QUITE A ScENE.-The quiet enjoy
ment Of a social dancing party was
briefly interrupted on Saturday night
by the appearance of an enraged hus-
band In search of a wife who had
either attended without his permission
or against positive prohibition. His
first demonstration after finding her
was to seize her violently by the arm,
and with abusive eplthets urge her to
20 home. Her plea of wishing to full
fill an engagement for the next dance
only made matters worse, and no f.
naliy pulled a pistol out of his pocket
and putting 1t to her head exclaimed,
"Now, d-n you, 60 home" with
other expressions more forcible than
polite. Just here, however, there was
an ominous forward movement of a
member of the male portion Of the
party toward the husband that con-
yinced him that the climate of that
section was rapidly increasing in tenn
perature, and likely to become dis
agreeably warm very suddenly; and
he very wisely took very long steps In
the direction Of the door, down the
steps, down the street, and away so
fast that 1t was impossible for his wife
or anyone else to keep him company.
OF the sequel we know nothing, but
we understand that the combined lnflu-
ence Of! rum and Jealousy are charge
able with the production Of that lively
little Scene.-Sdc. Record.

FROM CmcAGo-ITs DRsoLATIoNs
AND SoRRows.-Mr. C. D. Miller, and
other citizens of Jacksonville, who
spent yesterday in Chicago, reached
here this morning and report that the
half has not and cannot be told Of the
horrors, desolation, destruction and
ruin Of the great conflagration. The
greatest length Of the burnt district is
seven miles, and the greatest width
two. The aggregate losses are placed
by those most competent to judge Of
tho matter at not less than three hun
dred millions. Destitution, despond-
ENJOY and despair Is visible everywhere.
Thousands who, three days ago were
rich, and lived in luxury and splendor,
to-day are penniless, houseless and de-
spairing. The waterworks being de-
stroyed, water Is carried in many cases
for miles In buckets for ordinary do
nestle uses. Mr.. Miller reports that
the lowest estimate of the losses by the
fire is three-fourth In value Of the
property Of the entire city. In area
the relative loss was not so great, Of
course, rs that portion Of the city de-
stroyed was the finest and most costly.

JEALoUsY.-For some time a speck
of trouble has existed between q man
and wife living In this District. The
wife became SO possessed with jeal-
ousy, that she took q green-goggle-
eyed view of every female that came
within speaking distance of her adored
but wronged "afinity." His move.
ments were watched from the time Of
leaving the domestic stove until his
return. Monday evening she accused
him of infidelity. Against the charge
he put in a denial. She would not
hear an explanation, and declared she
would destroy herself. The husband
kept watch of her movements, fearing
that In her ungovernable temper and
fierce jealousy, she might put her
threat into execution. She arose from
her bed in the night (thinking that her
husband was asleep, took a package
from a drawer of the wash stand, and
emptled a portion Of the contents into
a glass. Just rs she was in the act of
placing the glass to her lips, the watch
full husband caught her hand. In an
instant, she realized that her suspicious
disposition had placed her on the brink
Of eternity. She fell on her knees
and offered thanks to her Maker for
having escaped committing the awful
crime of self-destruction. The afec-
tionate but misguided woman acknowl-
edged that she had medltated suicide
for several days. She was afraid to 60
to a drug store for poison for fear Of
arousing suspicion. She had heard Of
cyanide of potassium being used In
quartz mills, and she obtained enough
from a certain quartz mill mot far from
this city, to kill q dozen jealous wo-
men. She will hereafter probably
allow an outside female to occasionally
look cross-eyed at her husband, with
out getting her "back up and intro
duclng cyanide of potassium into the
family.-White Pine Neps.
