A BRIDE WELL POSTED.


hold II TO be truth constantly self
evident, says Clara Belle in the Cineiu.
natl Enquirer, that every man will de-
fend woman against all men except
himself. IL you haven't noticed il 81.
rcudy, you have only to look for IL an
hour or so in any place Of mixture of
the sexes. Clap your eyes on a pretty
woman without male escort, and two
phenomena will become obvious. First
ly, there will be large amount of open
and covert staring at her, to all of which
her obliviousness is Of course only as
sumed. Secondly, il one of the stsrers
happens to realize that others are ut the
same game he will manifest plainly his
disgust at such treatment Of an unpro-
tected beauty, utterly ignoring his own
olIense.
A husband aud wife got INTO = street
car. The man was somewhat dudish In
dress The woman was under twenty,
aud as pretty as nature aud art are 10
the habit Of combining to produce. They
were chatting on the very subject that I
have here introduced.
"Percival. dear" said she, II will
prove to you that am right, aud take
only ten minutes to do it, if you'll prom
Use not to get angry about it,"
He closed the contract. Then she
drew herself up, US though the husband
sitting beside her was an entire stran-
ger, aud waited for the car TO OH with
passengers al Union Square.
Nov she whispered behind her
fan, "observe how I am ogled when
alone"
Within five minutes he saw that half
dozen masculine passengers, from hoasy
age TO callow youth, eyed his bride With
more or less audacity, and several man
ifestly would not have needed the small
est beginning of wink on her part to
seize upon her then and there. That
part Of the exhibition was triumph for
the wife, but the most curious feature OF
her experiment remained 70 be tried.
"You certainly do seem TO attract 4
great deal Of admiration" said the hus-
bsud, supposing that the pretended
strangeness WIS at an end
She lifted her eyebrows in simulated
surprise. us though an impairment fsl-
low had unwarrantedly accosted her,
and pointcdly turned her face from him.
He understood her now. and did not
speak 10 her further Next, she drew
her shoulder away from contact with
his. by this time the spectators were
believing that he was annoying her
dreadfully, and scornful Chances were
aimed ut him. Her final trick was con-
elusive. II consisted in suddenly pull
ing her skirts clear Of bis. trousers, and
deliberately setting her feet as far in the
other direction as the end Of the oar
would permit. Nobody doubted that the
dear, demure creature had been grossly
insulted A man arose from the oppo-
site side.
"Will you exchange seats with me ;"
he very CALAMITY and politely said, lift
ing his hat most deferentislly.
Now, he had been foremost among
the original oglers-the veriest simple
ton Of them all
Thank you, SIR" she replied, rs
bland as a white heifer, "but | prefer
to sit beside my husband"
Thus, with the same stone she killed
that vulturc bird and the dove-mate
whom she had undertaken to instruct rs
to the philosophy Of male gallantry.

Every man has two sducations, that
which is given 10 him and that which be
gives himself. OF tho two kinds, the
latter is by far the more valuable. In
deed, all that is most worthy in . man
be must work out and conquer for him
self. II is that which constitutes our
real aud best nourishmsnt. What we
are merely taught seldom nourisbes the
mind like that which we teach ourselves.

Additional Testimony Taken and the Prisoner

Additional Testimony Taken and the Prisoner
Held in $4,000 Bail.
New YORK. Feb. 16-Mrs. Yseult Dudley was
arraigned at Yorkville Police Court this morning
for shooting ODonevan Rosa, on Feb g Rosa
was not in court, and the prosecuting officer an
nounced that he would not call him, because
there was such excitement about dynamite at
present that extraneous events might interfere
with the orderly administration of justice. Ex-
Judge Fullerton and Lawyer Butts appeared
for Mrs. Dudley, who sat composedly near her
counsel and listened intently, but with little
evident concern, to the testimony of the wit
nesses fer the people When the prisoner was
asked whom she had shot, she said, "ODonovan
Rosa" When asked why she shot him, she re-
piled that she did it because she wanted to kill
him." and her reason for such desire was that
Rosa was an enemy to my country"
Sergeant James Gaylor, who was at the desk
at the station house when the prisoner was
brought in, testified to having taken her pistol,
and produced it in court.
The attorneys for the people then rested their
case. and the defense stated that no testimony
would be put in at this stage of the proceedings
Justice Patterson consented to fix bail at So 900
for the prisoners appearance before the grand
jury, and Mrs. Dudley was remanded pending
the appearance of bond.

Suit by Grandson to Recover Possession OF

WASHINGTON, Feb 16-Colonel Andrew
jackson, grandson of the late President Jack
son, who resides at the Hermitage, to-day took
out letters of administration on the estate of his
grandfather, and Immediately, through his So
licitors, John Paul Jones and Robert B. Lines
entered bill in equity setting forth that the
widow of the late Hon. Montgomery Blair and
her son. Woodbury. Blair. now have possession
of. and claim to own a large number of very val
liable papers, relating to the public and private
life of General Jackson, and praying an injnnc-
ton against the defendants to prevent them
from disposing of or publishing any of said
papers. 1t is stated that these papers
were placed in the hands of Amos
Kendall, in 1913. with view to the publication
of biography Of General jackson, which he
tKendall) had undertaken to write. The papers
were lost for many years. and finally found by
Colonel W. G. Terrell, of Kentucky, in 1879,
subsequent to the death of Kendall, when they
were placed in the hands of Montgomery Blair,
''for safe keeping" as Colonel jackson alleges in
his bill The representatives of Blair. however,
claim that the papers were given to Francis +.
Blair, ST., by General Jackson, and it is upon
this question that the suit just instituted will
