Dear at tho Price.

A change of mind has often occurred
after tho marriage bans have been pub
ished. y Clergyman tells recently of a
man having put i'll the bans, and after
they had been twice published asked if
he might substitute the name of another
girl for tho one first entered, adding by
way of explanation: II think shc will
suit mo better in the long rum" On
being told that the change could not be
effected unless tho first bans were with
drawn, others substituted and the fees
paid IL second time, also that the full
interval, including three Sundays, must
elapse before the marriage could be celc
bratcd, tho man hcsitatcd. 'Do yo,
mean to say that should have to begin
all over again. he asked. "Ccrtlinly,'
was tho reply; "thc bans must be pub
lishcl three times in the names of the
persons who arc actually to be married. y
And must l pay all over again if have
the other girl?" eyes," said tho clergy
man. "Well, call that too bad"
The candidate ormatrimony remained
for some moments i'll brown study,
then broke out with: "Thcn I'll stick to
tho first girl Tn not going to pay
twice over for anybody" He was mar
ricd during tho following week in accord
ance with this decision, evidently con-
sidering the proposed substitution would
be too dear at the price of double fees.

would be bridegrooms arc usually of all

They've Lost Millions.

A thief undiscovered belongs as much
to the outfit of a phenomenally famous
singer as her indispensable rouge pot.
The lack of a perfect shape does not sig
Nifty, but tho lack of thief would be
ruin. Adelina Patti has been robbed by
night and by day, in Europe and Amer
lea, on shore and at sea, in hotels and on
railway trains. Carlotta Patti and Chris
tine Nilsson and-but why mention
names.
An incredible amount of diamonds
and jewels have disappeared in this way
without ever turning up again. But the
lady artists are forgiving. They do not
prosecute the thieves They do not 90
to tho police. They do not offer rewards.
Perhaps they know that the gold in their
throats can easily he coined, and that
their rippling notes can soon be changed
into rows of pearls, They arc easy 60
ing and soon forget their loss. A royal
present to q lady artist whish does not
get stolen has missed its object, and
cases have indeed occurred whore pres.
ntswhich were never given were stolen.

A Silnnlo Dor Story.

An exchange tells of the peculiar ap-
petite of u dog owned by Butte City
merchant, whose latest exploit was to
swallow II diamond stud, lunch on II roll
of greenbacks, and, by way of a dessert,
thoughtfully 1nasticatcd a pair of British
half hose. Evidently this is no ornery
purp, still for marked epicurcan eccen-
tricities it cannot compare with saf-
fron-hued bird dog we once owned. This
thoroughbred animal developed delicate
tastes quite early in life.
On one occasion while we were absent
from the house he plundcred IL cage con-
tanning pet canary bird, killed the
futtering inmate, plucked tho feathers
and then laid tho bare little body in a
frying pan over u gas stove, where it
was left until the skin turned q beauti-
full brown. We came back just as he
intelligent canine was adding tho proper
proportions of pepper and salt to the
cooked morsel, when he bolted tho meal
hastily for fear of interruption and then
scooted through the open door.
After remaining away for two days he
returned with fine young pullet in his
mouth, stolen from ncighboring hem
merry, and this he placed at our feet,
wagging his tail and winking his eyes
significantly, as much as to say, "This is
to square tho roast canary bird" 4
really was a very tender chickcn.-Sam

Many houses were built during the
summer, and now people are hrrrying
into them, not stopping to think that
there is too great haste in occupying q
house after its completion. In many
places there is such demand for dwell
ings, and often business apartments,
that, as soon as finished, they are occu-
pied. This is especially true of small
dwellings. There is more danger in this
than is supposed. There is no health in
dampness and mold under any circum-
stances, and in living apartments, where
the tendency is toward poor ventilation,
the dampness of newly finished houses
contributes largely to i'll health.
in the town of Basle, Switzerland, a
regulation has been adopted which pre-
vents newly built houses from being oc-
cup;ed until four months after compile
ton. Under many circumstances SO
long IL time as above specified is not
necessary, but it is often we'll to err on
the side of safety. The size of the house,
its location, surroundings, tho material
used and the state of the weather enter
into the consideration of the time neces-
sary in which a building should become
sufficiently dry for occupancy.-Ncw

rurcn.a, Gloom in Our Homes.

