woman's Five-NIinute call.

Out of five minute call woman will
gather inspiration for good hours
speech when she gets home. She will
tell her husband-who is so interested,
you know-that Mrs. Stuckup has "new
furniture the second time within three
years, if Tn not mistaken, and lace cur
tains with lambrequins. and her black
silk dress made over, and her hair done
up in new way, higher than she used
to wear, is not becoming bit, and her
little girls got her hair banged, and all
dressed in white, and is going to Miss
Giddigurl's school in the fall, and her
cooks gone off mad, and she says she's
almost tired to death and is going to
Swampscott next week, and Miss Flirt's
going to have young Spoodlington after
all, and Miss Smiths going to give her a
pair of bouquet holders, she says they're
good enough for her, she got them cheap
up to Ragshop's, and Miss Ferguson's
got boy with lots of hair on its head
and looks 3 months old everybody says,
and Steve Beaker's awful dissipated
they say, and that Lovewel girls
father ordered him out of the house and
she's been taking on awful and declares
she will have him, and Stiggenses have
moved out of town, and the Browns have
LOST everything. and Miss Smiths bought
a whole piece of cotton cloth, and"
By this time the husband is asleep or
has fled. A man could never make as
much out of a weeks visit. All he
would remember would be that Browns
got a mighty pretty wife, OR keeps good
cigars, or some other equally inconse-
quential matter.

The Newest Mania

among fashionable women, married and
unmarried, is TO make their bedrooms
beautiful. The lately acquired taste for
decoration is now taking that turn, to
the neglect Of drawing-rooms and parlors.
Pillow-shams and bed-spreads are lux
uriously and extensively gotten up of
silk, satin, embroidery and lace; dress
ing cases are furnished with elaborate
taste and ingenious fancy work recep-
tacles for toilet and other articles. Bot
ties and boxes of the finest workmanship
and choicest materials hold the cologne,
perfumeries, powders and other scents
for her ladyship's toilet. Pictures hang
upon the walls, or they are hung with
silk, lace, or Oriental stufs. Even her
toilet croekery must be of the choicest
ware, or composed of odd pieces. The
ideal bed has a canopy over it, and this
is made as beautiful as taste and money
will permit. The framework is made of
metal, commonly of FURNISHED brass or
nickel. From this is suspended beautiful
curtains, held back by cords and tassels,
ribbons or bands. Statuary are on the
walls, and the city is searched for rare
and beautiful things to put in this ideal,
at present, of woman's heart-her bed
room.

A Petriled Woman.

On Thursday last, says the Carson
(Nev.) Appeal, Alonzo Zaleno, an Ital-
ian fisherman, discovered petrified wo-
man at Cascade Lake He was going
out to fish at the time, and when pushing
off his boat, struck his oar against some
thing that attracted his attention. He
investigated the matter, and to find Il
petrifed hand protruding from the sand
and pebbles on the beach. In short time
he had unearthed woman in n complete
state of petrifaction. 1t was small In
size, brown in color, and scrawny and
emaciated. The petrifaction had hide
Gus appearance, and the body originally
must have belonged to shriveled, sick
ly woman. The left breast was well
developed, but the arms and legs were
not much larger than the bones should
have been, and the fingers of the right
hand were gone. The petrifaction
weighed nearly two hundred pounds, and
more unsightly object could not we'll
be imagined. It was brought down to
Lake Bigler in the afternoon, and L. J.
Wilson, of San Francisco has offered
800 for it, as he wished to present it to
the Academy of Science. In all prob
ability the body is that of an Indian
woman. There is tradition that years
ago the Indians had battle at Cascade
Lake, in which the squaws joined, and
the dead were buried on the shore of the
lake. Under certain conditions the hui
man cadaver petrifes; more especially in
water. The finder wants $3.50 for his
prize, and it is probable that the sum
will be paid by the academy, and the
curiosity sent to San Francisco.

successful in seizing the political power In the

spoke of you, the Kuklux Khan and Northern

the most fatal policy for the South would be

such result may greatly affect injuriously the
interests of the people of the South. Very

To the Hon. Wade Hampton, Columbia, s. c.:
have to acknowledge the receipt of your
note of the LIST inst, handed me, unopened, by
Mr.. @. Mckinley a few minutes ago, after my
return from the West. I had this morning
read what purported to be an extract of a
speech made by you, published in the Charles
ton NeaoS and Courier, and upon your general
reputation as gentleman had denied that you
had made such speech, or written such letter
as is attributed to you in that paper. What
stated to you in my letter of Sept. q l believe
to be true. notwithstanding your denial, and it
can be shown to be true by the public records,
and as matter of history. AS you had long
before your letter was delivered to me seen
proper to make public statement of your
views of the correspondence, l will give it to
the press without note or comment, and let the
public decide between us. Very respectfully,
JOHN SHERMAN
The serenade to Secretary Sherman
this evening resulted in grand demon
stration. In response to speeches, Mr..
Sherman made one of the most i'm
pressive and eloquent addresses of his
life. He was evidently fired by the in
solent attack of Wade Hampton, a..d
when he alluded to the South he threw
great vehemence into his remarks.

$50 Young and Yet So Unhappy"

Eddie the son of q prominent merchant
In neighboring town to Grenada, is
only two months on his way to his sixth
year. His father says Eddie has been a
"ladies' man" ever since he was two
years of age. But it was only few
weeks ago that he succeeded in finding
his Psyche, who so ruthlessly plunged
the love-poisoned dart into his young
soul that the simple name Mildred was
metamorphosed into the tender name
sweetheart" The village school closed,
and she broke the secret and her lovers
heart by telling him that she loved his
brother better than she did him. When
the father came home Eddie buttonholed
him and sobbed out:
Papa, papa, Eldred said she won't
have me-"
"Oh, son she was only joking"
"N-n-o, sir, she wasn't, cause she
told me three times.
There being ''no balm in Gilead' for
his lacerated heart, he decided to take
arms against q sea of troubles" and with
a curtain cord end them. Having Sc
curely fastened the loose end of the
green cord around his neck, he jumped
out of the parlor window, distance of
four or five feet from the ground. For
tunately the cord broke and left no marks
of suicide, save blood ring around his
neck. -MenphiS AU0L0nche.

The Turn Verein Hall.

The annual masquerade ball of the New Ha-
 ven Turn Verein occurred last evening at Pecks Grand Opera House. At an early hour the throngs vending their way to the hall gave evidence that the affair was to be a suc- cess. When the grand promenade began the large hall was notably gay scene, the whole floor thick with promenaders and fun and jollity having complete sway. The galleries were thronged likewise, and the spectators seemed to be greatly enjoying the spectacle afforded. All kinds of costumes greeted the eye grave, burIesque, festive, gay and ridicu- Ious and the spirit of the occasion was en- tered into heartily. Refreshments were served in the ample supper room, and all the arrange ments for order and convenience receive com mendation. Three scenes of special interest were intermineIed in the dancing. There was the pyramid, gymnastic group in which some thirty men and youth appeared The pyramid was well executed and heartily applauded.

urday afternoon matinee, Abbey's Humpty Dumpty and Spanish Students will appear at Goes Opera House The company is en route from Boston to New York, where they play for number of weeks. They carry all their scenery, the same as used in the Boston Park Theatre and which will be used at Booths. The company is too expensive for circuit work, and it is fortunate that New Haven is getting this company to stop on their way to New York. The best patronage that they can receive here will not pay them as well as their engagement in the larger cities.
