The railway car in which the remains Of
President Lincoln were conveyed from
Washington to Springfield, ILL.,, is now in
use on the MarysYille and Blue Valley

Result Of the Marital Troubles of Gen
cral and Mrs. Carroll.
There has been another chapter added
TO the already chcckcrcd matrimonial
career Of General S. S. Carroll a re-.
tired major-gcnoral of the army. Mrs.
Helen NJ Carroll, the wife of General
Carroll obtained divorce from him
in April 1885, as she stated, to escape
his cruel treatment. Soon after her
fli,nds were ostonshed to learn that
she was again living with him.
In her bill for divorce, filed to-day,
she alleges that she remarked General
Carroll at his urgent request and on
his solemn promise to stop drinking.
lie kept this promise for nearly twelve
months, she says, when he fell into the
company of bad men and women and
began TO drink again and to abuse her
and call her vile names. lie also re.
fused TO furnish her with the comforts
or even the neccssaries of life She
states that he boasts that the courts
here do not interfere with him, rs he
is maj general in the army, and
that he will treat her as he chooses.
She alleges that on December 25,
1885, he committed adultery with one
Madeline Sinclair, and that he spent
large sums of money buying wine for
this woman and two other alleged dis.
reputable women, and that he has been
guilty of acts of inhdclity with other
alleged lewd and abandoned women.
She now prays the court to grant her a
second divorce from her husband, the
custody of their child, and that he be
restrained from speaking 10 or inter.
fcring with her during the pcudency of
the suit. She also asks that he be or.
dercd TO pay $500 per month into the
registry of the court uuul the time Of
the final decree of the court, besides a

At its sitting held recently the
Academy Of Fine Arts made amends for
an act Of bad taste into which il had been
led Al one Of its previous meetings. To
III the place OF NJ. Emile Perrin as an
honorary member It elected Baron
%Alphonse de Rothschild, the present head
NJ the great banking house. lie had
once before applied for admission and
lad not been elected, apparently with
the object Of proving that the Academy
81 Fine Arts could show its indepen-
doncc, wen with regard to the greatest
financial power OF our time. II such was
rally the motive OF its refusal the calcu-
lltion was erroneous. True independence
would have been shown in doing Justice,
even to n millionaire banker, without
giving ground for a suspicion OF par
TALLY toward him.
The fact Is that Baron de Rothschild
has "A hundred times over n right to be-
bong to an assembly OF which the fore
most duty Is TO include all eminent
%trtists, n the second to introduce
iuto its ranks those who encourage them.
On the latter ground the Rothschild
family have long had u ground to be re-
presented. They have not only extended
their sympathy and encouragement to
the arts; they n placed their great
fortunes moro than once Mt the
service OF artists in needed cir
cumstanccs. Il is known that
Hhcn an extraordinary good work is
Ia the markets the Ro%thschilds will
give, in the absence Of a purchaser, a
considerable price for II, and this, OF
course, has the effect OF keeping up the
the value OF such property. But indie
pendently Of this, Baron Alphonse de
Rothschild will bring to the academy
high position and n cultivated mind. He
raises its reputation in the eyes Of the
public by showing thRt talent can do
honor to wealth in admitting it to n
place at its side. On all these grounds
the academy should have carried out the
election on the first occasion. But better
late than never. Paris Cor. London

This is an old proverb, another version
of which is: "He that hath too many
irons in the fire, some of them will
burn" This morsel of metaphorical
wisdom, evidently the work of a black
smith, is, Of course, intended as a warn
ing against undertaking too much, and,
at first sight, sounds like a prudential
maxim, well adapted to secure eff
cheney and singleness of aim on the part
of all workers. But, more closely con
sidered, the precept shows itself for
what it really is, a piece of narrow
minded, petty prudence, adapted only
for the guidance of incapables and
fools.
The fact is, nobody who is good for
for anything needs any such cowardly
caution about having "too many irons
in the fire. Your active, efficient
characters, they who do the largest
share of work in the world, are the men
who want and will have a great many
irons in the fire." Shovel, poker,
tongs and all, these mastery workmen
keep them always hot and always busy.
The rapidity of their daily accomplish
ment is only equalled by its variety.
Both their combinations and their
execution are such as perplex and
startle little minds, and lead them to re-
peat in full chatter much such petty
maxims as the one now under considera-
ton. 1t is by such men that human
progress is advanced, inventions and
discoveries are made, fortunes are won,
and all valuable improvements and re-
forms are achieved.-Boston Budget.

The Pellew Islanders have but n vague
idea Of future State, for they believe
that only those men who have been
chiefs will be admitted to II. Every
tribe has its own god, 10 whom all ques-
ions Of moment are referred, the medium
Of communication in nearly every case
being n woman known as "KRleeth, - or
Gods wife. These women, by n rude sort
Of vcntriloquism, manage to deceive the
people and have n great deal OF influence
In their councils.

Gus, and Foreigners can rarely procure
specimens Of II. II consists Of beads OF
various descriptions, aud Of which no ac-
count AS to their manufacture, nor Of tho
origin Of the material of which they are
composed, can be found, aud the only
way in which the natives nccoun for
them is that they came from the heavens.
The most probable conjecture Is thn
they were brought by the Arabs, who are
supposed To have traded with the