Boys and girls are often spoiled by
parental gloom. The father never un-
bends. The mothers rheumatism hurts
80 she does not sec how little Maggie can
ever laugh. Childish curiosity is de-
nounced as impertinence. The parlor is
a parliament, and everything in ever
lasting order. Balls and tops in that
house are nuisance, and tho pap that
the boy is expected most to relish is ge-
ometry, little sweetened with the
chalk of blackboards. For cheerful
reading tho father would recommend
"Young's Night Thoughts" and Her.
vey's "Meditations Among the Tombs. :"
At tho first chance the boy will break
loose. With one grand leap he will
clear the catechisms; he will burst away
into all notous living. He will be so
glad to get out of Egypt that ho will
jump into tho Red sea. Tho hardest
colts to catch are those that have long
while been locked up. Restraints are
necessary, but there must be somc out
let. Too high a dam will overflow all
the meadows.-Rev. T. Do Witt Tai

Double sa.hes for 1,aI,,.ox Car.

In consequenceoft the decided addition
TO tho comfort of travellers of double
sashes in passenger cars by reason of the
prevention of the admission of cold air
in winter and dust in summer several
railway companies have decided to use
double windows altogether in the future,
and this conclusion has probably been
hastened by the fact that many of their
best day coaches and chair cars rival
special cars in the richness of their
plushes and interior decorations, and
they cannot afford to have such fittings
rapidly destroyed by the dust.
The comparative case with which a
car fitted with double windows can bo
heated in winter is also consideration.
They not only prevent cold air leaking
in where it is not wanted, but they also
interpose layer of comparatively still
air between the warm air i'll the car and
the cold atmosphere outside, thereby
preventing the loss of considerable heat
by conduction and convcction.-New
Orleans Picayune.

Taken by u HANSON cabman.

People little know what terrible
power rests in the hands of q hanson
cab1nan. They will realize it now when
they hear how s.ernly and, it must be
added, how ,sefnlly it was applied in the
case of one William Jones. 1t appears
that this person, who described himself
asa commercial traveller, hired a hanson,
and was driven about the town for sew.
eral hours. For certain reasons the
cab,pan suspected that there was some
thing wrong about his fare. So what
did he do but let down the front glass
lights. and keep them down, thereby
effectually imprisoning the vainly pro-
testing traveller. He then drove to the
Peckha,n police station and gave up his
prisoner.
He had done well, for William Jones
turned out to be very bad character;
in fact, an old and convicted burglar,
whose suspicious movements had lately
attracted the serious attention of the po-
lice. Brought up at the Lambeth police
court, on the charge of being disorderly
and as a person under police supervision,
supposed to be getting his livelihood by
dishonest means, he was sent to prison
with hard labor for twelve months. The
hanson cab has thus figured, for the first
timo in history, as thief trap. 1t is to
be hoped that its newly discovered and
awful power will never be employed at
the expense of tho innocent

A scotchman,s perspicu,tv.

relating at the Leland hotel some of the
incidents of the Spalding baseball tour
of the world, in which he was partici-
pant. II am aware that such an ele-
ment is not usually credited to tho Scotch

a Siberian ExiIc's story,

An escaped Siberian exile, who has
been in England for some time under the
name of Felix Brant, is now made
known by the new paper called Free
Russia as Felix Volkhovslky. The real
son for his retention of an assumed name
for some time after his safe arrival on
free soil helps one to realize the terrible
anxieties of the unfortunate men who
offend the Russian government. He was
afraid that his child might be seized by
that government, and that they would
punish him for his escape through his
daughter.
She is now safe in London, and the
anxieties of the parent on her account
are at an end. He endured seven years
of solitary confinement in a Russian
fortress, and eleven years exile in ST.
IBERIA for political opinions in which we
are told terrorism had no part. Eluding
the vigilance of the Siberian authorities,
he made his way right across Siberia to
the Pacific and so to Canada.-London

Punished for Being Honest.

