A Singular Suit.

Nine months ago popular actress,
the wife of a comic actor named
Pauly, committed suicide, and a
newspaper published an account of
the private life of the couple, alleging
that the unfortunate woman shot
herself in sheer despair at the i'll
treatment she had received at her
husbands hands. Copies of the ar
ticle were laid on the grave of Nine
Pauly and were there found by her
husband. He brought an action for
defamation of character against the
owner of the newspaper, but before
the case came up for trial M. Pauly,
through grief, committed suicide by
shooting himself.
His mother, anxious to clear his
memory from any suspicion of stain,
asked permission to carry on the case
in the place of her deceased son, and
the editor had to defend himself
against accusations which were prac-
tically raised by man who had been
dead for several months. He was
found guilty and sentenced to three

Most congressman are overrun with
letters and dispatches from people

for documents, books, stationery, etc.
The sublime gall displayed by some
of these citizens is truly wonderful,

following postal card deserves the
cake:

by the first assistant secretary of the
interior department, saying that you
would get for me all the public docu
ments which are published for distri-
button and information, please send
me all such documents of every de
partment and branch thereof of the

complete set as possible of penalty
envelopes and cards and wrappers.

A Murder in Iceland.

A murder has been committed in
Iceland. A young fellow has killed
his betrothed in a fit of jealousy. The
whole of the 10000 inhabitants of the
island are deeply moved by the event.
1t is fifty-six years since like deed
was done. We here in America,
made callous by the constant recur-
renee of crime, cannot realize the
horror such an event inspires in the
simple Icelanders, among whom
crime is as rare as learning is general,
who. without school boards, not sell
dom understand several languages,
whose richest man boasts of no more
than 81, 500 a year, and among whom
abject poverty is unknown. - Yankee

The Question OF Pockets.

The question of a pocket in the
glove fitting skirts Of the moment is
one which distrscts the woman who
insists upon one. Some women do
not. but pin their faith and put their
bandkerchiefs in their chatelaine
bags Even these have a disadvan-
tage. worn too constantly. They
win rub and leave a not fresh look
ing place when they are taken of.
A suggestion Is to make separate
pockets of the skirt material and tie
about the waist before the gown is

A Possible Help for Women.

Darning stockings, with the at
tendant horrors of mending and sew
ing on buttons, represents a batch OF
work which comes regularly every
week to be done, and is a sore trial
to the woman who longs for the time
it takes that she may give it to better
things. Yet she knows these tasks
are necessary, and that they must be
accomplished for the comfort and
well being of the family in her
charge.
Now there must surely be plenty
of women who cannot do finished or
high class work, yet to whom mend
ing and stocking darning, clearing
up of rooms and busting would be
light and agreeable work, women
who, having ample time, would be
willing to do such important yet
trivial homework for the small sum
of money the service is worth. They
need not be highly educated or very
young women; they need only be
willing, quick and ready to do well
any and every trife which comes up
for somebody to do. There are GER
tainly plenty of places waiting for
just such workers.
We hear much of the women who
are starving in making shirts at
three cents apiece and trousers at
five cents a pair. The tales are too
well authenticated to be doubted.
But surely the work above suggested
would be easier, pleasa1iter and more
profitable to the women who are
keeping soul and body together on
such pittance as that, -Harper's
Bazaar.

The Army and Its Head.

The army consists of ten cavalry
regiments, five artillery, twenty five
infantry. an engineer battalion, re-
.cruiting parties, Indian scouts, the
West Point academy, a signal corps
and the hospital service. Its total
strength is about 81, 500 men, divided
approximately as follows: Cavalry,
$500; artillery, 1000; infantry, 10,
600; the West Point academy, 500;
engineer force, 400; the special serv-
ices, 5000. These are occupied in
garrisoning the various forts, arse
nails and supply stations in the coun-
try and in overawing turbufSnt In
dams. Scarcely 10000 of them could
be concentrated to serve in one body
outside the boundaries of the republic.
The head of the army, General
Schofield, was born in Chautauqua
county, New York, in 1881, gradu-
ated from West Point in 1858, and
became professor of physics in Wash
ington university, St. Louis, in 1860
He was commissioned brigadier gen.
eral of volunteers in 1861 and served
through the civil war, rising to the
rank of major general. He took
part in Sherman's march to Atlanta
and opposed Hood at the battle of
Franklin In 1868 he acted as secre-
tary of war -Daniel D. Bidweu in

The Weight Of a Grain.

The smallest measure of weight il
use, the grain, has its name from
being originally the weight of grain
of wheat. A statute passed in Eng
land in 1866 ordained that thirty.
two grains of wheat, taken from the
middle of the ear, or head, and well
dried, should make a heavyweight,
twenty of which should make an
ounce, while twelve ounces were to
make pound.
The pound therefore consisted then
Of z, $50 grains. Some centuries later
the pennyweight was divided into
twenty four grains, which make the
troy pound, now used, 800 grains.
The pennyweight was the exact
weight of the old silver penny.-St.

An Earthquake at Sen.

Two distinct quakings of the earth
and consequent disturbances of the
sea were felt by the schooner Charles
l.. Mitchell on Monday night. three
miles southeast of Cape Henlopen
The Mitchell arrived at South street
wharf from Cuba with cargo of
sugar. and Captain Frost told the
story of his experience. His vessel
was slowly beating her way up the
coast under easy sail, when she fell
In with the tug Mum and was taken
in tow for Philadelphia. The wind
at the time was light from the north
east and the atmosphere hazy, but
clear overhead Captain Frost had
taken in all but few light sails and
the vessel was heading north, with
both canvas and steam, toward her
port of destination.
Suddenly two terrific reports, like
explosions were heard. then rum
bling sound, as if the vessel was
grinding her bottom out on shoal.
She tremhled and spun about on her
keel as if about to be lifted bodily out
of the water by an unseen power 1t
was first thought she was fast on a
rocky shore, but it was found that
the observations were correct, the
vessel being well off shore and in the
deepest water. Those on the tug
Mum thought that one Of the bulk
oil carriers had exploded, but the
rumbling noise and the period of
time through which it extended after
the first explosion proved conclusive
ly that the report was of a different
character, doubtless from earth
quakings. Philadelphia Record

After Many Years.

A North Berwick doctor was sur
prised the other day. Several years
ago he aided a needy family in town
not only with professional services,
but with groceries, etc. Later they
moved away and were partially for
gotten. But they had not forgotten
the kindness. and the other day a
lady came to the doctor, recalled the
events and asked for the bill, which
she paid, and then added ten dollars
as a present That family evidently
were of the deserving species. Lew

Field insanity case, must have Gre
ated very amusing scene, although
probably it did not strike the lawyers
that way. The hearing was proceed
ing quietly, when the Judge electrl-

that it would consume but five days
and | have already sat here eight
days, and the prospects of finishing
it this week are meager indeed. Gent
lemen of the jury" he added, you
are discharged.
For moment all was confusion.
The Judge, with much dehberation,
was putting on his overcoat, while
the jury seemed too much surprised
to do anything but to sit still and
wonder. Then Mr.. Cochran walked
over to District Attorney Nicoll and
remarked: "Well, I'll be d. = so

The Judgs then left court, but was
intercepted by council, who, with
many promises, iniuced him to re-
turn. He did SO, only to adjourn
