An Old Norseman City.

Great interest was excited last No.
vember among archeologists, by the
announcement of Prof. Horsford, OF
discovery of the site Of the ancient
and traditional city of Norumoega'
which he claims was founded by the
Northmen, about 1000 a. D., or near
ly five hundred years before the voy-
age of Columbus. The site claimed IS
near Watertown, Mass, a few miles
west of Boston, in the valley OF the
Charles River. Prof. Horsford says
that there are relics Of the Northmen
on every square mile of the basin OF
the Charles. AS evidence of this, he
pointed to a canal, walled on one side
for a thousand feet along the west side
of Stony Brook, and to the dry canal
near Newtonville. He has found re-
mains of canals, bitches, deltas, boom
dams, ponds, ishtrap, dwellings, walls,
and amphitheatres. The evidence
tending to prove the discovery and
occupation of the region around Mas
sachusetts Bay long before the date
usually assigned to the discovery of
this continent, is constantly growing
stonger, and there seems to he little
reason to doubt that the "Ninland
| 50 well known to the Morse adventur-
ers was a part of the country rediscov-
cred in later centuries.

Welded to her Ninth Husband.

SHELBYvILLE, IND, Feb. 17.-Mollie
Corwin, noted as a much-married wo-
man, was welded here to-day to her
ninth husband. His name is George
Cusick. Six Of his predecessors are still
living. Mollie's first appearance as a
blushing bride was in 1867, and she has
been reappearing in the same role,
minus the blushing, at intervals Of
from two to four years ever since. She
has been no respecter of persons in her
eager hunt fora satisfactory life partner.
The high and low, rich and poor, far
mer and townsman, haveall been tried
and found wanting, but she has shown
no sign Of letting up in her pursuit of
an ideal husband. Probably no woman
in Indiana knows more of Divorce
Courts than Mollie Corwin Cusick,
who is passably fair, not fat, and fully
forty.

The Little Men of Africa.

The Akkas are described by DR.. Jun
ker as the only voluntary nomads Of
the Central African regions. They
construct their little cone-shaped grass
hunts in the shelter of the trees
of the woods, and live in dis
trict as long as the chase lasts. They
prefer to abide among some tribes and
avoid others. The rulers welcome them
and they, being practiced archers, and
cunning warriors, are employed in the
invasions of tile territories of neighbor-
ing tribes. They possess no industry,
and buy even their arrowheads in
exchange for meat, the produce Of the
territories of neighboring tribes. They
possess no industry, and buy even their
arrowheads in exchange for meat, the
produce OF the chase. They are timid
and suspicious, and DR.. Junker only
once saw about one hundred and fifty
of them together. They cannot prop
erly be described as dwarfs, but only as
relatively very small men.

Poisoned by Her Gloves.

The Warsaw Courier reports singu-
lar fatality which occurred a few days
ago in that city. A young Jewess
from Cleft was visiting her friends in
the Polish capital, who gave a.ball in
honor of their handsome young kins-
woman. The latter purchased for the
occasion a pair of long Danish gloves.
While dancing the young lady felt a
pain in her left wrist, which became
suddenly infamed and swollen. 1tap-
pears that while making her toilet she
had slightly pricked her wrist with a
pin. A medical examination showed
that the young lady was suffering
from carbuncle and blood poisoning,
contracted from the glove, which the
doctors declare to have been made from
the skin of an animal suffering from
carbuncle or anthrax. Notwithstand-
ing the various means adopted by the
doctors to save their unfortunate pa
tient she died in forty-eight hours in
great agony. The fatal gloves were
purchased in fashionable Warsaw
shop.

Fortune il, a Hole.

