An Indians Paie-Face Bride. Ashland tWis.) Special to the Milwaukee Sent

nell
 An intelligent, we'll educated and indus- trious Indian is very rare person, but Ash land has such resident, and this city is the scene of the final enactment of a most ex- traordinary romance. The marriage of Miss Cora Belle Fellows, an unattractive woman, looking for notoriety, becoming the bride of a big, lazy redskip, is in marked contrast with that of refined, we'll bred lady be- coming the wife of the Chippewa Indian re- ferred to. His name is William Haskins, and he has lived in northern Wisconsin for many years. He has smassed 6 by no means inconsiderable fortune and is a shrewd busi- ness man, ss all who have dealings with him testify. Three weeks ago an ordinary notice in 8 Madison (Wis.) newspaper announced the marriage, at the maternal residence of the bride, of Mir. Haskins, of Ashland, Wis, and Miss India Carmine Gile, of Madison. No one in this city, however, who was ace auRinted with MT. Haskins became aware of the fact that he was newly welded man. Several days ago the couple arrived bere and took rooms in one of the hotels, afterwards going to keeping house" on Second street, east. Not even then did it leak out that such romantic union had occurred. A call st the apartments of the newly welded cou- pie was made this afternoon. The bride groom came to the door and, on learning the mission of the reporter, cordially invited him into his psrlor. The rooms were well

Warm Winter Underwear.


 There seems to be no doubt that there is finally rebellion among customers against the cotton and wool underwear which has been so long offered us under the name of merino. This underwear has been one of the shams which people have patiently en- dured, partly because there was nothing bet ter offered and partly because of the careless laundress, who, by native processes of her own, uniformly and promptly shrunk all wool goods past wearing limits. ManufacA turers of the ribbed wool and woolen silk or silk underwear, and of sanitary underwear, make garments which are of fine wool, are dainty to look at and comfortable to wear, and which are now fitting to the figure by their elasticity. These garments leave no heavy crsases and add no apparent size to the figure. The choicest of these is the silk underwear, which in good quality begins st about five dollars the vest. When more warmth is required silk and wool or pure wool are used. The sanitary underwear, which is imported, is made with fell seams and is not 50 comfortable for this reason as ribbed wool, although the beautiful white and natural colored stockinet of which it is made may be purchased by the yard and made up at home by hand with softer seam. As these seams come only on the shoulder and in some other places, and not under the arms, they are not seriously ob- jeetionsble to every one. Very careful in- structions are issued by the manufacturers for the washing of these all wool aud silk

New York has problem to deal with in which every State in the Union is interested. What is known as the Yates bill was passed at the extra session of the legislature in July doing away with all motive power machinery in the prisons and con6ning the labor of the men to the making of such articles as are used in the penal institutions of the State. That bill became law and went into effect August 1. New York has great many pris- oners. There are in the three State prisons 5000 convicts, 150 of whom, it is found, can manufacture all the goods that are needed annually by the prisons and charitable insti- tutions, inasmuch as the later, with more than 17,000 inmates, already makes for themselves 50 per cent. of the articles they require. The result is not only deficit, but an enforced id1eness on the part of the con- viots. The condition of affairs in the prisons 1s already bad enough, but the superinten~ dent of State prisons predicts that the situs- ton will grow worse, inasmueh as the men cannot be kept marching about prisons yards during the indictment winter weather as large 8 part of the day as they have been up to this time, and they will have to be even more strictly confined.
 The labor organizations are principally re- sponsible for the passage of the Yates bill, which will cost .he taxpayers of New York ct the rate of about $4O0,000 year as long as it is in force. The prison officials con- demn the law as crime against the people of the State. The convicts condemn it as an outrage against themselves, and are praying for it's immediate repeal. On the other hand the labor men say if it was properly carried out it would be grand success; that an end,
 at least, has been put to a serious competi- tion, and that honest labor has been greatly
 benefited. They say they have other bills for supplementary legislation of the same kind for presentation this winter which vii compel prison officials to make the Eatel law a complete success.
 It is difficult to see how such law car ever be 6 success. It probably never vii be, and the legislature will be asked to give immediate attention to the matter. A New York Herald reporter has been travelling
 about the State sounding public opinion con cerning the law. He says: Nine out of ter either sasore at it or at the men who made il a law 1et every one argued that some law was necessary, but said that the claims o \ the labor organizations as to the competition
 and the corruption of prison officials undeI the State account plan should have been frs
 investigated. found very lively public
 sentiment against the keeping of convicts 1T ! idleness. There is good deal of feeling or the matter, which the labor men charge thu prison officials with working up so as to ge
 the State account plan put in force again
 Under that system it is alleged that the pris
 on officials made large personal profits ant | that the State was robbed in various ways.

President Lincoln,s Leg Cases.

