cape, but was overpowercd. Burns is one
OF the coolest and most desperate burglars
in the country. He il twenty-cight years

troit production. He served part OF ten
years term in Jackson and Ionia state

was captured at Louisville, KY, and fin
ished his term at Ionia last year. 1t is not
certain that Burns can he convicted as the
only evidence will be such as the victims OF
the ''gentlemaily burglar" can furnish in
the way OF Identification. Burns native
heath is Detroit, his field OF operations being
over an area in which are included st. Louis,
Toledo, Detroit and st. Paul. He is a not

asa professional perfect type. all llthrough

Burns work have been plain, and he has
been closely watched. lfthe charges against
him in Detroit are not proved or pushed,
Burns will probably be brought to st. Paul

The Cholera at marseillcs.

BILE and well defined development OF the dis
case since June, while the authorities have
persistently denied it's presence, and have
done nothing to rctard it's progress. Its

war the sight became so common that
/ could almost step upon tho dead to

tho dead upon the battle fields and
chucklc over their findings. Just so it
is with the rich. They get utterly
hardened to provcrty and pass on.
They will weep over pathetic acting

Roller Skating Did It.

Utica Herald: Living with an aged grand
mother in WhitestownIast fall was young
girl about fifteen years of nge, who was in
the enjoyment OF almost perfect health nnd
possessed OF I. rugged constitution. She
scarcely ever was i'll, and was much vi ronger
thnn the average female at her age. Tho
skating rink seemed to offer IL very peculiar
attraction for her. She was IL remarkably
graceful skater, and the company ut the
rink being agreeable, the greater part of her
time was spent within it's wallis. Every
night and often afternoons, she was at
some rink enjoying the fascinating sport on
the rollers. She went on in this way for
some time, until FRUSTRATED by exhaustion.
She was treated for this, but grew worse
instead OF better and finally she became u
rnving inaniac, reqirng main force to keep
lierquiet. Ancx;lminationr revealed that her
spine had been injured, and the physicians
gave it as their positive opinion that it
was caused by too much roller skating.
The injury to the spine, OF course, affected
the brain, producing insanity. The certif.
cate two reputable physicians pronounc-
ing her insane beinspresented to the court,
commitment papers were issued, and the
following day the insane young lady was
placed in the state lunatic asylum in this

ankles. Not a few of them wear two
or three elastics for the same purpose.
But this corset will havo to bo jaunty
and graceful.looking or else no CIR
will wear it. The great ambition o!
tho girls now is to attain style and
grace rather than speed and comfort.
SO the ankle corscts will have to sur
vlvc a terrible scouting before the rink
queens will accept them"
"Do tho ankles of tho girl skaters
really require corsets or braccs?"
Gas rule they do. If there ankles
are weak and in trying to cut didos on
skates they happen to turn, tho corset
will certainly be of advantage to pre-
vent spraning. The ankle is the part
of the human body most liable to dam
age in skating. ii is frequently weak
and rickety and uncertain about turn
ing. Therefore my impression is tho
ankle corset will be the next wrinkle
to sell in conjunction with skates.

Corsets for the Ankles.

"1'he man who invented the ankel
corset will make fortune by it," re-
marked the superintendent of popu-
lar rink uptown where 4.OOO people
skate daily.
"Havc you tried it yct?" asked a re-
porter
"No; 1 haven't even seen it. But l
think it will be success. Some pco-
pic in skating never keep their ankles
still. 1t impcdes their speed and
makes them tire quickly. Now this
ankle corset rs l understand it, is a
brace for the ankle to keep it from
turning. If it is properly constructed
it is bound to be Of great assistance.
Many young ladies now in skating
wear high-laced shoes to brace their
