THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY REVIEW.

Kissing and Other Things.

Among the letters sent here anent the question I asked, as to whether it is true that ladies sit on the knees of their beaux in New York (as we know they too often do in the country) is one from a born New Yorker, who not only insists that the custom never took root here, but adds that, "except in very high and in very low life, there is very little kissing before engagements for marriage." He says that he was not certain about it, but that happening to mention the subject at a whist club of half a dozen married couples, it turned out that not one of the women had been kissed until her troth was plighted. A funny incident marked the discussion, according to my informant. One of the men had a loose memory. "We used to kiss, sometimes, didn't we?" he said to his wife. "No, sir," she said, with deep indignation, "you never kissed me until after we were engaged: you. tried to, and fought for the privilege, but you never succeeded." "Is that so?" the husband remarked. "I've kissed so maby "What's that?" What do you say?" the wife asked. "I say." said the husband, "I have kissed you so many times that I can't remember when I began."—Chatter.

Nigger is n*t, as generally supposed, a corruption of negro, but it is regularly developed from the earlier form of neger, which is derived through the French from the Spanish-Portuguse negro, from which the English negro is taken directly. Nigger is more English in form than negro and was formerly and to some extent is, still used without opprobrious intent but its use is now confined to colloquial or illiterate speech, in which it generally conveys more or less of contempt.

An American missionary from India says that there is a chance in Madras and Bombay for a number of bright, skilled American dentists. Madras il a city 300.000 population, and has not' a single American dentist. People sometimes travel from there to Bombay, nearly a thousand miles, in order to have a tooth filled. There is only one food dentist in Bombay, and he reuses to fill toeth with gold, using a sort of cement that is not lasting. He charges $7.50 for pulling a tooth.

There exist in the Canton province of China different kinds of sisterhoods, suoh as "All Pure" sisterhoods. "Never-to-be-married" sisterhoods, etc. Each sisterhood consists of about ten young maidens, who swear vows to heaven never to get "married, as they regard marriages as somethidg horrid, believing that their married lives would be miserable and unholy. A si\d case lately happened. A band of young maidens ended their existence in this world by drowning in tho Dragon River because one of them was to be forced by her parents to be married. She was engaged in her childhood before she joined this sisterhood. When the preparations for the marriage were completed she reported the matter to the sisterhood, and they all agreed to drown themselves, which they did.

Brought to Dear on the State's Witnesses, It Sorely Puzzle* Theui—Medical Points That Help ttie

Prisoner's Case. i" I am yours for cash

TIIE THIRD DAY'S DEVELOPMENTS. WOODSTOCK, Ont., Sept 25.—The third day of the great murder trial opened with the case looking decidedly black for Reginald Birchall. Every point in the damaging evidence advanced by the crown is being opposed with masterly skill by the defense, but the grim line of evidence remains unbroken. The defense so far has been extremely severe in cross-exam-inanion. What will be offered vhcu the defense opens its case remains a mystery. The terrible chain of evidence that is being forged by the proseeution appears to have no effect on Birchall and he listens impassively to fee witnesses.

The case opened with the introduction of medical testimony. Dr. Taylor, of Princeton, told of Benwell's wounds. He said both bullets passed through tho brain, either wound being sufficient to produce death that the wound in the back of the head was made first, and the bullet passed upward and forward that the hair near both wounds was singed, showing that the pistol was held close to the victim's head. The bullets were of 32-caliber. Death was instantaneous sp sudden that the heart'had stopped at the half beat The other organs of the body were in a healthy condition and there was nothing to cause death but the wounds on the head. These It was utterly impossible for the deceased to have inflicted on himself. In view of the attempt which the defense is expected to make to prove that th% body did not lie in the swamp during the storm of February 17, the day when Benwell was killed! Dr. Taylor was minutely examined as to the condition cf the body. lie said he believed that when found it had lain lfess than seven daj3 in the swamp—possibly four.