AhCAAAAHAoSOASOS'1
 No man clothed with such vast power as President Lincoln ever yielded it more ten derly and more forbearingly. No man hold ing in his hands the key of life and death ever pardoned so many offenders and ea- silly There were from time to time of course instances of cowardice in the army in the face of the enemy, crime justly punishable by the laws of war throughout the world with death. In the early years of the war all the death penalties of court martials had to be sent to the President, as commaeder in chief, for his approval. When Judge Holt. the judge advocate general of the army, laid the first case before the President and ex- plained it, he replied: ftWell. I will keep this few days until I have more time to read the testimony" That seemed quite
 reasonable. When the judge explained the
 next case MT. Lincoln said: 1T must put
 this by until I can settle in my mind wheth-
 CT this soldier can better serve the country
 dead than living" To the third he answered:
 'sThe general commanding the brigade is to be here in a few days to consult with Stan ton and myself about military matters; I will wait until then and talk the matter over with him."
 Finally there was fragrant case of a sol dier who in the crisis of battle, demoral- ized his regiment by his cowardice, throwing down his gun and hiding behind friendly stump When tried for his cowardice there was no defense. The court martial, in ex- amipipg his aDteeedents, found that he had neither father nor mother living, nor wife nor child; that he was unfit to wear the loy- al uniform, and that he was thief who stole continually from his comrades "Here. " said Judge Holt, 'sis case that comes exact 1 ly within your requirements. He does not | deny his guilt; he will better serve the coun- | try dead than living, as he has no relations | to mourn for him, and he is not fit to be in | the ranks of patriots at any rate" MT. Lincoln's refuQe of excuse was all swept l away Judge Holt expected of course that
 he would write approved" on the paper | but the President, running his long fingers | through his hair, as he often used to dc when in serious thought, replied: Well l after all, judge, think must put this with my leg csses,"
 'tLeg cases," said Judge Holt, with z
 frown at this supposed levity of the Presi- | dent in case of life and death. "What dc you mean by leg cases, sir?'
 ''Why, why" replied Mr. Lincoln, "do
 you see those papers crowded into these pig
 con holesa They are the cases that you cal 1 by that long title, 'cowardice in the face oi l an enemy but call them, for short, my leg cases.' put it to you, sir, and I leave | 1t for you to decide for yourself; if Almigh- | ty God gives man cowardly legs, how caE he help their running away with himF"

The ChInaman and His Gods.


 The Chinaman uses his gods chiefly to drive away bad luck. He has an image of Mum Gun Chong Howa Pore, or the grand mother god, over his bed, that nothing may happen while he sleeps; god in the Kitchen to keep evil out of the cooking-gods every where. But his real everyday guardians are not gods at all. They are the spirits of his ancestors. He appeals to them in every matter of everyday life. To be sure, he be- heVes that his ancestors souls have passed into other beings, and are living in human or animal form at the moment; still he stretches his imagination to conceive that enough of their essential spirits float around to pervade their images and give aid when invoked. These spirits are supposed to occupy the space between earth and clouds Above the clouds the territory all belongs to the gods. The ancestral spirits and Joss are the super natural aids that the Chinese in America call upon. Joss, many centuries ago, was great human dignitary, who was deifed upon death. The bad spirits are those of men who were wicked in life or had some spite against certain naen still living. No one knows whether mans soul was good or bad while he lived, so his death, which sets an- other spirit free, seaEes Chinanen nightly.

It is related that there is a member of the Philadelphia board of education who asked a bookseller who this De Luxe was that wrote so many elegantly bound books.
 It is reported from France that the Hugue- nots are very actively engaged in evangelical work there, having established 800 stations or headquarters. In the American chapel in Paris one of their leaders recently said in the course of an address that the Huguenots could not be crushed out, but would live and work until France was spiritually free, if It required another St. Bartholomew.
 Boston is the Athens of America. Irish- Americans there are besought to support the "Irish chief magistrate" because the ''pres- ence of Hugh O'Brien in the chief executive chair of Boston has been an influential fact in the discussion of home rule before the bar of British Parliament opinion" It is urged that the defeat of MT. O'Brisn would carry joy to the London Times, Standard and Tel graph.
 The decision of Judge Andrews of New York in favor of the Commercial Telegram company is important. He holds that the Commercial has right to report the quota tions from the floor of the Stock Exchange, and that the Exchange cannot oust it with ont busting the Gold and Stock company. That secures competitor and prevents monop- oly in a service that is of the greatest impor- tanoe to the country.
 The refusal of the Sioux to sell part of their reservation in Dakota on the terms off fered by the government Is met by the prop osition embodied in bill offered by Delegate Clifford of Dakota to take the lands without their consent. The lands are theirs by as good @ title as the government can give. The promise was made and repeated that these lands should never be taken from them with out their consent And they never should be. The Montgomery advertiser exposes the il- literaey of Alabama in the following telling way: Forty-three per cent. of the people of Alabama who are ten years of age and over can't read. Fifty per cent. of the people of Alabama who are ten years old and over can't write. In Alabama there are 50, 174 white men and women twenty-one years old over who can't write. In Alabama there are Ill .767 white people over ten years old who ! can't write. In Alabama there are 37o, ,279 people who are over ten years old and don't know how to read. h Alabama there are 4s5, AT people over ten years old who don't know how to write.
 An interesting question is being debated in
 the village of Rossville, Illinois, where the Methodist Republicans bet largely in the re-
 cent election from money to cows, and new,
 1t is hinted, propose to apply their winnings
 to building much needed $1 ,000 church ad-
 dition. The pastor, Rev. W. T. Beadles, is
 a Prohibitionist and is violently opposed to
 thus despoiling the Egyptians for the beauti-
 flying of the sanctuary. He in fact takes ul- ] tss ground end not only refuses permission

goods, and if these are followed this under wear will come out of the lsundress' hands uninjured. While there are few people who are so extreme as to insist on woolen pocket handkerchiefs and woolen towels, as some of the most fanatical advocates of wool do, there are also few intelligent people who do not believe that woolen or silk undergar- ment is the most wholesome and comfortable clothing, and that they are not essential to health in winter and summer. To be whole some and comfortable this article should be porous and elastic, and it is exactly such garments that the manufacturers of the new styles of underwear provide, and for these reasons they have at once become popular with sensible and fashionable people.
