A SCANDAL REVIVED.

Thomas Bells win Brings Up Memories Of
the Sharon Case-Sensational Develop
ments Expected Regarding the Family
of the Dead California Millionaire.
SAN Francisco, Oct 24-Over the will
Of Millionaire Thomas Bell, which has just
been filed, contest is certain that may
lead to sensational developments. Bells
estate amounts to $4,000, 900, and in will
executed last February he left all to his
wife and six children, But the property can
not be distributed for IA years-until the
youngest child comes of age. Meanwhile
the widow will get such an allowance as the
executors think proper.
The widow Is said not to fancy this
arrangement, as she wishes to handle the
estate, and Bells nephew, who managed his
large ranch in Santa Barbara, expected to
be remembered. He will make q contest on
the ground that the will was not executed by
Mr. Bell, and that he is the only legal heir,
as the children named in the will are not
Bells children. This latter ground will
open up scandal of which the public had
q glimpse during the great Sharon trial.
Sharon and Bell were chums until Bell
went to live with a woman whose husband
was in the insane asylum. Bell was eager
to have family, though he was over 80, SO
he promised this woman $50, 900 for every
child which was born to her.
When two were born the insane husband
died Bell married her. He had six chill
dren by this woman. 1t was remark made
by Sharon in regard to these children that
led to . bitter quarrel between Bell and
Sharon. Bell found his revenge in furnish
ing Sarah Althea with the money for carry
ing on her divorce suit. For the last five
years Bell and his wife spent little time
together, she living on a ranch in Sonoma.

Maay Women Perfectly Formed Except
rs to Their Feet.
Louis Xavier, Partisan sculptor now
making q tour Of America, sat in the
corridor of the Southern the other day
and discussed the human form divine,
says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat:
ut is not true, as the world generally
suppose, that ideal statues are compo-
sites. Yes. have read that sculptors
use a number Of models for one statue,
copying tho head of one, the bust OF
another, the limbs of third, and SO On
Some sculptors may resort to such
ridiculous patchwork, but imagine the
effect would be far from pleasing.
Perfectly formed women are by no
means so rare Is generally supposed.
Not one woman in a dozen has been
seriously deformed by tight lacing, and
the high-heeled shoes, that formerly
played such havoc with shapely limbs,
have about gone ont of fashion. But q
perfectly formed female foot is now .
rara avis. The world appears to have
adopted the Chinese idea that the
smaller the foot the prettier II Is, and
the result is that perfectly modelled feet
are cramped and abused until not line
of beauty is left Now any sculptor,
any artist, will tell you that foot too
small to harmonic with the figure is an
actual deformity. l would rather see
the foot too large, If it be shapely, than
too small. Think of Juno who stands
five feet seven inches and tips the scales
at one hundred and fifty pounds teeter>
ing to and fro On No. or No. 2 feet!
She should wear No. at the very
least. and No. would not be out of
proportion.
Like the foot, the hand should har-
monte with the body. A little string
Of hand on lusty Minerva, who tow
ers up nearly six feet tall. is shocking
to true artistic taste. Did you ever see
man whose nose was too small for his
face? Well, it is just as necessary that
the hand and foot should be in harmony
with the figure as that the nose should
fit the face. Some day people will
learn this, and then as many people
will wear padded shoes as now limp
along in footgear size too small.
Madam will then be as much ashamed
of hand too small as she now is of one

WHERE MAcKEREL GO.

The End OF . Great season REEVES an Old
Fish Mystery.
Where mackerel go for the winter il

mackerel disappear. They are album
dant in the gulf of st. Lawrence and
off Newfoundland until that time,
plump and juicy and very toothsome, the
result of having fed well on their nil
grafton northward. The next seen of
them is in March, off Cape Hatteras.
Ali their plumpness is then gone.
There is scaly growth over their eyes,
which nearly blinds them. Nobody
whose palate has been taught what
good mackerel are cares to eat such
fish. Many old fishermen think the
flesh tastes of mud in the spring.
One theory in regard to this is that
the mackerel go into the mud in winter
and remain there. and this has the eff
feet of producing cataract growth, or
scale. for the protection of the eye, and
of imparting an earthly taste to the
flesh. Mackerel have been speared in
the bay of Fundy by men who cut
through the ice to look for fish. Occa-
sionally maclerel has been found in
that they fail to esta blish any rule in
regard to the habits of the fish.
The only certainty is that mackerel
disappear from all waters visited by
fishing vessels from late in the fall un-
til early In the spring. The fish natu-
rally loves the shore and is to be found
close to land in the regular season.
Since fishing vessels cover this ground
all the year round, it is safe to suppose
that if mackerel were there they would
be caught at times out of season. If
the fish go into deep water for the win
ter and move seaward, they put aside
entirely the habits that have been OBJ
served in regard to them. and in the
winter time acquire traits to which
they seem to be innately averse in the
warm-weather months
Mackerel do not like cold water. and
it is not believed that they remain in
the northern bays through the winter.
There is certainly no explanation if it
is assumed that they make their winter
home of Newfoundland, for their APP
pearance in q latitude much further
south in the spring. Canadian fisher
men have several times tried to make
trouble over mackerel catches. claiming
that mackerei remain in northern wa
tiers as their natural habitat, and that
the mackerel coming up from Hatteras
are not at all the same fish found in
the bay of Fundy. This theory has not
been accepted, however. by American
fishermen, and the claims of the Cana
dians do not seem plausible enough to
have justified any action by the author
