A woman will remember and resent an affront when she has condoned and tfor- gotten a score of wrongs. Persons who are in sympathy with one another are apt to appreciate the same jest, to perceive at once and together the subtle point of a joke. Women continually complain that they have no time. They always find time for what they particularly want to do. Does the woman exist that has not time to write to the man she fs in love with? A generous, high-minded man is always at a terrible disadvantage in any relation with a selfish woman. She demands every- thing from him and will give nothing in return. It is not what women say, but what they refrain from saying, that draws men to them and holds them firmly. = 202 — “Papa,” asked Tommie, “is it cowardly to strike something littler than you that can’t defend itself?” t is indeed,” replie Well, I don't know, his fathar, reflected Tommie, “I don't see how we could light the gas without striking a maich.”—Harper’s Ba- zar. ————+e0______ It matters little what ft fs that you want zpWhether a situation or ‘a servant—a “want” ad. in The Star will reach the person who can fill your need. PEARL MALTBY FREE Order for Her Release Signed Today by Justice Cole, SHE PROMISES FOTORE OBEDIENCE A Private Hearing Disappoints a Large Crowd of People. i ANDERSON NOT — PRESENT Pearl Maltby, the young girl who mys- teriously disappeared from her home on L Street several days ago and who was ar- rested at her father’s request on the Aque- duct bridge Thursday evening and locked up at the first precinct, was released from custody this morning by Judge Cole on the writ of habeas corpus sued out on her be- half yesterday afternoon by Attorneys Ed- ward L. Gies and R. Newton Donaldson. The petition for the writ of habeas cor- pus, as exclusively stated in The Star, set forth the facts of the girl's arrest, and sub- mitted that she was detained and impris- oned and thereby deprived of her liberty without warrant of law, and without any accusation of criminality being made against her. Judge Cole directed the writ to issue,com- manding the police avthorities to produce ce girl before him at 10 o'clock this morn- ing. tS anticipation of the hearing hundreds of men and not a few half-grown boys gathered long before the hour set for the hearing in and about the court room. The great majority of them were those usually attracted by such cs , who thronged the court room and corridors out of mere idle curiosity. Lawyers Crowded Out. Attorneys awaiting the dispcsition of their cases were crowded out of their places, and even the court officials were compelled to elbow their way in and out of the court room. The judge was late in making his appear- not reaching the court house until ance, after 11 o'clock. Miss Maltby, escorted by and in the nominal custody of Detective made her appearance at the city w minutes before lu and was take. » Cole's y attired in and a small toqu her Y private She was brown tan shoes, perched jauntily on She seemed to really enjoy the of her position, and laughingly 1 when she saw the great crowd of sted by her ©: “My, but there t of people inte be at m. head. to th 's father soon joined her im room, and there they awa c When Judge Cole © District nd Donalds nd vointmient of the sation, , held the hear- rivate Hea dis = Was Brief. upicd not more than four utes, Mr. Davis explaining to Cole that the girl had been arrested nd detained by the police authorities on he request of her father, who, under the common law, is entitled to have the cus tody of her until she is twenty-one years . she being but nineteen now.

Mr. Divis also remarked that cnly a court of law could deprive Mr. Maltby of the cu: tedy of his daughter, but she had knowledged the varent's rights, and upon her premise to return home with him, the government would that she be re- leased.

