IN A JUSTICE COURT.

"HIS HONOR" DELIVERS AN OPINION IN IMPRESSIVE STYLE. W

Attempt to Quash an Indictment Because ©fa Misspelled Word—T.'ie JoaticoWhose Chief Aim I* to Pat the "Kerhosh" on

Crime Whenever It Show* Its Ugly Front-

Life has been a lamentable failure to the man who baa not prowicd around the precinct judicial gristmill on grinding days and seen iniquity "stomped cn" and justice crowned queen of the JSlay.

But if you would seethe justice court in ftK wild, "unpestercd" state go into the jriDKlw »f fust Texas, where it roams at will «nd subsists on funny young men who get accused of disturbing a peace which In. nil likelihood never existed. In such pistes the justice of the peace generally runs his office in connection with a small stock of f»miJy groceries, and the sessions of fee court are held in the rear fad of the mercantile establishment, where the presiding genius cau keep his eye on the front door, HO that he may not miss a cash sale if opportunity offers. And the opportunity sometimes presents itself on 4uch occasion*, and "his honor" asks the lawyers mid the jury to excuse him while he increase* the gross receipts of the cash drawer. It also happens sometimes that the ,J. P. espies some one in the courtroom Who is in arrears for supplies, and lays a paperweight on legal proceedings while he attempts to induce the delinquent to square the account. This sometimes results in bad blood between debtor and creditor, angry words, axhandles and barrel staves and the ground torn up, in which "his horfor" sometimes comes out of the inflict on all fours, with a head on him like a hippopotamus. Then an adjournment Ih in order, and the rest of the docket •is carried over to the next term of court.

I attended the sitting of one of these 'Courts once and saw it hatch out a small brood of unvarnished justice. A young nan had disturbed the pence and trifled with the dignity of the state in the one mid the same transaction, and justice whetted Its liayknife and howled for revenge. "The court" had drawn up the Indictment at the instance of a nervous gentleman, who claimed thai a subdivision of the peace located in his immediate vicinity had been disturbed by the young man hereinbefore referred to. In drawing up the indictment "bin honor" had deflected somewhat from lloyle and orthography and spelled peace p-i-e-c-e. When court was opened, counsel for defendant. at tempted to quash the complaint on the ground of its literary and legal imperfection and made quite an exhaustive argument to tLat end. After counsel had closed his argument "the court" sustained the indictment in substantially the following language: "While admitting that in the drafting -of the indictment i-.n i-mbnrrassing degree of unfaunliarily with 1ln- standard authorities on diction ia evident from the spelling of the word peace, at the same time it is the opinion of 'the court' that this Inaccuracy dovM not vitiate the indictment, for we eamu-t enter upon the dnngermiH precedent of predicating the administration of justice upon a certain decree of familiarity with the textbooks. "Justice was full grown and had corns on her toes before knowledge har| ceased to wrestle with the colic. Sfle stood guardian over^t lie liberties of man while knowledge wuH in the kindergarten and small clothes, and now to make her subservient to this precocious young .'tin were like the head paying homage to the tail. If counsel will bear with 'the court,' we will state that we are here to administer a job lot of rectangular justice and not fox* the purpose of discussing the literary merit of •the complaint wherein a superfluity of seems to have obtained and in which the drought appears to have struck the 'a' crop "Admitting that, when scrutinized by the scholarly eye,'peace'conveys to the mind different meaning to that of 'piece,' it has no age over it when conveyed to the understanding phonetically, llence, should a witness on the stand testify to the fne.t that, the defendant had disturbed the peace, the import of the word would be determined by the sense in which it was employed, and the same process of f-reasoning would obtain ns applied to the written instrument. "Therefore 'the court* holds that the •complaint, whije a little wobbly in its legs -»s regards literary makeup, is abundantly sunicient for all practical purposes, and I-. this is not a court in which abstract V- theory will ever ho invited to a seat Up next to the stovu and practical demonstration allowed to gnaw file in the buck hall We take it for granted that justice would gel along »s well and sleep as

Bouudly should a conviction le secured for 'disturbing the piece' as though the same verdict had been obtained for disturbing the peace.' The fine would Ik no harder to pay for the person *oconvicted, therup•tured pence would rocover its normal function as early, mid the reven.se accruing to the county by reason of the flue collected would build HM many bridges, courtliousen or

