LONDON, Dec. 80 -O'Shea's sensational
move TO drag Parnell into the divorce court
was not unexpected He has been threaten
ing TO do it ever since the commission ad-
journed. He has now filed petition asking
for divorce from his wife ON the ground Of
her infdelity, naming Charles Stewart Par
nell as the correspondent In his pleadings
O'Shea simply Furnishes up the charges he
made two years ago about Parnells intimacy
with his wife and supplements it with speci-
ic accusations up TO last month, based on
the report Of a private detective employed
by him. He names a house near Regents
park which Parnell was in the habit of
visiting, and also prominent house on the
Esplanade, Brighton, He merely sues for
divorce, making no claim for damages.
o'shea May Prove His Case.
Since O'shea testified before the Parnell
commission that Parnell has not recognized
him, it has been known that he was waiting
for revenge on his former leader. But what
ever may be the result Of the trial, the case
has been discounted 90 often that the effect
on Mr.. Parnell's personality viii not be dis
astrous II is possible, however, that O'Shea
will be able TO prove his assertions, since IL
is known that Parnell made his home with
the O'Sheas for many years. and there he
used TO retire from the world, his address
being know u TO only few Of his particular
friends
O'shea Must Have known.
But OShea is not a man whose word Is
considered Of any account So long as he
was a member OF the Parnellite party be
was not averse 70 counting and allowing
favors TO the leader, and If any relationship
did exist between Parnell and Mrs O'Shea
it was generally thought to be with the con-
sent Of the husband Mr.. Parnell has so far
never spoken a word on the subject, and un-
til he is heard it will be well to postpone
Judgment upon him. He has never been
considered an immoral man, and he would
be thought the last man in the world to
betray a friend. OShea's disloyalty 20 the
Irish party, from which he was virtually
expelled, has long been a matter OF notori-
ETY., and when he gave testimony as a witt
ness in The Times forgery case against Par
nell he brought upon himself the scorn Of
Englishmen and Irishmen alike,

HOW TO EAT BANANAS.

Ordinarily in this country bananas are
eaten raw, says the American analyst, but
in tropical countries, while the natives
eat them in like fashion, more delicate
and, it is said, more healthy mode of
eating them is in vogue. The soft, ripe
fruit, eaten to a cream with sufiiciency
of Amontillado sherry, forms a delight
full appetizer, and is the favorite way of
eating the banana in certain parts of the
West Indies and of the African coast.
Taken in moderation at first rising in the
morning, bananas are said to be preser-
vative of health, and in this respect are
in marked contrast with other tropical
fruits, which are detrimental, rather than
otherwise, to continued good health. An
intoxicating drink is made from the ba-
mana, and on account of its astringent
qualities is of considerable medical value.
In Africa, and probably in other places
also, the banana and the kindred tree,
the plantain, are in q very large measure
the sole dependence for the food sup
ply of natives. The banana, when
ripe, contains "A per cent. water; of
the 26 remaining parts, 20 are sugar and
two gluten or fiesh-forming substance.
1t is not in itself perfect food, but re-
quires the addition of some other nitro
genous material, as lean meat. The pull
of the banana, but more often of the plan
tain, is ofttimes squeezed through sieve
and formed into loaves, which, when ripe,
will keep a very long time. In dried
state it has the resemblance of bread,
both in taste and composition, but the
ripened pulp is saccharine, and not farm
aceous. At Panama the rarest and most
delicious of the banana species has its
home. Small and ruddy in color, il
is popularity known as the thumb banana,
and on account of its delicate flavor it is
! priced even there. 1t does not beal
transportation we'll, although it. may often
be found in the markets of Chicago and
New York. Crossing the isthmus by the
| line that connects Panama with Aspin
wall, the natives of the villages along thu
route make habit of coming to the train
decked in primitive fashion, with gar
lands of flowers around their necks ant
hewers in their hair, and disposing of the
| fruit. Here the thumb banana may b'
eaten in its perfection.

The Half.Moon of the Finger Nail.

The half-moOn of the finger nail, which
is esteemed so great beauty, if carefully
attended to, will increase in time, and
even where it has been almost obliterated,
will grow to be very beautiful. Many
people think that pushing the skin back
from the nail will show it more, and that
by this practice the delicate hem, as we
call it, which holds the upper and under
skins together, is totally destroyed, and
the ends of the fingers have an ugly yell
low growth encircling the nail instead of
the delicate framework which nature in
tended. Then the way in which the nail
is cut can totally change the shape of the
fingers. By cutting the nails close at
the sides and keeping the corners from
adhering to the skin, hang-nails can be
avoided. Where the nails are thin and
inclined to break, frequent oiling is nee
essary, and the nails should never be
polished except when some oily substance
is used beside the powder. This keeps
the nails more pliable, and no matter how
thin they are, if properly treated, they
are no more liable to break than richer
ones. Another thing that is bad for the
nails is polishing them too roughly
They should be lightly touched and not
rubbed until they become heated. This
is one cause of white spots coming on the
nail and marring its beauty. Medical

irrigation In Dakota.

