A young Polish woman, whose maid.
en- name Is us unprOnounceuble Is her
married name, which IL Knterouwske,
appeared at the Camden city hall this
morning and asked City Clerk Varncy
for q divorce. She declared that her
husband had basely deceived her and
that further union with him was q
martial impossibility.
''How long have you been married,
madam" inquired the clerk.
''Since yesterday" came the answer.
What has occurred to disturb your
nuptial joy?"
''Why my husband told me he had
81, 900 in bank, owned any quantity of
real estate and was going to let mo
live in clover. / found on getting home
that II there was any clover pasture
for me I'd have to find it myself. His
stories of bank accounts are fables,
pure and simple, while the real estate
yarn is q hollow mockery."
Mrs. KaterOuwske was very indig-
nant when told she could not get q d.
vorce outside the chancery court, which
would not grant such q document for
the reasons detailed by her.
"Humph!" she circulated as she left
the hall, ''it's very funny that the man
that married me can't unmarry me. -.

and then quietly stole out, made their
way to the meeting place, and mounted
the stand.
The mayor had one eye that looked
halfway decent, but the other was of
no use except for ornament. Ills nose
and lips were swollen, and his face was
badly discolorcd.
Mr.. Holt had both eyes partially
closed. and his mouth was twisted to
one side. lie had to tip back his head
to look Mt the audience.
Mr.. Smith arose, and spoke rs fol-
lows:
"Fellow-citizcns The candidates for

At this moment the stand came down
with a crash, and Mt the same time the
lights were extinguished. There were
sounds of a scufle, the clattcr Of horses

The Office of chief cashier Of the
Bank of England dates from the com

prominently before the public, is tho
thirteenth in order Of succession. but
he IL already the sixth In order OF
length Of occupancy of the position.
OF his predecessors the shortest reign
was that of Thomas KcnriclS, the first
chief cashier, who for some reason not
now known perhaps overwhelmed by
his responsibilitics-rctir after only
twelve days service! The longest
rcigns were those Of Thomas Madockes,
forty.onc and three-fourths years, and
Of Abraham Ncwland, twenty-nine and
thrce.fourths years.
The chief cashier may be regarded
almost MS a head permanent official OF

bu8 IrOns
In the proceedings Of the Royal 30.
cietv, Mr.. Il. Andrews calls attention
to the electro-chsmical effects on mag
netizing iron. From q long, finely
polished rod two steel bars were cut
adjacently, SO that they were prac-
tically alike in general composition
aud structure. These bars were both
weighed, and then immersed In equal
quantities of cupric chloride So
luton, n of them having previous
ly been m~agnetized. After q certain
time (six to twenty-four hours) they
were taken out of the solution, freed
from deposited copper and c~arbonace-
Gus matter, then dried, and again
weighed. 1t was found in every case
that the m~agnetized bar had lost moro
in weight than the unmagIetized bar.
For instance, an average Of twenty
nine experiments showed an increase
Of c~orrosion in the steel due to mag
netic influence OF about 3 per cent un-
der the conditions of experiment. It
may be mentioned that the bars were
not highly magnetized.

with some reason, to have achieved
success.
The L%illienthal theory Is that birds
do not exercise great power In flying.
but keep afioat in the air by the par
ticular way in which they manipulate
their wings. Reasoning upon these
lines, n flying machine has been con-
structcd upon a variety of angles, de-
signed to catch the air In whatever de
rection 1t may come, or from whatever
quarter.
The affair is built In almost exact
imitation Of the wings Of u bat; tho
delicate ribs and body arc made OF vii.
low wood, which Is tough butlight; tho
wings arc covered with light shecting,
and when spread they have n circum-
ference OF twenty square yards The
entire apparatus weighs forty pounds.
Lillienthal began his trials with the
now flying machine from tho summit
of n turrct which rises forty feet from
the ground. Adjusting the wings rs
shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton, and seating himself upon the
skeleton body of the mechanism. which,
unfortunately. must be imagined In
tho drawing, rs tho artist has consid-
cred IL so exceedingly frail as to makei 1t
indistinguishablc, the inventor pushed
himself Off from the tower top into
space, rs one would push away u boat
from the bank. Working the wings
with little effort, tho man fluttered
through the mir, finally reaching q
height Of 200 feet above the surface,
and then descended safely.
After this experiment, which salts.
fed him Of the practibility of his
theory, Mr.. Lillienthal resolved to
gradually increase the altitude, and
for this purpose he went to the steep
hill of Rhinower, IA R%athenow,
which rises to an abrupt height OF 32C
feet, its side being a stony cliff almost
perpendicular. On the top Of this hill
he built a small tower, making the en-
tire distance from the level $50 feet.
Then he adjusted his flying apparatus
and leaped of. Upon his first trial hi
sank perhaps fifty feet, and then com
menced to rise again until he hat
reached 1000 feet, and then gradually
fioated down, alighting gently upor
the road.
ORepcating his experiments for sew
eral days, he eventually reached sucl
perfection that he was able to stant
still in the air without moving tn
wings. He also travelled In circles
steering himself by the appliance
which will be noticed in the sketch Il
q semi-circular attachment, doing tn
same duty as a rudder as that done By
the tail Of a bird.

appears now to have accomplished tn

It is said that he has prepared a
speech on the Wilson bill that will at
tract widespread attention Having
gone on record on the tariff. Senator
Hill viii play his trump card. He
will announce himself IS q candidate

of course, be nominated. He viii
