LATE NEWS ITEMS.

AT Hamburger, Fremont County,
Iowa, on New Years eve, Miss Lulu Wood,
daughter Of prominent merchant, and her
friend and guest, Miss Kate Campbell,
daughter of Col. Campbell, of st. Joseph,
Mo-, were dressing for a ball, when Miss
Woods dress came in contact with the hot
stove and instantly burst into flame. She
starte I to run, and in passing Miss Campbell
tn fir communicated to her dress. A sery-
ant rushed in and threw blanket over Miss
Wood, extinguishing her burning attire be-
fore she had received any serious injuries.
Miss Campbell, however, was by this time
literally enveloped in flames, and before as
sistance reached her was so badly burned
that she died the following day.
ABE RoTHSCHILD, on trial at Jeffer-
son, Tex, for the murder of Bessie Moore,
or ''Diamo I'd Bessie" was found not guilty.
There was great excitement in the Court
room at the announcement Of the verdict,
which was probably based upon the theory
advanced by Rothschid's attorney, that the
girl committed suicide, inasmuch as the de I'd
body could not have remained exposed for
nearly fifteen days without showing greater
sign of decomposition.
Ar o is, Laporte County, Ind, on
New Years eve, Henry Augustine, aged Is,
attempted the murder of the entire family
OF his uncle, james Augustine. He first
shot his uncle, then his aunt, both of whom
were arouse from sleep by their nephew
entering their room. The two sons, both
20 ing men, ran down stairs upon hearing
the firing, sand were met by their cousin !,
who shot one OF them dead and fired At, but
miss d., the other. The assassin then fled
from the house, but returned and
expressed great contritIon. for
what he had done, at the same time surren-
derug his revolver to his surviving cousin.
Before his arrest could be effected, howev-
er, he again absented himself. Mr.. Angus
tine is likely to recover, but his wife will
die. 1t is said that the young assassin was
actual by revenge for some wrong, real OF
fancied, in the settlement of his fathers es-
tate, and it is believed he had previously at
tempted to poison the family.

Turkish HOuriS.

The Turkish beauties of whom we
read. exist chiefly in the imagination.
Seeing them face 10 face, one finds lit
tie to admire. In general they have
oval faces. clear Give skins, languiSh
ing dark eyes and beautiful hands, soft
as velvet and. white as snow-beyoad
this, nothing. They lack the natural
grace and pretty coquetry of our Lev
antine bellies, the firm tread, elegant
manners and becoming modesty of Euro
pean women. Their figures are clumsy,
their features somewhat harsh, their
lips full and often thick; they walk
with a roll (their legs being bowed),
and even their natural attractions de-
pend more or less upon artificial aid.
They thickly powder their faces, black
en- their brows and die their eyelids and
lashes, so that when half-veiled by the
yashmak screen they are certainly strik-
inc and present dazzling effect; but
under other circumstances most of them
would pass unobserveG. Their chief
beauty is in the mystery that surrounds
them. -Erchdnqe.

-"Old Grimes is dead-that cool old man
We ne'er shall see him more,
He used to wear a iong-ta lei coat,

And they wear Old Grimes coat"
All buttoned down be hind 'em.
