Curious VIII Case.

The Troy Times relates the following
concerning well-known citizen OF that
place, who in 1916 married an estimable
lady there
TFor while they lived happily to-
gether, but ON account Of family dis
sensions in 1913 they signed an agree
ment that they would live apart. The
fruit of their union was daughter, who
remained with the mother. Some time
after the husband, presuming he had
been legally divorced, married again,
and shortly thereafter his wife followed
his example. In time the gentleman's
second wife died, leaving him II son,
and few years ago he again married.
The first and third wives are still liv-
ing, but few days ago the gentleman
died, leaving the bulk of his property,
amounting to $4,000, to his last wife
and family, consisting of two children.
Since the death of the gentleman it has
transpired that, not having been di-
vorced from his first wife, he committed
bigamy in marrying again. The first
wife will now bring an action, through
her counsel, to break the will, which
has not yet been presented for pro.
bate. She claims that when the will
was made her husband was not in his
sound mind, and that undue influence
was exerted over him. She will claim
dover in all real estate transactions,
and has engaged counsel to prosecute
her claim in behalf of herself and
daughter, the latter being also married.
All the persons are of the greatest re.
speciality, and the case is II very hard
one for all concerned"

The New York correspondent of the
Chicago tribune writes Speaking
the other day, to gentleman well ac-
quainted with public men, on the sub
ject Of their capacity and habits of
work, he remarked that the hardest
worker he had ever known was Caleb
Gushing. Gushing told my informant
that, for twenty-t five years, he had spent
seventeen out of every twenty-four
hours in intellectual notwithstanding,
studying, or writing giving himself
but seven LDurs for rest and recreation.
Gushing has an extraordinary constitu-
ton and the most vigorous health, and
receives such pleasure from absorbing
mental occupation that it has by long
habit become second nature to him.
He is now seventy at least, and OF late
years. being regularly employed as a
sort of Government lawyer upon in
ternational cases at Washington, he has
taken life more easily, as well he might
at his advanced age"

Are ladies aware that the waterfall
and chignon are borrowed from the
lowest order of women in Japan, who
always have a weakness for them? In
the widest portions of Africa, as the
drawings made by travellers invariably
show, chignons ara worn, and the more
dangerously wild the women, the great
er the chignon. In japan, also, it has
been observed, the less woman has in
side her her head, the more she man

until the next meeting at which Mr.. Edmunds can
be present. The prospects of Judge WlJlanss con

from satisfied with the appointment. and there are
no doubt, republicans enough IN the Senate who
would prefer that some other man should he APP
pointed rather than defeat confirmation. Should
Mr.. Edmunds lead against it, one consideration may
induce some Senators who are not pleased with tho
nomination to vote in favor Of it, and that is, that
while they themselves have candidates for the place
they would prefer to have Judge Williams take the
position than to vote for any other man who has
been prominently mentioned for the position The
motion is not expected to come before the Senate for
a week or more.
The confirmation Of Mr.. Shepherd to be Governor
