Some remarks have recently passed be-
tween Mrs. JEF1ERsoN DAVIS and Gen. MILES
regarding Gen. MILrs's treatment Of the late
Mr.. DAVIS while the latter was imprisoned In
Fortress Monroe. Mrs. DAVIS alleges that Gen.
MILES. who was In command then and there.
subjected her husband to various improper
and unnecessary indignitieA among them

DAVIS 10 certainy inaccurate so far ~ the cell

only unwelcoms reminders Of captivity were
the iron bars run across the window and the
two soldiers that stood against the two doors

room In the rear. where an oficer and other
soldiers were always TO bs found. We may
presume that Mrs. DAvIs's other charges were

The Antiquity OF Chess.

The origin Of chess is shrouded in
mystery. There is but little doubt,
however, that its birthplace was in In.
dia, and that it is an offspring of a game
called chaturanga. which is mentioned
In oriental literature as in use fully 200
years before the Christian era From
India chess spread into Persia, and
thence into Arabia, and ultimately the
Arabs took it into Spain and the rest Of
western Europe. The game was in all
probability invented for the purpose OF
illustrating the art Of war
The Arab legend upon this point Is
that IL was devised for the instruction OF
young despot by his father, a learned
Brahmin, to teach him that king, not.
withstanding his power, was dependent
for his safety upon his subjects. The
Greek historians credit the invention o.
the game to Palamedes, who, they claim
devised II TO beguile the tedium Of tn,

to the conclusion they had done wrong 10

speaking, but would quite likely have for

on duty, the stranger had not again

their slips the man in hurry Is gather
ing himself, like Mr.. Micawbar, to
make spring." AT risk of life and
its comforts the misguided crank will
jump ten or twelve feet to get off the
boat, and then run six blocks to catch
car, though he is not pressed for time,
and another car will be on in few mo-
mentS.
No greater inf1iction has ever de-
scended on the head of suffering man
than the crank who sits behind you in
the theater and tells his best girl just
what is going to happen next. The
nine plaques Of Egypt were bad enough
in their way. but Pharaoh's folks man
aged to escape the theater crank, and
perhaps that's why mummies of de-
parted Egyptians are often found with
smiles outlined on the leathery-looking
faces that were once fraught with life.
There is no punishment that can be
conceived to equal in intensity the effect
produced by being seated alongside of
one of these theater cranks. While you
are cogitating as to how the hero of the
play is going to get out of the dreadful
woven around him: while you are en-
deavoring to restrain the tear that
comes unbidden TO your eye when
you see the proud daughter of
an earl thrown out in the snow
storm with her Little-Lord-Fa
looking eldest boy by her side, and are
wondering why she has not got on a
hat, the crank back of you leans over
to his girl and loudly hIsses-it is too
painful for whisper-"Ob! she'll get
back home in the next act and marry
the honest working lad, and the villain
will be lynched." OF course, he tells
the truth, but you do not go to the
theater to hear stories told; you wanted
tc see some acting performed. 1t is all
spoiled by this fend.
All Sorts of Cranks.
There are other cranks peculiar to
this town who are nearly as insuffer-
able. There is the man who walks
along the crowded streets in one direc-
ton and looks the other way. Of
course he bumps against nine out
of every ten people he meets. but that
does not worry him any. He will walk
along block while he looks at a safe
being hoisted on the other side of the
street, and will not seem to be bit put
out at the scowls Of anger directed
