would never meet Crum again, and the

sion of Her Property.
1t is reported that for some weeks past
there has been trouble between Mrs
Kate Gross, of No. 81 Amelia street, and
Mrs. Emma Jaier, her lodger and their
misunderstanding and quarrels reached
climax when the latter caused the
arrest of her landlady and her husband
for disturbing the peace some three
weeks ago. When the case was brought
to trial Police Judge Stanton dismissed
the defendants, and since that time, it is
said that Mrs. Gross has endeavored to
make life burden to Mrs. Jaier. Yes
terday Mrs. Jaier's month was up and
Mrs. Gross spoke about rent coming due,
and as the lodger didn't happen to have
enough ready money to settle with, she
paid Mrs. Gross half in cash and
rendered her promissory note
for the balance, $6. This was
accepted and peace once more
reigned in the household, until Mrs.
Jaier happened to speak about moving to
other quarters. Watching her oppor-
tunity, Mrs. Gross, in the absence of her
iodger, took possession of her property,
which consisted of three trunks, sewing
machine and parlor lamp, and locked
them all up in spare room. When Mrs.
Jaier returned to her room and found
what had been done. she went to the
Police Station, and Officer Wright, of the
Humane Society, was called into requisi-
tion. Last evening he went down to the
house aud interviewed Mrs. Gross on the
question, and at her request went up.

While he was demonstrating with her
about her arbitrary proceeding, an ex-
press wagon drove up to the door, unno-
ticed by Mrs. Gross, and Mrs. Jaier
en- cred the room stealthily and pounced
upon one of her trunks, which she COM
menced to drag out of th room. Mrs. Gross

war followed for some minutes, but
slowly inch by inch Mrs. Jaier gained
the advantage and finally got the box
into the hall. She then dropped her end
of the property and rushing back pounced
upon another trunk, but this time Mrs.
Gross jumped upon her lodger, and
Officer Wright interfered and threatened
to arrest her. Then the same tug of war
was gone over again, until Mrs. Jaier
triumphantly obtained possession of all
her property, which was lifted upon the
wagon and carried away. Then only did

her, and she turned upon the Humane
Officer and he got piece of woman's

She is Finally Recovered by Her
Husband.
Some six months ago there arrived in
this city remarkably pretty brunette
about 20 years of age, named Mrs. Lizzie
Siebel, who came from Council Bluffs
presumably on a visit to her old school
mate, Mrs. Gibbens, who lived with her
husband and family at No. "a Laurel
street. OF her the following story is told :
For some reason best known to herself
the young lady endeavored to forget the
existence of her husband, a well-to-do
cattleman, to whom she had been mar
ried about five years, and at her special
request her friend introduced her
to all friends and acquaintances
as Miss S;ebel. Amongst those
who we're 30 introduced was "Bill"

Notwithstanding the fact that Bill is al

The Paradoxes of Science.

The water which browns US, a fluent
stream, can be walked upon as ice The
bullet which, when fired from musket,
carries death, will be harmless if ground

lzed part of the oil Of roses, so graceful in
it's fragrance-a solid at ordinary temper
atures, though readily volatile-is COM
pound substance, containing exactly the
same elements, and in exactly the same
proportions, as the gas with which we
light our streets. The tea which we daily
drink, with benefit and pleasure, produces
palpitations, nervous remblings, and even
paralysis, if taken in excess; yet the
peculiar organic agent called theme, to
which tea owes its qualities, may be taken
by itself (as theme, not as tea) without
any appreciable effect
The water which will allay our burning
thirst augments it when CONCEALED into

by eating snow" Yet if the snow be
melted it becomes drinkable water
Nevertheless, although, if melted before
entering the mouth, it assuages thirst
like other water, when melted in the
mouth 1t has the opposite effect. To rem

only to remember that ice, which melts
more slowly in the mouth, is very efficient
in allaying thirst.-Blackwood' Maga-

A Funeral in British Honduras.

It was in British Honduras that l frrt
attended velorio, or the ceremony of
watching with a corpse. The family
home consisted of single long and mar
row apartment, rounded at each end, with
earthen floor and roof thatched with guava
leaves. From the cross poles hung few
hammocks, and in the middle of the room,
upon rude bier made of two boards up
held by casks, lay the dead woman, with
a wee infant clasped in her arms The
face of the mother, who could not have
been more than IA years old, was calm
and, peaceful, but that of the baby was
strangely distorted, as if terrified with it's
brief look on life. Fresh flowers were
scattered upon the scarlet blanket that
partially covered the still figures; lighted
candles stood at the head and foot, and
near by sat the sisters and parents of the
dead woman, silent and sad. Inquiring
why the husband and father was not
among the mourners, was carelessly in
formed, as though it was nothing to cause
remark, that la brobraerta (the poor dear
girD had never been welded; and as for
the father-quien sabe? A great crowd
occupied the house Of mourning. laughing
and jesting as though the occasion was
one of rejoicing rather than sorrow.
Many were playing cards. Outside, under
pomegranate tree, refreshments were
spread, and music and uproar resounded
in startling incongruity with the dread
mystery of death. = Cor. Philadelphia

