NEXT year is leap year. Any year is
leap year which can be divided by -four
without a remainder; 1892 can be so III
vided.-EUdnSton Ne,os.
This is correct except as regards the
years concluding a century. when they
must be divioible by 400. The year 1900,
although divisible by four, will conse-
quently not be a leap year. One hundred
years later, In the year 1000, there will be
a leap year, but there will probably be

The Tortures of the InquisItion
Inflicted by the dread Torquemada have
abominable prototypes In the shape OF
chronic rheumatism and neuralgia. At
tack these agonizing complaints before
they reach the chronic stage with the su-
perb blood depurent, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which will assuredly expel their
virus from the lite stream. To procrasti-
nate Is to encourage the growth of incipi-
ent rheumatism, which rapidly tightens
its grip upon the system. 1t is the very
octopus of diseases, mt painful indeed is
the clasp of its dreadful tentacles. Be
prompt, therefore. take time by the lore
lock, always remembering that both rheu-
mats and govt, close relatives, are dan
gerous as well as painful. Debility, chills
and fever. bilious remittent, dyspepsia,
constipation, liver complaint,
and kidney diseases succumb to the Bit
tiers. Appetite and the ability to sleep
well are improved by it.

Smith Testifies as TO His Wife's
Custody of Dama's Will.

Julius P. Smith was called again to the
witness stand in the Dana will contest yes
terday for cross-examination. He remem-
bered that on the evening of Dama's death
his wife returned from the latter's house
and informed him of the circumstance. He
thought she was trifle d scomposed in
manner, but she did not shed any tears. She
Informed him of her having the custody of
the will aud asked what she should do with
it, aud he replied that the proper person
would undoubtedly call for it,
Mr.. Smith was very much surprised when
he learned that his wife had had the will
for SO long time without apprIslng him OF
the fact. She had told him that she was
surprised when Dana gave her the dOcu-
ment TO keep, and had asked Dana why he
did not deposit it in his vault The reason
he gave was that another had a key to the
box, ana that he thought it would be as well
to give it to her. She kept the document
between two mattresses.
The reason for her not disclosing the Gus
tody Of the will was never topic OF discus
sion between the witness and his wife. She
had net taken it without protest, and the
witness had ascertained subsequently thai
Rev. Dr. Worcester was the one holding q
duplicate key to the vault.
Witness then reiterated what was said in
the conversation between Messrs. French
aud Burtis and his (Smith's) wife, and re-
membered having said that he did not de-
sire the nature of the bequest to the lattel
to be made public. The reason for the in
terview with Randall and Russ in Boston
was that his attorney, j. Il. Smith, had ad
Ylsed him to have one.

who always treated him with paternal

disinherited Henry.
