He Leaves His Family and Sails for Europe
With Widow.
New York, January 29.-Albert
Bea is n good looking young police
man, who was detailed some time ago
from patrol duty to do special work
about the Central office in Mulberry
street. On last Wednesday he handed
in his resignation. Inquiry into the
reason of this action developed some
singular facts that created
much comment among the
inspectors and other officials.
Beal is Il married man and lived with
his wife ut No. l35 Bowery. The
couple had three children, all of whom
ago Beal transferred his affections
| from his wife to Mrs. Katrina Schiver,
"A pretty widow. who kept boarding
house at No. 3D. Bowery. Much OF
Beal's time after that was spent with
the widow. When he resigned from
the force he went TO his home and told
his wife she must yet ready and go
to philadelphia where her parents
were, rs he was going to leave the city
for some time. Mrs. Beal did not
ask any questions but packed NJ
her things and on Friday
went to Philadelphia. Mrs
SchiVcr heard n few weeks ago that she
had fallen heiresS to considerable,
amount of money i'm Germany, SO she
determined to go to Europe and claim
her windfall She formerly kept q
music store in the Bowery, and had
81 900 in the Bowery Savings Bank
She drew this out and also disposed o
her personal effects. She is though
TO have about 81 900 in cash with her
! Last Saturday morning she got in
carriage in front of her house, and bid

with her was Beal. He said he wa

The Cultivation of Celery.

To most persons, stalk OF crisp,
white celery is an always welcome and
delicious "rclish." Those who have
tried it find properly cooked celery
equally pleasing 10 the palate. No
more wholesome vegetable grows; aud
now that Ii is found to be not only gas.
Economically agreeable but of high
medical virtue as ravine, its popula-
rity is constantly on the increase. There
is no reason why every garden may
not have supply uf this excellent veg
etable, and The American Cultivator
gives some sesaorable hints on the best
mode of cultivating it on small scale.
Those who only care TO raise little FIR
their own use are advised to buy rather
than raise the plants, as the cheaper
way.
Land that was heavily manured in
the spring and a naturally rich soil is
the best adapted to this plant. A few
years ago it was thought necessary TO
dig trenches in which to plant it; now,
however, this is abandoned, but it re-
quires very deep tillage, and it is best
TO draw two burrows, the same as for
sugar-beets or mapgolds, and set them
in the bottom of the furrow. The land
best adapted to 1t is moist soil, as it
is saltwater plant.
The time to set ii out is from the
middle to the last of July. The rows
should be from four 10 five feet apart,
and the plants separated ten inches in
the row. After the first OF September
the soil should be drawn up to the plants
to keep them compact as possible, and
prevent the branches from spreading.
The more and oftner they are banked
up the better, so as not TO cover the
center shoot or bud; If this is covered
the plant will be smothered. There
are number ot different varieties IN
GU tlvatiOn; e.pt .aCy ditie- less la celery
than any other vegetable: The exce.-
lence of this vegetable depends more
upon culture than ucon variety. About
the last of October trench is generally
dug eighteen inches deep and twelve
inches wide, in some dry place where
water will not stand; the plant is then
lifted with 40 much dirt around the
roots as possible, that it may keep crisp,
and il will continue to grow some. The
rev, when properly packed, should be
covered with boards, over which lay
er of straw or leaves should be laid to
keep out the frost, and it's preservation
tor the winter use is secured.

From the Pail Mall Gaz.tte.

Mr.. Bright's appalling statement as
to the number Of families in Glasgow
living in only one room apiece is cap
ped by the statistics of overcrowding
in French cities given by M. Nadaud
in support Of his bill dealing with un-
healthy tenements. AccnrdioS to. M.
Nadaud there are 2ls ,270 houses in
France without any window whatever,
and to which light and air are admitted,
when admitted at all, only through the
door or hole in the door, which has
to be stopped up in wet or cold weather.
Allowing five people TO family, more
than / 900 900 persons altogether, must
be housed in this execrable fashion
In Paris, although $4,000 tenements
have been dealt with in the last 80
years under the act of 1870. there are
still between 5000 and 1000 families
living in single rooms without means OF
warming, and between 1000 and 5000
in single rooms with no aperature
for light and air-cupbo .rds in fact.
Between %. 900 and &c, 600 habitations
consist of a single room only. This
said Of the social question:" says the
report from which these statistics are
drawn'-a conclusion which is gradual
ly forcing itself on the minds of men in
9th er countries besides France.

