THE REAL REASON
Why Lady BlandfOrd Applied
 for Increased Alimony.
PRESENT DUCHESS IS JEALOUS.
Society and the Queen on the Side of the
 Former Duchess of Marlborough.

Only Through Great Pressure Was ths
 Dukes Present Wife Permitted to be
 Presented to the queen on Her Marriage
 Not Welcome at the Home of the
 Prince of Wales, Who Has Good Mem.
 ory for Any slight Tut Upon Him.
 LONDON, Feb. 25.-The real reason for the dispute about the Marquis of Bland ford's allowance from the Duke of Marl- borough, his father, in which the latter was victorious. lies in the jealousy which has always existed between Lady Bland ford, the Duke's former wife, and the Duchess of Marlborough nee Mrs. Ham, ersley.
 Lady Blandford is persona grata with the Queen, and society was also on her side when she divorced her husband, although unwillingly, after writing most pathetic letters offering to coadone every thing for her children's sake.
 Since then she has openly regretted that she did not suffer in silence, for the children's position naturally is affected by the divorce. But on the other hand the Duchess of Marlborough was never cordially received, and only through great pressure the Queen allowed her to be presented on her marriage.
 Nor are they welcomed at Marlborough House, for the Prince of Wales has & fierce memory for any slight to himself or any one he favors. He has never for given the Duke for loving Lady Ayles- ford, friend of his, who is now alone and almost starving in Paris. He stated openly that it is entirely the Duchess fault that the Duke no longer pays Lord Blandford's allowance nor his college expenses, for Lady Blandford always sat like Mordecai at the gates, spelling all her pleasure in her high position and her great estates.
 Lady Blandford has one daughter al- ready out and another comes out this season. She is enabled to keep up her position through the liberality of the Duke of Abercorn and other relatives.

Children Are InsufFicIently Instructed in
 Modern Schools.
 Let us see what ''object lessons" chiefly deal with. Last year, in nor. maj school in the Empire state. teacher of primary methods, proudly claimed by her principal to be the best in the state, gave thimbles, scissors, chairs etc, as suitable subjects for object-les- sons, and carefully led her pupils through the steps required to develop in children's minds ideas of the parts and the uses of these objects. Is there one child in six hundred, at six years of age, ignorant of these parts and uses? Then the so-called development process is farce and a waste of time and en. ergy. Look over manuals of object. lessons and courses of study for primary children; you will usually find but few subjects leading the child from the beaten path of his daily life into new, inviting and fruitful fields; and of these, note the directions as to what is to be taught. Such directions often resem- ble a lesson on butterfly that heard given by kiDdergartner. With sim gle butterfly held in her hand she led the children to speak of its flying in the sunshine, slipping food from flowers, living through the summer, and of the beauty of its color. Not a word was said of the three parts of the body, the two pairs of wings, the six legs, the an- tenpe, and the tube through which it sips food-all of which and more the children could easily have been led to see. Doubtless the teacher thought the children had had beautiful lesson, but had they received anything at all? Although city children, they spent the seen and probably chased several but terflies, and possibly some of them knew more than their teacher about the habits of butterflies Miss. M A

FAITHFUL IN DEATH.
4 Recently Unearthed Story of the Revo
 lutIonary War.

Recently Unearthed Story of the Revo- lutlonary War.
 Away up in the mountainous regions of Pennsylvania relic of revolution ary times has recently been found, which bears out the old saying that truth is stranger than fiction" The story seems almost incredible, b 1t MT. Potts, superintendent of one of the ex- tensive granite quarries there, vouches for its authenticity, and he is repre- sented as a man of undoubted veracity. While opening new quarry at falls of French creek, in a very wild section of country, 8 cave was discovered, and in it the exploring party came across a skeleton. Thinking that a murder had been committed in some place near by, the men began to look around for evil dences of the crime, but instead of the weapons of death they expected to find, they discovered close by the ghastly skeleton green glass, bottle, that had evidently fallen from the bony fingers after they had grown cold and lfeless. MT. Potts carried the bottle home with him that evening, and when he opened it he found a paper, faded and discolored with time. The writing upon the vel low paper was still quite legible, and was addressed to Miss Virginia Ran dolph, of Richmond, Va The name signed at the close of the letter was Arthur l.. Darlington, of the same place. From what was written Mir. Potts learned that the young man had been with Washington at Valley Forge in IT'S, and that he had been one of 8 party sent out upon foraging expedi- tion to the neighborhood of falls of French creek. In some way the British had cut him off from the army, and while his men took refuge with friends he had tried to conceal himself in the cave, where he had often hidden be- fore. The entrance to the cave had once been marked by huge rock right over the opening-a rock so ponderous that it could never have been removed by hand. The fleeing patriot took shelter inside, and had scarcely done so when the enemy came rushing by and fired several shots after his retreating men. The concussion must have destroyed the balance of the stone above the entrance, for it fell and held the writer a prisoner for life. A single ray of sunlight streamed through the opening at the top of the stone, and this was all that frightened the poor fellows prison. The writer goes on to say that many weary hours passed away before he fully realized that his prison must be his grave. With the fever burning in his veins, and with reason almost de- throned, he wrote the letter that he hoped would in some way reach its destination, and give to the world the knaSsledge of his sad fate. In this let ter he spoke most pathetically of tho asrrow in store for his brother and ends up in this way: God Is good and mereiful to let you seem to ba pear n.

 BERrIR, Feb. 25.-The Kaiser has taken personal notice of the horrible develop. ments at Nadgeburg, and has ordered the Minister of Justice to use the utmost diligence in ferreting out the crimes charged to Fitz Erbe and the woman Dorothy Buntrock.
 It is now said that the pair were led into their practice of enticing and mur- dering servant girls by the first revela- tions of the crimes of Schneider and his wife near Vienna.
 Erbe and Buntrock followed the same course as the Schneiders, the woman en- ticing the girls to a lonely spot in the woods by the promise of taking them to Q good situation and Erbe then strangled the victims, whose clothing and money were seized by the wretches. It does not appear that Erbe abused the bodies as Schneider did.
 The woman having confessed, the con viction and execution of the pair is cer- tain. Two victims are known, Emma Kasteu and Dora Klages. It is believed that there were other victims.

 for Years.
 PoUGHKEEPsIE, N. Y, Feb 25.-Thomas and William Bell, who have been Dutch ess County outlaws for years, have been arrested at New Milford, Connecticut, by Officer Charles H. Case, of Poughkeepsie. Many crimes are laid at the door of the Bells. The arrests were made on the specific charge of burglary, committed at the home of Alfred F. Russell, at Freedom Plains, about three months ago. The Bells offered MT. RusselI's goods for sale to different people.
 The Bells are giants and are desperate men. The police are confident that the explanation of many crimes that have mystified Duchess County for years will follow the arrest of the Bells.
 The officer had acquisition papers and the prisoners have been brought to Poughkeepsie.
