tbis country. Here, in majority toi
cases, it is purely speculative or the re-
suit of fpersopal or professional exertion,
and altogether transitory in its nature.
1t must be considered, also, that a given
sum of money represents more among
all the European continental nations
than it does in this country or in Eng
land. Its purchasing power in France,
Prussia, Spain, and Italy, is nearly
double. As the two extremes of great
wealth and abject poverty generally go
hand in hand, comfortable mediocrity,
like that of Prussia, is no unfavorable
indication of national prosperity.
THE Supreme Court of New York
city is entertaining rather novel suit.
Mr.. Samuel NJ. Clark has commenced
proceedings against his wife, Mary
Adelaide, to recover the sum Of ten
thousand dollars which he alleges she
promised, before marriage, to give him
out and out if he would marry her. AT
the time of this ante-nuptial contract,
the said Mary A. was a brevet widow of
forty-fve years, having married
daughter and divorced husband.
Clark, the plaintiff, at the time was only
thirty-two, mere chicken, as it were.
He says that as soon as Mary obtained a
divorce from her first husband, she pro-
ceeded to fall in love with him, and of
fered to give him $4,000 if he would
marry her--the money to be paid over
az soon as the ceremony was performed.
Knowing that she was wealthy-worth
clear $l00,000-he entered into the con-
tract in 1873. For two or three years
she travelled him over Europe, boarded
him and paid all his expenses, but de-
ferred paying over the $4,000, although
often requested 50 to do, and finally ut
terly repudiated the bargain. About
this time Clark found ont that his wife,
in addition to her other property, was
possessed of an ungovernable temper,
and his life was made miserable. Loves
young dream vanished with the hope of
the $4,000, and he was compelled to
leave her. He now sues for the amount
and six years interest, and enjoins his
wife from disposing of her bank stock.

A Gang of Thieves Visit the Hotel Harrow
at Lake Minnetonka.
Added to all the horrors of bad luck which
has attended the Hotel Harrow and Mime
tonka Park association, band of robbers
no reference to the gospel mono, changers
are now infesting the locality. The robbers
referred to are of the midnight order. and
seek wealth in sums exceeding twenty-five
cents, no matter how fast the twenty-fives
accumulate towards the dollar of our dads.
For some time losses by burglary or
snesking have occurred with alarming fre-
quency about Hotel Harrow, Excelsior and
other abodes of the Park neighborhood.
These robberles have been kept. secret, no
report made of them, to save the name of
the place. This has been the way the pro-
prietors have acted to prevent the
public from getting hold of the
uncertainty of portable property, but some
of the losers have not been 80 content.
About three days ago, police headquar-
ters received letter from Excelsior stating
that valuable ring had been stol n there.
The gew-gaw was described as an eight stone
cluster diamond. Detective Brisette was
commissioned to undertake the
job of recovering it. He
put himself in communication
with s. T. Grutf, the writer of the letter,
and learning all the facts, Detective Bresette
made pilgrimage to La Crosse, Wis. Yes

bott, interested herself in their behalf and
succeeded in raising enough money to Sc
cure the appeal. For this she has received
the most fulsome praise. She called upon
her prots ges in prison the other day. and
the New York papers inform Us that the
meeting with Mrs. Smith was most affect
ing. The pair fell into each others arms
and wept copiously, the tears of the presum-
eddy pure and talented prima donna ming
ling with those of the condemned
adulteress and murderer. Miss Abbott CON
doled with Mrs. Smith and spoke words of
comfort and encouragement, and finally left
the prison weeping most conspicuously. It
is alleged by some uncharitable persons that
in getting up this scene Miss Abbott had an
eye to business-used novel device for
eeping her name before the public in an
ticipation of the coming opera season.
Whether this may be so or not
commendable in her to procure the
money necessary to give those wretched peo-
pie another chance for their lives, but it was
indicate, unladylike and unworthy of a
pure woman to SO conspicuously endeavor to
create public sympathy in behalf of pair
of depraved and wholly irreclaimable villains
as these, and so her act will be regarded by
all respectable people.
Is it any wonder that murders are of such
frequent occurrence when We see how the per-
petrators are ionized? When presumably
respectable women voluntarily became the
intimates of known murderers and adulter-
ers is it any wonder that the standard Of
morality is being constantly lowered? vi
cious men and vicious women very readily
come to crave the attentions from those
above them in the scale of life, and in order
to win it connive at and
perpetrate deeds of blood The more fend-
ish the crime the moro certain are they of
adulation, and this they fully understand.
We submit that such mania has gone too
far, and that it is time it was checked. A
woman who so far degrades herself as to be-
come an associate of criminals, ought to be
ostracised from all decent society, for it is
only question of time and opportunity when
she herself will become criminal. It is a
morbid state of existence, q thoroughly
reprehensible and criminal practice that
should be stopped. ..

MURDER WORSHIP.

there IS great deal of maudlin senti-

guilty of the most heinous crimes that seems
to pervade all classes of society. The worse

they were in daily receipt of visits from
many leading ladies' of the city, who showered
fruits, flowers and cigars upon them without
stint and in such manner as to lead the

had committed meritorious act. When it
IS taken into consideration that these
criminals had attempted nameless out
rage upon young girl and then bru-

murder worship is afforded by the Smith

police officer was brutally murdered-chop

paramour, SO that he might not interfere
with their illicit love. The crime was of
unheard of atrocity, and sent a thrill

that the State is practically bankrupt. The

reason for the present stringency, but it