A Hint for Cities,

Nothing could be better than the asso-
citation recently formed in Philadelphia
called the Open Space association, having
for its object the increase of small parks
and other openings in the mass Of houses
as sanitary measure, and also for the
comfort and refinement of the people.
This is better than sending crowds of
children out for open air during a month
of summer. An address before the Mis-
souri, Horticultural society, some years
since, recommended a system allowing for
an opening every fourth of mile in all
streets In this way city would be
thoroughly sunny and at the same time
be provided with shaded spots. The same
plan included drinking fountains in each
opening provided three times day with
ice. Old cities can only be improved.
New cities can be laid out on the better
principles Such cities could not easily
have portions that fall into degraded
physical habits and become both vile AID
unsightly. To reform men we must re-
form homes. York Graphic.

Men Are just as Fad.

A woman, speaking of the attacks made
upon her sex for their methods of hand
ling their skirts or bustles when sitting
down, carrying their parasols, and other
habits, says: 81 think three-quarters Of
such talk is nonsense, | am perfectly
sure that men have just as many marked
habits as women. What can be more
absurd, | would like to know. than to see
man, every time he sits town, fling his
coat tails wide apart? Then. again. that
everlasting twitching at the legs of his
trousers so as to pull them up in folds
above the knees and exposing generally
the not always attractive top of pair Of
shoes, with strings tied in a by no means
picturesque knot. To me one of the re-
pulsive habits is the refolGing up Of q
handkerchief before replacing in the
pocket, which is quite common among
men. | always wonder if the user is
afraid of getting them mussed or only
wants the outside fresh and clean. AS
regards pulling down cuffs so they will
show beneath the sleeve. and similar
tricks, are they not every day sights?"-

Making Fine Grade Candies.

The process of making the cream" is
identical in both wholesale and retail es-
Establishments. Confectioners' sugar Is
first boiled until it becomes a thick and
waxy syrup. 1t Is then turned out On
slabs and allowed to partially cool. In
the retail establishments it is then worked
with wooden paddles until the grain is so
stretched that the mass is resolved into q
soft, snowy compound, ready for the
havors or to be mixed with fruit or nuts.
In the wholesale factories 100 pounds of
clear syrup is turned out on a slab at one
time. When it has cooled enough to work
a candymaker stations himself at either
end. He holds common garden spade.
Together the two workers turn and turn
the hardening sugar until it is white.
Then 1t is packed away in big iron recep-
tacles and covered with heavy, wet cloths
to keep it from hardening,
This cream is the basis of all the finest
grade candies in the market. 1t is in the
manufacture of this cream that dealers
have revolutionized methods and brought
that OF America to the highest standard
in the world. Candy is not made in such
vast quantities in any other land. The
famous confections of the Orient are not
to be compared, either in quality or guam
tity, with those of the United States.
Eastern compounds are largely of the
nougat order and made in small quanti-
ties. Armenian Greeks offer Turkish
paste along State street every day for
sale. 1t is turned out in big cone ex-
actly as it is cooled in the pot. It is sold
in slices. 1t is after this same fashion
that the confections of the east are all
made. French bonbons do not suit the
American palate. They are not distinct
favors as rule. Instead, they are con-
glomeration of favors so mixed as 10

can be attributed neither to fruit nor
fower.-Chicago Herald.

The GallOWs In japan.

To the gallows is an easy transition. as
1t is natural conclusion. In secluded
part of the grounds at Ichigaya there is
q forbidding object, like a great black
box, raised six feet from the earth at the
foot Of long incline cut In the grass. A
sloping walk of black boards leads into
the box at the left hand side. The con-
demned criminal is led up this and finds
himself inside upon the drop. The rope
is adjusted and the cap fitted, and then
at signal the bottom of the box falls
back. Thus the Japanese method is ex-
actly the opposite Of our own, the official
spectators, including couple of privi-
legged reporters, being spared the ghastly
details of the toilet on the scaffold, and
see nothing until an unrecognizable corpse
is suddenly flung out and bangles before
them. Last year this gallows counted
seven for its tale of men.-Tokio Cor.
