KISSING IN COURT.
Polish Women Show Their Gratitude to
Lawyer, Judge and Jury.

Polish Women Show Their Gratitude to
Lawyer, Judge and Jury.
Men running from women wishing to
kiss them agitated the county court at
Long Island City the other day. Judge
Garretson was on the bench. A jury
had just announced verdict Of mot
guilty" in the case of Anna Wonzowlas-
ka, pretty Polish girl 10 years old,
charged with criminal offense.
Theverdict caused commotion among
a number of Polish women in the rear of
the courtroom. They rushed into the
open space reserved for lawyers and fell
upon Counselor Merrill, who defended
the girl, and assailed him with fervent
kisses. Each kiss was loud, and the
counselor became red in the face.
The jurymen smiled, but their turn
was coming. Before they realized what
was going to happen, the women made
an assault upon the jury box and grab
bed the members of the jury around
their necks and imprinted kisses on their
cheeks and hands. The men struggled,
but the chairs prevented their escape un-
til all but the foreman had received an
affectionate embrace. Foreman Arm
strong ran for the door. 1t was a short,
sharp race, but the foreman won.
Judge Garretson frowned from the
bench. He was too surprised to act un-
til it was nearly all over. He was re-
covering his composure when the women
started for him. The judge was saved
by the interference of the court officer,
who succeeded in getting the women to
leave the courtroom. The earnestness
of the women had such an effect on the
spectators present that they made up q
purse of $50 for the girl. She left the
court light of heart.-New York Times.

CIRCULATING ART. :
Why Should Picturen Not BE Passed
Around Just Like Books Are?


Around Just Like Books Are?
The other day heard an excellent no
tion propounded with regard to works of
art. 1t was the establishment of cir
culating picture gallery, which should
occupy the same relation with regard to
paintings as Nude does in respect of
books OF course the subscription
would be higher, as the number Of sub
scribers would be limited. But the
pictures would be changed every month,
DO that a man need never be bored by
the eternal sameness of the walls.
A story is told of man who dined op-
posite to fine work by Sir Joshua Rey-
nolds for so many years that it at last
had to be moved, for it irritated him to
such an extent that he threatened to hurl
decanter Of port wine at it. The new
society would effectually obviate any
such annoyance. All the works would
be for sale, so any subscriber taking 0
fancy to particular picture might OBJ
tain the price from the secretary and on
payment thereof could become its pos
SCISSOR.
The advantage of this system, especial
ly in the present depressed state Of the
fine art market, is obvious, and it would
also be benefit to the buyers, because
they would discover after the trial of
month whether they really liked pic
ture or not.
The terms of the subscription would
Of course be in proportion to the style Of
pictures supplied. Of course if you ex-
pected to have works by Sir Joshua
Reynolds, George Romney and Sir John
Everett Millais the payment would be
very much more costly than if you only
required series of prints. But the sub
scriptions should be SO regulated that it
would bring the circulating picture gal
lery within the reach Of all.-London
Graphic.

A clock of ingenious mechanism has

Schuylerville, N. Y, after two years
work. The case represents an arsenal.
1t is feet inches high, has several bal
comics and piazzas and tower in which
is bell. On either side of the entrance
door is a miniature brass cannon mount

plays a trumpeter on horseback rides

The London Daily Chronicle has o
word to say about how the Florida au-
thorities expressed their iron determine
tion to stop the prize fight between Cor
bett and Mitchell and then did not do it.
The Chronicle remarks gently, Every
decent person throughout the world
must feel it to be deep disgrace in
modern society and representative insti-
tutions that American authorities have
proved so pitifully and contemptibly un-
able to prevent the fight" The question
is, Did the American authorities" really
want to prevent the fight?

An Indian Treasury Looted.

A grave scandal has come to light at
Indore. Treasure which has long been
supposed to be guarded in the Khasgi
treasury, amounting to 900, 900 rupees,
is missing. Her late highness Ma Saheb
told the maharajah that she had pre-
senred a few of the gold ornaments
from the Jawahir Khana to some of her
servants, and that the younger Ma Sa-
hebs-the stepmothers of his h~ighness-
knew all about the jewelry and silver
articles and cash in the treasury, and
that he would get all information re-
speeding them from the younger prin-
cesses. But no n of them has been
able to furnish any explanation respect
ing the missing sum of rupees, or the
jewels, ornaments and silver articles
which were with them. On this ac-
count the allowances of the maharajah q
stepmothers have been partially with
held while the mystery is under inquiry.

ANTARCTIC EXPLORATION.
what DIR. John Murray Of the Challenges
Expeditions Thiniks About 1T.

What DIR. John Murray Of the Challenger
Expeditions Think About It.
An attempt Ia being made under the
auspices of the Royal Geographical 30
ciety to renew interest in antarctic ex-
ploration. An important paper on the
subject was presented to the society
this week by DIR. John Murray OF the
Challenger expedition. He argued that
the continent at the south pole COM
prised 1000, 600 square miles and that
great practical benefits in the depart
ments of biology, geology and physics
would be gained by its exploration. He
did not advocate a dash for the pole,
but demanded rather d steady, syste-
matte exploration of the whole southern
region with all the appliances of mod
ern investigators. The exploration
should be undertaken by the royal navy.
Two ships, not exceeding 1000 tons
burden each, should be fitted ont for
three summer and two winters.
Early in the first season d wintering
party Of 10 men should be landed some-
where south of Cape Horn, probably
about Bismarck strait, at Graham
Land. The expedition should proceed
to Victoria Land, where a second party
should winter, probably at Mac Murdo
bay, near Mount Erebus. The ships
should not be frozen in, but should re.
turn north, conducting observations of
various kinds toward the outer margins
Of the ice. The position Of the ice and
the temperature OF the ocean should be
observed.
Early in the spring the wintering
parties should be communicated with
and REINFORCED for another winter.
During the second winter deep sea OBJ
servations should be continued to the
north. In the third season the winter
ing parties should be picked up and the
expedition return to England. London

Two Drpmmers Have an Experiences I'm
the Mountains or Kentucky.
Two drummers, ALI Hill of Chicago
and Tom johnson OF Baltimore. decided
30 take q few days off and go fishing on
the Cumberland river near Harlan.
Things went smoothly while there. The
natives were hospitable and kind. But
they were not so fortunate on their re-
turn trip, as they missed the road and
became lost in the mountains. While
wandering hopelessly about they ran
into a body Of m~ountaineers. They
were promptly arrested, and after a con-
ference OF the part of the mountain
people they were blindfolded.
After what seemed to them an all
days tramp the blinds were suddenly
removed, and they found themselves In
a ave lighted by lamps. About 90
rough men and women surrounded
them. They were asked many ques-
tons about their business, and after
they succeeded in showing they were
not revenue officers the attitude of their
captors changed A meal of their best
was set before them. After this the
fiddle and banjo were brought out, and
the light fantastic" was INDUCED i'm
for several hours. The drummers were
then blindfolded again and led from the
cave. After what seemed TO them an
endless march the blinds were again re-
moved, and they were told that they
were on the main road. They were
also M that fha fate of tho ipforynar
was death-to go and never return.
In the cave were several small stills
with a capacity of several barrels a
week. The W. had several depart
ments for sleeping. As to where the
cave is located Hill and johnson have
not the remotest idea.-Louisville Cou-
