The Elements of Comfort.

The young husband who exclaimed
half in jest and half in earnest: IF
we only had few less curtains and a
more comforts!" struck the keynote Of
unhappiness in many home. 1t is on
the basis of what others expect of us,
instead of what will really contribute
most to the enjoyment of the family,
that wa furnish our houses, and spread
our tables and clothe our children and
entertain our friends. This clouds cur
vision as to the relative value of things.
We forget that a woman Of sunny
temper and unruffied nerves, presiding
over a table of the plaincst fare, gives
a charm to the meal which the most
delicate viands and the eostliest china
cannot furnish If they be provided at
the expense of worry and fatigue on the
part of nervous, overtaxed mistress.
Contentment, repose, cheerfulness, free
dem from petty anxieties-these are
some of the essential elements In q
happy home. Let us beware of sacri-
icing them to artificial standards as to
dress ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

some interesting Developments in the
Perrien Case.
DETROIT, March 30.-Fresh interest has
been added to the famous abduction case
by Perrien's lawyers offering $4,000 for
the arrest and conviction of the abductors
or evidence that would lead to that end.
Perrien would have offered the reward
the day after his return, but Chief of Po-
lice Bergman advised him against doing
that.
A break has been made between the
Chief of Police and the Perrien family,
because the former has accomplished
nothing. Lawyers Maston, Cowles, and
Jerome, who have charge of Perrien's
interests, have drawn up charges to pre-
sent to the Police Commissioners against
the Chief, asserting that he neglected to
work out clues that they furnished and
claiming that had he done SO Perrien's
abductors would have been captured the
first day. So far as can be learned the
police are as much in the dark as they
were the first day, although john Lyons,
who keeps n livery stable and always goes
bail for the crooks, is strongly suspected
Of knowing who they are.
Lyons was called upon by Perrien's
lawyers and grew angry, telling them
they had better cease trying to catch the
abductors, or the first thing Perrien knew
he would turn up missing again and
would either give up his money or die,
Perrien and his son-in-law applied to the
Mayor for permission to carry Feyolvers,
and it was granted.

eight cities of 100000 inhabitants or

than one city of million inhabitants or
over; we have three. In fact all

SPEAKING of rising young men, the
career of John Silver, who has lately
succeeded in borrowing about all the
money there was in the collapsed WASH
ington national bank in New York, is a
case in point. A few years ago this
Silver was engaged in backing boots.
Now he has succeeded in bamboozling a
bank president, and obtaining astound-

lateral. His career would not have
been so distinguished had the bank

A Drunken Debauch Results in Murder.
STEUBRNvnLR, Ohio, March 30.-Amos
Weems was shot and instantly killed in
this city last night by Horatio c. Cald-
we'll. They are both young men and had
been on a drunken debauch together all
day Saturday. Caldwell took Weems to
his home to sleep, and, while the husband
was sleeping off his intoxication, Woems
attempted to assault Caldwelrs wife. He
did not succeed in his designs, Mrs. Cald-
we'll resisting vigorously. Weems then
left the house. Yesterday the wife told
her husband of the affair, and Caldwell
armed himself with revolver and went
in search of Weems. Meeting him, Cald-
we'll shouted "Hello," and then opened
Ere upon Weems. Four shots were fred,
two Of them taking effect, one in Weems'
lungs and the other in his side. Weems
died inside of five minutes. Caldwell

IT is not at all remarkable that those
bankers who are endeavoring to supply
Germany with all the gold she needs
should ask for bar gold from this gov
eminent. Bar gold is pure gold, while
coined gold is alloyed. Then again, bar
gold loses virtually nothing in handling,
the handling being infrequent, while
the coin gold soon wears down below
the standard weight, the loss falling on
whoever last has it in his possession.
The Chinese on the Pacific coast and
certain peculiar colonists on the east
side of New York make ill-gotten
money by shaking new gold coins
together in tight bags of channels leath-
err. They then spend the coins and sell
the dust that has worked off them. 1t
scarcely seems credible, yet it is true
that if a million dollars in So and $40
gold pieces were shipped to Europe to
morrow the mere rolling of the ship and
the pulsations of its engines would wear
off hundreds of dollars worth of the
soft and precious metal. We Americans
use an alloy of one-tenth copper in
making our coins-to harden them.
The English use less-one-tweIfth.
Sometime ago.the English government
filed two spinning cylinders with coin,
one with ours and one with theirs, and
set them both revolving. They &C.
knowledged that theirs wore away
much more under the shaking than ours
did, but of course they were too con.
sentative to change their standard.

WHILE the chances seem against any
compromise of the muddle at Hartford it
may be noted that the senate has offered
half dozen bills looking to that end
while the house has presented but two.
OF course all the democratic measures
insist that their officers shall be seated
before the courts are called upon to in
vestigate the case. In view of the fact
that they have on the face of the returns
clear majority this demand does not
appear unreasonable. However, it is
believed that the house will not consent
to do this, and will this week order re-
cess till the early autumn. Such an out
