A MORBID citizen Of st. Louis, affiict-
ed with an ardent desire to possess the
two horses which lately belonged to
Jesse James, was the victim of rather
mean but amusing joke last week.
Somebody who knew his wish shipped
to him a couple of wornout street-car
horses, for which he cheerfully paid q
fancy price. The poor beasts, in the
course of their arduous lives had en-
countered more than their fair share
of the sling and arrows of outrageous
fortune, and were in sorry condition
when they reached st. Louis. But they
were beautiful in the eyes of their new
owner, and he exulted exceedingly
over his purchase until some sympa-
thetic friend informed him that he had
made fool of himself.

SEVERAL interesting novelties were
produced at the Good Friday concerts
in Paris. At the concert Lamoureaux
the chief attraction was new sacred
cantatta by NJ. Salvayre, entitled ''The
Valley of Jehoshaphat." At the con-
cert Populaire NJ. Pasdeloup's orches-
ira for the first time executed fine re-
ligious march by Georges Bizet. The
Societe des Concerts itself, for Won
der, ventured to present its patrons
with novelty in the shape of a new
and very beautiful duo for soprano and
contralto by Charles Gounod. 1t is
written to words taken from Racine's
Esther" and is in the composers most
mystically passionate vein. The voices
are accompanied by strings, two horns
and a piano. Gounod himself played
the piano accompaniment.

THE Wood River Neag8 announces the
following as authentic: The Central
Pacific is to commence the cOnstruc-
ton of a line from Humboldt Wells to
intersect the Northern Pacific in Mon
tana. The proposed new line will skirt
the Wood River mountains, and branch
roads will run up the valley of Big and
Little Wood rivers, in opposition to
any lines the Union Pacific may build.
The construction of this line gives the
Northern Pacific direct San Francis
co connection independent Of the Union
Pacific or Iowa pool lines.

Costumes for Riding.
From the Philadelphia Times.

This is just the season for horseback
riding, and, therefore, few hints about
habit will be acceptable. In Paris the
riding habit is quite simple, good
deal shorter than it used to be made
formerly, glove fitting, with short
basque turned up into revers at the
back. But as a variety to this young
ladies have very generally adopted this
spring the riding habit of creamy white
or pale buff instead of the dark cloth
one. TIE bodice is a glove fitting cui-
rass heightened behind into cot lappets
and trimmed with buttons of carved
pearl. The neck is finished with q deep
ruff1e of creamy lace. As for the
sleeves, they are partly concealed un-
ner the long gloves of soft deerskin
which are slipped over them. The hat
is a broad brimmed Gainsborough,
caught up on one side with long
white ostrich feather, which curls
around the crown. The hat itself is of
white felt, lined with deep blue or red
velvet or satin. This headgear is too
becoming to be soon left off. When
the weather is very warm, however.
the hat to be worn is of thin, soft felt
lined with silk, which is quite light and
| pleasant to wear.
In New York and Philadelphia, hab-
its are made of dark cloth, bottle green,
navy blue, plum, prune and black.
The skirts are, as the Partisan habits,
much shorter than they used to be,
and the dresses are made either in one
glove fitting princess habit or they have
skirts and basques, either pointed or
in jacket or coat shape. With such
habits the hats are jaunty beavers,
modest Derbys or in any of the fash
ionable stylish shapes, with, however,
but little trimming, except the elegant
plume and perhaps large double bow
Of wide ribbon. A very stylish habit is
of very dark brown cloth made with
coat basque, with deep tabs in the back
The hat is Of black silk high crown and

DANIEL FEE young man about 26
years OF age, who lives with his parents
in Philadelphia, committed suicide I'M
der peculiar circumstances. He is said
to have been drinking heavily for ten
days, and when he returned home he
threw himself on sofa and complained
of feeling unwell. His sister proposed
that she should prepare him some
Cruel, and went to the kitchen for that
purpose, leaving him unbuckling his
CATERS. Directly after she had gone
he opened a drawer and seizing large
butcher knife inflicted fearful cash
across his throat. Streaming with
blood, he rushed out of the open door
down the steps, and into the street
clutching his neck and trying to keep
the lips of the wound together. His
sister, seeing the pools of blood in the
corridor, and hearing the noise he
made going out, followed and brought
MN back after he had gone about s
square and a half. No sooner had he
reached the room where he had beer
sitting, than he fell corpse into his
fathers arms. No cause can he 90.

IN answer to letters from all parts of
the United States, asking for the signif-
cation Of the recent aurora, Professor
Vennor, the Canadian weather prophet,
says "The approaching summer will
be cold and wet over a very consider
able portion of the south and west"
He would not be surprised should each
month for the remainder of the year
bring frosts. In past years, brilliant
auroras at this time in April at Toron-
to, New York and more southern
points, have almost invariably been
succeeded bv cold and wet summers.

not have been surprised or dismayed il
Forster had been murdered, but Caven-
dish being colorless man, and having
done nothing injurious to the Irish
cause, the act is inexphcable. Theo-
rles are advanced that some fanatic
OF the Guiteau stripe or some
adherent of Forster, disappointed
at losing an Office, has committed the
deed. One theorist even declares that
the deed was done by zealot of the
landlord party who took this insane
method of arousing the resentment of
all England against the Irish cause and
a ce.
Mr.. John Finerty believes the cause
OF Irish liberty will be retarded many
years if it is shown that the murder
was the act of the land leaguers, or was
done in their interest. Many persons
dlscredit the news entirely.
THE HERALD SAYS
The murder could not have hap
pened at more unauspicious moment
for Ireland. She was enjoying a great
victory. She had obtained more at a
stroke than she had expected to 90.
tain in the course of years. Her
leaders had been released, Davitt had
been triumphantly escorted to London,
two unpopular ministers had been
Withdrawn at her demand, Mr.. Glad
stone was waiting to grant her almost
any reasonable concessions. The
crisis has now come. There can be
no more temporarizing, no more dalli-
ance. Coercion, violence, and
martial law will all be useless.
What has to be done has to be done
quickly and must be wholly radical in
its nature. Mr.. Parnell may place
himself at the head of the only move
ment which can now close the war.
Every sentiment of justice and patriot
ism calls on him to take the lead and
show how Ireland can gain such of her
ends as are reasonable.

The Common Enemy.

In order to make headway against the common
enemy, Disease, it is necessary to oppose him
with persistence. 1t very frequently happens
that a remedy perfectly adequate to the necessi-
ties of the case, if persisted in is contemned and
thrown aside because few doses of it do not cure
a mslady. How unreasonable and unjust would
such judgment be regarding Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, ore of the most popular and highly
sanctioned medicines of the day, potent inYig-
GRANT. and an invariably successful remedy Tor
constipation, dyspepsia, liver complaint, incipient
rheumatism and gout, inactivity and weakness of
the kidneys and bladder. and for the inirmities
incident to the decline of life. No fact is better
established than the above, yet in order to expert
ence Its truth, those afflicted with obstinate forms
of disease should give this benignant curative a
patient trial Ii they do, they may rely upon de-
cisive curative results.
