AN INTERESTING CASE.
The Countess Sarolta Ways Marriage to
n PrettY Young Maiden.

The Countess Sarolta Ways Marriage to
Pretty Young Maiden.
Prof. Kraft Ebing, the famous special
ist in mental diseases, in a book just
published devotes a long chapter to an
interesting case which came before an
Austrian court of justice about year
ago, and, without attempting to explain
it's cause. says that it would be well for
doctors to take note Of it. In November,
1889, the father-in-law of Count Sander
Way accused the latter of having OBJ
tanned from him 500 forins under false
pretenses. The trial showed not only
that this was quite true but that Count
Way had forged documents and had con-
cluded sham marriage with the prose-
cutor's daughter, being in reality not a
man at all, but the Countess Sarolta
Way, who had for years passed herself
off for man by wearing mems clothes.
The Countess Sarolta's father, spend
thrift, who ran through 1,500, 600 florins,
brought up his two children as his crazy
mind dictated. The girl went as a boy
and the boy as a girl. When the boy
reached fifteen he became cadet and
the comedy ended for him. Not so with
Sarolta, who was known as Sander. Be-
fore she was eighteen she drank, smoked,
fenced cleverly, spent the evenings at
cafes, and had several love affairs.
Everybody in Buda-Pesth took her for
a man. Three years ago she made the
acquaintance Of the daughter Of gov
ernment clerk who had just passed her
examination as school-mistress. After
two years of courting they eloped and
were married in Hungary, a false priest
officiating and an intimate friend acting
as witness. The pair lived together for
six months, until the father-in-law,
alarmed by the sad state of the Counts"
finances, sued him for fraud. 1t has not
been possible to ascertain whether the
wife was really attached to her "hus-
band" or whether the fear of being the
object of ridicule kept her quiet. Sarolta
Way was acquitted. She returned to
Buda- Pesth and to her male attire and
her habits of smoking and drinking.
She writes for the newspapers, and is
not without talent. Her only grief she
declares is that she has been robbed of
what she calls her lawful wife.--London

INCOMES OF LAWYERS.
A Limited Number Earn Large Sums
While the Majority Bnrely Exist.

While the Majority Barely Exist.
The much mooted question of the av-
erage income of lawyers, as compared
with those of other pursuits, can never
be determined with accuracy, because
the principle of the success applying
with greater aptness to the legal career
than to any other, lawyers are the most
reluctant of any class to admit the
meagerness of their individual incomes
and perhaps the most disposed to exag-
gerate them. Every body knows that
certain lawyers in New York have great
incomes. Some are even mentioned as
making S100,O 600 year from their prac-
tice. While is is doubtless true that
more than that sum of money has been
made in single year by several of the
great legal lights yet it is doubtful
whether any of them ever continued to
average so much from his practice sew
eral years in succession. The men who
have made 100000 in legal practice
within any twelve months in New York
could probably be counted on ones
fingers, and their ordinary income would
be from S25, 900 to $4,000.
In the next class is much larger
number of first-class lawyers, whose in
come ranges from $4,000 to S25, 900.
Common report would include 200 to 800
in this category. The most of them are
over forty years old, and, generally
speaking, there will be general in
crease in income from the fortieth to
the sixtieth year. Many Of them are
men whose names seldom or never ap-
pear in the newspapers, and who are
comparatively unknown to the public.
They are known as "olfice lawyers'-
often the best trained legal minds that
furnish the law for the use of their
partners with the more snowy talents
of the advocate. Some of them are gen.
eral counsel for one or more great cor
porations, to which they devote all
their time and energies under general
retainer, which precludes the accept
ance of other clientage. The noteworthy
point in the present connection is that
nearly all of them will admit that until
they verged close upon forty years of
age their incomes were small.
But only about per cent. of the 6,000
odd individuals on the New York law
list has been mentioned. How about
the other 95 per cent? Perhaps 80 per
cent. make from $4,000 to $4,000; but
that would certainly be generous est-
mate. 1t is the big majority that still
remains who are the ''strugglers." How
melancholy this struggle has become to
many may be imagined from a glance at
the newspaper advertising columns and
a visit to some of the large law offices,
where lawyers advanced in life are serv-
ing in clerical positions on small sal.

The work of classification of the ex-
hibits for the worlds fair, which was

classification Prof. Goode has provided
for ten groups or departments, as fol-

Keeplnc Maohinery rom nustInr.

A mechanic says that in order to keep
machinery from rusting he takes one
ounce OF camphor and dissolves it in a
pound of melted lard, taking off the
scum, and mixing in as much fine black
lead as will give it color The ma
chinery is then cleaned and smeared
with this mixture. After twenty-four
hours the machinery is rubbed clean
with soft linen cloth, and 1t will keep
clean for months. The same artisan
gives the following method of harden
ing tools: Forge the tool into shape,
then melt in dish sufficient Babbitt
metal to cover the end of the tool as far
as it is wished to harden it. Thrust
the tool into the metal and let 1t cool.
This method makes the tool much
harder than cooling in oil or temper
ing by any other process. = Chicago

II never saw drunkard," said Alice,
still eying her companion in the same
intent, abstracted sort of way. "But
I've always supposed they had red noses

west at Twenty-sixth street, Archer av-
enue, Thirty-frst, Thirty-ninth, Forty
third and other streets up to Seventy
ninth street. The fare over any of
these lines to jackson Park is five
cents. The Illinois Central, Michigan
Central, Baltimore & Ohio and Kanka-
kee railroad lines run near the park on
the west. All of the eastern and
southern lines of railway run within a
short distance of the park.
The Illinois Central owns the right of
way over which the Michigan Central,
Kankakee and Baltimore & Ohio roads
enter the city. Under the terms of the
lease by which these roads are to use
the Illinois Central tracks, they are not
to interfere with the suburban service
of the Illinois Cenral. The latter owns
right of way of 200 feet in width and
has in some places six and eight tracks
which can be extended into the heart of
the city. 1t is question whether,
under the terms of the lease, the other
roads can run trains to the fair and
whether other trains to the fair than
the Illinois Central can be strictly con-
sidered as interfering with the Illinois
Central's suburban service.
Superintendent Snyder of the Michi-
gan Central said he had not considered
the question, but should judge that the
Illinois Central would object to other
roads using its tracks for the transpor-
tation of exposition visitors in other
trains for the accommodation of worlds
fair passengers under the terms of the
lease with the Illinois Central.
Granting that the Illinois Central
should take the position outlined by
Superintendent Snyder, it remains to
be seen how the Illinois Central can
handle the traffic which will thereby
fall to it alone. President Fish of the
Illinois Central was out of the city
yesterday, but his remarks to the com
mittee on transportation embodied in
the committees report of August 10,
may be taken as indicative.
President Fish declared to the COM
pany that he and his company were de-
sirous of doing every thing that could
properly be done to promote the success

more than three times the space used in

Originally it was believed 30 acres
were needed between Jackson street
and Park row, but according to the re-
port of Director Hutchinson, chairman
of the special committee on that sub
ject, 10 acres are needed instead of 30.
This contemplates the filling in of
strip of land between Jackson street
and Park row of about 500 or 600 feet in
width at an approximate cost of $780,

THE TRANSPORTATION QUESTION.
The site having been definitely set
tied upon, the next question arising is
the transportation of visitors between
the city and Jackson Park.
Jackson Park is located on the lake
shore between Fifty-sixth street on the
north and Sixty-seventh street on the
south No other site in the city can
compare with it in the ease with which
it can be reached. The Cottage Grove

In week or two. however, Mr.. Mere