The United States Senate Irrigation
Committee, of which Senator Stewart OF
Nevada is Chairman, held session at
Sioux Falls, Dakota, in which statements
were submitted by gentlemen interested
in irrigation. The principal speaker was
Professor Lewis Maclouth, President OF
the South Dakota Agricultural College
at Brookings.
There were hundreds of artesian wells,
he said, in the valley of the James River,
each including a large flow of water from
an average depth of 1000 feet. The
power thus obtained was now utilized to
run steam presses, electric-light dynamos,
mills and factories. An inexhaustible
supply of water and of water power could
therefore be had in this valley by an in
crease in the number of artesian wells.
Some of the wells already flowing gave
out 1000 gallons minute. If the yearly
dow of those wells could be saved and
stored in reservoirs, to be used as needed,
so as to supply in the growing season the
deficiency in the natural rainfall, it would
add enormously to the development OF
agriculture and turn I he entire James
River Valley into a luxuriant garden.
One thousand such wells, Professor Mac.
louth says, would add S400, 900, 600 to
the value OF the land in that region.
The committee saw the working of an
artesian well that supplies Water and wa,
ter power to this city. -Four large hose
pipes were connected with the street
hydrants, and threw into the air stream
of water eighty feet high.-Me,O Yorl

this had embittered him against the sex.
Then, with humility and emotion she
had not suspected in him, he thanked
her for her frankness in telling him when
first they met just what she thought of
him, and so letting him see the wretched
existence he was leading. There was
trembling to his voice and tears in the
widows eyes when he had finished.
''Mr. Pinkleberry," she said, 81 have
deceived you, though not Intentionally
on that point-I am a widow"
1t was unquestionably shock, but
Mr.. Pinkleberry stood it bravely.
"No matter for that" he said; 81 am
q widower."
''Mr Pinkleberry, you once said-and
not long ago, either-that all widows
should be burned on funeral pyre."
Mr.. Pinklebery looked confused for
moment. Then bright idea suddenly
struck him.
''But did never hear you say that the
death penalty ought to be passed on all
unmarried men?"
1t came to the widows turn to be non
plussed, and she was really embarrassed.
Recovering herself with something of a
struggle, she said: "Before l had ever
seen you made VOW that would ex-
ert all my endeavors to lead you on until
you made an offer of yourself to me, and
that then / would ignominiously reject
you. / wanted to prove to you that
widows were not the worst of their sex
that wealth was not the bait to catch a
heart-and that must be wooed and won
with love alone. Knowing all this, dare
you love mel"

'I made a vow to reject you and l must
keep it."
''May suggest a compromise. Vio-

To Identify a Diamond.

A ready way of identifying a diamond
is given by an expert Prick needle
hole through a card, and look at it through
the doubtful stone. If it is spurious, two
holes will be seen distinctly on the card /;
if it is diamond only one hole will be
visible, for there is no other stone at all
resembling the diamond but that gives
a double reflection. This property is also
made use of for determining an uncertain
stone. If the finger is placed behind it,
and looked at through the stone with Il
magnifer, the grain of the skin will be
plainly visible if the stone is not a dia
mond, but otherwise, it win not be dis
tinguished at all. A diamond in a solid
setting may be distinguished in the same
way; if genuine, the setting at the back
cannot be distinguished, but if a false
stone, eitherths foil or the setting may
be plainly aesAl ~-..- - ., Aza.-.--s

A FouR-LEAF CLOVER

Lying 'twixt the musty pages
OF book with time-worn cover,
Mingling with the thoughts Of sages, =
Is spray of four-leaf clover.
Years have not effaced it's tinting,
And mayhap its mystic powers
Are as when the sunlight glinting,
Gave IL life in summer hours.
Did the hand of some fair maiden,
Dancing in loves giddy mazes,
Pluck thee, whilst the breezes laden,
Whispered of the envious daisies?
All, 'tmay be some woman broken,
Grieving DER life's empty measure,
Grasped thee as living token
OF some heeting, phantom pleasure.
Some one plucked thee in thy beauty,
Mystic fruit Of spring-time olden,
Some one who in fields of duty,
Garners now in autumn golden.
Still the yellow sunlight cleaning,
Gilds the bloom where wild bees hover
Other loves mayhap are dreaming
Over sprays of living clover.

LULU AND LITTLE BEE

''Lulu played two summers.
Little Bee, one"-
Such the tender legend -
That was traced upon stone
In a bramble-braided corner
OF graveyard, gray and lone,
Near the old home of my childhood,
In the darling days a-gone-
'Lulu played two summers,
Little Bee, one"
was but boyish stroller
OF the fields when first read
The quaint and fearful record
On that tablet TO the dead;
1 have passed the chiseled marbles
Stretched skyward to the sun,
To muse upon the meaning
OF the mystic lines that run;
"Lulu played two summers,
Little Bee, one"
did not understand it then,
But now It's all so clear,
God knows my foolish fancy needs
No cold interpreter;
o, poet-mother never bard
That ever breathed has spun
A strain of sweeter pathos
Than your poor heart has done
Lulu played two summers,
