The preliminary examination in the Diss
Debar case ended as it was apparent to
nearly every one it must end when the attempt
to rescue an eminent lawyer from the clutches
Of an impostor was begun. The woman and
the man whom she claimed as a husband were
held in heavy bail for the action of the Grand
Jury. Yesterday they were indicted for con-
spiracy. The sooner they are tried the better.
The preposterous stories told by the couple on
the witness-stand merely confirm the general
impression regarding them which the previous
exposures had created.

electing Aldermen by wards. THE TRIBUNE
has advocated both of these measures, believ-

Chicago Strangely Visited,
From the Chicago Tribune

FROM the CnlcagO 1rlDune.
Chicago had two puzziiDg Vlsl fatlons
last week. They were harmless and had
no worse effect than to cause the ety.
moiogists and the ornithologists to rack
their brains in vain and ordinary folk to
ask good many unanswered questions.
Thursday night suburban residents who
took the midnight train on the Illinois
Central found the sidewalk at the foot
of Randolph Street under the electric
light strewn with a multitude of large
"bugs," unlike anything anybody had
seen before. They ranged in length
from one to two inches, and had the
general characteristics of the locust.
They were so large and so I'M
usual that they attracted the at
tentiOn of every one who was
around at that time of night; In fact the
trainmen pinned several of them up on
big placard and threw knives at them.
A bug big enough for target is consid-
cradle of bug. So far as is known
they were noted in no other part of the
city. 1t is suggested that they were
seventeen-year locusts, which would ac-
count for the ignorance displayed con-
corning them, but the insect in question
does not makes It's appearance at this
season of the year. At any rate, they
were undoubtedly bound for some
other place, and were carried out OF
their way by some sudden change in
the atmospheric programme.
That same night and the next day a
multitude of small birds unlike any
thing ever seen here before made their
appearance. They settled down on
Michigan Avenue and many of them
dashed themselves to death against the
electric lights. They were pretty little
birds, trifie smaller than the English
sparrow, and had bright plumage-yel.
low, d, green and darker shades
They were exhausted as if from long
flight, and quite a number were caught
by pedestrians. Though nobody seems
TO be able to give any definite informa
ton, they were similar to what the
small boys call summer BIRDS" which
appear with the first real summer
weather. Why they should have ar
rived here at this season is not ex.
planned. 1t may be that they as well.as
the "bugs" were caught by heavy
wind and driven out of their course

The owl was white on the breast, and

Last Monday morning Mr.. LaRue

AS night advanced, Mira. Van Wyck
insisted that Jessica should go to bed.
She appeared reluctant to do SO, but
goon consented. 1t had b en- week
since she had watchers with her at
night, and when the widow proposed to
pass the night on the sofa IN her room,
Jessica positively refused to permit

At ten o'clock the WIDOW softly came
into her chamber with a lamp. The
girl lay motionless, with her eyes
closed.
"Poor dearl" said the former, as she
went to her own room; Il hope she
will rest so all tight.
But Jessica wa not asleep. She had
not been.
She waitad ar hour longer. Then
she rose anu lighted lamp. She
dressed herself, made up a small
bundle, and putting on her bonnet,
placed her hand on the door-knob.
Then came moment of irresolution.
She stood for moment in deep and
anxious thought.
She went back and sat down. Her
reflections were deep and distressful.
She had thought, upon lying down
that evening, that she had settled
everything in her own mind, and that
her course was perfectly clear. But
now new and troublesome suggestion
came-now at the last moment
She did not find it easy to decide.
But at last her resolution was taken.
"He has right to know the reason, "
she thought. 1T will be painful; but
it is only one more pang He must

only way to keep him from pursuing

There were writing materials in a
drawer of the bureau. She placed
them on the table and began to write.
Slowly and as if restrained by deep
agitation she at first wrote. But as
she proceeded her pen moved rapidly,
and sheet after sheet was covered with
her firm, large characters. The com
task was indeed painful; but she perse-
vered until 1t was finished.
She gathered up the pages, placed
them in order, folded them, and wrote
on the outside, "For Mr.. Belmont.
Then she placed the package in con
spicuous place on the bureau.
The hour was past twelve.
She extinguished the light, noise

At the gate she turned and looked

she look back at the cottlg

Grants Good Fortune,
From the New York Herald.

Leonard SWEET told an interesting
story the other day, illustrative of Gen.
Grants traditional good luck, as well as
his lack of what is called shrewdness in
commercial dealings. When Grant was
engaged in writing his memoirs the
Century Company, which had been
publishing some of his war articles in
the Century Magazine, offered him $10,-
600 for the manuscript of his book.
Webster, the publisher, also had his eve
on the alert for the forthcoming work,
and one day called on the general to in
quire about it. Grant was seated at his
desk, about to attach his signature to the
Century Company's contract, which Law

occurred to him to ask more for his lit
| erary production. Webster intimated
that he would like to make an offer.

said, Il would like TO inquire how much

A Saint Still on Salary,
From the st. James Gazette.


A canoniZed saint who has been dead
more than fourteen centuries, but still
contin ues to draw an annual salary foi
services rendered, is certainly an extra
ordinary phenomenon. The saint il
Saint Antony, and his paymaster is the
state Of Brazil. So at least, says the Allge-
meme Deutsch Zeitung, the organ of the
German colony in Rio. The old
Egyptian hermit is officially ecognized
and described in Brazil as the
"Tenante Colonel honorario dc
exercitio Brazilieno, glorioso santc
Antonio"-the honorary Lieutenant
Colonel of the Brazilian army, The
glorious Saint Antony. The sum of $40,
600 is paid to him annually as his due
military stipend, and the saint receives
it through the hands of the prior of the
Monastery de Santo Antonio on the
Moro. By what means the money
p sses from the prior's hands into those
of the saint has not yet been made
clear.
