Several times setterday It looked aa though a
ttattlte of David Ilelasco'. suit against N K.
Falrbank for services In making Mrs. Leslie
Carter an tictresa at Mr. Falrbank's Instance,
which has hot yet appeared on tho surface of
the trlnl, vforo going to show Itself, ana the
spectators In Judge Cilegorlcli's court listened
with fresh Interest vv hon this phase of the dls.
puto teemed Imminent. Most of tho day was
taken up with details of tho hustnoss features of
tho case, and there were so many of these that
a welcome chance revived the spectators when
Mr. Horace E. Demlng, counsel for Mr. l'nlr
hank, asked Mr. Ilelasco what wero tho reasons
that led Mrs. Carter to object to tho employ
ment of E. O. Gllmoio as her manager. Mr. Ho.
lasco answered that It was becausosho was In
trouble.
"What kind of troubles?" asked Mr. Doming.
"Domestic," said Mr. Belascoj "she was get
ting a divorce from her husband."
The Jury nnd the spectators begun to look In
t crested. But Mr. Domini: asked no moro ques
tions on that subject. The only suggestion of
Itramencaln when Sir. Doming said that ho
had glvon tho counsel for tho complainant
notice to produoo certain letters written by Mr.
i Falrbank to Mrs. Carter, vv hlch sho In turn had
banded over to Mr. Ilelasco.
"Here they are," said Mr. Dlttcnhoefer, pro
ducing a bundle of them.
Mr. Dcmlnc started to put them on the coun
sel table.
"No, you don't," said Mr. Dlttcnhoefer. "You
wcreonlj blurting about those letters, and o'o
called your blutT. You must rend them here."
I Mr. Demlng read a numberof cards nnd notes
but In nono of these was there anything to ro-
I awaken the Interest of the spectators In tho fea
ture of the trial about which thev were most
anxious to learn. Ono of them from Mr. Fair
bank read :
1 am going out to dine this ev coins, but wilt call at
about S o'clixk. jj. K. K.
It was written on a card. Mr. Ilelasco, during
the greater part of tho morning session, had
nothing moro exacting to do than sit quietly in
tho witness chair while Mr. Demlng devoted
I tho cross-examination to tho rending of a num.
I ber of notes and telegrams that passed between
4 Mrs. Leslie Carter, E. K. Wlllard. Mr. Falr-
I bank's roDrcsentative, and a number uf other
I persons concerned In Mr. Falrbank's unrroflt-
able venture. These communications were brlof,
I generally referring to appointments and some
times descending to details as unimportant as
tho request for two scats to see "The Ugly
Duckling."
The form of these letters varied littlo and for
two hours nearly the openlne phrase "Dear
Mrs. Carter" reechoed through tho court room
as Mr. Demlng read thee notes. Their contents
never aroused the spectators from the apathy
which familiarity with the preceding examples
hail created. None of them seemed to have anv
J. other effect than to corroborate what the
g plaintiff had tetltled to In regard to his business
H relations with Mr. Falrbank and his representa-
tlves. Here are two samples:

Cm The instruction of Mrs. Carter continued ac-
m. cording to Mr. Belasco'a testimony after "Tho
Ugly Duckling " company started on its trav
Wl als and was never neglected.
i i "I taught her on th trains." Mr. Belasco
aid. " going from one town to another and
. talked to her about her parts In the plays."
4 " You mean to say that you taught Mrs. Car-
1 ter thirty of the greatest roles in the range of
1 tho drama within fifteen months at the rate of
A two a month and that she could act them uowi"
A asked Mr. Demfng.
m "I do," the witness answered, " and after a
week's trial sho could go on tho stage and act
j any one ot them now."
m " Do you mean to say that yonr services for
training the actress and selecting a play anil su
m perlntendlng a tonr tbut was a disastrous llnan
! cial failure were worth $115, Quo V" Mr. Demlng
asked tho witness, who modestly, and with eyes
M cast down, replied that they were worth tnat
m i sum. A number of judgments against Mr.
