A Boston newspaper reporter gave a
practical test of Mr.. Edward Atkinson's
confident declaration that man can
live well and procure complete nourish-
ment in the shape of solid food, at
cost Of one dollar week or less. This
is his summary of the cost of each meal,
and the total for the week:
Saturday. breakfast $50, dinner $40,
1902 cents; Sunday, breakfast 4.s5, dinner
S,7S 1858 cents; Monday, breakfast 7.19,
dinner $50, 1883 cents; Tuesday, break
day, breakfast 6.15, dinner 1l.6l, 17.76
cents; Thursday, breakfast 2.l4, dinner
564, 7.75 cents; Friday, breakfast 2.63,
dinner 5.38, sol cents; total cost, 1880.
; Average per day, 1855 cents; average per
meal, CPS cents.
Counting the cost of the oil used for
fuel and of some minor items not included
in the above calculation, he computes the
total cost Tor the seven days at SO 90-l00
cents. Beans, onions, beets and potatoes
figured largely in his bills of fare, but he
also had during his week such meats as
lamb. beef ana pork, and other viands
such as macaroni, apple sauce, cranberry
sauce grapes, bread and butter, while hI
had coffee, with sugar in it, to drink. HI
provided himself with accurate scales so a
to ascertain the exact amount of food b.
consumed, and gives the results to thu
minutest details with true reportorial con
Bcientiousness and care.
This is very interesting, and it ma,
prove valuable. There are many peopl
who live on dollar week or less be
cause they have to, and it may be wort
something to them to learn how to &c
the best results from their limited re
sources. But as measure Of econom
for people who have larger incom
than one dollar a week, the Atkinso
method will not prove popular. The
will simply spend more each week fc
food, as their income increases.

Danbury Hatters Gain a Point.

DANBURY, Conn, Dec. l2.-The rumor
that Bellair, Lurch * Co, the big hat
manufacturers, would resume work this
week and would take back their old hands
has some foundation in fact, aud it is
learned that their factory would now be
running but for the illness of the two
senior partners, who are both confined to
bed with grip.
They have persisteutly denied the rumor
for policy's sake, but it is now positively
known that they intend to begin work
next Monday and resume their old rela-
lions with the four unions. The superin-
tendent of the factory says that it is neces-
sary for the firm TO get the old employees
back, as they are choice workmen and
used to their kind of work.
The giving in of this shop is a great vic
tory for the men locked out. They believe
that it will be followed hy other manufac-
turers in a short time. Other manufac-
turers, however, are sitter than ever
They say they will import nonunion help
from Fall River, New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania before they will submit to dictation
from trade unions any longer.

BlGAMY AND PERJURY.
The Husband Convicted of One, and the
Wife Arrested For the Latter.

LONG ISLAND CITY, n. V, Dec. H.
Franz Richards, alias Franz Van Haken,
was found guilty of bigamy in the Queens
county court. He married Miss Lena Say
Ter in Philadelphia several years ago, but
deserted her and went to College Point to
live. There he became engaged to Miss
Julia Bertschinger and recently married
her. The couple were celebrating their
wedding the other night when the deserted
wife, who had heard of the marriage, rang
the doorbell and confronted her husband
He attempted to leave College Point, but
was arrested.
During the trial the first wife, who
seemed to have relented testified that she
was never married to Richards. Justice
Smith of Philadelphia, however, swore
that she was the Miss Sayler whom he had
married to Richards in that city. By Or
der of the district attorney she was arrest
ed upon n charge of perjury. While she
was being removed to cell in the court
house the jury came in with a verdict of
guilty against Richards. He will be SEN
fenced today. After he was arrested he
tried to kill himself by cutting the arteries
in his wrist with piece of tin he had torn
off a condensed milk can.

MRS. HALLIDAY TRIES AGAIN.
She Cat Her Throat with Broken Glass,
but VIII Live.

MONTICELLO, n. Y, Dec. l2.-Mrs. Lizzie
Halliday made another attempt to take
her life. Deputy Sheriff John Beecher
found her sitting on the iron bed in one
corner of her cell covered with blood,
which was flowing from deep cash on the
left side Of her throat and a smaller one on
the right side. She had inflicted the
wounds with piece of sharp edged glass
which she had broken from a pane in the
cell window. With the sharp corners of
the glass and her finger nails she had
scraped her neck beneath her chin and then
proceeded to cash it.
DIR. Cauthers found that she had not only
cut her throat, but had cut, hacked and
otherwise mutilated herself in a terrible
manner. The joints of her arms at the ell
bows were gashed nearly to the bone, and
number of other cuts were upon them.
When asked by the doctor why she had
injured herself, she said
81 thought would cut myself to see if
would bleed"
The doctor, when asked if her case was
serious, replied that she was very weak
from the loss of blood, but with proper
care would probably be all right in few
weeks. 1t is thought that the cause for
her attempts to commit suicide was that
she thought she was to be tried at the
term of court now in session, not knowing
that her trial had been carried over to the
May term. She was put in handouts to
prevent any further attempts on her life.

TO SUPPRESS ANARCHY.
The French Government Proposes PrOmp
and Vigorous Measures.

and Vigorous Measures.
PARIS, Dec. 12.-Prompt steps were taken
in the chamber of deputies to suppress an
archism. Four restrictive measures were
reported.
The governments first bill-to make it
penal offense 10 publish incitementsto COM
init outrages by the use of explosives-pro-
vides punishment for indirect in addition
to direct indictments.
The second bill-to regulate the manu-
facture and possession of explosives-pro-
vides not only for the control of explosives
and their use, but regulates the use and
possession of chemicals used in the manu-
facture of explosives, and both chemicals
and explosives can be seized if the police
have any suspicion that they are to be put
to an improper use.
The third misunderstanding the power
of the police for the repression of anarchis-
tic agitation and for preventing anarchistic
outrages-increases the credit of the de-
partment of the interior by $4,000 francs,
and augments the police in the provinces,
establishes additional police bureaus, in
creases the wages of badly paid municipal
policemen and largely increases the num-
Der of police.
The fourth bill-providing for police SUI
pervision of anarchistic societies will put
such societies in the same category as asso-
Citations of lawbreakers.
A meeting of socialists was held at the
Maison du Peuple, and the proposed re-
pressive measures of the government were
violently denounced.

Honolulu probably about Nov. -, has just

An Associated Press correspondent i'm
mediately went aboard of her and had in
terviews with the officers and passengers
regarding the situation of affairs in Ha,
wall. They stated that when the steamer
left the island the provisional government
was still i'll power and was maintining a
very determined attitude. Much excite
ment prevailed among business men and
the people generally, and the action of the
United States government was awaited
with the greatest anxiety.
The members of the provisional govern
ment, however, were resolute in their
declarations against the restoration of the
monarchy, and they openly expressed their
intention of resisting to the utmost any at
tempt that President Cleveland might
make to reinstate the queen.
