The former was a ' resident of Carroll county, the latter of ' ' ItussJavllle, this county. Four years later Mr. Cassady went to Rush county to collect the money on a farm he had sold. He collected WOO, tout never returned to his wife. The news was sent out that he had been robbed and murdered. Many evidences of the truth of the story came to i the ears of the supposed widow, and without the formality of a divorce she married her second husband, Alexander Hughes, a prominent and wealthy farmer. Hughes died a few years ago, and the woman be-; canie, as she thought, the second time a widow. Recently she became Involved in a lawsuit with, the. Hughes " Jieirs for the widow's portion of the ,-.- estate. At the trial the , astonishing evidence was produced that her first husband was etill alive, and was now living, In ', SShelby county. Confronted with this testimony the woman's claim to the Hughes estate was left without a leg" to stand on, rind the case was compromised. Yesterday Irs. Hughes, in the name of Mrs. Cassady, brought suit for divorce, and the papers jt "were sent to -Shelby county for service on 1 hi defendant, who for more than a nuarTtr of a century was supposed to be dead. .As a result of this unusual state f affairs, no end of lawsuits over the property sire expected to follow among the children wf the different marriages.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind.. April 7. When the , ppraisers took an Inventory of the property of Mrs. Hannah Rolf, who died some days ago, thay found that the old woman, . who for years had labored with her husband . on a garden truck farm near the city and who appeared to be on the verge of abject poverty, was in fact worth $40,000 in her own name. They found in her room $1,3C0 1n cash and notes, together with mortgages which they appraised at $24,030. The re--malnder of her property consisted of real estate. There was also a certificate of deposit for $4,000 in the Beach Bank which failed in August, 1891 A week before her death Mrs. Rolf went to the home of the Jate John B. Meyer, whom she had supplied with vegetables for many years, and said that she was afraid her husband would kill her. The two lived on a small farm at the edge of the city. She was sixty-five years old and he a few years older. It interns that for many years the wife had Insisted on receiving the .proceeds or the ale of her share of what was produced and she kept her money separate and secretly Invested. A month ago she discovered that she had consumption and that ehe would live but a short time. Then, according to her story, her husba-nd began threatening to take her life.

She made a will just before she died and bequeathed to him one-third of her estate. The remainder was given to her si3ter who lives in Germany. The husband was thought to be insane and was placed in charge of a guarian by the court. He is believed to toe worth $35,000 or $30,000 in his own right. MURDERED HIS SON-IN-LAW.

Mr. Ochiltree's Lecture. Worthington (Ind.) Times. The last of the Worthinston lecture course waa delivered by J. C. Ochiltree, the well-known journalist of Indianapolis. His subject was "The Social Problem" or "Evolution vs. Revolution," and Mr. Ochiltree amply proved his qualification to speak on that important subject on Tuesday evening, when he faced a fairly large, and decioedly select audience. Mr. Ochiltree is an optimist from his heart, and the concise and trenchant manner in which he dealt with the theories of the apostles of socialism, socalled labor agitators; "et hoc genus omne," abundantly proved that he has fathomed the sophistry of these gentry, and sustained the greater profundity and stability of his own position. His designation of pessimism, too, was by no means vague or irdefinite; for he roundly scored it and its advocates. We observe with satisfaction that our contemporaries of Indianapolis have noticed this lecture at length; and we feel assured that ail who were present will admit that it richly deserves such notice. The thanks of our community are due Mr. Ochiltree for his scholarly elucidation of a much vexed problem. To Build a Sew Masonic Temple.

Here I do my editing and the other things that are purely journalistic; at home 1 do my literary work and my reading.

