stand.
Gimme pint Of peanuts he said to
the merchant.
He received and paid for them.
'"rhese are stale nuts" he exclaimed
after munching one. Here, take 'em
back. don't want to be swindled In any
such fashion as this"
"Fresha peanutta," protested the Italian.
"Rosta him halfa the hour"
"See here, sir, you are trying to swindle
me and you know it, you miserable inter
jectionl" roared in Perkins, with well
feigned wrath.
The Italian looked at his tormentor in
dismay. He had never had such an epithet
applied to him before, and he was at loss
to know how to proceed So he kept silent
and stared hard at Perkins.
"Oh, you brazen old proposition, you
adverb. you participle you conglomera-
ton of etymology, syntax and prosody.
No wonder you can't talk when you are
brought face to face with such crime as
this. What do you mean anyway, you ex-
traneous old adjective?" And Perkins
scowled at the unhappy merchant 30
fercely that his eyes dropped under the
glare.
"Yes, you know you are guilty, you
common noun, and ! have a notion to
have you arrested"
Gradually the Italian had become angry,
so angry that he evidently did not dare
trust himself to talk, but at the sugges
ton of arrest and imprisonment he grew

| peanuts and refund the money, but Per
kins refused to give them up.

peanutta and use it as evidence, you cow

away chuckling to himself at the success,
that had attended his joke. And still Per
kins is at large.-New York Herald.

ANOTHER RUDOLPH CASE.
Prince Baud Ouin of Belgium Relieved to
Have Taken His Own Life.

BRUSSELS, Jan. 23.-Prince Baudouin,
nephew of King Leopold and heir to the
throne of Belgium is dead. He died in
this city at 5 o'clock this morning. The
cause of his death is alleged to have been
an attack OF bronchitis.
The death of the prince caused a tre-
mendous sensation and created consterna-
ton in all classes in Brussels. There are
all sorts of rumors circulating as the pub
lie was entirely unaware that the prince
was i'll.
The sudden death caused the most
alarming rumorS to be circulated Oh all
sides, and these rumors grew in import as
the day progressed. 1t was openly assert
ed that the death of the popular Belgian
prince was q repetition of the sad cIrcum
stances surrounding the death of the
Archduke Rud. lph, the heir to the Aus
trian throne, who met his death in such
mysterious manner on Jan. 80, 1889. 1t
was added that a beautiful German gov
erness. who had been recently banlshed
from the Belgian court by order of King
Leopold. had been in some way connected
with the death OF Prince Baudouin. Ru-
NOR also had it that there had been an in
II iASuS idStlhS IL lOhe billlO OcbhCSh b4AS
governess and the prince and the result OF
their liaison is said 10 have been the birth
OF a child. In any case, the death OF
Prince Baudouin il associated with many
stories and speculations.
The court physicians in the death GER
tifcate announce that Prince Baudouin's
dea was caused by hemorrhage follow
ing severe attack of bronchitis. The
physicians also assert that the prince
caught chill while watching at the bed
side of his sister, the Princess Henriette,
who has been i'll for some time past. But
these statements are far from convincing
the people that the real cause of the
death of Prince Baudouin has been given
to the pubic and the startling rumOrs al
ready ref rred to are popularity believed
to be founded on a solid basis of fact of
some description.
The bro her of Prince Baudouin, Prince
Albert Leopold lent Marie Meinrad, who
was born April S. 1870, is now heir to the
throne of Belgium. Prince Albert is
studying under the direction of a number
of tutrrs in preparation for passing his eX-
aminations previous TO entering upon
a military career.
Prince Baudouin Leopold Philippe
Marie Charles Antonio Joseph Louis was
the son of the Count of Flanders brother
of King Leopold. Prince Baudouin was
born in this city on June 3, 1869. He was
a captain of Belgium carbIniers and a
captain of Prussian cavalry, being at
tached to the Second regiment of Han
oyerian dragons

