office while Mr. Ridgdy was tai'juent
for luncheon. The loss was not dis
covered until after 4 o’clook. The
thieves used dupl cate keys to unlock
tho office and the* vault, and they
worked so quietly that with a dozen
clerks at work on cither side of the
room, no suspicion was aroused. The
vault and that in the revenue collert-
or's office ace only separated by a wall
and Chief Crelk Vredonibura In the
collector's office beard some one mov

by the return of one of tho men next

Paine’s Celery Compound Strengthens
Nervous Children.
London, April 3.—The central crimi
nal court, Old Bailey, was deisely
Stacked with people long before the
hour of opening today, the attrition
being fhe trial of the action of Oscar
Wilde against the Marquis of Qu-ens-
burry for libel. Justice Colllna <alled
the case at 10:30 a. m. The pros coition
was conducted by Sir Edward Chrke,
Q. C., XI. P., and the Marquh of
Queensberry was defended by Edsard
H. Carson, Q. C., M. P. Lawyer Btsley
watched the proceedings on behalf of
Lord Dougins of Warwick.
Oscar Wilde, wearing a light blue
overcoat, entered the courtroon In
company with his solicitor, Mr. Hum
phreys. He resolutely matntoinel an
air of unconcern, despite the fact that
everybody was staring at him, and took
a seat in front of Sir Edward Cirke.
The Marquis of Queenabcrry entered
the dock, and in answer to the tsual
questions, pleaded not guilty, siding
that the so-called libel was true, and
had been made known in the interest
of public morality.
Sir Edward Clarke, in opening the
case, revicrwcu me oveiuence Isv" Is
tile police court, dwelling upon the
writing on the card which constituted
the libel complained of. TMs writing
alleged that Wilde had been pmlng
immorally. It had been notorious, ho
said, that It was not charged that there
was any actual offense, but the gravity
of the codV consisted In the tact that
the libel complained of had extended
over a long period of time.
The Marquis of Queensberry, Sir Ed
ward said, bad ultt) accused Wilde of
having solicited a number of gentle
men to engage with him in n series
of grave offenses. Several of these gen
tlemen would be called to deny what
ever the Marquis mlght-ray on cross-
cxamlnatktm.
At tills point, the Marquis, who. with
clinched flats, sat glaring an Wilde,
made n movement as though he intend
ed to attack hint, and he undoubtedly
would have done so had It not been
for the persons between them.
Sir Ed ward, continuing, said that
Mr. WHde had been n close triend of
the Queensberry family until 1893,
when he learned of the offensive state
ments being made against him by a
man named W<»)d, who hnd either
stolen or found some letters written
by Mr. Wilde to Lord Alfred Douglas.
He offered to return these let tots for
money and afterward, at Wood’* earn
est entreaty, Mr. Wilde paid fils fare
to America. Later, Mr. Wilde learned
that two men named Khehlin and Allen
pretended to have In their possession
compromising letters, but XIr. Wilde
refused to purchase them. Mr. Wilde, he
snld. admitted having written In 1893
a most extravagant letter to l-ord Al
fred Douglas In answer to a poem the
latter had written. Despite the 8*ntl-
inents expressed In this letter, the jury
must take Into consideration the artis
tic circle In which Mr. Wilde moved.
Mr. Wilde himself described tnlB let
ter as a “prose sonnet.”
In 1X03, Sir Edward said, the Mar
quis of Queensberry openly libeled Mr.
Wilde In the latter’* own house, and
was shown the door In the presence
of servants nnd refused further admit
tance. The annoyance waa aggravated
by the behavior of the Marquli of
Queensberry on the first night of the
production of mnny of Mr. Wilde’s
plays. The letter which Mr. Wilde had
written to Lord sUfred Douglaa 'Was
read. ■» follows:
"My Dear Boy: Your sonnet Is quite
lovely. Your rose leaf lips seem made
no less for the ntuslc of the song thnn
for the madness of kisses. Your slim,
gilt soul walks between poetry and pas
sion. I know that Hyaclnthus, who
wus loved by Apollo, was you in the
Greek Idylls. Why arc you alone In
London, nnd when do you go to Swin
burne? Do you sleep In the gray twi
light of aothtc thlnga? Come here
whenever you like, but go to Salisbury
first."
