TATT0oED oNn HER ARM.
A COrious P8int Raised ira the Law
suit OF a Young Pennsylvania
widow.
From the Reading Eagle.

From the Reading Eagle.
A name tattOoed on woman's arm forms
the turning point III an odd case here before
Orphans Court judge Schwartz. The pretty
widow. Ellen Riege!. is suing for her share
OF her late husbands estate. and her step
children are using every legal means to pre-
vent her from recovering dollar on the
ground that she was not only not legally
married TO Mr.. Riege, but that she was the
undiyorced wife of man named Ribble.
now living in the West One of the strong
est point, in the case for the defendants Is
the allegation that the right arm of the
widow is tattOoed in blue ink with the word
s.Ribble." A number of witnesses lave
swon that the name is Ribble. while others
have testified that they could not tell
whether il was Ribbe or Riegel All had
seen the tattoo marks from distance. Some
witnesses Sw0re that the woman lived with
Ribbe as his wife.
The defendant averred that she was never
married to Ribble. but her only husband
was Riegel: that the pastor who married
them was dead. and that the records and
certificate were lost. Last year Riegel died
suddenly. He was all elderly man, and his
young widow was arrested, together with
one Charles Heisler, on the charge of hav-
ing poisoned him. They were subsequently
acquitted. The widow then brought suit to
recover her share of her late husbands
estate.
The trial has not yet been concluded. but
UP to this time the widows ann has not
been offered in evidence. Ii is known
definitely that the tattoOed letters read Rib
bic. but it is asserted that it was simply a
girlish freak, the tattOOing having been done
when she was girl aged II. and when Rib
bic was her beau and not her husband. 1t
is also asserted that eighteen years ago it
was quite the style for young country girls
to have their arms tattOOed with the names
of their beaux: that her husband, Riegel.
knew all these facts before they were mar
ried: that an attempt was made 70 tattoo the
maine over again so as to make il read RE
gel. but which attempt failed, and that MIR.
Riegel was convinced she had never before
been married.
Her attorneys have number of witnesses
subp0enaed to testify as to the custom OF
eighteen years ago. These witnesses, vino
are now respectable married women. have
tattOOed upon their arms the names or their
first beaux. who are not now their husbands.
The witnesses are making an effort 70 be eT-
cused from testifying. Whether they viii
succeed remains TO be seen. and the inter-
esting question is causing tiutteT among
number Of families whose wives and moth
ers have tattOOed arms.

FOR KISSERS.

The custom which prevails in Iceland Of
compelling a man 70 kiss every girl he
meets almost compels a man to hate the
glorious climate Of California-San Fran

i certain distinguished Cincinnatian SAYS
the proper way to kiss girl is to plant II in
the middle Of her hand and shut her fingers

An Improvements Noticed. But Fu-
turc Prospects Not Bright.
The past week in society, while showing
slight improvement upon the week pre-
SlouS, has still been anything but gay.
Either the available stock of social energy
has been so depleted by the gayeties of last
winter as to be unequal to the task of reviv-
Ing their ancient glOries, or else is being
heldSn reserve for the outdoor pursuits
which will come with the approaching sum-
mer.
The Bachelors bail, the Delta clubs ger
man and the entertainment of the Dramatic
club. which were so long looked forward to
by the fashionable world as the glittering
attractions of the future. have now faded
Into the past, and no one seems to have the
courage at this late day, to attempt any,
thing upon q similar scale. The promised
hop by the Boat club was crowded to the
wall by the Bachelors entertainment, aud
viii probably not occur until next fall. The
future presents nothing to the prophetic
vision of Jenkins, save gradually narrow
Ing vista of social activity, which at its
further extremity, fades into the uneventful
routine of midsummer dullneSS.

the Fate of an Umbrella.
A stranger in St. Paul, noting its pure
air and bracing breezes, would expect 10
find set of girls healthy, robust ana
hearty. Hebes and Dianas like their far
famed Canadian sisters; equal TO any
amount of bodily exercise, mcaPaple oL
fatioue sharing fairly with their brothers
aII onpn-air sports. But his fond imagin-
inos are doomed to disappointment; for our
1-oIno ladies' affect a totally different style,
Something on the languid lily ORDER and the
Younger the lady the more she drOOpS. In
deed, wherever or whenever you meet a 81.
PauI girl. whether walking or driving, at
marty or theater or even the roller rink, you
will instantly recognize her by that Dlase
air and Indifferent manner which she so
assiduously cultivateS. AmusementS ana
entertainments of all kinds are alike to her
stale fiat and Improbable; she cannot slt
ont the highest Of operas without frequent
recourse to a vinaigrette. AS for DOCKS;
she occasionally drops in at the library ana
asks if there is anything new, but Silo
doesn't usually find anything she cares IoI'
and then she has so many calls 10 make
that she doesn't have much time to read.
of course she hasn't time for study, though
she may. if she is remarkably clever, pant
little. She does, in the season, play lawn
tennis. as she has heard it is the proper
thing to do and as it affords such opportun-
ities for the display of becoming costumes
and graceful attitudes, but do not
tbinl, she. ever allows herself to
become excited over the game.
Ii probably has its admirers, this type OF
y0uug woman. or it couldn't exist but the
taste must be rather an acquired one, and
unless the dear creatures, like good wine,
improve in flavor with age what depths OF