Jsils The chief end ami aim of

•toe justice court to put the kerl osh on «M-ime wherevVr it show* its ugly front, and not to attempt to compete in rtho "v .^raphk'al littish with the bill of fare at a 1 first rate rest-aurant in drawing up hills «f indictment. Scholarly attainment is *11 well and good, but the crucial mom wit ^sometimes arrivm when justice presses lier lily white hands to her stomach and yea run to t»e satisfied. "We do not desire to bo understood ns favoring the conviction of a party for one «flVnse when charged with another. Forbid that we slum Id deain* a man hung when he should only have the seat of his fmnts kicked Into tatters and his plug of tolvaceo taken away from him. Neither we favor the release of a party when it fe evident that he Is guilty simply because the indictment whereby he is brought before the courts would fail to provoke applause from a literary society. So, with a supreme desire to do the square thing between legal form on the one band and box teed Justice on the other, 'the court' will lie forced to sustain th© sufficiency of the indictment and leave the rest to the jury and its God.**

Thru the trial was entered into, and after the evidence was taken and a pjro» technic display of oratory touched off by the counsel on either *side of tbe case, the jury fount! the defendant guilty and fined -him $5 and trimmings for disturbing the piecc.''—GiU vwton News.

ADVANCED GYMNASTICS FOR WOMAN'S PHYSICAL CULTURE, —y

Knowledge, Health and Symmetry Come With the liody's Systematic Improvement—Methods Employed by a Teacher of New York's Fashionables. 4

Physical culture for women is being evolutecl from a fad into a serious science and is accepted by intelligent people as one of the hygienic essentials of existence under the exactions of nineteenth century conditions.

The pioneer advocates of physical culture" were pretty women who posed in Greek gowns, with sandaled feet and filleted tresses, as inspired apostles of a new gospel of beauty and taught at exorbitant rates the charm of "woven paces and waving bands" to their exclusive and infatuated followers. These willowy creatures, bending, swaying, gliding .from one statuesque pose to another yet more classic, worked entirely upon the vanity of women, and the lame and halt, the corpulent and the scraggy, swallowed thfe bait and believed they had only to put on a Greek dress and do so many bends a day to become as beautiful as the dreams Praxiteles perpetuated in marble.

There was something pathetic in the faith of the woman of 200 pounds advoirdupois that inspired within her the heroism to take, or try to take, the Mercury pose in a skirt to her knees and before a roomful of her kind. But when these mothers in Israel had bent and contorted their stiffened members to the verge of cramps and rheumatism, and still the fairies' gift of beauty did not crown their efforts, but rather to her that had too much flesh more was given, and to her that had not was taken away that she had, the enthusiasm died out, the home practice was abandoned, the teacher, who was a fad, like her art, lost her prestige, and all was as before, save that the heart of the woman had been awakened •to long for better things physically. Many of these systems have arisen, had their little day, and fallen into decadence because of their futility. Much amateur work is still done by women endowed with fine physical proportions and little besides save a few stock ideas and movements, to the detriment of the art and of those who seek to teach or study it intelligently.

But in spite of its "false prophets and teachers physical culture has been advanced to a fine and accurate science, with well established premises and proved principles. "The aim of real .physical culture," said Miss Marguerite Lindley, the exponent of the advanced art among tlie lociety leaders of the city, whero every art seeks now its appreciative and generous patrons, "is self knowledge, self preservation and self improvement. The average woman, however well informed on general subjects, is a perfect stranger to her own internal economy, and the fundamental principle of physical culture must bo,to teach every woman something of her own structure and organism. Now, the absurdity of teaching a dozen women of different conditions a set— or, as it is ambitiously called, a system of movements which should benefit all alike, the deli cute, and the strong the stout, and the thin—has been demonstrated in the failure of the system to accomplish its purpose. I make a diagnosis of each individual who presents herself to me for lessons—a diagnosis of all the organs, of the inheritances or environments that have a tendency to prod ii ce sease. "Now, I do not claim that this is a physician's diagnosis, for I have no doctor's diploma, but I have studied and read much with the doctors during the two years I have speut in preparation for this work, into which so many people tumble without auy preparation at nil save a little natural grace and a few lessons from a teacher as ignorant as themselves as to the underlying principles of the science. I have listened to demonstration lectures in Ihe dissecting room, and have taken private and special instruction from physicians and specialists, but in every case where I find auy stronyly defined symptoms of disease or unnatural development 1 consult the pupil's physician before 1 consider my diagnosis complete. All defects, disproportionate growth, uusyiumetrical measurements, arc investigated for their causes, and then I am ready to write out a prescription for each pupil separately for the home exercises best calculated to correct the tendency to physical suffering, headaches, nervousness and all the ills to which American women are peculiarly subject, and the special defects from which each individual may suffer. "These exercises, which are arranged and adapted from t-lfe Swedish .system to the needs of the delicate American woman who cannot endure and is only harmed by severs exercise, differ from the ordinary calisthenics in that they are slow and resistive, never jerky and violent, American women do not need any exercise to disturb the nerve centers, but rather to quiet and strengthen. They differ from the Delsarte in that they are energizing rather than disenergising. They are taken without apparatus, for not only is apparatus quite unnecessary, as well as in many oases unavailable, but the time spent in learning to use it is better employed in studying the beautiful apparatus, its action, leverage and adjustment, that each one bos In her own body. The use of

