Relieving His Mind by Conscientious
Confession.
One of the old lake captains, who set sail
for the unknown port this summer, sent
word to many of his friends few days be-
fore he died to come and see him, and among
his callers was one who said:
Captain. there is one little matter
wanted to speak to you about before you
YES"
''Since you retired from active life you
have lad a great deal Of time on your
hands"
yes"
And you have told great many stories"
Some of which were not absolutely true.
You had to lie more OF less to keep your
place in the ranks.
''Whatl Have | ever lied ?" asked the old
veteran in the greatest establishment
" Pm afraid you have. Indeed, Il am sure
you have. and hope you have repented Of
this sin along with Others"
When did | ever le?"
Well, when you said You fell overheard
In Lake HGron and swan sixly-one miles"
O." II might have put mile or two on the
Correct distance, because there was no way
to measure it. What other time?"
"When you claimed to have sailed the
schooner Martha across Lake Erie single
handed end alone, with both legs broken"
Didn't do it?''
"Ot course not"
And lied about it?"
"You certainly did, and now ask you to
ease your conscience by a confession"
The Captain was silent for a long time
Then he looked up and said:

even induced me to lie about it, but IN very
sorry. l didn't have both legs broken: it

little Time in searching the sa.chel. he was
rewarded by find OF $500 which Mrs. Lar
rabee had drawn from the Pacific Bank for
the purpose of paying number of bills.
After taking POSSESSION of the coin Mcguire

LIKE A NOVEL.
Hrs. Wood Risked a Fortune
for a Husband.

A complaint was filed in the County
Clerks office yesterday, which shows that
after all it is love which still makes the
world go round, and that even in this pro-
sale era there are women who are willing to
sacrifice temporal advantages on the altar
of affection.
The suit is instituted by Mrs. Carrie
Wool (nee Rosencrantz), who by her act in
this regard shows that when she married
the man of her choice she jeopardized her
share in her mothers 100000 estate.
The history of the litigation reads like a
chapter from an old romance. Mrs. Wood,
by her attorney James Alva Watt, COM
plains that the trustees of her mother
estate seek to deprive of her birthright.
Mrs. Betsy Rosencrantz, mother of Mrs.
Wood. died in this city January 8. 1889,
leaving city lots and brick buildings valued
at about 100000. By a deed of trust she
put everything under the control of Moses
Selig and Moses Rosencrantz, the property
to be managed for the benefit of the heirs
She provided that her daughter Carrie should
have $500 to buy wedding outfit when
the time for marriage came and that
she should have house to cost not less
than $4,000. The condition was enjoined,
however, that if Carrie married any one not
a member Of the Jewish ia e or religion, or
If her claim be not approved by the trustees
named in the deed, she should be disinher-
tied and her share should be divided among
the other heirs.
Mrs Wood in her complaint alleges that
when she first announced her engagement
to MIR. Wood, the trustees gave their con-
sent, and that 1t was not until after she APP
piled to them for the $500 with which to pay
for her wedding outfit that they withdrew
their consent. She fulfilled her promise,
however, and married the man she loved,
whereupon the trustees refused 10 carry out
the provisions of the deed, and she finds
herself compelled to seek for justice in the
courts. She Says that the trustees well
knew that she and Mr.. Wood were associat-
ing together, and that they gave their ell
cuuragrment to the making of the marriage
contract, and even after they gave their full
consent. as before stated, but for reasons
best known to themselves, sought to re woke
that consent after they knew that she and
Mr.. Wood had their affections enlisted, and
that their true faith had been piightrd.
fraudulently pretended that by her mar
rage she forfeited all claim 10 a share of her
mothers property, and that she must 20
without dol ar. She says that her hu Sband
is a man of the Jewish race and religion
that he is worthy young man, to whom n
reasonable objections can he made that they
have been friends and associates from
childhood, and that this association was
known to her mother during her lifetime,
and was by her sanctioned aud encouraged.
In view of all these facts Mrs. Wood asks
the court to declare that she has not forte t
ed her rights by her marriage, and that re-
celvcr may be appointed TO care for the 500
a month revenue which comes in from the
property, 50 that when the residue of the
estate Is to be accounted for all the heirs
may get their just share.

The tribunal at st. Etienne, France, ad-
journed the Investigation of the great catas-
trophe in the mines there. 1t now appears
that the disaster was caused by the crimn
act OF discharged workman, who went
down the pit to get his tools. 1t is alleged
that he took advantage of his being left
unobserved to place quantity of dynamite

Some of the survivors declare that they
