An exchange remarks that the stranger
on the streets OF Dakota town observes
that every man he meets moves with
light springy step with head erect and
with sparkling eyes. The women skip
lightly over the pavements as if each
nerve was a hidden spring, and then
cheeks are tinged with bloom that
comes not from the druggist. Their ev
cry movement is suggestive of life anc
animation, and their faces are pleasing
pictures of perfect health. Men and wo
men alike trip along the streets as if in {
hurry to reach some given point. They
meet and pass acquaintance with socla
nod, a bright smile and CHEEKY salutatiol
so CHEEKY that one would think tha
care or trouble had never invaded th'
territory.

In all Europe there is no more lovable
city than Frankfort on-the- Main. l
have met Americans who were as en-.
thusiastic about it as Madame de StaeI
was about Paris, and as much delighted
to make it their home. The Frankfurt
ters themselves regard it as an excel
lent place to stay. Not many of them
indeed, especially of the older stock
can be persuaded to leave it. There
are not few of its families whose per-
spicuous annals of residence extend
back through long line of ancestry,
for two or three centuries. There are
banks and other business houses whose
present name and location have been
continuous for 100 to $50 years. The
city itself dates back to the time OF
Charlemagne. One of its stone bridges,
spanning the River Nam, is said to
have been built eight or nine centuries
ago. A legend tells us it was placed
there by his Santanic Majesty, on
special contract with the city fathers,
that he should have the soul of the first
creature that should pass over it, When
it was finished the shrewd Frankfurters
sent rooster across it, thereby show
ing themselves smarter than the sly
party of the second part. An image of
the rooster, surmouuting pole set up
on the bridge, commentaries the event
and confirms the truth of the story

Bigamy is crime very much more
common among men than among wom-
en-, but, occasionally there is female
bigamist with long record of matrimo-
NAL experiences. A late trial in New
York has attracted good deal of at
tention. A woman who now calls her.
self Annie E. Whetmore, was arrested
some time ago for bigamy in marrying
man named Halves, whom she was be-
heved to know was already married.
Her trial lasted several days, and
though Halves turned states evidence
she was triumphantly acquitted. In
the course of the trial it came out that
the woman, who is not old by any
means, had at various times in her ca
reer and at various places compris-
ing about half of the states of the Union,
been Mrs. Gentles. Mrs. Wallingford,
Mrs. Collier, Mrs. Tiffany, Mrs. Red
heffer, Mrs. Baukert, Mrs. Hooper,
Mrs. Peacock, and finally Mrs Halves.
From all of these varied marital obliga-
tons, except the last, she had been
freed by divorce, usually applied for
and obtained within few months after
the ceremony of marriage. She always
managed to have good case, and her
husbands do not appear to have thrown
any impediment in the way of her
fullest liberty.

The King and Emperor business in
Europe has seemed to be in fatal de-
cline, and doubtless it is, but King
Humbert of Italy has SO conducted him
self during the cholera visitation, as to
relieve the whole Kingly procession to
some extent, from utter uselessness and
worse. 1t is not much, perhaps, that
he should visit the hospitals of plague
stricken Naples. Priests and doctors
do that in the course of their profess
sional duty, and would be cursed and
dispised as selfish cravens if they did
not, and royalty is profession which
has its obligations as well as any other.
But the simple manliness of his
bearing, his frank sympathy, bring
ing hope and cheer into those
dreary abodes of misery, are not
professional, but personal qualities.
A correspondent says that in visiting
one of the Naples hospitals the king
passed through the wards calmly, with
out haste, conversing with those who
were able to answer him, noting down
their requests and shaking hands with
many who could not speak. A cigar
was offere him as safeguard against
infection, but he smilingly declined it.
saying: ave must not spell the air
for the patients. When he had pas
sed through the wards on the first floor,
he was told there was no more to be
seen, but he said: "There must be q
second story; let us go there also. We
are all equal here"