%the

muscles, their effects upon the circulation, heart action, the purpose of the organs —all this isof greater value than any mechanical contrivances for development. "As for the idea of beauty, that follows of course because a perfectly healthy, perfectly symmetrical, well formed woman is bound to be more or less beautiful. Worn en allow themselves to grow old and unattractive by the constant expenditure of mental force without physical resources to repair the loss. "Probably the question moat frequently asked by women is this* 'Can yon reduce fl«*hf And the answer is decidedly in the affirmative if the heart action is good—first, by not allowing flesh to deposit itself in the muscles by constantly them, ami, second' by absorbing turough exercise the su{ Ittous flesh already deposi ted.

WEDKIMi ETIQUETTE

CEREMONIALS FOR WHICH THE BRIDE'S PARENTS SETTLE.

The Groom Occupies a Subordinate Position— The Designing and Sending of Cards and Their Shades of Meaning—A

Beantilul and Krperssive Certificate.

Now, the Ten Commandments delivered unto Mosfis oc Mount Sinar and inscribed upon 'fcwb tables of stone ore not more fixed and unalterable than is the decalogue of a fashionable wedding. Year after year the'same customs maintain, fixed according to the patterns laid down by the formula followed at English weddings. Year after year they are published. Yet every bride in the freshness of her new experience finds herself confronted with problems in conventionality with which she feels unable to struggle alone. The consequence is that tto "answers to oorrepondence" are so oft repeated and reiterated ns those relating to the law and gospel of the wedding.

First, there is, the stationary. The answer to 'who pays for the wedding cards" ought to be kept constantly in type ready for use. Anybody may pay for them except the bridegroom, but the bride's father or mother usually receives the receipt for the bill at well regulated weddings. Wedding cards and wedding stationery should be pure white, without glaze and with no attempt at ornamentation. The form of the invitation engraved thereon in simple script is:

Mr. and Mrs. Robinson Smith-Jones Request the pleasure of your company at the marriage of their daughter ||ii

Genevieve

.• 7 to t^ Mr. Vandyke Brown on Thursday, Juno 10, at 12 o'clock,

St. Grace's Church.

This invitation, engraved on a folded sheet, is put in an envelope, together with a small card to be presented at the church door and a Larger card, which reads,:

Reception (or Breakfast) jgjg at 25 State Street at One.

The envelope may contain the "At Home" cardr of the newly wddded pair, but it must cf necessity benr only the date and residence with no names, as the wedding invitations are sent out before the bride has anr legal right to Use her husband's name.

By punctilious people this at home card is not inclosed with the others, but announcement cards are sent out after the wedding. In most cases these cards are ordered with the wedding cards, and the bride's mother pays for them. The bridegroom doesn't count for much in the preparation for a wedding.,. About all he is allowed to do is to engage most of the young woman's spare time, to alienate her from her friends by,not giving lifer an opportunity to call on them or them an opportunity to see her other., than in his presence. He is allowed to suggest the names of his friends and relatives to be invited to the ceremony—the bride's mother invites them. He is also permitted to pay for the carriage in which he and his best man make their way to the church. He plays an humble part in the wedding ceromony in plain and formal morning dress, a black frock coat .and trousers of any pnttern he pieces at a morning wedding, or is attired precisely like the serving men at an evening wedding. He, or his best man for him, fees the minister. He may also call on the clergyman* to secure his services, see the organist and make such arrangements us the bride suggests, but all expense, excepting the fee of the clergyman, he is prohibited from paying. He may buy the wedding ring, the bridal gift for his. consort, remembrances for the ushers and bridesmaids, and Jlowers for them all if lie chooses.