' Delasco were produced, and tho witness ex-
i plained the circumstances under which they
I had been obtained, and added thnt he had been
H t for fourteen years in New York and did not owe
9 a dollar now.
3 I Paul Potter, the dramatist, who had been
H viewing ths proceeding1) blandly for tho past
B two da) a, was called nf ter recess In order to al
I I low him the opportunity of leaving low n In tho
9 I afternoon. Mr. Potter was on the stand to tes-
I tlfy as to the value of Mr. Ilelasco's services In
f I revising, to suit Mrs. Porter's cupocity. the ploy.
. "Tho Ugly Duckling." Mr. Potter was allow ed
I to say that ho knew of Tlelasco's reputation, but
i after an experiment with a Inug hypothetical
I question at getting Into evidence nt whnt lie
'1 valued Mr. Belasco's services, the hypothetical
r question was ruled out.
Mr. Ilelasco was recalled to the stand. A let-
1 ter was read to him which he said referred to a
( communication he hod received from Mr. Fair-
i bank.
J "Mr. FMrbank," the witness Bald, "told me
I that he would deposit first a sum of S10.0UO
I with Mr. Allen for mo to draw on tor Mrs. C'nr-
' ter's use in the enterprise. Ho raid he wanted
Mm. Carter to sign a papor prorult-lng to return
the $10,000. and ho wanted me to ask Mrs. Car
ter to do It and then return tho paper. I asked
her and she eaid sho would. 'I hat was the last
heard uf tho matter. Hue never did it, but no
?uestlons were ever asked and that was the last
heard of the matter.
Mr. Uelasco sold that he hod never employed
Allen. Morrison. Herrlck. C. K. Willnrd, or any
of the large number of Mr. Falrbank's repre
sentatives; that he never hail paid an; one of
them a cent, and had never Ixeu nsked fur any
money by them. After this h reDeated on the
cross-examination that he bud never promised
anybody to pay back a ceul of tho losres of the
company, lie was then excused and left the
! court room in double quick tlmo.
The story of tho Interview In Mrs. Carter's
apartment at the Madlron onthe Hur.day after
noon before the company left Now York was
retold with great solemnity by K. D. Price, the
manager of the company, who Is at present In
chart,'" of n variety theatre on the upper east
sldo. He told of the manner in which be bad
insisted on receiving bis falary before be left
town and a guarantee for the remaining sum.
"We bad got to that stago In the proceed
ings." Mr. Price said. "In which Mr. Falrbank's
name was very freely used. Previously it had
. been kept In rather a haze. Mr. Allen and Mr.
I W'lllard the witness pronounced this name
V with both feet nn the last syllablel said they did
1 not go around with so rvuch money In tnelr
CJ pockets. It was Sunday, and 1 acceded to their
H request to give them time to communicate with
m Mr, Falrbank. I went to Toronto and a deposit
M was made of tho sum then duo mo In my bank."
r 1 he deposition thnt hart been signed by Price.
I stating that snld'Ilelasco was the manager or the
I company, was show n to the witness, but before
I ho could answer tbe objection of the defence
was sustained, nnd nothing was learned as to
the grounds on which he swore that Mr. Ile
lasco owned tho company. The case was ad

LITE XOFICS AJIOVI TOWS,
Tho single tax outdoor spellbinders, who
linve boon holding lneVttnfrs In New York's
strrots erymuch after the fashion of tho
Bah at Ion Army, are agitated unpleasantly by
tho nrrcAt of two of tholr missionaries in Dela
ware, and thoy propose to test their right
to preach the single tax doctrine, wherevor nnd
whenoor they cIidso, In a court of law. Thoir
meetings hero have thus far nronsed only a
mild curiosity on tbo part of passors-by, who
stop to llston for a few minutes and then
pass on. asking themselves whnt It was all
about any way. Half a dozen of these follow
ers'of Henry fleorge, with the aid of a truck
and two torches, set up n meeting ono night
last week outside of tbo Madison Square Gar
den, where tho Cuban Fair was in progress.
