Prince George Eristoff de Gourie of Russia
whose cosmopolitan adventures have formed
the theme of much newspaper writing on
both sides of the Alta ntic, has fallen foul of
the New York police. The prince has been
well known to New York society for several
years and recently arrived from Paris. His
reputation as favorite with the fair sex has
been considerable, and his encounter with
the Marquis de Melville in Hyde park, Lon
don, few seasons ago, is still fresh in the
public mind. Both men were then aspirants
for the hand of Mrs. Frank Leslie He was
arrested on the charge of grand larceny. The
warrant on which he was arrested was issued
on complaint ofAugustus T. Rock well, who
alleges that de Gourie six weeks ago OBJ
tanned a sealskin overcoat worth $500 on q
promise to pay it on Feb. Is. The latter,
instead of paying for it, pawned it for 500.
The pawn ticket On coat we're recovered.

= The London Times, referring, to the
debate in the Canadian parliament, says:
sfThere is no occasion for Canadians to be-
gin to calculate the profit and loss of their
connection with England. The real cause of
her trouble is certainly not indifference to
Canadian interests on the part of England.
The cause will be found in well known ext
geneies of the presidential election in the
United States. We shallnot anticipate what
the Harrison cabinet will do. but we may
fairly hope that questions of immediate in.

An Incredible Yarn.

sensational story comes from Carbon
county, Wyoming, which brings Mrs. Kate
Maxwell the owner o small cattle ranch,
into prominence as u d9ring and desperate
woman, whose career may rival that of the
notorious Belle Starr Mrs. Maxwell is known
among ranchmen as Cattle Kate" and
since the recent wholesale cattle raids her
reputation has not been of the best. On her
ranch are some twenty cowboys, who have
been losing heavily during the last few weeks
at Il Fargo gamein Bessemer. Cattle Kate"
seldom goes into town, but when last Sun
day 81, 800 was stolen from her bedroom she
started out for gore. 1t is said she felt no
resentment toward the thieves, who were
her own men. but was convinced that they
we're being heeced by the two Colorado gam
blers, Farley and Goodell, who were
running the game. Half the population of
the little town and cowboys from several
ranches were in the gambling hell Monday
night. Kate was accompanied by her fore
man, an ex-Chicago gambler, and both were
armed to the teeth. She is an expert horse
woman and rode her horse inside the door
way of the saloon, dismounting with jump
that caused every man i'll the place to grab
his gun. With n big six-shooter in each hand
Kate walked up to the faro table and or
dered the dealer to ''get out" Mason fol-
lowed, and. securing the box and cards,
found what he anticipated, that the game
was the worst sort of IL Skin" or brace. "
While Kate kept the gamblers covered with
her revolvers, Mason explained to the crowd
how tho gamblers had been fleeing them.
| There was q wild rush made for Farley and
Goodell and they were dragged outside and
badly beaten. Some OF the crowd went for
ropes, and the two gamblers we're given
! ten minutes in which to say
their prayers. This last suggestion
made by O COW boy who had heard Moody in
San Francisco, was received with scorn by
the gamblers. Cattle Kate" and Mason sc.
cured the money in the drawer aud about
the place, and it is believed gotsaveral thous

SENATE.-After three days recess the
senate had n very brief session last evening
with bare quorum at the roll Gull, and les y
than quorum at the adjournment. Only
two bills were introduced, of which one is in
precise terms and wording the same as the
house bill providing that the oil inspector
shall subsist on salary and turn his fees
into the state treasury. Mr.. Keller intro
duced resolution calling on the state in
specuor of steam boilers to furnish the senate
with statement of the number of boilers he
had inspected, and of the fees accruing
therefrom, and forms of licenses issued to
engineers. II was adopted. Thisis prelimi-
nary to another move in the direction of re-
trenchment and reform. 1t is claimed by
Mr.. Keller and other senator's that the
Office of boiler inspector. is the
fattest office connected with the
state government, and that the fees there
from mount high up into the thousands each
year. Also it is claimed by these gentlemen

The Fascinating Man.

