Appearances Are Deceptive.

An effectionate embrace between amar-
ried couple who are at eninity may, under
most circumstances, be taken to signify
that a reconciliation has supervened. But
there are exceptions to every rule, as a
Marseilles seafaring man has j~ustlearned.
Three years ago he married a widow
thirty years his senior, the lady being
well ON the road for three score and ten.
II her charms, however, were faded, her
fortune was fascinating, for she had as
many thousand francs as she reckoned
years of life. 1t need hardly be said that
the marriage did not turn out a success
for the foolish old lady, who, finding that
she had IN her husband a cruel, brutal
mate, spent her days and nights in tears
and lamentations, and finally determined
to seek a divorce.
The divorce vas granted; but the hus-
band appealed against the decision of the
court, arguing that he and his wife had
become reconciled since the decree was
pronounced, and in proof of this he called
a number of witnesses who sWore that
they had seen the divorced couple en-
nracing each other. The court before
which the appeal came, however, inquired
further into the matter, ultimately decid-
ing that, seeing the old lady was para
lived, she might have been embraced
against her will, that the reconciliation
was therefore not proven, and that the
couple remained diyorced.-London

RAILROAD T


The West Shore Railroad Company has
discontinued the extra summer trains
which it has been running from the Penn
s~yfvania station. in this city,
to Saratoga and the Catskills.
The company has also abandoned
the parlor car service between Philadel-
phia, Baltimore and Washington, and the
mountain resorts which it reaches. Two
of it's regular trains will continue to leave
the Pennsylvania station during the
winter.
Piermont Pier, at Piermont, was re-
ported at the Erie Depot yesterday as
submerged by the high sea, and fears
were entertained for the safety of the
mammoth stru cture.
The Erie employees were paid off yes
terday. The pay car on the siding at the
foot Of Pavonia venue was surrounded
all the morning with a crowd that
waited patiently in the rain for individual
turns and then skipped for shelter.
Jacob Harris, chief detective of the
Erie pay car and the ''Muldoon'' of the
detective force, is still alive this morning,
but his efforts to clear the rain-soaked
crowd from about the doors of the pay
car yesterday made him weary. He
has been on the force for ten years, and
says he has never had a downright scufie
with any of the men.
