PITTSBURG, March 16. The judgment of ;B9,140 which Mrs. Ada N. Dow-Currier ob,talned last year against David Henderson, manager of the Chicago Opera House and ;the Duquesne Theater, Pittsburg, for alkcu injuries suriereu nv Deintr strucK on the head by. a piece of batting from the ' 'nf rha flimikmik riciff 'V'.w V.1r if Henderson received 'the information to-night, and stated that the case will be carried to jthe Court, of Appeals of New York. He fur-' ".ther stated that Julia Marlowe and Ariel ,23araey; , who was Miss Marlowe's manager .at, the time the aceldent occurred, In 18S9, .had signed papers to protect him against Rny possible damage suits that might arise In the future. He (Henderson) was paying all convalescent expenses and doctor . bills until Mrs. Dow-Currier ws discharged as .cured. This agreement was accepted toy .Miss Marlowe and Mr. Barney as payment in full for all damages, and, according to tAriel Barney and Mlsa Marlowe, was so accepted by Mrs. Dow-Currier. "The facta of the accident are as follows," aald Mr. Henderson "She was -with Miss Marlowe as an aunt or companion. Mr. Currier was stage manager. Mrs. Dow was on the stage when she had no business to be there. She was- ordered off repeatedly by - my stage manager, who feared that she might be hit with scenery. She refused to go. A piece of batting caught in the fiiee, struck 'her on the head and knocked her insensible. She was carried to the hospital. I was threatened with a law suit by , her manager, Ariel Barney, whose counsel was Robert G. .Ingersoll, who at that time took strong Interest . In Miss Marlowe. Rather than get into any litigation with 'Mi. Ingersoll I consented to compromise. 1 agreed to pay all doctors' bills and all convalescent expenses until sne was discharged as cured, and Miss Marlowe and Mr. Barney agreed to protect me from any further claim that might be made. I engaged -Dr. Ilea, of Chicago, one of the sost noted physicians of the Western country, to attend her. She was discharged as cured. My bills for her convalescence and doctor's fees amounted to something like $2,X)0. ""Three or four months after she was discharged as cured she married Mr. Currier, who formerly had been the stage manager for Miss Marlowe. Two or three months after that she went to Australia with - a trunk of manuscripts and produced plays. When the trial came up last May before Judge Barnard, in New York, he disregarded all the agreements that had been made between myself, the star and her manager. There was not a bit of evidence to show that she had been sick for a moment, from the time she had been discharged as cured. From that time she was busily engaged In producing plays, managing companies and performing work, of a very wide-awake manager. Just be.ore the trial she staged As You Like It' for the Woman's League and achieved quite a success. "Of course," said Mr. Henderson, "the case will be taken to the Court of Appeals."

Logansport people have been discussing in surprised tones to-day the actloa of the Legislature 4n abolishing the water works boards. Senator Vail's bill was amended to apply to all towns having a population ieas than 14,000, and this escaped the attention of Senators Collett and O'Brien and Representatives Longwell, Stutesman and Nicholson. The result is that Peru, Kokomo, Logansport and other towns coming within the provisions have no legal water works boards.

Some Thoughts SuKKested by nn Inspection ttl Seed Catalogues. Boston Transcript. ' Ever since the days of Adam, at least, mankind has been divided into two classes: those who garden and -those who do not. Adam's ancient guild has always been popular, and it seems no less so now in this latter end of the nineteenth century than when Semiramis if she it was planned and built the famous gardens of Babylon; or Pliny indited letters to his friends from Tusculum and Laurentina: or Bacon, and Walpole, and Addison, and Evelyn wrote delightfully of gardens or gardening in England. The tribe is. indeed, both large and increasing, and- now, at the dawning of the season, is already Impatient to be afield with its partner, the sun, who, returned from his wanderings, is now so high in the heavens as to have settled already the fate of winter. , Doubtless to the unsympathetic eye there is little in the alternate mud and ice of earliest spring to indicate the opening of the season. But those in the secret know very well that there is much to be thought of and some things to be done, even before the bluebird or the song sparrow venture to make their first appearance among us. There is, -for instance, the careful planning and arrangement of the coming campaign, the selection of seeds and plants, orders to be sent to nurserymen, and the starting In boxes of such seeds as require a long season before maturing. Things press forward with such rapid strides, when once the happy moment for actually taking the field arrives, that unless a well-digested plan Is ready in hand, the hurry and stress of work are not unlikely to cause some blunders and more or less confusion. The elaborate catalogues, so abundantly forwarded by the seedsmen at this time, not only serve to hint at the duties of the hour, but furnish helpful lists of things to be considered and provided for. One may profitably recall the results of last year s operations, and possibly thereby Improve upon the selection of crops, the proportions of each cr the order in which it is desirable to have them mature. The mistakes of one season may indicate the path to success the next. Some things, like peas and corn, are capable of successive ripenings through a long season if properly managed, and these should be ."pre-ordained to afford their treasures in the most : convenient order,, wasting neither time nor space in the garden, but coming forward for the table at their very best, in such quantities only as can be well disposed of from day to day. The appearance of the garden may also be. a legitimate matter of consideration when the - summer campaign is being planned, and perhaps charted upon paper. Especially' jVjhenhe .plot is not well .concealed from general view should this be thought of. It is often quite feasible so to arrange, things that the ground will be cither covered or well screened from sight

