Indian courts have to decide queer questions. The Buddhists of Japan presented an image to the great temple of Buddha Gaya. The Hindoos objected to the acceptance of the present, especially the abbot of a Sivaite monastery near by, who claimed, under a decree 400 years old. the right to determine what should go into the temple. A mob broke into the temple and carried off the Image. Some of the rioters were fined, but apinmUxl to the Supreme Court at Calcutta, which has Just decided in their favor, having ascertained that the Abbot's Hahn was legal.

Women in perfect or good health are rarely victims of this symptom. I Women nearly monopolize the ' blues, because their k peculiar ailments & promote them.

| HOLMES IS TO HANG MODERN BORGIA CONVICTED IN PHILADELPHIA. Arch Fiend and Monster in Human Form Found Guilty of Murder ill the First Degree—Jury Needed No Time for Debate. Gallows Awaits Him. Henry H. Holmes, otherwise Herman AV. Mudgett, swindler, bigamist, murderer and arch fiend, has been arrested in bis career of crime by a verdict of murder in the first degree, that is likely to send bint after his many victims into the unknown beyond' the grave. The monster who built in Chicago a labyrinth to snare ami kill human game without detection, who slew innocent children without reason or compunction, who made a pastime of betraying women, who - waded through blood for money, who robbed widows and or phans, who exhausted an expert’s ingenuity in devising ndw. forms of death, who successfully swindled insurance companies of thousands, who escaped detection for years in the most remark:! hie and varied career in the annals of American crime, was convicted in Philadelphia Silt unlay of the murder of Benjamin F Pit sol, of Chicago. The man who was about to hear the warrant for his death, who had meted out death to others without mercy ami who had gone through trying ordeal* almost without a quiver of the lips or a twinge of the conscience. stood erect in the dock, unmoved, apparently unheeding, tin his face sat the pallor of death, blit it had been there for. days, and did not deepen as he gave one swift glance nt the rows of unsympathizing eyes nt his back, turned his gaze nt the jury in a blank stare, and clapped his hands behind him. Once or twice be moistened his bps with his tongue, apparently betraying a fever of anxiety that he held in check with Lis iron nerve. There was no other sign of agitation, and Holmes heard his doom in silence, as though it might have been a dream. Tho clerk of the court, in a voice op

How say you, gen tiemen of the jttry Y !>o yon find the pri* oner nt the bar, Herman M Mi:dg<it, alias H. H. Holldos, guilty of the niunb r of Benjamin F. Pitzel, or uot guilty?” Tile spokesmau of the fwelve men had not been touched with pity for the pris oner, for lie answered promptly, clearly and without a shadow of feeling: “Guilty of murder in the first degree.” The accused stood like a statue ns the verdict was being pronounced. There was no tremor in his shrunken form; no twitching of a lip. His marvelous self mastery bad not forsaken him. There was a tighter clasp on a paper he held in his hand, but the eyes rested on the jury as though held by a mysterious magnet. At last Holmes relieved the ten sion by clearing his throat with a hoarse “hem” as Lie slowly sank into his seat, and the people moved in their seats and turned to make whispered comments. This remarkable criminal, however, was forgive yet another evidence of his self-poSSettsion. His counsel requested the clerk to poll the jury, and each of th* twelve man reafiinued the verdict which their foreman had already given. As each name was called Holmes wrote it on the margin of the newspaper. There was no trembling of the fingers which guided the lead pencil and the writer glanced up at each juryman in turn, as though fixing the face is his memory. The Court made a formal rm-ord wf the ' verdict, and Holmes' counsel made the expected motion fora new trial. Holme* followed th* proceedings in silence, and when axi vfijeer indicated that Lu was uo ■ lunger v am tod he arose alertly without protest sr apparent reluctance, and started out of th* courtroom.

1 WHEAT AND CORN. Spring Wheat Crop Is Said to Be Not Very Good in Point of Quality. The quality of the new spring crop has been a mooted question. For this reason a Chicago paper has obtained from official sources the inspection returns at Minneapolis, the largest spring wheat receiving 1 point, and presents it as a very fair index 1 ; to the character (quality) of the last crop. J It is a good crop in quantity, but the figure’s are not especially encouraging from a quality standpoint. Here are the returns for the last three mouths, I towing the number of ear loads received and the 1 way they are graded: . Grades— Aug. Sept. Oct. totals.

Na i matter what the price is a certain amount is sure to be marketed ns soon ns ready. Taxes have to be paid ami debts contracted during the growing of the crop must be met. It would appear that big crop ' prices already prevail, and for this reason it’would not seem possible for values to ! sink mtn-h. if any. lower. In lowa. Kan mis ami Nebraska the producer will get very little for his crop, I'dß/t/L'ie per bu, perhaps. Oats are not being marketed so freely lately, perhaps on account of the wry low price. Provisions have show n'a little more life, but are still very uninteresting. FLAMES SWEEP PRAIRIES. Indiuua Towns Have Narrow Encapea from Destruction.

Mr. W. C. Lewis, who is connected with the artistic advertising j department of the Youth’s Companion, and resides at 33 Dwight street, Boston, relates that he had his attention called to Ripans Tubules by a business acquaintance who expressed a high opinion of them. Mr. I.ewis was a good deal troubled with what he describes aa a nervous, bilious condition that appeared to be brought on from time to time by high pressure work or special mental activity or excitement, such as would be common at periods of unusual nervous tension. It has become his practice at such times to take a Tabule—just one—at the moment that In observes tile difficulty approaching. It makes no difference when it Is. A favorable result is Invariably apparent within twenty minutes. The only noticeable effect is that he feels all right in twenty minutes if he takes the Tabuie; while if he does not the nervous, uncomfortable feeling intensifies and leads to a bad afternoon and tired evening. He carries one of the little vials with him all the time now, but doesn’t have occasion to apply to it anything like as often as he did at first. Nowadays there are frequent periods of from a week to ten days or even two weeks during which he finds that he has no occasion whatever to make use of the Tabules. but still carries them in his pocket, just tho same, so iliat they may be ready if an occasion occurs.
