William, Bessy attempted to murder
his wife, Sunday, at Bowdinham, while
intoxicated, stabbing her repeatedly
with a knife he had prepared for the as
suit. She is in very critical condition
and death is probable, Bessy was
arraigncd before trial justice pleaded
not guilty, WAS ordered TO give bail of
$1,000, in default of which he WAS com
milted to Auburn Jail. An ugly DISPOSE
tion Intensified by the free use OF old
cider, it appears, caused the tragedy.

A Question Of Right, Not Phrases.

\ Question Of Right, Nos Phrases.
There are woman suffragists and
woman aut:-sufragists. The former
insist that if they are taxed they
should be permitted effectually to ex-
press their opinions by the BALLOT, ir-
respective of sex. The latter protest
against this on the ground chiefly
that woman unsexes herself by taxing
so mannish a rart in public affairs,
and then betray the fallacy of their
position by appeals TO the press and
petitions to conventions, after the
most approved masculine methods.
Thus both sides are committed TO
politics-one for ard the other against
the privilege Of voting.
There are men who are statesmen
and shrewd politicians who mold that

IS paid TO sex. Now the word artist
in English, as ia French is both

She accomplished thundercr at the

that "artiste' is distinctly and dis

there is no evidence in the writings
of the ancient world that the sugar
canc was known to the west of Europe
before the oriental couqucsts of Alex
ander the Great Ths Hebrew word
translated calanus, or sweet cane, is
supposed by some to have been used to
designate the sugar-cane. Stra5p says
that Nearchus found it in + 81 Indies
H. C. 325, and brought soma back to
Europe to be used as medicine.
Sugar is mentioned by Thco-
phraptus as a product of the far
east. rarrC, B. c. Gs, describes the
method of its manufacture, and little
later Dioscorides mentioned IL as "a
Kind Of honey pressed from reeds" and
very beneficial in cases of indigestion
and of diseases OF The eye. Galen
prescribed it as medicine Pliny and
Arrian both mention it as an article Of

London. (Ohio) Times: 1t is the
Teriest folly 10 talk about General
Harrison, or any othsr man for that
matter, securing Ohio's vote or any
part of it against Mckinley in the
next national convention. Governor
Mckinley has the call not only III
Ohio but in majority of the other
States in the Union. Whatever NAV
be said of others, McKinlcy's name is
first and last upon the lips of the peo-
pie and is the enly really positive
quantity talked of in connection with
