THE New York Court of Appeals has made
an example of Constantine Faher in way
that he doesn't enjoy. 1t appears that some
time ago he got a divorce, coupled with an
order from court that he should not marry
during the lifetime of his ex-wife. Like
cluded to marry again, and did so, despite
the inhibition of the court. Heretofore such
an act has been construed simply as mis-
nounced him guilty of bigamy and sen.
fenced him to five years in the pententary.

Beware the Bee,

Fort Wayne Gazette.
There Is no more chance for the success of
Joe Mcdonald in securing the nomination
than there has been for Hancock, who has
always run well year or two before the
election, but who is invariably set aside for
some more ADLER man." Joe is now stirring
and a cut, but in few months Joe will drop
out of sight until after the election, when,
like the jumping-jack, he will again make
his temperance. Woe unto that statesman
who gets the bee in his bonnet, for that is
the end of his usefulness as a statesman and
service TO his party.

Tornado Indications.

New York Herald.
The most marked indications of an i'm
pending tornado are a sultry, oppressive
condition of the atmosphere, peculiar still
ness that cannot fail to attract the attention
of those living in the vicinity, and at the
same time the appearance of very peculiar
cloud formations in the northwest and
southwest. Those cloud gradually approach
one another and out of tine cha os that fol-
lows their contact comes the great funnel
shaped tornado cloud, the lower extremity
OF which traces out, like a great fiuger, the
track of the devastating whirlwind.

The spiritual mediums who profess to
bring messages from the dead to their living
friends must hereafter, in Ohio pay $500 for

different, and the latter can safely be taxed
out of existence.

tanning several thousand dollars. He was OF
