Justice Cox Makes the EldrIdge Family
Happy by Divorce Decree.
An instance of divorce mutually desired
was shown yesterday in tho case of Reburta
Eldridge, nee Hansell, VS.. Watson W. Ed
ridge, and vice versa. As only one could
secure the boom and the husbands claim was
sustained By incoutrovertible proof. Judge
Cox granted the divorce to him. The first
petition was filed by tho wife on the 10Th Of
November last. In it she rccitod the fact that
on June 10, 1867, when only 16 years of age,
she married Mr.. Eldridgc, and that they had
lived together for sixteen years. Since the
birth of her second child she claimed that
she had been unable to perform the
duties imposed upon her by marriage
in consequence of her impaired health. On
this account she charged that her husband
had been rude and harsh to her, and finally
left his home, returning to that of his father
in Fairfax county, Virginia, and, despite her
| pleading, refused to come back or support her.
Mr.. Eldridge answered tho BILL through
| his solicitor, Mr.. ii. B. Mouton, denying tho
charges made against him, declaring that
the sickness of his wife was due chiefly to her
adultery with Charles r. Alexander and
| other men, and on account of her immoral
conduct he had been compelled to leave her,
but that he had paid $50 month for her
support. In addition he filed a cross bill
praying that ho might be granted divorce
from her, and charged that she began her
adulterons conduct in 1875 and continued it
down to Dec. 10, 1888, when he left her.
Mrs. Eldridge denied the truth Of any or
| all Of these charges. Testimony was taken
on both sides and then submitted to Justice
| Cox, who yesterday directed decree to he
drawn dsmissing tho petition of the wife and
granting Mr. Eldridge divorce Oh his cross

A Mothers Hope and Anguish.

Did you ever see baby die in its
mothers arms? The little lips livid
with the sluggish blood; the little nose
pinched and white; the dimples on its
cheeks and chin drawn into long, hard
lines, and tell the father it is dying, and
he puts it in its mothers arms, and
dashing tear from his eye, saws:
Mother, it is not for long. The death
dew is on its brow, and we must give it
up But she cannot give it up. She
says it must live, and She presses. it to
her warm bosom and prays in silence
once again, and breathes upon its pur-
pie fingers, and rocks it to and fro, and
chafes its feet and sings, so low you
scarce can hear it, some sweet lullaby.
hoping against hope, to WOO it back to
health and strength. Alas! She can
not stay the hand of death. Its breath
comes short and difficult, then ceases,
and the father says, "Tis dead" but
she, stunned and hoping yet, raises it in
her arms. 1t gasps, and she cries that
it will live, but no, that faint gasp was
the final struggle, and though she again
raises it, it breathes no more Mothers
baby is dead,--R. J, BuRDETTE.

Florida Sugar Cane.

The Philadelphia Record says Big
stalks of sugar-cane We're exhibited yes
terday in the offices Of the Okeechobee
Land Company as being some of the
products grown ON the reclaimed land in
Florida. A number of persons visited
the office for the purpose Of inspecting
the stalks, among whom was c. A.
Sparks, formerly of the firm of +. c..
knight 4 Co., who said that he never
saw such fine cane grow in Louisiana.
The stalks are u feet high and con-
tain % joints, and are 2l5 inches in di-
ameter. A Florida planter explained
that the stalks had been taken from a
plot of ground at Southport, near Lake
Tohopekaliga, which was covered with
water two years ago. Now the land is
five feet above the water level. The
cane was only planted in March last, yet
inside of nine months it has attained a
height of twelve feet. 1t will be exhib-
tied at the New Orleans Exposition as a
marvel of Florida's fertile soil.
The Okeechobee Company, it was
stated, was making great progress in its
reclamation enterprise. BY January list
next it will have reclaimed about ,000,-
600 acres. Much of the reclaimed land
has already been sold, and 100000 acres
of the land purchased from the State by
Mr.. Hamilton Disston have been dis
posed of and are now being used as or
ange groves and for cultivating sugar
cane, jute, pineapples and other tropical
products The taxable property in the
State has increased from $;s3 900, 900 to
10000, 900 in two years. This is said
to be due to the enterprise OF Mr.. Diss-
ton and other Philadelphia capitalists,
as more miles of railroad have been
built there in the past two years than in
the previous history of the State. The
success of the drainage scheme has
awakened such interest among Northern
capitalists that they have begun freely
to invest there. Near Southport num-
Der of Salem Mass citizens are start
ing big plantation. is claimed that
with one planting seven years crops Of
sugar-cane will be produced, while in
Louisiana the planters required to plant
every two years.

PICTURES OF snrNn.

Some remarkable photographs of a
pistol bullet in its fiight-under the illu-
mination OF an electric spark-have been
secured by Prof. f. Mach, of Prague,
He has also photographed the air
streams which one may see over Bun
sen burner placed in sunshine; and has
even obtained pictures OF waves of sound,
these last being made visible by meth
cd in which advantage is taken of the
irregular refraction of light by air set in
vibration by sound.
A French astronomer has found rea-
sons for believing that a circular protu-
berance-presumably a volcano-which
exists i'll the southern hemisphere OF
Venus has an elevation of not less than
seventy miles. He regards such vast
mountain as not incompatible with the
planets vocanic nature.
