One way to Get Rid Of Husbands.

Washington Special: Anotable woman
was at the White House recently-a bride
and her husband was with her, and the
visit seemed to have q melancholy interest
for him. 1t was the third time she had
been there and it was his first trip. She
told one Of the doofKeepers that when she
was first o bride she called on President
Grant. Her husband died shortly alter
ward. She called the next time when Presi,
dent Hayes was the occupant OF the White
House. On her return to her home in
Massachusetts her second husband caught
cold and he died in less than a year.. She
has been married again and came to this
city. She said she intended to be more
careful with her present husband than
either OF those who preceded him, and that
she had sci ected milder weather for her
bridal tour. Husband No. 3 stood by,
but did not nave much TO say, except that
he was much pleased with the looks oil tbs
president and everything he has seen solar

Skeletons.

Every physician, writes a Cincinnati
Enquirer correspondents must have q
skeleton as part of his outfit, and
therefore their preparation is an inn
portant feature in the profession.
Medical ltinerants have neither the
time nor the facilities TOR this work,
and hence it naturally falls into the
hands of the college j~anitor. Skele-
tons with him are an article of mer-
c~handise, the quotations being $50
for a very fine specimen, while an or
binary article is offered for $50. The
important but difficult task is to clean
the bones without marring them or
leaving the mark of the knife. 1t is
not necessary to tell how this Is done,
but the process is very simple. Each
janitor may get up twenty-five skele-
tons in a season, sometimes more
This forms a very important perquis-
lite, and indeed, if rightly improved,
his berth can be made very proftable-
There rs also o constant Importation
of skeletons from Paris, which is car
ried on by the dealers in surgical
instruments. The French have the
art of whitening the bones in a way
never attained in this country, and
the price is generally from $50 to
800. The Partisan establishments
excel in turning out the best skeletons
of children, and even of infants, and
some of the latter look like dear little
doll skeletons that one might want to
dandle in his arms or rock in the era
die. They n very cunning -looking
things, these dear little baby skele-
tons.

1t is not to be disputed that Sam
Jones and other preachers of his class
draw large crowds of Interested lis
teners wherever they 20. The tents in
which they hold their services are
thronged at every meeting, and few
leave until after the last hymn has
been sung and the benediction pro-
nounced. Without stopping to dis
cuss the question of the value of this
form of spreading the gospel, we may
find something to think about with
profit in looking for the causes which
serve to bring about such ~spectacles.
PROFESSIONALLY, curiosity and love Of
novelty have something to do with it.
Human nature is easily attracted by
departures from common custom-by
the fantastic and sensational-in any
direction, and particularly in matters
Of a serious description. We are a
reYerent people to a certain extent
and under certain conditions; but we
are continually hungry at the same
time for new methods Of discussion
and illustration to relieve the monot-
ony of inquiry concerning the solemn
aspect of life, present and to come.
The religious faculty is an inherent
one, and men of all sorts are m0r or
less subject to these promptings; and
theref6re whatever tends to present
religious truths and intesoses In an ex-
ceptional way is sure TO receive q GER
tam amount Of popular notice and
sympathy.
There arc plainly some qualities in

How the President Voted.

Buffalo Special to the New York World:
A sharp wind was blowing off the lake, and
the president. after walking a square orso,
stopped and buttoned up his light overcoat.
His shoes were brightly polished and his silk
hat had been carefully brushed. He walked
along leisurely, apparently enjoying the
familiar scenes and commenting mentally
on the changes and improv ements that had
been made in his absence. Nearing the poll
ing place he was AT once recognized by the
twenty-five orthirty people who were stand
ing about.
"Here comes. Cleve" said an Irishnan,
tossing up his cap.
Make way for Grover, y said another. j.
j, Mcbride, ared-faced Irishman wearing q
black SLOUGH hat and loosely fitting clothes,
rushed forward to be the first to greet the
president. Mr.. Cleveland shook hands
cratic ticket. "Put in neforD Davenport"
said a Republican worker, trying to be fun
NY. Mr.. Cleveland paid no attention to
this remark and walked up to the opening
where the ballots were deposited.
"Name, please" said the inspector, po-
litely bowing to the president
Grover Cleveland"
Where do you live?",
'Over Weeds hardware store, corner
Main and Swan Streets
"Got it?n asked the Inspector, turning
to the polling clerk.
The clerk nodded, and the presidents
ballot fell into the box. Mr.. Cleveland
then turned and greeted his acquaintance.
The Republican workers stepped forward
and shook hands with him. On being ask
ed il he was not out early he replied; Yes,
/ have always belieyedin voting early"

Curious Scene in a British Y. M. c. A.
Meeting.

Rev. Stuart Ross, formerly rector of
Christ church, at Belfast, Ireland, was adj
dressing the Plymouth, Eng Young Mems
Christian society recently, when Charles
Joy, tho Canadian immigration commits
sioner burst into the room and shouted,
"You hypocrite. you eloped with my
wife,. Ross turned pale and fed
from the room. His audience WIS surptised
and greatly exited. Themcment that many
ofthem realized what was She matter they
became a bowling mob and pursued their
lecturer for a mile, yelling all the time. At
this point Ross, who was breathless and
driven to bay, turned suddenly and stabbed
two of his most active pursuers. Others
coming up at the same moment seized and
disarmed the murderous rector. The po-
lice then put in an appearance and arrest
ed Ross. He was taken before a magis-
trate when charges were made against him
bail. Ross disappeared from Belfast
two children, Mrs. JOY, who was
O teacher In his Sunday school,
also disappeared at the same time, which
led to a report that the couple had eloped.
This rumor was confirmed whenMr. Joy re-
ceiyed q letter from Ross, in which the latter
said: .sYour wife has undergone malpractice
and YOU had better arrange for obtaining q
divorce from her. Mrs. JOY was found in
the prisoners lodgings, and when informed
of her paramour's arrest, gloried in her
connection with the Lords Amounted, =
as she called her Illicit lover. she attended
out the whole proceedings.
