A Demand for Women.

Chicago Mail.
The demand for women in the North
west is only exceeded by the demand for
rain. Out in Wagon Wheel, Idaho, re-
Gently, a couple of old maids were called to
attend dying brother. The brother died,
but before the girls could get away the
whole male population was after them, in
Guiding the mayor, justice of the peace and
other notableS. Excitement ran high and
bets were SIX to one on the mayor, Ell al
In six days after their arrival the battle
was over and the girls both engaged. The
mayor had been cut out by asSfrapping
young miner of 80. The weddings were
set and the mother sent for in order that
proper eclat might be given. The mother
arrived in due season, and at once sailed
into the girls for their disrespect of their
late brother and their immoderate
haste. She declared the marriage off, and
announced her intention of taking her
daughters home with her. In despair a
mass meeting was called, and the mayor
was appointed a committee TO wait on the
mother and persuade her to reconsider the
former motion. Like all good mayors,
Chicago's included. this gentleman waited
upon the irate mother. He called her at
tention the great need OF Wagon Wheel,
and In the name of patriotism implored her
| not to intiict such crushing blow on the
hopes of the town. The mother was OBJ
durate, and declared that she would not
depart without her daughters. On this hint
the mayor spoke. He at once proposed a
compromise. The mother need not depart
at all. She was fair, fat and 80 odd. So
was he. They would pool their issues.
And so they did. The three women are
now connecting excuses by which all their
belated female friends and relatives East
can be brought to Wagon Wheel.

defined cases where it was apparent that
coat sleeves had been rubbed against these
boxes, and five cases where somebody had
evidently leaned against the boxes. These
facts are significant when taken in connec-
ton with the well-established fact that six
out of every ten men who place their hands
in fresh paint become more or less profane.
1t will readily be seen that on this basis
these ten boxes are the direct cause of 90 2.5
cases of profanity, making no allowance
for anything but actual cases of soiling the
hands. Allowing that one-half of those
who rub their coats against paint emit pro-
family, and from these ten boxes come ~
more cases, which added to the above, gives
1863 cases of profanity. SSH further, car
rying the compilation, and allowing that of
every five men who lean against fresh paint
two= will use profanity, an increase of two,
or a total of 1919 cases of profanity have
come from these boxes. 1t is not desirable
at this time to moraliZe, but in this Western
country, where all the higher elements of
civilization have only of late years had full
sway. such things as the painting of
mail boxes and all the evils that follow in
their wake are worthy the consideration of
all best citizens.
*This is conceded to be low estimate, but au-
thorities say that owing to the fact that many of
these cases not discovered at the time, the
tendency to profanity is somewhat lessened.

About Anna Cora MoHvatt.

bOSIOn courier.
Miss Anna Cora Mowatt- afterwards
Mrs. Ritchie-had many warm friends and
admirers in this country. some of whom
have labored under wrong impression
concerning her marriedlife as Mrs Richie.
An intimate friend OF the lady told us that
the separation of the couple was one en-
forced by circumstances. Mr.. Richie, &C
tive i'll our civil war, was seriously
wounded; but after time. under the care
full nursing, of his wife, he recovered his
health, but was crippled for life. Mrs.
Richie was ordered abroad for her health.
but was such victim to seasicknesS that it
would have endangered her life to recross
the ocean. Her husband was unable to join
her, and thus they lived apart for number
of years of their lives. They correspond
regularly, and Mr.. Ritchie's letters were
invariably addressed: My dearest Anna, :"
or, "My darling wife, while her replies
were none the less affectionate.

The Masculine Comtesse de pari.

