A JEALOUS HUSBAND.

An InteNesting Trio at the Police
station
Last evening young Mrs. Ramsay, who
lives with her husband on Rose street
attended a concert with some lady
friends. Mrs. Ramsay has a small
amount of Ethiopian blood in her veins
but that does not prevent her from beng
unusually pretty and very stylish. Hel
husband, who is bright, good-lookine
young fellow, did not accompany her tc
the concert for the reason that he is
busy during the evenings. He hung
round the exit from the hall, however,
and watched for his lady when
she should appear. At last she came out
clinging to the arm of another young
colored man, whose name is Jones.
Like most men who have very pretty
wives, Ramsay is very jealous, and that
Jones and Mrs. Ramsay should be hav-
ing such desperately good time to-
gether was just about all that he could
stand. At last when they went into a
restaurant and she ordered some oys-
ters he made up his mind that the
thing must be stopped. He called out
to Jones to look out for himself ior
he was going to lick him and pitched
into his wife's companion. Officer
Finucane, who heard the outcry made
by the woman, ran up and got to the spot
just as the mill was over. All three
we're brought to the station and they told
their stories each one after the other to
Night Clerk Roberts and the assembled
members of the force. Mrs. Ramsay
said that her husband was unreasonably
jealous and was always getting her into
scrapes. Ramsay said he was going to
lick any Niger who tried to meddle
with his wife, and Jones said that
he had merely offered to escort
Mrs. Ramsay home, because other
wise she would have been un-
attended; as a gentleman he could
hardly have done less. Mr.. Jones fur
thermore remarked, very sensibly, that
as he didn't want to make trouble for
the lady, he would not bring any charge
of battery against her husband. Ram.
say was accordingly allowed to go, after
he and his wife had come in for scold
ings and compliments from the officers,
and the two went off together, still
wrangling about the unlucky Mr.. Jones

POLICE MATTERS.
No Change Made fn the Programme
Yesterday.

The names of a number OF the police
men who are to be dropped from the roll
on Monday next have leaked out in some
manner but the fact that they will
be dropped has not been confirmed.
1t was stated yesterday that the list of
appointments would not be given out or
made public until tomorrow afternoon.
So far it is stated that there has been no
change in the plan as arranged on
Wednesday last, but there are
some who think the meeting to-
morrow morning will bring forth
something new. The officers who have
been informed that they are to be
dropped have had their friends at work
trying to induce the Commissioners to
change their minds and they hope that
there will be change. A reason
given for the refusal of the list TO
the public is that changes were
possible, and they did not care to an
nounce a programme which was not
absolutely unchangeable. 1t is stated
that some ordinances will be presented
to the Council on Monday next for
approval, but it is not known
| what the tenor of these will be.
1t is suspected, however, that one
request will be for an increased force.
The annual report of the Chief of Police
shows that Los Angeles has very small
force in comparison with other cities, and
it is the purpose to use the figures pre-
sented Herewith for argument.

MARKETS.
VTNnrcATop n

VINDIoAToR OFFICE, ]
STAUNToN. Va, March 30th. !
The general grain market of the country has
been toning u the last few days. The Wes-
tern markets as judged by Chicago, and those
of the East, Baltimore taken as sample, show
an advance both in wheat and corn, of from
one to two cents per bushel. The wave has
not as yet reached Staunton, and we are
therefore, not able to report any improvement
here. There is seemingly no disposition to
buy wheat at all either by millers or Shippers,
though this is doubtless owing in part, at
least to the fact that the samples offered late.
ly have been of undesirable lots Really
prime wheat would likely bring couple of
cents more than current quotations. There is
rather more disposition to buy corn than
wheat. Mr.. j. w. Brooks of this county, sold
yesterday the handsomest yellow corn we have
seen this season. 1t was the variety known as
Golden Beauty" and is certainly appropri-
ately named. 1t is said to yield splendidly,
and is very popular. We believe the corn
that took the premium over all other yellow
corn at the District Fair last year and the
year before was the Golden Beauty" the far
mer who first exhibited it having purchased
the seed in Pennsylvania and raised it for the
sole purpose of taking the premium, and it
was from his crop that Mr. Brooks and others
got their seed. This is one of the ways in
which fairs help the farming interest.
Hay, cloverseed and oats are without spec
ial feature. Each remains as before without
animation. Offerings are light owing to the