Tho man who ran It nddressed half a doron
people who had stopped to look at his truck
as "My friends," nnd then talked for live mln
utos. Tho atidlcnco Increased to about twen
ty, not counting two professional beggars who
worked on tho outsldo. Tho speakers worn
joting men, and each had a set oration which
hodelhcred in luncirtnln tones through tho
torcli smoke, to tho delight of tho listeners
who were coming nnd going. No one off tho
truck could find out why thoy were talking
o- what they were talking' about, but it was
pood practice for tho young men, and the spell
bound didn't block tho street to anr extent,
Tho question of tipping n barber becomes very
much more Important In tho high-class shops
where t!0 nnd 23 centH are charged than It does
In those establishments whloh are satisfied with
tho usual compensation of 10 cents. One of
the barbers Intervlowod In Tim 8UN yostcrday
admitted that ho did not consider 30 conts a
high price for a shavo, nnd In tho cxponslvo
shops this sura is likely to bo almost doubled.
Probably tho owners of those shops, like
tomo of tbo Fifth nvenuo tailors, wish it under
stood that they do not exist for any but peoplo
who nro willing to pav high prlojs for what
they get. Tho growth of tbo practlco of tip
ping jnrbers has not had tho effoct of reducing
the prices in tho shops, for thor are higher to
ilay than oer before, and it Is noor sur
prising to stop into a shop nonadnys and Iinu
that live cents has Iwon added to the price list
throughout tho whnlo schedule. Dcsplto tho
protests of ono of tho barbers who discussed
the subject tho thcr day. It Is tbo brush boy
who suffers by the tip that go to tho barbers.
Ho Is rarely tipped, and men who formerly
f;ao bun flo cunts nnd allowed thoineelvcs to
ie thoroughly brushed now walk out of tho
shop with tho disconsolate boy follow
ing them nnd tnlng hard to brush them
from behind. Tho customers aro apparently
jirfcctly willing to pay for tho extra scrWco
thev Ret. and not only do that, but wait for
tho barber w hom thev aro accustomed to em
ploy. In one or the shop) near tho City Hall
there Is one man w ho docs a remarkable lot
of stunts In connection with an operation that
is ofilclaliy recngnlred as nothing moro than
n Bhne. After tills feature of tho operation is
finished, there follows the application of a num
ber of hot wettiwels, tnctnl massage, and tbe
use of emollients that soften the skin. This
man receives from bis uugrudglng patrons his
rcgulnr tip. and there Is always a lino wnlt
Ing to get into his chair. olmdy Is ever hur
ried for the sake of those that are waiting, nnd
there Is in every caso the understanding that
the customer receives o special attendant o for
which ho Is willing to pay. 'Whether or not
this nartlcnlor lirber and others like bim would
js equally conscientious If no tip were forthcom
ing tt Is not possible to say. but often hon every
other chair In tho shop Is empty four or ll e men
anxiously await tho attention of tbe popular
operator, willing to pay him the tip if they are
able to get under his ministrations.
Tho children's classic of our grandparents
and great-gTandparenis. "Sandford nnd Mcr
ton," Is now being sold by down-town street
endcrc nt two cents a copy. One vender has
sold between thirty and forty copies a day for
the' last week. When contrasted with tho
Juvenile literature of tho irescnt period,
"Sandford nnd Merlon" makes one think that
his grandparents when children wero easily
nmused. Tho book had a popularity even in
this country, where much of Its matter must
have been fcxi English to lw entirely under
stood. Tho imoks now selling for two cents
each were originally published at 'JO cent", to
gether with "ltoblnon Crusoe," "The Swiss
Family Itoblnson." and other oil tlmo boys'
books.