AGAINST FREE SILVER

SENATOR PALMER WILL NOT INDORSE THE ILLINOIS CALL. State Committee Had No Authority to Issue Such a Paper, and 1) cm- .- ocrats Will Not Back It. SPRINGFIELD, HI., April " 7. Senator John M. Palmer does not approve of the action of the Democratic State centnl committee in calling a monetary convention to meet here June 4. He says it was an unwise move and does not represent the sen timent of Illinois Democracy. In an inter view to-day he said: "Even if the authority of the committee, to call a convention for the purpose indicated was admitted the present call is highly Injudicious. This is an off year in politics and no immediate party action Is possible. The Congress elected In 1892 by the Democrats repealed the purchasingclause of the Sherman act and did other work in harmony with Democratic opinion, including a call for an International monetary conference. The President and Secretary of the Treasury by a wise and discreet exercise of lawful powers have maintained the public credit and the receipts of the treasury, under the operation of Democratic legislation, are largely increasing. Nothing more is neceessary to the return of prosperity to the country than that Democratic policies be allowed to accomplish their beneficial results. It is true the people are suffering under conditions not produced by any act of the Dem. ocratic party, yet they held it responsible and the result has been astounding defeat In the late election. "The most humiliating fact is that the gentlemen who lately assembled here, claiming to be representatives of the Dem. ccratic party, refused to await the result of Democratic policies on the interests of the country. They proceeded to call a con vention, which will meet at least a year before the party in the State will have any occasion to act effectively for the purpose as they avow, of committing the party to free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of. 16 to 1. In other words, the so-called Democratic State committee prepared to call a convention to commit the party i to silver monometallism and make that disturbing, dangerous dogma the single article in the political creed of the Democracy of Illinois. "You ask if the Democracy of the State will acquiesce in the action of the State convention which declares free and unlimited coinage at the ratio of 16 to 1 an article of Democratic faith. I nns.wer it will not. All Democrats, so far as I know their views, are anxious to extend the usefulness of silver as a money metal; some believe free coinage on the present ratio would bring about this result. Another class do not believe it. They want a dollar of silver to be made the standard of value and the legal tender. If they believed free coinage of silver would produce a dollar of equal usefulness as a gold dollar they would not object to the free coinage of silver. They care nothing about the disturbance in values which free coinage would certainly produce; they will take part in the convention, but the great body of Democratic party men who believe the party still represents, in the highest degree, devotion to constitutional liberty and protection of individual rights under just and equal laws; maintenance of public and private credit on the basis of existing values, or as values may be affected by business changes and conditions, will take no part In the convention called by the State committee. These men will unite and preserve Democratic organization in the State. They will neither be transferred by chattels to the silver party, nor be driven out of the Democratic party by the action of a convention called by the State committee to sanction the. abandonment of Democratic principles." . Straight Republican Party. (RALEIGH, N. C, April 7. A large number of Influential North Carolina Republicans are starting a movement for a. straight Republican party, and calculate on getting in their ranks many Populists. Both the Republican and Populist State chairmen admit that they expect a realignment of their parties. The silver question is to mark the line of division.' . -rT-t - -""nm iimH Piled l"p by the Northeaster at Menominee, Mich. MENOMINEE. Mich., April 7.

The Ann Arbor track between the slip and the St. Paul track is covered with Ice in some places twenty feet high, completely cutting off traffic in the yards, while more or less damage has been done to warehouses, barns and boat houses. Should the wind continue long from the present quarter the damage to property will be great. The body of the ice extends out into the bay a distance of twenty or thirty miles and Is from twelve to sixteen inches thick. Copions Rains in the West. OMAHA, Neb., April 7. From all parts of the State messages have been received, telling of the heavy rains and snow and the consequent happiness of the farmers and business men. Songs of praise are especially going up from every heart of the drought-stricken region of last year. 1 here the rain has been the most abundant. rom Nuckols county west, taking in the vast area covered by the counties of Adams. Webster, Franklin, Kearney, Harlan, Buffalo, Dawson, Phelps, Furnas, Frontier Red Willow, Lincoln, Hayes, Hitchcock, Chase, Dundy, Perkins and Keith, and In fact, across the State ta the northern boundary the precipitation has been sufficient to satisfy all. The dried-up counties along- the Kansas, Colorado and South Dakota borders have been wet to an extent in excess of any experienced in two years. In the northwestern counties ten inches of snow has fallen, greatly delaying railroad traffic. Bigr an Hen Ekr', nt Least. ATHENS, Ga., April 7. This section of Georgia was visited by two destructive hailstorms within the past twenty-four hours. Hailstones as large as hen eggs descended and wrought great damage to fruit and garden plants. The rain fell heavily and was accompanied by a strong wind. Particulars as to the true extent of the damage are meager, but it is thought the storm will prove to be one of the worst that has occurred in years. AVeather Bureau. Figures. C. F. R.

