Of the by-elections was of such a char
acter as to make him most sanguine of
the speedy return of his party to power,
his hope of such consummation was
not based solely on that fact, but as
we'll upon the assured conviction that
the tide of public opinion was surely
turning in their favor.
Mr.. Gladstone lives q very regular
life at his home. He breakfasts lightly
about 7o'clock. and shortly before 8
walks to the church for prayers. To
the intelligent observer the sight of the
great statesman walking to church at
this early hour in the morning cannot
fail to be interesting. Clad in a long
coat, tightly buttOned, with a long
shawl wrapped closely around his neck,
and wearing a soft felt hat, his appear
ance is decidedly picturesque. Upon
his return to the castle from morning
prayers he retires to his study, where
he reads and answers, with the aid of
his secretary, his enormous mass of
daily correspondence.
There is no regular hour for luncheon
at the castle, and it is partaken of by
those at home at various times. In the
afternoon Mr.. Gladstone takes a walk
in the grounds. and if the weather is
propitious usually engages in his favor
lite exercise of treechopping. He dimes
at s o'clock, afterward reads or writes,
and at l0retires for the night. Though
abstemiOus in his habits. he usually
drinks bitter beer with his lunch, and
glass Or two of claret or port at din
ner. Mr.. Gladstone is not in any sense
ascetic, is n generous liver, and is a
great believer in the virtues of glass
of good port wine. When engaged i'll
speaking his FLIP is compound of
sherry and egg, which is prepared by
Mrs. Gladstone with as much anxiety
and care as if it were the elixir of life.
Mr.. Gladstone never smoked. He ac-
quired his habits at period when
tobacco smoking was generally re-
garded as somewhat vulgar among the
better classes.
Mr.. Gladstone usually has three
books i'll reading at the same time, and
changes from one to another as his
mind reaches the limit of absorption,
Or when he fancies that the volume i'll
hand has interested him just enough
not to be the sole object of thought.
This mode of reading is intended to be
corrective of a natural disposition OF
his mind to devote attention to some
particular subject to the exclusion OF
everything else.
In Mr.. Gladstone's study, besides
his books, which are seen everywhere,
there are three writing desks in the

GHOULISH WORK.
Collins SnOIen From the Crem
atOry and Sold at Half Price
to the Trade.

Cincinnati, O., Feb. 5.-Great ipdigna-
ton has been caused by the discovery that
bodies sent into the crematory have been
removed from the elegant collins provided
by loving relatives and the collins sold.
This disgusting and disease disseminating
practice was discovered owing to collins
being offered to respectable undertakes at
prices absurdly below value. This caused
suspicion, a trap was arranged into which
the ghouls speedily fell, and now the full
extent of the vandalism is known. Ii is
needless 10 say that the management at
the cremstory is acquitted of all COM
plicity and is doing all in its power TO
MAKE out an unanswerable case against the
thieves. The Superintendent, Theodore
Heyman, is, however, openly charged with
being the "inside man" who has made the
vandalism possible. Not only have these
stolen caskets been sold to local undertake
crs, but some have been shipped even into
other states The casket in which the re
mains of DR.. Schmuck were placed has
been found in an Indiana coffin shop, and
by the side of it the tiny receptacle for
the infant daughter of Otto
Rauchfuss. Another stolen coffin, val.
ned at nearly $500, had contained the
remains of DR.. J. s. Carter, and had
been shipped from New Orleans, where
that physician died. This had been sold
for a mere song, and the shipping marks
had not been oblitersted. An undertaken
named Hurtig was the purchaser, and he
had relieved the thieves of several other
collins. The actual thief was an e1-conv'ci
AIMED Charles Bloom, out of whom a con
fession was wormed by local reporter
Bloom, in response to an insinuation o.
graveyard robbery, said the collins came
from the crematory, and that the bodie:
were removed from them just before th'
process of incarceration commenced.
