A man by the name of Smith was
arrested by deputy sheriff Harris, at
Independence, on charge of changing
his name and fraudulently using GER
tificates and seal of Clerk of District
Court. Said changing Of name and
fraudulent use of certificate and seal
was in reference to a divorce formerly
granted in the District Court, and was
done for the purpose of aiding said
Smith in getting married again.
His preliminary examination is being
had as we 90 to press, Thursday after
noon, the result of which we will state
next week.
The Tallahassee Mission, in the In
dian Territory, where Misses Phila
Cole. Minnie Richards and Maggie
Steele, of this place, were employed,
was burned last Sunday night. No
lives were lost, but the girls from here
and Indians attending school at the
Mission, lost almost everything ex-
cept the clothing they were wearing.
There were one hundred or more In
dian boys and girls of various ages be-
ing instructed at this Mission school,
and it's destruction at this season of the
year will necessarily deprive them of
school privileges for some time. Tai
lehassee Mission belonged to and was
supported by the Presbyterian Board
of Foreign Missions. Misses Richards,
Cole and Steele returned home yester-
day.

"A Novel Divorce Case,

There isn't much humor In law but some
things that come out of the law are rather
funny. One Of these happened the other
day and caused smiles all around, exccnt
on one mans face. This man had come
from Nevada at the request of q lawyer to
nave decree OF divorce set aside He had
packed OIL from his wife several years ago,
ana the woman afterwards married the
lawyer, first, however, going through the
form OF getting divorce. She had moi,
been long married to the lawyer when he
followed tho example of her first husband
ny Withdrawing from her company. Then
learning that there had been some jrrcpul.
arity about the divorce. he set out to hun,
up the original husband. Hc discovered
him in Nevada and persuaded him to come
to New York The husband had not be-
tore heard of the divorce, and when the
lawyer told him about it he was mad
enough to pitch III and smash it to pieces.

The Dccca musIlns Of India arc among
the most wonderful evidences Of the hand
skill of the strange people of tho myslcri-
GUS East. These fabrics, which are spun
and woven entirely by hand, and are The
product of obscure end curious processes,
unknown to and unattanablc by the West
crn nations, like the fabrications of Damas-
Gus steel and the making Of camcl's hair

and they illustrate the poetry of cotton.
The most delicate of these fabrics is known
by the name of "wovcn air. 1t can only
be made in the early morning and in the
evenings, when the air is full Of moisture
and the dew is on the grass. The process
cs by which 1t is woven are kept secret, and
people who do the work are compelled first
to pass througha long course of training
and initiation. Their delicate wares are of
such ethereal texture as to bo almost nvisi

Air ana Food.

An English scientific paper remarks us Il
curious physiological fact, that although
open air life is SO favorable to health, vet il
has the apparent effect of sunting growth
IN early youth. While the children OF
wrll-to- do parents, carefully housed and
tended, arc taller for their age than the
children Of the poor, they are not SO strong
in after years. 1.-The laborcrs' children, for
instance, who play in tho lonely country
roads and fields nll day, whose parents lock
their cottage doors on leaving for their work
in the morning, SO that their ollsprings shall
not gain entrance and do mischief, are al
most invariably short for their age. The
children Of working farmers exhibit tho
same pcculiarity. After sixteen or eighteen,
after years of hesitation as it were, the lads
shoot up, and become great, huliing broad
shouldcrcd fellows, possessed of immense
strength. Hence it would seem that in
door life forces growth Mt the wrong period,
and SO injurcs." The Inference is pInusi-
bic, but is wide Of the mark. The children
Of the wcll-lo-do are tall, not because they
are kept indoors, but because they arc well
fed and srvcd from severe exposure. The
children Of the poor are stumtcd, not by too
much sun and air, but because they are iii
fed. Give the first class plenty of outdoor
play, with the proper diet, and they will be
strong rs well as tall Give to the laborcrs'
children the food suitable for their years,
and no amount OF sun and wind will stunt
them. On the contrary, they will not have
to wait till age brings capacity to turn
strong food to bone and muscle, and time
to overcome the evil effects Of hard times
in early life; but they will grow from the
first, steadily and s,lrdiy.

Tho Trials or M Engaged Girl.

After all, the yoke Of marriage i'm an ap-
paratus that should sit on two pair of
shoulders; aud there is nothing very seem
~ IN seeing girl wait to wear her own
part OF 1t until it has been nicely padded
with quilted satin. Looking at the matter
from less elevated point OF view, long
engagements are rather tircsomc in restrict
ing the liberty of girls. Miss Jenny, who
Is going to marry MIR. Simpson as soon as
that hopeful young man gets living. is
oDllgcu III the meantime to deny herself
many pleasures, lest Simpson should take
onensc. She must cschcw balls; she must
lake care that nobody makes love to her; /;
and for this purpose she is obliged to let ali
chance concrs be speedily informed of her
engagement. UnhappiIy, the symbolism
Oh rInSs Is always unrcgardcd, else the
chance comcrs might discover the fact for
themselves by looking at the second finger
OF Miss Jcnny's left hand. II Jenny has
no sisters to talk of her bc,rothal, and if
her mother does not accept timely hints to
mention II on every necessary occasion, or
the engagement is not announced the girl is
rather embarrassed for words in which TO
convey the news uclicatcly to strangers.
She cannot alude to Mr.. Simpson as
"Johnny would be too familiar:
she cannot speak of him as ''Simpson," for
this would sound strange; but if she refers
to him frequently us "Mr. Simpson, :"
strangers might draw undesirable differences
from her apparent familiarity with person
thus coldly specified. Then the engaged
girl has to put up with great deal oi chalf.
which is only pleasing Tor while, and ar-
tcrward becomes in,olcrable. The trials
Of matrlmony are frequently commended to
her impatient attention by way of putcrnal
rcbuke: "Ah, my dear, you will lind out
that | was right when you are wife your
sclf!' and so forth; or Il snub is pu, upon
her too hasty wish to consider herself free
by the reminder that there is many Il slip
between the cup and the llp. Sometimes
Simpson is actually held up TO her as Il
bogcy: "My dear, l don't think Mr..
Simpson would quite approve Of your
wearing that cherry rbDon;' "Jcnv.
dear, think Mr.. Simpson would be sadly
gricved if he heard you express those opin-
lons;" or, "Jcnny, 1 am sure Mr.. Simpson
world not think it proper that you should
play croqnct with Capt. Mallc," There IS
enough in all this to make grl 81, down
and scream.
