How Thomas Mast Grew Cp.

MANY years ago." says the Cincin-
natl Iimes-Stdr, when DR. William
Mast, the eminent German Methodist
divine and editor. was the church mis-
sionary in this city he found a poor
German who lay dying He could go
in peace if he only knew that some
thing could be done for the BOY. DR..
Mast. whose heart was bigger than his
purse, promised that he would care
for the boy himself. The poor man
died and the boy was taken into the
doctors family. He was apprenticed
to the printers trade. After he had
become a good big boy he ran away,
and was not heard of for two or three
years. Then he came back. He had
been to sea. He remained at home for
some little time. In later years the
orphan and runaway boy became
famous. The doings of his pencil caught
the eye of the world. He became the
caricaturist, Thomas Mast"

BUFFALO, Nov. IA murder of most
sensational character occurred at Akron,
small village in this Erie county, last
night. Sarah Mcmillan, girl about eigh-
teen years old, enticed two little girls,
Della Brown and Nellie May Corners, to
the high bridge back of the Akron Gem
ent Works, when she threw both off the
bridge, injuring Della internally and
killing Nellie outright. The bridge is
tifty-two high. Della struck eight feet
from the water and Nellie hit an abut-
ment in the fall and had her skull crush
ed. Miss Mcmillan threw Nellie over first
and Della tried to get away, but the Nc
MILAN girl being too quick for her, caught
her and threw her over. Then she went
back to town and tried to commit suicide
by throwing herself off the Murder Greek
bridge, but was rescued just in time by
the father of Della Brown, who, OF course.
knew nothing about what happened.
When the children were missed search
was made for them and they were found
early this morning. The Mcmillan girl
was taken home and put to bed, but re-
fused to say word as to why she did the
terrible deed. 1t is known however, that
she was in love with Brown, the father
OF Della, who in turn was paying atten-
ton to Mrs. Corners, Nellie's mother.
1t is thought that she intended to kill
both children to spite Brown ond Mrs.
Corners. Miss Mcmillan is now in the
Buffalo Jail.

Women in Spain.

Dona Emilia Bazan writes admirably
on the Spanish women in the Rerista
hero americana. Few are the pro-
LESSONS open to women in Spain" she
writes. land fewer still are the women
of the middle-clasS who can make up
their minds to exercise Them" The
woman of the people considers it her
duty to earn Il living; the woman of
the middle-class thinks that she ought
to be maintained by the work of men.
The Spanish bourgeoise is eager to
initiate the aristocracy, an ambition
which too often makes her priggish
and vulgar. Woman in Spain is not
depraved. thought she is much
dwarfed." Actresses, as a rule, lead
modest ard retired lives, usually re-
nouncing the stage when they marry.
10 this lukewarmness for their profess
sion Dona +. Bazan ascribes the decad.
snce of the theater in Spain.

Snails are largely consumed by con-
sumptives in England who can afford
them. OF course they are imported.
The best come from the vineyards of
France, and for this reason they are
considered especially fine. They are
certainly a luxury. for tin of snails

many people who are not careful about
consulting the menu at swell dinners
eat them as such. Another novelty

are little things like shrimps. and are

THE RESULT.

Everything has gone democratic.
Peck's majority will reach 10000. The
legislature Is democratic on joint ballot
by quite large majority. Seven of the
nine congressman are democrats. And
there is bare possibility that the entire
delegation will be democratic. Michigan
has gone democratic SO has Indiana and
Massachusetts and probably Minnesota.
Colorado is also claimed by the democrats
and seemingly with reason. The Far
mers' Alliance swept Kansas and ingalls,
defeat is regarded as quite certain. 1t is
probable that Pattison, democrat, is elect
ed governor of Pennsylvania North Da-
kota is in dispute and New Hampshire
has probably gone democratic. The Il

The Button on Your Sleeve.

Persons of observing turn of mind
have noticed two or three buttons on
the sleeves of coats, both civil and
military; but few. however, have puz-
zled their brains seeking an explana-
ton of the reason of the custom. Pa
tent search has rewarded "Ye Curious
Man" with the following in regard to
the origin of the sleeve-button custom:
They were first put upon the sleeves
of soldiers in the British army. Prior
to the buttoned sleeves soldiers had
the filthy habit of drawing their sleeves
across their mouths and noses upon
every occasion when pocket hand
kerchief or napkin could have been
used to better advantage. As mat
ter of course the cuff became shiny
and defaced. Punishment and repri-
mands were tried but they failed to
check the habit. AS a last resort
board of officers met and unanimously
adopted plan suggested by one of
their number. which was Ito sew two
or three rough beads or buttons upon
the top part of the sleeve of every mill
itarv coat" This had the desired eff
feet, even if it did not SAVIOR of putting
ring in hogs snout to keep him
from roofing" By degrees soldiers,
as we'll as civilians, became more
tidy. The buttons were not removed
from the sleeves, however, only slid
around to the back or underside, where
they still linger, relic of semi
barbariSm, an ornament nevertheless.

That old veteran campaigner, Charles
EsslinGer, takes pleasure in hearing those
to whom public speaking is a new ex-
perience, speak of the panic which seizes
them when about to be presented to an
audience. The old gentleman began his
career as public speaker IN New York
at time when public speaking was by
no means a safe thing if an antagonistic
audience was encountered. He says he
never feared violence but he always felt
nervous before beginning his address
and he never got over it. Heinsists that
nervousness is essential to good speaking.
CASTELAR,. the famous Spanish states
man. is said to be in perfect agony while
being introduced and for time forgets
everything he intended to say. When he
beins talking everything comes back to
him. Senator Spooner insists that no
man can deliver good speech unless he
has a feeling of nervousness before be-
ginning.
