000 barrels of beer. A gallon of
spirits is said to make nearly a hundred
drinks, costing about lit cents each, thus
yielding about $720,000,000. The beer con
sumed is aliout 4,216,000,000 pints, which
at 5 cents a pint makes about $210,000,000.
Thus, in two different wavs, the conclu
sion is arrived at that the people of this
country pay annually for the beer and
whisky which they drink $930,000,000.
When Confederate bonds were being
freely purchased at rates ranging from
$5 to sls per thousand dollars there was a
great deal ot speculation as to what the
purchasers intended to do with the bonds.
The London Daily Metes is authority for
the statement that 5 number of the Eng
lish holders of the bonds have raised a
pool of $50,000 for the purjiose of inducing
some of the Southern States to recognize
a portion of the debt. It is highly im
probable that the desired recognition will
be secured.
The Minnesota Republican resolution
on the tariff reads: “We believe in main
taining a system of internal revenue lev
ied upon articles of luxury, such as whisky
and tobacco, together with a sys
tem of duties upoq imports, so applied as
to provide revenue for the necessary ex
penses of the government, and so adjusted
as to encourage the development of the
manufacturing and labor interests of the
whole country.”
This would imply that Minnesota Re
publicans susjiect that tiie industries of
the country are not confined to Pennsyl
vania.
Heri is what Bob Ingersoll says of
President Arthur:
“He will not lie nominated. People do not
like death to suggest to them their national
tickets, or their national tickets to sug
gest death. He was Vice President—a
vice which a party never forgives, in
these days. A Vice President is regarded
as children regard a step-mother— a de
vice to save an election—a something to
step a gap —-a lighter—a political ralt.
He holds the horse until another rider
is found.”

What a Great Country!
Prom Judge Foraker't Fourth of July Speech
in Ohio.
New York is rightfully termed an Em
pire State. Her area is almost equal to
that of all England, and yet she has just
47,000 square miles, while Georgia has
58,000, Nebraska 75,000, Kansas 81,000,
Minnesota 83,000, Oregon 95,000, Colorado
and Nevada each 104,000, Dakota 150,000,
California 188,000 and Texas 274,000 square
miles of area, the last alone large enough
to swallow up the whole State of New
York almost six times over.
All this domain is practically inhabita
ble, and as well adapted to the supjxirt of
a population as any country on the face
of the earth. But lor the whole of these
vast regions we have now only about 50,-
000,000 of people. This is scarcely more
than they have in Germany alone on an
area but little larger than that of Califor
nia. When we thus learn by comparison
the capabilities of our country for growth
and population, and undertake to com
pute what that growth means as regards
the development of our resources, the in
crease of our cities and the multiplication
oi railroads and other business enterprises
and industries, we at once see how un
likely it is to exaggerate the probabilities
of the future.

francs less than last year: those at two
francs amounted to 25,000 francs, which
was an increase of 800 francs- The bad
money received amounted to 000 francs.
Portland, Me,, has had another “yellow
day.’ The Press says: “Last evening a
natural phenomenon, similar to that
which constituted the yellow day of 1881,
was noticeable in some parts of the city.
Gas lights were a sulphurous yellow- in
color and the grass of lawns and the
foliage of trees were an unuatural green.
There are 152 national banks in the
State of Illinois. Of these, there are
eleven in Chicago, jiossessing a combined
capital of $7,550,000. The individual de
posits in Chicago banks exceed those of
all other banks throughout the State, and
the First National Bank has a larger
amount of money on dejiosit than any
other national bank in the United State’s
outside of New York city.
Laredo possesses a curiosity in the per
son of a blind Mexican, twenty-two years
of age, who lost his sight when one year
old by small-pox, which completely de
stroyed the pupils of both eyes, leaving
him totally blind. To-day he is used by
many who* know him as a messenger boy,
being able to go to most any house in the
citv without assistance, even of a walk
ing stick, and is recognized as one of the
best riders in town.
