made no demonstration in his honor. The
President and Mr.. BisseI!, Mr. Cleveland's old
partner at once entered carriage and were
rapidly driven to Mr. Bisseils residence on
Franklin street.
Daring the past few days speculation has
been rife 10 whether Mr. Cleveland would

fainting spells; had he conversed with the Ta-
bers about performing an improper operations;
had never prescribed pepsine pills for Mrs. Ia
Der. The operation performed was a necessary
one, for which no extraordinary fee was charged.
Witness made only the ordinary charge of SD
apiece for his examinations. AS far as wit
ness had seen, Taber was kind to his WIFE,
John Pendergast cOntradicted the testimony of
Mr.. Ruffin that Taber had at Pendergast's house
explained to Ruiiin the relative positions in
which DOwnes and Mrs. Taber were found upon
the bed. Officer Warren testified that the skirt
produced at the trial and which reached to Mrs.
1abers boots was not the one she wore when

From The Boston Herald


Several years ago there went from Boston a
young man, gifted with fine baritone voice

young American, Mr.. Julius Perkins, was not
only possessed of a good voice, but was a man of
culture and a very handsome man. Hard work
brought its reward and Mr.. Perkins debut be-
fore "a critical audience at Munich was alto
gether successful and from that time on his ca
reer upward. i: was while singing In Lon
don that he was thrown professionally into the
society of Marie Roze, then young and beautiful
and at the zenith OF her fame. The old story
The petted American soon found himself madly
III love with the charming Marie. His wooing
like his singing, WAS crowned with success and
the two artists were married. They were very
happy for a brief honey mOon, but at the end OF
n few weeks the young bride was left q widow.
MIR. Perkins took severe cold while sleeping
IN a damp, lilly aired room at Birmingham and
after an Illness of only few days died. Poor
Marie was inconsoilbie tor time. but her art
was her comforter, and in the applause Of her
audience she found some consolation in her
hours of Loneliness and grief. She is now u sec
end time a happy wife.

tfshoSEo uI5 ATfENT1ON ON YOU Nc LADIES
AND PAYS THE PENALTY.
A dispatch from Dushore. Pa, dated Sunday.
says: Game is unusually abundant here this
year. Hardly a week passes that deer does
not dash through the town, pursued by the hum
tiers. Bears abound ON the mountains and
they are becoming holder by degrees, as many
of them are venturing close to town. Several
ladies, while hunting autumn leaves Yesterday
narrowly escaped death. They were less than
a mile from town when they discovered a large
black bear coming toward them. The girls
made a dash for home, closely followed by
brtlin. At the outskirts of the town the bear
concluded that he was too near civilization and
Strolled back To the mountains. The ladies hur-
RED home, told their story under great excite
ment, and then tainted. Michael Dayton. John
weaver and Samuel Willsie, three veteran
hunters of DushOre heard the story and started
out to Stay the bear, in which they succeeded,
returning to town with his bearship, which was
found 10 weigh $50 pounds.

A Queer Russian Sect.



"The Nest for Cody People is the title of a
Russian religious sect which has come into ex-
istenee during the last fifteen years. It's head
quarters appear to be at the historic fortress
town of Bender, in the neighbOrihg government
Of Bessarabsa, and its strange name is due to
the fact that its members-ali of the peasant
cfaSs-dig grave in the floor (which is OF dried
earth} OF their habitatiOns OF else ia their gar
de rs. and lie therein until overcome by hunger
In order, as they say, 10 commune with God
confess Ia Him their sins, and examine their
past life. To enable them the better 20 do this
the grave is covered with wooden box-like lid
Or canopy, having door in il for ingress and
egress: so that they lie in the grave as in a cof-
nm, and were il not for small apertures in the
top part Of ii they would run the risk of being
8ut9cated- When the grave or nest Is in the
garden IL is thickly surrounded with bushes for
the sake OF greater privacy and guarded by a
savage watch dog TO preveat curious or imper-
hneut people going near il. These sectarians
pretend that IN their ecstatic moments and
when suffering extreme hunger they see saints
and devils, and some OF them are subject to
ha4iucinations. Another popularity of the
members OF this sect is thai they hold as little
conversation az possible with other people, or
III fact, with each other; that the kind of life
which they endeavor 10 lead is akin to that OF
uncIoistered monks.

New Feminine style In Gait.

Have you noticed the latest idea with the

shoe dealer yesterday.
"No. What is it?' asked reporter.
a new style of walking: don't you see? The
real fashionable young lady doesn't dawdle
along now as if she was going 20 have a tooth
pulled. Instead OF that she takes quick springy

II she enjoyed walking, and was running over
with animal spirits and good health. That is
The Idea they wish TO carry out. Summer is
over, and every young lady is supposed to have
been either IN the country or at the sea shore
and come back full OF vigor. II isn't the proper
thing at all now tor young lady to- be tired
She may be slightly fatigued. but tired is too

health. Al least il will bring outdoor exercise.
