Didn't Keep Everything
Washington Capital

Of the clothes worn by the opposite sex am reminded by little story tha, a lady prominent, in social and army circles told me a day or two since. She was speculating on the thousand and one pairs of slippers which the lady friends of our handsome president send him, not to mention other souvenirs by the cart load $ But, whether married or not, people will always send presents to president" said the lady. "Now there was General Grant-and they used to send presents to Mrs. Grant and Nelly, too-no end
 One time the general made Mrs. Gran, return some diamonds that had been sent her. know this to be fact. al- though the SKn would have us believe that General Grant never refused any thing. Another time a prominent and very wealthy lady said to me, while Mrs. Grant was still in the White House: . have just received the sweetest new bon net from Paris that you ever saw. But 1t isn't becoming it wicked shame and I'm going to send ito Mrs. Grant.

the jaw that makes him think he has bit on a thunderbolt. IL is not a hailable ofiense, and execution of sentence can- not be postponed until next term oi court. Do not run through the wet grass in your slippers" is shouted to him from the upstairs window. The instant the window is closed he skips across the lawn, knowing no one can see him, and for this he is collared and led into the house, doubled up with rheumatism for ten years, or perhaps tortured all the res, of his life. He plays lawn-tennis until he steams from every pore. Then he hastens to refresh himself with glass of clear cold ice water. If you drink that ice water,' says his watchful master, 1 will kill you He believes no one could be so cruel as that, and drinks the ice water. Often the conditions are ripe for the judgment, and the sentence is carried into execution. Sometimes the execution of this sentence is preceded by hours or days of fearful agony, to teach him that these laws are not to be trified with.

Tact and Beauty.
IOrnn,n lirii,

4 lady who had seen much of the world was asked on one occasion why plain girls often go, married sooner than handsome ones to which she replied that Il was owing mainly te the tact ot the plain girls, and the vanity and van, ot tao, on the part of men. How do you make that ou,::" asked gentleman. In this way" answered the lady The plain girls latter the men, and so please their vanity while the handsome ones wal, to be tiauered by the men. who haven't the tact to do H." There have been cases. however in which the si,ua- ton presented here has been reversed. and plain, and even ugly men, have sue ceeded in making themselves so agreea- ble to young ladies as 10 become their accepted suitors. Here is case in point. When Sheridan frs, met his second wife. who was then Miss Ogle, years of dissi- patton had sadly dishgured his once handsome features, and only his brilliant eyes were left to redeem a nose and cheeks too purple in hue for beauty What fright exclaimed Miss Ogle, loud enough for him to hear. Instead oi being annoyed by the remark. Sheridan al once engaged her in conversation. pu, forth all his powers of fascination. and resolved to make her not only reverse her opinion, but actually fall in love with hum. At their second meeting she thought him ugly, bu, certainly tascinat- ing. 4 week or two afterwards he had SC far succeeded in his design tha, she de clared she could no, live withou, him Her father refused his consent unless Sheridan could settle fifteen thousand pounds upon her, and in his usual mirac. ulous way he found the money

admit of her taking her eyes oG the old housekeeper as, advancing nearer, she actually proceeded to go all around the bed, tucking In the clothes methodically on every side; stand for a moment as though gazing on the sleeping form of the judge, heave deep sigh, then re- possessing herself of her lamp, glide ou, of the room as though in some indefinite way. She was dissolved, jingling keys, lamp and all, into a component part of the very atmosphere.
 As may well be imagined, the remain der of the night was passed any other way than sleeping, and with the first gleams of daylight the adventurous spirit arose, eagerly seeking other quar- ters. At the breakfast table, to the eager queries as to whether or not old Rachael had made her appearance, our heroine gave graphic account of her nights ex- perience, describing minutely every feature and article of dress worn by the ghostly visitant, which eorroboratcd ex- actly with that seen by former occupants of the chamber, of which the family had been careful to keep back every det ail, that the vision, should it make known its presence. could not be said 10 have been evoked by an overcharged magma ton.
 The time of which we have made men, ton was strangely enough the very last upon which the unquif spirit roamed through its old masters quarters. Among the many guests at the old homestead came, nearly two years since, one who professed himself to be somewhat of a spiritualist Thereupon, of course, a seance was held, at which were present every occupant of the house, and the spirit of Rachael Ten Eyck evoked to come forth from its biding place and communicate with the medium. Aston ishment ran high when the entertain ment, begun half in jest, ended in sober earnest. In answer to the summons the old housekeeper signifed her presence in the usual way. and when asked if there was aught she would communicate, re- sponded in the affirmative. Subsequent inquiry elieited the fact that the myste- rious disappearance years before of the valuable pieces of family silver was due to her having first secreted them. and finally causing them to be melted up into shapcless mass, which found its way eventually into the mint, 10 her worldly aggrandzement and spiritual discom- hture. When asked to state the place of the burial she gave q name, al first dis credited by those of her hearers. who were supposed to be cognizant ot all the facts relating to her death and final in- terment, but which subsequent investiga- ton proved to be the right spot And fhus if was zfter lonu years of SiiaprA the conscienee-strcken old housekeeper unburdened her guilty soul. thereby en abling her unquiei spirit to cease it's wan derines and lay quietly in its grave, for since that time no one has ever seen the trim little figure Hitting about the judge chamber or been able by any amount of seances to gain the slightes, manifesto ton from the troubled spirit of Rachael Ten t.yck. for so long tune the much talked-oi Van Courtland ghost

Wants TO Suicide.

Lockport, 15.-Csptsin J. D. Rhodes,
the Salamanca swimmer of some note,
having life preserving armor patented
by himself, who in 1877 dove from 8
staging one hundred feet high near the
ferry landing, Niagara river, now writes
Superintendent Nelson of Prospect
park, that he will use his srmor and give
$1,000 bond to swim the rapids and
whirlpool, doing this at any time be-
tween now and September 18th, and he
desired TO make arrangements with the
PARK company, cfaring to deposit $1,000
with them IS security. Mr.. Nelson
wrote him declining to be party in the
suicidal attempt. Rhodes replied that
he should come to the falls and if the
authorities would not give him an OPP
Dortunity, he would cross to the Cana
dian side from Captain Webb's starting
point and show to the world what his life
saving armor will do. He says: ct is not
for any notoriety or money that l will
attempt this, but purely to demonstrate
that nay srmor will, with my ability and
strength, carry me safely through. I
shall come to the falls within nine Gays
and make my points and carry out my
plans, and the first person who shall en-
desver to retsrd my progress l will take
uader my arm and give him bath"
An oil barrel half fllsd With water,
then headed tight and decorated with
flags, went safely through the rapids
this morning and at no time was entirely
submerged.
