EXTRAORDINARY Treaty obligations
formed the subject Of decision in Ken
lucky court, whereby defaulting Treas
urer of Covington, in that State, succeeded
in evading trial for embeszlement. The
treasurer was extradited from Canada 10
answer three charges of forgery Of which
he was subsequently acquitted. He was
then about to be tried for embezzlement
when he demanded that he should be all
lowed to return to Canada, without trial
for this offence, on the ground that the
treaty obligations we're such that he could
not be tried for other offences than those
for which his extradition was asked. The
Court sustained his demand and discharged
the prisoner to give him an opportunity tc
return to his asylum in Canada within a
reasonable time. This is probably good
Inv, but, if 90, it is another evidence of the
necessity Of revisi ~ '''''" treaties.

In the EXTREMIST corner of the farthest back

minister from England, with his young daugh-
terby his side in her plain round hat and English
walking jacket. In the seat before him sat the
minister from Japan, who, at small distance,
looked like slim young boy, with dusky
cheek and black eyes, Opposite sat the wife of

Clara Morris is superstitious. At the.last re-
hearsal of new piece she often picks up the
nails on the stage; if she finds an odd number
she is firmly convinced that she will have good
luck during her engagement; if an even num-
ber she looks out for trouble. Knowing of this
feeling the manager of the Union Square
Theatre took pains to put three nails on the
stage at the last rehearsal of "Miss Mutton"
and to clear away all others. She found them
and was rejoiced, but dsmay seized her mo-
ment afterwards on picking up three other
nails making six in all. Her husband had
been at the same game with the manager and
they had thwarted each other. The run of the
piece was unlucky being interrupted by the
Brooklyn fire and by the serious illness of Miss
Morris
