HENRY MOORE and Mrs. Norton.
whose elopement from st. Louis and
capture at Topeka last summer, created
such sensation, parted last Thursday.
They had been living for some Time in
New York where Moore was employed
as journalist on morning paper,
which of course kept him at the office
until = or O'Clock every morning.
Some time ago he became suspicious of
his paramour's fidelity to him. Evil
dence soon presented itself, Seeming to
confirm his suspicious. She lied brave
IL and explained it away. In a short
time other and more convincing proofs
of her waywardness turned up, but
tears and entreaties oxercame his an
ger and they settled down once more.
In very short time she gave herself
dead away again, and Moore satisfied
that she was irreclaimably bad deserted
her last Thursday, and will give her ali
the lee way she wants in her headlong
course to infamy and perdition. No
one doubted that such would be end of
the disgraceful escapade last summer
when the guilty pair deserted, the one
wife and children, the other u hus-
band, to lead life of shame and dis.
grace.

BENT MURDOCH says that Senator
Ingalls, added nothing TO his credit
when he secured the appointment of
Dick Walker No matter. He has
so much to his credit already in this
state, that he can afford to do pretty
much as he pleases. The crack Jay
Burton made some time ago demon
strated that fact. When Ingalls, peeled
the hide from Dan Voorhees, and hung
it ON a paline fence, he accomplished Il
greater and more lasting victory for
himself than did the Archangel Michael
when he huIled Lucifer over the ce-
lestiaI hattIements. John j. is solid
in Kansas, and don't you forget it.
He will be reelected. ls Senator
Plumb was the other day, without op-
position. That would be true even
though jay Burton should presume t.
run against him 1t would be difficult
for Senatur Ingalls, To do anything that
would injure his popularity in Kansas
Perhaps there is only one thing that
would do it, and that is to turr
free-trader and seek to cripple or de
stroy the great and prosperous manu-
featuring industries on which Kansa:
prides herself, and in which is founC
the secret of her wonderful growth an'
prosperity. Nothing but that alon
would give Jay Burton the ghost OF ;
chance.

cause of Ireland Alexander Sullivan
of Chicago was tho great mogul of the

was the chairman, had collected and
misappropriated the enormous sum OF

midab!e opposition grew up around

A hotel room clerk must not only
know every room in the house, even to
the kind of furniture, lights, air, etc,
but he must DO a quick, keen judge of
human nature to know just where to as
sign a guest who has never visited the
house before. The skilled clerk rarely
makes a mistake, and in time becomes
such an adept that he knows when a
guest is going to complain about the first
apartment to which he is assigned and
acts accordingly, giving him one'of the
worst rooms in the house, and the sec-
ond time one of the best. The contrast
Is so great that the objector feels fiat
tered and always comes a second time.
There are few veteran hotel clerks who
have not run against the greatest object

panini, who was never known to take

Recently outlines of trees and shrub
berry appeared in a large kettle be-
longing to Mrs. Goode, Of Tocoa, Ga.
Two explanations of what caused them
to appear have been suggested. One
is that the smooth surface of the ket-
tie, from unknown causes, may have
been susceptible to impressions of the
rays of light, the kettle acting as a
camera, and thus the trees and shrub
berry from some distance away were
photographed around the sides of the
kettle. The other suggestion is that
the inside of the kettle may have been
damp, covered by a thin film of water
which froze, and in crystallizing the
minute ice spangles shot in the peculiar
form seen in the kettle, just rs win

of a human being is but fifteen inches

Burns in 1887. Americans who have
been in that country twelve to fifteen
years, and who have known the little