Mr. Blackstock succeeded in getting the doctor considerably confused and. made him contradict himself on several points. He led the doctor to say that thero was redness of the scalp under the wound, and afterward read to him his statement at the inquest that there was no such redness. The doctor had fixed the time the body was in the swamp at four days, and his statement at the inquest was read that it was less than a week. Mr* Black stock pressed the witness hard. The doctor was compelled to admit that under ordinary circumstances decomposition would begin in three days, but there was no decomposition when the body was found. This, however, be attributed to frost. At first sigifct the doctors thought the wounds on tie body were the result of decomposition, but afterward decided that they resulted from violence. His reason for considering that the wound on the body was inflicted just before or after death was mainly that the true skin was not affected.

Dr. Welford, of Woodstock, showed on the human skull positions of the two bullets on entering aud on their discovery in the young man's brain. Either would have caused instant dei\t^ The counsel for tho defense emphasized the fact that the deceased, though a man of small stature, was of such muscular development that he was unlikely to come off second beat in a struggle with an opponent of average weight The boots of the deceased were clean and marked as if from walking over sharp, hardBubstances, whereas at the time of the murder, and particularly in the swamp, there was mud and slush. The shirt did not bear the appearance of having' boon out in a rain or sleet-storm.

Pelly, Birthall's companion on the Atlantic voyag", was recalled and produced his revolver, to which reference had been made at a previous part of the proceedings, and said that it was larger than Bircball's. He also recognized as Birchall's several letters which were put in evidence, relating to the negotia- .\

tions carried on by the prisoner, to in duce himself (Pel'iy) and Benwell. to come to Canada.

The assessor and holders of other efficial positions about Niagara Falls testified that there was no truth in the prisoner's representations to Englishmen that he owned an extensive farm and other property within their districts. They knew him there n&ither under his right name nor under that of Somerset.

Meteorologists of the Dominion service were called to prove that here, eight miles from the. ^jvamp, thero was between the l-7th of February, when it is alleged tho murder took place, a*id February 21, when tho body was found, soft weather, followed by rain andsleet, and then winds and a light fall of drifting snow. This harmonizes in the main with the crown's theory that the prisoner is a guilty man.

Chief-of-Police Young, of Niagara Falls, testified that he had arrested the prisoner and identified Benwell's keys, pencil-case and other articles found on his person. He testified that Birchall when arrested in bed February 28 did not ask what the charge against him was or make any comment

The remainder of trhe evidence was devoted to prove that Birchall had been seen in and about the swamp hunting small game, and that he knew it well. One witness swore that he bad seen Birchall within ten rods of the spot wfcere the body was found. The case is expected to last to the end of the week and perhaps longer.

UNLUCKY MICHIGAN FABVtERS. ASHLAND, "Wis., Sept 25.—An Ashland man who has just returned from Huron County, Western Michigan, which was storm-swept ftew days ago, gives startling reports of the destitution which he says prevails among the losers by the storm. Tiie storm swept through a portion of country remote from any telegraph ofliae, the hail falling in elouds and covering the ground four to six inches 'deep. The track of the storm was through Sigol, •Bloom field and part of Paris townships, acftl covered an area of eighteen miles ,long by a mile wide. Crops were literally beaten into the earth. Many farmers in that section live on rented farms, which aggravates their sufferings, as they can not pay their rents. Besides they have nothing to live on. Many will be in danger of starving unless immediate help is given. The total loss in crops, stock, corn, etc., by the storm is estimated at $300,000.

HEAVY RAINS IN ARKANSAS. HELENA, Ark., Sept 25.—Tuesday evening this oity was visited by the most terrific and destructive rain-storm ever known in its history.

A veritable cloudburst occurred, and in an inoredibly short time the lower portion of the city was one vast sheet of water. Fences were swept away, sidewalks torn up and cellars inundated. The lower portion of the city was submerged and hundreds of people driven from their homes. The total rainfall the last three days ha? been 16 19-100 inches.
