would Not Prosecute.

The charges against Billy Red, the black
loon-keeper on Lstreet, of threats against
life and drawing a deadly weapon, were
dismissed yesterday in the Police Court at
the instance of the prosecuting witnesses. A
cobble-stone was exhibited in the police
office, showing where it had been broken
in two against Reds breast, having been
hurled thereat by the Sullivan-ike arm OF
Jim Hall, the colored ex.slegger whom
Turner did up so thoroughly for the editi-
cation of some registering members OF the
last Legislature. The presumption is that
if the stone had hit Mr.. Red on the head it
would have been shattered into fragments.

gible HARM" said Harris, the tobac-
conist.
'lnhaling the smoke, though, is a
very different thing. Let even the
most inveterate smoker try this, and
he will be convinced. Let him smoke
an ordinary cigarette while walking,
and at some distance from a meal,
inhaling the smoke well into the
bronchial tubes. Then if, before he
has finished his cigarette, he does not
find his head grow dizzy, or his heart
begin to thump, or his fingers tingle,
l shall be quite ready to congratulate
him on the possession of an excellent

to an impression on the termination
of the vagus, or whether the active
principle of the tobacco is absorbed
and carried straight to the heart in
the blood current, l shall not under

They were walking under an old
building that was undergoing re,
pairs. The sun shone almost vertic-
ally upon the crowded thoroughfare
and seemed to drink up eagerly the
moisture from the water-soaked pave
ment.
"Grindstone," said Kiljordan, "is
this"
But the question was not complet-
ed. A fragment of brick from the
top of the building fell upon his head
and without a groan fell to the
ground insensible. He was taken to
his home, and for weeks he lay be-
reft of sense and motion. His friend
watched faithfully BY his bedside. A
consultation of surgeons was held,
and it was decided that an OPERA
ton must be performed to relieve
the brain from the pressure of a frac-
tured portion of the skull. This was
done, and the eager watchers were
gladdened by the announcement
that the delicate task had been sue
cessively accomplished. Grindstone

A Grand Dukes Tr:a .ssic Sorry,

The car of Russia's second broth
er, the Grand Duke Alexis, now near
ing his 10th year, isnot married and
will probably 60 unmarried to his
grave. Few persons recollect or
realize the conjugal tragedy, that
marked the early years of his intelli-
gent and handsome prince. He fell
in love, long years ago, with young
lady attached to the household of
his mother, and, like an honorable
man, he made the woman that he
loved his wife. The fact of this mar
rage came to the knowledge OF his
father, who at once caused the young
couple to be separated by the full ex-
ercise of his despotic authority. The
grand duke was sent off on ayoyage
round the world, his marriage was
annulied and his wife compelled by
threats of Punishment to Siberia and
total separation from her child, q
boy of extraordinary beauty and en-
gaging qualities, to consent to a sec
ond union with an obscure physician.
By this measure all possible reunion
with her royal husband was rendered
impossible. The subsequent marriage
of Alexander III to the Princess Dol.
gourouki, though only morganatic
one, might, you will think, have
taught him little human feeling
toward his son, and that sons wife
and offspring. In this tragic story,
it is said, is to be found the true
reason why the Grand Duke Alexis,
though legally unmarried. has re-
fused all negotiations for a royal al
lance. After the marriage of his
younger brother, the Grand Duke
Paul, he will be the only single one
among the brothers of the reigning
czar.-Paris Cor. st. Louis Post Dis

There is humor to us in the following

SOapstone and Its Uses,


A writer in a London journal calls
attention to the unappreciated uses
and preventative qualities of soap
stone, a material, hesays, which pos
sesses what may be regarded as ex-
traordinary qualities in withstand
ing atmospheric influences, those
especially which have SO much to do
with the corrosion of iron and steel,
and from experiments made it issaid
that no other material is capable of
taking hold of the fibre of iron and
steel SO readily and firmly as this.
In China soapstone islargely used for
preserving structures built of sand
stones liable to crumble from the eff
feet of the atmosphere; and the COW
ering with powdered soapstone in
the form of paint on some obelisks
in that country, composed of stcne
liable to atmospheric deterioration,
has been the means of preserving
them intact for hundreds of years.

Weatherfurd CTex) Constitution. Junca
A reporter OF the Constitution having
learned that Mr.. L. NJ. Frey had received
the cash ($5, o00) on ticket 3S,S47, which
he held in the Louisiana State Lottery,
and OF which he made mention at the time
OF the drawing called upon Mr.. Frey for
conformation OF the report. Mr.. Frey
cheerfully did so, and added that the ticket
was collected by the First National Bank
OF this city for him without exchange. We
have often wondered il the reports OF the
character OF men who have hitherto drawn
prizes in the Louisiana State Lottery
were as claimed, these prizes always APP
pearing by the newspaper reports to fall
into the hands OF honest, handwriting
and deserving men. II they are to be
judged by Mr.. Frey they have all certainly
deserved the prizes, for there is no more
industrious, enterprising and deserving a
man in Weatherford than L. NJ. Frey, the
jeweler. Mr.. Frey has only been in Wealth
erford short time, but by strict atten.
tion to business, honest work and iudicious
advertising in The Constitution and other
home papers, he has built up the largest
custom OF any jeweler in the city.

