THE HOUsEKEEPER'S LAMENT.


THE H0UsEKEEPER'S LAMENT.
Oh life is a toll, and love lie a trouble,
And beauty will fade and riches will flee,
And pleasures they dwindle and prices they dou-
And nothing is what could wish it to be.
There's too much of worriment goes to bonnet;
There's too much of ironing goes to a shirt;
There's nothing that pays for the time you waste
on it;
dirt.
In March it is mud /; it's slush in December;
The midsummer breezes are leaoed with DUST
In fall the leaves litter; in muggy September
The Wallpaper rots and the candlssticks rust.
There worms in the cherries, and slugs in the
roses,
And ants in the sugar and mice in the pies,
The rubbish Of spiders no mortal supposes,
And rayaging reaches and damaging Hies.
Its sweeping at six, and it's busting at seven;
It's victuals at eight, and its dishes at nine;
It's potting and panning fro m ten to eleven;
We scarce break our fast ere we plan how TO dine.
With grease and with CRIME, from corner to CENTRE
+ Forever at var, and forever alert,
No rest for day, lest the enemy enter
spend my whole life in struggle with dirt.

NEW YORK, June ls.--A cable dis
patch reports terrible fight between
the Turks and Montenegrlns. The
Saturday and Friday named may re-
fer TO week before last. The Gable
says the advances OF the Turks from
Padgoritza ALBANIA have been CAREFUL
ly watched by Montenegro spies, and
every precaution had been taken In
selecting point at which TO receive
the invading parties. The Turks
moved forward to Spiez, reaching that
place Friday night and encamping.
On Saturday morning at daylight the
advance into Montenegro began. The
Turkish force numbered 10000 men,
under command OF Ali Saib. The
Montenegrlns had taken up their sta
ton ut Planade, three thousand strong.
About ten o'clock the Turkish MI
vance came upon the Montenegro
pickets, who fell back to the main
body. An hour later the fourteen
batalions OF All Saib came up, aud
without hating, attacked the Monte-
negro position. During eight hours
following the engagement was befnre
u deiile, aud lighting during retreat
lasted four hours. Determined attacks
were made by the Turks, but In each
instance repulsed by the Montent-
green's. Bonsa Petreaoh had throw n
up two rows OF entertainments. Pc
hind these ramparts the Montenegrins
fought with safe retreat into the
wooded hills always open behind
them. The third advance OF the Turks
was made with eight battalions and
by All Ssib in person, flushed with
the victories. The Montenegrins saw
their enemies come up to attack with
little heart. Therefore they RETAINED
from firing until they were within
two hundred yards, and then poured .
deadly volley into their enemy's front.
A small body of Montenegrin horse
men dashed out from the other side
and fell upon the TANKS. AT first the
flank wavered, but rapidly changing
front killed off the attacking party.
The Turkish center came up with
out hating until 1t received the second
volley. Then, through some mistaken
orders or because OF Discrimination to
advance, the Turks halted. The Mon.
tenegrins sprang over the parapet OF
their entertainments and attacked the
column with bay0nets. The Turks
broke, but were partially rallied by
Ali Saib, and fell back about two miles
In tolerable shape to an open piece of
country. Meanwhile the Montenegrins
had reformed and pursued the Turks.
The retreat soon became q r0ut, and
the Montenegrin horsemen pursued
the Turks to Spiez. The Turkish dead
at Plana and along the road certainly
equaled two thousand men, besides
many wounded and some prisoners.

neoted with Flakes Bulletin, and at
the time OF his death, treasurer OF
Galveston county, committed suicide
In his Office on tho Strand, at eight
o'clock this morning, by shooting
himself In the right temple. A few
weeks ago Mr.. Rlnker obtained,
through II Chicago divorce agency, a
decree from court In Utah, divoroing
him nom his first wife, Mary Rinker,
with whom he had lived for many
years, happily as WAS generally sup
posed, and who had borne him five
children. Upon the receipt OF the do
cree of divorce, Mrs. Rlnker and
children were sent to New Braunsfels
on visit to relatives, About year
previous to this date, Rinker met Miss
Lula Walters, bright, chatty blonde
OF eighteen, who at once won his sim
cere admiration. Noted, popular, and
OF pleasing address, II was not long
before Rinker won her affections.
The intimacy which ensaed was dis
approved OF by the young lady's
mother, and ended In his being re-
fused admittanoe to the house.
Through q mutual friend, who
played the role OF sutton, inter-
views, promenades, meetings, and
buggy rides were arranged for the
loving pair. The apparent courtshir
of the mutual friend, whose addresses
were favored and seconded by the
young lady's mother went OH fol
months, and the marriage of the seem
ing lovers was town gossip.
These meetings ended in a PROMISE
OF marriage, the day Rinker woulC
place In her hands decree of divorce

stituted ss above stated, and on the
5th instant the papers handed to the

Houston, where, the following day,
the mutual friend and Miss Lula Wal
tiers joined him. The guilty pair were
duly married, and some hours after
wards took the train for ST. Louis,
from whence they were induced by
Rinker's friend TO return to this city.
They arrived here on Saturday night,
stopping at the Glrardin house. On
Sunday evening Rinker took his sec
ond wife to her mothers house, pro-
posing to return to his own home to-
day. Leaving the house, in q gloomy
mood, he walked to his Office and
ended his life. His friends, believing
him insane, were hopeful of bringing
about satisfactory adjustment OF his
affairs. He will be buried from his
old home ut 8 o'clock tomorrow even