On the 30th of June there were $111,799,-
175 in standard dollars in the various
United States depositories and mints. Of
this amount $72,532,791 is represented by
outstanding silver certificates, leaving
actually on hand $40,000,000 in the way of
idle surplus of silver. Every vault at the
disposal of the Treasurer in Washington,
New York, Philadelphia and elsewhere is
full to overflowing with silver, having an
aggregate weight of 6,600,038 pounds.
There is no danger of the treasure being
carried off between days, or even a small
part of it, $1,000,000 weighing about thirty
tons.
The first organ ever brought to this
country is still in St. John's Chapel at
Portsmouth, N. H. It was imported by
Thomas Brattle, born in Boston in 1658,
from whom Brattle street and Brattle
square are named. He left the organ in
his will to Brattle Street Church, provided
that, within a year of his death, they “pro
cure a sober person who can play skill
fully thereon with a loud noise,”’other
wise to King’s Chapel. The Brattle
Street Church refused the gift, but King’s
Chapel accepted it, imported an organist
at £3O a year salary, used the organ until
1756, anil then sold it to St. John’s Church
in Portsmouh.
An old getleman living in a country
village went to visit a married daughter
in Springfield, Mass., and, his mental
faculties being impaired by age, he was
apt to get lost when he ventured to go
aliout the city, being unable to remember
the name of the street where his daughter
lived. The street was Walnut street, and
in order to enable him to remember It the
daughter gave him a walnut to carry in
his pocket, but on his first excursion
thereafter he got lost as usual. When
finally he returned his daughter somewhat
impatiently asked, “What have you in
vour pocket to remind you of the name of
the street?” “Ah,” exclaimed the aged
parent, “I forgot all about that shag
bark!”
Now and then the true goodness of
human nature is shown even in a street
car. The other day a- feeble old man,
neatelv dressed but evidently poor, en
tered a Third avenue surface car in New
York. When the conductor asked him
for his fare, the old man ielt in his pocket,
and a look of dismay came over his lace
when he discovered that he had no money.
He exjilained to the conductor that he
must have lost it, and begged to be al
lowed to ride, as he was very tired and
had some distance to go. The conductor,
however, was obdurate, and w-as on the
point of ejecting him, when a richly
dressed lady arose from her seat and
said: “If no one else will pay this old
man’s fare, I will,” And she did, while
the men in the car looked shame-faced
and hid themselves behind their news
papers.

LOS ANGELES.
Its Location. Buildings and People
Points About the Chinamen and Mex
icans of the Place —Orchards, Vine
yard a and Ranches.
From an Occasional Correspondent,
Los Angeles. Cal., July I.—To the
average reader, perhaps, it is not gener
ally known that the full name of this city
is, translated into English. “The City of
the Queen of the Angeles.’’
It is beautifully situated in a valley at
the foot of the San Bernardino range of
mountains. This range is out a continu
ation of the Santa Clara range, both ex
tending parallel to the Pacific coast. Los
Angeles is about twenty miles, as the bee
flies, from the ocean. It is rather a hilly
city, of great importance the last lew
years, on account of the extension here of
the Southern Pacific Railroad. Not many
years ago vegetables could be obtained
at the purchaser’s prices, so great was
the supply and so limited the transporta
tion facilities; but now tne country
around is well settled by persons from the
East and North, who have been driven or
invited here by some pulmonary trouble
or other. The “boom” which is now in
jirocess at Los Angeles is, to outsiders,
simply astonishing. Think of 1,50*4 houses
leing erected in twelve or fifteen months,
and I venture the assertion, without fear
of contradiction, that you may count on
your fingers all the unoccujiied
houses in this growing city. As
a matter of course workmen are_ in
demand. Plasterers get $4 50, $5 and $5 50
per day of ten hours, bricklayers
$4 to $5, and carpenters $3 to $3 50. Extra
hands get $4 per day for work. Rents are
high, but board and lodging are not so
dear as one would imagine. Rooms and
lioard can be had for $5 50, $6 to $7 jier
week.
This is a cosmopolitan city. Here you
can see almost every nationality. As you
would suppose, the inevitable Chinaman
is here, and a good servant he makes.
