From the whItesburu, Nv. enlerurlsc,

We noted the arrived of Mr.. VIM. ID.
Jones, of Philadelphia, last week, aud
he Is still with us, hut will remain only
q short while longer. He informs ~
that he has purchased upwards Of 30 600
acres of land during the last ten days
and that he paid prices ranging from ~
to 50 per acre. All Of this land Is we'll
timber with the different growth Of our
country, including the finest walnut, oak
and poplar, and portion of It covers
cor strntas ranging from four TO eleven
feet In thickness and composed Of the
bltuminous and camel varieties. The
coal of one these banks has been pro-
nounccd by u State Gcologist to be three
per cent. the best In the I'm ted States
for eohcing purposes. The camel coal
bank bought Of the Field Brothers Is
eleven feet thick and of the best quality.
Mr.. Jones says he will wager any
amount that he can have n solid block
taken ont Of IL that viii weigh Ave thdus-
and pounds. Mr.. jones' money IL, In
deed, well Invested, and those who have
parted with their land for mere pttancc
will doubtless see the day when they
will regret Ii.
Mr.. VIM. ID. Jones employed some
parties to haul y lump Of camel coal
from his magnificent bank on Kings
Creek, In this county, to Pikcton for
shipment 10 his home IN Philadelphia,
but the WAGNER, becoming fearful that
his wagon would not sustain It's weight,
broke up and unloadcd II after going II
short distance. The lump was cslimat-
ed to weigh 1900 pounds.

An Insane Man Starves Himself to
= In j Death. !
LINCOLN, Neb., Ju

LlNCOLN, NeD., June Z.
A remarkable case Of fasting is reported
from the State Insane Hospital to-day. Eight
months ago a Polish Jew named AdOlph Schon-
iger was placed in the penitentiary to serve a
sentence Of one year for larceny. He was q
young man without friends or relatives in this
country, and spoke but imperfectly the En-
glish language. He robbed his first employer
a jeweler Of this city. of quantity of valua-
bles, and for this crime was tried and con-
victed. He remained one month in the
penitentiary, and then went to the
Insane Hospital, having been adjudged insane
by board of physicians, who obtained for
him from the Governor a transfer from the
prison to the asylum. From the moment he en-
tered the latter. place he refused nourishment
Of all kinds, and for the past seven months has
not partaken of morsel of food willing
~, and the Nry little that has gone into his
system has been forced down him by the asy-
lum physicians. From a natural weight
of 150 pounds he gradually fell to eighty and
died to-day of sheer starvation and exhaus-
ton. His motive for thus refusing to receive
nonrishment was that Christ had forbidden
him to eat, and this was his only and oft-re-
peated answer to those who tried to reason
with him on the subject A few hours before
death occurred he called for something to eat,
and, when it was given him, ate it voraciously,
but it was too late. In ashort time thereafter
he died, lamenting that he had broken his
promise to Christ by partaking of food.

After few more formalities the inter-
view came toNa sudden end through my

tried to wriggle into more comfortable
position, seeing which the Queen consid-
erately remarked to Sister Teresa that I
must be tired Of sitting on the ground,
and. rising herself, left the room. Here
l must say that women fare much better
than men at these interviews. AL that
is necessary is to keep ones feet out of
sight, and q woman, thanks to her
skirts, can easily do this, sitting tailor
fashion, and as comfortably as she
would on her hearth-rug by the fire.
But the unfortunate men-Europeans-
must twist themselves into positions
that soon become torture in order to
keep their feet behind them. We did
not talk politics, or say word on either
side that could give rise to discussion
only one thing ! told the sister to say
emphatically, and that was that I COM
piled with the Queens wish to see me
because heard that she herself was q
good and humane woman. I was very
glad the King did not appear-one
could not pay him the same compli-
ment. When the Queen left, the Prin-
cesses clustered around me again, and
one of them took my hand and said
something that seemed very amiable
1t turned out to be that she loved me
very much. Already! Poor things,
they have not much outlet for their af-
fections, for they are more closet i'm

High Heeled Boots.

For a long time, says the st. James
Gazette, the alarming height of woman's
boots has been source Of deep anxiety
to her many friends and admirers; but
it is generally felt that any remon-
STRANGE with her on the subject would
only irritate her. An action was brought
in London. the other day to recover
compensation for personal injuries, and
was defended on the ground of contrib
utory negligence. The plaintiff was a
butcher, who, with his wife, went on
board a steamer belonging to the de-
PENDANT for short sea trip. While
stepping on board the vessel the plain
tiff's wife slipped and fell, breaking her
leg. A question was raised in the course
of the inquiry, as to the height of the
heels of the boots. She described them
as being not very high about the usual
height. a medical witness expressed
his opinion that the heels of the boots
worn by plaintiff wife were not very
high, but admitted.that high heels led
to many. accidents, and in some cases
.'conduced to injury Of the spine." In
the end the jury found a verdict for the
defendant.