The Tribune has. the following from Washington: One of the justices of the Supreme Court practically admitted after . the consultation Saturday that the abstract of the decision in the income tax case printed in tne Tribune, was absolutely correct and tallied with the printed copies furnished the judges early Friday, evening. ; He alleged, however, the ffirtnl&; iSlSertuccessfuuy put two and two together and arrived at a result practically correct. Whether the judges had done anything to change the decision at their meeting Saturday afternoon he would not say, of course, further than to admit the publication of the decision had become known to the judges. Case May Be Reopened. NEW YORK, April 7..-A special to the World from Washington says: An extraordinary conference of the justices of the United States Supreme . Court was held to-day to consider the income tax appeals. Chief Justice Fuller's rough draft was further discussed and the decision is reported to have been reopened for arguments on certain features,- This has given rise to the impression that the ueadlock on the main points of the statute may be broken or the decision withheld for additional modification. ... TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. Hon. R. P. Bland has again been compelled to postpone his lecture tour in Colorado and Montana on account of continued poor health. . Mrs. John Cotey and three-year-old child, near Merrill, Wis., were burned to death by beiryr enveloped by the flames from a pot of pitch which the woman was boiling for gum. Robert P.

What a handful of dry goods a woman has to grab nowadays when she wants to cross a muddy street or steer clear of a puddle. The voluminous skirt is certainly fashionable everybody wears it; It may be beautiful there are those who say so; but it isn't comfortable to hold up. And, although dress skirts are by no means the trailing, training things that they were not long ago; yet they're still sufficiently lengthy to cause untold discomfort. It's absolutely necessary to lift them on occasion, particularly if the occasion be muddy, and yet this requires much muscular strength, and involves no inconsiderable fatigue. It was hard enough to have to hold up dress skirts when they were but three and four yards in width, but now that the circumference of them measures eight or nine, it has become a trial and a torture. And under no circumstances or conditions, whatever the skirt's wld,th or length, does a woman look graceful or elegant as she grabs at her back breadths. The City Pitfalls. New Y'ork Weekly.

