Justice Gaynor. in the Supreme Court.
Brooklyn. this morning handed down a
decision in which he declines to set
aside judgment Of 5000, held by Sadie

way, New York. She sued both for
5000 for false Imprisonment, and OBJ

herd individually. Sanders was found
to be not guilty. He sued Mrs. Bennett;
for costs and obtained Il judgment,
which was returned unsarisfled. Mrs.
Bennett was examined in supplementary
proce edings.
Sanders claims that on this examina-
tion Mrs. Bennett testified that her at
ttrneys, McKoon and Luckey, brought
Up her action against ihipherd and San
ders before the action for false impris-
cnment was begun. When Shpherd
heard of this he wanted the judgment set

This explanation from one street gam
in to another attracted the attention of
reporter and few friends with him
who were conversing on the corner.
Looking in the direction of the boys, he
discovered that Letter Carrier Thomas
Brown had driven up his little wagon
to collect the mail from the box. At
tached to it was small sized sorrel
horse which had, sure enough, an ele-
CANT mustache about Q inches long and
curled in manner which would excite
the envy Of any dude From Mr.. Brown
it was learned that the horse was about
8 years old, and that he purchased him
from a negro. The negro raised him
from a colt, and in early life he COM
menced sporting his mustache. To re-
ieve himself of the bother Of answer
ing questions, the oolored man had kept
the whiskers trimmed, but Mr.. Brown,
since he became possessed of the animal,
had permitted them to grow.--Nash-

brilliant Electra nearly 500 times and

subordinate rank when compared with
the five most brilliant members Of a

we can thus in some degree apprehend."
If we seek to know the dimensions, not
of the individual stars but of the clus-
ter itself, we are met with many diff
culties but ON the assumption that 1t
is approximately spherical in shape we
can calculate its diameter to be over
40, 900, 900, 900 miles, so that light
would take seven years to pass from ono
extreme to the other. IF we think Of the

the size Of the pleiades-in other words,
the limits Of the pleiades could contain
$50 solar systems as many times over
as there are miles between Neptune and
the sun.
1t must not be forgotten that, al
though there are 2, 800 stars in the clus-
ter, yet with such Dimensions for tho
entire group vast distances must sepa-
rate the stars from one another. In fact,
1880 spheres, each with diameter Of
5000, 900, 900 miles, could be contained
in the limits assigned to the group, and,

A curious case Of "cure by sugges-

hospital. A girl of IS was under the
impression that she had swallowed a
frog, which was alive in her stomach
and often jumped almost up into her
throat. The doctors had vainly tried to
cure her Of this illusion, and she was
rapidly dying, when it occurred to one
of the medical men to put tube into
her mouth in which q small frog had
been placed. The lively creature jumped
almost Immediately out of its prison
house onto the table in front of the
girl, and a youthful student put it into
spirits, labelling the bottle, Extracted

saw the creature beaming smile spread
over her pale face, she took food at once
and greedily and is now completely
cured. Westminster Gazette.
