ANOTHER KENTUCKY COLONEL.
Otis S. Gage Sued for 500, 600 by an
Abused Husband.

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-The World will
tomorrow say: Otis s. Gage, formerly of
Louisville, KY, but now living i'm this city,
is defendant in a suit to recover sl00, 900
damages for alternating the affections of
Mrs. Cecil Flora Mcneil. The plaintiff is
George E. Mcneil. who is a conductor on
the New York & New Haven railroad.
Mr.. Mcneil is also a railroad evangelist
and is studying for the ministry. Mcneil
married Cecil Flora Cartwright, of Os-
wego, Tioga county, eleven years ago.
She was pretty, a graduate of Cornell Uni
versity and her parents were wealthy. Mr..
Mcneil. afterwards settled in New York,
where he met Colonel Gage, and a strong
friendship grew up between the Kentuckian
and Mr.. Mcneil. with the result that the
Colonel finally became a member of the
Mcneil household Out of these relations
grew a suit begun six weeks ago in the
Court of Common Pleas by Mcneil against
Colonel Gage for 100000 for alternating his
wife's affections. At the same time Nc
Neil sued his wife for absolute divorce,
naming Colonel Gage as correspondent. Col.
Gage and Mrs. MCNEIL have just served
answers in the suits and both make gen.
oral denials.

THE ISLE OF A
Its Ancient Customs, Its Government.

DOUGLAS. Isle Of Man.. Aug. 2S.-The
Isle Of Man is only thirty-three miles long
and twelve wide, so that 1t is not great
labor to get over II, and as two railroads
run-1 ON north to os south, and the other
it is to the visitor. Douglas. Port Erin,
Peel and Ramsey are the chief towns.
pI r I Isle cro o1 Man az rs W 7 9elong1ns to the
Irish nor Welsh, but is a separate coun-
try, with a nome-rule government and a
language Of its own; but yet with great
loyalty to the imperial government and
devotion to Queen Victoria for everywhere
you go you see pictures of the royal fam
lily. The government Is known as the
four members, elected every seven years;
but no person has a vote unless he is pos
sessed Of real estate of the value of $40,
or occupation of the value of $50 per year,
and women are also entitled to vote. The
Court of Tynwald. presided over. by the
Gna,ncl1 H-n GIve amhrac Is o fha S;sh OF the
torney-general, two judges, the clerk of
the rolls, water bailiff and the vicar gen.
eral. This council and the House of Keys
are the active government of the great
Isle of Man.
There is one feature Of special interest
in reference to the laws, and tia is hat
all laws passed by the House of Keys
are sent for the royal assent, and when
that has been secured then the law must
be formally read In the English and Manx
where the council and the Keys united
form a Tynwald court, before they become
laws. This form of reading the law at
Tynwald is the oldest style on record
was old in 1417, and has been continued ever
since. The 9Th day Of July in each year
is the day of public proclamation Of the
laws passed in the House of Keys.
The coat Of arms Of this isle is three legs
of a man in a circle. The motto, trans
lated, reads: "Whithersoever thrown. ]
shall stand" The Manxmen apparently
rather enjoy the three-legged crest. for ev-
erywhere you tLrn your face. whether at a
steamboat, a railroad, a coach, a flag. OF

enough, the cats here are without tails

The MONKEY and the chew of Gum.


A mild hammered man walked up
to the cage of an unshaved son Of the
forest, wearing among his other clothes
a prehensile tail and a face as solemn as
a Wesleyan deacon of the old fashioned
type. The monkey was critically exam
lining a peanut, wondering possibly
whether it would be worth opening.
The man laid an innocent looking little
roll of something on the outer ledge Of
the cage. Now, monkeys curiosity is
only equaled by his avarice. He will
take anything in sight whether he wants
it or not. So the ring tailed resident of
the cage took this roll in At first it
was not possible to see what he had ac-
quired, but in an instant the mystery
was solved
He placed it once to his mouth and
took a generous bite. 1t proved to be
secondhand piece of chewing gum. As
he removed his paw few onlookers
were well nigh thrown into spasms, for
the wax strung out in an ever dwindling
string, and as it drew away from him
the monkey surveyed the string calmly,
but curiously. If ever monkey ASSUME
ed an expression of heart consuming
bliss, it was that monkey. There was
just enough sugar in the pasty stuff to
make it very palatable to him, and he
curled his tail, rolled his eyes upward
with an agonizing look and murmured
to himself, "This is heaven to me. "
But the wax under his emphatic treat
ment began to show signs. of rebellion.
1t got warm and stuck in his paw, and
while he was trying to solve the prob
lem there encountered it locked his jaws.
Then he began to yawn, and to pray for
a toothpick, and to wish for the man
who had given him the gum, but that
worthy was far away Cincinnati Trib-

Early Use Of the Word astrlke..

An early use of the word strike" &C.
ours in the London Chronicle for 1855
In the September of that year are nu-
merous references to great suspension of
labor in the northern coalfield, and the
GOLFERS are stated to have Struck OUT
for higher bounty before entering into
thier usual yearly bond. " In con1rma-
ton Of Mr.. Leaton- Blenkinsopp's state

added that the strike is twice called

One of Harriet Martineau' earliest
pamphlets was tract entitled 1.-THE
Tendency of Strikes and Sticks to
Produce Low Wages" published at
Durham in 1884. The time honored il
lustration of proftless labor, carrying
Goals to Newcastle, - probably received
its first slap in the face during the strike
of 1895 A paragraph dated Newcastle,
Sept. %, in the London Chronicle, says,

day several pokes of Goals were brought
from Durham to this town by one of
the common carriers and sold ON the
