Mum is the Word.

Good Housekeeping: have no re-
spect for the woman who runs around
her neighbours and friends talking
about her husbands shortcomings,
and the various points Of difference be-
tween him and herself. And have
great contempt for the man who is
given to airing his matrimonial griev-
ances abroad. No third party can
adjust the differences that nav exist
between q man and his wife. If he and
she can not settle their own. affairs.

nothing more destructive to the peace
and happiness OF q home than the
daily little chickering's and bits Of fault

and wives indulge. OF course there
are the t'blue Monday" sort of days.
when nothing goes right, and
q spirit Of evil seems to have

From Good Housekeeping
An old pac!or is generally somewhat
detached from the remainder of the
house, a hall dividing it from the sit
ting-room. The blinds and windows
are tightly shut and the dark shades
pulled down, and as you pause in the
doorway the atmosphere chills even
in midsummer, and the din, light
through which you see the ghostly folds
OF the lace curtains makes you feel
that you are entering solemn place.
Here you will find q Brussels carpet on
whose dark ground are strewn roses
and pinks modelled after those which
might have furnished fragrance to the
inhabitants Of Brobdignag. There are
a sofa and chairs of haircloth, which
have not yet acquired the indiyid-
uallty which even furniture gains from
being set in families, but just look as
little at home as they did in the rooms
OF the dealer in the neighboring city.
There is q table with marble top, re-,
Winding one of q gravestone, wherein
is q lamp with sparkling pendants,
set on dainty mat of shaded green,
and a few books placed at proper
angles.
On one of the walls is a. hair wreath,
"made by Emmeline." Opposite hangs
a portrait of a lady with a face which
reminds one OF Martha Washington.
Her plump throat is encircled by a.
string OF gold beads, which now are
treasured in a. bureau drawer OF the
spare chamber as a precious heirloom.
AS companion piece to this is the
portrait of a gaunt, stern-looking man,
who holds tuning-fork to the ear of
q ten-year old boy, in an outlandish
costume. Neither from the expression
or the position Of either can one de-
termine whether the elder is inclined
to amuse or inhict corporal punish
ment, but the family tradition explains
that the vision of childish innocencei is
an early picture of the master of the
house, that the elderly couple are his
parents, he being O. child of their old
age; that the worthy gentlemen was a
singing master OF much local repute;
and that this was a happy thought OF
the artist to suggest his favorite pur-
suits. The lines were evidently not
traced by a pupil OF Sir Joshua Rey-
nolds or Gilbert Stuart; the eyes are
never detected in following you about
the room; they are, nevertheless, very
interesting.
On another side is q group of half
dozen family photographs in round
gilt frames, and between the windows
g. long mirror with frame much too
massive for the low ceiling above it.
On the mantel are q pair of ancient
silver candlesticks, each holding a. pair
of wax candles. When the four used
to be lighted at once, the younger MEM
bers looked on with feelings akin to
those with which they now regard
presidential illumination. Besides
there are g. vase OF dried grasses, a
piece OF iron ore, a gift cup, and g.
basket made of sawed butternut
shells, heaped with wedding invations.

NOTORIOUS Sam STARR.
His Surrender 10 a Marshal Ar
ranged by His Wife.


CHICAGO, Oct. ga special from Fort
Smith, Ark, says Among the arrivals in
the city yesterday was the notorious Sam
Starr aud his wife, Belle Starr, accom-
panied by Deputy Marshal Hughes, to
whom Sam surrendered on last Sunday
night. Starr Immediately reported at the
United State court and was admitted TO
bail in the sum of $40, 900, his bondamen
being citizens of the Choctaw nation.
II will be remembered that Sam was
captured by the Indian police about -four
weeks ago and was wounded by them in
four places. Three weeks ago he escaped
from his guards, disabling one of them
at the time, and got to the woods with
neither hnt nor shirt on. Since that time
they have been hunting for him. During
this time Belle was here attending court.
Last Thursday she was acquitted, and on
Friday evening late left in company with
Deputy Hughes, the officer being assured
by her that Sam would surrender to him.
Saturday night they arrived at Canadian
river, SO miles from here, in the
vicinity Of Bellies home. After dark
boat, making her way into Youpger's
band under cover of darkness. All she
could learn was that Sam was in the
woods and that a number Of men were
in there hunting him and probably had
him surrounded. Sunday she proceeded
alone to one of his tayorite haunts in the
mountains and came upon him. In 0
short time the arrangements for the sur.
render were agreed upon and then Belle
went back after Hughes. Sam WAS tc
meet them at certain place. Hughes
went and Sam surrendered to him. Sun
day night they recrossed the Canadian
under cover of darkness to the Chnotav
side and made their way to this place by
circuitoua route.