The Marquis, Sir Alfred Clarke mid,
now attacked Mr. WIHe respecting hi*
"Dorian Grey” nnd hla articles In the
Chameleon which It Is alleged that he
published In the interest nnd for the
furtherance of Immoral practices.
Mr. WIIJc was then called to the
atand and detailed his rel.U'nn* with
the family of the marquis. Hla tehtl-
mray followed tne line* of hit counsel's
address.
He said ihfit he had no connection
with the Chameleon end strongly disap
proved of the articles entitled “Acolyte
and Prle*t." which had been published
therein* As regarded 'Dorian Grey,"
Mr. WUde said it had first appeared
as a serial its Lipplncott's Magazine
but bad been altered warn published
in book form.
Cows-examined by Mr. Carson, Mr.
Wilde said he was aware that Lord
Alfred had written articles In the Cham
eleon. One of them was entitle! 'Two
Loves." he did not regard as Improper
though the ‘ loves” were boys. He re
garded portions of "Priest and Acolyte”
as disgusting but did not tiling It blas
phemous. He knew that the Chame
leon hud a circulation among the stu
dent* of Oxford University.
Referring to hi* publication "Phllos-
MAOC FROM
High Grade Tobacco
ABSOLUTELY PURE
•written.
Wilde denied generally and specifical
ly all of the dhargOM of Immorality
brought against him by the Marqitle of
Queensberry.
XIr. WUde said that he gave '.Vied
the fifteen pounds because Lori A.frtd
Douglaa had aoked him to assist Weed.
He admitted that he thought the mat
ter waa blackmail, yet he gave the man
five pounds besides his dinner, tho next
day and saw him off for Amet.'ca.
Throughout his testimony Mr. Wilde
maintained perfeot composure. He fi<-
quently ran his fingers through his
hair, a habit which Is peculiar to him.
Several times he propounded paradoxes
to Mr. Carson and tn the course of the
questioning contended that the toiler
addrenfeed ko Lord Alfred Douglas,
which was rood In the court, was beau
tiful, but that It could not lie Judged
as a letter, apart from art. He denied
that he hid madly adored "a nan 20
years his junior; he did not adore any
one except himself, nor did he liel'exe
that any book affected the conduct of
Its readers."
NO THANKS TO NEWSPAPERS.
Queer Action Taken by Members of
the Baltimore Conference.
Washington, April 3.—The 11th an
nual session of the Baltimore confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal church
South closed at noon today with the
announcement of the assignment of
pastors for »h* ensuing year. Tie
report of th* statistical secreimy
was presented at the session today.
There are 44,873 church members in
this conference, an Increase of 1,1M
over last year. The number of local
preachers Is 126, being nine more than
the year before. Washington heads
the list with a membership of 7,904
and 20 preachers.
In the proceedings today came a se
quel to an incident of last week, when
Rev. Dr. Tongue objected to the con
ference calling upon President Cleve
land, a full account of wriilch appeared,
In all of the local papers at the time.
It has been customary In the past,
history of fhe conference, It was
stated, to thank those Institutions and
people who they felt had benefit,>d the
organlzakra. Dr. Stanton was granted
the floor and he made the motion that
the city postnfflee officials and the
newspapers that had been faithfully
reporting the doings be extended a
vote of thanks.
Half a dozen clergymen at once de
manded a division of the resolution
nnd pavage at the first only. This
was agreed to, whereuon Dr. Stanton
renowed his motion with regard to
the press In th* face of violent oppo
sition on the part of fhe Rev. Dr. R.
Smithson, presiding elder of Washlng-
tlon district, who could see nothing In
the objects of Ihe press In representing
the conference.
A number of clergymen debated the
proposition with some zeal, but
Bishop Cranberry cut short the flow
of eloquence by putting tne question.
A vociferous majority tabled the mo
tion.
Rev. W. F. Hamner arose and, with
a kindly expression, announced that the
conference had “made n wholesale
slaughter of the reporters," and,
though some tn accuracies In reports
had (toon noticed, he moved ’he pass
age of a resolution of thanks to those
papers that had been making accurate
reports of the conference. Dr Hyde
of the Valley Female College gave the
motion a second.
A voice suggested that each paper
would consider itself one of the sheet*
referred to and the scheme would be
a failure.
The bishop entered a timely sugges
tion that the conference was but mak
ing news for the papers.
A rising vote was called for and Dr.
Hbmner’s resolution waa lost by a
vote of 74 to SI.
