Isaac Bridges is on trial at Torre Haute for the murder of s. Joseph Montgomery. whom he followed on the street and shot down while she was walking homeward from the theater, accompanied by a female friend. Mrs. Montgomery was the wife of a railroad man. She had been ruarrien three times, and was much older than Bridges. The plea of the defense is that the murdered woman cajoled him out of 31.000. to which ho had fallen heir, and after his money was gone made light of his infatuation and dismissed him. Mrs. Montgomery lived for ten days, and died without making a statement. Bridges disappeared, but on tho day she died he voluntarily Bur's:'. rendered himself at police headquarters.

AND THE HEART.

In his work on the senile hwvri Dr. Balfour tells t»« that there are two parts of the human organism, which, if I wisely used, "largely escape senile failure," says the Troy Times. Theso tw« are the brain and the heart. Person* who think have often wondered why brain workers, great statesmen and otbers, Bhould cont inuo to work with almost unimpaired mental activity and energy up to a period when most of the organs and functions of the body are in a condition of advanced senile decay. Thero is a physiological reason for this, and Dr. Balfonr tells us what it is. "The uormal brain," ho affirms, "remains vigorous to tho last," and that "because its nutrition is sp dally provided for." About middle •1' ora little later the general arteries of the bo4y begin to lose their elasticity :ndt« slowly but surely dilate. They be.-ome, therefore, much less efficient cai iers ot the nutrient blood to the eapi'.lary areas. But, this is not the ease with the internal crotids, which supply the cr miliary areas oft he brain. On the cont rary, those large vessels "continue to re-

toin their pristine elasticity, so that the

Nor was this done once, but repeatedly. The broad-gauge expresses arc /reqnently timed at the rate of a ruilc in forty-eight, seconds, or seventy-five miles an hour, and even a higher maximuin was attained for short distances.

The Uradshaw for 1S4S shows that the morning express was timed to leave l'addington at 9:50 o'clock and start again from Didcot at 10:4T. Allowing lour minutes for tho stop at Didcot the train must ha^u lx en ofllciallv timed at a mile a minute.

The railway records show that the traiu often arrived under time. These facts should silence a great many persons who prate about the phenomenal progress recently made in railroad matters in general and rapid transit in particular.

If anvbody were asked what enmparison exists beuveo.u the speed of rail-, road trains now and tifty years ago lie would probably say that hardly any can be made.

Tho difference, however, is far less than is generally supposed. In May, 18-18, tho Great Western railway engine Great Britain was driven by Engineer Almond from l'uddington to Didcot, fifty-three r#ilcs, in forty-seven inin•ut.es, starting and stopping. When we consider that the brakes in those days were very crude this is pretty faattrav-1 eling.

Atmarcl Old Ijaw Wlilcti Has Very I nciesiralilo Remilts. Dickons, who so often studied with delighted ftiterest the applieatian of English law to particular eases, would have, found a subject worthy of his grimfnest. humor in the fact, cabled recently from London, that when the master of a fishing smack, cruising near where the Kibe went down, saw tloat- j. Iiilt in the water a dead body, which was doubtless that of a victim of the great, disaster, lie made no effort to res- I cue it. from the waves and carry it ashore for identification and burial.

Instead he sailed past and away from the doleful bit of flotsam as ijuietly as circumstances would permit, nut, as one might, suppose, becaiiM* he was a particularly hard-hearted and cold- I lnoodeJ mariner, but because "recent-1 lj, after iding a body, he had been I forced to p.iy the funeral expanses." I Curious as that experience had been and delightfully illustrative as it was of "crowner's '.piest" wisdom-liie raptain had no inclination to repeat, it. One lesson had been enough t) teach him the great principle that, common sense cannot be allowed to interfere with consistency in the enforcement of a parliamentary act. and what, in coniparison with that, is the continued agoni/.ed uncertainty of some licrman I wife or mother?

The conditions of the army were very blue in the east and in the west., fianson came in one day and said: 'Mr. President. I am risking my reelection in supporting your war measures. The campaign m.m'vms very unsatisfactory. Of course ili not give out anything yon tell me What is the situation at the frunt?'

Washtsoton. March 21.—The prospect of serious complications which threatens the United States through probable European encroachment, on Venezuela and Nicaragua has assumed a phase of such danger to the principle laid down in the Monroe doctrine, that a special cabinet conference was held at the white house Wednesday a fternooti to consider the subject. There is no doubt whatever that these subjects are con-1 sidered by the president, and Secretary I Gresham as of much greater import to this countfry than the Allianea incident or the recall of Minister •••£.' 1 tou and ranst be handled with unusual delicacy and with

the knowledge that misstep may plunge the government into embarrassing complications with not one but sev-1 eral of the principal European nations. 50c, ill this sale.

The conference was attended by the president. Secretary Cresbam. Secretary Carlisle. Attorney General Olney and Seeretai'3' Lamont.. While the conference was necessarily of a strictly secret character, it is learned on good authority that no definite line of action was agreed to. 1 h« Nleariiffiian Sit mit itn.

Secretary Gresham took with him to the white house the official copies of much uf the recent correspondence on both the Venezuelan and the. Nicaraguan situations, and he remained with Mr. Cleveland some time after his colleagues had left. It cannot bo learned whether I any additional information in the matter reached tho state department

Wednesday, but it is said that. Mr. Hayard has failed to arrange the Mosquito troubles with the Mritish government in a ma.nuer satisfactory to the United States.

Great Kritain's ultimatum to Nicaragua demanding an indemnity for the expulsion of Mr. Hatch, the British consular agent, from Uluefields. and the report that a liriti.-.h warship is on her way to enforce th» demand isthe latest known t-eriuus phase uf the difficulties growing out of the Minefields affair. and as action by this government may involve a new construction of the. .Monroe doctrine, it can he seen how slo.vly and carefully the president and his advisers are obliged to feel their way to prevent any possibility of blunder or to neglect any advantages tJiat might weaken the practical sponsorship which the United States government holds fiver the South American and Central American republics.

Tl»« Strong A!vcrnarlvR. '''I:

In the eneznelan affair, the United Slates government finds itself opposed such strong adversaries as Great Hritain. 1-ranee and Germany, with Helgium as an incidental factor. The settlement, of the claim of Great Hritain to certain Venezuelan territory is the main cause for alarm, and to this is added the prospect that Germany will send warships to collect a large amount of money guaranteed German contractors for the construction of the Centra! Venezuela railroad. France and Helginm have a common ground for act ion disturbing to the peace of the. little South American republic, namely: The expulsion of the French and Kelgium ministers from that country. Iloth governments have strongly protested "against the expulsion and France will send a naval vessel to take their envoys lionnr. The Monroe doctrine and its ramifications contain ample aut hority, it is said, for the United States to display an active interest in the threatening attitude of Great Mritain and

Germany, and while the probable action of France and Belgium does not seemingly come wiihiu the ecnitt ql tint, doctrine,
