JODIE Sayres is not heavy weight
as a congressman, but ne was heavy
enough to puIverize Jerry Simpson
when he lit into him and bowled
him over for his structures on the
conference committee of which Sayres
was q member. When Sayres de-
liberately jnsulted Simpson twice,
and then rubbed it in by saying that
any man who remained in his seat
after two such insults was coward,
the sockless member from the hay.

thought that a cyclone had inter-
viewed hun, and he covered in his
seat like little baalamb in Texas
nOrther.
THAT visit that Hill was to pay
Cleveland ut Buzzards Bay did not
come off. Hill was in the vicinity with
his yacht, but he did not deem it
worth while to pay his respects TO
his successful party rival. Hill is
not going out of his way to salaam at
the shrine of Grover.
THE reasons put forth by Judge
King Of this city, showing how great
provocatiOn Col. King, OF Memphis
was under when he killed PostOn,
present that matter in a very differ.
ent light from that in which it was
shown by the statements of the Men,
phis press, and also in the testimony
at the trial, in so far as that evidence
was published. The statements of
Judge King show great provocation
for deed, generally considered un-
provoked, and offer good grounds for
the interposition OF the supreme court
of the nation or, failing that, for exec
utive clemency. The LIGHT has al
ways held that the position, social
and professional, OF Col. King, did not
in any way absoIve him from the just
penalties of the law; and that the
same course should be pursued In his
case as in that of the humblest clti-
zen. Without receding from this po-
sition one step, the. LIGHT .also says
that the great provocation under
which Col. King labored at the time
he shot Poston, according to the lat
er statement, very materially miti
gates the nature of the crime for
which the condemned is now under
sentence of death.

4 Pretty Table.

A work table, which was an original idea
with its maker and owner, will bear de-
scription and copying. The table founda-
ton was an oblong top piece with broom
handle tripod, upon which it rested firmly
These can be bought in any furniture store,
plain, gildcd OF white, for fifty or seventy
five cents. Over the top was fitted fiat
cover of cream crctonne covered with
daisies. A straight piece fourteen inches
in depth, sewed to the top piece on
every side WIS the foundation for double
row of slirred on pockets of the cretonne
OH three sides. The fourth side had only
one deep pocket for large pieces of work.
A bow of yellow ribbon finished one
corner, and to this was attached, by hang
ing nnrrow ribbons, scissors, emery and
needle book. y small cushion for pins
stood on the top beside little lacquer tray
as temporary catch all for odd buttons,
spools in use, etc. An advantage of the
bag cover was that it was not fastened to
the table, but could be taken off, turned
inside ont, shaken free of dust and restored
in n moment of time and with great ease.

LUTHER JAMES DABcoCy.

The other kind Of golden wSatinp is not
SO sentimental but it is far moro real.
When young man wins the hand of a
MISS Astor or Vanderbilt, n Miss Goelct,
Lorillard, Rockefeller or other maiden of
that class, and the fond father comes down
with check for million or so, that is n
real golden wedding. There is something
in it. And decidedly the most romantic
recent affair of that sort was the capture
of Miss Florence Blythe, of San Francisco,
and her Si,0C0,GC0 by Mr.. Frederick w
fiinckley, of the same city.
Some folks might say there was n bad
flavor about the money. There was long
and interesting trial, and Judge Coffey de-
cided, putting it bluntly, that Florence
was the natural child of Thomas HI.
Blythe and heir to the entire property left
by him." An appeal from that decision is
now pending in the supreme court of Cali
fornla, but every one seems to take it for
granted that the decision of Judge Coffey
will be sustained. She appeared in child
hood us Il claimant for the estate, and has
been reared and educated as an expectant
heiress. She has lived for many years with
her maternal grandmother, and is a lady
OF beauty and culture. The bridegroom is
society young man of TIE best class and
the couple will live in Oakland.
Far more amusing and peculiar was the
experience of Mr.. Luther James Babcock.
OF Ann Arbor, Mich. who has received
bushels of letters from ladies he never saw
and so many proposals of marriage that he
long ago lost count, all of which has in no.
wise lessened his naturally good opinion
of himself. He is about forty five ycars
old, only feet 3 inches in height, slightly
gray and not Mt all imposing in manner or
appearance. But his old bachelor uncle
left him $500, GOO on condition that he marry
good woman in five years, and that fact
was widely ublished. Hence these letters
from maids and widows, each of whom
thought she could make fine wife for n
$500, 900 man.
He just did save himself-just "got in
under the wire," as jockeys say-by marry
inga Waukesha Owls. y belle the other day.
His uncle was long known as the eccentric
old bachelor, Luther James There was
nothing very eccentric about him, how
ever, except that he seemed preternatu-
rally sharp in detecting designs upon his
domestic liberty. If invited to any house
where he was likely to meet an eligible
lady he took care not to be invegled.
From the start he invested in land, and rs
Ann Arbor grew he became almost mil
lionaire.
He already old when his nephew and
namesake went to live with him. The boy
