 The Pennsylvania board of pardons evi- dently has faith. Charles Larrabee, in @ Pennsylvania prison for fourteen years for murder, has succeeded in getting the board to believe wonderful story and secured-his release. The story is to the effect that his victim had decided upon suicide but con- cluded to ask Larrabee to kill him instead. and finally forced the deed upon Larrabee by threatening to kill him If he refused. On the strength of this story Larrabee was re- leased.

The Norman w. Dodge prize of three hum
 dred dollars for "the best picture painted in
 the United States by @ woman" was awarded
 to Miss A. NJ. Richards for her painting
 called "An Interlude to Chopin" The
 picture, now at the academy exhibition in
 New York, showsa young woman with lit tie child in her arms, seated at piano and attempting to play while the child is striking
 the keys at random. Miss Richards was a student at the metropolitan museum and has
 also been special pupitof H. s. Mowbray.
 Upon the awarding committee were the
 artists Church, Millet and J. G. Brown. WOMEN AND UMBRELLAS.
 It has long been said that woman does not know how to carry an umbrella, but if we may believe a Pittsburg dealer in these indispensable articles, she does not know
 enough to return borrowed one. He says: TT have been long time in the business of selling them, and have made special study of woman in connection with the bor-
 rowed umbrella phase of social ethics, and I have yet to learn of a case in which she has abused the confidence reposed in her when she was lent an umbrella to protect herself in sudden shower. She either returns it in person, or sends 1t with verbal thanks or pretty note at the first opportunity"
 The dealer has been pursuing this study for years, and not content with his own ex- perience is in the habit of interrogating his customers on the subject, entering their re- plies in book kept for this purpose. He therefore feels justified in speaking on this subject with the utmost confidence.
 Now, let every woman who has borrowed umbrella in the house hasten to return 1t in l order that she may feel herself worthy of
 this ''good report" And let her take her own umbrella with her in order to escape the disagreeable alternative of re-borrowing the one she intended to return, or of reaching home drenched and despondent, convinced | that honesty is not always the best policy. HILARY

up the classics she must lay down the dust- brush and broom; if, while her mind bright ems, her manners rust; if . taste for Homer is incompatible with taste for home; if, in fine, she must put off the crown of womanli- ness ere she can wreathe her brow with lau- rels of scholarship, then, for the sake of dear humanity, let her fling away the laurels that she may keep the crown.

rat in Spain, and from whose walls I could discern the blue waters of the Aediterrsne- an on the west and those of the Adriatic on the east; thence came with several hundred returning lowly pilgrims, camping with them by the roadside at night, into Taranto, the ancient Tarentum of the Greeks, whose woudrous wealth gave it fatal luxury and in time horror, disgrace and ruin, when. In 209, the Romans plundered it and sold thirty thousand of it's people into slavery; and, fally, crossing the eastern mountain range of Otranto on foot, had the pleasure of setting my substantial American sole-leather for an exhilarating tramp of ten Italian miles upon the same Appian Way, leading from Rome to Capua, and from Capua to Brindisi which stentorian valedictorisns have 30 many times vociferously trod, feeling far more satisfied with my own day and time than could have even 90 distinguished a predecessor as Hor- ace when, in the train of Mascenas he tagged along the same stony road to secure literary ssscoop" at the conclusion of @ certain fa- nous alliance between Augustus and Anto- ny at Tarentum.
 But one has opportunity in this sort of loi- tering to see tive thousand years this side of l the myths, heroes and saVagery of time our classics have mystioised, deiied and glori- fed. You feel like sitting with the carret- tajo as his cart and OK or mule are waiting by the fountain; climbing to the shrines with the dusty pilgrims; waiting by the montato- jo or mounting-block with the beggars at wayside inna; making all sorts of excuses to get into the interior of cabins for draughts of acqua di latte and nanfa, the buttermilk and orange water, which you can always get in the country for five soldi, or one Ameri- can cent; winding along the craggy ways with the peoore and his hocks; becoming the companion of the yignajo or vine dresser at his scorching toll in the stifing vineyards; trudging at the side of the ploughman after the odd procession in the fields; and, close to every manner of laboring lowly, to get near to the heart throbs of each and all of these that you may know they are human like your own. That is the only way to know Italy or any country. Those who only see America on the New York avenues, Lon don along Rotten Row, Milan at the Scala, Florence at the Cascine, Rome in the Corso, and Naples along the Chiaja, never see or know of the bronzed and toiling hosts who produce the magnifcence of which they are part.

HoAR HAS COMPLETED THE REVISED
vERsIoN-BLAtNE' s ADVICE.
Senator Hoar has his new Election
Iill completed. lie has been at work
upon It in the Committee on Privileges
and Elections for some time. The re-
doubtable John / Davenport has been
helping him. Not all Of Davenport's
expert suggestions have been accepted
however For instance, the new bill
drops the jury commissioner clause,
which Davenport thought allim-
portant.
The bill as II came from the House
has been considerably reduced in bulk,
and, in some respects, modified
Besides the dropping Of the
jury commissioner, Il is under
stood that the clauses, auihori-
zing troops at the polls have been
omitted. A number Of the details have
been left out also In the main, how
ever, the bill is the Lodge bill, though
perhaps a shade less obnoxious.
The bill, though prepared with the
assistance of a sub committee, Is vet to
be submitted to the whole committee
Besides, before the Republicans decide
to adopt as the measure to be put
through. il will have to undergo the
ordeal of a caucus. These things will
delay, probably, its coming up in the
Senate until the latter part of next
week or the first of the week after.
The House bill, which is on the
table, will be called up and the
new measure substituted. II Is under
stood II will be made special order for

and the Tariff bill so along together,
with fine chance Of holding Congress
here until late in October.
The Senators opposed 10 the Force
bill are still laboring TO prevent its
coming up. Secretary Blaine told
one Of them-Senator Hale-that,
I'm his opinion, the Republi.
cans would do better to drop the Force
bill and pass an Apportionment bill.
which, he thinks, would enable them
to hold the next House.

From ne 50. Louis Rspublic.
Society In Lincoln, Neb. Is somewhat
torn over the sensational situation in
which John Schultz, a handsome aud
wealthy druggist, finds himself.
Several days ago 1t was announced by
Schultz that he has married Mrs, Bed
ford. charming widow employed at
the Bond Hotel, and he publicly intro.
duced her as his wife. The lady was
congratulated by all her friends on her
remarkably lucky capture.
Schultz announced 10 day that the
marriage was all a Joke aud a hoax, but
the lady will not listen TO this. She
admits that there was no marriage
ceremony, but since he has publicly
acknowledged her as his wife the act
constitutes q commOn-law marriage and
she Is his wife. She has appealed 10
the courts TO sustain her claim.
