Jean Bart's Last Descendant.

From Paris the death is announced of
the last Observation-Disclosures de Tersud-
Of Jean Bart, who lives in history as a
famous French corsair, his portrait be-
ing still a common one on village inn
sign posts. Bart was quite romantic
character and earned the national graf
itude by accepting commission to fight
against the Dutch, though he hal no
connection with the French navy. Cap
tured by the English, he made daring
escape from Plymouth, which so en-.
HANGED his reputation that Louis XIV
gave him position in the navy and en-
powered him to wear the flower de- hce
in his coat of arms. Nine. de Tersud,
whose maiden name was Melanie Bart,

MARRIAGE BETWEEN WOMEN,
A Trial In q London Court Reveals q Plot
Worthy of the Dime Novel.


The legal world of London is much
exercised over the complications likely
to ensue from revelations made in trial
which has been had before Mr.. Justice
Chitty. 1t appears that in a marriage
contracted in 1865, which up to the
present time was thought to be valid,
both parties were women.
In the year mentioned Mrs Rachel
Elizabeth Cullener, a widow, was har
eSsed by creditors who wanted to attach
the income she derived from the will of
her husband. This income, by the will,
she would lose if she married again.
She had living with her son and daugh-
ter, together with Miss Sophia New
land, cousin of Mrs. Cullener's late
husband.
The whole family was suffering for
want of food, when it was suggested by
the daughter that her mother marry
again, after which her children would
collect the income and support her. 1t
was difficult to find husband who
could be trusted. So Mrs. Cullener, in
mans clothes, under the name of James
was ludIIl0u Ou0
Miss Sophia Newland, who at the mar
riage ceremony took the name of Mrs
Cullener.
Both signed their borrowed names ir
the register of the parish, and Mrs. New
land lived with Mrs. Cullener until 1888.
Both have testified ON the trial to the
facts here narrated Mr.. Justice Chitty
refused to believe the witnesses and dis
missed the case, holding that a woman
who has, by her own admission, been
for years ''steeped in fraud" has no right
to complain if the courts decline to be-
ieve her when she comes forward in
her own interest to impeach solemn
entry in marriage register, the accura-
cy of a recital in a deed to which she
was herself party and the plain in
tent and meaning of the course of con-
duct which she has pursued.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies, Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the

When this tube gets infiamed you have a
Tumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition. hearing will be destroy

caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous

LONDON. July 27.--ConsiderabIe in
terest has been aroused here in the re-
port TO the United States congress by
the committee on commerce, accom-
panying Congressman Mallory's Mica
faguan UnnRf Dill, and the statement
that the differences between the Mica
raguan Canal company and the govern.
ment OF Nicaragua have been settled ie
industriously circulated in London
financial circles. In 1888 group oi
men. headed by Colonel North, which
includes large following in Liverpool,
OF which Mesars. w. & ]. Lockell are
the leading representatives, put on
paper financial plan, and were pre-.
pared to find 99. 100000 in cash to help
build the canal. The most important
member Of this combination would
have been Lord Rothschild, who cum
moned conference OF the heads
of the firm. The Paris house, however.
made such strenuous opposition to the
Rothschilds being known in connection
with the Nicaragua canal in view OF the
then approaching dissolution of the
Panama company, that Lord Rothschild
told H. F. Pollock and Messrs. Paine,
Son & Pollock, that he would still con-
tinue in the project, but that it must be
30 arranged that j. s. Morgan should. in
his own name represent the r oths-
childs. The syndicate plan at that time
went through, owing to the disputes as
to title between the Menocal and Black
man companies. Then the Menocal
people succeeded in raising money in
Glasgow from the Coates Arthur group
of Glasgow capitalists.
The matter is now again on the tapis
in London. A certain mysterious
American of the name of Reid has ar
rived here and has again approached
the North group, Mr.. Robert Harvey
and others. Mr.. Reid's plan, however,
does not aim at finding the capital for
cutting the canal. The Nicaragua Ca.
nal Construction company, of which ex-
Senator Warner Miller was president,
is. as every body knows. in the hands of
q receiver. Mr.. Reid is trying to raise
G40, 900 to buy from the receiver on be.
half of q London syndicate controlling
interest-51 psr cent-in the shares of
the construction company at SIS per

the fact ia to be trumpeted throughout
the United States that a British syndi-
cate has bought up the Nicaraguan canal
and utter dismay is to be thus created.

to Americans at very handsome ad-
vance per share. He has already Sec
