Miss Hill's Display of Grief on Learning
the Senator's Fatal Ill-
Her preparations for the stage have been made on the most elaborate scale, and in utter defiance of all precedents. In her arrangements everything has been subordinated to the exhibition of herself as the claimant for the Sharon millions. The play in which she is to appear, "The Merchant of Venice," has been rewritten in order to bring in a hundred or more local gags, and in one or two scenes scenes from the famous divorce trial have been introduced. Besides this she has determined to appear in the red velvet dress which she wore at the wedding of Sharon's daughter to Sir Thomas Husketh, of England—a garment which was the gift of the senator himself.
Most people are surprised at the amount of property which Sharon died possessed of. It had been supposed that his estate was pretty well run down, but it appears from the schedule which he placed on record that he was worth $15,000,000 at least. The great country place of Belmont, which fell into his hands at the time of the failure and death of its original owner, Mr. Ralston, has been occupied of late by Frank Newland, son-in-law of Sharon. This place, about which so many memories cluster, was never enjoyed by Sharon as it was by Kalston. Sharon visited it occasionally and remained there a day or two at a time, but in the main he was satisfied to live in his well furnished rooms in the city. His tastes were all simple, and even when he was at Belmont over night he invariably slept in the plainsest room in that spacious mansion.
Belmont is about twenty-five miles from this city on the southern Pacific road, and is perhaps ten miles from the ocean. The house is about half a mile from the railroad, and is surrounded by many different varieties of trees, some of them covered with clinging ivy and tropical vines. Although the architecture of the house is not imposing, the mansion is of great size, with spacious entrances, and taken together with the magnificent landscape, it presents a very inviting appearance. Standing on a side hill, it is possible for guests on any of the floors to walk out of their rooms to graveled paths leading to the porches, while on the other side fine views of the valley stretching away for many miles may be obtained.
Ralston furnished the house without regard to expense. Wherever solid silver could be used it was employed in the ornamentation, and from top to bottom the mansion is fairly lined with the costliest mirrors. It stands to-day in about the same condition that Ralston left it in. In the days of its original owner Bolmont was a place for the entertainment of distinguished visitors to the coast. Hundreds of prominent men of both hemispheres have partaken of its hospitality. Since it fell into Sharon's possession only a great gife has occurred there, and that on the occasion of the marriage of his daughter to Sir Thomas Hesketh. No money was spared to make this entertainment as brilliant as any that ever took place on the coast. At was at this ceremony that Sarah Athea Hill figured conspicuously. She had only a little while before formed the acquaintance of Sharon and he purchased an outfit for her. In the splendid-decorated rooms in her brilliant attire she cut a pretty big figure. She exacted liberal attention from the master of the place, and, besides being introduced by him to many of the most prominent people present, it was on his arm that she leaned when she went forward to congratulate the groom and kiss the bride. Many of Sharon's friends have felt little sympathy for him since it was discovered that Miss Hill was the one that he so persistently thrust upon their attention at the Hesketh wedding. On her part it was the triumph of her life, and it is not denied that the millionaire's honors for her on that evening had a good deal to do in giving planiusibility to her claim that she was then his wife, as even his friends have not been willing to admit that he would parade a mistress at his own daughter's wedding.
Before signing the deed of trust conveying all his property to his children, Sharon extracted from his son and son-in-law a most solemn promise that they would never in any manner compromise with Miss Hill. Once or twice he relapsed into unconsciousness, and his death
was thought to be near. But on rejoining again he would once more demand of his relatives a promise that they would not settle the suit, which the woman has brought against him.
If we should ask an American to name a product of wool or wooden, cotton or iron, steel or metal, that is not in urgent need of a market, he would be far more puzzled than if called on to invent a new pleasure.
The Outlet of Genius.
The growth of genius in this era is so rapid that it stamps as a rival of all ages—peerless and alone. In comparison with any other era we are all giants, masters, and millionaires. It is for this very reason that genius outruns and outreathes the demand for its products.
The mystery and middle problem that now turns to genius for solution is: Where is the outlaw for our ready-made articles? Where is the market for wagons, carriages and implements? Where is the purchaser for surplus cloths and grain? The man that can answer these questions is a benefactor. If we turn our eyes eastward there is a crowded wheat from Liverpool, London, Glasgow, and every foreign port. Not even the recent war furnishes the hopes of an outlet. If we look to the worst of the poverty of early settlers—many of them fresh from other shores—prevents their becoming ready consumers, and the only direction that looks at all promising is south and southwest, with a hope that good times or restored confidence, which is the same thing differed—will increase the circulation of money and employ enough men to earn it, for they are the men who spend most liberally and consume most generously. If a single glance will cover it, and a single sentence express it, there is an early day coming with no outlet to genius save through the mutual interchange of products in our own country, and an educated belief that the wants of the laboring classes—long delayed by unsettled business—will demand the greater portion of all surplus products. It is not by decriving corporations, nor promoting strikes, not by talking dynamic, nor denouncing imaginary wrongs, but by one grand union of plans and purposes under a high resolve to restore confidence, promote friendship with Mexico, Peru and the only half-built-up and half-supplied districts of the South and Westest, that the genius of the North will find an outlet. —J. W. Don
Had no one invented the improved methods of waving, that branch alone would consume labor. If the shoes we wear were made by the old slow process there would be another opening for thousands unemployed. Had the steel men remained inactive, labor would be hammering away at what the forges now make as by instinct. The planers have stolen the trade of the carpenters. The turning lathes have driven out the hand laborers. The teams are less needed since steam does the most hauling. Harvest hands are at a discount, and the wood choppers occupation is surely gone.
The power of Mr. Beecher's voice shows no diminution. A well-known artist, who is a member of his congregation, called on the Plymouth pastor one evening and found him amid a circle of friends in a happy mood and relating anecdotes with fluency and with apt expression. Among other stories he told that of the poor young man with one lung, which has been paraphrased by negro minstrel companies for many years past. The consumptive lays his hand on his left side and says in a hoarse whisper, "this lung is all gone." Then smiling the right side of his chest with his clenched fist he adds in a stentorian roar, "But here I am all right." The artist, describing Mr. Beecher's energy of utterance in pronouncing on the soundness of his right lung, says that he gave him such a start as almost to cause him to fail from his seat.

