BALTIMORE, Md, Feb. G.-Some time
ago a number of ladies' interested in
charity had their attention called to the
restitution ola family in Southwest Balti-
more. The mother said the father drank
and neglected his Ave children. Some of
the ladies induced the man to reform.
He went to a well known minister and
made all sorts of promises, declaring that
he was tired OF the life he had lived and
said that he wanted TO turn over a new
leaf. He told the minister that he was
not married to the woman who bore his
children, and asked for advice. His child
rem were growing up. and, he said, had
never been christened. He thought his
reform would be complete If he could have
them baptized. All the ladies were very
much gratitied. and made arrangement
to have him married and the children
christened. They Bought and made the
little ones clothing, giving them money,
and rigging out the parents in new cloth
ing. After the wedding was celebrated,
and after the children were christened.
something about the mans actions in
duced them to want to know something
OF the mans rec I'd. The investigation
disclosed that the nan and woman had
been married nineteen times and the
children had been christened twenty nine
times. They would live in one section of
the city long enough to get a good start in
the world by getting married and having
the children christened. Then they would
move to another locality and 90 through
the same performance. They were al
way 5 married unier n different name.

Portru,.0

There is no portrait of Christ which
can be pronounced authentic. The jews
were forbidden by their law to make
licensees, and so art, as we understand
the word. scarcely had among them an
existence. There are. however. two por-
traits which have the merit of extreme
antiquity, and were both probably made
at some time in the First century. The
one is cut on an emerald, the work pur-
porting to nav been lone by command
of the Emperor Tiberius. The jewel was
preserved in the treasury of CONSTANT
nople, but in some way fell into the
hands of the Turks before that city was
taken by them. and about 1893 was
given by the sultan to Pope Innocent
VIII as a ransom for the sultan's bro
Their.
Yhe other portrait is on a fine brass
medal discovered in Anglesea, Wales. in
the year lT02. The workmanship is that
of the First century. and n Hebrew in
scription on the reverse declares the pOr-
trait to be that of the prophet Jesus.
The two portraits bear a close resem-
blance, but il is altogether probable that
both are ideal. and that each followed
the description of Christ given in the
well known but not well authenticated
letter of Publius Leutulus. The napkin
portrait called st. Veronica's is much
more modern. and is probably a copy Of
the emerald hkeness.-St. Louis Globe

Brutal Wife Murder.

COLUMBUS, Ca, Feb. 6.-About 10
o'clock last night a brutal tragedy was
enacted in this city, neal the river front,
the victim being Emma Berry, and her
murderer Lorenzo Berry, her husband.
1t appears the parties have been sepa-
rated fer several weeks, the result of some
disagreement, but through the influence
of the murdered woman's brother, Jim
Young, they were brought together, and
yesterday were reconciled. The couple
occupies a room over the store of Jim
Young. where several dodgers lived
Berry came home about 9 O'Clock and
called his wife. who was in the store. verv
affectionstely, to come up stairs. She fol
lowed him. Shortly after 10 o'clock the
cry of a child was heard, and several ne
groes rushed up stairs. where a CHASTITY
sight wa witnessed. Stretched across the
bed, wallowing in blood, was the
unfortunate Emma, with her throat cut
from ear 10 ear. There we're evidences of
a struggle which; however, was not heard
below, and it is not known exactly when
the murder wa committed. A little girl
living in an adjoining room with her
mother, in passing along the hall saw the
bloody woman lying in bed. and gave the
alarm, Berry OvercOat and bat we're on
the floor. The murderer, fearing appro-
hension, lett them in his flight down the
back stairway, from whence he escaped
to the street. The supposition is that he
made for the Alabama side. The police
at once started on his track, and as he is
we'll known the prospects are that he may

The Eight Hour Bill Under
Discussion in the Senate.
A Vote to be Taken on That
Measure Today
Report of the Raum Investi-
eating Committee.
In the Senate.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The senate re
sumed consideration of the house eight
hour bill, and was addressed by Morrill, in
opposition to it. Stewart argued in
favor of the bill
An amendment from the committee on
education Aud labor was read. l. strikes
out OF the house bill the uroviso that it
shall not be operative whenever the court
OF claims shall find the work or service
was performed under any contract, ex
press or implied, and the workman has
been paid therefor the amount agreed
upon.
Sherman said he would vote for the
bill as it Iassed the house. He consid-
cred it an excellent bill, recognizing, as it
did, the general principle that eight hours
were enough for a days work, but not
denying the right OF men to work more
hours if they chose. and make contracts.
Vest moved to amend by inserting the
words without duress or coercion OF any
sort by any officer of the government"
Blair opposed the amendment and suQ-
RC1Atu NuG buDNlllullOu Vi lHt MOTHS u0-
due influence"
Teller spoke in favor OF the principle of
the bill. and opposed Vests amendment
The bill having been laid aside infor
mally. Edmunds offered the order that
after this week the senate daily take a
a recess from 6 to 8 p. u. The order
was laid over on the objection of COckrell
The house amendments to the senate

railroad land grants we're presented and
concurred in.
Wolcott offered a resolution (which was
agreed toy instruc ing the committee on
foreign relations to request from the
Nicaragua Canal company information as
to its affairs, regarding construction,
stockholders. etc.
Consideration OF the eight-hour bill WAS
resumed. INGALLS, inquired whether any
estimate had been made of the amount
involved in the bill.
Cockrall said an estimate made by a
distinguished member of the house gave
the amount as $50. 900. 900.
Vest said Morrill, had given his estimate
as s.. 900, 600, and Secretary Whitney
had stated that for the navy department
alor it would be $4,000, OcO.
Reagan complained that the senate was
absolutely without information as to the
amount involved 10 the bill. The senate
was asked To ass the act blindly, without
even an attempt having been made to as
certain what the liabilities OF the govern
ment would be under It.
ingalls, characterized the bill as a paltry,
quibbling evasion of the real question at
issue.
By Unanimous consent. Blair withdrew
the committee amendment and offered a
substitute for tho house bill-the one
passed bv the senate in the last congress
1t directs the payment OF a days pay for
every eight hours work of government
employees since the eight hour law was en-.
acted. The court of claims is to adjust
claims on that basis.
Dawes moved substitute for that
