GovEEFoR TRITLE is at Tombstone and was accorded a public reception Tuesday evening, by the denizens of that lively and lawless town. It is probable that the purpose of the governors visit is to inves- tigate the deeds and doings of the cut throats who are terrorizing that section, and to institute measures for their prompt suppression. At least it is hoped that such is the purpose of his mission, for it is evident that the present disgraceful and hurtful condition of affairs there will con- tinue till ho does step in and call halt The local authorities have shown them selves utterly incapable of bringing the bandit.i to terms, and the respectable ele- ment does not seem to have in their com position enough of that ingredient called sand, to undertake the plotting out of the blood hounds

women as Listeners.
ESTABLISHED AUGUST, IS

Woman is primarily being who listens
She has in these days lost much of her ORR
ginal teachableness, but she has not yet
entirely discarded the appearance of being
teachable. In her capacity for hearing
without obeying lies her true power As a
talker she has her peers as listener she is
unequalled.
IL, as French writer says, the CONVERSE
tion Of women in society is like the straw
in which china is packed-worthless in it
self, but without which everything would
be broken-the listening of women is what
saves us from a babel OF tongues that would
bring the sky about our ears in no time.
Not that woman is always, or, as rule,
unwilling to use her tongue there is no
need of being radical), but the listener who
encourages you with eyes and expression
and appreciative laughter is woman. She
never lets her glance wander in an absent
manner, to be brought back to meet yours
at an important point with an effort at
which you are both keeEly conscious. To
whom are you tempted to relate bits of
curious personal xperience, the suffering
caused by some random arrow of outrageous
fortune. the fancies (suggested by some
book, some view, some journey? To a
clever, sympathetic woman, whose eyes
brighten with interest or sadden with
sympathy as she listens who seems to anti
cipate your next word with eager pleasure
and who, for some reason or other, just
then, while you are in this confidential
mood, has very view experiences of her
own to communicate-onlyh hints at them
Just enough to keep you in countenance

HOrsefiesh for Food.

The open consumption of horseAesh is
decidedly extensive in Germany, aAd is
growing, A very careful supe rvision is
exercised over tho trade in Berlin. The
inspector has list of the stables where the
existence ofany contagious disease has been
reported, and if he finds that the animal
brought before him comes from any of these
a prosecution against the seller is at once
instituted. Should the horse be found by
the veterinary surgeons to be suffering from
any disease not contagious, it is at once
killed. but the body is sent to the Zoologi-
cal Gardens. The Berlin butcher pays about
$10.50 for a piece of horsefesh weighing
from two hundred and fifty to three hun
dred pounds, but he retails it at ten cents a
pound for the fllet. six and one-fourth
cents per pound for the other pieces, and
five cents for parts only fit to be made into
sausages; and as thorsefesh is naturally
very dry, good deal of it can be utilized
by being mixed with lard and converted
into sausages, which, it may be added here,
it is shrewdly suspected, are largely con-
sumed by persons who are little aware of
what they are eating. In one or two other
German towns the consumption of horse
flesh is, in proportion to their population,
even larger than in Berlin. In Breslau, for
instance, town with two hundred and
fifty thousand inhabitants, two thousand
horses are killed annually for the market
and in Altoona, with a population of one
hundred thousand, the number reaches
fifteen hundred. In tho western provinces
on the other hand, horsefesh is more
rarely eaten, even in the more densely
peopled townsville average number Of
horses killed annually in Dortmund being
only two hundred and forty, aud in Biel-
field about one hundred.

low the Great Amuse Themselves

IL is curious to notice how men who
have been noted for their polish and cul-
ture as writers or conversationalists have
in their leisure moments found q strange
pleasure in associating with their interiors,
Prior, one of the most elegant of minor
poets the companion Of princes and diplo-
matists, constantly passed whole evenings
in chatting with common soldier and his
slattern wife in low public house in Long
Acre. Thomas Warton, the historian OF
English poetry, and singularly refined
scholar, was often to be found in sordid
taverns, joking and being joked. Person
and Elmsley had similar propensities. So
also had Turner the painter. Macbiavelli
and Burke delighted to forget politics by
sharing the labors of their farm servants !;
and even the stately Bolingbroke was not
above shouldering q prong, as we learn
from one of Pope's most delightful letters.
Byron's principal amusement during his
residence at Venice was shooting for hours
with pistol at coin in cleft stick, and
that simple pursuit he practiced more
methodically than any other thing in his
unmethodical life. The Conqueror was
devoted to the hunting field, Glowing the
tall deer as il he were their father" says
the old chronicler Henry V. was the
slave of tennis, and Edward ". of falconry.
Tiberius and Louis the XI., the Tiberius
of modern Europe, delighted to shut them
selves up with astrologers and quack pro-
phets. But 1t is time to turn to more &C.
centricc frivolities. Philip the Good of
Burgundy spent enormous sums of money
in contriving houses full of hidden trap
doors, false roofs, undermined floors, and
the like. He would invite guests to a
grand banquet which would suddenly dis
appear; he would introduce them.4o magni-
ficent salons, which would dissolve in
ruin, the guest finding himself one time
falling through space, at another time
soused with water or banged with sacks
which came tumbling, charged with flour.

more extraordinary recreations of Alexan-
der VI, and Caesar Borgia in Italy, and OF
Louis Kill, in France we cannot enter fol

Reported Marriage OF n Priest.

