If anything will reconcile man to
old age it is to have beautiful young
lady rush up to him when the even
ing train comes IN, hug and kiss and
call him father. Ofcourse, there is a
mistake, and the thing has to be ex.
planned and forgotten. but while il
does last it is sweet enough to make
an old reprobate wish he were an
honest father.

a. Extraordinary Kissing Match.
AT a party OF young people in Par
is conversation happened to turn on
the subject of kissing, and the ques.
ton was propounded who ofthe young
men present could boast of having
given or being able to give his girl the
most kisses. Various were the replies
this question called out. Finally a
young man and the girl to whom he
was betrothed bet 200 francs that they
could kiss 10000 times in ten hours
providing they would be allowed to
take an occasional glass of wine "be-
tween" Two persons were appointed
committee to count the number of
kisses, and the work began. During
the first hour they counted 1000 kiss
es. During the second hour the kiss.
es were not nearly as numerous. for
they counted only 1000. After the
third hour, during which they man.
aged to score but $50, further opera
ton were brought to a sudden stand
still. The lips of the young man were
seized with a cramp, and he was car
ried OF in iainting condition. The
girl few days later was seized with
brain fever, which nearly carried her
OIL to land where kissing under any
form is unknown. When the people
who had won the bet demanded their
money, the parents of the girl refused
to pay her share of il. The matter
was then taken to tho courts, and
there il was decided that the bet must
he paid.

a HOLIDAY.

Sunday is a holiday in Paris. The
theatres aud concert halls are open,
while the parks are thronged with
pleasure seekers. As it is holiday
for servants us well as other work peo-
pie, many families of the middle class
dine out. and all the restaurants are
consequently fuller and gayer on Sun
day than ON any other day of the week.
The casinos are open as usual, the cir
cuses are filed with a special Sunday
audience, and all purveyers of amuse-
ments are beating the big drum to at
tract the public. With such a varied
programme, it is no wonder that a
man, no matter of what nationality
he may be, or what tastes he may have,
finds no difficulty in passing Sunday
in Paris. Picture galleries, churches,
elegant promenades, theatres, shows
in short, relaxation, amusements,
instruction or edifcation-are equally
within his reach. Even the lover:
of pulpit oratory can have their taste:
gratifed, for in the midst of all thi;
gayety the gospel is preached by Pro
testant and Catholic clergymen.

One Of the most remarkable stories
outside the regions Of fiction will en-.
gage the attention of the London Pro.
bate Court early next session. The
circumstances Of the case, stated in a
brief form, appear to be these; some
time ago a young gentlemen in nc.
cordancc with the provisions OF u will
in his favor, inherited an annual income
Of $4,000 and large estate situated
in by no means unimportant county
in England.
Ii was distinctly stipulated that the
f25. 900 should be the amount payable
during his celibacy, and that from
the day Of his marriage, il he con.
tracted marriage, the sum should be
increased to f5O,000 a year. Natur-
ally the fortunate heir had a decided
desire TO obtain the full amount 10
which he was entitled by wedlock, al
though he entertained the strongest
objections to compromising his freedom
by marriage.
The ingenious youth fully aud anx
iously considered the situation, and at
last decided upon the course which he
would pursue. Proceeding TO the Hay
market on a particular evening he
met young female whose acquain-
lance he had only made short time
previously, and whose position was
far removed in downward direction
from him. To this woman he made
overtures Of marriage, promising her
an annuity of 60. 900 in consideration
of her considering the marriage tie
dissolved a week after the performance
of the ceremony. The offer seems to
have been rejected and an Alternative
advanced. The woman, it appears.
signified her willingness to consent to
an arrangement by which the estate
of her sutton was conferred absolutely |
upon her for six months, at the end Of
which period it would revert to the
assignee, and she would then be en-
titled to her annual allowance Of |
q, 1000.
Finding that she would not recede
from this proposal, the youthful mil
lionaire reluctantly agreed to il, and
in the course Of time the marriage
ceremony was performed. At the end
Of the succeeding week, the tickle
youth. as determined upon, left his
spouse and betook himself TO his estate,
and there developed an illness from
which be never recovered. His i'll
ness having occurred within the six
months after his marriage. his whole
estate has passed to his wife, and his
relatives have had resort TO the ma.
,hinery Of the law to avert the ALSO
lutte succession. The case, | under
stand, is likely 10 come before the

