Doble of Pennyroyal, as he sat down to tell
the boys the story of his drive from Balm

York Sun. ''EZ all Nv you know he said,

"Danl, said a bright young man, and for
the first time in the history OF Pennyroyal a
doubt of the truth of Dan Dohle's stories was
expressed. 'Danl. l read that in book a
year ago-in Mark Twains book, l b'lieve."
Pennyroyalists were astounded, and looked
at the story teller in blank establishment.

calmly. When Mark Twain wuz visitin' me

The testimony iu tfc divorce su,.
brought hy Mrs Prank res'ieaeainst 'bef
husband. William g. KIuesbsry Wilde, is
being taken at NewhwE n. y u as
pears that Mrs Leslie really did fall I'm
love with the lazy Eurlshman about
two years ago, when be- was o newspaper
man. Very shortly after their marriage,
however, love few 0ut 40 the window.
Wilde refused to work and demanded tine
finest apartments, richest furniture fast
est horses, most costly stanhopes, etc,
that money could buy His wife paid for
alof these things for him fora while, and
even allowed him to loll in bed until late
dinner time, while she got up early and
hustled TO make money. Finally she got
tired Of that kind of thing and shook
him. Among other reasons assigned by
Mrs. Leslie for desiring a divorce IS this:
"She says that when he left his teeth on
the bureau, forgetting 10 put them in his
mouth, it gave him an aged and repulsive
look which was not at all agreeable
to her" She would have borne
with the teeth, however; but when bills
of $50 to $40 a week for liquor began to
come in to her from the clubs, and she
was called on to pay so 900 or more Tor
liquors drank by her spouse in England,
she became so disguised that she took him
to London in May, 1892 for the ayowed
purpose, as she told many of her friends,
of losing him in the vicinity of his moth
er's door. But Willie was too fond of the
Injuries provided by his wife to submit
to being lost, hence he followed the lady
wherever she went. Finally Mrs. Leslie
bluntly informed Lady Wilde that she
would not longer support her son in idle
ness, and left him at home Anent the
divorce suit, it is rumored in New York
city that Wilde has filed a cross suit
gainst Mrs. Leslie.

DR.. Briggs win Not socade.

The first public utterance of DIR. Briggs
since he was suspended by the general
assembly of the Presbyterian church was
in a letter which appearance in the New
York Evangelist yesterday. He declares
that no one should feel obliged to leave
the Presbyterian church on account of
the decision of the general assembly in
his case. He says that those who sus-
pended him are not the Presbyterian
church-that thcy are only IAN aEgres-
sive minority which has been worked up
more than once INTO a temporary major
ity," He asserts that this minority has
overridden the safeguards of Presbyterian
law and precedent, and that the majority
should rally and undo "thc damage w hich
has been done to the fair fame of Prcsby-
terianism.
DR.. Briggs letter is rather lengthy
ono, and he talks like a leader who pur-
poses to fight and win. He marks out the
lines upon which the battle should be
fought and calls upon his followers TO
rally to his support. In the course of his
letter he says: Revision, new creed,
freedom of scholarship, liberty of con-
science, the constitution of the church
and the precedents of Presbyterian prac-
tice have all been trampled under foot by
a ruthless minority, but these noble
causes will be espoused by thousands, and
brave hands will lift them up as beacons
to light up the future history of the Pres
byterian church. Let each presbytory
whose overtures have been so rudely
brushed aside and scornfully treated re
assert its position with greater determin-
alton before the next general assembly"
The doctor bases his hope of being rein
stated upon the next general assembly. A
general assembly lives only a day. he
says, and then passes away, leaving some
times good name and at other times a
bad one. The inference is, that from the
doctors point Of view the recent general
assembly left a bad name If the next
one, which meets in Saratoga, should
affirm the decision in his case he would
lose confidence in general assemblies,
probably, and conclude that the daywhen
they leave a good name has passed for
ever. However, general assemblies will
continue to come and go, notwithstand-
ing the doctors opinion of them.