A dispatch from Hartford Conn, to the
New York Herald says: Information has
been received here that The Rev. Father
Edward Agudi, assistant priest at St.
Joseph's Church, in Winsted, Conn.,, has
finally dissolved himself from the
church by the unusual course of getting
married. Father Agudi left Winsted on
the 30th of January, ostensibly to attend a
convention of priests in Boston, and until
this week was believed by Father Leo, pas
tor Of st. Joseph's, to have remained in
that city. The fact has now been ascer-
tanned that Father Agudi went from Win
sted to New Haven, and was there married
to Bridget d. Welsh, daughter of Patrick
Welsh, of that city. The girl had formerly
been employed in Winsted, and had at
tended st. Joseph's Church. The marriage
ceremony is reported to have been per.
formed by a Methodist clergyman. The
couple have located in Bridgeport, wher,

NJ. Sardou has been the victim of Portu-
guese playwright who, not content with
surreptitiously obtaining copy of his
comedy "Divorcons" has not yet
been printed-and producing mangled
version at the Dona Maria Theatre, in Lis
bon, has vcntured to publish pretended
letter from the author expressing his salts
faction at hearing of the success of the
Portuguese version. The forged document,
which is published in a Lisbon paper under
the heading "a Letter from NJ. Sardou."
is said to be copy of Of letter of Alexan-
DIRE Dumas on some bygone occasion. 1t is
written in excellent French, its only fault
being some slight mistake in the spelling of
names such as M. Polka instead Of NJ.
Polca. For these trifing blemishes the
Portuguese adaptor, in forwarding the let
ter for publication, is kind enou gh to apol-
ogize. 1--WE preserve (he says scrupulous-
ly the mistakes IN photography; French

A Shrewd PetidIer.

Sharp dealing is confined to neither place
nor people. In small German town an
inn-keeper, to get rid of book peddler's
opportunities, bought an almanac from
him, and putting it in his pocket left the
inn, his wife just then coming in to take
his place. The woman was then persuaded
to buy an almanac, not knowing that her
husband had one already. The husband
shortly returning and discovering the
trick, sent his porter to the railway station
after the peddler, with a message that he
wished to see the latter on important
business "Oh, yes," said the peddler, 81
know, he wants one of my almanacs, but
really can't miss my train for that. You
can give me quarter and take the almanac
to him." The porter paid the money and
carried the third almanac to the innkeeper,

Curing a Child Smoker.

InuINhHpOIS NEWS,
Mention was made in the NepS, some
weeks ago, of a four-year-old boy at the
surgical institute, who had been an invet-
crate smoker for over two years. The lit
tie fellow was at that time unable to walk,
owing to complicated spinal troubles, be-
lieved largely to originate from an unlimi-
ted use of narcotics, the child ordinarily
smoking twenty cigars daily, besides innu-
merable cigarettes. Since treatment of the
case began no tobacco has been given him,
and he is now able to walk and in q fair
way to recovery. At least no harm was
done by the sudden breaking of a bad habit
and the boys body and mind give indica.
tions of healthy Improvement.

Cotton Gambling,

advertiseIthat they have been appointed q
committee to manage the guessing pools of
the Little Rock Cotton and Produce Ex-
change and prescribe the rules under which
they will be conducted. They say the OBJ
ject of the'pools is to give any one an oppor-
tunity to make an estimate on the cotton

general pool. When the crop figures are
made up in September, the one who has
made the nearest guess to the amount of
the crop gets the entire pool after the de-
duction of expenses.

Whether or not famine exists in certain
parishes of Louisiana is yet an unsolved

appeal for help to the public, to the State

questionable evidence has since been pro-

that the people of the seven parishes in

Chapel of Gurteen, County Sligo. The
pews were put up at auction by the late
parish priest and let TO the highest bid
ders. His successor, however, gave notice
that he would not abide by this arrange
ment, and second sale was held. The ri
val bidders became excited and ultimately
engaged in a fight which made it neces-
sary to call in the police. The next :Sun-
day divine service had scarcely ended
when the two factions renewed the fight
and smashed the pews. The victors carried
away the fragments as trophies, and pa.

farmer in England recently sought
solace for his lacerated affections by bring
ing breach of promise suit against his too
trial, that she was ready to marry him if he
would discontinue the suit and pay the
costs. This proposition he declined, al
though stoutly contending that he "loyed
the girl better than the costs" Then the
sensible jury rendered a verdict in his
favor for one farthing damages and the
equally sensible Judge decreed that since
he wouldn't pay costs to secure the mai
den's hand, he must now pay the costs af-
ter all, and be content with the joys OF
single blessedness.

A singular and humiliating fate has over
taken respectable citizen Of Cape Colony
on the public highway. While walking
innocently upon thoroughfare where he
had a perfect right to be he was beset by a
sanguinary ostrich and actually kicked TO
death. 1t is doubtless annoying to receive
ones coup de grace at the heels of a mule,
but as every one lives in constant fear if
not in momentary expectation Of such a
fate, it is at least a time-hallowed mode of
departure. But the Cape Colony victim
had small reason to anticipate quietu1
from the ostrich, and must have felt in his
last moments that he had been shamefully
imposed on.