John Brannon, Il man bearing a good
character, found check ut the Edin-
burgh exhibition. He could not read.
and tho friends to whom he showed tine
check advised him to keep it and look
out for Il reward. This he did, buying
the Edinburgh papers for a month, at
the end of which timo he handed over
the check to tho police. He then got his
reward.
He was prosecuted for not giving up
the check within tho prescribed time
after finding it, and was brought before
Baltic Walcot, who, although "he did
not think there was any intention of
theft" imposed fine of e1, or two days
imprisonment, ''it being too serious IN
affair for his lordship to pass by" The
bailie therefore expressly finds that the
man was not thief Why, then, the
sentence? Evidently as a punishment
for honesty, since if the man had de-
stroyed tho check instead of delivering
it to the police he would never havo got
into trouble.-London Truth.

Frcals of "a s;n,nn.ml,ulist.

a young man who is we'll known in
tins city had an unpleasant experience Il
short time ago. He is Il somnambulist
and often does peculiar things in his
sleep. He Went 10 visit some friends in
Waterbury, and as he was not in the
habit of retiring as early as the members
of the family he was visiting, he re-
manned up and took his shoes off before
ascending the stairs
a few nights after his return to his
home he lay down OH q lounge and fell
asleep. After sleeping soundly half
hour he arose, walked to the foot of the
stairs, took off bis shoes, and not being
content with doing that, he drew off his
stockings also. lie then clambered up
stairs to his room. Taking u match from
his pocket he brought one of his feet up
So that he could reach tho bottom of it,
and then deliberately scratched the
match Oh the fiat surface.
Tho match did not light Immediately,
but he kept on scratching. Finally tho
match did light. Tho holder was uncon-
scious of the fact and kept on scratch
ing. Suddenly he awoke in great pain
from the bum. He limped about for
several days, and since that time ques-
tions about the proper mode of lighting
q match have been distasteful to him.

She Was D,z1lc.l.

They tell a good story at the expense
of Col. Moore, one of the members of
the Everett Piano company, and no one
enjoys it better than he does. While he
was resident of Colorado some wears
ago he was appointed a member of the
staff of Governor Grant, and on the day
the governor was inaugurated the staff
appeared in resplendcnt uniforms, that
of Col. Moore being further cmbellished
with the medals he had Won for distin-
guished bravery in the Crimean war, for
he had served there when mere lad.
The colonel is Il large, handsome man,
and with his uniform and medals is
pretty apt to make considerable of Il dis
play. On this occasion. when the in
auguration was over, he called upon a
friend while still in uniform. A little
girl answered the bell, and as she went
back into the house with eyes wide open
i'll establishment her mother asked,
'Who is it?' to which she replied. 81

1t Didn't Work,

A doctor on the north side played u
neat little trick upon his wife. Ever
since sho first met him he has been
bearded like the pard, and both whis-
kcrs and mustache have been regarded
as no inconsiderable part of his profess
sional outfit. The lady was returning
from the country, and her lord was to
meet her at the depot. He usually wears
a Prince Albert black coat and q tall
silk hat, as bccometh the dignity of a
medicine man. He changed all that
upon the appointed day.
First he went and had his face clean
shaved. He then purchased straw
hat with blue ribbon band, and hastened
to array himself in a light ts1it, of which
the coat was u short sack, buttoned up
to the chin. He saw his wife looking
out for him, and, keeping his head
turned down, he approached tho car and
said in disguised voice: "Can I be of
any assistance, MADAME"
The somewhat disconsolate lady
thanked him and said sho would be
much obliged if he would call carriage.
When she had taken her seat he jumped
in and sat beside her without saying a
word. She gave him a long, piercing
look, and then said calmly, "Why, you
great idiot, you're almost naked. Chi

Knoc nrccchcs and Silk Stockings.