by growing crops, one succeeding another, until ate in autumn. Bl-looking bare spaces or those occupied only by the wrecks and ruins of the earlier crops, which often needlessly render the place unsightly and even melancholy after midsummer, are thus never allowed to offend the eye. And there is also a certain aesthetic value to , mot of our garden plants, notably in the tali, ,

gracerui maize, tne cnmDing wans peas, the broad-leaved and great-flowered members of the squash tribe, etc, which, though seldom availed of, certainly offers snm nnnortimltv f or . ffort in the line of landscape gardening, for the accomplish- : ment of pleasing effects ana tne cuiuvauon of the love of beauty, even In the hosable domain of the vegetable garden. MERCHANTS ARE FIRM SAY THE WHITE SCREWMEX OF XEW ORLEAXS 511 ST SIRREXDER. Right to Work on the Levee Must Be Open to Everybody Militia Still on Duty Guarding Xegroes. NEW ORLEANS, March 16. The labor situation here remains unchanged to-day. The colored screwmen were at work today, under the protection of the State troops, on the foreign steamers which are loading cotton, and there was no attempt on the part of" their white rivals to interfere with them In any way. Numbers of tne whites remain idle, but their time j is spent in haunts on the side streets, and they avoid as much as possible appearing. on the levee. There was no formal attempt to effect a settlement of the trouble to-day. The white screwmen held several meetings in secret, but tc-night showed no sign of being aboyt. to recede from the position they have taken. ' The merchants committee was also In ses-. slon, but its business was mainly to raise fund3 for the support of the ti-oops. The merchants refuse to treat with the screwmen, and say that they will be satisfied with nothing less than an absolute surrenderthe acknowledgment of the right of every man, irrespective of color, to .work on the levee. The Governor remains in the city, but has had no conference with either committee to-day. It is likely to be seveial days before the efforts to reach a settlement are renewed seriously. There Is no work along the shore on Sunday and the troops will be allowed to rest to-morrow. Unuer the constant protection afforded by their presence the negroes have grown holder and many to-day were willing to go to work betore the militia put in an appearance, otiiers, however, feared to oo so, and the ship captains themselves forbade a start until the troops were in position. Unless all expectations fail there will be several new companies pf :imiiitia on the levee front on Monday morning. Late this afternoon it was ascertained that Governor .Foster had been In communication with several of the country . commands looking toward having them come to the city and do duty on the river front. It is said that he received favorable replies from the . troops stationed at Uonaldsonvllie, New Iberia and Monroe. This action was taken by the Governor in order that the "befys" from the city would have a chance of getting back to their work, which has been neglected for the past three days. The only incident worth mentioning happening on the river to-day was the sailing this afternoon at 5 o'clock of the steamship Niagara for Galveston in order to take on a load of cotton. The Niagara was one of the ships attacked by the rioters last Tuesday. At that time she was discharging her cargo and after the riot her captain said that as soon as his vessel's hold had been cleared of . freight, he would put to sea, as he did not care to risk another experience like that of last Tuesday. Accordingly he consulted with the agents of the line and through them secured a cargo at Galveston for his vessel. Whether tne Niagara will give this port a wide berth in the future cannot be stated, but her- captain said he would not return here until there was no further danger either to his ship or his men at work on it. , The, police this afternoon found another victim of last Tuesday's riot about whom nothing was known. He was. William Miller, a negro. He was found at his home, No. 290 Third street, suffering from a severe wound in his right leg. He had -been shot with a Winchester. He stated that he was on the levee at the time the rioters mado their "appearance and that he was shot while running. His wound is painful, but not dangerous. SUFFERINGS OF SAILORS. Harrowing; Story of a Survivor of the Lost British Yeemnn. MARSHFIELD, Ore., March 16. Daniel Clark and Thomas Moore, supposed to be the only survivors of a crew of thirty-one persons from the British ship Yeeman, arrived here last night on the schooner Leeds. The Yeeman sank Feb. 23 in latitude thirtyfour north, longitude forty-five west. She was bound from Antwerp to - Redondo. Clark related the details as follows: "While shortening sail there was a sudden squall and a heavy swell, like a tidal wave, struck us, capsizing the ship. As the sea swept the deck I was carried overboard. A lull followed and the ship righted. I got on the ship again to find no deck. The cook was lying In the galley with his head split open and hardly alive. Capt. Ferguson and mate were drowned. As the ship was sinking I decided to abandon her and cut-loose a life boat from the davits, got the cook Into it and pulled off. We were fourteen days in the boat before the schooner Leeds sighted us and picked us up. During this time we suffered more than language can express. We had to fare all the . time on sixteen biscuits without a drop of .fresh water. We ate two biscuits apiece a day until they were exhausted and we drank salt water. This made our mouths and throats as raw as a beefsteak. We could not speak our names and our eyes were swollen shut. We were so hungry that weate the uppers of our ; shoes and sucked blood from each other." Here Clark exhibited his leg, which' showed great red blotches, certifying the truthfulness of his story. Continuing, he said: "I have been around the Horn nine times, but this was the roughest trip I ever experienced. We lost four men overboard in a gale off the Horn, and Paul Hessing fell from the topsail yard and was killed." Movements of Steamer. NEW YORK, March 16.

