Betrayed by a Button.

From the st. Louis Republican,

pany, "was plan that was detected by the
merest chance in the Kellogg Hess opera COM

tone OF that organization A certain artist play
ing prominent roles was suspected by a member
OF the chorus with paying altogether too much at
tentiOn to the chOr1SterS wife, and the artist was
duly warned by his friends to keep close watch
on the movements OF the husband. One evening
as he was passing across the stage to his dressing
room. he CHANGED to hear one OF the wardrobe
women say to another that there were buttons or
all the soldier uniforms.
"NOw, as the husband was to be one OF file Of
soldiers whose DUTY it was to fire vOlley OF shots
at the artist as he made his escape I'D a rocky
pass, the absence OF the buttOns-little balls or
steeI-soon awakened suspicion in his mind Be-
fore the curtain went up on the act in which this
incident occurred, he went to the property man
and insisted on having the charges In the chOris-
ter's gun examined. The firearm was taken from
the husband's hands, and when the load was
drawn one OF the buttons was found rammed
down under wad. One button had been cut
from every uniform SO as to conceal the positive
proof that the missile came from the husbands
gun. Had that shot been fired and proved fatal
no evidence but the thtnnest Of circumstantial tes
timony could have connected the true murderer
with the tragedy"

A Specific Against Hunger.

Paris Dispatch to the London Times.
Talking about fasting men, the following recfpe.
according to the philosopher Epimenides, who
lived for fifty years in a cavern with no apparent
means of sustenance is a specific against hunger:
Cooked squis, or else onions to be finely chopped
up and mixed up with fifth part OF oily grain
sesamu1ns and a fifteenth part OF poppy heads.
Thls compound TO be ground up together with
some honey and shaped into balls OF about the
size OF large olive, which is about equal to that
OF small walnut. People cannot starve ii they
eat one ball at about eight O'Clock and another at
about four. This discovery surely is worthy OF a
fair trial. 1t may be added in this connection
that Paris comic paper learns that the govern
ment, In view OF its financial straits instead of as
usual giving a sum OF money on New Years day
to small officials, clerks and menialS will present
them as New Years gift several TASKS OF Succi'S

dispatch from Chester, Pa, to the Philadelphia
Press says: 1.-THE Baltimore and Ohios Media
branch is certainty. Many people thought that
the project had been abandoned, but the right-of-
way agents have been busy buying up land on the
route. The road, after leaving Media, win go
down Crum creek to Leiperville where It will cross
the maine line; then under the Philadelphia.
Wilmington and Baltimore, TO the south side OF
that line, which IL will follow TO place where
part OF the Keadlng chester branch has been late
~ constructed. 1t Will then take the line OF the
Reading 10 Front and Market streets The object
In securing route so far into town Is that the
Baltimore and Ohio people can bring seashOre eX-
cursions TO Market street pier, where they can
take the boat. 1t will also make a connection
between the new road and the PHILADELPHIA and
Reading Tor local freight. II the Reading had
allowed passengers 10 be carried over the part
leased from the Pennsylvania they would have
subjected the company TO forfeit OF 500, 600.
The new route obvfates this by running naraIIei

Concerning the Cleaning of Watches.
From the New York Sun.
"People spend great deal OF money needlessy
for having their watches cleaned" said Maiden
lane Jeweler the other day. "a gentleman living
in New Jersey called here one day last week and
said his watch had stopped unexpectedly and
then gone on again the same as usual. He wanted
1t cleaned as he feared that If 1t stopped again he
might lose train. Most jewelers. would have
taken the watch, cleaned it and charged him So or
q Tor the work. The proper thing to do II watch
acts In that way Is TO take note of the hour min
can see just where the dirt that has stopped the
works lies and can remove it by fastening down
the handspring and taking of the balance wheel.
Otherwise he would have to clean ali the works
not knowing which particular part needed clean
Ing. told my customer this and he had only
tribe to pay for having his watch put in order
II the watch had really needed cleaning all over il
Is not likely that 1t would have gone on again after
stopping"

BILL IN SOUTH CAROLINA DIRECTED AGAINST THE
ORDER.
A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from
Columbia, s. c., December II, says: The action Of
some OF the organizers OF the Knights OF Labor in
this state in enrolling the colored people in the
order has caused much bitter feeling against the
order by the farmers. Some OF the state papers
are denOnnc1ng the movement In the strongest
terms. Mr.. W. p. Russell, state organizer of the
Knights OF Labor, In answering newspapers COM
ments Is bitter. He says: sIn your ignorance you
American citizens, and that the labOrers in the
rural districts OF South Carolina are to be used as
the lazy ntolerant men In these districts choose to
dlctate tnat they are not freemen, and shall work
for what you may choose to allow them.'
Some papers advise the farmers to "spotn all
negro Knights OF Labor, and to run them from the
neighbOrhOod. They advised that the legislature
should appropriate money for the maintenance OF

Mario.

The sky is all December gray
The forest roads the dark mas shut,
And since have lost my way,
Sit shivering in PEASANTS hut.
A dearthful prospect meets the eye
Bare walls of clay, no cushioned seat;
OF any food q scant supply,
A shy mouse whisking round my feet.
The door, quick-opened brings q gust
W Icy air, like rapier blue;
The plague We call existence must
Be faced another hour or two.
But. hist! what enters by the door,
And throwing dusky wraps aside,
Steps softly Oh the earthen floor,
And stirs the fire that else had died?
A girl, a peasant, but the prize
From natures careless lottery thrown,
Brown hair, warm lips, and soft blue eyes,
woman blossom newly blown.
Prestissimo! the walls are bright,
No sky trxnscends these rafters old:
Dead elements OF life ignite:
no more shiver with the cold.