And so knee hreeches and silk stock
lngs are to be the fashion for full dress
occasions in England this winter. And
why not in America as we'll? Long have
gentlemen in society struggled to he al
lowed to make some distinction between
their own dress and that of the walters.
But fashion or custom is inexorable A
year or two ago very sensible society
lady in New York gave ball, at which
the gentlemen were requested to appear
in variously colored garments. The re-
suit was charming, q revival of the days
of Louis and of the Charleses. But the
fashion thus set, or attempted to be set,
did not continue. Why not no one can
tell.
After this ono ball was over tho Grim
son and blues and puNples were laid
aside and appeared no More, and their
owners reappeared in their somber
"claw hammers" To resume tho garb
of our forefathers for ordinary wear
would be an absurdity, but to revive
these graceful and elegant garments for
dress occasions woull certainly bo good
taste and could not be unfavorably re-
ceived by the ladies. Tho revival of the
silk stockings and breeches in English
society is perhaps forerunner of some
such revolution. Already we Of this
country are growing sensible in the
matter of summer attire; why should
we not grow sensible as we'll in our gar
ments for social occasionsp-Bost Ad-

Naming Colts.

Naming colts as they are brought into
the world on big stock raising farm
might seem to be simple operation; but,
just ns when tho parents of dozen chill
dren find themselves short of names and
have to resort to Biblical or classical
Technology, so do the owners of lot Of
horses kept for tho purpose of raising
horses for the turf find themselves run
ming short Of names. Who has failed to
notice tho odd nomenclature of tho race
course2 Tho proprietor of farm and a
big lot of thoroughbreds i'll Pennsylvania
has made rule for himself. To all the
colts born in the first year, under this
rule, he gave names beginning with A,
in tho second year b, and so on. He put
the idea into practice nine years ago, and
has reached the letter l. Sometimes
there are queer combinations of names.
Forinstance IL colt was named Harmony,
and tho next yearhis brother had tackled to
him the name Impudcnce. Asthe breeder
has fifteen colts this year to be named
with names beginning with the letter l,
he confesses himself puzzled to originate
attractive and orotund names enough to
go arourd.-New York Sun.

Caring for the Pennies,

The Detroit Savings bank has adopted
plan which is novel in this country,
but is in use in the postal savings system
in Europe, for gathering little savings
and bringing the advantage of the bank
within easy reach of everybody. Agencies
are selected in various parts of the city,
such as drug stores, groceries and other
reputable places. where adhesive labels
of different denominations and colors,
resembling postage stamps, will be sold.
Cards corresponding in color with the
labels will be furnished, upon which the
depositor will af1ix the labels as they are
purchased until the twenty spaces on the
cards are filed. For instance, suppose
that a depositor determines to save five
cents per week. He is furnished with a
card corresponding in color with the five
cent labels
He purchases the label weekly at the
nearest agency, and afixesit to the card.
When the card is full it is worth 81, and
is then sent to q savings bank for depos-
it, when the amount is entered upon the
usual deposit book. Labels will be for
various convenient denominations, MAX
ing the cards when filled even amounts,
as 81, S2, IS, and so on.
1t is expected that the agents will do
the work as a labor of love and public
benefit, though small commissions may
be paid. This system brings the savings
bank to the people who need it most.
We have 6ve-cent savings banks now,
but comparatively few people will take
the trouble to go to the bank to deposit
few cents. 1t will be very easy mat
ter, however. to go to tho nearest drug
store or grocery and purchase the label,
and the method involves no risk, except
that of keeping the deposit card safe un-
til it is filled.-Springfeld Union.
