The question whether or not the marriage
OF the Duke of Marlborough and Mrs. Ham
merslcy be legal has been raised. Some law
yers hold that, while it may be valid in Eng
land, 1t is invalid in New York. The general
opinion of the bar seems to be that II is at
least dubious. The trouble lies in the fact
that under the laws of New York, the Duke
could not have been divorced from his first
wife. II will probably be a great while be-
fore we shall hear the last Of this marriage.

The Alaskan Damsel's Doll.

The dusky damsel of Alaska has an
ivory doll. 1t is carved from walrus
tusk any length from one to six inches,
with nose carved, and eyes, eyebrows
and mouth Of black enamel. Even the
inch-long baby has features carefully
made. She has also a doll Of wood, six
or eight inches long, with its face carved
and a curious ornament just below the
corners of the mouth. This is a blue
bead. and Is in imitation of the fashion
Of her tribe, Of making in the lower lip
an opening like a button hole, through
which any desired ornament may be
thrust. None of the Alaska dolls have
joints, but this unnatural stiffness has
apparently not been altogether satisfac-
tory to the small damsels, for some are
carved in a sitting posture.
The most humble doll is simply a stick
with a head carved on the end. But the
most elaborate of all Indian dolls | have
seen belongs also Ia Alaska. 1t is carved
from dark colored wood, with mouth
open, showing three white teeth. and it
has real hair, in locks six inches long,
stuck into holes in the wooden head, with
the drollest ''patchy" effect. - Olive
Thorre Miller in st. Nicholas.

Queer Binding for Books.

Extravaganza in binding has frequently
furnished an opening for the display Of
fantastic tricks and fads. In a book
sellers catalogue was once an advertise
ment of "a Latin copy of Apuleius'
Golden Ass" bound in the skin Of an
ass. A book relating to Jeffrey Hudson,
the celebrated dwarf, was bound in a
piece of the silk waistcoat Of Charles l.
Fox's historical works were bound in fox
skin, and Bacon's works were dressed
out in hog skin. One offspring of the
French revolution was the grim humor
of binding books in human skin. France
was not alone in this practice. In vari-
GUS parts Of England the skin of muir
dererS has been tanned and used to bind
books. The public library Of Bury st.
Edmands has a book containing the ac-
count of the trial of a man for murder
bound in his own skin. Eccentricities
of binding in such rs skinsof cats, croco-
die, mole, seal, wolf, tiger, bear, etc.,
abound. The use of cloth in binding is
n Of comparatively recent date. In
1885 Archibald Leighton introduced
cloth for covers, the first books so bound
being Byron's complete works. -Provi-
dence Journal.

Emancipation Among the cherokees.

Among other ent showing the pro-
gress Of emancipation. the act of the
national council of Cherokces has been
overlooked. Professor Foster writes to
The Century recalling the fact that this
tribe did, on the 18th day Of February,
1868, pass a decree of emancipation. 'Be
it enacted by the national council, That
all negro and other slaves within the
lands Of the Cherokee nation be, aud
they are hereby, emaucipated from
slavery; and any person or persons who
may have been held in slavery are hereby
declared to lie free forever" This net is
remarkable from the pro-slavery senti.

Herr schoenweg's Discovery.

Securite, the new flnmelcss explosive,

has been used in Germany for two years
past. 1t is composed OF a nitratcd hydro
carbon In combination with certain oxi.
dining agents, which ia rendered Hameless
by the addition Of a certain proportion Of
an organic salt. II emits a spark In ex-
ploding, but this spark Is harmless, not
possessing sufficient energy 10 explode

action Of the organic salt the spark Is
almost instantly extinguished. In the
tests mentioned, the flameless ''securite'
was exploded IN vessels containing the

with coal dust. but while gunpowder In
