calvin M. Deillnger, the man charged at Lancas-
yer, Pa, with numbering his vile, whose dead
BODY was found on the banks Of the Little Cones
Alderman Spurrier. The theory OF the common
wealth's officers was that the accused took his
vile 10 the lonesome place, and, after drowning
her, drew the body ashore. They tried to show
mat breastpin found near the body had been
worn oy the accused just previous to the murder,
put Ialled. They were unable to show that the
footprints at the place were those OF Delnger as
Iney expected. IL Is not likely that further Efforts
WIN pc made 10 discover the murderer.

ance at the theaters and makes the au-
diences almost uniform?
There can't be an understanding
among the people as to who will so and
who will not. The size of the audience
is in one sense purely accidental, and
the puzzle is how series of accidents
can be of so uniform q character. Why
is it that some time everybody doesn't
conclude to go Monday night, or
Wednesday night, or some other par
ticular time? Is there any reason why
an accident of that kind should not hap
pen? And yet it never does happen.
1t must be by some unseen, unknown,
mystic influence that the theater-goers
of community apportion themselves to
the various nights of the week, so that
the attendance shall he about the same
each night. But that is all explanation
which does not satisfactorily answer the
question Republican.

WOESE THIN NEW JERSEY.

One OF the pests of life in South
America is the ubiquitous mosquito,
which there attains such an enormous
size and venom that his victims are
numbered by the scores. Not long ago
herd of valuable cattle taken from the
United States to a ranch upon the Mag
dalena River became so desperate under
the attack of the mosquitoes that they
broke from their stalls, jumped into
the water, and all were drowned. Pas.
sengers intending to make the voyage
usually provide themselves with pro.
lection in the shape Of mosquito bars,
head nets, and thick gloves, and when
on deck are compelled to tie their
sleeves around their wrists and panta.
looms around their ankles. Even these
precautions are not always effective.
Large as the insects are they seem to
have the power to creep through the
smallest crevice, and it is often neces.
sary to change ones clothing four OF
five times day on their account. Day
and night they give the sensitive
skinned travellers no rest. I have been
solemnly assured that often when they
have attacked a boat and driven it's cap

Hoe Pretty Miss Ma,hcr To,4mrcs Poor
Fred PaMIding.

How unreal are sometimes the ca
resses Of Romeo and Juliet? Frederick
Paulding is a Romeo who didn't get
along pleasantly with Margaret Mather
as his Juliet. They have just got back
to town after tour which began last
autumn, and during nearly the whole
time they were at odds. The first fall
ing out occurred before they had been
playing mimic lovers for week. Miss
Mather is said to have thereupon de-
clared war. She would make his ex-
perience as her stage lover quite the
opposite OF what it seemed to be to the
audience. Paulding is mild-man-
nered, good-natr1red sort Of fellow, and
not ct all the man to fight back against
q woman. It is declared that night
after night she placed a number of pins
in her Juliet costume. so that when he,
Romeo, had to warmly embrace her, he
was bound to scratch his hands. 1t was
her habit, too. to hang her head on his