REMINISCENCES OF THE PRINCE'S PIBLIC AND PRIVATE CAREER. The Revolution Which He Wrought In the Old Diplomacy by His Blunt, Straightforward Methods. London Letter in New York Evening Post. Perhaps the chief trait of Bismarck's genius Is to be found in his entire freedom from preconceived notions, and in the limpldness of his mind, which . refused to submit to accepted fallacies. This tendency in early age, earned for him, of the dull pedantry and prim Philistines around him, the sobriquet of "Tolle Bismarck" the mad Bismarck; but later on it resulted in the complete demolition of the old system of diplomacy. For equivocation and downright falsehood his powerful intellect substituted a kind of outrageous frankjiess, which bewildered and outwitted his adversaries. Nothing, however, marks his strong personality more vividly than the intense hatreds and the blind devotions with which he has surrounded himself. He had the courage to be himself, tho power to rely upon himself, and to look at things in the face; while his keen sense of humor enabled him to see clearly the vast array of sham and pompous pretences of public and private life. Never had madness more method than is shown by the originality of this strange being, half Mephlstopheles, half dragoon, who, before subduing to his iron will the whole of European diplomacy, shocked and horrified the fogies of the old school with the inuendoes and insinuations, the sarcasms and stories, the gibes and jokes, which he flung at their heads mercilessly and continually. . The wigged and powdered pomp which covered diplomatic pretense and mendacity was torn aside the instant that Prince Bismarck got a grip of political realities, and his first appearance among the dignified excellencies of the German Diet constituted a veritable revolution. The incident of his early relations with these empty-headed "importants . sans importance" offer perhaps the most racy of the many anecdotes related in Prince Bismarck's own words in many case by his Boswell, his faithful secretary. Dr. Morltz Busch. His first encounter at Frankfort was with his hostler, who, like all the good burghers of the Free City at that time, was Intensely anti-Prussian. The old hotel where he put up, as Prussian delegate to the Diet, was not provided with a complete system of bells, and Bismarck asked for a hund bell at least, wherewith to communicate with his valet. But he was gruffly told there was. none to spare, and that he must shift for himself. Early next morning the loud report of a pistol set all the guests in a panic, with the exception of Bismarck's servant, who explained that, as no bell was forthcoming, nis master had summoned him by pistol shot. Five minutes later the desired bell was placed within Bismarck's reach. The story of the cigar which, in fact, decided the status of Prussia in the German Bund, which, till then, had been traditionally ruled by the representative of the Austrian Kaiser, has been told too often, and too recently, to bear repetition now. That first historical Havana, so boldly lit in the federal committee room, was the herald of the revolution consummated at Konlggratz. In fact, the character, training and traditions of the men opposed to Bismarck were such as to collapse on the first impact with his own iron frame. The methods he employed were as various as they were ingenious, but absurdly simple and always admirabley adapted to attain their object. The Cabinet Noir was then a recognized institution under Austrian supremacy. But Bismarck's dispatches were tne only ones that evaded it. One of his colleagues was curious to know how he succeeded in this, and, as another authority relates, was allowed to accompany Bismarck on a walk towards the outskirts of the town. There he entered into a small variety store and asked for an envelope; and, pretending that his "SlGTea hand was 'bruised, he requested the attendant to write a certain private Berlin address on the envelope. In it he ini'i'td. his . rnnfidential dispatches, and throwing if in the posi, this, ' he said, "is one of the mean3 i employ; and what, with the rustic writing of tne address,, the fingered envelope and the smell of sardines which pervaaes it, I defy the keenest Austrian nose to divine what It contains." AN ACCURATE ESTIMATE. He had taken the full measure of the men of whom he spoke as "Austrian diplomats of the old school, who had no call to tell the truth." Of one of them, the Baron Osten Prokesch, a luminary of that firmament, he says: "Prokesch was a regular Oriental intriguer, absolutely indiiferent to truth. One evening that we were together at a party somebody spoke of tho inaccuracy of an Austrian official statement. Upon this Prokesch, .raising his voice so that I could not but hear, said: 'This must be true. Were it not, I, speaking on behalf of the imperial royal government, should hav been telling a lie.' While uttering this he looked pointedly . at me. I looked at him, replying, 'No doubt, your Excellency. He was alarmed, and finding, us ne glanced around, all present with eyes cast down, he left the apartment and went to the dining room. Atter dinner he had recovered the shock. He came up to mc, glass in hand I certainly should have expected a challenge had it not been toh the glass and said, 'Well, let us make peace." 'With pleasure,' I said, 'but the minutes of the sitting you wot of must be altered.' He smiled as he observed, 'You are incorrigible.' However, ' the minutes were altered, which implied the recognition of the falsehood uttered." In his dealings with the petty German princelings he was just as roughly direct and frank. The best story of this class relates to the Duke of Augustenburg, whom it may be said Bismarck had "discovered" and set up as pretender of Schleswig-Hol-stein, thereby Initiating that marvellous political and military game which culminated at the crowning scene at Versailles. Speaking of Augustenburg, Just about that time (1870), he says with inimitable sarcasm . nd nonchalance: "I met him a day or two ago In the camp in his Bavarian uniform. He might have done better, and been a sovereign, had he made us the requisite concessions. What I wanted of him was no more than what all the minor princes conceded to Prussia In 1S66. But he would not yield an iota of the sovereign rights he expected us to acquire for him. Thank goodness, the pettifogging wisdom of his advisers prevented him. I remember having a conversation with him one evening in 1864. We were in my billiard room and sat late into the night. I began by addressing him as his Highness, and was altogether very courteous. On my telling him we wanted Kiel harbor he was rather taken aback, and asked whether we actually claim a whole square mile. 1 could but say 'yes. After this I discovered that he objected even to our demand of military control. Upon this I changed my tone, called him Serenity (Durchlaucht) instead of Highness (Hoheit), and in the end, lapsing into Low German, quickly told him there waa nothing to hinder our wringing the neck of the chicken we had hatched ourjelves." This radical difference in temper and mode of dealing was most strikingly noticeable In his relations with French diplomacy with that of Napoleon III more especially. With a frankness amounting almost to cynicism Prince Bismarck has admitted how narrowly his policy escaped disaster in 18S6 and has placed it on record that the French Emperor might easily have seized, the Rhenish provinces. "It is true I did tell the Duke (of Beauffremont In 1867) that if the Emperor Napoleon had had a keener perception of his own advantage he might have done a stroke of business in 1866. If the Emperor, at the moment of our attacking Austria, had taken by force what he subsequently demanded through Benedettl, he might have done better for himself. At least I should not have been able to stop him; nor is it likely that England would have interfered. What he had to do was to act and see what would come of It. If we were victorious his safest policy would have been to support us and lure us forward into the intoxication of triumph. But the man Is and ever was a Tiefenbacher." Tiefenbacher was an Austrian general In Wallenstein's . times, whose name ha3 passed into the German language as synonymous with a character of apparent cunning and abi'.'ty, tout in reality hesitating and sluggish, and Prince Bismarck stated on another occasion that from his first acquaintance with Louis Napoleon he felt persuaded that his assumed reserve concealed only incapacity and weakness of purpose. DEALING WITH FRENCHMEN. The war of 1870 presented fewer risks as the world now knows than Prince Bismarck's earlier ventures. That he risked much he has admitted, but he haa also told us what he would have done had his ventures collapsed. Speaking of the Duc'de Grammont, whose Incompetence precipitated the war with France, he aid: "If I had fcen In hiH place I should have ntered a regiment ana taken my chance

