We are indebted to Constable Phelps,

Standard, published at Picton, Nova
Scotia, containing an account of five
babies at one birth. Mr.. Phelps, who
was on visit to Nova Scotia, saw the
babies after death. The Standard SAYS /:
On Sunday morning last, DR.. William
Fraser, of New Glasgow, was summoned

Mr.. Adam Murray. in the settlement
called Egypt, about four miles from New
GLASGOW, on the Glenfalloch ROAD. Mr..
Murray's family at the time of the doc
tors arrival consisted of five children,
three girls and two boys, all perfectly
formed, but very miniature specimens Of
humanity Three of the children were
reported dead on the evening of the first
day, and on Monday fonrth.
A large number of people have gone to
see the most wonderful progeny. On
Monday the four dead ones were laid
side by side in neat rosewood casket,

dead ones were to have been buried on
Wednesday afternoon. On Tuesday Mr..

living and dead, and will shortly pub

eighteen children, twins three times.
The father is on ordinary-looking sam
pie of physical development; in fact, is
below the average in stature and bodily
proportions. Persons who have seen the
children describe them as positively
beautiful, the dead ones more re-
sembling works Of art in wax than nat

All the children are now dead, the last

COLUMBUS, April 9-In the Senate the
Committee to investigate alleged frauds in
the letting of the contract for printing the
Revised Statutes, submitted report.
T ey fully exonerate the ttorney General,
Secretary of State and Supervisor of Pub
lie Printing from any improper condnct ~

700 copies of statutes in excess of the num-
ber authorized by law. They also inquired
into certain abuses on the part of State
officials, which were of long standing but
not of serious character, and which have
been discontinued since attention was
called to them. The Committee submit in

Chief of Police Donovan, who helped
Deputy Sheriff Tingie to get on the track
OF the gypsies who robbed Mr.. Jessop,
remembering the postal-card description
of the gypsies who were wanted in Vir-
ginia, wrote to Detective Ween for par
tieulars.
On receipt of the particulars asked for,
he telegraphed Mr.. Ween 20 come North
with the planter who had been robbed.
Mr.. Trout went to Raymond street Jail
yesterday, and was concealed where he
could see and not be seen. Then thirteen
women, including the gypsy fortune
teller, were marched in front of him. He
identified Mrs. Worton the instant he
saw her thin olive face and piercing black
eyes.
The gypsies remained unconscious of
the fresh complaint against them until
they appeared in Justice Walsh's Court
in the afternoon. They were before JUS
tice Gilbert in the morning on a writ of
habeas corpus, and he remanded them
until Wednesday to await the arrival of
the requisition papers, but granted writ
of certiorari to bring their case up for
review at that time. Then the gypsies
appeared in Justice Walsh's Court. The
fortune teller wore long black cloak
and tight-fitting black velvet bonnet.
She is taller than her husband, limo
theus Worton, who seems to be at her
command.
Justice Walsh listened patiently to
their counsel's defamation against the
outrage of the Imprisonment of innocent
persons, and then quietly said that there
was another complaint against the de-
PENDANTS, based on an alleged theft of
$4,000. The gypsies looked intently at
the Justice, the fortune-teller bending
her statue-like form forward and turning
her head SO as to catch every word.
When Justice Walsh read the new COM
plant Timotheus Worton, who stood up
swinging his hat, turned his blue eyes
toward his wife's face as though to say:
"More persecution, my dear" Justice
Walsh committed the gypsies for ten
days on both charges. They slowly
passed into the prison, the fortune-teller
in front, holding her head aloft and her
body erect, while her portly husband fol-
lowed, swinging his hat
Mr.. Trout will begin suit in Hudson
County, N. j., where the gypsies have
property, 10 recover his money.

What is to become of our ex-Presi-
dents? is question that many third
termers ask. The New York Tribune
calls attention to the fact that George
Washington, when he left the White
House, did not cease in his duties to the
people, and was chosen Justice Of the
peace for his county in Virginia. His
successor, John Adams, followed his ex-
ample, and was justice of the peace at
Quincy for many years. Two other
Presidents-Tyler and Andrew johnson
did not retire altogether to private
life after they left the White House, and
both served their country in Congress
and in other positions of trust.

The announcement made by the Lon
don Standard that the King of Siam,
who is TO leave his capital, Bangkok,
early this month, to make a tour
through the chief European capitals
will, after short visit to England, come
hither, caused the wife of one Of the
Foreign Ministers to give me many in
teresting details concerning him. have
also had the privilege Of looking over a
large album containing many photo
graphs Of himself and his Ministers, of
statues of his ancestors, of his palaces
and many Of the Others public buildings
and objects of interest in his kingdom.
This valuable book belongs to the widow
of admiral Reynolds, u. s. N. He died
here last year. He went to Siam in
command of our inan-of-war, the Ten
nessee, early in 1875, and his wife was
with him there. As he was fortunately
able to do the King great favor in the
settlement Of some diplomatic question,
King Chula Concorn (for that is the
royal name) showed Admiral and Mrs.
Reynolds marked attention and present.
ed to the latter the album I have men,
toned as souvenir of her visit.
The couple dined in state with the
King, and Mrs. Reynolds was the first
woman of foreign birth who ever sat at
table with him. Judging from his pho
tographs and from what hear Of him,
he must be remarkably handsome.
Though only twenty-four years old, he
has harem. When Mrs. Reynolds
dined at the Siamese Court none of the
women Of the harem were present; but
when the Tennessee had advanced as
near as possible to the capital cisy--and
her size prevented her going up the river
as far as Bangkok--the King and his re-
tinue came to meet her in the royal
barges. The ladies of the harem were in
the last barge, but were not, of course,
permitted to disembark, as the King and
his male attendants did, who went on
board the Tennessee, and the King mani

agement of the vessel and its guns and
torpedoes.
The King is aboye medium height and
has remarkably fine figure. Neither in
form nor cast Of features does he resem-
BILE the Chinese or japanese, but his COM
plexion I am told is Of the same hue. His
eyes are especially large and wide-awake
looking. In one Of his photographs he
appears in pantaloons, but minus cloth
ing above the waist. In all the others he
wears handsome uniform and numer-
Gus decorations, and in one picture has
crown exactly like church steeple in
form. The pictures Of the public build
ings give one decided conviction that
architecture and other fine arts are far
more advanced in Siam than is generally
believed here. In one Of the Kings pic
lures he wears the grand Gordon Of the
Legion Of Honor. .4.
The Tennessee, Admiral Reynolds
ship, was, some one asserts, the first man
of-war which ever sailed up the river to
Bangkok, which was an additional reason
for the honors shown by it's government
to our naval officers.
