A Story of Domestic Trouble.

Deputy Marshal Seybcrt of Wilkes
barre, Penn, attempted to serve notices
of the Luzerne County Probate Court in
the Baltimore ami Potomac Station
Thursday night on the widow of A. Nj.
Noycs. Scybcrt threw the papers on
the floor and Mrs. Noycs picked them up,
while the Marshal escaped down Sixth
street. The trouble arose over some
property in Pennsylvania to which she
was an heir.
The story of the litigation is an in
teresting one. Mrs. Noyes was married
in Pennsylvania forty-four years ago,
to John Scy bert, a brother of the Sheriff.
Their married life ended in divorce,
but Scybert at his death left his late
wife, who had married Noycs, most of
his considerable property near Wilkes
barre But Scybcrt had borrowed
this resulted in a long litigation after his
death. The matter was finally settled in
Y, 1873, when Judge Barnum, II
friend of the family, bought the prop
crty at public sale for $1,000 and then
agreed to pay Mrs. Noyes S4, 900 in re-
mittances of $50 per month Judge
Barnum was indebted to Daniel +. Scy-
bert, the deputy sheriff, who obtained
judgments amounting to 81, 300 against
the estate. After u great deal of litiga-
tion, Scybcrt secured the citations for
the different heirs to appear on Scptcm-
her 10 or forfeit their rights. Mrs.
Noycs is one of the heirs, and the trouble
in the depot was caused when he served
the summons on her.

THE LADY TENNIS CHAMPION.
Miss bod of England as Much ofa Phenom-
enon as the Rcnshaws.

Miss DOd of England as Much OF aPhenom-
enon as the Rcnshaws.
Miss /. bod, the lady champion, is GER
tainly quite as much phenomenon at the
game as either of the brothers Renshaw, says
the London Sunday Times. Ladies had prac-
ticed the game for some time before any one
of the weaker sex developed anything like eX-
ceptional form, and then Miss Maud Watson
came out from the remainder with bound,
and, seeing how many are the disabilities
standing in the way of ladies, 1t seemed at the
time as though this lady would retain her
supremacy She held the championship for
two years, when Miss Bingley (now Mrs. Hill
yard) appeared upon the scene with her hard
drive. In 1885, at the Northern meeting, ap-
peared a very young lady, just IA years of age,
who PLAYED an excellent match with Miss
Maud Watson for the Northern championship,
each of the two sets played being advantage
sets (S-6, 7-5). This was Miss l.. bod.
In 1867 Miss bod defeated Miss Watson for
the Irish championship, once more for the
West of England championship, won the
Northern championship from her and wound
up by winning the championship. These sue
cesses she repeated this year. Miss bod has
defeated all the best lady players.
The foundation of Miss Dod's phenomenal
play lies in the possession Of perfect fore
hand drive, direct upward stroke without
side twist, which, II it does anything beyond
propelling the ball at great pace, puts for
ward top spin upon it which has the effect of
causing 1t to keep low on coming In contact
with the ground. verify believe Miss bod
to possess absolutely the most perfect drive of
any living playeHmale or female. No one
who had not seen itwould believe the pace at
which, at times, the ball crosses the net with
out losing particle of accuracy or travelling
more than six inches above the net cord. This
stroke forms tremendous attack, which soon
puts female opponent seriously on the de-
fensive. 1t is partly the outcome of practice,
of course, but many young ladies have SINH
lar opportunities, and yet do not develop the
same perfection. Miss bod is one of the few
lady players who ventures up to the net in a
singlc but her volleying is very sure, and ex-
ecuted with great Judgment.

Neat Way in Which Impecunious German
Noblemen Restore Their Fortunes


Noblemen Restore Their Fortunes.
In Berlin the walters in beer gardens are very
sly in securing tips When guest pays his
bill, and the waiter has to make change, the
latter returns all the change correctly except
ten pfenngs. The waiter searches indus
trously in all his pockets and displays osten-
tatiously all his change, but he has no ten
pfennig piece. As a general thing the depart
ing guest becomes inpatient, and, tired of
waiting for the small amount, tells the waiter
to keep the change. The celebrated Professor
Miller, who was frequent visitor TO the beer
gardens, had his curiosity excited TO find out
what the walters did with the ten-pfennig
piece, so he watched them. lie soon discov-
cred that the waiter put all the ten pfenuig
pieces iu the fthand pocket of his vest,
while the rest of his money went into his
trousers pocket
When Professor Mller's turn came to pay
for his beer, as usual the walter could not find
ten-pfennig piece TO complete the change.
81 am afraid" said the waiter, going furiousy
through his pockets, "that haven't got a ten
pfennig piece" Suppose you feel in the
left-hand pocket of your vest" replied the
Professor, suggestively. The waiter did 50,
and, as he handed out the requisite coin, lie
whispered in the Professors ear: ~ guess YOU
were n waiter yourself once upon time, but
don't give the snap away Paris Register.