She was a Weapon.
"Did you notice whether that gentleman acknowledged my salutation as he passed us," remarked a young lady to her companion.
"Nor I either," replied her companion. "Any man who would take me for a weapon will have occasion to regret it."
"No, he did not," replied the lady.
"It's a direct insult, and I will never speak to him again," observed the lady.
"Does he consider me one?"
"I don't know that he does; but I am compelled to regard you as one under the circumstances."

VIEWS
ED. VIEWS:—It begins to look as though this don't stop in the corridor and on into the library business were being over done. Why, matters are coming to such a pitch that one cannot give his classmates a friendly greeting as he passes from one class to another. Of course students ought not to bitter long in the halls, but the continual suggestions to move on are running the thing into the ground. Actually when I returned Monday from the two weeks vacation, I was threatened with being sent down the hill because I had the civility to stop and greet my classmates in the hall a few moments during a vacant hour. It is getting too funny altogether, when a couple of students can't speak quietly to one another in the hall a little while, when they have nothing else specially to occupy them. This incessant "on to the library" is annoying and tiresome to everybody even to conscientious students who have no thought of wasting their time, but who, wishing to speak a minute with one another about some necessary thing, stop in the corridors a few minutes. Had not the authorities better stop and see if they are not carrying their rules too far? If they keep on in the present way, venture to prophecy that instead of receiving the aid of the better students in the matter, they will soon have the just reenrollment of all

To the World's Fair at New Orleans, or to any point South, and wish to have a pleasant trip, you will need to be informed as to the best, quickest and cheapest route. The Memphis Short route South, with its Through Buffet Sleeping Cars Kansas City to New Orleans, its Free Reclining Chair Cars Kansas City to Memphis (and being over one hundred miles the shortest line to the South), is practically the only line from Kansas City, the West and Northwest, to all Southern cities. No other line runs through cars between Kansas City and New Orleans. No other route can offer but one change of cars from Kansas City to Jacksonville and other Florida points. There is no other good route between the West and the South. Ask your Ticket Agent for tickets via the Memphis Short Route. Write for large map, with Time Tables, showing through connections.
