A Strange Hereditary Curse.

Boston Letter in the Ne,U Orleans Picdyune.
There is a certain family here in Boston
which suffers from a mysterious hereditary
curse of the sort one reads about in hair-ele-
waiting stories of the supernatural. The first
son born to every daughter bleeds to death.
The story of the manner in which the afflic-
| ton originated cannot, of course, be vouched
for. 1t has to do with wicked great grand
mother, who murdered a CHI uncle by opening
one OF his veins with poniard, in order to get
possession of the old gentleman's vast wealth
The ghost of the deceased subsequently ap-
cared to the INSCRIPTIONS niece and an
nounced in hollow tones, appropriate to the
tomb the dismal prediction tnat for all time
henceforth the eldest male child of every girl in
her family should uie by bleeding.
So much for the explanatory tradition. The
| fact is that for many generations the Crockett
| family of CharleStown--which is a part of
Boston-and vicinity has been pursued by a
hemorrhagic Nemesis. The first son born to
every daughter, even to remote cousins, invar-
ably bleedS to death. All other members of the
| Crockett tribe are exempt from the mysterious
| trouble. But the method of this inherited
curse is so well known that each female
| Crockett is prepared on the arrival of her
initial hoy for the experience that is bound to
ensue. The first little cut or even scratch the
infant experiences is the signal for panic
Bandages are applied as quickly as possible,
and the wound is treated with preparation of
| iron in the form of a powder 1t is a narrow
squeak in such cases always but there is a good
| chance of recovery within eight days if the
| thing is taken in time. At the end of that
period the patient either gets well or dies from
| loss of blood very suddenly For such is the
| manner of the bleeder' complaint. He is sure to
/ be attacked in precisely the same way every
time during his after life that his skin is seri-
| ously abraded. On occasions of the sort he
must adopt immediate m assures remedial or
| die. By exercising the most extraordinary pre-
| cautions he may reach comfortable age, but
| sooner or later he is sure to perish by an I'M
| toward accident, causing flow of blood which
| no physicians art can stop. So far, not q
| single one of the destined victims has escaped
| the penalty. The oldest one now living is a
| Mr.. Surratt of Melrose, who has been accus-
| toned, when he wanted a tooth pulled, to revise
his will visit his relatives and bid tnem all good
| by as though it was likely to be forever Life
| is an extra hazardous risk when you are a
| beeder. Thus it happens that eldest sons of
| the Crockett family, direct and collateral on
| the maternal side, are found to be engaged in
grave digging aud other harmless avocations,
which are not likely to occasion incidental
| hur

Eager Republicans.

The republican leaders in this city seem
to be OF the opinion that Gen. Harrison will
lose no time after he is inaugurated in turn
ing the democrats out of Office. Indeed
their belief on this point is so strong that,
according to the published reports, they
have decided upon the offices they want,
and, perhaps, they will lose no time in mott
flying Gen. Harrison of their wishes in the
matter.
Are they not showing great deal of
haste, and is it not among the possibilities
that they will be disappointed1 The
chances are that Gen. Harrison will not be
in hurry about making changes in office,
and 1T would not be at all surprising if he
were to permit every official appointed for
specified time to serve out his full term He
is pledged to civil service reform, and he
is not likely to break his pledges without
an excellent reason for doing so.
The Republican party asserted through
out the campaign that it was much more
likely to give the country genuine civil
service reform than the. Democratic party,
and Gen. Harrison is not apt to forget this
He has a very excellent memory, and,
although he is a strong partisan, his record
justifies the belief that he will not violate
either the civil service law, or the spirit
of it.
The chances are that he will enforce the
civil service law, and that he will obey the
spirit of it to the extent of permitting those
offices VINO do not come within its provisions
to retain their places until the ex oiration of
their terms. This is what President Cleve-
land did. and if Gen. Harrison follows his
example, no republican in this city will get
federal Office for good many months
There is another thing which it would be
| well for those who are looking at the offices
| with hungry eyes to consider carefully. It
| is that Gen. Harrison will take time to con-
slider his course with respect to the south
J The republican leaders want to build up the
Republican party in the south, and
in order to do so they may decide
that they do not want to use any of the old
political timber in their building opera
tons. OF course nobody can say what
Gen. Harri on's course will be rel alive to
southern affairs, but the republicans of this
| city who have picked out the offices they
want may save themselves from suffering a
little disappointment by not showing too
much eagerness to get posse sion of the
spolls

Mr.. Cleveland Not to Blame.

