The Necessity for Reform

II housekeepers would only follow the
noble example of reform now being set in
municipal politics by the sterner sex, what
a glorious country this would be. And
they must do it. Common sense advises
1t, and necessity demands it. The time is
passed when you must spend considerable
money where fey doses of Swayne's Pills
would effect speedy cure. Reform is
needed in the household. Hereafter, when
any of the family are suffering from bill
liousness, indigestion, headache, disordered
liver or costlveness, use Swayne's Pills.
After their use you will have no other.

PRESIDENT MAIDS N.

The marriage.of James Madison,
which took place in Philadelphia
while he was a Member of Congress,
and already a man of middle age,
Is chiefly remarkable for the gayety
and social assumption of his wife,
and for the lamentable sack OF bis
estate by her son by her first mar
risge. Madison's wife was keeping
a boarding house in Philadelphia when
the future President stopped there.
She was a respectable Virginia
Quaker. She was the first wife of a
President to lesd the political circle

that delighted the men-something

Madison had to.paysdebts, gambling

Miss Zaidee Per Lee, whose funeral was

of the Incarnation yesterday, was one

ary Society, and of st. Timothy's Ward of
the Incarnation Church (general) Guild.
In all these Departments Of work "she did
what she could" and that was great deal.
And she did it with all her might" The
beautiful floral tributes that were laid upon
and surrounded her casket, sent by the Or
CARNATIONS to which she belonged and
other friends, were felt to be true en-
blems of her worth and spiritual condition;
and the hymns, 80 Paradise o Paradise" )"
and Sun of My Soul" sung during the
burial services expressed what all felt was
won't to be her spiritual longings and af-

with one, who, in passing to the church ex-

realization. May she rest in peace, and
may perpetual light shine upon her. Amen

CLOSING UP
The business of the December Term
Of Court.

Justice Cox has nearly finished all of the
business connected with the December term Of
the Criminal Court, and will soon close II. To-
day he listened 10 the argument or the motion
for n new trial in the case of John Donohue,
convicted OF manslaughter In killing Catherine
Bailey in February, 1881. The woman was of
notorious bad character, and kept disrepu-
table house on Seventh-street road, which had
been the scene OF many fight and even muir
der has been alleged To have been committed
there, Catherine Baily having been tried for
killing an old soldier who was taken from
there under suspicious circumstances and
died shortly afterward at the Soldiers Home.
She was also convicted Of robbing an old sol
dier, sentenced 10 three years In the peniten-
tiary and subsequently pardoned. Her den
trap the old soldiers going from and returning
10 the Home, and many one OF them was
lucky In escaping from its meshes with an un-
broken hide, clothes being matter OF no con-
sideration.
In this case Of Donohu ue he went 10 the house
under the influence Of drink and after a short
time aquafrel ensued, beer bottles and brick
bats were abundant and few about promiscu-
ously, and In the excitement Donohue seized
hold Of a chair rung and let Il go carroming
ON Catherine Bailey's head. Sometime after
ward she died from the effects OF the injuries
received, and Donohue was tried and convicted
of manslaughter.
Mr. Thomas +. Miller made an able argu-
ment in behalf OF his CLIENT but the Judge
failed TO see any legal grounds for granting a
new trial and refused the motion. Sentence
was suspended for two weeks.
