these were present at the trial and
the developments were a nine days
sensation. He received a sentence
of six years in Jackson prison.
There he was such an admirable
prisoner that he had to serve only
four years and a half, He was
released from prison some weeks
ago, Nothing was heard from him
until this week, when a letter was
received from a new Mrs. Brown in
Buffalo. She had heard of the es-
capades of her husband, who had
deserted her, and wrote to one of
the victims who still lives in Detroit,
Brown had led to the alter in Butfa-

maker. Mr.. Brown lived with her
three weeks and then he departed.
He was next heard of at Fredonia
N. Y, where he fell in love with
another dress maker. The slight
formality of falling in love was fol-
lowed by a speedy marriage and in
exactly two weeks another deser-

WAR IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

Darlington, S. c., April 1,-Ev-
erything is quiet here to today for
the seat of war is now changed to
Columbia. The Adjutant-General
and Inspector-G General of the State
troops arrived here on a special
train, but no troops accompanied
them. The InspectorGeneral .un-
der the orders of the Governor has
travelled over the State endeavoring
to raise a force of volunteers to up
hold the dispensary law, but the in
dications are that he has met with
complete failure on all sides. All
classes of citizens are refusing to
to bear arms against South Carroll
mans, The Adjutant-General has
been in consultation with the more
conservative citizens of Darlington
today and the inference is that they
have all refused to use their influ-
ence to quiet the disturbed condi-
tions. A strong determination still
prevails, however, that Tillman's
spies shall not invade private resi-
dences.
"The spy" who was captured in
the woods near Rogers, has made
his escape. The local military have
thrown mp their commissions and
resigned by letter to the Apjutant-
General. 1t is said here that Gov.
Tillman is in possession of the rail
road and telegraph lines at Colum-
bia, and that his officers inspect ev-
cry message that is received, and
none 90 out without his authority
or sanction, Telegraphic commu-
nication is greatly hampered.

Senator Voorhees, will open the
discussion with a speech of about
two hours in length, defining the
Democratic party's position on the
question as viewed by majority Of
the committee. He will be follow

the Republican members, Beyond

the waves play pitch and toss with
you, strong indeed must be the

travellers, yachtsmen, mariners, all
testify that Hostetters Stomach

from something akin to this, and
find in the bitters its surest reme-

Equally eficacious it is for the

SATURDAY IN THE HOUSE.
The Day Principally Devoted to
Eulogies of Its Honored Dead.

WASHINGTON, March BIN recog-
milton of the personal sacrifice, made
by Speaker Crisp, on yesterday, in
refusing to accept the appointment
of the United States Senatorship,
rendered him by Governor NOrthen
of Georgia, there was a great burst
of applause, in his behalf, as he en-
the House at the opening hour, and,
advancing to the rostrum, raped
the body to order.
Immediately after the reading of
the Journal, Mr. Payne, (Rep., of
N. Y. } arose to a question of person
al privilege and made an explana-
ton of the incident which occurred
late on Thursday afternoon when
the Speaker had stated in reply to a
seeming defiance of the Chair by
Mr.. Payne, when the latter was or
dered take his seat, that he would
recognize a motion to bring the con-
tempuous member to the bar of the
House,
Mr.. Payne stated that on that
occasion the. reply which he made
(that he would take his seat when
he got ready was in response to
something said by Mr., Cultivate
not to the Chair.
Mr.. Payne's statementled to NUT
ual explanation from Mr.. Cultivate
and the speaker which seemed to
clear up the incident.
The struggle over the O'Neal-Joy
contested election case was not re-
sumed, as the day after O'Clock
by special order adopted some
time ago was devoted to eulogies
upon the late representative O'Neil,
of Pennsylvania Before the hour
arrived however, some routine bus
mess was done by unanimous con-
sent A conference was ordered on
the Senate amendments to the bill
describing limitations for perfecting
titles to land in Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho under the donation
act. On motion of Mr.. Everett
Mass J, a bill to amend the act pre-
scribing punishment for the crime
of baratry was passed, This bill,
which was asked for by the marine
insurance companies, OF New York,
Philadelphia and Boston, changed
the penalty from death to imprison-
ment for life.

What a Frenchman Believes.