From Every Evening Of Saturday.
To-day is the Hebrew Yom Kippur, or
day OF atonement. 1t began at sunset last
night and continues until sunset to-day.
Yesterday was known as Erev Yom Kppur.
On both these days all orthodox Hebrews
go to their synagogues where the forms
and ceremonies Of the days of ancient
Jerusalem are observed.
Yesterday the first services began In the
afternoon and the congregations prayed for
forgiveness for their sins OF the past year.
During this prayer they cry "Al chet," and
bending low touch their hearts in token Of
their sorrow. After the services the wor-
shippers return to their homes and par take
OF the soodeh mafsehes, or sweet dishes.
This is the last meal the orthodox Hebrew
eats until the three stars appears in the
skies tonight. After the meal the head of
TIC TIC family family cas s s!s children shcgt bin sna
hlesses them. He also exhorts them to
live upright and to confess their sins About
$50 p. m all again go to theirsynagogues to
the service OF Kol Nedrea.
The orthodox Hebrew removes his shoes
and puts on the tales and kittel, q sort of
shroud symbolical of death. In the fash
ionnble synagogues this is not done. The
people who wish then go to their homes,
although great many remain all night In
the synagogue.
Lub S6lNACth NO-otA1 btthh WIN NAO Sgltul-
haus, which consists In reading a portion
OF the law from the book OF Leviticus. The
marcer ne sehumans. or prayers for the
dead, will also be said. This will be fol-
lowed by an additional service in which
special mention will be made OF the cere-
monies at the time of the Temple
In Jerusalem. All the worshipers will
kneel four times In token of humilia-
tion. Another portion of the law will
then be read and the congregation will be
dismissed. The Murchah service will begin
at 8 p. M, and will last about an hour. The
nealah, or last service, will begin near sum
set. This is symbolic OF the closing of the
gates OF Jerusalem. The congregation Is
exhorted to call upon the Lord with force
before 1t is too late. The cornet is then
sounded denotlng that the Lord had disap-
peared. The service is closed by all bowling
and exclaiming, Next year in Jerusalem" !"
As this day Of atonement falls on tho
Hebrew Sabbath 1t will he more generally
observed than Is usual. The devout Hebrew
will remain indoors when not at the syna-
gogue, no shoes will be worn, no cutting or
drinking will bo indulRod In and no one
will be allowed to batho.

W. Penneil was killed. here by un extra fast
freight train, drawn by engine No. . at
about o'clock this evening. The train was
going north and was entering the station
slowly whom Mr.. psnnell was seen WALKING
between the tracks. When opposite Ulman's
boitling establishment, about so yards from
the end Of tho platform. he was observed to
stop. The greater part OF the train, which
was long one, had passed, and he yas

the last car between tho trucks. The train
was then only moving slowly, and was
stopped within q few ieet after passing over
Mr.. Pennel's mock, killing him instantly,

owing to the fact that the car that passed

CnEsTER, Oct, S.-The inquiry OF experts
into the books of the Water Works Com
pttny Of this city, shows the defalcation OF
Robert Anderson, the late superintendent,
TO be much latRer than at first supposed,
and Will III all probability exceed $4,000.
Anderson seems to have been given full
swinr by the directors aud to have con-
troilud every dollar coming tn or going out.
He appears TO have been the water works
company himself, and for this exclusive con-
Irol he kipdiy permitted the leading direc-
tors and some of his sureties to be practical
daaahGads, Many Of these, among our
leading cil;2ens, owe large back rents to the
company.
aItdoIson kept his accounts in most
negligent manner, and the books arc In o
complete tangle. To set at tho amounts
outstanding notice was served on those in
arrears FOR rent TO pay up or have their
supply cut on, which brought to the Office
g multitude Of persons who protest that
they paid, but have no receipts, and OF
which payment there Is no evidence on tho
| books. Tho whole matter is In inextricable
confusion, ana the order to shut or has
| been modified.
Anderson, who was one of tho leading
citizens and a shining light In the Madison
| Street n. d. Church, Is sick and confined to
| his home. At first much sympathy was felt
| for him, on his assertions that the deficit
1 was small and would DO made up, but as the
\ extent OF his peculations and the confusion
( they lead to are being discovered steps are
| belng taken to bring him before the prose-
cutting officers. The sureties OF Anderson

and ID. 4, Esrey OF the Powhatan mills.

There are also duties connected with the
