QUEER CASE.

New York, 20 - Yesterd y Judge
Otterburp. of Jefferson Market police
court, on the application OF Mrs. Deha
Little, a lady 20 years of age, residing on
| East Tenth, issued y warrant for Inc
arrest of James Z. Williams and Fanny
| Williams, his wife, whom Mrs. Liltle
charges with perjury In swearing 70
false afidavits on which, in October
1873, she was sent to the workhouse by
the late Police Justice KasmiD. WIZ
| liams was arrested to-day and brought TO
court, but his wife was i'll aud contiued to
| bed. Mrs. Little 10 telling her story,
said she married Willism Little, proml-
| nent LAWYER of San Francisco, in which
city she lived until June, 1873. During
the Buchanan campsin Little went TO
| Washington In q governmental capacity,
where he died Of pneumonia. She took
| i'll and 1t was supposed she was dying
! when word was sent 10 her nephew ana
niece in this city. The former went on
there, and as she was possessed or con-
siderable property he persuaded Ter to
sign a paper which she thought was
limited power of attorney but which was
in reality a conveyance Of her property
to him. She recovered AMI accompanied
her nephew 10 this city, ARRIVING here IN
June, 1873. After the money she had
with her was spent, Williams and his
wife began TO i'll treat her till finally she
announced her intention Of returning to
San Francisco, her relatives agreed,
and on October 8lh q carriage was
ordered 10 take her to the depot.
A strange man then appeared and took
charge of Mrs. Little, and she was driven
to the Toombs, where Police Justice
Kasmin come out and looked at her,
and after reading some aftidavits, which
Mrs Little says were false, he signed a |
paper committing her TO the worllhouse |
for six months, as a habitusl drunkard. |
After her release she went to her neph- |
ew's to demand her property. The door
was shut in her face. She brought the
charge Of grand larceny against her
nephew and neice, after she came out of
he workhouse, and they were held for
rial at the general sessions court, but
,wing to some unknown circumstances
pail was discharged, and the case never
cached q trial. Mrs. Little produced
Witnesses, to-day, who swore that she
vas not a habitual drunkard. Williams
waived an examination, and his bail was
ixed at 81, 600. The worst feature in the
ase IS that the statements said to be
worn to by Mrs Little before Judge
kasmin, and said to be signed by her
Win an y as her mark, she states posi-
lively that she never saw. In c0rrObora-

New York, 20.-The Herald, noticing
The order received by ths Winchester

government, says: This Is the first order,
we believe, ever given by the Chinese

of guns have been bought in England

believed that the Chi ese have been
quietly arming ever since Beaeonsfield
has been in office; that English officers
have been training Chinese troops, and
that Beaconsfeld is determined TO exc
cute a grand coup and to astonish the
world By bringing China to the front as
a great military power, to checkmate the
designs of Russia 10 Central Asia. The
seizure of Herat by the Persian govern
ment, with the sanction of England, is
TO be next in order, and it is
believed that at the very crisis of the par
canvass in England the fact
will come out that with the help of the
Chinese and Persians the Russians will
be driven out Of Central Asis, and all
Tears that England may lose Ind a be set
1t rest for this generation.

Sound Sense.

London, 2O.-The Times article on the
Panama Ship Canal, to-day, ssys with
reference TO the Presidents message to
Congress and resolutions of the select
committee of the House: According to
these two statements, had the Colombian
confederation itself taken charge of the
project, the United States would have
been justified in prohibiting the work.
That the United States, by furnishing
the money, should obtain the specisl right
to watch over the safety and use Of the
new channel, is what Europe, and par
ticularly Great Britain, would most OF
all desire but the world Is entitled to ask
the United States to make up their MIND
either TO let Lesseps do the thing himself
by the resources at command or 10
charge themselves with the task.

ment.
London, 20 The campaign increase:
in activity. Liberals seem more conf
dent. Their organs publish an over
whelming victory. Gladston's speeches
occupy more space in newspapers than
those of all other candidates thgether.
Gladstone made bitter denunciation OF
Austria in his first speech at Edinburgh.
A correspondent reported that the En-
peror of Austria has told the British am
bassador that Gladstone disapproved
Austria's foreign policy. The Emperor
hoped Beaconsfeld would be successful
in the election. Gladstone, repeating
this statement said If the electors APP
proved Austria's foreign policy. ne
would advise them to vote for the reten-
ton of the Beaconsfeld ministry.
Austria, he said, has ever been the I'M
finching enemy Of freedom in every
country of Europe, and there is not a
spot on the whole map where one could
place his finger, ard say, There Austria
did good"
John Bright, speaking at Birmingham,
said: "We are this moment witnessing
the dying hours Of the worst of modern
psrliaments, and beholding the spectacle
Of the worst of administrations, brought
up for judgment. Conservatives con-
duct the campaign more quietly, but
every doubtful seat will be contested to
the bitter end"

The Dix Persecution.

