Rules for BATHING.

The Royal Humane Society recon-
mends to thenotice of the English public
a code of rules published by the society,
and entitled, "Caution to Bathers. "
They are as follows:
Avoid bathing within two hours after
a meal.
Avoid bathing when exhausted by ia
tigue or from any other cause.
Avoid bathing when the body is cool
ing after perspiration.
Avoid bathing altogether in the open
air if, after having been a short time in
the water, it causes a sense of chilllness,
with numbness of hands and feet.
Battle when the body is warm, provid-
ed no time is lost in getting into the wa
ter.
Avoid chilling the body by sitting or
standing undressed on the banks or in
boats after having been in the water.
Avoid remaining too long In the va
ter-leave the water Immediately there
is the slightest feeling of chilliness.
The vigorous and strong may battle
early in the morning on an empty
stomach.
The young, and those who are weak,
had better battle two or three hours
after meal-the best time for such is
from two TO three hours after breakfast.
Those who are subject to attacks of
giddiness or faintness, and those who
suffer from palpitaticn and other sense
of discomfort at the heart, should not
battle without first consulting their
medical adviser,

day last week tall German, of wild as
pect, had to be forcibly removed from

cause of his too emphatic demands for
payment of bond which he really had
lost. This unfortunate person alleged
that the spirits were in league against
him, but that they could be frustrated if
the treasury officials would but do him
justice. There is another unfortunate
claimant whose diminutive frame and
babbling tongue are familiar in every of
flee in Washington. This persons claims
against the government are always SO

to send him from one official to another

pers, which he carries about securely

A Really New Fish Story.
(From the Philadelphia Press.]


Four ladies, a nurse and 10-year
old urchin in blue petticoats, leaned
eagerly over the gunwale in a boat off
Atlantic City intent on capture. Sud
denly the young lady of the party gave
vent TO wild scream, and began wiring
ing her hands over the side of the boat.
The gulls continued to snap the unwsry
minnows from the reedy marge, the vo-
racious schools of weakfsh continued
to take the hook as fast asst was lowered,
yet heaven and earth were duly called
to witness the maiden's distress. Play
ing the line from the tips of her fingers
hungry weakish had captured the
hook just as diamond ring slipped from
her dainty fingers down the cord. Weak
fish have peculiar practice, when the
hook has struck, of opening their mouths
and shaking their heads. The fish in
question OPPORTUNITY opened his mouth,
received the ring on top of the hook and
was at once pulled to the surface and to

The Most BashfuI Bridegroo m.

A young man down near river in
Georgia was to be married on a certain
night. He had seen and loved the girl
and ewas too bashful to do his court
ing, SO it had to be done by proxy. The
day had arrived. the guests assembled,
the license procured, the parson on
hand and the bride ready, but theyouth-
full groom did not turn up, The friend
who had done the counting went out and
after looking around found him sitting
or lying in horse trough. On asking
him why he did not go INTO the house to
be married, he said: sob, I can't go
thar and stand before them folks. -
"Oh, yes, you can; everybody in there
is married but your girl. Come on. "
SECT her to come out doors and we'll
marry under the shed but let the old
folks stay in the house." The friend
went back, got the girl and parson out
without exciting any suspicion, and they
were married. The company waited two
or three hours, and on being invited to
supper were introduced to the bride
and groom. They became so indignant
that all left without partaking of the
supper.

In an interview with one who claims to

everything arranged, even to the races
each should win. Hanlan won his race
according to agreement, and then re-
fused to allow Courtney the second
match unless he should win it by su-

a large amount of money staked on him,

A Mormon MARTYR,

Belle Harris is heroine and martyr
in the eyes of the Mormons. She is
confined in the penitentiary, near Salt
Lake City, where she is daily visited by
men and women high in the church,
who continually exhort her to hold firm,
and not betray her Savior into the hands
of the Gentiles. In the Mormon belief
woman's husband is her only savior,
and she cannot be raised after death ex-
cept through him. Bellies case is
test one under the Edmunds law. Sew
eral years ago saint named Clarence
Merrill took her for his third wife. She
has borne two children, whose paterni-
ty has never been questioned. Merrill
is being prosecuted for polygamy. Belle
Harris was summoned as a witness.
We're you ever married? She refused
to answer questions as to her marriage.
Consequently she was adjudged guilty
of contempt OF court, and sentenced to
pay a fine of $25, also to be imprisoned
until she should become trastable wit

A New Career for Women.

In connection with the current talk
about the opening of the new careers
for women, the Pail Mall Gazette thinks
that lady whose mode of life recently
occupied the common pleas division at
Dublin deserves no little credit. She
had devoted her more mature years to
the study of law, and more particularly
to the law of breach of promise. The
novelty of her case consistedin the num-
Der of actions which she managed to run
at the same time. In her last case the
unacceptable jury awarded her only $50,
but on her cross-examination In that
case she confessed to having just sued
another gentleman whom she Greatly
loved" in spite of his seventy winters,
and from whom she had obtained $500
damages. In third case sheis believed
to have been more successful still, hav-
ing induced the defendant to comprom-
Use it by payment of s., 900. It is per-
haps in view of the enterprise of this
lady and of others, who are carrying on
a like lucrative industry that an English
Judge remarked In court the other day
that he was not at all surprised that
many people advocated the abolition OF
actions for breach of promise.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August g.
SSenor Conarraubias, of the Mexican Lee
CATION, speaking of the rumored often
sive and defensive treaty between Mex
leo and Prussia, said: "That rumor
has no foundation, to my certain knowl-
edge. A treaty has recently been rati-
fed between Germany and Mexico, but
1t is a commercial treaty almost similar
to that pending before the American
senate. This treaty with Germany is
not a secret treaty, but will be publish
ed In few days. With this rumor is
coupled a statement that there is a
bitter feeling among Mexicans against
Americans. Nothing could be
more remote from the truth.
When American capital was first in
troduced there was a general dissatisfac-
ton among the lower classes, for they
believed it was step toward the annex
alton Of Mexico. OF course the educated
people knew there was not the slightest
political significance III this fact, and it
was not long before this feeling of dis
satisfaction totally expired. Now there
is nothing but the friendliest feeling ex-
listing between the citizens of the two
republics. These railroads that have
been built mark an important era of
prosperity for Mexico. Only recently,
by the means of the new railroads, the
government was able to quell form1d-
able revolution which had been started
In one of our sections. There are sew
eral men going about through this
country getting themselves interviewed
and trying to influence the country
against Mexico. There is a man who
followed Diaz around while he was here
begging him to use his influence to get
an Office under the Mexican government.
Diaz refused to have anything to do
with him, and he uses the newspapers to
vent his spite on him. This man is a
professional officeseeker, and, while he
is citizen of the United States, sus-
pect that good Office would make him
renounce his allegiance in fifteen
minutes. [ wish to further say that at
no time have the relations between the
United States and Mexico been more
friendly than at the present time"