A TOUCHING NARRATIvE.-Wt
once heard the following touching in.
cident: A, little boy had died. His
body was laid out in darkened, re-
tired room, waiting to be laid in the
cold, lone grave. His afflicted moth
er and bersaved little sister went in
to look at the sweet face of .he precious
sleeper, for his face was beautiful even
in death. As they stoOdgazing on
the face of one so beloved and cher
ished, the little girl asked to take his
hand. The mother at first did not
think it best, but the child repeated
the request and seemed very anxious
about it. She took the cold, bloodless
hand OF the sleeping boy and placed
it in the hands of the weeping sister.
The child looked at it a moment, car
ressed it fondly, and looking up to her
mother through tears of affection and
love said: "Mother, this hand never
struck me-" What could have been
more touching and more lovely?

Ii is thirty-iour years since large
crock Of butter was suspended by a
rope in the well on the farm of Abra.
ham $. Mylin in Lancaster, Penn.
This old custom was a good one for
keeping butter fresh, but this particu-
lar lot was destined to never be eaten,
for the rope broke, and for thirty-four
years it has rested securely in the bot
tom of the well. Last week the well
was cleaned out, and the butter was
again brought to light. 1t was found
to be as white as snow and as hard as
adamant. 1t was not to be eaten,
but kept rs relic, and certainly is
one OF the most peculiar in existence.

TIKI WOLF BOUNTY LAW.
W off Hunting Very Prohtuble-Ex
pense of the Law.

Under the wolf bounty law some
men are making considerable money.
Chairman Leibey, of the board of coun.
Ity commissioners, informs us that he
has given certificates for II right fore.
paws, so Of which were brought in by
one man. This man received a certif.
cate for $50 which he Immediately
cashed for S42; and he sold the skins
for 75 cents each, thus making S79.5o
in killing so wolves. Wolf hunting is
therefore a very profitable business.
There is a division Of opinion re.
speeding the wolf bounty law. 1t was
designed to protect sheep and provides
for bounties for coyote wolves as well
as the large gray fellows. Some sheer
men say they suffer no depredations
from the coyotes and therefore no
bounty should be paid for their fore.
paws. Then again, it is thought that
one dollar a pieceis too much, consid.
ering that the skins will fetch 75 cents
each. Fifty cents is a fair figure, and
one to which few would object. But
the law is law and will remain so for
two years at least. Possibly it may
be changed by the seventh Legislative
assembly.

How Far Oncers May Go in Prevent
ing the Escape OF Prisoners.

Since the killing of "Curley" by De-
tectives Llewsllyn and Boone May, and
McGinnis by Ben Morrison, temporary
deputy sheriff, there has been much
discussion among citizens generally as
to the right of an officer in shooting a
prisoner who is attempting to escape.
1t is held among many of our lawyers
that shooting is only justifiable in Off
e . when the prisoner is under arrest
for felony and then threatens the off,
GERS life in attempting to escape.
But for lesser grades it is either muir
der or manslaughter for an officer to
kill a fleeing prisoner. As to the rights
of an officer in the premises, the Albany
Lao Journal, n of the highest and
most respected legal authorities in the
United States, says:
While defendant lin a case in the
Tennessee supreme court), a constable
was conveying to Jail a prisoner con
victed of assault and battery and COM
united to Jail, the prisoner attempted
to escape. To prevent the escape de-
oAtSh GIVING hOoiCo " uaio,
shot and killed him. Held that the
homicide was not justifiable. In cases
where the person slain is arrested and
held in custody for a misdemeanor, and
he fly or attempt to escape, it will be
murder in the officer to kill him, al
though he cannot be otherwise over
taken. Yet under some cases it may
be only granddaughter, as, if it appears
that death was not intended. 1t is bet
ter to allow n guilty only of misde-
meanor to escape altogether than to
take his life. :
Our officers ~hereabouts would do well
to bear these facts in mind. We know
they do not wish to do anything illegal,
and it is well for them to know just
what is illegal.