The Longest Law Case.

Up to thepresent time there are 49,
900 folios of testimony in the case of
Rosalie Butler against the Stewart
will. Printed, it will make 10 volumes
of 700 pages each. There never has
been will contest in this country in
which the evidence was so volumin-
Gus, and yet the proponents intro
duced only six witnesses, who all
testified briefly to one fact. Although
Judge Hilton's counsel profess de-
sire to have the cases disposed of
speedily, that is, within three or four
years, yet the Indications are that it
will pass into legal history as anoth-
er interminable case, with u goodly
share of the property in the hands OF
the lawyers. More delicate legal
questions have already arisen than in
any will case ever liiore the courts
of this country. Whether the true
story of the causes shat led lonely,
innocent Mrs. Stewart to make her
peculiar testament will ever be di.
vulged is another question which
time alone can answer.-New York

The Ghost of Guiteau.

Guiteau still fingers at the District
Jail, says Washington letter. That
is what the superstitious prisoners
say, for they claim that they see him
every night, and if you were to bring
any amount of testimony to contra
dict them they would still adhere to
their theory that the assassin stalks
around the corner every night. The
cell in which he was located when
Sergt. Mason shot at him has been
unoccupied ever since. The bunk has
been removed and the apartment is as
bare as it was left by the builders.
The marks of the soldiers bullet are
still plainly to be seen. The missile
entered the window of the cell at
slight angle and struck the wall op-
posite to that upon which the MUIR
derer's bunk was located, from which
pointit glanced and f1attened against
the wall in the rear. Had Guitean
been standing at the window the bull
let could hardly have missed him.
Gen. Croker, the warden of the Jail,
says he has great trouble in getting
prisoners to remain content in any
of the cells in which Guiteau was con-
fined. The assassin, after being shot
at by Sergt. Mason, was confined in
cell in the opposite corridor. the
same being separated by a brick
partition, and, notwithstanding the
fact that SO many years have
elapsed since it was graced by the
wretched occupant, every prisoner
knows which was Guiteau's cell and
begs not to be confined therein. The
ghost of the assassin, SO the prison
ers say, roams about at all hours oil
the night, and the guards are fire.

Imaginary Diseases.

Some persons are continually i'm
agining that they have this or that
disease, or that they are likely total
victims to one or another OF the ills
which flesh is heir to. This ispartic-
ularly the case with children of ner-
vous, sensitive or morbid natrre.
The injury done by such imaginary
troubles to a growing boy or girl is
by no means insignificant. They de-
range the proper functions of the
body and have worse, end perhaps
more lastlrg effect, Upon the mind,
turning it from tine healthy channels
in which it ought to move, and CEN
tering it morbidly upon self. The
person in this condition imagines
that there is some trouble with his
heart or some other organ of the
body, and straightway he begins to
watch and exaggerate every slight
pain or unusual feeling that may oc-
cur in the region where he supposes
the trouble to be located. Every
muscular twitch in that locality is
regarded as the sure indication of
disease. Unless such a condition of
affair is broken up, the whole physic-
al and mental growth will be inn
paired. BY taking certain amount
of care at the proper time, the
trouble may be largely. ifnot wholly,
avoided. In the first place. children
ought to hear and know almost
nothing of disease. Later in life the
knowledge may be valuable to them,
but when young their proper func-
tions in life is to grow up healthy in
mind and body, and to this end the
child must be cared for and watched
over. A blind knowledge of the dis
eases incident to mankind is to him
only a bugbear, not an assistance,
as it may become when he is old
enough to appreciate cause and eff
feet. 1t is not necessary that young
children should know that they have
such organs as heart, lungs and kid
neys. They may be taught hygiene
to any extent desired, but anatomy
should wait until later in life. If the
trouble has already begun, the best
thing to do is to lead the thoughts
of the young person away from him
self by getting him interested in some
project. 1t is surprising
how those imaginary ills disappear
when the mind has something healthy
and interesting upon which to fix it's
attention. II may be necessary in
some cases to call in a physician to
set the sufferers mind at rest, but |
in general it is not best to seem to |
recognize any reason for worriment. |
The mind can be easily turned into q
proper channel by providing the nee
essary employment for it.
There is suffering enough to BE Ell !
1ured in this world without borrow
ng It. A mind joyous and free from
anxiety, and occupied continually in
healthy directions, has vast power
in keeping the body free from disease.
Such a mental condition, joined to
temperate and careful habits ofliving,
has brought thousands to q green
old age.-American Agriculturist.

GOLDEN ROD.

4 golden rod sweet golden rodi
Bride of the autumn sun;
Has he kissed thy blossoms this mellow
morn,
And tinged them ono by one?
Did the crickets sing at the christening,
When, in his warm embrace,
He gave thee love from the fount above,
And beauty, and cheer; and grace?
He brightens the asters, but soon they fade
He reddens the sumach tree;
And the clematis loses its snowy bloom
But he's true as truth to thee.
Scattered on mountain-top or plain,
Unseen by human eye,
He turns thy fringes to FURNISHED gold
By loves sweet alchemy.
And then, when the chill November comes
And the flowers their work have done,
Thou art still unchanged, dear golden rod
Bride OF the autumn sun!