A series of experiments has demonstrated
the relations between red flannel monkeys.
beer and rheumatism, says the New York
Sun. Two groups of Gagged monkeys were
abundantly supplied with beer by the EXPERT
mentors. one group being clad in red flannel
the other group left naked. All the naked
monkeys contracted rheumatism. and all the
red fiannel-clad monkeys escaped. Then the
eXperimenters, having thoroughly cured the
rheumatic monkeys, clad them in flannel and
let the other group 90 bare. The supply of
beer was continued, and the bare monkeys
were attacked by the rheumatism while the
tlannel-clad monkeys recovered. The expert
mentors declare the beer made all the mon
keys apt subjects for rheumatism but that
the flannel, by keeping off cold air from the
joints, prevented its development.

Next Monday the two great commercial
journals of New York, the journal of
Commerce, David M. Stones paper, and
the Commercial Bulletin, the Messrs.
Dodsworth's paper, will be merged, the
Bulletin taking precedence. Mr.. Stone
will retire from the editorship and
the Messrs. Dodsworth will be in com
plete control. The Journal, under Mr..
Stone, has won an enviable reputation
for reliability, consistency and a sincere
treatment of all public questions. Mr.
Stones retirement will be regretted by
the commercial community as well as the
newspaper fraternity at large. The new
paper, however, which will contain the
special features of both the journal and
the Bulletin will probably be one of the
most important commercial dailies ever
issued in this country.

partments were furnished ice at the rate
OF lS19 cents per 100 pounds, but this year
the price has been run up to 81 cents, and
the trust is very independent about the
government taking it at that price The
departments consume an aggregate of
2,55O,00 pounds, or ,275 tons, of ice dur
ing the year. The treasury and interior
departments each consume l 100000; war

order that Clerk Laidlaw had no claim
upon Millionaire Sage because Mr.. Sage
took refuge behind Mr. Laidlaw when
Norcross dropped his bomb. The court
dismissed Laidlaw's suit for $4,000 dam
ages, on the ground that he had not
proved that Mr.. Sage was responsible for
the injuries he had sustained or had by
his action removed Laidlaw from a place
of safety to place of danger. Mr. Laid
law will appeal, and when the appeal

Under the disability clause of the pen
sion act Of 1890, the clause perverted by
the Raum- Bussey ruling recently re
vcrsed by Secretary Smith, more than
100000 applications for pensions havc
bo2n granted. in order to determine how
many of these We're granted in violation
of the law it will be necessary for Judge
Lochren and his assistants to revise the
whole number Ordinarily a pension
examiner can dispose of fifteen to twenty
cases a day. ''Supposing," says the New
York Times, that 100 examiners were
set at work on the list of 30OOOOodd
cases, they might take care of l 800 to
1000 day. If the smaller number repre-
scented days work, POO days would be
required in sitting the great mass. II is
possible that more than 100 examiners
may be employed in carrying out the
secretary's order, but this is unlikely. in
view of the huge amount of work which
falls daily to the 1000 clerks in the
bureau" The average yearly sum paid
on a disability pension is Sl27, hence it
will be seen that a total of S3S, 100. 900 is
involved in the list to be ovarhauled
Commissioner Lochren says no time will
be lost in getting to work on the list, and
that, while strict Justice win be done to
every deserving man on it, no fraudulent
pensions win be permitted

The board of aldermen of New York has
adopted an ordinance governing the use
of bicycles and intended to reduce the
danger of accidents from fast or careless
riding The ordinance forbids the pro
pu!sion of wheels at greater speed than
eight miles an hour, requires a lantern'at
night the light of which can be seen at a
distance of 200 feet, and also that the
rider shall ring an alarm bell at all street
crossings, and prohibits more than two
riders abreast in any of the streets of the
city. There is nothing oppressive in such
an ordinance. Indeed, it might well be
copied in other cities where bicycles are
numerous and riders show a disposition

The Washington correspondents of

alleged determination on the part of Sec

correspondent of the New York Press,
in the midst Of doleful story, says that
there is not republican office holder,
whose Office can be possibly made vacant,
against whom charges have not been
filed, or will be filed This being true
if all the republicans in the department
are open to charges-it is 10 wonder that
Secretary Smith wishes to get rid of
them
