GENTLEMEN BURGLARS KILLED.
Tennessee Merchant and an Armed
Crowd Pursue Three Cracksmen.
[Chattanooga telegram.l


A terrible tragedy occurred at Knoxville

which two daring safe robbers were killed
by a pursuing posse. Last Friday night
three burglars broke into the store of j. NJ.
Handy, merchant at Glenmary, and at

were several thousand dollars. They were
detected by the merchant, who at once
opened fire on them. They returned the

twenty-five shots were exchanged, but no
)ne was wounded.
The burglars fed ,and no trace of them
vas found until this morning, when Handy
earned that the robbers were encamped on
he Emory River. He enlisted posse and
went in pursuit of the desperadoes. They
we're found concealed among some cross
les, and were ordered to surrender. Two

watches. No clew to their identity could be
obtained.

Snnhhing Princes.

The shabby way in which foreign
princes, other than Teutons who visit
England, are treated has long been q
matter of public scandal. The nation
pays for any number of palaces, several
of which-notably Buckingham Palace
are never used, and vet when a dis
tinguished foreign visitor arrives in
London, it is ten to one that he is
lodged in a hotel and has to pay his
own bill. A recent noted foreign Wis
itor in England was Japanese prince,
who rejoices in the name of Fouschima-
bring. This dignitary ranks next to
the Mikado himself; but scarcely any
notice was taken of him. He is little
fellow, about twenty years of age, and
dresses in the conventional frock coat
and stove-pipe hat of Europe. About
two years ago, another distinguished
Jap, Prince Arissugawa, visited Lon
don. He was sent to hotel and left to
pay his bill. One day he went to
Windsor to pay his respects to the
Queen. All he got in the way OF travel
ing accommodation was reserved COM
partment in an ordinary failway car
riage, and next daya representative of
the Great Western Railway Company
called to remind the Prince that he had
not paid his fare. This is fair example
of the shabby manner in which foreign
ers of distinction are often treated in
the wealthiest city of the world

Wooden Undertaking.

Among the many means by which we
seek to guard ourselves fir IN the effects
OF chill there is one which hardly, even
now, receives sufficient attention, the
use OF woolen t1nderclothing, except in
the very hottest weather. The majority
OF persons of the male sex do, indeed,
show their appreciation of its whole
some qualitiesj but there remains
considerable moiety of these, and far
greater number of women and children,
who prefer an undersuit of smooth but
relatively meager linen. Yet the supe-
rior advantages of wearing wool next
the skin are easily apparent. They do
not depend merely ON its greater
warmth and closeness OF application.
1t is further capable, according to its
texture and in virtue of its composition,
OF better adaptation, in respect of tenn
perature, TO the needs of var ous eli
mates Snd the changes of seasons than
any other dress material. Moreover,
it exhibits d. special. faculty for abaorp-.
| ton ana distriDlOing fn0lsture.~ 1t is
this property especially which renders
it the natural next covering of the con.
stantly perspiring skin. Ii one be en-
gagged, for example, in active exercise
| of limb, linen fabric will absorb what
products of transudation it can I II it is
wet, but will leave much moisture upon
the clammy service; whereas flannel,
from its more spongy nature, will rest
upon skin which it has nearly dried
and be but damp itself. 1t is obvious,
then, that in the event of an after chill,
and this occurs in summer as in winter,
the body is, in the latter case, most
favorably disposed to resist it. Flannel
is not less cleanly than linen, though it
may appear less white; and if the wear
er bathe daily, it is surprising how long
it will retain its purity. The skin irri-
tation to which it sonnet mes gives rise
is usually associated with coarseness of
quality or freshness of manufacture,
and is, with nearly all who have expe-
rienced it, merely transient condition.
Women, as well as men, we repeat, but
ub0vo oil ohi1dron and tho eSod, who
are alike particularly apt to take cold,
should certainly adopt a woolen mate
rial for their customary undergarment.
1t is easily possible to adjust the tex
ture to the season, so that it shall be
warm enough in winter and not too
warm in summer. Herald of Health.

or Interest TO Parents.