Though more manly and dignified than M. Favre. he is altogether unfit for the trade. He came to me as a negotiator, when he had not gumption enough, for a. horse dealer. He is easily staggered, and shows it. Y'ou can worm out of him whatever you like. I actually made him betray that Paris had full provisions only for three or four weeks more. When in the negotiations for peace I asked for some more concessions from M. Thiers, my interlocutor, losing his habitual self command, cried out, 'Mais e'est une indignite.' Upon this I quickly assumed the German tongue, explaining what I wanted. Thiers listened composedly, not knowing what to think. After a while he said, in dolorous tones, 'Mais, M. le Comte, vous savez bien qui je ne suls point l'Allemand.' I 'replied in French, 'When, a few minutes ago. you uttered the ; wora indignity. I discovered that I did not know enough French to go on in that language, and so preferre a German, where I know exactly what I say and what others say.' M. Thiers understood me and made the concession he had just been designating indignity." After France was laid low. and especially after Russia embarked' in her exhausting struggle with Turkey, Prince Bismarck's influence in Europe was supreme. No one has forgotten the piteous appeals which the Times addressed to the Prince, in a memorable article, to prevent that war. "One word from him would stop Russia. Let Prince Bismarck only speak, and there will be an end of Russian resolutions to occupy Bulgaria." But he remained unmoved. For, while the free hand he allowed Russia was deemed to have been the price of her moral support In 1870, he was actually strengthening the security of Germany by allowing Russia to exhaust herself. His power and prestige was, therefore, at its height at the congress of Berlin, and although age had mellowed the harsher aspects of his character and the vivacity of his spirits had become tempered. His mots of that period which will remain perhaps the most memorable and lasting are tne comparison of a war between England and Russia to the fight between a whale and an elephant; valuing the Eastern question at the price of the bones of a Pomeranian grenadier; the "Honest broker and the "beati possidentA." They all place in relief the active, ardent and penetrating intellect of a master mind, a mind of gigantic force, which, has imprinted itself upon an epoch and has traced out a new and a healthier course for those who learn the ancient art of diplomacy. STRANGE ANTIPATHIES. People Entertain Dislikes for AVhlch They Can Give No Good Reason. London Standard. "'. Like the hyterical patient who suffers pain wdthout any apparent cause, the man with an antipathy can render no firm rea son why he dislikes the particular thing which he does. It may be, perhaps, that he is unable to abide a gaping pig, perchance he shows a marked disinclination to remain in the same apartment with the harmless necessary cat, or the music of the bagpipe is more than he can stand. Yet no matter what shape the antipathy takes it is usually a genuine dislike, and one that causes a considerable rimount of mental suffering and physical pain to the person who is afflicted in this particular way. Great, Indeed, must have been the annoy.ance which James I suffered on account of his Inability to get over the weakness of being unable to look on a naked sword. So great an aversion had he to cold steel that Sir Kenelm Digby relates that when he was knighted at Hichenbrooke, near Huntingdon, the King, in order to avoid seeing the sword, turned his face away and- nearly wounded him. pennant, the eminent traveler and explorer, had a great aversion to wigs, which, unfortunately, was always transferred to the wearer of the offending headgear for the time being. Once, in the presence of the Mayor of Chester, who was wearing a high-powdered wig. Pennant was observed to grow quite excited and nervous. After making strong remarks about the Mayor to a companion he appears to have lost all control over his feelings, and, rushing at the unfortunate Mayor, pulled off his wig. and ran with it out of the house, and down the street, pursued by that ' civic functionary, to the great delight of the populace. From this curious race sprang the local expression, "The Mayor and Mr. Pennant's tour through Chester." Peter the Great, though he wrote a treatise upon things naval, and laid the foundation of a Russian navy, could not, it is said, bear the sight or sound of running water. This antipathy was so strong that he could not walk in the palace gardens because they were watered by the River Mosera. while he would not ford over the smallest brook, nor even cross over a bridge, unless the windows of his carriage were closed, and even then he suffered from cold perspirations. Flowers and fruit, it would seem, have affected some people in remarkable ways. Thus, It is reported of Uladeslaus, King of Poland, that he could not bear to see apples; while Chesne, secretaryto Francis I, always bled at the nose on seeing this fruit. Greby, the composer, and Anne of Austria could not stand the sight of roses, and Amatus Lusitanius mentions the case of a monk who always fainted when he set eyes on a rose, and never quitted his cell when these flowers were blooming. Zimmerman, the naturalist, speaks of a lady who could not bear to touch silk, satin or the velvety skin of the peach. One of the Earls of Barrymore considered the Innocent pansy an abomination: the unfortunate Princess Lambajle looked upon the violet as a thing of horror; Scaliger, the critic, turned pale at the sight of watercress, and neither he nor Peter Abono could ever touch milk. La Mothe de Veger could not endure the sound of any musical instrument, although he was fond of thunder; while it was said of Cardan, the Italian Jurist and physician, that the mere sight of eggs made him feel ill, and that when those comestibles were placed upon the table he was forced to get up and leave the room. Boyle, the philosopher, one of the founuers of the Royal Society, declared that the sharpening of a knife or the tearing of brown paper In his presence never failed to make his gums bleed, and the same indisposition attacked a gentleman of the court of the Emperor Ferdinand whenever he heard a cat mew. The author of the "Turkish Spy" used to say that, provided he had a sword in his hand, he would rather encounter a lion in the deserts of Arabia than feel a spider crawling on him in the dark. Similar to the above was the case of William Matthews, son of one of the governors of Barbados, who, likewise, had a great antipathy to spiders. One day the Duke of Athole, thinking that Matthews's dislike, to the harmless- spider was, for the most part, affectation, suddenly left him and some friends conversing together in a room and returned In a few minutes' time with his hand closed. Matthews imagined that the Dake had a spider concealed there, and, thinking that he was about to be made the subject of a practical Joke, lost his temper, drew his sword and was only restrained by his friends from doing the Duke an inJury. Nlcander says that Hippocrates swooned whenever he heard the sound ofa flute. Henrv III when he saw a cat and the Duke d'Epernon fainted at the sight of a leveret, although a full-sized hare had no effect whatsoever upon him. Tycho Brahe. the astronomer. al swooned when he saw a fox. the same thing happening to Marshal d'Albert whenever he set eyes upon a pig. Ambrose Pare, surgeon to Henry III, of France, gives us an account of a woman who fell ill on seeing an eel, while Herr Vaugheim, the great huntsman of Hanover, who had hunted most gime, wil l bojrs included, had to run from the table If he saw a roasted pig.

