Incident Of Garfleld's Last Days.

AT little company the other evening
at which Colonel Rockwell, who has
been visiting the Garfields during the
holidays, was present, the conversation
was about Garfield and his way of max
ing Intimate acquaintances of SO many
different men. s.He had manysvery in
innate friends said Colonel Rockwell,
..but there were some to whom he was
especially attached. With all of these
he was intimate in particular direction.
Prof Hinsdale enjoyed his confidence as
an old associate and scholarly gentie-
man. General Swain he regarded with
somewhat brotherly affection. Blaine
and Garfield were intimateiin social
as well as public way, Each enjoyed
the others confidence for years in the
House together. Then there were
Conger, of Michigan, and Morton,
of New York, and several others with
whom Garfield had always been on the
best of terms. But among all of these
there was no one who enjoyed his conf
dence and esteem SO fully as Swain.
They had lone been associated in MANY
ways, and Swain was more like menu
Der of his family circle than any Of the
Others Then the conversation turned
to the last days Of the great man.
There is one thing believe that has thus
far escaped being published y said the
Colonel, land that was a little incident
that occurred only a few days before his
death. 1t was along in the afternoon,
and | was the only one near his bedside
at the time. He had just awakened from
a short nap, and lay quietly gazing at the
ceiling above. old boy said he, sud-
denly, do you think my name will ever
go down in HI foryP' Yes 1 respond
ed; not SO M eh, though, for what you
have done as what you will do With a
sad smile upon his face and a slight shak-
ing of his head, he said: NO, not for

"Yes, Sir, I'd Shoot HIM.

Six or eight congenial spirits sat
around stove in Grand River grocery
the other night, and after several other

introduced that of panics in churches.

The jersey jacket and Worth Mantle.

The wholesale stores are already busy,
with making smaller wraps for the
spring in two shapes that have met with
favor during the winter. These are the
Jersey jacket and the short Worth
mantle. The Jersey jacket is. plain
long cuirass made single-breasted, and
with all the seams of the back sewed
their entire length to make the garment
fit closely over the hips and tournure.
This garment follows every outline of
the figure as smoothly as a woven Jer-
sey waist would, and dispenses with the
outside pockets, the lappets and buttons
at the back that were the marked feat
ures of the masculine English walking
jackets. Small buttons, in a single row,
fasten this jacket down the entire front,
and the other only trimming admissible
upon it is tubular braid put on in mill
tary rows. The length depends upon
the wearer, as it must be made as long
as she can wear it without wrinkling
when she sits, as its beauty depends upon
its smoothness. This design has been in
favor as part of tailor made suits all
winter, and will be used in the spring in
Cheviots, English homespuns, coach
mems drab diagonal cloths, also slate
gray or gray-blue, olive, brown and dark
green cloth. ss af.s3a \
The short Worth mantles for dressy
occasions are made of black satin or Of
lcamels hair, trimmed with ruffles of
the material that are gathered, not
pleited, and with frills of Spanish lace
or the full ruches of chenille. Some un-
dress mantles of Cheviots will also be
made to wear with various dresses.
These wraps have the loose mantilla
front, square sides giving the effect of
square sleeves, and either one, two or
three seams behind. The back hes
smoothly on the bouffant tournure, and
the garment is of even length all around,
falling just below the hips. Such wraps
are now worn of velvet and of moire fig
ured plush to complete costumes of the
same material. -HYDer's Razar,

The Advantages Of Utterism.

