sEWED UP HIS POCKETS.
A Young Married Woman's First Ventr
With the Needle.

A Young Married Woman's First Venture
with the Needle.
There is young married woman of my
acquaintance whose first wifely experience
with the needle resulted in capital joke
on her.
She found what appeared to be two i'm
mense rips on the inside of the tails of her
husbands frock coat. and while he was
downtown she carefully sewed them up.
When the young man came home to lunch
his wife met him, coat in hand.
1--WE just mended it," said she. There
were two awful rips in the tails of it.:
'.Let me see," said the husband of the in
dustrous young woman. 81 didn't know
there was a tear in it."
Yes, there was; right there"
"But those are the"
The young man caught the look OF inno-
cent doubt ON his wife's face and stopped.
Eyes, those were fearful rips-thlngs were
getting in them all the time"
And the young man went down TO his
Office and picked out the threads in order to
get at his bank book and few letters that
he had in those tail pOckets.-Kansas City

TO JEss1E,s DANCING FEET.

How, as SPIDERS web Is spun
with subtle grace and art,
Do thy light footsteps, every one,
Cross aud recross my heart
Now here now there, and TO an d ITO,
Their winding mazes turn
Thy fairy feet so lightly so
They seem the earth TO spurn;
Yet every step leaves there behind
A something, when you dance.
That serves TO tangle up my mlud
And all my soul entrauee.
How. as the web the spiders spin
and wanton breczeS blow,
Thy soft aud filmy laces in
A swirl around thee flow.
The cobweb meath thy chin that's crossed
Remains demure y put,
While those are ever whirled and tossed
That show thy saucy foot;
That show the silver grayueSs OF
Thy stockings silken sheen,
And mesh of snowy skirts above
The silver thai is seen.
How, as the spider, from his web.

Do thy sweet measures now anu eOU
SWAY my eurapsured sense.
Thy Tutoring lace, tiny dainty airs
Thy ever charming pose
There are not more aiuTlng snare5

Thy wheeling steps repeat
The love l dare MOTTO thy face

One Of the strongest professional trades
unions In the United States is the Dentists
Protective Association. After due warning
the doors were closed when the membership
had reached about 5000. Every man paid
IN $40, and the resultant fund of $4,000,
together with what may come in from nsw
members is expected to serve the needs of
the organization for an indefinite period.
When member of the society gets into a
lawsuit involving some principle peculiarly
important to the whole body of dentists.
the association assigns counsel and meets
the whole expense of the trial. The conse'
quence is that members of the association
escape such suits as are brought merely to
annoy, and the fund is seldom encroached
upon for counsel fees.-N. Y. Sun.

A Bride of Six Weeks One of the
Victims.
A horrible story of a double murder comes
from Livingstone, Overton County, Tenn,
about fifty miles from the railroad. The
family of William Smith went to church,
leaving two girls, II and 10 years of age, in
the house alone. About o'clock a neigh
Dor noticed an unusual light In the direction
Of Smiths house.
He ran over and found the house rapidly
burning. He arrived just in time to see the
bodies of the two girls, both dead, lying on
the floor in the center OF a downstairs room.
Their faces were covered with blood and
clothing disordered.
So fierce were the flames that the bodies
could not be rescued. The girls had un-
doubtedly been attacked by some miscre-
ants and murdered, after which the house
was set On fire.
Tie family was a very respectable one.
On of the girls had been married about six

Turned over TO the City.

There was little clash of authority
between the ate and city this
morning over the negro VIM. Pet
way, the Atlanta tough, who was al
luded to in the LEAF CHRONICLE
Saturday. The negro was arrested
on a States warrant charged with
representing himself as an officer
and was bound over to the Criminal
court, but being unable to give bond
was jailed. He Was also tried on a
charge of vagrancy in the City court
and was fined $l2 90 or twenty-four
days on the chain gang. OF course
he could not pay his fine and was
sent back tojail. The question then
arose as to which was entitled to the
prisoner first, the State or the city,
Judge Tyler solved the problem,
however, by turning him over to the
city authorities this morning.

Taos. w. KEENE.
Something About The Career Of This
Eminent Tragedian.

The celebrated tragedian, Thos.
w. Keene, is a native Of New York
City, where he was born in 1910,
He made his first appearance as Lu-
cius in Julius Cesar on August 10,
1856, when but lad of fifteen. His
first regular engagement was under
the management of the late John
Brougham, playing minor parts. In
1864 he Travelled with the late j.
III. Hacket. Keene attracted no par
ticular attention until 1865, when at
Newark, his personation of Mercu-
ito so pleased the star 81. Walbaugh)
that he procured him an engagement
as juvenile man at the New York
Broadway, then under the manage
mPnt of Geo. Wood. Here he won
considerable recognition, playing
with such stars as John E. Owens,
f. S. Chanfrau, Mary Provost and
Lucille Western. From this time
until he sailed for England, in 10,
his lab0rs were divided between New
York, Cincinnati and Philadelphia.
His visit to England was for the ben
eft of his health, but he was induced
to play brief engagement.
At Marylebone he opened the
theatre in which Charlotte
Cushman, the Wallacks, Mrs.
MoWatt and E. L. Davenport
achieved their London success. MIR.
Keene was spoken in the most favor
able manner by the English press,
and the late John Oxenford of the
London Times and MIR. Russell of the
Liverpool Mercury, were particularly
enthusiastic in their predictions for
his future. After making a London
success, he obtained offers to appear
in the provinces. In the chief cities
lie played a variety of characters,
with more or less favor. Returning
to America, Mr.. Keene began a ca
reer of uninterrupted professional
advancement. For awhile he played
opposite parts to e. l.. Daven
port, Edwin Booth, Clara Morris, the
late Charlotte Cushman and many
others. He was connected with
some Of the leading theatres in
America, among others the old
California theatre in San Francisco,
of which he was the leading man for
five years, and one of the greatest
favorites that ever appeared on that
stage.
At length in 80, he made his debut
as star in tragedy In the charac-
ters of Orchard I'LL" "Hamlet,"
"Cassius, " "BertucciO," "Richelieu,'
"Macbgth" and "Shylock," he has
won the recognition of the most
thoughtful men and women, and
the substantial admiration of the
multitude.
Mr.. Keene will appear at the
opera-house on next Monday even.

Criminal Court.

In the Criminal court this morning
the case of Leroy Allen, charged
with selling whisky without license
was taken up, This case will con
sumo the greater part of the day
There are several minor cases set fOi
hearing this week and the outlook
now is that no case of much impOr.
lance will come up for several days.
The officers of the court are nearly all
sick. Sheriff Station is confined to
bed at the Jail from a wound re-
ceived under the eye last week, by
his horse running under a thorn tree
with him, and will hardly be able to
attend court this week. John Station,
deputy sheriff, is considerably under
the weather, and Fount Daniel is also