A decision of much interest to parents IN
Michigan has been rendered by Judge Jen-
hison of the Wayne Circuit Court. In 1884
Edna H. Blackmer, having lost all his
property and being unable to care for his
motherless child, Maggie May Blackmer, 2
years old, went into the Probate Court at
Cheboygan and consented to her adoption
by William and Margaret Burns. The Burns
people moved TO Detroit, and Mr.. Blackmer
afterward learned that they were keeping
a saloon and house of general bad reputa-
ton on Woodbridge street in that city.
He demanded that the child should
be given back to him. The Burns people
refused. Mr.. Blackmer then applied TO the
Wayne Circuit Court for a writ of habeas
corpus, and Judge Jennison has decided
that writ Of habeas corpus would not lie
to take child away from its natural par
ents in the absence of some special statute;
that after child has been adopted her new
parents become in all legal respects her ac-
tual parents, and the actual parents have no
more rights in regard to the custody and
care of the child than any outsider. Courts
of equity, however, can interfere in all cases,
whether the child has been adopted or not.

He Saw the Sign.

1t was on the piazza of Tucson
hotel. Three men sat there in the
warm aud drowsy afternoon. They
had uncovered their heads for comfort,
and they were all bald. A little streak
of sunlight gilded the skulls, and as
the men sat there another came up and
looked at them. Then he slowly took
out his revolver. A simultaneous
movement took place on the part of
the three men, but the stranger waved
his hand for peace, and, holding up his
weapon, asked the middle man:
"How much will you give me on itP"

A remarkably delicate operation was
performed recently on the eye of man
named Frame, at st. Mary's Hospital, by DR..
Eugene Smith, of this city. Mr.. Frame had
his RIGHT eve hnrned with mnltan irnn n
short time ago, and the upper and lower lid
had grown fast to the eyeball, interfering
with its movements. DIR. Smith cut the
lids loose from the ball, and taking piece
of the mucous membrane from the eye of
rabbit transplanted it 10 the eye of the man.
Tn few weeks the membrane will grow
over tho entire raw part of the lid, and the
mans eye in time will become as good as
ever. Detroit Journal,
"A very sensational discovery in the
Frank Knoch family murders has just come
to light, says recent special from Detroit.
A man whose name is withheld for obvious
reasons was chopping in the woods near the
scene of the tragedy day or two ago, and
in the course of his work he came upon
hollow tree that attracted his attention.
Through the opening at the butt he saw
several poles standing upright as though
arranged to support some weight above
in the body of the tree. His curl
osity was aroused and he began
removing them to ascertain the pur-
pose in placing them there. He was
startled upon removing the last prop to re-
ceive in his extended hands wad of cloth
ing, stained and stiffened by frozen blood.
Opening them to view he found full suit
of mems clothing-trousers, coat, and vest
stained front and back with blood. He
made known his discovery to the proper Off
cials, and now the effort to learn who owned
or wore the garments the night the tragedy
was enacted is the work of Sheriff Stell-
wagon and those who are assisting him in
his efforts to ferret out the authors of the
crime. The owner Of the bloody clothes is
undoubtedly the slayer of Knoch, his wife,
and two children.

That she might happy be-
Safely sheltered from the worlds unrest,

The Saviour called her to His breast,
And she was folded in.
Ahl Then my heart was desolate,
And life seemed dark and cold ;yi
SO long to weep. 80 long to wait y y
Outside the Shepherds fold.
And yet, knew n crown more fair,
No life prolonged could win,
As when, I'm answer to that prayer,
My lamb was folded in. Nt
For her sweet sake I'll bear the cross,

For mine is but an earthly loss,
And hers Heavenly gain.
Safe sheltered from the worlds unrest,
Its sorrow, and its sin,
She sleeps upon the Shepherd'a breast,