A RumOred Comb nation Against the

MADISON, Wis, Jan. pa story has
been started here that combination had
been entered into between the democratic
members of the legislatures of Wisconsin,
Indiana and other Northern states which
show the democrats are in the majority to
adopt tactics OF some of the southern leg
islatures and oppose legislation for worlds
fair appropriations, If the republi-
can senators persisted in their
support of the federal election bill.
Following this came the report this
afternoon that the Z. s. senate had
knocked the bill out, but the same was
not considered authentic and the gossip
was lively after the session was finished
tonight 1t is rumored that joint resolu-
tion to express the idea above mentioned
has been prepared. A bill will soon be
introduced in the senate to make an ap-
preparation for the Wisconsin exhibit,
and many of the democratic members say
the talk is strong of beating it if the bill
so obnoxious to Southern democrats
passes congress.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Jan. 2e.-The snow
storm of Saturday night and yesterday
morning was very severe Throughout the
whole of this section OF the state. There
was no communication by telegraph or
local telephone wires, all being grounded.
Electric light wires are down and the
city is in darkness. In the country
districts considerable damage was done
by the weight of snow breaking down
fruit trees, roofs of barns, etc. About
o'clock yesterday morning the horses at
tached to an omnibus in Wilkesbarre
stepped on a fallen wire on the public
square and received severe shock. They
were hurled to the ground and at first it
was thought they had been killed. The
omnibus was sOverturned, but no passengers
were in it and the driver escaped injury.

A coLo-BLoooED MURDER.
The Wife and Her Paramour XIII an Aged
Husband.

BosTON, Jan. 24.-There was mystery
surrounding the death of Elbridge g..
Reed at Salem. n. H., on Thursday night,
and there is but little doubt expressed
that the men now confined in the police
station in Haverhill-Dan Murphy, alias
the Masher, and Frank Woods-are
murderers. The developments of the
past twenty-four hours have shown that
there are good grounds for the statement
that the murder was the most brutal OF
any ever perpetrated in New Hampshire.
The motive of the murder, the police say,

who, if not an accom3lice to the deed. was,
they claim, the instiSator of it. This
cause was infaluation for Dan Muir

Salem during the past season and
whose name has been freely connected
with that of Mrs. Reed by the townspeo-
pie. 1t was evidently premeditated and
carefully planned means OF getting the
old man out If the way and installing
Murphy as master of the farm, as he has
often boasted he soon would be. From
the police it is learned that they have
evidence that the two men were carried
from this city in a wagon TO the
house of Mrs Reed about 8
o'clock on Thursday evening that Mrs.
Reed came TO The door and ere ted them,
giving Murphy the additional welcome Of
a kiss that soon ait r they entered the
house, whether from any real cause or
merely for one made "a pretext, is not
known, Mr.. Reed and the two visitors got
into a quarrel, in which the former was
choked and beaten and kicked until he
was dead. His body was then dragged into
the barn and left, where it was found.

GAVE UP THEIR SKIN
In Order That One of Their Number Might
lie Hea ed.


sPRINaFrE1D. O., Jan. 26.-Fourteen ma
sons of Clark lodge, No. I01, F. a. NJ, of this
city, assembled at the residence of DIR. +.
@. Runyan yesterday afternoon at o'clock
and submitted to the operation of havir e
taken each from his left arm portion Of
skin, which was deity transferred to the
right leg of DIR. Runyan. DR.. Runvan, a
prominent dentist here, has been a sufferer
since childhood from an injury to mis- left
shinbone. Several months ago the doctor
contracted a cold, which settled in his
weakened leg. An examination by local
physicians revealed the fact that portion
of the tibia had become deadened, con-
ditiOn called necrosis of the bone.
Three weeks ago Drs. Sevs, Bncking-
ham and Bald in performed an operation
of chiseling off this dead bone. This left
an exposed surface four inches long by
two inches wide. The sore had been hesl-
ing nicey, but in such cases. while q GER
tain soft tissue is formed, nature does not
provide a new kin. The tissue is very
tender, and is likely to become easily in
famed. The sore was too wide TO be COW
cred by the skin growing from the sides.
1t was thought advisable to try the grating
operation.
The matter was broached in the Masonic
lodge of which Dr. Runyan is member
on Friday night, and the following men
responded: Edward Hartford, Samuel
Hartford, John Webb, Thomas Lott, Charles
Schaefftr, o. F. Hypes, William Ramsey,
Charles Sykes, TheO. Troupe, Frank Cob
lentz, Joseph Beck. c. b. West, :. j. Laf-
ferty.
A small piece of skin the size of a fin
ger-nail was cut from the arm near the
shou der, dipped in solution of carbolic
acid to destroy possible microbes and then
placed on the sore eg. 1t is thought that
the doctor will RAPIDLY recover.
