An Affecting Scene.

MADISON, Wis, May 21.-In the mu
nicipal court Mrs. Rebecca Marraot of
Baraboo, and Mrs. Margaret NJ. Cooley of
Mitchell, OAK, sisters, pleaded guilty to
the charge of perjury. They were sentenced
to two years in prison. Each woman, when
sentenced, had an infant in her arms.
Kneeling at the feet of the judge, they
piteously pleaded for mercy ''for their
babies sake" Judge Bailey, with tears i'll
his eyes, said the law was memorable, but he
would fix the lowest penalty prescribed.
The women then prayed and SObbed and
uttered terrible shriekS as they were finally
removed by the officers. They said that a
man named Kirby had threatened their lives
If they did not swear as they did, and that
they had for years lived in mortal terror OF
him. Both are respectable women Of good
local repute.
THEIR BABIES ACCOMPANY THEM
to the penitentiary. An effort will be made
to secure executive pardon in their case.
These women are sisters of the wife of
James Kirby, alias SimmOndS, well known
crackSman, who. with a man named Ed
wards, was last November sentenced to
states prison in Wisconsin for five years for
burglary i'll Madison. At the trial of Kirby
these women swore that they were in Bara-
boo at Mrs. MarraOt'S home, the 10Th of
July last, the night of the burglary, and
that Kirby was also there. They also said
that that night Mrs. Marraot gave birth to a
child. The attempt to prove an alibi was
unavailing, however, and Kirby was found
guilty after a most exciting trial. The
women were then arrested for perjury in
the case. 1t was proven that the child was
born May 6, and that Kirby was not present
even at that time.

RELIGIOUS People Arrested.

Special to the Globe.
BosToN, May GA strange spectacle
was presented in the Central municipal
court of this city this afternoon when Rev.
DR.. A. j. Gordon pastor OF the Clarendon
street Baptist church; Rev. NJ. p. Deming,
central secretary of the Y. M. G. A.; II.
L. Hastings, Abijah Hall and several other
persons were arraigned Oh the charge of
disturbing the peace and violating the city
ordinances. by holding religious services on
the Boston common. Several other per-
sons. including members of the Salvation
army, were complained OF for some
Offense, and large number of
members of the Salvation army We're
in attendance to witness the proceedings
and learn how the cases were disposed of.
The complaint was based on city ordi-
nance, which provides that no person SHALL
without permission, deliver a sermon, adj
dress or lecture on the common or other
public grounds, and after the defendants
had been briefly examined, they were fined
$40 each and entered. appeals. There was
no question but that the meetings
were orderly and quiet nor are theyanything
novel; but the police determined to test the
validity OF the ordinance, and accordingly
brought the complaints without malice.
There is much Indignation over the affair,
as everything else is permitted on the sacred
Enclosure, and the defendants propose to
carry the question to the supreme court, if
necessary, to sustain their right to preach
in the inclOsure.

Bankers Taken In

CHICAGO, May 21.-An Englishman, 81.
S. Strong. obtained 1000 from bank in
this city by passing forged letters of credit.
He belonged to a gang Of forgers who have
previously operated in this country and
Canada. The victims of Strong's forgery in
this city are the officers and shareholders Of
the Canadian Bank of Commerce. The
plan Of operations seems to be the forgery
of number of circular letters of credit,
purporting to have been issued by some
well-known banking institution of Great
Britain. The amount of each letter is US
ually $50 or $3.50. They are operated by
members of the gang simultaneously, or
nearly so, i'll the Canadian and American
cities. In the case of Strong, it appears he
presented himself Yesterday at the Canadian
Bank of Commerce, in this city, presenting
letters of credit of the National Bank of
Scotland, Glasgow. The signatures appeared
to be all right and the cash was promptly
paid over the counter. He spoke little and
conducted himself to the mind of the bank
cashier like an ordinary English gentleman
of fortune on pleasure or business.

Not the Man They Took Him For.
From the Rochester Democrat.