The Masculine C0mtesse de Paris,
Modern Society.
The Comtesse de Paris is to her husband
what steam is to the locomotive He would
be inert without her. She is woman of
masculine habits. although devoid of much
intellectual capacity. Notwithstanding her
mannlSh ways, she has been a mother eight
times, and has six living children. Having
been brought up in Spain in the midst of
the intrigues her father, the Due de Mont
pensier, fonented against Isabella when
she was queen. she is ready for anything in
the way of political plot and
has partiality for the pronuncia-
mento. Her tastes are equestrian
and sylvan. She is fond of hunting.
shooting. and could drive a fourth hand as
cleverly as any member of the Coaching
club. Early to bed and early to rise is her
/ way. Her nose is long and hooked, and
dips at the end. The Graces and she are
utter strangers. Her voice is strong, and
the habit of speaking to deaf relations has
robbed it of all musc-unless when she
sings. 1t is then a fine meZZo-soprano.
She is masterful in the direction of her
household, and shows the family passion
for saving money. The marriage of her
brother Antonio to the Infanta Eulalia is
said to have been cause of disappoint-
ment to her. Had he died unmarried, or
without issue, before his father, she would
have been the sole heiress of the Due de
Montpensier, who is, as the world knows.
enormously rich.

The Deserted Room.

From the Baltimore Herald
The Garfield chamber in the White house
still remains unopened, and has never been
tenanted since it was vacated by the
wounded president in 1881. 1t is said that
President Arthur had a horror of the place,
and that that the present occupant of the
White house is equally loath to break the
sombre silence of the apartment This
course is natural, but it is scarcely wise.
Gen. Garfield did not die in the room. so
there is scarcely even ghostly presence to
forbid the removal of the close curtains and
the sealing up of the apartment as a
haunted chamber. There is not too much
space in the White house. and no desecra-
ton would be implied in the restoration of
the chamber to a condition of occupancy
and usefulness.

DRY AND DUSTY TIME.

Unusual Dryness Prevalent in the
City.-A Nuisance to HOusekeepers
and Humanity i'm General.
The extreme hot weather of yesterday
and the day before only emphasized the
long drouth by increasing the desire for rain.
Not drop of rain has fallen in August
and during the month of July the fall was
only an inch and a half, the lightest rain
fall in any July since 1877, when 1t was
only half an inch. Last year SIX inches Oh
rain fell in July. The effects of the drouth
in the country have been reported from
time to time as being injurious to crops, and
harvesting was brought on earlier by reason
of it, The city shows the severe effects OF
drouth in parched lawns and streets COW
cred with inches of dust. A few OF the
lawns have been regularly sprinkled
and the others show decidedly
dried up appearance and are los
ing their greenness. Those streets
where no sprinkling is OEattemped
are simply intolerable, the dust lying sew
eral inches deep on their surfaces and
thick coat ON every surrounding object,
robbing the trees, grass and flowers OF all
their beauty. This dust is especially a
bane to housekeeperS and compelS the clos
inc of windows and blinds, Or spoiled car
pet and furniture, and there is little com
fort in a closed house in the summer, and
especially on hot days. Only frequent and
copious watering of flower beds has pre-
served the plants alive, and even then in
the dusty portions of the city a large pro-
portion of the flowers are ruined. The in
dication has been much similar all over the
Northwest, but for the past two days
storms have been in progress in Dakota and
the influence of them, according to the
signal officer, was likely to reach st. Paul
at any time. The storms seemed to origin
ate in Central and Northern Dakota, two
inches of rain having fallen at Huron Sat
urday night. and travelled Southeasterly.
After the oppressive heat of Saturday and
Sunday the change in the temperature last
evening was refreshing. The mercury
climbed to 80 yesterday. and was rs at 9
o'clock in the evening, but a cool breeze
was blowing at the latter hour, whereas the
wind during the day had felt like SIMEON.

Democracy of the Royal Family.

iUHUUu LGLC6r.
Taking it for granted that all the sons of
princes inherit the title ad infnitum, people
frequently express surprise that England is
not overrun with princes of the royal
family. This is altogether an erroneous
supposition. The grandchildren of the
younger sons of the sovereign have no
claim to the prefix of royal highness, and
in the following generation, with the ex-
ception of the eldest son, become mere
commoners. Thus the present Duke of
Cumberland. who is great-grandson of
George Ill, has no right to the title of
royal highness in England and his younger
son, who was born last year. is commoner
