The largest of all New England's
financial corporations is the Connecti-
cut Mutual Life Insurance Company, of
Hartford. whose assets now reach $780,
258, 785. The position Of this single in
stitution, in comparison with Hartford's
banks and fre-insurance companies, is,
that its assets now are more than six
times the combined aggregate capital Of
the national and State banks and trust
companies Of that city, and nearly five
times the combined capital OF Hartford's

A noted music teacher in New York
city relates the following incident, which
contains moral worth recognition by
wives:
ga year ago last fall card was
brought into my MUSHROOM bearing
the namo of a well-known. and fashion,
able married lady. When she was ush-
cred in I was surprised to see SO young
looking woman, though, to he sure,
she is not yet 40, and a fair complexion
and clear blue eyes make her look
younger. She seemed little embar-
rassed, but asked me to try her voice.
I did so, and found it uncultivatc.l. hut
was singularly fresh and sweet in
quality light soprano. I told her 50,
and her face flushed eagerly rs she
asked: I" Professor, could you teach me
to sing p eyes, I replied, :" if you
choose to apply yourself earnestly" .
i will and if you can manage it
80 that I need not be seen, and that no
one knows of it, I will take lesson
every day." We made the best arrange
ments we could, and the lady never
failed to appear promptly ut the hour.
She was so anxious and so persevering
that she made the most extraordinary
progress, and when spring came her
voice had so strengthened and developed
as to be almost beyond recognition.
During the summer I heard nothing OF
her beyond mention in the society pa
pers Of her being at Saratoga, but about
month ago she called upon me, and.
taking both my hands in hers, shook
them earnestly, as she said g Professor,
! have come to thank you for making
me the happiest woman alive. She
then told me that her husband, to whom
she was deeply attached, was passion
ately fond of vocal music, and had ale
ways regretted that she could not sing
to him.
She had never cultivated her voice be-
fore marriage, and afterward the COM
ing Of children and the claims Of society
had prevented her attempting it but
the unlucky day came when Mr.. r.
made the acquaintance Of q charming
widow with q charming voice, who was
always ready and willing to sing sweet
songs to him, and he gradually fell into
the way Of spending many Of his even
ings with her.
At heart devoted to his wife, he was
unconscious Of his gradual neglect Of
her, and would have been astonished
had she resented his enjoyment Of those
musical tete-a-tetes. About the widow /
am not prepared to speak. Mrs. r,
like nice woman, did not resent il, but
undermined the enemy, as you will see.

grace because it is q severe one. The
process Of filing the stomach ordained
BY nature is vulgar in itself, and a
woman who would eat unrepellantly.
Fried oysters are o sore trial to the
ethereal girl who sits down to them with
her admirer after a late theatrical per-
Torrance. It has been five or six hours
since dinner, and she is as hungry as
hear that has lived on its paws all win
ter. She knows that bedtime is close
ahead, and she will not have to endure
her corset long, if she does tighten it
from the inside. But O big appetite is
disseminating in maiden, and fried
oysters are greasy. The problem before

herself without convincing the young
man that her stomach is about like his
own in its periodical call for food.
There is risk in the matter that no
skill can wholly eliminate. The best
rule is to put on an expression Of very
mild disdain at each mouthful, as though
you took it under protest. Don't over
do. this, and look as though sickened,
but just elevate the brows trife, smile

graceful, angel faced creature in FASH
able oyster-house the other night, and
saw that by neglecting her department.
She was shocking the fellow across the
table. Perhaps she didn't care whether
he adored her or not. Anyhow, she was
putting the oysters into her mouth by
halves, chewing them with undisguised
gusto, swallowing plenty OF bread and
cut cabbage along with them, and taking
no pains whatever to disguise the fact
that she was enjoying them NIGHTLY.
At the next table sat o thicker and older
woman, who practiced the art of oyster
eating as have indicated ii. Her facial
expression was clever. She slipped in
the food in big pieces when her COM
panion wasn't looking, and nibbled
when he was looking. She got away
with a hearty meal without appearing to
have taken anything to speak of, and it
was only the empty plates that revealed
the fact. She was not less skillfnl in
drinking her half of quart cham
payne. The glass was lifted to her lips
like the hand OF Queen to kiss; her
mouth shut over barely an inch Of the
brim; there was no stopping or gurgling;
the wine trickled neatly down her throat,
but with quite sufficient celebrity. When
starting to go out. with considerable Of
the fluid effervescing in her brain, she
failed for dreamy instant to recognize
her reflection in full-length mirror,
and tried to turn out to let herself pass
by herself. The blunder was seen by
nobody but me-. She recovered her
equanimity instantly, and departed as
smoothly as fairy.