Shortly after Judge Cole directed the writ to Issue, and it had been served on the police authorities, Attorneys Gies and Donaldson set about to secure her release on bail. District Attorney Davis informed them that he would agree to her release on a bond of $200 for her appearance in urt this morning, but, owing to a.mis- understanding of an engagement between them and the clerk of the court, bail was not gi ne ‘The girl having meantime assured her uncle that she would return to her hom her racther and father visited her at the station house in the evening prepared to escort her home. Lieut. Amiss, in charge of the precinct, infurmed them, however, that the court having, in issuing the writ of habeas corpus, commanded him to pro- dvee her in court this morning, he could not release her unless she gave bonds for her appearance today. Therefore, the ycung woman, much to her disgust, and greatly to the disappointment of her par- ents, was compelled to remain in con- finement for another night. It is said that she became very angry when she discovered that she could not be ed last evening, and reproached her ther in any but affectionate and dutiful words, Today she appeared to be more dutiful, and {t is understood that she will leave in a few days on a visit to her uncle's family down in Virginia. ees Offered Him Two Dollars, From the Chicago Times-Herald, An oid Swede farmer who lives on the Baltimore and Ohio road a few miles out of town had the misfortune to lose a val- uable colt the other day. The animal jumped out of a pasture, ran down upon the rallway and was caught in a cut by ar express train. The claim agent of the road went out to effect an amicable settlement, if possibie, with-the old man. “We are very sorry, of course, that this affair happened,” said the railway man, “and I hope it will not be necessary for us to go into court.” The old farmer looked at him suspicious- ly and shifted about uneasily, but said nothing. “You must remember,” continued the claim agent, “that your coit was a tres- passer on our property when the accident occurred. We don’t want any litigation, however, If we can help it, and we'd like “Vell,” slowly said the Swede, “Ay tal you. Ay bin sorry das fool colt runned on de railroad track, but Ay bin poor man, Ay shal give you two tollar!” ——— os A Consistent Woman.

The regular running of the cars on the Capital railway, which extends from the navy yard gate at the foot of Sth street southeast across the Eastern branch to Congress Heights, was begun late yester- day afternoon. The introduction of rapid transit was enthusiastically grected by the population in the thickly settled neighbor- hood traversed by the road. Owing to the failure of the compsny to secure a permit to run its cars by overhead wire across the Anacostia bridge, passengers were transferred, taking cars at either side of the river, The overhead trolley used across the Eastern branch, carried the cars rapidly up the long hill to St, Blizapeth’s Asy- lum, and thence on to Congress Heights. A party of invited guests occupied the th car and spent some time at Wilson Park, on Congress Heights, which is to be made a pleasure resort. There was a band in attendance, and music and dancing were en- joyed, Th people of Anacostia turned out en e to greet the car ‘Trains are now running regularly every half hour, and at Wilson Park tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock the program given last night will bes repeated. e underground system on this side of the Anacostia bridge is working very satis- factorily. The cars connect with those of the Capital Traction Company at the navy yard gate, and a free transfer system has been arranged for passengers from Ana- costia and beyond. —— Danger. From Pack.

Referring to the lately tliscovered manu- scripts which j;urport to be sayings of Christ, Bishop Satterlee said in a recent interview at Lambeth: “I have read something about these words of Christ contained in a manuscript found in an old tomb in Exypt. It is said in what I read about it to date from 50 to 300 A. D. That is a long time after the death and resurrection of Christ, and 11, therefore, at best, can only be what some pious early Christian copied from one of the gospels in use in those days of the church. “The holy gospels, as we have them in English, are translated from equally early, if not earlier, manuscripts, which in their turn were copies, so at least we are bound to believe, in the absence of some proof to the contrary, of the original gospels writ- ten by the evangelists or their contem- Poraries. This takes away all value from the newly discovered manuscript as an exegetical document. It is a curious and most interesting relic of early Christianity and nothing more. “Yes, we have talked about this dis- covery, but none of the bishops I have talked with about it seem inclined to give the manuscript more importance than 1 do. After all, what does it purport to be? Some fragmentary words of Christ, written not earlier than the second century, no one knows by whom. There are six or eight sayings of Christ in the manuscript and two or three of them are so fragmentary that they are meaningless. The others, so far as I can see by what is said of them in the papers and the abridged translations that have been published, are simply par- aphrases of what we already have as the words of Christ in the Scriptures. In no material way do they differ. If they did differ, what material value would they have? Only that to which a dgcument is entitled as a rare and ancient curiosity.” The Archbishop of Canterbury, for exam- ple, was extremely conservative and de- clined absolutely to say a word on the sub- ject for publication. : —————— Dividing the Estate. The will of the late George P. Donn, dat- ed February 1, 1894, and naming John H. Donn, son, as executor, was filed today.