One pretty new cit'stoni ,*6rf rather, an old one revived, has been introduced in the modern wedding, copied from the English idea of signing the wedding register, which is rarely done in this country. A beautifully illuminated and engrossed marriage certificate is ordered by the contracting parties, which consists of a largefolio of vellum, white or as near white as it can be prepared. On the dtftar page is engrossed the regular form of the marriage certificate in delicately painted letters, sot in scrolls of orange blossoms and forgetuienots and true iover.s' knots. The letters are in silver or gold. On the inner page is space for the registry of the names of the guests assembled sit the wedding. This certificate is bound in vellum or white volvet, ornamented with solid •ilver corners and scrolls, or it is rolled on a solid silver roller, to which it is attached, and inclosed iu :i solid silver case, richly chased and ornamented. The cheapest of these engrossed certificates costs a bridegroom from $25 to $50. The more elaborate ones often amount to $100, or even $150, while the case will approximate $60 or 875. Occasionally the engrossed cer tifioateis framed in a narrow silver frame: but that for the sake of preservation only, for the marri::ge certificate is not now consitferod an appropriate picture for hanging ou the wall.

Every friend and acquaintance whose acquaintance is desirable is invited to the church wedding. It is perfectly proper to omit their names from the list of reception guests. If the circle of friends be too large, announcement cards may be sent to those not invited to the wedding. People who are invited to a wedding send cards to the bouse if they cannot attend, and either send or leave them within• 10 days after the wedding. These cards should be sent 10 the mother of the bride. The wedding guests should call on the bride herself at her first at home day and arc expected to invite her during the first year after the wedding. People who receive neither an invitation to the wedding nor announcement cards after it may consider that their friendship is no longer desired and commit a great breach of etiquette to make any calls.

The small niceties Of etiquette on such occasibns are usually founded on wise Mid just sentiments. So many and so unexpected are the cases of the slip between the cup and the lip, not infrequently the breach coming: just before the wedding day. that common delicacy forbids the husband's sharing in way of the preparations for the wedding or meeting any of its preliminary expenses. The girl who hasn't sufficient means to make a wedding all herself and go into ha" husband's house free from debt to him pHts on a simple traveling gown and is wedded with no fuss and bother. Not infrequently the quiet weddings antedate the happiest mar riageo.—New York San.

MM* Health.

Dr. Backus of the Packer Institute to Brooklyn, addressing a meeting of cdueatots, spoke forcibly of the rrspoositelity which parent* should feel in their physical care of the yocng studetitduring her days. After saying that he considered the attempt to master common fractious by the

young pupil oc 11 or 12 years of age a task of tremendous magnitude, he urged upon the home elders the necessity of watching closely the health of the girl thus taxed.

He emphatically disapproved of the practice of keeping her oa a piano stool for hours every day. "Pat her to bed early and don't waken her in the morning," he said. "If she is not being overtaxed, she will waken herself in time for school, and if she doesn't, let her sleep. Give her a good breakfast, too, before she starts out. Her stomach at that point of life is a more important organ than her brain."

All of which is sound sense, and was so enthusiastically received by his listeners that it is to be hoped every scholar's guardian present took away the good seed to bear fruit.

Absencc of Large Lakes In Texas. It has been noted as a striking fact that Texas, although a state of unusual area, has not a single large lake. This seems the more remarkable when it is considered that almost every other geographic form is represented, often in great variety, and th" climatic conditions vary from moist to arid. In a recent paper on "Notes on the Physical Geography of Texas,"'by Ralph S. Tarr, in the proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences, explanation of the phenomenon is given.

He holds that Texas contains no large lakes, first, because there are no regions o? striking structural features, except one (the older paleozoic area) in which erosion has long been in progress and its lakes long since destroyed, and one in a region too dry for the exigence of lakes, and, secondly,, because erosion has tapped the shallow lakes that formerly, no doubt, existed on the new cretaceous and tertiary land. Sink holes in limestone regions, frequently containing small and shallow bodies of water lagoons on the Beashore, and oxbow lakes 'in the flood plains constitute the major part of the Texas lakes. To these might be added the expanded springs, the streams caused by the overburdened condition of the main stream (Pecan Bayou and San Saba river, tributary to the Colorado), and the chain of pools of the subhumid region, formed by the desiccation of the river. The salt lakes, plazas and alkaline marshes and flats of the trans-Pecos region are the desiccated remnants of lakes, formerly of greater size, just as the pools are the result of the annual desiccation of normally continuous streams.—Philadelphia Ledger.

A Use For Blotting Paper.

