The Southern Pj:c:Hc and Western Pacific officials received instructions from Harriman and Gould not to fight each other in matters pertaining to Western P-c'Sc rights of way, where they enc-onc'i on Southern Pacific ; lands between Oakland and Stockton, and between Stockton . and Oroville.

There Is a man In an eastern town who means to secure a building for the Young Men's Christian Association there. The canvass started very slowly and" he pledged $1,000. "But," said he to the secretary, "I began in this town at $1.50 a day and supported my mother. I pledged $100 to the church payable $50 a year, not knowing how the money would come; but it did come. I want" to say that I'm going to stand by this association building canvass till its through. They will have a building here yet if I have ta put it up myself." - . The above is the spirit that will make the Young Men's Christian Association canvass a success in Richmond. One man of that spirit is a power. Who can estimate the strength of a number of men of the above spirit? The above is largely the characteristc of the men who are taking places on the various committees of the Young men's Christian Association building campaign of this city. ' L-ooia Snpoleon Answered, Lady Blessington did not always meet with gratitr.de from some whose position at Inst enabled them to serve her. She sheltered In her London home Louis Napoleon after he had escaped from his prison in Ham. After Louis Napoleon became president of the French republic he seems to have turned the cold shoulder on Lady Blessington and Count D'Orsay when they approached him in Paris. There was a story going at the time, for th accuracy of which we certainly wil not vouch, but which appeared in se eral of the London papers. Shortly Defore Lady Blessington's death she met, so the, story goes, the president driving In the Champs Elysees. He stopped his carriage, she stopped hers, and they conversed for a few minutes. His manner seemed to her determinedly chilly. "Do you stay long in Paris?" h asked as he was about to drive on. "No." '6he answered. "And you?" London Spectator. ARMY AND NAVY NOTES.

DIVORCE ASKED Oil

PECULIAR GROUNDS Marion Woman Alleges She Was Hypnotized into Marrying Husband No. 2. IN PURGATORY NINE YEARS SHE CLAIMS THROUGH HIS POW ER HE COMPELLED HER TO LEAVE FIRST HUSBAND MEN TAL AND PHYSICAL WRECK. Marion, Ind., Sept. 12. (Spl.) Hypnotism or occult power of some kind, is alleged in one of the most unusual divorce complaints ever filed in the Superior Court. The plaintiff, Olive Heath, does not claim to be legally married to the de fendant, Herbert Morehart, and therefore she caused her maiden name to be used in the complaint. She alleges she was married to Henry Corn well, when sixteen years old and lived hap pily for two years in Miland, Mich., until the defendant, Herbert More hart, came into her life.' She alleges she knew she was married to Cornwell, but some occult power compelled her to go to Gladwin, Mich., where de fendant procured a marriage license by making an affidavit" that she had lived in the county two years and that neither of them had ever been mar ried, thereby committing perjury. She further alleges they moved from city to city and State to State, that by threats and the peculiar power he exercised over her, he compelled her to remain with him for 9 years. She avers, that they came to Marion July 26, 1905, that be remained here until recently, when he left her for fear of arrest, he having exerted a similar power over her youngest sis ter, Clara Heath, age eighteen. ' The plaintiff asserts that her life for nine years, has been like a soul in pur gatory. She said she lived in constant fear that she was humiliated because of the pretended marriage and her life with the defendant, but that she could not free herself from his influence. She says she is a men tal and physical wreck as the result. BRITISH BRIEFS. For every 4 shillings spent In Britain on. drink only a halfpenny is expended on education.

The first Instance of collaboration in English literature was that of the plays by Beaumont and Fletcher. Astronomers are the longest lived of any class, not even excepting clergy. Thirteen of the great astronomers have been over ninety at their death and thirty-two over eighty. In Rockland, Me., the other day a shipment of live lobsters was made to Seattle, Wash., which is believed ta be the longest distance thus far for a consignment of that kind. "Tfcis town," says the Washington (Kan.) Republican-Register, "has a young man who pawned his watch to obtain momy for a bath. We contend that this is a claim for distinction possessed by no 'other town on earth." One of the curious customs in congress is to furnish free lemonade for senators, while representatives must pay for the same luxury.

This ostracism exasperated the Siamese, and whenever he got a chance he would grab one of the others by the tail, drag him ail over the deck and finally climb into the rigging and drop his victim with a dull thud. - Darwin tells of a female orang outang that took hold of a dish in which her food was served t'iid put it on her head as if it it were a hat. Thus adorned she provoked roars of laughter, to her evident gratification, from the crowd around her cage. Another naturalist saw a baboon gel even with an officer who had of tea teased him. Seeing the officer approaching, the baboon poured some water into a hole in the ground, mixing it with earth so as to make mud. When his enemy came up he splashed the muddy water ou the officer's uniform.