Johann Fehr. tha German physician and medical writer. In tils Academy of the Curios, tells us of a young woman, a native of Schelestadt, who for sixteen years exhibited such an aversion to wine that she could not touch anything of its nature without perspiring greatly, although she had been accustomed to drink ing it. Sweeping, it would appear, has a peculiar effect upon some people s nerves. : Thus, John Peachmah, a learned divine, never heard the floor of a room being swept " without feeling uneasy and experiencing a fensation of suffocation. The sight of a brush so upset this reverend gentleman that he would run away and even jump out of a window at the mer sight of this Implement of cleanliness. An- . other gentleman With an aversion to the scund of sweeping is mentioned in King's Ten Thousand Wondrous Things and we are told that this young man was in the habit of fainting whenever he chanced to hear the maid servant plying the brush. A Roman Catholic magazine called the Lamp is responsible for the following story of a monk, who had a strange antipathy to crayfish: One evening, when he was dining with some friends, a dish of crayfish was placed before him. Immediately he changed color, growing pale, and staring fixedly at the dish, while the perspiration poured down his face, and he appeared so weak that he almost fell from his seat. Pierre de Laucre, who wrote and flourished in the seventeenth century, when deallngvith the subject of courage, mentions some remarkable antipathies. An officer, who on the field of battle was as bold as AJax. was so frightened of a mouse that he could not' look upon one without a sword in his hand. Another military gentleman fled at the sight of a boiled rabbit, while a cold shoulder of mutton invariably routed another son of Mars whenever he st eyes upon that dish. It is not often that any one exhibits an ontlpathy to a whole sex. though this appears to have been the case with Hannah Murton, who some fifty years ago died at Gray's Almshouse, Taunton, at the ripe old age of eighty-two. She was a maiden lady, and had such a horror of the male sex that early In life she made a vow that no "he-fellow" as she expressed it should touch her alive or dead. Accordingly, some ten years before her death she purchased a coffin, to which, on the slightest symptom of illness, she retired; and it so happened that she died one evening when Iving in her coffin, thus obviating the necessity of her dead body being touched by the defiling hand of the undertaker's hefellows."

