How TO AVOID BAD HUsBANDs.--!Never
marry for wealth. A womans life consis-
teth not in the things she possesses.
Never marry q fop, who struts about
dandy-Iike in his gloves and %rufles, with .
silver headed cane, and rings upon his
fingers. Beware! There is a trap.
Never marry a niggardly, close listed
mean, sordid wretch, who saves every pen
ny, or spends it grudgingly. Take care
lest he stint you to death.
Never, marry a stranger. whose character
is not known or tested. Some girls jump
into the fire not knowing.
Never marry a man who treats his moth
er or sister unkindly or indiferently. Such
treatment is a sure ind. cation of q mean
and wicked man.
Never on any account marry a gambler,
a p~refane person, or one who in the least
speaks lightly of God or religion. Such a
man will never make a good husband.

Miss Lucille Clinton, a handsome young
artist, who leads a kind of hermit life in
her studio at Broadway and Eighteenth
street, is in love with crickets and cats.
About ten years ago Miss Clinton, being
then a young very young-school girl,
read Dickens story of THE Cricket on the
Hearth" Miss Clinton was so affected by
the story that she determined to have a
for DAYS and weeks before she ever heard a
cricket, and it was a long time after she
did hear the first cricket that she was able
to find and capture one, so deceptive IS the
voice and so shy are the movements of the
cricket. Then it was a long time again be-
fore the young admirer of crickets learned
enough about the wants and habits of those
~sprightlv creatul eS to lie able 10 carry them
through the winter alive and bring up the
Young in the so'ing. She was every pa
tent. though. and now what Miss Clinton
dOsen t know about crickets isn't worth
knowing. She has a large : emery full
of cricketS. and a la~ge quantity OF eggs
that are expected to produce Il good many
more crickctS. if no mis- sortunc happens
Lust evening Miss Clinton gave a cricket
soiree. having invited a number OF pers~ns
in to hear the crickctS sing. The concert
was give n by about 100 stalwart crickets.
The listeners, all but Miss Clinton, were
ready TO make affidavit that ali the ciick-
cts sang exactly alike and dreadfulIy out Of
tune. But Miss Clinton was equally posi-
tive that each cricket had a voice the differ
Cd from the voices of all Other r cketS and
she ought 20 know.-N. \. Sun.

The Coleman Courant says: "SOme are
under the impression that they can vote in
any voting precinct within their justice pre-
cinct, but this is mistake. No one can
vote in any voting precinct except the one
in which he lives, the Dallas HERALD to the
contrlry, notwithstanding" The Dallas
HERALD never said any such thing as the
Courant charges. The HERALD for two
years and a half has off and on discussed this
very question and has always said that every
voter, must, under the election law, vote in
his election precint. 1t was the discussion OF
this question and the proof of the fact from
the law itself by the HERALD, that caused
the establishment of the voting precinct at
the fair grounds, just outside Of the city
limits, for the. accommodation Of our sub
urban citizens.

Our telegraphic dispatches this morning
tell us of terrible accident at Jersey City,
New Jersey, just across the river from New
York. 1t seems thata tunnel Is being con-
structed under the Hudson river, and Gals
son gave way, causing the death of twenty
men out of twenty-eight. The engineers in
charge of the work, lay the disaster to the
negligence OF the men in not closing tightly
the air-lock. Whoever may be to blame,
aad it is not for us to say at this writing,
twenty lives are lost and there is mourning in
many households. These accidents are OF
too frequent occurrence, and when such an
one occurs, if it be by the negligence of any
oss in authority, he should be held to strict
accountability.

SOME time since it was fashionable with
some of the press to abuse the jury and then
the doctor experts in the Currie case. Re.
faction and time have produced change,
and now it is pretty generally conceded that
the trouble lies in the direction pointed on,
by the HERALD in tho first instance, to-wit
the detection of the law that compels &C,
quittance in ali such cases as Currie's was
proven to be. Recent communications in the
Galveston News, of logical ability and replete
with legal lore andiust views, set forth the
real trouble and propose to the next legs
ture certain remedies 10 cure the evil. 1t il