Comet Seekinp

:. . The number of comet seekers is so
few, compared with the amplitude of
the tracts of sky to be explored nightly,
that it is probable that many celestial
visitors escape detection. Several OBJ
servers may be simultaneously at work
upon one region, while larger areas may
be left entirely unexplored. To prevent
such unintentional waste of time and
labor the Science Observer suggests q
mapping out of the heavens and an al
lotment of special tracts to particular
observers, who shall agree to explore
them nightly.

Girls. Don,t Re In a Hurry.

Girls, don't be in a hurry to get married,
If you are but 16, don't allow such an idea
to get into your head for at least four
years. Don't even run the risk of it by
permitting any young man to get SO far
as the proposing point. Fight him off,
and make him wait or go away to some
body who is ready. Don't live under
the impression that you must accept the
first love-sick youth who proposes. Be
patient, deliberate and sagacious. There
is world of happiness for you between
Is and 20. The world would be dreary
old waste if it were not for the sweet
faces Of young girls, with piquant say
ings and melting smiles. Your father
has bought you piano, and you have
learned to play it after many long and
wearisome lessons don't spoil all by
getting married, for after that you won't
have much use for your piano. After
you have reached 20 it would be we'll to
begin to consider the matrimonial prob
lem with some seriousness.

FIRE LAST NIGHT.
The Residence of Mrs. Theobald on
Pleasant Avenue Partially Destroyed.

The Residence of Mrs. Theobald on
Pleasant Avenue Partially Destroyed.
About 10 o'clock last night fire was dis
covered in the brick dwelling house belonging
to Mrs. Fred Theobald, located on Pleasant
avenue, near Chestnut street. It seems to
have caught somewhere below in or near the
parlor, and burned right up through to the
roof. It gave the fremen great deal of
trouble and took them long time to ex-
tinguish it. It was easily enough handled be-
low, but when they sought to put out the
flames in the roof they
found more difficulty, and it
then proved to be very obstinate fire. Water
was poured upon the building without limit,
and still it burned all around under the roof,
and kept breaking out here and there. The
night was very cold and the fremen were COW
cred with ice, and presented very peculiar ap-
pearance. The fire must have been burning
for long time before it was discovered, as the
building was full of smoke and the fire seemed
to be all around under the roof when
the steamers reached the spot.
There was no one in the house, Mrs.
Theobald having gone over to visit her rela-
tives in West st. Paul, while the children who
had been left at home, had gone to one of the
neighbors. Very little of the furniture was
taken out and good deal of it was damaged
by water. A good portion of the roof was
burned and some portion Of the interior of
the lower part. How much the damage to
the building is it is very difficult to determine
but it was estimated to be not less than ST.
600. The building war insured IN the Under
writers, in Weed & Lawrence's office for IS 600.

THE DULUTH LAND OFFICE,

More About the Fraudulent Entries-Over
10000 Acres Said to Have Been Cob.
bled,
There have been good many reports sent
out from Washington Of late relative to the
entries Of land at the Duluth land office, it
being alleged, among other things, that the
crews of vessels and steamboats, coming into
Duluth from down the lakes have been taken,
and, after an absence Of day or two from
Duluth, have come back and made the necesj
sary oaths for presumption location. The
locations have been made in most cases with
out the slightest improvement being made
on the premises, as provided Dy
the law. It is also said
that upon the extreme rthern
pOsite to the Dominion territory, where ex-
tensive surveys have been made during the
past season, the land is now being taken by
people coming from the other side of the II re,
and not citizens of the United States.
The Duluth land officers vigorously deny
these statements. The Washington corre-
spondent of the Boston Herald says:
"The Duluth land Office has FASTENED to de-
ny what is charged by those familiar with
the affairs of that district. Thegeneral landoface
was lame in the assertion that the frauds in
that district consisted in pre-empting valuable
timber lands and and removing the lumber on
the strength of the filing. This does not ap-
pear to be the modus operandi, but the frauds
are believed to exist and to be the means of
plundering the government of large amount
at valuable timber lands. Uuder the pretense
Of taking them up ss agricultural, it Is charged
that the lumbermen in the pineries procure
fraudulent filings, and then they are proved up
by perjury, as it is impossible to get these
lands in any other way, according to the pro-
visions Of the law, the government receiving
but s125 for lands worth 20 times as much.
In this way title is secured to the lumber,
and, after it has been cut off, the lands are
abandoned, not being of any further value
whatever. The records of the general land
office show that during the first eleven months
of the year 1881 there were $50 pre-emptions.
aggregating 1O4, 900 acres, in the Duluth dis
trict alone. It is clear to the officials of the
general land Office that this vast domain must
have been chiefly obtained through fraud, be-
cause the country is not agricultural, and it
is impossible that so much land there could
have been settled and improved as the pre-
emption law requires. The commissioner Of
the general land office has substantially de-
cided to send out special agents to investigate
this matter.