San Francisco Examiner. R. L. Fulton, of Reno, for a number of vears agent oi tne iaiiu uc ihuiii oi w Central Pacific railroad, tells a strange story f the myriads of wild horses now roaming over Nevada and of the steps that have been taken to get rid of them. . "There are in Nevada more than 200,OOff head of these horses." said "Mr. Fulton, "and they are increasing so fast that they are getting to be a great nuisance. Cattle and sheep owners are killing them whenever they can. The last Legislature passed a law permitting any one to shoot any stallions that were found running wild, and the ranchers h.ve, in consequence, been killing them off whenever they could. They do this as well to get rid of them as to keep the wild horse from increasing. The trouble is they are eating off the grass so that sheep and cattle owners are having a tough time of it in certain sections. More than thts. the stallions are, in many cases, leading off the domestic horses from the ranches. So the ranchers have it in for them and are making it lively. Many is the stallions they have killed, and some of them are very fine, too. And what do you suppose they do with them afterward? Why, they turn them over to the swine to eat. They figure that in this way eac-h stallion is worth about $2. which is the topnotch figure that can be realized from thorn. . i . i , i Horses are very camp now ui wurm urr. but probably not since the settlement of

America nave norses peen so ciieap as iney are in Nevada. "Most of the wild horses are in the neighborhood of Elko and Iron Point. A few years ago there wan turned loose from the Evans ranch, near Iron Point, a fine thoroughbred stallion. He joined the neighboring bands of wild horses and could not be got back again. The result has been that the quality of the herd was greatly improved. He left many colts that were superior to the old stock. The various bands have increased much since then. While many of the horses would not be called first class, others are very fine and are as tough as pine knots and as fleet a there is any use of having horses, 'i hey are eating the grass off and making It hard picking places for cattle and sheep, and as the ranchers can't catch the wild horses they are nhooting them down whenever they get a sight of them and can get up clone enough. The latter is not an easy task. In fact, it usually Is a most difficult thing . to do. They use long-range rlf.es. however, and ride fleet domestic horses, anil in this way pick off a great many. Every rancher or cattle owner in Nevada, when he sees a wild stallion and has a weapon with him, turns loose at It. It is the particularly aim and mission of every cowboy to thin them off, and oftentimes he is not. so very particular just what kind of wild horse It is." Story of the Late Mrs. Pa run Stevens. Worcester Gazette. One story is repeated of her which may be placed here to her credit, although It Is not long since it was told In print. An opulent woman, who had got into society, as It were, by climbing over the fence when the . policeman's back was turned, onre asked Mrs. Stevens in a supercilious way about a young lady she was introducing. "Who is your friend. Miss T' she said. Mis Is a charming girl," replie-d Mrs. Stevens, "well bred, as you see. accomplished, entertaining." "Yes. I know," persisted the snob, "but dear Mrs. Stevens, of course, you know what I mean who is she?" "Mv dear woman," retorted Mrs. Stevens.