The notion that grew up about six
years ago that every one ought to be
aesthetic, and that every one who fol-
lowed certain recipes could be so, and
gain healthy enjoyment of art by merely
living in certain atmosphere, was one
that would scarcely have needed refuta-
ton had it not been the genuine express
sion, though in an exaggerated form, of
the reaction from the Philistinism of the
earlier part of the century. At the bot
tom of the sham sentiment and fashion-
able foolishness, which, as it were.
armor-plated the aesthetic movement,
there was a real desire for little more
beauty in the surroundings of life, and
perhaps even wish for a less material
view. of life itself. Possibly the weakest
STRIPPING who poured over Iily in a
glass of water was as estimable a spec-
tacle as the First Gentleman in Europe
being hoisted into his inexpressibles by
half dozen Wallets, and the ladies who
waved peacock fans slowly in the dim
light of sagegreen drawing rooms would
have compared favorably in all but COM
plexion with their prototypes Of the Re-
gency. AT all events, both the male and
female aesthetic had some faint notion
OF an ideal-not wholly selfish, nor
wholly base-and though the ideal was
as nebulons as the atmosphere of the
boudoirs, it was sufficient to prevent their
being wholly contemplate Unlike

irritating to others-at least, when they

"a considerable change. 1t would be
difficult now for any one, even buying
furniture or domestic utensils of any sort,
to avoid becoming possessed of a con-
siderable number of objects which were

A Cure for Unrequitted Love.

= A curious love episode had its eulrni-
nation in court here today when Jennie
Blank, good-looking young woman OF
refined appearance, was found guilty of
maliciously breaking the windows OF
William II. Anderson's house. Miss
Blank first met Mr.. Anderson about nine
years ago, and fell deeply in love with
him, although he claims that he did not
encourage her affection. He ceased to
visit her, and she then began to write
him letters of the most touching charae-
ter, but they. failed to move him. On
thescontrary, he wooed and won another
woman, whom he: married nearly year
ago. But this only seemed to excite
Miss Blank frenzy, and she wrote him
SO many letters that he sometimes re-
ceived five or six Of them in one mail.
There was: nothing offensive in them:
they spoke Of hopeless love; but the sem
timents were refined and the language
well chosen. . Mr.. Anderson did not re-
ply to them, and some time after his
marriage, he said to-day on the witness
stand, somebody began to.annoy him by
systematically breaking the windows Of
his house. One time brick was thrown
throughhis store window at three O. clock
in the morning. On another occasion
hisenemy apparently made miscalcu-
lation and sent a stone crushing through
the window of a Chinese laundry next
door. MIR. Anderson placed himself on
watch for the miscreant about two weeks
age, and discovered that it was his ad-
mirer. He saw her take apiece of brick

against his shop window and walk COM
pfacently away. He followed her to
Fifth and Walnut Streets, when she
turned upon him and said, why, Win,
lis it 'yorp + didn't suppose you had
Aturned spy. - Then he had her arrested.
Mrs. Anderson could not testify as to
the breaking, but said: 81 married the
man this woman wanted to marry. She
is in love with my husband and cannot
help it. z $500 ,-..s SD 4, @ a..
The prisoner took the stand, and it
was only by a great deal of ingenious
questioning that the prosecution drew
from her the admission: II raised my
hand as Ispassed Mr.. Anderson's house

with murder. The jury, after remain
ing out about an hour, found the woman
guilty, but recommended her. to the

cation as to the woman's mental conli-
tion. - Philadelphia Cor. N. 7. Times.

BEECHER'S RETRACTION.

The Plymouth Rector Handsomely Apollo
gizes for a Reflectson upon the Public
School Teachers CT Brooklyn.
New YORK. Jan. 15.-Rev. Henry Ward
Beecher before beginning his sermon to-day,
referred to his New Years sermon, and the
public schools of Brooklyn, and read the fol-
lowing: ga sentence in recent discourse
delivered by me in this place. has been widely
construed as rendering liable to suspicion, a
large body of citizens holding official relations
under our municipal government. / regard
the sentence as fairly eligible to such crih-
cism, and therefore disavow such intent and
annull the sentence. Especially do I regret
with emphasis any such construction
of my language, as shall throw
suspicion upon the integrity
of this large and honorable band of women
who teach in our public schools, whose la
borious land often thankless service / have
never failed to admire and commend. The
more emphatically do disclaim all wish or
intent to bring innocent parties under sus-
picion. revoke such sentences, and desire
they should be as if they had never been ut
tered. do it unsolicited by any party ag-
grieved of as publicly as l made them and in
the same place. Amen"
