Through Inadvertently kissing a pretty
customer, George Winch, butcher of
Sydney, New South Wales, has come into
fortune. The girl objected to the atten-
ton, and had Winch taken up before the
magistrate, who fined him. The local
newspapers improved the occasion by
preaching several leading articles on hui
man depravity in general, and the miscon-
duct of George Winch in particular. He
woke next morning and found himself
famous, and it was then discovered, owing
to the publicity given TO his name, that he
was missing heir.
One of the most remarkable instances of
patient toll in ornamenting the pages of
book was separating the columns of the
London Polyglet Bible, completed in 1867,
by ruling red lines between the columns of
print on each page. Five red lines were
necessary on each page. These were made
by hand, of course, and called for the ex-
ercise of the greatest skill and care, for a
single blot ruined at least four pages. This

WelI-Bred Girls,


Do you know many well-bred girls Oh,
they can always be told.
A well-bred girl thanks the man who
gives her a seat in the street car and
does it in quiet and not in an ELUSIVE
way.
She doesn't turn round to look after
gamblers or posing actors on the street,
and she doesn't think that her good looks
are causing men to stare at her.
She doesn't wear all her jewelry in the
daytime, and she understands that dia-
mond rings, ear rings and bracelets were
intended for the evening alone.
She doesn't go to supper after the the
alter is over alone with man.
She does not declare that she never
rides in street cars.
She does not accept valuable present
from any man unless she expects to marry
him.
She doesn't talk loud in public places.
She doesn't shove or push to get the best
seat, and she doesn't wonder why in the
world people carry children in the cars and
why they permit them to cry.
She does not speak of her mother in a
sarcastic way, and she shows her the loving
Difference that is due her.
She doesn't want TO be man and she
doesn't try to initiate him by wearing stiff
hats. smoking cigarettes and using an oc-
casionai big, big D.
She doesn't say she hates women, and
she has some good true friends among
them.
She doesn't wear boots without their
buttons or frock that needs mending.
She doesn't scorn the use of the needle,
and expects some day to make clothes for
very little people who will be very dear TO
her.
That's the well-bred girl she's the sort
that you want for your wife, and the one
who will not run into the D. c., but who
Will be faithful through sickness and
through health, through sorrow, and if
need be, through shame; who viii never
waver in her love, and in whom the heart
of her husband may safely trust.-Bab.

BASEBALL LAW.
Actors and Baseball Players Governed
by the Same Law.


by the Same Law.
New YORK, November 2d.-John B.
Day, President of the New York Club, has
issued a card, ITO the Press" He says:
soon after the announcement in the
public press that the Brotherhood of Ball
PLAYERS contem p ated severving their con
nection with the National League, the New
York Club received a communication from
John l. Roger, counsel to the League, to-
the effect that the League club would hold
an option ON the services of such players
as would be reserved for the season next
ensuing Ne irs RI ed our &C unsel to lay
the Who're matter before the eminent law
firm ofEvarts, Choate & Beaman and Sc 'ure
their opinion"
Egaris, Chole & Beaman in their
opinion say: 1.-The principles of the law
which, in our opinion, should govern the
Courts in deciding the right of parties un-
der this conirac. are the same as those that
have been applied by the Courts in deter
mining the obligations of actors under their
contracts with managers of theaters, for
baseball clubs stand in the same relation to
baseball players employed by it that the
manager of tbeater stands to the actors
employed by him.
"There are many cases, as you may know,
in cur New York Courts where actors and
actresses, while under contract with one
manager, have been er oined from playing
elsewhere If baseball players reserved
for the season of 1890 by the New York
Club. under its contract with them,
should organize themselves into new club
and play as members, that club would
be in relation to their contract with the
New York club Just as much as if they con-
tracted to play with some clue not existing,
and in either case we think the Courts
ought to enjoin them from playing with
any club, except the New York club

SERIOUS SIUTINY.
The Mutineers Will all Probably be Shot
"A Nice Reflection

"A Nice Reflection.
CITY OF MEXICO, November 2d.-A Sc
rious mutiny occurred among the escort on
the up train from Vera Cruz on Tuesday
evening. A corporal and four privates at
tackled their superior officers, severely
wounding the lieutenant and killing the
sergeant. The object of the mutineers,
who were forced recruits, seems to have
been to stop the train and escape.
When the train was almost due at Solte-
pee, the mutineeIs climbed on the engine
with view of forcing the engineer to halt.
The engineer and tiremen were heavily
armed. Seeing that they would probably
fail, the five ringleaders jumped from the
tram, and one was run over and cut in two.
The other four were more or less injured,
but escaped. On arriving at Soltepec de.
tschment of the rural guards surrounded
the car and disarmed the remaining mutt
neers. Two were taken to the City of Mex
leo. 1t is understood that the men who es-
capped have since been captured and brought
to this city 1t is probable that the whole
party will be shot.

Dewitt Talmage ASKS Tor a Large Con
tribution from st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS (Mo), Novem Der 2d.-H. H.
Culver, millionaire manufacturer of St.
Louis, is prominent in religious circles,
and last summer, when Dewitt Talmage
was in this city, strong friendship sprang
up between them. When the Brooklyn
Tabernacle was destroyed by fire Mr.. Tai
mage telegraphed Mr.. Culver, asking a con-
tribution of 100000, in consideration of
which he offered to name the new struct-
ure the Culver Tabernacle. He pictured
the immortality this would give the
name OF Culver, and the glory
which would result to the million
aire Christian This was a temptation
held out 10 the millionaire, who, whisper
ing he would never consent, consented. His
friends were Mortified that their friend
should give away 100000 when the money
was so badly needed in st. Louis. 1t was
too much. They made a strong attack
and persuaded the millionaire to give up
his desire of glory and Immortality and
keep his ducats p 1t was with signs that he
relinquished his ambition and desires and
wired his friend that he could not grant
the re1uest. A reporter called on Mr..
Culver to-day and he confirmed the story
as above related. He even went so far as
to exhibit the kilograms.

ton with Prince Lobanoff, the Russian
ambassador, through whom he learned
that the Gar had resumed his policy oil
opposition to any form of settlement whloh
excludes Russia's claim to the right to Sc.

The communication amounted to a veto
from the Gar of Count Kalanokys project
for the recognition of Prince Ferdinand as
the ruler of Bulgaria and implied also q
definite rejection of Bismarck's.
In official circles the conviction prevails
that the Chancellor will henceforth aban-
don all Efforts to conciliate the Gar.
