Victoricn Sardou Is without doubt the

dramatic history. It's his fertile brain
which has given TO the world successive

according TO the popular idea, his great

TO its early production IL has never be-

some OF his later achievements. THE
ENiles' was written nearly thirteen
years ago before the old Car had been
a~ssassinated by the Nihilists; before
the Russo-Turkish war; before and
long before Count Tolstoi and George
KEENAN,. the American explorer
and lecturer, had made known TO the
civilized world the terrible horror,
committed under an %autocrocv whose
very existence was hourly threateupo
by the natural growth of economic
ideas in the popular mind.
Still, thirteen years ago is not "A long

Thought it Was an Earthquake.

FINDLAY, O., February 2l.-This morn
ing lightning struck nitro slycerine maya
zine on the Stoker farm, three miles north
west of this city, in which was stored fifty
cans of the explosive. The shock which
followed the explosion was something ire
mendous and distinctly felt in Lima, Ere
mont. Fostoria and all cities and towns
within radius of fifty miles, creating the
impression that an earthquake had con-
vulsed the whole of northern Ohio. The
only thing left to indicate the place of the
is a hole in the ground big enough
to bury three-stOry house. The tinan-
cial loss is not great. II was at first re-
ported that five tramps who had taken
shelter from the storm in the building had
been blown up. but nothing about the
scene of the explosion bears out this story.

their fourth son is a baby OF but eighteen

Mrs. Carroll has asked the courts for a

A Louisville Bank Assigns.

Savings bank assigned today to the Ger
mania Trust company. No defnIte state
ment of it's assets is vet obtainable. 1t
had deposits of probably 5000, 900. The
assignment was not expected. During
the strinRency last year the bank required
the aid of the clearing house, but on the
LIST of January Its statement showed de-
posits OF 81 250, 600. President Kreiger,
by careful management, succeeded In re-
storing the confidence Of the depositors.
In March, however, the failure of the
Schwartz bank once more startled the de

down until July |, when the directors
hoped the crisis was inally passed. Then
came the Falls City failure. and the de-
pOsitOrs were once more alarmed. The

A farmer once told the Listener that
there was nothing in the world that
would keep crows out of a field Of young
corn except a living man or good sized
boy with a gun. He had tried all man
ner Of scarecrows that eve were in
vented, and hung strings about in all
sorts of ways, and the wise birds came
in and pulled up the corn just the same.
There was once a time, when people first
thought about it, when a white string
around a field would keep out crows
they thought it was a trap. But it took
the whole tribe only a year or two to
see through this device,
A dead crow hung up by the feet will
scare away some crows-no doubt fe-
males, of a superstitious turn of mind
but 1t won't keep off the canny old
agnostics among them. A farmer whom
the Listener knows once had a shepherd
dog who, at the command "Go down
and keep the crows out Of the cornfield, 4"
would take charge of the field and keep
away every bird of them effectually.
Dogs, especially c%ollies, might be trained
easily to perform this duty, though oc-
c~asionally, no doubt, the crows would
divide their forces and give the dog
more work than he could do. Few Of
our farmers, by the way, realize the
amount Of help in their work hat they
can get out of agood dog.-Boston Tran.

and his wife, nee GENERAL D~EPEYsTER.
Livingston, have lived together over fifty
years, that their golden wedding was re-
Gently celebrated with great pomp, and
that their sons attained to high honors in
the war for the Union, is it any wonder
that all New York and a big section of
America outside are greedy for the partic-
ularsi
1t is n sad fact. Mrs. Livingston Depey-
tter has taken refnge with her brother,
Louis Livingston, and applied for a judi
cial separation, averring that for thirty
five years she has suffered constantly in
creasing abuse; that the general is ~profane,
tyrRnnical, insulting and On occasion dis
gustinEly vulgar in his abuse, and that his
pet name for her in their domestic discus
sions has long been You gray headed old
fool" His son, General Johnston De
peyster. who raised the first Federal flag
in Richmond in 1865, confirms all this and
adds some more on his own account, and
the old mans grandson, John Toler, has
also left him, declaring that his temper is
simply ~unbearable.
Let the courts decide as to the facts. 1t
is the family history that makes the matter
of thrilling interest. Johannes Depeyster,
Of Harlem, Holland, of French Huguenot
parentage, emiRrated to New Amsterdam
among the first Dutchmen, obtained n fine
grant of land, founded n truly princely
family and died full of honors in 1885. BY