The Normal Shaped Foot la the Hand, omeit After All. Shoe and Leather Facts. "The nearer the normal shape of our feet we wear our shoes," says a veteran shoe man, "the better. If our feet have been distorted by improper shoes, the shoes should not conform to the distortions (anatomical shoemakers to the contrary notwithstanding), but should be made the correct shape, but of sufficient size to allow for and to accommodate the -distortions, so that the feet will have a chance or opportunity in the shoe to come back to their normal shape. The exercise of walking In a correct-shaped shoe will bring a distorted foot back to its normal shape, provided the distortion has not been of too long standing. The more we walk in an ill-shaped shoe the more distorted our feet will become. f'The normal-shaped foot, no matter how large It may be, is far handsomer than any distorted foot, no matter how small. In the normal-shaped foot the phalangial bones of each toe lie in a straight line with, the metatarsal bones-of the foot, to which Ihey are respectively articulated. Any straight lines drawn lengthwise through the phalangial bones of each toe and the metatarsal bones to which they are respectively articulated and backward will all .come out at one and the same point the center of the heel and radiate from that center like spokes from the hub of a wheel. What is wanted is a good fit and a shoe that conforms to the natural shape of the foot." KmpreH Josephine' Appearance. Prof. Sloane, in the Century. She had ' thin brown hair, a complexion neither fresh nor faded, expressive eyes, a small retrousse nose, a pretty mouth and a voice that charmed all listeners. She was rather undersized, but her figure was so perfectly proportioned as ; to give the impression of height and suppleness. Its charms were scarcely concealed by the clothlru? she wore, made as it was in the suggestive fashion of the tiny, with no support to the form but a belt, and as scanty about her shoulders as It was about her shapely feet. It appears to have been her elegance and her manners as well as her sensuality, which overpowered Bonaparte; for he described her' as having "the calm and dignified demeanor which, belongs in the old regime. . . 'Origin of jhe Itionne.' ' Lipplncott'a Magazine. - After the fall of the Roman empire the sexes started about fair in the matter of clothes. .Our Teutonic ancestors adopted a costume which was almost the same for men and women, and consisted of two main garments, the Roman tunica and toga. The tunica was virtually a. skirt ' with long sleeves, and was buckled at the wal3t. The men wore it reaching to the knee, and the women to the ankles.' In colder northern latitudes the men, as a great innovation, added trousers, but these were looked upon in the light of a distinct extra, and were net considered obligatory in hot weather. There seems to be no doubt that the blouse of the modern peasant is a direct descendant of the tun'ca. " Mexican .olcs. CITY OF MEXICO. March 16.
