Killed His Mistres..

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-Thomas Mcdonald, a
dissolute ruffian, was arrested TO-DAY on the
charge that he had so brutaliy beaten his par

out of the chair. He aflerward struck her in

insensible. He then took her in his arms and
carried her to room up stairs, where the
woman soon died. McDonsl1 was preparing
for flight when arrested.

There was good buying in the early dealings
and prices advanced steadily until an improve
ment of n 10 SX per cent. took place, Rich
mond s. Danville, Boston Air Line preferred,
Philadelphia & Reading, Denver & Rio Grande
and Missouri Pacific being most prominent
therein. During the afternoon speculation
became fevsrish and gradually assumed a
weak tone, prices falling off steadily to the
close and the final sales being generally at a
decline OF \ OAK per cent. from the highest
point of the day. The shares most conspicu-
GUS in the downward movement were Rich

cifc, Boston Air Line preferred, Denver & Rio
Grande and Chicago & Northwestern. Until
money stringency was developed all Stock
Exchange markets were strong, but when a
commission had to be paid for money the
stock market began to be heavy, and the fail
ure of the Chicago & Northwestern directors
to increase their dividend, as it had been re-
ported they would do, added to the general
depression and in the last hour the stock mar
ket was weak and the early advance was gen.
orally lost, so that good part of the list
closed lower than Saturday. Several special
ties closed at an advance. No important news
has been received from Washington, neither
the presidents message nor the treasury re-
port having been known here before the close
of business. When the stock market was
strong Philadelphia & Reading was the fea-
ture and advanced to Tx, although closing
at COX. It was reported that an offer of $40
per share had been bid the McCalmonts for
their stock in said company, but this could
not be confirmed. To-day Jay Gould, Russell
Sage, Cyrus w. Field and number of their

Foreer Arrested.

NEWPORT, R. l., Dec. 4-Wm. H. Durfee,
of the firm of W. d. Green & Co., confesses
to forgeries of between $1,000 and $1,000. He
forged the name of Benjamin Bateman and
Geo. E. Vernon, and used the money in the
firms business. Durfee has been one of the
most respected young men in the city. He
secured money from all but one or two banks,
and his failure to take, up note of S575 led to
the exposure. It seems both Vernon and
Bateman have been endorsing for him, and
when the notes became due Durfee forged
their names on q renewal. No arrests have
yet been made.

A HUSBANDS LOVE.

1t is easy enough to win q husband.
Most any attractive little dumping
with bright eye and cooling voice can
gather in noble husband, but it is
pretty difficult to retain him. Noble
husbands are thicker than hair on a
dog, but the grand difficulty is to draw
out their true nobility and secure it at
home.
The true wife does not come home
after the wedding ceremony and begin
to make trouble in the family. Far
from it. She goes to her brand new
husband, in her bridal robes, and sits
on his knee and softly weeps the starch
out of his shirt collar and buries her
timid little hairpin in his eye and tick
les his nose with her bangs. Then he
is glad that he is married. He wishes
that he had thought Of it before.
No wife should enter her new home
on the wedding day with a double-bar-
relied shot gun and try to start panic.
If she only understands her business
she can introduce the soothing racket
i'll her new field of operations and walk
away with the whole business. Most
men like to be loved and soothed.
There is something in the mans great,
rough, earnest nature that can be won
quicker and easier with gentleness and
rie than by the logic Of the broom ham
de and bilious course of reasoning
with bread and milk diet.
We have seen Il girl who understood
her business take a reformed road agent
by the nose. SO to speak, and lead him
through life in such way that he
wouldn't know but that he was boss of
the ranch. Soperfect was the delusiOn,
that when she asked him to bring in
scuttle of coal, OF to get up in his night
shirt and kill a burglar, that he knew
was nothing but bob-tailed COW four
blocks away, he always went, and he
felt as though he counted it mark of
special favor that poor, unworthy
worm of the dust, like him, should be
sought out and delegated to go and
chase lame COW across nine vacant
lots with an old barrel stave, and
clothed in nothing but little brief au-
thority and a knit undershirt.
We cannot exactly describe this mag
ic power of devoted wife over her hus-
band, and we do not intend to try it.
1t is an unseen motive, a nameless lever
age that makes the husband get up in
the dead hour of the night and set the
pan cake batter near the parlor stove.
A man need not think that because
he gets up and looks for burglars in the
night and is otherwise obedient, that it
is because he has no back bone.
1t is simply because he is the hus-
band of woman of whom he ought to
be proud. Bill Nye.

YOUR EYES.

The most serious trouble with readers
and writers is, as might be predicted
from their peculiar work, weak eyes.
We find that engravers, watchmakers,
and all others who use their eyes con-
stantly in their work, take extra care
to preserve them by getting the best
possible light by day, and using the best
artificial light by night. The great
army of readers and writer's are careless,
and most of them sooner OF later pay
the penalty by being forced to give up
night work entirely-sOme to give up
readings except at short intervals, un-
der the best conditions, and now and
then one loses the eye sight entirely, af-
ter it is too IatG-to take warning.
Greek, German, shorthand or any
other character differing from the plain
Roman type makes a double danger.
The custom is to laugh at all warnings
till pain or weakness makes attention
imperative, and then it is often too late
to avert the mischief. Few compre-
hend the vast number we call a million,
/ but il takes million letters to make a
fair-sized volume Of five hundred pa
ges, forty lines to the page, fifty letters
to the line \ reader makes an easy
day of reading this, but his eye must go
over million letters
We can do no better service to read
ers and writer's than to call attention
to this great danger of failure to take
the best care, which is none too good
for the eyes. Every typo knows that
he should have the best light for read
ing, should shm carefully early dawn
or twilight, should always stop at the
first sign of pain OF WEAKNESS, etc.
Most know that the glare from plain
white surface is very trying, and that
the eye is relieved by tint. Recent
experiments in Germany are reported
to indicate some yelloWish tint as the
easiest for the eyes. Dark papers, inks
that show light color on first writing,
faint lead pencil marks that can be read
only by straining the eyes, are fruitful
sources of mischief. So is bad writing.
The bad paper, ink and pencils most of
our readers will have too good sense to
use.
The intelligent public should so clear
ly show its disgust for the fine type,
solid matter, poor paper and poor print
ing, which some publishers, and most
periodicals, except the best, are guilty
of offering, that no publisher would
dare to attempt the experiment a
second time.-Literary Journal.

DAN EMMETT, the old time negro
minstrel, is still performing in the west.
He is the author of q" Way Down South
in Dixie, . which was first a : walk
aroundn chorus, written in 1859 for
Bryant's minstrels, then at Mechanics
Hall, Broadway. Emmett lately said
to Cincinnati Enquirer reporter L
wish | was in Dixie was a northern eX-
preston, and not a southern one, as
many have supposed. had travelled a
great many years with circuses in my
Younger days and the south was then
considered all that portion of the coun-
try below Mason and DiXon's line,
called for short Dixie, by shOwmen.
In the early fall of the year, when a
frost would overtake south bound cir
Gus still in the north, the boys would
think of the genial warmth of the sec
tion they were heading for, and many's
the time on such an occasion have l
heard them say, Well, l wish was in
Dixie's land now 1t was this that
gave me the catch line for my song"
Two years afterward the rebellion broke
out, and Emmett's air, which had be-
come popular'in the South, was made
the representative TUNE of the south
erners. The author says the work has
paid him about $500.
