Nearly 10000 emi9rants have arrived in this
country since the first of January and it is esti-
mated that at least 10000 more will come by the
end of the year. In point of numbers the Ger
mans are first and next in the order named,
come Irish, English, swedes Scotch, Norwegians
Swiss, Russians, Welsh and French. The COM
missioners OF immigration estimate that upon an
average the immigrants have brought $40 each
In money and personal property to the same
value. This would make total of 1922, 26O, 900
thus brought into this country and distributed

1t is said that at no period since the flush
times Of the war has there been so much indul-
gence In stock speculation In Washington as at
present. Indeed some authorities put the mania
higher now than then, and In support of their
view quote the fact that one or more "bucket
shops Whatever they may be,-are In success
full operation here. While this activity may be
regarded in one sense as an evidence of business
prosperity, it Is not a healthy sign. Where
stocks are bought outright and paid for, as an
investment and held for the interest they pay or
for rise In price, 1t is all well enough; but
specializing "on margin" is too much like buy
Ing lottery tickets or gambling with cards to
commend itself as safe or proper proceeding.
And not the least Objectionable feature Of that
style OF business is the inducement it holds out
to operators OF small resources who are thus
tempted not only to use their own limited
means in the hope of increasing them, but are
also tempted to appropriate money belonging to
their employers or others placing confidence in
them, In the vain hope of making good the
losses they have sustained. Then follows the
Old story Of exposure and disgrace, even if well
merited punishment be escaped.

From all quarters we have complaints of the
working of the new transfer system adopted by
the Washington and Georgetown tramway COM
pany, and especially of the ruffianly treatment
experienced by respectable citizens from the
transfer men at 18th street and Pennsylvania

these fmpositions at once. The road is rapidly
getting as odious in the public regard as it was
in the hands of the late New York management,
of unpleasant memory.

Handsome as a Caucasian girl is
the highest tribute which a Turk can
pay to female lo%veliness. Beautiful
features, lovely eyes, and a matchless
complexion are the inheritance of a
race with which the principal nations
now inhabiting Europe are supposed
to have a common origin. In every
Caucasian home, whether rich or poor,
tho daughters are the real mistresses
Of the house, idolized by their parents,
and kept from every toll which might
impair their personal charms. They
live a happy life under the maternal
roof; but all this indulgence ceases as
soon as they marry. Hard work in
the fields and household drudgery is
the lot of the Caucasian matron, and
soon take away the bloom of her youth;
so much that generally after n year
of married life she appears q mere
wreck Of her former self. The wife
of the Caucasian mountaineer has to
do everything-till the soil, carry
water and fuel, tend the horses aud
cattle, grind the corn, and prepare the
food, besides having TO weave cloth
and the linen necessary for the mem
bers of her family, and make their
garments aud shoes.

A BAsHrUL BRIDE,
Her Matrimonial Folly Costs Her a Hus'
band.

St. Louis Timos-Journal.l
The remarkable divorce case of
John VS.. Mary Brunick was decided
yesterday by Judge Thayer granting
the decree to the husband.
John and Mary we're married on the
9TH of December, 1873, and after the
congratulations had been poured out
upon the young couple and all the
guests had retired, it occurred to
John that it would be we'll to repair
to the bridal couch. Young husbands
a readily imagine the establishment
Of John when his blushing bride, in
her most bewitching night robe, drew
herself up proudly by the bedside and
putting one delicate little foot forward
upon the mossrose carpet, remarked
I'VE are married, but we have gone
far enough. Good night" John was
rewarded with a kiss, and then a soft
hand waved in the direction of the
door leading into another bed-cham-
Der.
John was not a graduate of the
school of platonic love and the situa-
ton was entirely new to him, but
words and entreaties and even tears
were of no avail. The bride of a few
hours babe him retire, and in a twink
ling the snowy drapery Of the nuptial
couch embodied in sweet repose and
virgin innocence the fair form of the
pure Mary.
Such a condition of affairs did not
lead to much harmony, and John
might have expressed somewhat
warmly his practical ideas concerning
platonic affection. In any case, the
young bride sobbed herself into q
pretty pet and tOddled off home to
her mamma. The husband brought
his grievance to the ears of the court
and obtained relief; that is to say, a
decree Of divorce was granted to him.

Both men are Of respectable pa
rents, and John Kell is known all
over the county as a quiet, p~eaceable
man. Smith is a nephew eff ex-Con.
gresham Brown, of Kentucky, and
has a fine mother and sister. His
father, too, is a gentleman in every
sense Of the word.
Smith had a knife in his hand when
he fell. The wound is bleeding inter
nally. He slept through the night,
but spit considerable blood. and at
the time this goes to you he is said
to be dying. His father is with him.
Kell has not yet been arrested. The
greatest excitement prevails, as this
is the first shooting affair that has
occurred in our town for a long time.