Virtue. unfortunately, does not fascinate. The veriest scoundrel that ever drew breath is apt to be q thousand fold more magnetic than he who, having marked out an ethical path for himself, proceeds, relig- ionsly to follow it.. All women like insinnating manners. They repre- sent, as it were, what garniture of ruilles present on an entree. They give flavor as well as artistic beauty. The fascinating man is always q skilled artist. He must assume, if he have it not, tenderness that never loses sight of itself, and he must continually show the apprecia- tion that presents him always in the light of a suppliant on pended knee. and never as one who demands or expects anything. Nearly all women are vain. and the man who would fascinate must begin by ilattering a woman's vanity. But he must like wise take care that his modus opcr- andi is never discovered or it's ex- istence ever suspected. Otherwise he is lost The courage and inde- pendence born of possession unfortu- nately incite to the reckless express sion of absolute truth, and man who desires to please a woman should never tell the whole truth. Suggest it, play with it, ignore it entirely, but reveal it never! Men of the world understand this. The Latin races are adopts in the art of fasciua- tion. Why? Because they are always lovers, or pretend to be lovers, which in the end amounts to the same thing. Emerson expressed an unal- terable truth when he said, All the world loves the lover. But in order to be lover it is not necessary to rush into vulgar protestation of affec
 tion. A glance of the eye, pres sure of the hand, the particular curve of the lips in smile, the hun dred trivial courtesies that appeal to feminine sympathies, are embodied in the man who fascinates. And when he has once mastered the secret of feminine inclination and the spe- cial qualifications of feminine taste, his way is clearly marked, Be he ugly as satan, he will not fall in personal magnetism. a Week.

The Useful Mexican Donkey.

So far as mans work m Mexico is concerned there is not much to eX- cite admiration or even to arrest attention except for quietness or sin gularity. But in the work of the Divine hand there are many things surprisingly grand and beautiful. The mountains lift their summits high above the plains and valleys and are bathed in pure and mellow atmosphere. l have gazed upon scenes of greater grandeur, but not of greater beauty than those which unfold themselves to the eye from many of the secluded valleys of Northern Mexico. Nor did the pen cil of Claude ever paint anything so lovely as those "bridals of the earth and sky" which one sees repeated there with every rising and setting sun. A principal and artistic feat ure of industrial life in Mexico is the donkey. This patient little animal is seen everywhere and turns his hands, so to speak, to everything. He is the milk-cart and the water cart of the Mexican; he carries ores from the mines; he carries wood piled upon his back until even hls ears are almost invisible and if all the donkeys in Mexico could be animated by q common intelligence and common resolution and should lie down and positively refuse to get up, the effect would be more disas- trous to the country than have been the earthquakes and revolutions of the last five hundred years, -- Phila. delphia Times,

Why Dogs Go Mad.

A citizen of Harrison county, Ind. 7, having learned of the recent mad dog scare in the northern part of that county, has sent gentleman friend living there a receipe for preventing rabies. He claims that if every owner will follow the directions given below there will be no more hydrophobia. The letter is as fol- lows: "All dogs have a small white worm at the root of the tongue, on the under side and immediately lengthwise. Take it out and the dog is safe, 1t can easily be done by taking a common shoemaker 5 awl and inserting it near the middle and pulling it through. have seen it done many times. This is the source of hydrophobia. A Scotch man taught me the secret fifty years ago. He said that in Scotland where the practice was generally fol- lowed, there were no mad dogs. -

Our State Debt.

Some of our Eastern contempora- ries in discussing recently published State debt statistics put the Arkan- sas State debt at SIP ,029, 1000. The figures are wide of the mark. By the census of 1880, the total debt of Arkansas, State, county and munich pal, was only S7 ,03S,000. Its funded debt is now only S2,029, 100, with an unfunded debt of about the same amount. The people of Arkansas have put the State Oh it's feet tinan- cially since the carpet-bag usurpation was overthrown. Not only is the State almost out of debt, but in the recent school election more counties than ever before felt able to vote the full five-mill tax for school purposes. A large share of this money goes for the education of negro children. In spite of all that Republicanism could do to crush it, the State has scarcely fifteenth of the funded debt of Massachusetts. - St. Louis Republic.
