The Origin Of Billiards.

The game Of billiards was invented
abort the middle Of the sixteenth CEN
fury by London pawnbroker named
William Kew. In wet weather this
pawnbroker was In the habit Of taking
down the three balls and with the yard
stick pushing them, billiard fashion,
from the counter into the stalls In time
the idea OF board with side pockets,
suggested itself A binek letter manu-
script says. Master William Kew did
make one board whereby game is
played with three balls, and all the
young men were greatly rscreated there
at, chiefly the young clergymen from
ut. Pawlos. hence one OF ye strokes was
called canon, having been by one Of
ye clergymen invented. The game is
now known by the name OF 'billyard,
because William or Bill Kew did first
play with a yard measure. The stick Is
now called a kew or 'kue." 1t Is easy
to comprehend how "bill-yard' had
been nodernized into billiard" and
the transformation Of kew" into ''cue"
is equally apparent. American Sports.

other States recognize adultery as the only
ground for divorce. Indiana has seven
causes, either of which is sufficient to secure
divorce, while Kentucky has thirteen Ten
nessee has, as one of the recognized causes
for divorce, the refusal of wife to follow
husband who may choose to emgrate to that
State. In Alabama a wife may be divorced
on account OF cruel treatment by her hus-
band, but the order cannot be reversed if the
wife is cruel. The laws of some States pro-
vide that divorce shall be granted "for any
misconduct permanently destroying the hap
piness of petitioner and defeating the pur-
pose of marriage" A case that is believed
to be unique, even in the annals OF American
divorce law, is that of the Missouri judge
who sat in judgement in his own suit and
decreed unto himself a divorce from the
bonds of matrimony upon proof satisfactory
to himself that the defendant, his wife, had
''the mad dumps silently for three days"
From these facts it is plain that the exist
ing legal provisions and views of the mar

the rigid strictness, which regards
it an indissoluble, tie to the greatest laxity,
regarding it simply a treaty, bargain to be
dishonored at the caprice Of either party. 1t
will be seen that whether a man is biga-
mist depends largely upon the accident of
location. In one State he would be sure to
be convicted of having too many wives,
while in an adjoining one the law would be
made to declare that he had no wives at all.
The anomalies of this important subject
might be recounted indefinitely but enough
has been shown to demonstrate the necessity
of some concert of action. If State laws
cannot agree in all points, they should at
least hold marriages and divorces valid ac-
cording to the statutes of the State in which
they originated.

GREAT PAN is DEAD.

Unless all the people of this vast country
are to be bowed down with weight of woe
something must be done to restrain the
gloomy granger. Each year regularly he
kills off the corn or the wheat, the apple or
peach crop, but this year nothing less than
content with a prospective lack OF corn
bread or absence of the toothsome dumping.
the insatiate monster foreshadows a famine
where neither pone nor pie has any part
The corn was pretty effectively disposed of
early in the season, farmers being informed
that little of it had ripened thoroughly
enough to terminate They were advised to
carefully select the best they had for seed
and hope was expressed that out of the best
some might grow when planted. This hope
however, is now blasted. The extreme cold
weather. we are told, has frozen the germ in
such grains as were fortunate enough to pos
sess any, thus making the planting of
corn fields next spring useless and hope
less task. The wheat of course, was winter
killed some time ago. 1t is in the sleet
storm, however, that the sad prophet partic
ularly delights. In fall of rain which
turns to ice upon the trees, he revels with a
melancholy pleasure. He rises and goes
forth in the night to gather branches of the
peach, the cherry and apple trees. He ex-
amines the buds of these and finds they are
killed Dead! Ofcourse they are else what
is the use of sleet storm? The last storm
killed all the buds. Nothing is left alive
anywhere, according to this prognosticatori
Everything is dead which had not already