New York, 2O.-Ihe unknown perse-
cutor of Dix, Trinity Church rector,
after publishing impudent warning notes
in the newspapers, yesterday resumed
his malicious attacks, sending dozens Of
persons to the rector's house on various
forged notes. A large force Of detectives
is at work on the case. 1t is privately
surmised that the person may be q
parishner of one of the Trinity chapels,
whose mind has been rendered unsound
by religious questions, and like good
many admirers Of Dix in former times,
was aliented and embittered against him
by the la.ter's marrisge few years ago.

Fashion Notes.


Very wide scaris of India muslin
edged with plaitings and insertions of
real Valenciennes lace are imported.
Foulard silk edged with lace makes
very pretty and becoming morning caps.
Handkcrchiels and neckerchiefs are
often made to correspond.
The brightest shades of turkey red,
old gold, helioIope and peacock blue
are used as Innings, bands and facings
on street dresses. Too lavish use Of
these colors, however, renders the
wearer very conspicuous.
The prcttiest inexpensive wash
dresses are made at home, us the taste
of a large proportion of American ladies
is utterly misunderstood by the manu-
facturors of "ready-made " garments
Ostrich tips trim more round hats
than artificial flowers do, but red cur
rants, gooseberries, and other summer
small fruits are the favorite garnitures
of hats and bonnets of ceremony.
Mountain and country fatigue suits
are made of light flannel stuifs, il, kilt
and blouse style, with scarf sashes of
the same, embroidered at the ends with
Kensington stitch in bright woods, the
larger sailor collars and deep cuffs hay
ing the same ornamentation.
For elderly ladies black French lace or
else Breton is used for trimming morn
ing robes. and more quaint colors are
selected i'll the foulard.
Square linen cuffs, or else those made
of two folds of the linen, are trimmed to
match with embroidery, and are then
worn outside the sleeves.
Sheer linen is being made into large
collarettes, almost rs broad us fchu,
and edged with lace or embroidery.
They are round at the back and are
pointed low in front, being quite open
ut the throat.
Sometimes instead of a regular guimpe
u large three corner neckerchief is worn
with low-throated dresses. 1t is MADE
of red or blue Surah, finished with
broad hem, and is tied loosely in sailor
fashion.
The foulards, lawns and percales, are
often imported with borders along the
selvedge, and when this is not the case
some striped material can be used in
stead, or else the border is of plain
solid color.
The graceful Vatican basque dress is
u stylish design for foulard, Surah, pom
gee and other silk dresses, and is also
copied when wash goods, such rs lawn,
percale and gingham, are to be made in
nm elaborate style.

WHERE THE LOSS WAS.

A young man who belonged to an
excursion party visiting Detroit last
week, called at the City Hall to make
complaint to the Chief of Police that
be had been robbed of his watch.
"What sort of watch was it y" in
quired the Chief.
"Well, it was kinder old-fashioned,
but it kept the straightost time you
ever saw. Every clock within four
miles of our house was run by that
watch"
"What was it worth ?"
"Well Id been offered seven dollars
for it"
at isn't such a great less, then ?"
ut isn't the money value that hurts
me, though l don't care to lose seven
dollars any more than any other man.
You see, it was the only time-piece
We had to run our prayer-meeting by,
and when the Deacon rose up and
asked me what time it was, the mint
| begun to haul out that ticker every
other young man dropped his head,
and every gal picked up her ears and
ached for me to beau her home. 1t
made me solid all along the town-line
and put me ahead at country dances,
and I've either got to get it back or
90 homo and tell the folks that |
came across blamed fool and sold it
for twenty"
"And you wouldn't do that?"
81 might, you know, but the mint
the old man wanted to give me his
note for nineteen Of it I'd have to
own up or shake his paper, and dads
a man who backs his notes with a fist
as big as the top of your hat DE
