MrH. Richardson mentioned casuatly
that Judge Brown hnd talked with Sen

for the new Detention House. Senator
McN'ichol denied it vigorously. I
It was while telling how she came to '
think of the Magdalen Home site that
Mrs. nichardson brought In Senntor Mc- '
Vlchol. I
"I had heard that the Magdalen Home I
site was for sale." said Mrs. lllchard
son, "nnu as soon as I saw Mrs. Jurist,
of the Advisory Board, I told her about ,
It. Mrs. Jurist went to see Judge Brown I
to Interest him In the plan. ,
"And then," said Mrs. Klchardson,
with a deprecatory smile. "Judge Brown
went over to see Mr. McN'ichol. (
"Oh, I don't know what she wanted to
see him for," sho added. "I suppose he I
Just went over to tell him about It."
Senator McN'ichol was found In his
prlvato ofllce In the Lincoln Building. I
He wat. asked It ho had given Immediate '
approval ot tho Municipal Court plans '
when Judge Brown camo to see mm.
"Judge Brown and I never talked about
the Municipal Court," ho said. "I have
discussed It with some councllmen, but I
never saw Judge Brown about those
plans. I will say, however," ho added,
"that I think the Idea is one of the most

NEGRO'S "LANGWIDGE" IN

Aged Colored Man Gets His Freedom
After Extended Remarks.

dungeon deep,
And curt not if the founders of the English
language weep;
Approach the lordly magistrate and take him
by Hurprlee,
And hit him with "flzzstatlcate" and look ex
tremely uc,
The vocabulary of Joteph Marshall, an
tilted Negro, of Spruce and Wamock
streets, gave Slagistrate Tracy consider
able uneasiness this morning. Marshall,
who was accused of getting a bottle of
milk and a loaf of bread under sus
picious circumstance was finally dis
charged so that the court at the Fif
teenth and Vine streets station could get
under way.
"I was ftzzastlcated. Judge," said Mar
shall In the course of an unduly ex
tended speech. "If I misappropriated
the provisions, the annexation was at
tributable to temporary aberration of tha
Intellect."
Asked to explain what he meant by
"llzzastlcated" Marshall looked dubious
foi a moment, so did the policemen
who were attracted by his flow of "lang
widge " "I'll mnke It more apparent,"
f aid Marshall "I was sort , o' dozing
near one of them gas plates In the side
walk of the public thoroughfare and the
gaa. emanating from the upcrture Just
sort o' 'fizznstlcuted' me.
"I finally aroused myself and found
that somehow I had become Inadvertenty
attached to tho bottle of milk and loaf
of bread. I was Jllst examining It when
the guardian of the law Introduced him
self to mo and took me here for this
explanation." But this is as far ua
Marshall got. "You can continue that
the next time you're brought here," said
Magistrate Tracy. "Tou better go home
and run for Congress." And Marshall
went.

COLUMBUS, O., Sept. 23 "Tho mu
tual alllnltles of whisky and crooked
politics" was tho keynote of tho address
in which Theodore Roosevelt opened the
Progressive campaign In Ohio hero last
night. He urged the election of James
R. Garfield for Governor and A, L. Gar
ford for United States Senator, on their
prohibition platform.
"Whisky and crooked polities unques
tionably have strong mutual afTlnlties,"
said Colonel Roosevelt, "and it Is natural
that everywhere the liquor forces ihould
line up against the Progressive party,
sometimes behind one, and sometimes
behind tho other, of tho old parties."
Ho took a strong stand against tho pro
posed amendment to the State Constltu
Uon which will be offered to tho voters
of Ohio this fall In an effort to make
the entire stato "wet."
"In the Stato this year the contest has
been precipitated by the liquor men."
he said, "who have forced beforo the
voters an amendment, which. If success
ful, would mean the abolition of all ef
fective control over the liquor traffic and
the abdication by the State ot all power
to minimize the damage It docs,"
Colonel Roosevelt said that tha Demo
cratic party In Ohio la cither oveitly or
covertly supporting the "wet" amend
ment, and that the Republican party Is
dodging the Issue. He also assailed the
tariff policies of tho Republican and
Democratic parties Under the Republi
can tarllf, ho snld, a few men prosper
too much, while under the Democratic
tailff no one prospers. Ho Indorsed the
