The tour concluded with an inspection
of the main building of Richmond Col
lege. Its exact architectural character. it
is not easy to determine, though the archi-
tect has certainly succeeded in producing
pleasing effect. 1t can scarcely be doubt
ed that the general style is that of the
French renaissance, a style that grew out
of a revival Of classical architecture in
France during the time OF Napoleon Ill.
IL was introduced into this country by
American architects that had been trained
ia the Academy OF Fine Arts in Paris.

Not Surprising.

A dispatch from Lucern states that
Henry NJ. Stanley and his wife, the esti-
inable English lady who linked her fate
With his only a year ago, have separated.
This is not surprise The lady has
probably discovered Stanley's true char
aeter, and is no longer dazzled by the
Romance that attached to him because of
iais adventurous journey though the
wjlds of Central Africa.
: Stanley never was true to any person,
country, or cause, and it was not to be
expected that he would remain constant
ia his affection for his wife.
He has not even been true TO himself,
f4r the name he bears is borrowed one
and is not that which he inherited from
has father.
He ran away from his family when a
Issere lad, and led them for years to be-
lave that he was dead.
lie began the Lite war with the CON
fedsrates, and the close found him fight
ing on the federal side quite as vigorous
y as he had formerly fought on the
other
He made all the reputation he had as
an American, and was fitted out and
supported in the search for Livingston
by AN American newspaper, but when it
became advantageous to him to declare
himself an Englishman he had no hes
itancy in shaking off AN allegiance to this
conntry.
He has ostentatiously styled his Afri-
can expedition, ''the rescue of Emin
Bey, " yet by no man is he more hearth
ly than despised by thss German sa, ant
and explorer.
The expedition, while a daring, and
in some respects successful undertaking,
was productive of cruelties which a
really great commander ought to have
been able to have kept down.
But the English made great lion of
Stanley on his return from Africa, and
his marriage with Miss Dorothy Ten
naut was celebrated in Westminster
Abbey with much eclact 1t has been
short and doubtless unhappy union, and
we repeat the result is no occasion for
surprise.

A Modern Home.

A small family consisting of man, wife
and baby, is living in big dry goods
box in an open field near Worcester,
Mass. The woman is twenty-one years
Of age, and her babe seven weeks. She
says about a year and half ago she
married farm laborer at Greendale.
The baby was born in boarding house
and she and her husband had been living
together with the infant in the dry goods
box for two OF three weeks. He hires
the land, and the woman says he intends
to put up better shelter. She has a
brick fire place outside the box, where
she does cooking. The husband is a
cripple and walks with cane. The wo-
man is reported as saying that she is per
fectly satisfied with her lot.

GONE GLIMMERING
MAS THE sOTT0A or TIE WATERMELON
MARKET.

GLUTs REPORTED BECAUSE OF IMPROPER
| observation-disclosures RAILROADS WANT
FREIGHT CHARGES BEFORE A
WHEEL is TURNED--IT MAY
BE TURN ABOUT GAME.
The bottom has dropped out of the
melon market, and as a consequence the
growers, with but few exceptions, are as
blue as the best article of indigo even
offered the public.
What has been feared has come at last.
All the markets are glutted. That is. all
the markets that have any melons at all
are glutted, while the others are literally
crying out for shipments. The result
will be that every man who is loading
will hurry his car forward to the first
market that opens in the hope that he
will beat his neighbor to the tank. as it
goes in the language of the street. That
will glut those markets also, and pandi-
moniun will surely keep company with
the men who have hundreds of acres
planted in melons.
These gluts are due to the lack of
proper distribution, and when they come
everything goes wild and prices go down
ward at rate that is surprising.
So bad has become the glut at some
points that the Central road and the
other roads which reach the melon terri
tory have sent out dispatches to the
agents to refuse shipments to the over
stocked points. The roads have refused.
so bad is the state of affairs, to handle
shipments of melons from connections,
unless the freight charges are prepaid to
destination. As an evidence of tho CON
dition of the markets, Atlanta might be
taken as an instance Ten ears day
can be consumed there ON a maximum
estimate. The Central railroad tele-
graphed yesterday that there were seven
ty-tive cars ON its yards at the close of
business the day before for Atlanta
proper. As many more have probably
gone in since that it was impossible to
stop in time. That gives Atlanta $50
cars, less ten which could have been CON
'umed there yesterday, leaving 140-or
fourteen days supply, OF course the
melons will get stale Not only that
they will stay there and rot so that they
will only be fiji to be dumped into the
river. Shipments will be held up for a
naN ar fHboY, n faIa
nounce that Atlanta can handle "A car,
and in twenty-four hours there will be
no less than fifty headed there.
And that's the way it goes without any
organized effort at properly distributing
the crop.

she might need it, and so she gave I'm
dertaker Clay notice in plenty of time to
get it ready.

A Reliable Assistant.

The poet and the almanac-maker agree
that all seasons have their signs, lpt
those of spring are the most active and
consistent. 1t is then that nature throws
off the lethargy of winter and prepares
to renew her bOunties. 1t is then, also,
that nature attempts to throw off the I'M
pnrities that have lain dormant in the
human system. This effort manifests
itself in several ways-in the increased
activity of old affections, IN the appear
ance of boils, carbuncles and other erup-
tions, and in the various symptoms so
familiar to those who have suffered. 1t
is at this period that nature finds an act
i've assistant in S. S. S., which, in the
work of purifying the blood and
strengthening the system, has proven to
be tle most perfect spring medicine ever
offered to the public.