The large majority of the laundry
business here, ' as 'in Ban Francisi o
and other cities of California, is in
the hands of these Celestials. They go
about their business noiselessly and
steadilv, and work very cheaply. To give
vou an idea: My family gave out a heavy
week’s wash of seventy-three pieces on
Mondav last. John Chinaman came in
the very protection desired, but putting
his little wagon. carted the pieces away,
returned on Friday evening, bringing them
all reallv done —ladies’ dresses, etc. —
fluted as well as any of our old time
mammas could do it, and he charged two
dollars for the entire lot. Now, when
vou consider that wood here is sl2 to
sl6 per cord. and coal (which
comes from Washington and Oregon i
sls to sl6 per ton; also that
water has to lie paid for here—you will
agree with me that the charge was not
excessive. They hire a small place—two
or three rooms —eight, ten oi twelve of
them will crowd into such a place, and at
night they do the leashing of the clothes,
and the consequent heathy comes off at
night, for they resemble sambo's femi
ninity in this resjiect—i. e. they beat the
clothes to -loose the dirt,” as they say.
Of course the buttons don’t fly off. neither
do the clothes come home with holes fresh
made. Yet, take it all in all, they do
prettv well.
Los Angeles is a thriving city of 20,000
inhabitants. It is about six miles square.
There is what is called East Los Angeles,
where the Southern Pacific Railroad de
pots and workshops are situated, which
is inhabited by the poorer classes, with
some exceptions. The principal streets
here are Main and Spring, which extend
parallel for some distance and then unite
somewhat like a V, a handsome block, the
“Temiile block,” being built at their con
vergence, in front of which is a cast-iron
f untain for the public use. Water
here is obtained from the Los Angeles
river, which is dammed up, and trom
the reservoirs. The water is conveyed to
all parts of the city in pipes. The average
cost per month to consumers, whose supply
pipes do not exceed one inch in diameter,
is two dollars. The water is not good;
everv one who comes to California from
the East is disgusted with the water. It
has a limey—almost, in some instances, a
brackish—taste. Rain water is a luxury
never enjoyed here, save in the mansions
of such liicn as J. C. Flood, near San
Francisco, in Menlo Park, the resi
dence of the nabobs. Persons are
forbidden to use the water outside
of the house between 8 a. m. and
5 p. in.; and it is pleasant to see
the members of famines or the servants
everv afternoon after 5 o'clock, hose and
pijie in hand, watering the greensward in
front of their houses. Most of the houses
are of wood, the greater number small
and of one-story, although there are
many large and prettv structures of re
cent construction. We have here twelve
churches, a tine normal and high school
and several public school buildings,
which are crowded with scholars.
Going out of Main street in a northerly
direction, you enter what is called Sonora
town, a collection of one-storv mud huts
or houses, built of adobe, or as they are
called here “dobv” houses, very antiqua
ted, occupied in most cases by Mexicans.
These copper colored beings in this sec
tion are rather primitive in their habits.
As the day advances these Mexicans may
be seen sitting on their door sills, smok
ing or chewing, or playing a violin, and
they are really an uninviting race
vet.’ down in what is called the
“tony” jiart of town, some of
the Senoritas are as pretty and
charming as one would care to see. The
wealth of some of thosp “rancheros” or
“ranch” owners amount to millions. A
ranch is what we Southerners call a plan
tation. You may have a chicken ranch,
a cattle ranch, a sheep ranch, etc. There
is a great deal of wealth here. It is sur
prising that there is no theatre here, but.
on dit, next year a jiublic spirited citi
zen is to build one. The jiost office is a
poorly conducted affair, and is filthy. I
; hardly think the post office inspectors pass
I this wav often. Of stores ot all kinds
there is an adequate supply.
The city is lit up with electricity.
Eleven towers or poles, about 150 feet
high (consisting of two sections withed
together like the masts of a ship ), furnish
a beautiful light to all parts of the city.
