Washington with the record of the proceed

case of Commander b. II. McCalla
of the Enterprise. They were closeted
all day with Judge Advocate General
Remey making a full synopsis of the case
for the consideration of the Secretary of the
Navy, who will have final jurisdiction IN the
matter unless the sentence is dismissal, iii
which event the President alone can act The
result of the trial will not be known officially
until the Secretary is prepared to p-omulgate
the action of the department. The impression
prevails among naval officers, however. that
the court found Commander McCalla guilty of
several of the charges and sentenced him to
suspension from duty and to be reprimanded
by the department. 1t will be several days be-

Comparatively few people know that
the largest woman in Georgia lives in
Houston county, yet such is doubtless a
fact; that is, we haven't heard Of a
larger one. She is a negress. is A years
old, the mother Of eight children, and
lives OF the Dick johnson plantation,
near Grovania Her name is Anroe
Brown. From actual test of weights
and measures the following figures were
obtained by n party OF gentlemen who
saw her. Her weight is 800 pounds. She
is . feet 8 inches in height, Z feet Q inch
es is her circumference around the bust,
0 feet 4 inches around the waist and 80
inches around the arm near the shout
der. One man was unequal to the task
Of measuring her. She came remarka-
bly, near being as broad as she is long.
II is said she fills completely the body Of
a one-horse wagon, and is a full load for
one horse TO pull. Within the last twelve
months she has gained about 100 pounds
in weight.-Perry CGa.) Home journal.

This is the month in which to get n
stock Of potting soil together to put in
the greenhouse or cellar for winter and
sppng use. Do not neglect to do this
Go into the pasture and turn over sods
along the fence. You will find that part
Immediately beneath the top Of the
grass full Of fibrous roots. Scrape or
cut this of with a sharp hoe, and you
will have something light and spongy in
character and rich In vegetable matter
Add to this an equal quantity of rich
loan. and mix in with it enough of the
sharrest kind OF sand you can find to
make the mass so friable that when you
squeeze it in the hand it will fall apart
as soon as you relax your hold. Such a
soil will answer admirably for almost all
plants, and you will find it very conve-
nient to have a supply OIL hand to draw
from when needed. If you have a green
house put it under the benches and
keep 1t moist. II you put 1t in the cell
lar it will keep moist enough without
adding any water. Never be without a
supply of potting material, for you don't
know when you are going to need it

The antiquity Of gloves is very great.
They doubtless antedate history, for the
earliest literature alludes to them. They
have been known and worn from the re-
mote ages OF the world. Homer, in the
Odyssey, describes Laertes, the farmer
king, the father of Ulysses, in his retire
ment; while gloves secured his hands to
shield them from the thorns." Xenophon
jeers at the Persians for wearing gloves as
a protection from the cold. Not only did
they have umbrellas borne over them in
the summer" he says, but in winter It is
not sufficient for them to clothe their heads
and their bodies and their feet, mi they
have coverings made of hair fortheir hands
and their fingers" The Roman scorned
such efreminacy at that time, but we are
told that Mt about the time OF Christ the
OF Pliny, the historian. wore
gloves to keep his fingers nimble in cold
weather.-St, Louis Republic.

1t is asserted by men Of high professional
ability that when the system needs n stimu-
liant nothing equals a cup OF fresh coffee.

Picture frames of cherry, oak or chest
nut are richly decorated by marking de
signs on their surface with n hot poker.
Some very artistic effects may be pro-
dueed with comparatively little trouble.
The tones range from black through all
shades Of brown TO a delicate cream, nc
cording TO the degree OF heat In the
poker. These frames are handsome for
etchiDgs. Panels and plaques for hall
and dining room are drawn in this way,
the subjects being flowers, fruit or fig
ures. An oaken frieze in a picturesque
hunting lodge is embellished with dogs
and horses heads, riding whips and other
hunting emblems, all done in poker
work. in shaded browns.
Gilded hemp or MANILA rope with a
preference for the former, is also much
used for framing pictures and other dec
rations. A handsome frame may be
made by covering a fat wooden frame Of
dark color, or else made dark by stain
ing, with seine netting. and placing n
small sized. three strand rope on the
side next to the picture. When the
whole is gilded n very pleasing effect is
produced.-New York Ledger.