Good humor is rightly reckoned

sees the ridiculous point of things, and
can turn an annoyance into an occa-
sion for laughter. 1t does a great deal
better to laugh over sCme domestic
mishaps than to cry or scold about
them. Many homes and lives are dull
because they are allowed to become
TOO deeply impressed with the cares
and responsibilities of life to recognize
it's bright and especially Its mirth!ul
side. In such household. good, but
dull, ithe advent OF a witty, humorous
friend is like sunshine on Il cloudy day.
While it is always oppressive TO hear
persons consta2ily striving to say witty
or funny things, il is comfortable, see
ing what brightener little fun is, to
make an effort TO make some at home.
1t is we'll TO turn cd an impatient ques-
ton sometimes and to regard II from

she said, 81 never guess conundrums;

they both laughed, and she went and
got his shirt, and nc fel, ashamed of
himself and kissed ner; and then she
felt happy, and SO what might have
been the occasion Tor hard words and
,,nkind feelings became just the con-
trary, all through the little vein of
humor that cropped out to the surface.

4 Little G,rl Sent by Express.
Ti;usville Penn. Herald.

At the Buffalo, New York and Phila-
delphia Station Yesterday, on the ar
rival of the 2.55 train, there stepped
down pert little miss of possibly four
winters and as many summers. Upon
her hat was pinned label with the
words "Titusville, Crawford County,
Penn.," and similar one decorated
her waist. These labels told more of
her than she herself could tell, for she
only knew that she was Maggie, the
daughter of John Brennan. 1t seems
that she came from Smithport, starting
yesterday morning, and though with
out ticket or money, had come through
direct and without missing connec-
ton. Inquiry further developed the
fact that several days ago Brennan, VINO
resides at Selkirk or Grand Valley, in
quired at the expess Office for little
girl who was to come through by ex-
press. 1t was this knowledge that en-

charge, and she will be sent to her
father TO-DAY.

Why She Was Pretty.

A New York beaut. whose COM
plexion at 60 was fresher than that of
cur women at 80, told her secret this
summer, and it was divided into two
parts: First-SAe never used washrag
or towel on her face, but washed il
with her hands, rinsing it oil with a
soft sponge. She used clear water III
the morning, but white CASTLE soap or
vesy warm water at night, and after
d-ylag i on soft towel she would take
(, fesh.brush, and r;b her cheeks, chin
and forehead. Secoud-If she was 60
ing 10 be up late at night she always
slept as many hours in the day as she
expected to be awake beyond her usual
time. She finished her little sermon
on beauty preservation by saying:
''Soft water and sound sleep keep oil
wril kles and spots, and girls should
give more attention to this than they
do, for
With the coming of the crows feet
Is the going of the beaux feet"

Sham Butter and Cheese.
Professor Sheldon. in low Homestead.

Can any one tell what dairying is
drifting to? We hear of all sorts of
queer monstrosities, from lard-ch eese
10 cotton-butter. No man knows what
he eats If he buys it. Stimulation is the
spirit of the age, and no end of science
and skill is employed to deceive. A
clever imitation is what man prefer TO
produce. and the public are lead to de-
vonr. The simplicity of gepuinenes is
out OF the. running, as things 90 in the
world. The public must eist what ia
given them, asking no questions. The
oleomargarine men have done terrible
lot Of mischief, and ofial is the god
whom they delightte honor and exalt.
At all points thsy ain 10 circumvent
the dairy man and swindle the public.
The taste of the people is degraded
by the sham batter and cheese which
seems TO be real. Mems stomachs now.
adays are sepulchres for strange abom-
inations which they ignorantly, rather
than innoccntly, swallow. This sort of
thing is leading them they know not
wAither, and posteriSy will pay the piper.
1t is no longer that which cometh out
Of, bu. that which goeth into, the mouth
that defles. Meats s.a drinks of many
kinds are what they pretend ,1~be, and
there is good deal OF "tricks thCt are
dark" in what passes for dairy goodS.
Whose falt is this? Well, in grAat
part the dairymen's, for they have spd
ed good milk. They have given "A
opening for the shoddy men of the dairy
who are growing rich out Of oftal. The
law complacently let's men sell what
they like, and the sham is, often enough,
better than the real one. Shoddy sells
well enough to be carefully made, and
80 the makers of counterfeit butter and
cheese do flourish. Dairymen who
make inferior butter and cheese, no
matter how real the goods may be, are
out of the running entirely. If ouly
the plate of the public is suited, it mat
ters not if the article be real or pretend.
cd, so careless dairymen can hardly
make ends meet and tie." But one
thing is clear: tho makers of first-class
cheese and butter can hold their own
against the nefarious stuff that is made
in any and every country. A wedding
out process is going on, and goods
which are mere simulations will take
the place SO long occupied by the pro
uuC'o VI hiih thHt WAS spOlIeu. II, tnen,
the oleomargarine business, the melted
tallow and other less creditable things,
shall result in bringing about thorough
reforms in dairy methods, we shall have
reason after all to be grateful to men
for whom few of us entertain feelings
that approach to respect or affection.
But let the public have fair protection,
let them know what they buy; then the
dairymcn viii win-if they want to; and
if they don't the fault IS their own.

a Miss Blackwell. That lady became
enamored to the soft-voiced James,"
aad he gallantIy returned her love, and
the couple were frequently seen in the

who did not know surmised that it
would all end in matrimony, but fate
decreed otherwise, and the deceived