they do not doubt that Pnygn is as old

Perhaps one of the saddest effects of
the late war which yet remain is the
great number of people who are still
missing from their former homes and
their old friends and relatives. For
instance, | had an uncle who came
home shortly after Appomattox. He
arrived about 3 o'clock one afternoon
at his home in kentucky, dismounted
and kissed his wife fondly, walked
about the place for an hour with her,
scarcely speaking and very moody.
Then mounting, remarked: MARY,
I'm going off for a little while; be good
to yourself and the baby until | come
back" and he has never been seer by a
relative since. We have indirectly
heard of him a number of times, but on
going TO the point where he had been
seen he had, invariably. just left. We
traced him TO a point In Dakota,
finally, where he had established quite
a large sheep ranch, but a week be-
fore his nephew got there uncle had
sold at a great sacrifice and left.
Southerners can relate hundreds Of
such cases from personal knowl-
edge. There are secluded regions in
the Ozark country which are inhabited
only by these broken hearted men, now
hermits, self isolated from soci.
ETY. and their relatives. Their fast
nesses seclude many a husband OF q
supposed widow, or father OF children
who have mourned him as dead for
more than n quarter century.-SL

AT the Clifton geological gardens II
lion in the collection had for some
time been tortured by a claw growing
into the flesh Of its left fore paw, but
owing TO the uncertain temper Of the
king of beasts it was not considered
prudent for any one to try and relieve
him. The only way'open TO the keep
ers of the MANNED lion was TO place 1t
in such a position that it could not
turn round and then to seize q happy
moment for the extraction of the claw.
This was done by inducing it to leave
first one cage and then another until
it was confined in one SO small that it
could not spring either TO the right or
TO the left. Then, while its injured
paw was protruded through the bars,
the claw was promptly whipped out
of the flesh, into which it had grown
more than half an inch.-Philadelphia

Women Members of It.


Women Member of Tt
The route from San Diego to the
desert slope on the eastern side of the
partially described in. Wednesdays
Sun, stopped midway at Ballena, 1880
feet above the sea. From this point
the road ascends through a narrow
canyon shaded with ancient oaks,
which 500 open out into a great valley
of surprising beauty. Turning south a
side road leading to San Vicente runs
down n long canyon where some inter
esting people, devotees of the vegeta-
rian cult have made their homes.
They, too, wandered down from Col
ton, a distance of 100 miles or more,
nearly three years ago.
The party comprised Mr.. lie Ba0f,
his wife, and their ward, Miss Hndley,
all from St Louis, Mo. Mr.. LIE
Beuf pushed a large wheelbarrow be-
fore him filled with their possessions,
and the women-notable for their
short hair and bloomer dress-trod
cheerfully along beside him. They
were seeking n location for n home on
government land, and they chose it in
the widest part of the canyon. Mrs.
lie Beufs health had broken down in
kindergarten work at ST. Louis, and
for this cason they came TO the coast
The invalid had found the weight of
ordinary clothing iutolerable, and
both of the women had therefore adopt
ed the bloomer costume, with high
shoes of gray cloth buttoninQ up the
leg instead of the usual trousers. Mr..
lie Beuf went 10 work clearing the
land, and in n short time had stretched
a circular canvas over the saplings for
their dwelling, making it resemble a
bee hive. Linseed oil was rubbed on
the cloth TO make it waterproof. Fur
niture IA constructed of the natural
woods with their bark and moses. A
garden was planted and grain sowed.
Then Miss Hadley found a pocket
in the rocks n little higher up the can
yon, which pleased her, and she filed
a presumption claim TO eighty acres.
A canvas dome also arose on her
clearing, which is now a marvel of
productiveness. Miss Cook, another
vegetarian, came out from Missouri to
assist her. These industrious young
women now have one and "a half acres
in grain, with not a weed on the en-
tire place. They make their own flour.
They have sweet peas, onions, lettuce,
celery, etc, with blackberry bushes
and various other small fruits. They
chiseled ten steps in the granite rocks
leading down TO a spring which breaks
a tissure in the rocks. A cellar built
in the bank contains some 200 bottles
of a peculiar grape cordial, which is
their only drink. 1t is boiled down
without being sweetened, and is con-
sidered n sort of grape cure.
These resourceful people manufact-
ure all their own garments, including
shoes. lie Beuf's garments are some
what like n bathing suit
Several years & n man named
Weidenmiller, also a vegetarian, APP
peared in the canyon, and week before
last he brought Miss Hadley down to
San Diego in the stage, and here they
were married. Miss Cook continues
TO reside with them. The two men
work on the ranches whereabouts as
opportunity offers, while the women
devote their leisure TO books and the

Arc Animals superstitious?

