CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
hrs. Dickins Of Louisville Innocently
Lavishes Attention on q burglar.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Louisville, May 14.-One of the most
remarkable experiences a woman ever
had with a borglar fell to the lot of Mrs.
John w. Dicl1ins of 2510 West Walnut
street last Tuesday morning. The rob-
berry was reported to the police, but
neither they nor the shrcWdcSt news
PAPER reporters We're told of the peculiar
attendant circumstances which We're
finally divulged by a member of the
family.
Mr.. Dickins had complained of being i'll
lust before going to bed, and had retired
to his room alone AT 2 O'Clock the next
morning Mrs. Dicliins woke up and saw a
man standing near the bureau. A dim
light from a street lamp strcamed in
through the window, and she thought her
husband was up and dressed. Are you
sick, john" she asked anXiously slipping
out of bed. mo. not very" was the com
posed reply, and the man turned to walk
out of the room. Mrs Dickens thought
this strange procedure, and feared her
husband was out Of his head. Catch
ing the man by the arm, she followed
him out through the hall and then down
stairs assisting him carefully. He said
nothing. and she supposed MIN too sick TO
talk, as she asked him again and again
what was the matter. He walked on
down stairs without vouChsafng a word
till the front door was reached, which he
opened. Are you sick, John she asked
again 'FNO, -- you, ! amt sick
he growled, and struck her blow which
brought her to her knees.
Terrified at this ineXplicable conduct in
the llindcst and best Of husbands, Mrs.
Dickins got Up and tried to follow. The
man sprang out and leaped a side fence
lust as Mrs. DiclSins' two sons, who had
been to a party. came in at the front gate.
While Mrs Dickins was trying to com
pose herself, MIR Dickins, walked by the
noise, looked down the stairway and
asked what was the matter. Then Mrs
Dickins realized that She had been es-
cgrtiue a burglar. and wOmanlikC she
screamed aud tainted. She had come
down two fights Of dark stairs and
through two long halls with the robber,
on whom she was laVishing anxious in
0uiries The shock Of the discovery was
a great blow TO her nervous system and
she has not yet recovered.
The burglar had evidently been some
time in the house. Under the kitchen
table were found pile Of hats and suits
OF clothes. which he had laid aside with
the intention OF removing later. IL was
probably his second trip, for it was found
that Mr. Dickus trousers. containing sos

The Fight Over the st. Augustine
Postofhos Growing Red-hot.

st. Augustine, Fla, May 17.-After a
season of much gayety, St. Augustine has
gone into the enjoyment of its summer
snooze, that is, enjoyment would be the
result of the sleep were it not for a fright
full nightmare that is making the town
hideous with the yells of the disturbed
politicians. It's the rush for office that
caused the outbreak
The history in brief Of the trouble is
this; A. j. Corbett wants the postoffice,
and to secure it he obtained the indOrse-
ment of the several members of the
county democratic executive committee,
and when it came to getting the indorse-
ment of the committee signed by its
chairman, Col. b. Genovar, Corbett ran
amuck of man who had pledged himself
and his influence 10 Mr.. Usina, and who
would not indOrso the COrbetC petition 1t
was then that the Corbettites started to
raise the Genovar scalp, WhereupOn the
"hlud' of his adherents begun boiling.
The Genovarites denounced the COrbett-
ties and pro and con, the little
war waXed hot, and hotter when it
was found that Genovar was to be
dropped from the board of county COM
mlsslOners. This was really accomplished
| at the executive meeting, as the gov
ernOr suggested another meeting in order
to give the committee chance to repent
! by nominating Genovar, which it did
Ihls stirred the COrbettites and they

B. Genovar had succeeded in having the
state Senate waive its rules and pass a
bill TO amend St. Augustine's charter so
as TO leave out the new ward which it
was represented TO the legislature is
black" This naturally aroused the
citizens of that district and they are
! climbing up in the collar of the man who
calls them black, for in that ward are

Savannah, May 16.-Editor Morning
News L note in your issue of
May IA, under the caption of
''The Drainage Improving" etc, the
statement of Inspector Desvergers "that
the county commissioners have had all
the important drains cleaned out to dis
tanCeof three miles from the city" This
is certainly an error. The southwest por-
ton of the city back of the colored peO-
pies cemetery has not received attention
for the past three years since the Minis
swamp canal was built. I would also call
the attention of the commissioners to the
pools of stagnant water lying on the
Baker and Minis tracts. This section of
the suburbs should receive prompt atten-
ton before the summer sets in.

THE GREENLAND WHALE.
It's Curious Mouth and Strange Man

It's Curious Mouth ana Strange Man
ner of Feeding Itself and It's Cubs.
From the New York Sun.
"The Greenland whale never has teeth
but once, and that is when it is born, ="
said New Yorker who was formerly
whaler. "Those teeth are milk teeth. and
when the young whale is weaned they do
not fall out like baby's milk teeth. but
disappear by ASSERTION in the Jaw. and in
stead Of being replaced by permanent
teeth plates Of baleen, or whalebone, are
substituted for them.
SIN the seas where the Greenland
whale resorts the great octopods that
form the food Of the cOchclot whale can
not exist, and the only Inhabitants Of
those waters On which the whale can
feed are Of very small size. the
largest of them not exceeding an inch in
length. The cochelot whale would starvc
to death even in the midst of the myriads
of the animalculB that swim in the Arctic
seas, Tor its narrow lower jaw and great
+oeth, set wide apart in it, would be use
less in the capture Of such small prey.
Great numbers Of these marine midgets
must necessarily be taken to nourish so
enormous a creature as the Greenland
whale, and consequently the structure of
the head must be modified as far as con
Germs the portions Of 10 which are used Ina
