A Observation-Disclosures Messen-
ger Humphrey had among his freight
last Saturday several hives of bees
and a Gagged panther. When met by
the south bound train he was in a
state of trepidation bordering on
frenzy. A number of bees having
escaped from their hives seemed to
enjoy torturing the panther, and the
growls of that animal, together with
the activity Of the bees, was calcu-
lated to try the nerves of stouter
man than the messenger-Er.

taken in by Miles, who continued the
chase to the line. Here he found Mai.
Walsh, of the Canadian mounted force,
who reported that he had taken charge
of the Indians, and Gen. Miles suggest
ed that Walsh send them off to such a
distance that it would be impracticable
for them to be constantly menacing
and crossing the line. Meantime Miles
had sent out scouting parties to corral
any wandering bands and prevent their
pursuing the buffalo, now working
south.
Gen. Miles further reports that he
has gobbled upa camp of British half
breeds on United States soil, who have
been trading ammunition and supplies
with Sitting Bulls followers. Miles
has sent the entire outfit south of the
Missouri, under guard, as prisoners.
Miles has also sent the Missouri, to pre-
vent communications, friendly or hos
tile, between them and Sitting Bull.
Gen. Terry is highly elated at the
success Of Gen. Miles, maneuyers,
which have been successful in every re-
spect, and exceeding the most sanguine
expectations.

"MADEMoIsELLE, MY MAMMA
The Interesting Illegitimate Offspring
Of Sarah Bernhardt.

Moneure d. Conway writes from
London: do not intend to throw a
stone at Mile. Bernhard. She and
George Eliot, and other eminent per-
sons who defy the customs of society,
are competent to judge of right and
wrong, and are free to act. 1 do not
judge them. But what 1 wish to point
out is the social phenomenon present
ed when the leaders of a society which
brushes thousands of poor girls in the
mire for Legitimate sexual relations
should at the same time lavish admira-
tion upon ONE of the same character
who happen to have talent. Sarah
Bernhard has never been married; she
has four children; she brought them to
London with her, and took in every
fine house where she was entertained, a
bright boy who called her "Mademoi-
sell, my mamma" There was no con-
cealment whatever. Fashionable Lon
don was at her feet. 1t was amply
demonstrated that fashionable English
society does not really respect these GUS
toms which it processes to hold essen
tial. The sanctity of marriage be-
comes more and more a thing for the
poor and ignorant-like orthodoxy. 1t
is well enough for common people to
fear hell. etc. This kind of talk has
long been familiar in the matter of re-
ligious dogmas, but it is now seen to be
the undertaking sentiment about the
marriage dogma, also.
Sarah Bernhardt is a woman of real
genius. l believe her to be a woman
of heart in these matters wherein it is
said to be more holy to obey custom. 1
a understand how the splendor of
genius display in her Phedre could hide
a multitude of sins even for the rigidly
righteous. But what 1 have observed
of her career among the a%ristocrats of
London leads me to feel that it is not
through overlooking her sins or for
getting them, but, to some extent, be-
cause of them, that she has enjoyed a
a brilliant apotheosis. The constant
gossip has lent a piquency TO her pres
ence, and the enthusiasm has been
quite as great among those who could
not understand or appreciate her per-
formances.

INGERSOLL'S FUNERAL GRAFTON.
An Eloquent Paragraph By Gail Hamil
ton.

In a recent issue of the New York
Independent, Gail Hamilton, in writing
Of the great high priest of unbelief and
of his love for his late brother, says:
sit fell out that this well-beloved
brother died. In the full vigor of his
days, suddenly a mortal anguish clutch
ed and conquered him, and those who
had hidden him a merry good night
heard never from his lips good-morn-
ing. thought it might be Gods own
way of revealing himself to a lost soul
and making him the exultant prophet
of a new faith who had been the high
priest of unbelief. Perhaps he might
grasp the truth of immortal life through
his immortal love and longing. Per-
haps, through sheer human impos-
sibility, to lose out of heart and hope
the brother when he had seen, he would
haply reach forth and grasp the God
whom he has never been able to see,
but who is not far from any one of us.
In such case what a force would be
brought over to the cause of religion.
The hour of burial came. 1 Watched in
tently, if through all the grief and
pain 1 might hear that small voice of
divine hope; and lol it came. With
voice wavering, low, scarcely audible,
heartbreaking in its strong repression,
but clearing, steadying, strengthening
as it struggled on, the suffering brother
paid his last tribute to his dead. For
the happy and banished past he brought
lilies with full hands. The dread void
| of the future he faced without fin
| ching, confessed over barren ignorance,
confronted its awful silence; but then
there came to him, just as there comes
to the whole human race, groaning and
travelling in the pain of separation, not
to the head demonstrable, but to the
heart imperious, the prescience of i'm
mortality, a star shining through the
gloom, the rustling whitewinged hope.
And more than this, borne onward by
the last whispering breath of sealed lips.
the strong man thrust aside for the
moment all the irresistible combinations
Of the cool and careful intellect, and,
needing only the cravings of his hungry
heart, cried out with a great and bitter
cry: LET us believe, in spite of doubts
and dogmas, Of fears and tears, that
these dear words are true of all the
countless deadl"

racy by w. II. Vanderbilt, G. M. Depue

tectives. This ends the whole case, as no
appeal is to be taken from the surrogate's S