Do animals see ghosts? OF o there
are no ghosts, but that makes no differ
ence. Science and philosophy agree that
1t is not at all improbable that nothing
really exists and that nothing is, except
pe~rturbations of brain cells. Anything
that we may think we see may not, after
all, have any existence-at any rate, it
does not exist as we see 1t. Do animals
know about ghosts and do they think
they see them? In his latest book Sir
John Lubbock undertakes to tell how the
world appears to animals, but he doesn't
enter into the possibilities of superstitions
among dogs and horses, for instance.
Certainly, the world does not appear the
same to the ant that it does to man; and
not quite the same to the dog or the horse,
since the dog and the horse do not laugh.
If we take the conclusions of science re-
specting the development of the intelli-
gence, we ought to be able to believe that
the more intelligent of the lower animals
have superstitions that correspond in
some measure to those of the least intel
ligent human beings.
That many animals reason, draw logical
differences beyond the operation of in
stinct, is pretty well settled. When n
dog or a horse has exhausted all its ex-
perienco IN attempting to account for
certain phenomena, hoes 1t conclude that
the thing Is supernatural or out of the
order of applicable phenomena? Novel
lists tell us about the amazing fear of
dogs and horses ordinarily fearless, when
placed under conditions that excite the
fear of sunersfitiOus nersona Ara there

The Captains Prayer.

Capt. Van Etten is nothing if not SEN
sational. His trip to bismarck overland
on a lecture tour attracted the attention
of the entire country and his vote upon
all measures is given with a thunder clap
s~pontaneity that arouses tho surrounding
country for miles. The captain did not
go to Grand Forks. While the majority
of the Dakota Legislators went whirling
away to the Red River valley he and a
number of the other hard working MEM
bers remained in Bismarck and on Satur-
day held a session which was made
memorable in many ways. Among
events of the day was Capt. Van Etten's
prayer (the official chaplain being alb
sent, which comes to us as follows:
30 Lord, bless this house. OF course
as can be seen by careful observation,
there are not many of us here, the ma
jority having gone on a junketing to
Grand Forks. o Lord, thou knowest
their motives in going. If it is in the
best interests of the country (Which
seems very doubtful thou wilt bless
them, but if it is for the pleasures Of
this world, do with them what seemesi
best. o Lord, ave US all at last
junketers and all, if possible"
This may not be a verbatim report of
the earnest captains prayer, but it is as
the words are reported to us. The cap

Tho Congregation smIIed.

A story that goes back to the meetin'
house in Wrentham is one of q worthy
man named Habbakuk p, n resident of
tho town and a faithful attendant upon
worship, who had beer blessed with four
wives, one after another. Habbakuk
was rigidly orthodox, as his name seemed
to demand, and was always in his pew
on the Sabbath. He sat there in his con-
spicuous pew with No. 4 by his side on
the first Sunday after their marriage. 1t
was n balmy June day, and the zephyrs
from the open window toyed playfully
with the brides white satin bonnet rib
bons and the groom's silken locks. There
was n stranger in the pulpit who had
exchanged for the day with the venerable
Mr.. f., the pastor of the church. After
reading a few Scripture passages the
stranger proceeded to read a notice which
he had found In tho Bible, and which
was IS follows:
"Mr. Habbakuk p desires the pray
ers of the congregation that the death of
his wife may be sanctifed to him for his
spiritual good"
Then, when the congregation was be-
tween s~tupefaction Inc explosion, the
clergyman went on with the services at
a rapid rate. He was at n loss to know
why the congregation seemed to be
throughout the remainder of the service
on tho point of laughter, but ut dinner
Mrs. F, the pastors wife, explained
to him that Habbakuk p sat three
rows from the front in the broad aisle
with his brand new wife, and no had
read an old notice that Mr.. F had
probably been using for n book mark
ever since the death of wife No. 3.-Bos-