We have gas here, too. used in houses,
stores and churches, but many stores
prefer electricity. The electric light here
; costs $5 per light per month. Gas $4 per
1,000 feet. Kerosene, or rock oil as they
term it here, 20 to 25 cents per gallon.
This place, on account of its salubrity
of climate, has a large number of invalids
who come here from all quarters, and
this has caused an influx of the disciples
of EsciUapius, whose shingles may be
seen on every third building in Main and
Sjiring streets. How they contrive to
make a living I cannot see. The Habne
manites’ are here in force. Female doc
tors, there are half a dozen or more. So
1 would advise no young M. 1). to buy a
ticket for Los Angeles. Homie.
A Card to the Public.
A fraudulent and illegal lottery in Ken
tucky has recently paid into certain news
papers a statement as if made by the
Record , of Philadelphia, to the effect that
Generals Beauregard and Early, commis
sioners for the drawings of the Louisiana
State Lottery Company, had confessed in
a recent interview that they only arranged
two draw ings a year, and, furthermore,
that the prizes were paid to fictitious per
sons.
The jiublic is hereby advised that the
statement is an utter forgery; that no
such interview occurred, nor did the Phil
adelphia Record ever state that it did oc
cur. Every drawing, monthly and semi
annual, of The Louisiana State Lottery
Company is under the sole control of Gen
erals Beauregard and Early, as they state
in every advertisement of The Company
over their own signatures, and that mil
lions of dollars have been paid in prizes
all over the country is a matter of general
notoriety.
The public will have fuller information,
both as to tiie character and motives of
the illegal and fraudulent concern in this
monstrous attack, as soon as the facts can
lie put into form for the press.

Wouldn’t Marry an Old Man.
Xeir York Special.
Emily Jackson, aged seventeen, a na
tive of St. Thomas, West India, took a
dose of red oxide of mercury at the house
of Mrs. Gato, 69 Waverly avenue, Brook
lyn, yesterday afternoon, with intent of
committing suicide. She was removed to
the Cumberland Street Hospital before the
poison took effect last night, and later
was pronounced out of danger. She
boarded at 113JHenry street,|but left there
Tuesday and did not return. She called
at Mrs. Gato’s yesterday, after purchas
ing the poison at a Fulton street drug
store on the pretense that she want
ed it for a sore ear. Emily is a
dark, attractive looking girl, and seems
to have had several suitors, among them
a wealthy Cuban tobacco dealer in Maiden
Lane. lie is sixty years old, and though
the girl’s mother, who is at present re
siding at Key West, urged her to marry
him, she refused to do so. Before taking
the poison she wrpte a letter to George Se
comb, of 387 Fulton street, informing him
of what she was going to do and asking
him, for the great love she bore him, to
attend her funeral. A second letter found
was addressed to another young man. At
the hospital she refused to say why she
tried to kill herself.
Poisoned Water to Drink.
•When the fish died in the river, forty
miles above the water works, many peo
ple were alarmed lest the defilement of
the water might extend all the way down.
Happily there was nothing but what
could lie remedied by the use of some
thing that everybody could procure at a
minute’s notice. This little “something”
was Perry Davis’ Pain Killer.
A QUEEN OF THE STAGE.
*Her Second Love*'* and the Important
Secret She Reveals for the Benefit of
Women.
Seic York World.
Several years ago the American public
were aroused bv the entree upon the stage
of a little lady Who had been previously
but little announced. She was one of an
innumerable number of aspirants for pub
lic favor and had no instrumentality,
aside from her own talents to cause, re
cognition. In spite of this fact, however,
she quicklv achieved a warm place in the
heart of the public, which she has con
tinued to hold ever since. When it was
announced therefore, that Miss Maud
Granger would star the coming season in
the plav ‘"Her Second Love." written by
Mr. John A. Stevens, it was only natural
that unusual interest should be mani
fested not onlv in theatrical circles, but
in other branches of the community. This
was speciallv the case, as it was known
that Miss Granger had. for the past year,
been in exceedingly delicate health, and
the determination to star in a strong emo
tional plav was the more surprising. One
of the staff of this paper was accordingly
deputized to see the popular lady and
verify the rumor or announce its incor
rectness.