Mmo. Nordlca's marriage surprised every
body who knew her. because only a few weeks
before it took plnco there was a well-defined
rumor travelling about that tho prima donna's
engagement to tho Hungarian tenor was off,
and nn authoritative statement from the Blngcr
herself was believed to bo tho source of tho
rumor. Herr Dochme" appeared suddenly and
unannounoed In this country, and nobody
knew ho was here until tho news of his mar
riage was telegruphed from Indianapolis. Now
some of the facts about tho wedding are grad
ually becoming known, nnd tho devotion and
.nterferen.'enf nn Intimate friend of Mine. NoT
dica's aresaidlto be responsible for tho tenor's
unexpected nppearauco In this country. It
teems that this friend, who was, lu a pro
fessional way, a more or less constant com
panion of tho Atnericnn singer, kept Herr
Dovhmo informed of tho situation here, nnd
communlcnted to hlra immediately the. news
that 111' engagement to Mme. Nordlcn had
been called off, according to gossip here.
Tho Ik trothed, on tho stri ngth of this, promptly
set sail for the United State to claim his bride,
nnd succeeded so well In his mission that be
fore nnybody knew of his presence hero tbo
news of Uio marrlagn was mado public.
New York is Just now entertaining a man
of tho not uncommon namo of Fitzgerald,
who claims that he is tho pioneer In his lino
of work, nnd ho doosn't fear rivalry. Several
of the recently published medical text books
contain many photographs of Fitzgorald, and
ono glance at them will convinco any ono that
ths original Isn't likely to suffer by compe
tition. Fitzgorald is an undcrslzod, wiry
looking man with musoles of iron. Ho
doesn't look llko a freak, and ho is ono only
wln"n ho chooses. For nearly twenty jears
no, bo has made a living us an anatomical
hubject for various medical colleges. Ills
valuo as nn illustration for a teacher or onat

ulso stop his pulse or control tho largo ar

result.
"1 have been doing this sort of thing for
nearly twenty years," ho said u day or two
ago, and I haven't suffered any serious re
nulls. Onco in a wlillo my muscles knot up

otherwise I nin perfectly well. How did I

Drier Review or Important aa.4 Interest,
late New rnbllenttoae.
In "A Social Highwayman," by Elizabeth
Phlpps Train (J. U. Llpplncott Company. Phlla
delphla), we have tho history of a man whose
heart, like that of Dartre, according to Macau
lay, was blaok with wickedness. It Is remark
able, even taking Into allowonce the well-known
stupidity of police detectives since Oaborlau
died, that Courtlce Jnffrey, colebrated In this
history, should have run with Impunity so long
a career. It la to be said, how over, that his end
was singularly appropriate, though exaspernt
ingly delayed. The heart ot the reader will
jump witu an agreeauio sense ot jusuco un
filled when he comas to that possago where It is
recorded that a bust of ex-Inipector llyrnes falls
upon JaiTrey and makes a dead highwayman of
him. Seldom In fiction do wo meet with tho al
lotment of a punishment that is so thoroughly
satisfactory. For a social highwayman to bo
killed by the falling upon him ot any article of
household furniture would bo n matter for
thankfulness, but to liavo htm killed by a mar
ble bust of ex-Inspocior Ilyrnos Is to fill tbe
measure full Indeed. We must In candor say
that wo are not qulto sute that tho bust that
killed Courtlco Jnffrey was a bust of tho ex
Inspector. It is not so stated In tho text; but It
seems to us ns though tho accompanying Illus
tration supplied a likeness affording a sufficient
warrant for tho assumption. If it Is not Mr.
HyrneVs bust wo should like to know whoso bust
It Is. The Illustration shows upon tho face of
the bust an expression of triumph nnd Justice,
not to say excusable professional gleo. A bust
of Julius Ceosar or Aloxander Hamilton
would hnrdly liavo been at the pains to look
thnt way, wo should think, but certainly thore
Is no question that tho Incident marked
tho finish of tho social hlghwavman. "Tne
weight had fallen upon his head, striking him
full in the temples," tho author says, and no
body can doubt that a bust which was at the
pains to strike Its victim in both temples was
lltttd to do perfect business. We Bhould not
supposo that many renders would bo so senti
mental as to shed tears for tho fate of tho social
hlghvvaymnn. Ho had robbed tho Duchess of
Clayhorough and Soflora Caprices, both of
whom bad an unquestionable right to their
own diamonds, and by his onn confession,
tho moment before the bust fell upon him, he
had "stolon right and left, availing himself of
n marvellous gift ot elelght-of-hand to possess
himself of a competency by dispossessing
others." Ho deserved his tnte. In tho Illustra
tion, by tne way, tho bust Is represented as
striking him on tho back of tho head. Wo sup
poso it struck him full lu the temples nf tern ard.
