Queer Lunacy at Cape God.
Boston Herald Letter.


Melville Pierce, of Wellfeet, has for
some time past shown unmistakable
signs of insanity. Last fall he made an
attempt to take his life by shooting, but
the ball struck one of his ribs, glanced
off and did him no great harm. He has
twice mysteriously disappeared, but was
recovered and brought back to his home.
He absented himself again last Septem-
ber, but the most persistent search failed
to disclose his whereabouts until last
Wednesday. Nathaniel Snow, organist
of the Methodist Church at Wellfeet,
had occasion to 90 into the church, where
he espied what seemed to be man on
the top of the organ.
Surprising him to be tramp, MIR.
Snow summoned assistance, and taking
out the man found that he was Pierce.
His hair had grown SO long that 1t rested
on his shoulders, and the beard on his
face gave him a wild look. Pierce had
been living in the church for some time,
and had a bed on top of the organ, and
he had also occupied the attic. A tub
of butter that had been stolen from the
store of Newcomb, Young & 90. was
found where Pierce had concealed it, a
portion of which he had used. He had
also lot of canned meats, preserves
and other eatables, Since the corning OF
cold weather it is thought Pierce has
been living in the church. He will not
give any information Of where he has
been or how he managed to remain in
the vicinity soilong without being dis
covered sooner. pa

Eloping With a Ward i'm Ohancery.
} TLondon NeWs.1


1t is difficult thing to determine
whether the guardianship of the Court Of
Chancery is a great advantage or a small
abuse. Abduction cases are now infre-
quent, and Gretna-Green is almost a
tradition. On the other hand the Lord
Chancellor's parental protection is a lux
ury which must be paid for, and the fact
of girl being a ward of his court is
prima facie evidence that she is an
heiress. She thus becomes more liable
to attack because she is known to be de-
Tended. Take, for instance, the case
which SO recently perplexed Sir Richard
Malins.
The ward was a schoolgirl Of seven
teen, and the lover young gentleman
|'of undoubted industry and high moral
character. His early life gave great
promise and his habits were business
like; he also had a sister, who appears to
have been similarly endowed. The lover
seems to have added to business habits a
prsisewor,hy knowledge of the marriage
laws Of the country. He took lodgings
within the limits Of a parish at the
church Of which his banns were duly
called, and in these lodgings his.sister re-
sided for time. One afternoon a cab
drove UP to the school door, within it a
gentleman and lady. It left soon after
ward with a gentleman, lady and 2
schoolgirl. The schoolgirl was the ward
Of court, and the journey in the cab was
an elopement. satnl
The marriage was solemnized next day +,
but the Court OF Chancery knew nothing
about it for some weeks. At last ap-
prised Of the fact, it interrupted the
honeymoon by sending the young hus-
band to Jail For fortnight he has re-
mained in Holloway Prison; and Sir
Richard Malins, appealed to last Friday,
found himself perpiexed in the extreme.
The young man produced the most I'M
exeeptionable references, and it became
doubtful whether his present marriage
was not the solitary mistake Of his life.
1t is a satisfaction for the young wife