Miss Granger's countenance is familiar
to nearlv every one in the United States.
It is a face once seeu never to be forgot
ten. Features remarkable in their out
line and contour are surmounted by a pair
of large and deep eyes, indicative of the
greatest soul power. It is easy to see
where Miss Granger obtains the ability to
portray characters of the most emotional
nature. She possesses within herself the
elements of feeling without which no
emotion can be conveyed to an audience.
The man of news found the lady at her
home in this city and was accorded a
quiet welcome. It was evident at once
that she was in greatly improved health,
which the expression and color of her
countenance both indicated.
‘•ls it true. Miss Granger, that you con
template a starring tour the coming sea
son ?”
“Yes, indeed. My season begins in
Chicago on the 16th of July. From there
I go to San Francisco and then play the
remainder of the season through the East
ern and Western States.’’
"Are you confident your health will
permit such an undertaking?”
A ringing laugh was the first reply to
this question, after which she said:
“Certainly. It is true I have been ill
for the past two years, but now I am
wholly recovered. ' Few people can have
any idea of the strain a conscientious
actress undergoes in essaying an emo
tional part. It is necessary to put one’s
whole soul into the work in order to right
ly portray the character. This necessi
tates an utter abandonment of one's per
sonality and an assumption of thecharac
ter portrayed. If this is an emotional part
it is necessary Vo feel the same emotions the
part is supposed' to feel. For more than
a year I actually cried each night in cer
tain passages of a part I was playing.
The audience considered it art. Proba
bly it was, but those were none the less
real tears and the effect was none the less
trying upon my health.”
"But do you anticipate avoiding this in
the future?”
“Not in the least. I expect to have just
as great a strain as before, but with re
stored health and a knowledge of how to
retain it I do not fear.”
“You speak of a ‘knowledge of how to
retain health.’ Will you please explain
what you mean by that?”
“You must be’ aware that women by
their very natures are subject to troubles
and artlictiins unknown to the sterner
sex. The name of these troubles is legion,
but in whatever form they may come they
are weaknesses which interfere with every
ambition and hope in life. I believe thou
sands of noble women are to-day suffering
agonies of which even their best friends
and relatives know little or nothing, and
when I reflect upon it I confess it makes
me sad. Now all this misery arises large
ly an from ignorance of the laws of life or a
neglect to carefully observe them. I
speak from the depths of a bitter expe
rience in saying this, and I am thankful I
know the means of restoration, and how
to remain in perfect health.”
“Please explain more fully.”
“Well. I have found a remedy which
seems specially adapted for this very pur
pose. It is pure and palatable anil con
trols the health and life as, I believe,
nothing else wiil. It is really invalualue,
and if all the women in America were to
use it I am quite sure most of the suffer
ing and many deaths might be avoided.”
“What is this wonderful remedy?”
“ Warner’s Safe Cure.”
“And you use it ?”
“Constantly.”
“And hence believe you will be able to
go through the coming season success
full v?”
“f am quite certain of it.”
“A lew questions more. Miss Granger.
Will you please give me a list of the parts
you have created and the plays you have
taken part in since your first appearance
in public.”
“1 first played for some time with the
amateurs in New York and Brooklyn. I
then went to the Union Square Theatre
for two seasons, after that to the Boston
Globe for one season and then to Booth’s
Theatre, in this city. Next I supported
John McCullough and afterwards starred
in “Juliet,’ ‘Camille,’ ‘Rosalind,’ etc.
Subsequently 1 created the part of Cicely
Blaine in the ‘Galley Slave,’ and also
starred in ‘Two Nights in Rome,’ playing
the part of Antonia. The past year I have
been playing in the‘Planter’s* Wife’ and
the coming season, as I have said, will be
devoted to‘Her Second Love.’ ”
As the writer was returning home he
fell into a train of musing, and wondered
if all the women in this land who are suf
fering could only know Miss Granger’s
experience and the remarkable results
achieved by the pure remedy she used,
how much suffering might be avoided and
how much happiness secured.
