waves. The groom was spruced upin

Simon and She are Out.

At Shelbyville, ILL.,, some eighteen or
twenty years ago Simon Gollogher won
and welded Miss Van Hise. They have
lived happily together, and six children
have been born to them. They appeared
before a lawyer OF ofShelbyville a fortnight
ago and stated their case, and asked
him to make out the papers in accor-
dance with their desires. He told them
to go home and reconsider the matter
for two weeks; and then if they had not
changed their minds, he would do as
they mutually desired. They did SO,
and when the time agreed upon had ex-
pired they returned still intent upon
separation, and the papers were made
out and signed. Though worth $50, 900
or $40, 600, the ex-husband only agrees
to give his late wife ST. 500 and the Gus
tody of the glrls-four in number-he
taking the two boys and agreeing to
clothe the youngest, the babe. Neither
will give any reason for their enstrange-
ment, the matter being a complete sur
prise to even their nearest relatives.

An Extraordinary Kind of Book.

In the agricultural department of a
library Of Warenstein, near Cassel, Ger
many, may be seen most novel collec-
tion of books. AT first glance they ap-
pear like rough blocks of wood, but on
closer examination it is found that each
is complete history Of the tree it repre-
sents. AT the back OF the book the
bark has been removed from space
large enough to admit the scientific and
the common name of the tree as a title.
One side is formed from the split wood
of the tree showing its grain and natur-
al fracture; the other shows the wood
when worked smooth and vanished.
One end shows the grain as left by the
saw, the other the finely polished wood.
On opening the book one finds the
fruit. seeds, leaves, and other products
of the tree, the moss which grows upon
its trunk, and the insects which feed
upon the various parts Of the tree. To
all this is added a well-pTinted descrip-
tion of the hi bits, usual location, and
manner Of growth Of the tree all form
ing complete history Of each kind Of
timber represented, and each in a form
readily understood. Court journal.

AN IMPORTANT LETTER.
The Successor Of Peter Signs an Interesting
Encyclcal Addressed to the World.

f. ,.,Ia /. +
The cable Announces that the Pope
has signed new encycllcal letter,
authorized translatiOns of which are
being made into English, French, Ger
man and italian. An ecclesiastical
dignitary has enabled the correspond
ent to communicate the nature and OBJ
ject of the Papal degree, which is OF the
utmost Importance to the Catholic
world, and are not yet known except to
a few personages in close relation with
the Holy Father. The document is in
two parts. One defines the rights OF
the church in all existing governments,
and sets forth the Pope's views on the
relations of Church and State. The
second part draws a narrowing picture
Of modern society, which is suffering
from having abandoned the principles OF
the Roman Catholic Church, and fails,
consequently, to provide for OF relieve
the working classes. These-hungry,
miserable and deceived have lost all
respectfor civil and religious authority,
and now seem on the verge of oyerturn-
ing the entire social fabric of Europe
in revolution and anarchy. The Pope
al first entitled it ''Eneyclical Liberal
ISM" but he has now changed it to
s'Ciyitatum' state government. This
document will be memorable act OF
Pope Leo XII.

a Shoshone Vendetta,

A deadly vendetta recently broke out
in the Shoshone tribe of Indians. A
desperate encounter took place day
or two since, in which one Indian was
shot dead and another fatally cut.
Some time ago one of the chieftains Of
the tribe suspected his wife of criminal
relations with young warrior of the
tribe. Investigation revealed the truth
of the report. and in his ire he shot and
killed his rivals favorite horse. A re-
prisal was at once entered, and the
chieftain's was also corpse. The out
ragged husband then gathered together
his personal adherents and went forth
for blood and vengeance. But the
wife's lover had also friends, and the
chieftain found himself opposed by an
equal force. The fight came off, with
above result. The authorities have
succeeded in quieting matters for the
present, but bitter blood has been
stirred up. The fight is not out, and
more blood will doubtless be shed.
The Shoshones are morally far above
the other tribes Of the Northwest with
their women. Chastity is hereditary,
and leWd Shoshone woman Is a rarity
indeed. When, however, . case of the
kind does occur it is sure to be added
to the annals ID letters Of blood. The
traditions Of the tribe show that almost
the only blood shed IN private qnarrels
have been from this cause.

Sir Thomas Grattan Esmonde.