The Frenchmen belief in their supe-
riority to the rest of the world in every
branch of human activity almost amounts
to q dogma With the average Frcnchman
1t is an article OF faith that If France were
blottcd out not merely the gayety of ma
tions, but civilization itself would suffer
eclipse. Every art and every science is
supposed to take its fountain head in
France.
Countless Frenchmen, for example, and
M. Theirs among the number, have be
lieved that the discovery of the law Of
gravitation is due not to Newton, but to
Pascal, and a French author of treatise
on the history of chemical theory begins it
by declaring that chemistry is French
science and was founded by Lavoisier Of
immortal memory. Even NJ. Casmir
Perier, in his message to the chambers,
could not abstain from declaring that
France was 1.-THE center of intellectual
light. 1t would be n harmless trait of
character if it was confined to the pur
suits of peace and did not extend to an in
satiable thirst for military glory.
M. Guizot, who knew bis countrymen
well, once said that there was no folly for
which they were not ready, provided only
It was a military folly, and that it was al
most impossible for a French statesman
to pursue policy of peace and not to be
accused of unpatriotic motives. Here lies
the danger of the present situation. Mac

The Fur Seal.

The fur seal-its name should be furry
sea lion--is the most celebrated of all our
fur bearers, and the United States govern
ment has been as active in protecting 1t
from destruction as it was indifferent to
the fate of the buffalo millions. If our
great international dispute with England
and Canada over the fur seal had arisen
70 years ago. before the days of peaceful
arbitration, there would surely have been
war over it. Nor is our interest in our
fur seal to be wondered at when we stop
to consider that from 1870 to 1890 our ma
tional treasury received $4,000, 900 from
the Alaska Commercial company as royalty
on the animals killed-six seventies of the
purchase price of Alaska.
When to this we add the amount re.
ceived in 20 per cent import duty Oh the
dressed skins as they came back to us from
the English dyers, the total revenue de-
rived from the fur seal in 90 years amounts
to the enormous sum of IS, 5000 Such
an animal was worth saving from destruc-
ton. No other animal ever became such
bone of contention between two great
nations for a long period, the discussion
winding up with a high and mighty con
ference of arbitration.
AS usual, the whole trouble aros,
through the greediness Of few irrespon
sible and lawless individuals. The sealer'
of the Pacific coast insisted upon taking
fur seals by shooting them in the open sea
by which wasteful process seven were los
for every three secured. But If it were no
for the loss of money revenue derived
from this animal, it is quite certain thu
government would have allowed the waste
full slaughter to go on until the last sea
was dead. st. Nicholas.

ODD NEW YORK ORDINANCES.
Che Chapter on Nuisances Contains Many
Interesting Requirements.

Some of the local regulations under
which New Workers live which IL is a
legal offense to violate or ignore are of
peculiar character, What is known as ar
ticle "a of the Revised Ordinanccs-the
chapter on nuisanccs--is perhaps the most
peculiar of all Any person, 1t says, who
shall permit any bear or other noxious or
dangerous animal to run Mt large, or who
shall lead any such animal with chain or
rope or other appliance, whether such ami
NAL be muzzed or unmuz2led, in any
street, avenue lane, highway or public
place within the corporate limits of New
York shall bo deemed guilty of a misdo-
meanor. Any person, says section $40 OF
this chapter, who shall raise or fly any
kite in any street, lane, avenue or public
place south of Fourteenth street shall be
fined So No goat shall be permitted to go
at large on any street, avenue lane, alley
pier or wharf under penalty of SO for ov
cry such goat found at large, to be paid by
the owner or by the person having charge,
care or keeping of such goat"
a IS goats cannot be impounded, the ar
rest of Il stray goat in conformity with the
ordinance quoted, even If the goat de-
Tense did not make such attempted action
impracticable, would be an i'll advised pro
ceoding, as the board of aldermen has not
provided any place to which an offending
goat may be taken. Section 236 declares
same chapter of nuisanccs-that no per
son shall bring into the city of New York
or have in his, her or their possession in
said city any oysters between the LIST of
May and the 1st of September in any year
under penalty of fine of So. No person
shall swim or battle in any of the waters

cept in public or private bathing houses,

grocer, innkecper, tavern keeper or any
other person shall have in his, her or their
premises any flying horse or horses or
whrligig or roundabout or other machin-
cry or device, by whatever name it may be
called, under penalty of $50.
No person shall use or perform with or