| 1t is said that those who are hostile to
the President in his own party have already
begun to place the responsibility upon him
for the defeat of the democrats. and that
they are condemning his policy with respect
| to the tariff and the civil service in the
| strongest terms.
OF course those democrats who have a
| grievance against the President will i'm
| prove the present opportunity to show
| their ill-will. They will not attempt to
| analyze the vote to find out whether the
Presidents course with respect to the tariff
| and the civil service caused his defeat, but
| they will assume that it did
The Philadelphia Times calls attention to
the fact that the great manufacturing city
Of Philadelphia gave Mr.. Cleveland a
great deal larger vote on Tuesday than it
did in 1884, and says that the increase was
due to the fact that factory operatives are
beginning TO give the tariff question careful
study.
In New York Gov. Hill's vote was larger
than Mr.. Cleveland's, but it was larger
only in the cities Of New York and Brook
lyn. The local contests in those cities
al "a "a oh diilplC lCd>Ol why OOf. LII 10
ceived the larger number.
In the manufacturing states of New Jer-
sey aud New Hampshire Mr.. Cleveland's
plurality was greater this year than in
1884, AMI in the manufacturing state of
Connecticut it was nearly the same.
Ohio is about the largest wool producing
state in t. union, ard although he advocated
free wool, he maia great gains there over
his vote in 1884. In fact, if the vote of the
entire country is analysed. it will be found
that his tariff reform policy did not inter
fore with lis success.
1t can't hardly be asserted seriously that
his civil service policy caused him to lose
any considerable number of votes That
policy is popular with the people, although
it may not be regarded with favor by the
ofiice-seekiug class and a few politicians
1t must not be forgotten that the national
republican platform APPROVES civil service
reform in much stronger language than the
national democratic platform. Gen. Harri-
son is pledged to carry out that reform,
and it cannot therefore be reasonably said
that there were those VINO opposed Mr.
Cleveland because of his civil service re-
form record unless they do not believe that
Gen. Harrison will keep his pledges
Mr. Cleveland has made no mistakes, and
those who are disposed to do him justice
will not say that he has. Those who are
his enemies, however, will make the mos.
of their opportunity to create the impress
sion that he alone is responsible for the de-
feat which his party suffered.

The Nebraska supreme court has decided
case involving the validity Of secret mar
Rage in that state. A woman alleged that
she had been secretly married TO man in
Chicago. She did not know whether the
person performing the ceremony was q
minister or not, and there were 10 wit
nesses. The marriage was kept secret for
two years. On the other hand, the man de
MED that any ceremony had been per-
formed but admitted that on several
occasions he had ACKNOWLEDGED tho woman os
his wife. The court accepted the story of
the woman, and held that secret marriages,
even where there were no witnesses, and
when the evidence of ministers performing
them could not be obtained, were valid in
law. 1t will strike some people that, under
the decision, all Nebraska woman has to
do to capture a husband is to pick out her
man and swear that she was married to him
in secret.

The Insurance Deposit Law.

The legislature should repeal that pro-
vision of the statutes which requires an in-
surance company to deposit S25, 900 with
the state treasurer before it can do business
in this state.
The provision was intended to protect
those desiring insurance against wild cat
insurance companies. 1t probably does that
to limited extent, but the tax for that
protection is, it is believed, altogether too
great. How much greater the cost of in
surance is on account of that provision eau
not be stated of course, bat there is reason
to believe that it is considerable
Most people who want insurance are in
telligent enough to find ST. whether or not
an insurance company is an honest and
strong one before insuring in it, and there
is no reason why the great majority should
pay higher rates of insurance because few
lack such intelligence.
The few companies which make the de-
post of S25 900 have a monopoly of the in
surance business, and they can easily com
bine and fix the rates to suit themselves
Good companies which don't care to put
part of their capital in the Keeping of the
treasurer of Georgia are shut out Of the
State The law makes a monopoly poSsiblss
aud it is monopoly from which the people
doubtless suffer.
If the legislature thinks it is its duty to
protect those of the people VINO are not
capable of protecting themselves, against
wild cat insurance companies. 1t would
save the people money by authorizing the
appointment of an insurance Inspector
and repeating the S25 900 deposit law. The
inspector could keep the people posted
about the standing Of all insurance COM
panies. But is there any reason why the
legislature should protect the people
against a fraud of one kind any more than
another' There are plenty of frauds which
take money out of the peoples pockets and
the legislature does not seem to think it
necessary to protect the people against
| them.

A l5-cent plate of ice cream has caused a
restaurateur in New York to pay out $500.
Several months ago Mrs. Lucy Moore, a
novelist and poet living in that city, en-
tered the restaurant and ordered ice cream,
which, when it was placed before her, did
not suit her She said it was too soft,
and refused to pay for it, The waiter
caught her by the arm, and took her UNI
brella. The proprietor pronounced the
cream all right, and said he would keep
the umbrella until Mrs. Moore paid him,
which Mrs. Moore did under protest. Her
next step, however, was TO bring suit for
81, 500 damages against him, and the jury
has awarded her $780, 10 is somewhat
difficult to understand how the jury ar
rived at its conclusion, but it is pretty GER
tain that Mrs. Moore now feels that al |
damages received by her have teen re-
paired.

of cabinet officers to tell them. The date
of the marriage has not been fixed, and
will not be until Mr.. Chamberlain arrives.
The affair will be a quiet one, however.
Mrs. Cleveland and the wives of cabinet

Born to BE a Politician.

labor orator told this story:
A farmer had son who showed no special
aptitude for business, and he was puzzled what
TO do with him. He concluded to try an ex-
pertinent. so he locked the boy in a room in
which there wers only Bible, an apple and a
dollar. few minutes later he stole quietly to
the room. he had made up his mind that If he
found the boy eating the apple he would make
a good farmer. if he were reading the Bible he
should be trained for the pulpit. and il he had
taken the money his success az a broker, the
father thought, was assured Upon entering
the room he found the boy sitting upon the
Bible, eating the apple, with the dollar in his
pocket The boy became an able politician"