The Dublin convention have selected
a man who is likely to do honor to the
cause in Sir Thomas GraJtan Esmonde.
He is descended on the one side from

is sufficient to rouse the enthusiasm OF
all Irishmen, and on the other from a
'98 martyr. An aristocrat and land.
lord, Sir Thomas Esmonde is i'll favor
OF doing away with the classes to which
he belongs, and from his fearless and
outspoken exposition OF his views at the
convention we have little doubt that he
is sincere in his declaration, and that
the mandate OF the people will lose
nothing by being committed to his care.
The other conventions so on apace, and
are characterized by the same splendid
spirit. Everywhere the selections may
be described by the American poet as OF
Men whom the lust of office does not fill;
Men whom the spoils of Office eannotbuy;
Men with opinions and with will;

RETURN OF a RUNAWAY.
A Buffalo Woman Surprises Her Relatives
After Twenty-Five Years Absence.

Miss Nella Miller, daughter of Mrs.
Richard Miller of Buffalo, ran away
from home twenty two years ago because
she thought her parents were too strict
with her. 1t was believed for many
years that she was dead, and her return
last week was great surprise to her
friends, who last heard of her soon after
her uncermonious departure, as the
wife of Sam Wetherill, the actor. The
couple lived happily together until Mr..
Wetherill's death, which occurred last
January.
Mrs. Wetherill became dissatisfied
with home and resolved to run away
and adopt the stage as a profession.
Her marriage followed soon after she
reached San Francisco. About three
years ago they joined a theatrical COM
pany bound for Australia, and then the
correspondence with home ceased. They

DEATH OF JOHN MCCULLOUGH.

John Mccullough, the actor, died at
his residence in Philadelphia, on Sun
day, November s, at five minutes past
O'Clock. Mr.. McCullough's death, al
though not entirely unexpected, occur
red quite suddenly, andwas due, as DR..
Hugo Engel says, to an affection OF the
brain caused by blood poisoning. DR..
Engel asserts that McC Cullough was not
insane and thatit was mistake to have
placed him in the Bloomington Insane
Asylum where he was confined num-
Der of weeks. His failing mental pow
ers were first noticed I'M the early part
of January, 1884, and in April of that
year he made lamentable failure of
"Othello'' in Washington. After that
his ailment manifested itself at various
times in the loss of memory, the prompt

he has grown worse until death, occa-

times his condition was considered
hopeless by his friends.
Heswas brought to Philadelphia Octo-
Der Is, just two weeks before his death
and taken to the residence of his fam

recognized no one, not even his wife
OF his two sons, and had no control OF
his muscles, except a little over those OF
his right arm. He regained the use OF

able to raise himself to a sitting posi-

Waste Paper that Isn't Waited.

Waste Paper that Isn't Waited y
Down in the hls1ment Of the United

in which about dozen girls sit and

cumulated from the work Of the $500
clerks in the rooms above. All of the
waste paper OF the department. is trans
ferred to their room by the sweepers at
the close of the each day. Then the
girls go over it carefully piece by piece
and they frequently make very yalll1
able discoveries. Not long ago $40, COO
worth of bonds were found id a waste
paper basket in the Office Of the Comp
troller Of the currency, and there was q
great howl about it at the time, but in
the end nobody was punished for the
gross carelessness. But such large
sums as this seldom find their way into
the sorting room. The principal dis
coyeries are peDholders and stationery
which have been accidentally dropped
into the waste basket. Sometimes a
valuable document disappears in an ln-
accountable manner from the files of

A MAN FOR OVER FIFTEEN YEARS
Strange Experience Of Woman who
Kept Grocery in Kansas City.

~ASPS - SASSSAJ - A@-ssAAAeS ~
1t transpires that Frank Gray, real
estate dealer and grocer who formerly
kept a saloon here and has been known
to the business fraternity for two years,
is a woman. 1t is alleged that she has
masqueraded as a man for fifteen years.
Her experience has been varied and
unique. When she ran saloon and
dressed in male attire she drank at the
bar with nearly all the men about town
and heard them gossip about woman
and affairs in general which do not al
ways reach feminine ears. Her voice
was SO masculine that no one suspected
her. On one occasion she very nearly
got into trouble because of a fancy she
took to married woman. l.. w. Fos-
ter, piano tuner, and his wife boarded
at the same house with Gray, as the
feminine saloon keeper was called, and
Foster became insanely jealous overthe
attentions which Gray paid to Mrs.
Foster. He went SO far as to write his
wife's father at Chicago about the scan
dal and threatened to get divorce.
Gray became involved in lawsuit,
however. and the startling discovery
was made that Gray was woman
named Mary B. Walcott. This reyelar
ton was followed by others, and it is
finally learned that Mrs. Walcott had a
married daughter living in this city.
The discovery is said to have been
made by a private detective who
received a pointer from her son-in-
law. Under the name of Gray she ran
a grocery for some time at the corner Of
Seventh and Wyandotte streets. She
then began to speculate in real estate
and showed good judgment and acquir
ed much money. During her residence
here she made frequent visits to Col
umbus, Ohio, and then always wore
clothing becoming her sex. By con-.