An old farmer in the Granite State
one Sunday morning started to wind
up his great silver watch and found
that the key was filled with dirt. Being
unable to dig the matter out with a
pin the farmer drilled a hole in the key,
and with single breath blew all the
dust out. Then he sat down to think
and within month had patented that
hole. Today IN Lebanon, \. H, there
is large factory running by electric
power, wherein are manufactured daily
thousands and thousands Of watch
keys of every possible size: shape and
design. Each one Of these keys con-
tains the hole which has been patented
by the farmer. The latter has already
made fortune. =

Hastings Paid 1t.
Philadelphia Inquirer. ]


General Hastings tells an excellent
story on himself. The incident occurred
in Johnstown while he was in COM
mand of the place after the great flood.
One day a man came into the head
quarters and wanted to see ''the Gene
raj"
:'What can do for you, my man"'
asked Hastings.
"Weli, sor, live down to Morrell-
ville," he said, "an' me cellar is full of
mud and water, an the children are all
down with the sickness, an won't ye
have the place cleaned out?"
"Certainly l WILL" said the General.
"An' whin will ye tend to it?"
'This afternoon"
The General kept his word. He was
almost constantly in the saddle, and
early in the afternoon he rode to Nor
relIville, two or three miles down the
Conemaugh, and after good deal of
difficulty found the house. The appli-
cant for relief was waiting.
"Tve come to look at that cellar"
said the General. "If you will hold my
horse few minutes I'll run in and see
what can be done"
The cellar was in most filthy condi-
ton, filled with the debris of the food.
He went down the stairs as far as he
could go, took note of the surroundings,
and the same day sent a gang OF men
to the place and put the house IN good
condition once more.
The days wore by and at last the
time came when, his work over, he
was to bid farewell to Johnstown.
There was an immense throng at the
little station to see him off. Men were
cheering him and women were crying
over him. A delegation Of working
men from the mills presented him with
a wreath of flowers, to whcih was
attached note ofthanks for all he had
done for them and the kind words he
had spoken. The General was deeply
affected by the tokens of esteem and
love. In the midst of it all the man
from Morrellville pushed his way to
the front.
"Are ye goin' away" he demanded.
'I am"
"Well ye are not goin' till ye pay
yer honest debts, be ye?"
"Well, now, if I owe any debts I am
right here on the hurricane deck ready
and anxious to pay them"
"Then give me the dollar ye owe
me-"
"What do 1 owe you dollar for??'
asked the General.
"Didn't hold your boss for ye down
in front of me house for more'n halfan
hour? Do yet think I'm goin' to hold
yer hoss for nothin'?"
The General was somewhat startled
at the demand. He was surrounded by
members of the staff. Rush Heidekoper,
who was familiar with the case, was so
indignant that he drew back his fist,
and the man from Morrellville, who
had his cellar cleaned out, was in inn
minent danger of taking flying trip
down the railroad embankment, but
the General restrained him.
"The man is right. He held my
horse for me-" said the Adjutant, with
an amused smile, "and if he thinks
owe him dollar will pay him.
The dollar was handed over, and
that was General Hastings final trans
action in Johnstown.

Insurrectionary Acts Of Negroes

RALEIGH, n. c., February oO.-A
special to the News and Observer from
Rocky Mount tonight regarding the
negro troubles there says:
"Capt. Henry Thorpe received yes
.terday through the postoffice a notice
saying that if the light infantry were
under arms last night every single
member would be killed, sooner OF
later, if the negroes had to shoot them
one by one from ambush. A note was
received by the Farmers Alliance
which said that the way and the only
way to stop the fire was to send a purse
of $500 or s400 to Prof. Martin, OF
Petersburg. Martin is the negro emf
grafton agent who was advised to leave

something suitable for store or office; that

When a man puts On a Dress Suit he wants
to look and feel his best. He cannot do this
in suit that is ofindiferent style, inferior
quality or Ill fitting. One of the reasons that
some men feel awkward in a Dress Suit is
that they do not feel at home in it; the suit
is tight; it drags, pulls or wrink es, and the
mind is, so to speak, constantly oppressed by
the sense of physical discomfort. There is no nc,
reason for this condition OF things, after all
theprogress and experience in the nauufac-
ture of fine Clothing of the present day. l
