A Sensational Marriage Abroad.

Helene de Rothschild, the strong headed
young woman who married in spite of her
folks wishes, has begun to repent, and may
already be held up as a horrible example to
insubordinate young women. She was very
rich as her father had died when she was
baby and had left her millions. She made
up her mind, although she was very stout
that the Dutch baron Zuylen loved her for
herself alone. She defied her folks, drew
60,000,000 francs out of the bank for current
expenses, bought fine big house, and went
to take up her abode at the house of the
family doctor, and married the baise2 from
there 1t was grand and sensational, and
Paris admired it very much, though mothers
regretted the bad example.
Now, they are glad, for the Baroness
Zuylen and her husband, just back from
Spain, do not present the picture of perfect
harmony with which they left the house of
the family physician Helene, the very stout
young baroness, finds married life, especially
housekeeping, a bore, and has adopted plan
for Kidding herself of worry that will strike
deep to the hearts of the advocates of
women's rights. She has made the baron
housekeeper, and allows him 50, 900 francs q
month to meet expenses. He can manage as
he likes, but everything but her private ex-
penses must come out of the $4,000 francs,
including the wages of the cook and other
servants, the market bills, his own tailor
bills, etc. Paris, which enjoys such things
very much, spends much time celebrating
funny schedules of Baron Zuylen's probable
expense account. The fun will not last long,
as the stout Baroness soon starts with her
husband and her millions for Nice-Paris

Fnrniture of the Catacombs.

The furniture Of the Catacombs is instruc-
tive and interesting, but most of it has been
removed to churches and museums, and must
be studied outside Articles of ornament,
rings, SEALS bracelets, necklaces, mirrors,
took picks, ear picks, buckles, brooches, rare
coins, innumerable lamps of clay terra cotta)
or of bronze Gwen of silver and amber) all
sorts of TOOLS and in the case of children q
variety of playthings were inclosed with the
dead Many of these articles are carved with
the monogram of Christ or with other
Christian symbols. The lamps in Jewish
cemeteries generally bear a picture of the
golden candestick.)
A great number Of TASKS and cups, with or
without ornamentatioh, are also found,
mostly outside of the graves and fastened to
the grave lids. These were formerly sup
posed to have been receptacles for tears, or,
from the red, dried sediment in them, for the
blood of martyrs But later archeologists
consider them drinking vessels used in the
agapa and obations A superstitious habit
prevailed in the Fourth century, although
condemned by a council of Carthage $50 to

the grave.
The Instruments VI WI uulo WHICH, One 1eI-

covered, and which were made to prove that
almost every Christian buried in the Cata-
oesbs was a martyr, are simply implements
ofhandicraft. The instinct of nature prompts
the bereaved to deposit in the graves of their
kindred and friends those things which were
constantly used by them. The idea prevailed
also. to a large extent, that the future life
was a continuation of the occupations and
amusements of the present, but free from sin
and imperfection.

turned from his desk to relate bit of his re-
cent experience. "There is an Italian woman

THAT afternoon when she came into my
Office looked a little sharply at her and said:

assuming meditative posture; didn't you

was venture, for had merely taken it for
granted that the gentleman who had spoken
OF her was Mr.. Lowenstein, because that was
the name on the sign of the store where he
was standing, and he looked sort of like the
proprietor. But it hit the mark. Yes said
the woman, setting down her basket ami
looking as tickled as could be, that was me.
That was about-let me see-about twenty
three or four years ago. l said. She moved
her lips as II she were making calculation,
and then, all smiles, said: Yes, was there

aided. This was the last feather That
should remember so much about her and even
be able to call her by name gave her the
greatest joy. Tears even came into her eyes,
and we shook hands heartily.
"Then proceeded to make her remember
me- Don't you remember l said, Il used to
go to lunch at that little restaurant Just down
beyond Lowenstein's, and used to buy fruit
of you, and stand and talk to you almost
every dayP She looked at me a long time
and finally imagination did its work, as it al

You never saw anybody more pleased If !

have been happier at meeting me. She told
me all about her family, every member of
which l, of course, remembered more or less
distinctly, and all about her life since then,
which would make an interesting story to
write. Then she made up big bag of fruit

to please her 50 much to do so. Since that ]
have, however, been a pretty regular Gus

OWENS uTopIAN COLONY
They Live In Teuts on the Gulf of Cali
fornia and Are said TO BE Happy

They Live In Tents on the Guu OF CALI
fornia and Are said TO BE Happy
For several months disappointed colOnists
from Owens Gtopian colony, at Topolo-
bampo, on the Gulf of California, have been
finding their way to this city. From their
stories, told with deep feeling, it appeared
that they were the victims of base decep-
ton, and that the alleged Arcadia whence
they escaped was in reality barren desert,
devoid of food water, and all that goes TO
make life worth living
Capt Richard p. Leary, commanding the
United States steamship lroquois, which re-
certify arrived at this port from Callao,
after making stops at Acapulco, Mazatlan
and Topolobampo, says:
"My orders were to visit the Topolobampo
colony and learn whether the reports of the
hardships resulting from lack of provisions
or from other causes were well founded or
not The Iroquois reached Topolobampo last
December. She anchored about eleven miles
off shore and we visited the colony in our
steam launch. 1t was found that most of
the colonists were at Gonzalez, or Bay City,
situated ON the bay a short distance from the
sea. There were about $50 in all, including
men, women and children. We were re-
ceived cordially by them. Every possible
facility was gwen US TO form correct inn
preston of their actual condition. They
were living in tents, there being but one OF.
two permanent buildings in the city In
this vicinity there are two or three farms
upon which number of the colonists were
cultivatIng crops, and the results showed
very sensibly the remarkable salubrty of
the climate and the exuberant richness of the
soil
upon the low banks of the river the need
of irrigation was not manifest, but on higher
lands, away from the stream, it was seen to
be absolutely necessary. Upon the land cul-
tivated, watermelons and sweet potatoes were
growing luxuriantly and little else seemed to
be cultivated. We examined Gonzales City.
FL Suffragio and the Mochis { parish, for
farming land'', and in all these places we
were satisfied of the richness of the soil and
its capabilities for supporting large popula-
ton. The country is a paradise. Without
irrigation it will produce two on three crops
year, while with irrigation there is not q
month in which crops cannot be planted and
gathered. The climate is magnificent never
reaching an extreme of temperature. The
harbor of Topolobampo bay is one of the
finest. There is at low tide never less thar
sixteen feet of water on the bar, and it.
capacity is very great. San Francisco Cor

To Keep Salt from Packing.

and its tendency to pack together in
cruets and containers, may ue entirely
overcome by thoroughly drying the salt
and intimately mingling with it a small

sufficient for the most humid atmQs-

less percentage of the starch is sufficient