The cholera scare hat has afflicted
Europe to n degree has recalled an Incl.
dent of the time when Napoleon III was
at the height Of his power. The cholera
prevailed to a frightful extent at Amiens,
yet never u day passed that the empress
did not visit the hospitals to superintend
so far as she could the noble work Of al
laying the sufferings OF the stricken.
One morning a cure rushed into the
ward where the empress was consoling a
dying man. "Oh. your majesty" cried
the cure, 1.-TWO hours ago my vicar was
breakfasting with me, and now he is
deadg'
Eugene smiled placidly, THAT is
we'll"
"welrI" echoed the cure, in amaze
ment.
Eyes, it is we'll" she answered.
when once cholera becomes as violent
as hat II ceases"
The empress was right. From that day
the plague abated. Eugenie's valor did
much to fortify the people against the
epidemic to which very many. l am told
fell victims through sheer fright alone.

license at the recorders office. The re-
corder at first demurred because Miss
GRECO was but IL years old, but her father

"A curious statement" says a London
daily, has recently appeared to the effect
that the majority Of a nations painters are
born in the country, while the architects
spring from the metropolis. At first sight
such an assertion seems plausible enough,
and quite in accordance with the nature of
things; but, as a matter of fact, the exact
contrary is the case-so far at least as Lon
don and Paris are concerned. We believe
we do not overstate the case in saying that
In England co per cent. and in Paris 10 per
cent. of the nations artists were born in

A Man who Loved to Lie A-Sasking

A Man who Loved to Lie A-SasEinE In
the SIN and Read Poetry.
A curious incident occurred the other
night while the detective police were SCOUT
ing the Bots de Boulogne, with the object
Of Kidding IL OF the many suspicious char
acters who had recently made Il a place of
resort. A poorly dressed man. seeing the
police give chase to a gang of roughs, took
to his heels and fed. The fact Of his run
ming away induced the police TO follow in
pursuit, but the man, reaching the lake
before them, plunged bravely in and swan
to the opposite bank in the expectation
OF eluding them. Unfortunately for him,
other detectives witnessed the scene, and
quietly arrested him when he stepped out
Of the water.
Taken dripping wet to the police COM
missary's Office he was of course search
ed. In a canvas bag strapped over his
shoulder were found. first, a little case con-
timing needles and thread, a zinc drinking
cup, a pocketknife, two pocket handker-
chiefs and 400 francs in notes and gold. On
the sight ofthis money the police commissa-
ry at once concluded the man had stolen It,
and began to question him and to call him
a thief; but at that moment the official
was surprised by his subordinate drawing
out Of the ~inexhaustible canvas bag two
well worn volumes of poetry, one by Al
AANAA ~ AAAAaNSbf AhN OluGI y NlCIOE hugo
The "thier' said he was neither a rough
nor a thief, nor anything but a hard work
ing, but perhaps eccentric, individual. He
was not a vagabond, because during the
winter he always had n lodging at a house
he named, but during the summer his
great delight was to live in the open air,
basking in the sun in the day and enjoying
the GOODNESS Of the night. He neither stole
nor begged In his wanderings, for he lived
on the savings he had put by in the winter,
during which he worked night and day as
a porter at the Central market. As he
never drank anything but water he was,
by great economy, able to live on a franc a
day, and 10 save at least two francs.
While at work he always carried his
money every week 10 the savings bank.
He was never weary of his wandering life,
for his greatest delight was poetry.
His ~favorite authors were de Musset and
Victor Hugo. The volumes found in his
pouch had, he declared, been read by him
over and over again, and every time with
increased pleasure. Every one Of the va
grants statements was, on inquiry, found
TO be absolutely true. At the Central
market he had the reputation OF being one
Of the most hard working and honest Of
porters. At the house where he lodged in
the winter his reputation was equally
good.-Pall Mall Gazette.