It would havo boon Interesting If tbo stroko in
the temples could havo been pictortally rcpre
sentqkl. ,
A curious book certainly Is "'Twlxt Cupid
and Crcesus; or, the Exhibits In nn Attach
ment Suit," written and Illustrated by Charles
P. Didler. published bj tho John It. Williams
Company of llaltlmoro and bearing tho stamp
also of tho American Nows Company. This Is a
second edition, nt which wo can hardly wonder,
for so unusual a book Is calculated to Interest
IK'irtde, and It is not likely, moreover, that a
book which is evidently difficult and expensive
to prepare was put forth in a very extcnslvo
edition in tho first placo. Here nre letters ami
telegrams produced In fao slmllo upon real
noto paper nnd real telegraph blanks,
pasted neatly upon tho different pages
Here also aro slips of printed matter,
looking exactly llko clippings from well
known newspapers, pasted in In the snmo
manner. The letter sheets are or different col
ors, and engraved with various monograms anil
other insignia. The writing Is on both side,
and runs np and down and crosswise. In the
fashion that Is at once so Inexpllcnblo and so
familiar, and the newspaper clippings include
bits of the neighboring and irrelevant columns,
and In form, t) pe, and color of paper nro per
fect reproductions. AH together they tell n
Btoryof love, Jealousy, and misunderstanding;
nnd to assist them there Is an excellent series of
illustrations. Including portraits and designs of
symbolical Import. One reads, then. In Jack
Garnet's handwriting wbnt Jack Garnet lias to
Bay to his sweetheart, Edith Ralston; In Edith
Garnet's handwriting what she has to say to Jack
Qarnct and to another man, nnd In the other
man's handwriting what the other man has to
ray to Edith Italston. One handles whnt seems
to be the actualorlglnalcorrespondcnceof these
several ncrsons. and one sees, moreover. Just
how Edith Italston looked as she sat in a box at
tho opera, or nt her writing desk, or In the act
of kissing Jack Garnet, nnd how Jack Garnet
and the other man In the case look underdllTer
ent circumstances and provocations. Wn feel a
passing pang In reading In one of Miss Hal-ion's
letters to Jack Garnet a passage In which she
speaks or the other man ns " a member ot one or
our own clubs, and whom, I nm told. Is
a young C rn sus." This is not exactly all that
the sensitive could wish, but it adds, perhaps,
the last touch ot realism to the story. Wo can
well bc-llevoor Edith ilalston that, binutlful as
she Is In person, distinguished as gliomas In her
noto paper and lit r calligraphy, she was still
capable ot Ignoring occasionally the proper dis
tinction between who nnd whom. We are sorry
that It bhould havo been so, but It Is not difficult
to credit this testlmonv that It was so.
It Is grotir.vlng to see a new edition ot that
learned work, "Fancy Drinks ami Popular
lieveruges," by "'Ihe Only William" (Dick A.
Fit7geraldl. This Is an Indication that the per
fected skill of "Tho Only William" Is making
Its way In the world, and that a rood thing is
pretty suro to bo pushed along. Five hundred
and ninetoen receipts nro contained In this
compact and handy volume. As the author
soys, "a drink well tc-ved Is worth two that
lack In presentation," nnd It follows thnt If the
drinks here explained aro served as "Tho Only
William" serves tnem they will bo round to
number a round thousand.

to disappoint no reader. Mr. Mott's story Is nut
