A Wonderful spinster Of Old.

Spinster Annie Maria Won Schur-
mann was the name of a woman who
lived at Utrecht during the sixteenth
century. She was SO learned a woman
that all men of science of that day con-
sidered her marvel. She spoke Ger,
man, French, English, Italian, Latin
Greek and Hebrew with equal facility
and even understood the Syrian, Chal-
daic, Arabic and Ethiopian tongues.
Astronomy, geography, philosophy
and theology were her special
hobbies and she wrote many in
teresting pamphlets on these sub
jects. Aside from this she was a
painter, sculptor and engraver of high,
degree and played and devised several
musical instruments. She was held in
high esteem by and corresponded with
many of the prominent savants of the
age, even with Richelieu, Queen Anne
of France, Elizabeth of Poland and
Christine of Sweden She died unmar-
ried at the age of seventy-two.

There are fellows in every community
who glory in their shame. Conscience
less scoundrels who are continually re-
counting escapades with ladies. Most
of these stories are outrageous exagger-
ations or lies of whole cloth. One of
these smart alecks met his match in
Clarksburg few days ago. He had re-
lated with great gusto and extreme par
ticularity an alleged experience with
one of the most respected young ladies'
OF the place. In his large crowd OF
listeners was friend of the girl, who re.
ported the matter to her brothers. They
in turn told the young lady, and she pro-
cured horsewhip. Accompanied by her
brothers, she found the foul. l.mouthed
blackguard in barber's chair, and gave
him the thrashing he SO richly deserved.
Such fellows should be severely dealt
with, and young ladies should be very
careful who they recognize or associate
with. A good character may be ruined
before they are aware of it by. the lying
breath of scandal.

that he had killed one hundred ele-

was about a mail carrier in Mashona-

one horse and leading another (which
carried the mails) when the lion made
his appearance and his spring. The
latter demoralized the mail complete

other broke away without his rider,

lion stalked away into the bush, doubt
less with an increased contempt for
the refnements of civilization. The

Kepe Warm by Love Alone, and Not Any
Too Warm Ether;
The steps leading to the platform Of
. railway car are not supposed to be a
very pleasant place for H society young
lady and gentleman to ride for any
considerable distance, especially when
the train is running at the rate of forty
miles an hour on cold, dark night.
But this is what recently happened
to such a couple all the way from Balls
ton to Saratoga, says the Albany Even
ing journal, and the probable outcome
Of the incident will be an after-Easter
marriage in high life.
The couple in question had gone to
Ballston to take tea with a mutual
friend, and to return by the nine p. m.
train. Being little late in reaching
the depot, and finding the train under
motion, by desperate effort the young
woman gained the steps to the rear
platform of the last car, and the young
man followed her.
The train was now moving at rapid
speed, and the young couple, carefully
clinging to the railing, started to
ascend the platform and seek safety
and more comfort on the inside of the
car. But they soon discovered that
they were on the steps of vestibule
sleeping car, and that the door opening
into the vestibule was locked.
A seven miles ride in this uncom-
fort@ble position was the necessity
whktp stared them in the face. They
had to stand up all the way and to hold
closely to each other and to the railing,
or the jolting of the train might have
thrown them off
