t i ~ *■ »■ ■ Mrs. Ada-Roberts was put on trial iuHtiicago tWo years ago, for the murder of Theodore V/eber. The murder was proved upon her, but the plea of insanity was sustained and she was sent to the. insane asylum at Elgin. Recently she was taken from tbe asylum, on a writ of habeas corpus, and her sanity-being estabiisned before Judge' Rogers, she was discharged from custody and went from the court room a free woman. It is charged that her plea of insanity was a sham, and that her release is but the culmination of the original plan of her defense. It is maintained, on the other haqd, however, that her treatment at the asylum has been horrible, and the recital of her wrongs by her counsel caused many tears to flow, while her release was hailed with applause. i I ■* 1 » Vt ■, Thb descendants of the illustrious Frenchman who aided our forefathers in gaining the independence of America, are very proud of their inherited honors for that noble work.

And then the exquisite taste displayed by your florists |s., really surprising. In France we have lovely flowers, but there!* no such skill in arranging them in artistic boquets, charming baskets and horseshoes, as has been seen in the numerous floral gifts presented to us.” V-
