George wIniam cur,.s. WIFE,

/ very often see n matronly looking
woman with q bright, intellectual face
on Broadway, in the vicinity Of WASH
ington square. Her manner is simple
and dignified, and altogether she is
handsome and agreeable. She is rather
old fashioned in her ideas Of dress. Her
gowns have all the quaintness of twenty
five or thirty years ago, and this rather
pleasing effect is heightened by the man
ner in which she wears her hair, pressed
fla on top and folded neatly down the
sides of her head. Who is she? The
wife OF George William Curtis. She
was n Miss Shaw before her marriage to
the brilliant litterateur.
Mrs. Curtis leads q remarkably simple
life at her pleasant home on Staten Island.
The house is a neat frame cottage. 1t is
surrounded by spacious grounds. in which
are many fine old trees. A winding drive
leads up from the gate to the house. The
appointments of the interior betray at
once the literary man and cultured
scholar. The house is furnished in ex-
IRENE good taste, and an air Of refine
ment and culture is prevalent everywhere
within. Mrs. Curtis is not known in the
literary world except as the wife of MI.
Curtis. She very rarely goes into society,
although she has friends by the score.
Mrs. Curtis pleasant and genial appear
ance does not indicate that she has found
the companionship of a literary man irk-
some or uncongenial.-New York Cor.

The Salt Lake Times warmly approves
the idea Of abandoning the small frontier
posts and concentrating the troops at
available centers like Denver, Cheyenne
and Salt Lake. There can be no doubt
that the plan is a most excellent n yet
it may be worked down TO too fine a
point Take two such posts as WAshakie
and Mckinney in this state. Both Of
these are located $50 miles away from a
railroad and in close proximity to the In
dams. The utility of posts such as these
is apparent to the most careless observers
and their abandonment might work un-
told injury.
As a general rule the scheme of mill
tary concentration Is an extremely good
one, but as in the instances cited, there
are some exceptions to it.

Mr.. Baker of Converse county struck
the proper legislative gait yesterday when
be objected to having the.newly adopted
rules printed. The only change made in
the rules BY the committee was a slight
verbal alteration, and as the rules are
contained in house journals OF the last
legislative session. which have been dis
tributed among the members, there is
absolutely no necessity for having them
printed again.
There will be many Opportunities for
legislative extravagAace in this, the first
state legislature, when Offices are to be
created and salaries fixed, but it should not
be forgotten that the people want the state
started out with the right foot forward.
We cannot afford to have any financial
embarrassment to begin with. As ter
ritory our credit was exceedingly high; it
should not be lowered as a state.
Mr.. Bakers objection cannot, therefore,
be too highly commended. None of the
legislators will lose in popular estimation
by taking economy for their watch

NEPHEW OK FRIEND?
Mrs. Blackjack Wants to Know WI
Tank Her Mrnev

Mrs. Blackjack Wants To Know who
Took Her Money.
Mrs Martha S. Blackjack lived, up to
last Saturday, at $50 BTannan street with
her husband and her nephew, who is said to
be dssolute sort of fellow named Frank
Keller. On the day named she commenced
to pack up her goods and chattels with the
avoWed intention of moving herself, her be-
longings and her husband to Napa. The
aforesaid packing up resulted, however, in
no end Of trouble to Mrs. Blackjack and
several other people as well.
1t seems that the nephew, whom Mrs.
Blackjack regarded with an eye of aifec-
ton, as women are apt to regard incorrigi-
bles, had bosom friend named David Nc
GlilIcudy, who III turn hau young and
buxom wife named Lena, and thus it was
that, through the nephew and his friend
Mrs. Backltach came to know Lena Nc
Gillicudy and to rep0se confidence in her.
One day prior to the moving Mrs. Black
bach in burst Of confidence, so she says.
announced to her dear friend Lena that
she had only that day drawn from the bank
$40. which at that very moment she had
wrapped up in q white cloth and deposited
in the pocket Of a skirt and the skirt care
fully tucked away between the mattresses
of her bed.
SO it happened that when Mrs. Black
leach began TO pack up her things the incOr-
rigible nephew suddenly exhibited signs of
being very tired and refused to touch IL bit
of the furniture, while the friend David
and his wife Lena very kindly volunteered
to help, and did assist to pack up and have
Mrs. Blackleach carried OFF to Napa, where
she wanted to 90. But before the packing
was entirely done with they, too, said they
were tired and quit the job.
After they were gone Mrs Blackjack
discovered, 10 her dismay, that her boarded
treasure was gone. She hurried down to
the Southern Police Station and reported
her loss, accusing McGilicudy and his wife
of taking the money. 50 it was that David
McGllicudy was gathered in last night.
His wife heard of his arrest and took some
sundry little comforts down to him in his
cell like fond and faithful vile, and SO
she in turn was gathered III and locked up.