Little Girls Cloaks, Hats, Etc.

The Mother Hubbard gathered cloaks
are still used for very small girls, and
are made of checked Cheviot for every
day wear, and of pale blue, gray, or
white cashmere for nicer use. The
dark navy blue flannel cloaks are also
nice for travelling, and for cool morn
ings in the country. Straight coats of
white diagonal cloth, with French
sack back and deep shoulder cape, are
prettily piped with satin and ornament
ed with satin bows, or else made more
elaborate with white open embroidery
done in wool for trimming.
Large round collars of white grena-
dine edged with Russian lace, or plated
collars of open Hamburg work. or else
the Irish point embroidery, are worn.
with deep cuffs to match, over outside
cloaks.
Dark straw round hats are chosen for
general wear, with wide brims rolled
up all around the edge, and trimmed
with great bow Of four long loops of
satin ribbon on one side, with the loops
going upon the crown, while there are
pompons or ostrich tips on the other
side. These are all one color, with
sometimes two shades of one color, as
rose-colored pompons or feathers trim
dark garnet straw hats, and ecru trims
seal brown straw. A dark velvet facing
inside the brim and velvet ribbon
band with a prim bow is pretty
trimming for white straw hats. The
most dressy hats are all white having
the large bow of satin and the half
long ostrich plumes all white on an
English straw hat. Chip is so fragile
that it is seldom bought for children;
the porcupine straws with satin finish
are more durable and quite as inexpen-
sive. There are many dressy little poke
bonnets with the front turned back, a
cap ruche inside and the whole thing,
straw and plumes, Of pure white. Love-
ly little poke sun-bonnets, with high
crown and short gathered skirt, are
made of blue or white lawn, shirred on
rattans, to match the guimpe dresses in
color.
Very dark stockings are worn by
children, and black stockings are often
seen with the lightest dresses. Their
shoes are of kid, buttoned high upon the
ankles, and without heels.
The French aprons made of full
straight white muslin, gathered to a
binding at the neck, and without
sleeves, are used for service. There are
also high-throated aprons with yokes
and long sleeves that cover and protect
the dress well.
The hair is worn banged in front and
flowing behind. The bang is straight,
thick, begins far back upon the head,
and falls low down upon the forehead;
but there are no side bangs covering
the temples. The hair back of this is
combed back, and allowed to flow. with
out frizzing or plaits, and if a ribbon is
used, it is tied around the top of the
head, not merely around the back hair.
If the hair has the slightest tendency
to curl, it is formed into four or five
large, thick, long curls, that are really
only curled at the ends-Harper's b.
EAR.

= The Queen Of Burmah.

The Queen kept us waiting two
hours. At length there arose a slight
hubbub, which meant that she was COM
ing, and all the court put itself into the
usual attitude for receiving majesty in
Burmah, i. e.: they Frustrated them
selves, and folded their hands far in
front of them as if in prayer, The
Queen is only twenty-one years old.
She is very nice-looking, unusually fair
for Burmese, and her expression is
really good, and makes me inclined to
credit the assurance, given me by Sister
Teresa, that she knew nothing at the
time of the horrible massacres that took
place at Mandalay about eighteen
months ago. I had to sit in front of
her Majesty, who herself did not occupy
the throne, bat sat on a purple velvet
carpet, with q cushion for her
elbow to 8 rest on. q Sister Teresa
then introduced me by name. BY
the way, Camp had been qnes-,
toned about me in the morning, and, to
my great amusement / heard that she
had described me as parsonage only
second to royalty itself in rank. 'The
more they think of you the BETTER was
the explanation she afterward gave me
of this wonderful romancing. My
presents were then mentioned, and
then maid of honor handed me
beautiful gold cup, and piece of silk
the Queens gifts. made a low bow.
The Queen then took puff at
q huge cheroot, and then, asked my age,
and several other personal questions.
She seemed a little shy herself, and
when the conversation tagged she once
or twice laughed like schoolgirl, and
made all the PROSTATE ones, including
the nuns, laugh, too, by some remark
of hers. A mischievous little dog that
would run all about the throne-room
upset her gravity first, and for once it
took off all the stiffness of the thing to
see the general giggle. The Queen
asked how i liked Mandalay, and of
course I had nothir & but praises of all I
saw. Upon this she said that these next
few days would be great Burmese
festival, and that there would be all sorts
of entertainments at the palace that she
would like me to stay and see. ! really
feared there would be no escape this
time, but begged Sister Teresa aside in
French to get me out of the difficulty,
So she expressed my thanks to the
Queen, but said my husband was
Obliged to leave at once for Rangoon.
i then asked If / might see the Princess
the baby. The Queen smiled graf
fled maternal smile, but said baby
