An Indignant Justice.

Justice Nichols, of Independence, is
threatening to sue for damages, a couple
who promised to be welded in his court
because they were married in Justice
Prewitt's court. He claims it was q
breach of contract.
On Tuesday night, so Justice Nichols
says, he was approached by gentleman
who contracted for his services at mar
riage to take place the next afternoon.
The time drew near and the justice sat
prim and neat waiting in his office for
the coming of the couple. He had filled
the application and had it ready for the
signature of the prospective groom. The
appointed time came and passed, but the
couple that he waited for never came.
Meantime, in the Office of Justice Prev
lit, the couple were quietly married.
They received their certificate and hap
PLY returned home. The justice was
still waiting expectant when informed
that the couple had already been married
and returned home. He declared his in
tention of bringing suit against the groom
for damages and breach of contract.
The justice is emphatic in his deter
mination and says he will makeit test
case. kansas City Times.

Redeeming Destroyed Money.

Undoubtedly the redemption division
does sometimes get swindled, though not
often. The women experts employed to
examine the money sent in are wonder
fully skillful. 1t is marvellous how deft-
ly they will poke over a few charred
fragments of notes and set an accurate
valuation upon them. The other day a
poor woman in Ohio sent a wee corner
of a twenty dollar bill, with pitiful
story about her baby having burnt it.
Hardly more was left than a fragment
large enough to show the figures of the
denomination, but she will get the
money back.
Mice are great destroyers of paper cur
rency, and some of the most hopeless
specimens that come in have been chewed
up for beds by those little rodents.
Sometimes pillbox full of indistin-
guishable ashes will arrive. accompanied
by certificate stating the amount rep
resented. OF course such case is hope
less. 1t is usually kitchen stove catas-
trophe. Washington Letter.

The Monkey Stole the Angels wings.

Ahe Nlouhoy oIoto TIC <AHBciS
The first week Of the circus closed with
en- immense audience, whose liberal ap-
plause stimulated the performers to sur
pass their usual excellence.
The audience was treated to an entire
ly new version of the "Dawn of Chris
tianitv," the brilliant finale OF the "Fall
Of Rome" when Jocko, the dogfaced
baboon, took an unexpected part. Jocko
enjoys considerable freedom, and during
the performance he slipped unnoticed
from his perch in the dressing room and
emerged from door in the heather tenn
pie into the glare of the lime lights while
Christianity was dawning.
Jocko recognized his dear friend Nine.
Bumond posing as an angel with glisten-
ing wings, and in mischievous spirit
he snatched the wings, then turned and
fled precipitously down the Appian Way.
Nine. Bumond pursued her departing
wings, and the rest of the angels, con-
vulsed with laughter, fled into the inte-
rior city. Then the spectators applauded
the race between the baboon and the
wingless angel until they disappeared
within the gates Of Rome. Hereafter
Jocko will be obliged to confine his genius
to his own speciality, in which he is en-
inently Observation-Disclosures Press.

Feet and Hand. LIE a Duck.

A remarkable operation has just been
completed at the Pennsylvania hospital
in the case of Pedro Galan, Mexican
sailor lad to whom nature has given
fingers and toes joined by web similar
to that of duck.
Galan is about eighteen years of age,
and last winter he arrived at this port as
a cabin boy, afflicted with his curious
deformity. At the time he suffered from
pneumonia and became at once an object
of interest to the hospital doctors. 1t
was noticed that he had six fingers on
each hand, Joined by web, and seven
toes on his right foot and six toes on his
left foot, joined by web.
The nails of Galan's toes are decidedly
peculiar, and at first sight he appears to
have three distinct nails, as the nails of
his toes have three ridges. His large toe
on each foot is about two and half
inches in width
Such was the strange patient that en-
listed the sympathies of the doctors.
Galan was the first to speak of his pecul-
iarity, and he requested that he might
be operated upon. His left hand was
operated on in July last, and then Galan
pluckily requested that his right hand
should be attended to.
DR.. Morton went to work on the pa
TENTS right hand, and ON Wednesday
cut the web between the fingers and then
sewed up the ragged edges of the web.
1t has not been determined to operate
upon Galan's feet at present and proba-
bly, when he does leave the hospital his
feet will remain in what assuredly is
their natural condition.
Galan will remain at the hospital some
time yet, and is handy man in the
wards. In appearance he resembles an
Indian, and is very much pleased with
his life in Pennsylvania SO far. Already
photographs have been taken of his feet,
and the pictures have been viewed with
interest by the medical men to whom
they have been submitted. Washington

EVANGELISM and NIustaches.