From the Rochester Democrat.
Until few years ago there were two
brothers living in this city who resembled
each other so closely that it was almost i'm
possible to distinguish one from the other,
the identity extending to the voice, express
sion of the face and even the movement in
walking. One of the brothers. who is a
travelling agent for shoe firm here, boards
at well-known hotel in the city, while the
other has been living east. About two
weeks ago the Rochester. brother left the
city, stating that he expected to be gone
some months, but last week, to all appear
anceS, returned to the hotel Another drum
mel. who was well acquainted with the shoe
man, walked up with a ''Hullo, old boy,
what brought you back so sOOn?" slapped
him on the back. The newcomer quickly
turned, and, with an expression of aStonish-
ment on his face, paralyzed the drummer
by saying, you're mistaken iIbthe man,
sir" and walked off. Soon another gentle
man came up and spoke to him, but was
not recognized. Then it began to be whis-
pered around that the Rochester man, who
is very fond of joke, was making game of
them, and every one, even to the slightest
acquaintance of his, was induced to stop
and shake hands with the apparent stranger,
even employees at the hotel laughing at him
when he asked where the dining-roon was.
This state of affairs has been going on day
after day, and few will be aware that they
have been speaking to an entire stranger
until they read this article. The fact is,
that it is the Rochester mans brother who
has been at the hotel. Singular Us it may
seem, the brother by accident came to the
city on business and stopped at the same
hotel. Their similar appearance has caused
the confusion, and undoubtedly some apol-
ogy will be offered to-day. The Rochester
man is still out west, entirely ignorant of
the whole affair

Advice to Young Married People.

The Culver for June.
''Drive gently over the stonesr This
piece of advice, which is frequently given
to inexperienced whips, may be respectfully
suggested to the newly married. There are
stony places on the road to happiness which.
if not carefully driven over may upset the
domestic coach. The first rock ahead. which
should be marked dangerous" is the first
year of married life. Here, especially, it is
the first step that costs; as a rule the first
year either mars or makes marriage. Dur
ing this period errors may be committed
which will cast a shadow over every year
that follows.
On awakening suddenly from sleep we
feel put out and rather cross. May not the
young husband and wife experience feelings
not entirely different when they awake to
reality from the dreams of courtShip and the
fascination of the honeymoon? Everything
must once more be contemplated after the
ordinary manner of the world, once moro
with subdued feelings spoken of, considered
and settled. For the first time husband and
wife see each other as they actually are.
Each brings certain peculiarlties into the
married state to which the other has to grow
accustomed. They have now to live no
longer for themselves, but for each other,
dliIi tilC 10 llOU III
In all things Indifferent the husband and
wife must be willing to yield, however new
it may be to them; however different from
what they themselves thought. Self must
be sacrificed in order thereby to gain the
help of another beloved existence. A lady
once asked DR.. johnson how in his diction-
airy he came to define pastern the knee of
horse. He Immediately answered: ''Ignor-
ance madam, pure ignorance" This is the
simple explanation of many an accident
that takes place at the commencement of the
matrimonial journey. The young couple
have not yet learned the dangerous places
of the road, and, as a consequence, they
drive carelessly over them.

Terrible Tracet4.

P1TTsBURe, May 21.-Shortiy before
this afternoon double tragedy was en-
acted at No. Sc Western avenue, this city,
in which Franz Kaslind, Bohemian IS
years of age, killed a three-year-old
girl, daughter of a man named Lipman, with
whom he boarded, and then fired two shots
into his own heart, causing instant DEATH
He also shot at the girls mother.
There is no motive for the deed,
as the most pleasant relations existed
between Kaslind and the members
Of the family. 1t is the theory that he shot
the girl accidentally and being crazed with
horror shot at the mother. The parents do
not hold this view and when the father
came into tie house he jumped upon the
dead body of the man who had killed his
child and in his rage heaped fearful impre-
cations upon him.

case 5he latter holding that the conviction
of the men was adequate and complete, and
the former that it was not, in that the
prosecution was based on the filing
of a criminal information against
them by the United States district attorney,
while their otfense partook of an infamous
crime in the meaning of the United States
statutes and that criminal information was
not adequate, but that the accused should
have been regularly indicted by the grand

ted States supreme court. The prisoners

from the hall were worked as ShTewdly as
