A very enjoyable surprise party was
given at the residence Of L. A. Colum-
bus Monday evening in honor Of Mrs.
Columbus birthday. The surprise had
been concocted by her daughter, Miss
Libbie, and was complete success,
Mrs. G. being entirely unsuspicious of
any such design until the parlor was
getting pretty well filed with ladies
who apparently dropped in" to make
informal calls. The evening was occu-
pied with various amusements until the
cloth was laid for refreshments, after
which more amusements until late
hour, when all retired with hearty
good wish for many more like occasions
for Mrs. Columbus.

A Queer World This, :,

A lawyer and on editor stood on a street corner in an Ohio town and saw a man murdered in cold blood. The murderer is rich man, and after committing the deed he said 10 the lawyer and editor; "Here is $l ,O00 for each of you, defend me before the court and the people for the crime l have committed"
 They took the money and deFended him in their own way and according to their own profession--the editor through his paper, and the lawyer through his mouth.
 The murderer. through their joint efforts, was acquitted.
 But see the difference mark the re- suit.
 The people said The editor is a scoundrel. and did so for pay. Lo we will stop his paper, and no longer patronize him." The paper was stop ped, the editor ruined financially. and reduced to a pauper.
 But of the lawyer the people said; He Is an able man. deeply learned in the law, and deserves great credit for having obtained the acquittal of a man guilty of murder. We will give him our law business, and pay big fees They made him judge. and as such he sent his partner. the editor to the workhouse. aud said he was q bad man. and should not only be de- prived of the means of a living, but punished. We don't indorse the nc, of an editor in laboring for what is wrong or against what is right for money but how about the lawyer ?

Some dis tance to the northward of tho batL house was the dry basin of an old hot spring in which there had been nc water for fifteen years. This basin was about twelve feet deep ami nearly a rod square. Mir. Murphy caused hole to be drilled in the bottom of il to the depth of some twelve feet He then inserted pipe into the hole, in the bottom of which were placed sticks of giant powder When the charge was fired it shook the whole coantry- and in an instant coiaun of water foot in diameter was shot upward tc. a height of about sixty feet
 For several minutes there was sccn a magnificent geyser, from the top Oi which, umbrella-like, fell a hundred sprays of steaming water The col utuu oi WHloF was suot up "itu Tcas roaring. and immense volumes oi steam were given of from it.

 Mother stopped me there. hesitated, glanced anxiously at my eager face, and said. with a sigh
 II dare say the doctor will scold me but 1t will do you less harm to hear the truth at once than to lie there racking your brains in torture of suspense.
 "Yes, yes--tell me all ! Estelle is gone. you say ?"

Always a Woman in the Case

Always Woman in the Case
 The best Of men develop unexpected mental twists sometimes in their lives. generally after they have passed the middle term of life, says writer in the Doctor. Able lawyers. doctors, teachers bralny men all of them
 suddenly declare in favor of spiritual ism, Buddhism. or some other crank ism, exhibiting q belief in the shallow and absurd that no one knowing their former lives would believe them guilty of. Generally the wish is father 10 the deed is an unexpected sense. and the desire 10 accomplish a certain re- suit leads the enthusiast to believe that is actually accomplished. The death of a dearly beloved relative and the heart rending yearning to bridge over tho separation in some way, have unsettled many minds on single point and lead them to accept the bosh of spiritualistio sharpers. In others the sexual impulse Is the leading motive, aud the victim, most frequently man. Is caught in the tolls of some volump- tuous '.pricstess. It Is curious that the male .'scarcher." or whatever he is. called, who hangs with brca,hless interest upon the communications from the departed, seldom receives them through medium of his own sex.

The domestic architecture Is as sim pie. as trausitory. as il it symbolizod the life of man. says a writer speaking Of life Tn Japan. You can see it all in the drawings. in the lacqucrs, nnd it has recently been treated complete ly in the charming book of Professor Morse. Within. the Japanese house Is simplicity itself; all is framework. and moving scenes instead of wall. No accumulations; no bric-a-brac-- Any lady's drawing room with us will contain more odds and ends than all l have yet seen together in Japan. The reserved placs cf honor. a sort of niche in the wall, the supposed scat of m ideal guest, has upon it' bench some choice image on stand or vase with elegant disposal of flowers or plants, and above it the hanging roll with drawing or inscription. Perhaps some other inscription OF verse. or a few words on tablet upon sone cross beam. and perhaps small folding screen.
 
 Otherwise all works of art ara put aside in the areproot storehouse, to be brought out ou occasions. The wool work is as simple us 1t can bs--occa- sionally. some beautiful ioinery; al- ways. when it can be afforded. cxquis- ito workmanship; and. abov, all. ex- quisite cleanliness.