1t came near being rule of the Evan
gelical association that mustaches must
go. The Rev. M. Pftzinger introduced
a resolution to the effect that the minis
tsrs of the Evangelical association should
not wear the fashionable mustache. His
resolution, offered in a facetious way,
was put to q vote and came within a
few votes of passing.
Bishop Esher favored the motion of
Mr.. Pftzinger and said that if mustach-
es were worn at all they should be kept
short, especially for the receiving Of the
holy ent.-Indianapolis Sentinel.

Captain ]. S. Durham, a vesselman on
the great lakes, has presented scheme
by which the waters of the great inland
seas will be prevented from continuing
to lower as they are reported to be doing
His plan is very simple one. In the
Niagara river below Tonawanda, where
navigation ends, he would dump many
thousand boat loads of large stones. 1t
might be that some steel structure could
also be extended into the river from each
side to narrow the channel. The result
would be to lesson the flow of water
from the lakes and thereby increase the
stage of water at all points. The pro-
posed dam would be comparatively in
expensive. The question is largely an
engineering one.-Toronto Globe.

In freight train which passed
through Hannibal on the st. Louis, Keo-
kuk and Northwestern line from Bur-
lington to st. Louis were the celebrated
Walker twin steers. These cattle were
registered at the Chicago exchange as
the largest in the world. They were
raised in Jasper county, Mo-, by Mr..
Walker. Mr.. Walker values them very
highly, and will not ship them over a
railroad unless the railroad insures them.
The railroad company had them insured
for $4,000. They are years of age, 10
feet inches long, ID feet around the
chest or heart, feet 2 inches across the
hips. Their aggregate weight is S,O40
pounds.-Cor. st. Louis Globe-Demo-

Library and Museum of War Relics.

Plans have been drawn for the cree
ton in this city, by the Military Order
of the Loyal Legion, of a library and
museum Of war relics, which would in
time become a most valuable institution.
The history of the war has not yet been
written, and probably cannot be until
all who took part in the struggle have
passed away, and then it must be writ
ten by some patient, disinterested his
torian, who shall examine all the evil
dence on disputed questions of fact,
which he can do only by the aid of a
great reference library. The Loyal Lee
gion is engaged in national undertake
ing, but it is one of peculiar local inter
est to Philadelphia, where it is proposed
to erect this grand memorial of the war.

Charles King, of Little Falls, has done
a very commendable thing by paying
$4,000 to the operators that worked in
the Saxony mill at the time of the fail
ure of A. & G. King, which occurred in
1878, during a depression of the knit
goods trade. Mr.. King was not obliged
to pay this money, but he always said
that the first time he controlled the
amount of capital that would pay off the
wages due at the time of their unfortu-
nate failure he would meet all demands.
One hundred and three persons, who
were working in the mill on the day of
suspension, have been made happy by re-
ceiving checks for their back wages A
few Of the old employees have moved
away and some are dead. The heirs Of
deceased operatives. will be paid the
amount due them.-Utica On. ~ Her

The First Home of the Flag.

The little old building on Arch street,
above Second, where Betsey Ross made
the first flag of stars and stripes for the
United States army, is likely to be re-
moved bodily and taken to Chicago for
exhibition at the Worlds fair. The
building is owned by Mrs. Amelia Mund,
and she has been asked to name price
for the property, the prospective pur-
chaser being western gentleman. The
Pennsylvania Historical society desires
to buy the house and remove it to the
park, alongside of PENIS house, but it
has not the money available. Mrs. Mund
would prefer that the old house remain
in Philadelphia Philadelphia Record.

Friday, as Charles Hoxie and T. w.
Ford were up in the woods near Ebeene
lake, hunting, they separated to meet
later, when Hoxie, who is about seven
teen years old, came in contact with an
old bear and two cubs, and they made
for him. He, seeing it was useless to
run, stood his ground and discharged
his rifle, killing the old bear at the first
shot. Then with two shots more he
killed one of the cubs, the other getting
away. Pretty good for boy all alone

81. c. Matheson is an English engineer
who has been in the employ OF the Chi
nese government for four years. ''Some
months ago." said he, ''there was great
deal of trouble between the natives Of
Formosa and the Chinese. The former
are savage fellows and object to the en-
croachments OF the latter. There was,
and is yet for that matter, an unwritten
law among the natives of Formosa which
forbids any young man to marry until
he has cut off two Chinese heads, and a
little anxiety to plunge into matrimony
causes a reduction in the Chinese popu-
lation. This was one cause of the trou-