A fact that is not generally known is that ordinary blotting paper makes excellent mats for engravings, prints and the like. White, gray or buff will one of them suit almost any picture, and whenever the size of the large sheet is sufficient an effective mat can be cut for the sum of 10 cents. One woman who is quick to appropriate all such hints has successfully framed many pictures with the help of these homemado mats, and declares that in both tone and texture they are infinitely better than any low priced ones to be ordered from the franier. Pictures of real, substantial worth are of course entitled to handsome mats, but many charming bits set in blotting paper make a goodly showing and greatly add to the decoration of the home.—New York Journal.

Whistling Woman's Work.

People who imagine that Mi's. Alice Shaw, the whistler, has made her reputation and her money simply by exercising a power that any small boy walking along a country road indulges are mistaken. She has practiced from two to three hours every day since she began her whistling career, aud she maintains that it is as much of ,a gift to whistle as it is to paint or to write or to sing, "First," she says, "one must have his whistle. Next, he must possess an absolutely correct ear. The least fluctuation or deviation from harmony creates a worse discord in whistling than in almost any other form of melody, but, starting with the lung power, the correct ear and the whistling ability, patience and ceaseless practice will make a good whistler."

Hen and Men.

The great sinner against society ia the cynic, the scoffer, the disbeliever, the man in whose spirit negation sits enthroned. "We are saved by hope." The man who awakens hope, aspiration, confidence in the spirit of men, contributes something to the social welfare. He is a builder rather than a destroyer. He helps to save men, because he awakens in men the dispositions and the spiritual energies by which their lives are enriched and made useful to thepaselves and others.—MethO' dist Recorder.

Iastruction of Children.^

Teach children to do little things about the house. It tr^ns them to be useful, not awkward, in later and more important affairs it gives them occupation while they are small, and it really is an assistance to the mother in the end, although she always feels during the training period that it is much easier to do the thing herself than to show another how. This last excuse has done much to make selfish, idle, unhandy members of an older society, and shoald be remembered in its effects by the mother while her little ones are beginning to learn all things, good and bad, at her knee. Occupation makes happiness, and occupation cannot be acquired tod young.—New York World. ||g||

A Dre«s Hint.

"Yea, I know my complexion is still fresh and fair, but break the black lines," was the injunction given the dressmaker. And this is how she did it: On the inky hued skirt, not midway, but near the waist line, the modiste ran three rows of white lace beading insertion in and out of the tiny openings of narrow black ribbons. This unique garniture also trimmed the high, standing collar, the edge of the clown sleeves and the broad belt. It is by ail odds the prettiest black and white toilet-for •emidress.— New York Press.

Gracefulness, when natural, is a very pretty accompaniment to youth and beauty in women, but when it is assumed, or rather imitated in an exaggerated form by women of mature-years for purposes of coquetry and flirtation, it becomes most, distasteful to those possessed of any refinement.

How to Wear a Bonnet.'

In the first, place, to wear a bonnet properly presupposes that it is on one's head to stay consequently in pinning it to position great cure must be taken. I do not advise long bonuetpins. Instead, I suggest short ones, very sharp ones, that will not make holes iu the felt, nr.d the use of four or five. A famous Freiich milliner, in showing a somewhat fantastic hat,'announced that to make it look as it should IS pins would be required! Without going to this extreme, I do think it wiser to use three or four medium sized pins in preference to one large one. If you are in the habit of wearing your hair low, plait and twist a small braid, pinning it securely on the top of your head, and fasten your bonnet to it, for if you attempt to pin it to the back hair it will make you look ludicrous.—Ladies' Home'Journal.

A VETERAN'S VERDICT.

I1!

The War is Over. A Well-known Soldier, Correspondent and .Journal^, ist Makes a Disclosure.

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave soldiers to the war, and no state beara a better record in that respect than it does. In literature it is rapidly acquiring an enviable place. In war and literature Solomon Yewell, well known as a writer as "Sol," has won an honorable position. During the late war he was a member of Oo. M, 2d. N. Y. Cavalry and of the 18th Indiana Infantry Volunteers. Regarding an important circumstance he writes as follows: "Several of us old veterans here are using Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine? Heart Cure and Nerve and Liver Pills, all or them giving splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have never used remedies that compare with them. Of the Pills we must say they are the best combination of the qualities required In a preparation of their nature weliave ever known. We have none but words of praise for them. They are the outgrowth of anew principle In medicine, and -tone up the system wonderfully. We say to all, try these remedies/' —Solomon Yewell, Marion, Ind., Dec. 5,1892.

These remedies are sold by all druggists on a positive guarantee, or sent direct by the Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart Ind., on receipt of price, $1 per bottle, six bottles 15, express prepaid. They positively contain neither opiates nor dangerous drugs.
