Spanish Courtesy. "Oh, we cannot stand on ceremony! The world goes too fast for that. ’ The excuse is the modern apology for that lack of courteous kindness that eterjbodv feels and few people enjoy. Courtesy, however, has not quite died out of the earth. Mr. 11. C. Chatfield-Tay-lor, in “The Land of the Castanet,” says that in Spain true courtesy yet survives. It must bo so when Spaniards will go to great pains to pay the smallest attention to a stranger tramping from church to church, and from gallery to gallery to show him 'the sights, taking him shopping, calling at his hotel tv i<e in a day to offer their services, and doing a thousand things that neither an American nor an Englishman would dream of doing.

A Spaniard will send the stranger flowers, take him to drive each day of his visit, and bestow countless little attentions that show a real interest m his welfare, and an earnest desire to please. When he parts from bis visitor. the Spaniard will make him fee I that he is losing a friend. The little courtesies of every-day occurrence in Spain contrast forcibly

with the offhand manner of more Vt ostein people. No one enters a Spanlsn railway carriage without bowing to every occupant, or leaves it except with the same polite acknowledgment. On taking a seat at a hotel taino it is customary to salute each ot, the guests, and it is bad manners in Spain to go into a shop and ask for what you want before you have greeted the shop- ( keeper. On his part the “God be with I you," or “May all be well with you, will not be wanting when the wouldbe customer leaves, though he may have failed to make a purchase.

WILL LAST A MONTH.' CHICAGO’S GREAT MURDER trial drags along. Case of Sansagemaker Insert Is Far from Beinu Ended Shotgun Quarantine in Texas Irrigation Congress Meets-Government Report on Crops. End Is Not Near. The beginning of the sixth week of the Luetgcrt trial in Chicago brought to the b ....... i mnro heterogene-

court room a large ami mme m u v ous crowd than usual. Long before the court room doors were open, men, women and children surged about the main entrance of the criminal court building and made violent efforts to get in. Policemen ami court bailiffs on duty at the doors had much difficulty in handling the crowds and admitting those with tickets. ne State’s Attorney's office was overrun by people who importuned Assistant States Attorney’ McEwen for passes. States Attorney Deneen and Assistant States Attorney McEwen avoided the solicitations only by locking themselves in the! I State’s Attorney’s private office, wheret they consulted for half an hour with PoJ

live Inspector Sehaack and Police ' aptain Sehuettler. Luetgert came into court smoking a cigar and greeted his attorneys and his son, Arnold, pleasantly. The alleged wife murderer seemed to be in an exceptionally pleasant frame of mind and joked and laughed with his son and Win. Char.es, bis business partner, until Judge Tuthdl appeared upon the bench. Mary Siemering, the servant girl, whose i cross-examination was in progress Satur- ; day when court adjourned, was called, j Around this witness, according to the the-

orv of the proj*<‘ouiion, the* motive for the । alleged murder of Mrs. Loui -e Luetgert I centers. Luetgert's infatuation for his : prettv servant girl is claimed by the pros- | ecution to have b. • n the instilling motive j to this celebrated crime. When she went * on the witness stand to again endure, as she supposed, the cross examination of State’s Attorney Peneen. Mary S enn r ; ing appeared composed and defiant. Her cheeks were flushed, which indicated »P patently some mental excitement. bm the young woman, it was evident, had mane up her mind to control her feelings, and not permit the State's Attorney to con fuse her. liis cross examination was not severe. “PM you not say before the grand jury that Mrs. I.uetgert was n good and kind mother’.-" asked Mr. McEwen. "1 did," confessed the witness. “Nou you sax she beat her children .and was cross with them : "When I xx ent to the grand jury room

Several questions of an impeaching character were asked j and Mary Sit m< ring was ex mst d leit tae witness stand with a smile and! took a seat wiihin the inch sure and remained to listen to other witnesses. Jacob Melber of Wheaton, 111., testified that on May G lie miw a woman at the depot in Wheaton at 5 o'clock in the m lining whose description resembled that ■of Airs, Luetgert. She inquired the way to. Elmhurst. Melber is a butcher. He said he sa.w Mrs. Luetgert once last March. \\ hen asked upon cross-examina-tion to describe the missing woman he

could not (io so and was excused. ( haries Roehnko, who had worked for I Luetgert n>r sixteen years, testified that on April -S fop had a brief conversation with Mrs. Luetgert. She seemed much ■ depressed, the witness said, and remarked i that things were going bad in the house.” i bhe said, according to the witness, that she would go to the country and go to work as a servant. "We are about ruin- ! ed and 1 will go to the country and work I out. I cannot stay here,” the witness I said were the words of the apparently dis- ' traeted woman. "I told her that times were as hard in | the country as they were in the city,” ; said Boehnke, "and advised her not to I go.” I Mhen Mrs. Augusta Koch, a neighbor] of the Luetgerts, who knew Mrs. Loot f gert well, was called to the witness stand i Juror W dliam Harler was called upon .0 act as interpreter. Mrs. Koch Sit id she had known Mrs. Lueigert for eleven vears ।

anil had lived near her most of this’time. She saw ami talked with Mrs. Luetgert the last week in April. Mrs. Luetgert was depressed and talked about going away. She told the witness, according to the statement of the latter, that Luetgert had been swindled by a man who had promised to pay a big sum for an interest" in the sausage factory. Luetgert had let the man have a large amount of money and the man had run away. This evidence was in support of the statement of ex-Judge \ incent at the opening of the trial to the effect that a promoter had swindled Luetgert out of $25,000 and that this was the beginning of the troubles of the sausage maker. Other witnesses tes tified along this line. William Charles, Luetgert’s partner testified that the caustic soda taken to the basement of the sansage factory in March was brought there for the purpose of cleaning the establishment. Several barrels of tallow and a barrel of chipped bones were emptied into the middle vat to make soft soap, according to the wit ness. L ' The first of the scaling fleet to retur 1 home to Victoria, B. C., the Cage" brought 1,064 skins, taken off the Jam ’ coast and Cooper Islands.

Like the preceding weeks, howover, it has been very unfavorable for the germination of sown grain, as well as for fallowing and seeding, which is much delayed generally throughout the central and western and in some of the Southern States.

A retired sea captain, sixty years of age, well known to the reputable citizens of New Haven, suffered from an overworked and worn-out digestive apparatus. He had no faith in patent medicines as a cure for dyspepsia, but was induced by a friend to try Ripans Tabules. This he did with but little hope of benefit. After trying them for some time he said to the friend who had directed his attention to them: “Those Ripans Tabules were so effective from the start that I was amazed at the result. They are wizards. All the dyspeptic misery endured by me since becoming a landlubber has disappeared. I take one every night now, and feel so much rejuvenated by their use that I sometimes think I could climb a ship’s rigging as well as I did thirty years ago.”
