THE MURDER OF SUSIE MARTIN.


Prevent idsntincation.
NEW YORK, March 2l.-rhe trunk of the
child that was found headless and with
out arms and legs In tho cellar of the
tenement house 5l7 West Thirty ninth
street has been positively identified by
Mr.. and Mrs. John Martin, of e53 Eleventh
avenue, as the body of their 11-year-old
daughter Susie, who disappeared mysteri-
ously on the afternoon of Thursday
March o,
more complete and careful examina-
tion of the body confirmed the fact that ii
was sawed md hacked to pieces by some
one other than a medical student, aud that
it YVES afterwards boiled, probably to hide
the evidences of the crime. The most
commonly accepted theory is that the
child strayed from homei and was enticed
into resort by some of the dock laborsrs
who abound In that vicinity.

ly. There are certain number of novelties
put out every season that for some reason,
good or bad, do not hit the fashionable
fancy, aud so the shelves of the shops are
clogged with them.
There are occasionally, on the contrary,
other novelties that at once spring so unex-
pectedy into popular favor that dealers find
that their caution In buying has resulted in
their stock OF thsgoods running out during
the very height of the demand for it. As it
takes about six weeks to order and obtain
goods from manufacturers in the other
hemisphere, establishments are often timid
about sending for another lot, fearing that
by the time the secopd consignment ar
riyes the popularity . the material will
have waned
Sleeves of different material from that OF
the gown are still seen, especially on elabo-
rate toilets Rich fabrics, of which a wide
variety is shown this spring are used for
this purpose and are also employed for the
bertha or the front of the eorsage and occa-
sionally to form . panel in the skirt. Fine
brocades and damasks are thus utilized,
and both plain and embroidered velvets,
while the body OF the gown is of silk or
wool goods. A charming costume made Of
hazel nut brown drap de sole is cut in prin-
cess form and closes invisibly in front, The
immense balloon sleeves, very tight below
the elbow, are Of mauye MORE dotted with

A Musical Legend of the Chinese.

The Chinese have some extraordinary
superstitions relating to music. Accord
ing to their queer notions, the Creator
Of the universe hid eight sounds in the
earth for the express purpose of COM
polling man to find them out On the
same principle, 1t Is presumed, Jupiter,
according to Virgil, hides fire in fiints
and honey in trees in order to whet the
ardor Of mans industry to persevere in
his efforts to rediscouer the hidden treas
ures.
According to the Celestial idea, the
eight primitive sounds are hidden in
stones silks, woods of various kinds, the
bamboo plant, pumpkins, in the skins
of animals, in certain earths and in the
air itself. ANY one who has ever had the
pleasure u Of seeing and listening to q
Chinese orchestra will remember that
their musical intruments were made Of
all these materials except the last, and
that the combined efforts of the other
seven seemed better calculated to drive
the ethereal sound away than to coax il
from the air, which is really the object
of all Chinese musical efforts. When the
bands plays, the naive credulity of the
people, both old and young; hears in
the thuds of the gongs and the whistline
of the pipes the tones of the eternal
sounds of nature that were originally
deposited in the various animate and in
animate objects by the all wise Father.

Food and Digestion.

One of the biggest mistakes about food
which people make is to forget that the
true value of food to anybody is the
measure of its digestibility. Half a pound
of cheese is vastly more nourishing, as
regards it's mere composition, than half
a pound of beef, but while the beef will
be easily digested, and thus be of vast
service to us, the cheese is put out Of
court altogether for ordinary folks by
reason of its indigestibility. We should
bear this rule in mind when we hear
people comparing one food with another
in respect Of their chemical value.-Ncw

Learning to Swim.

A useful device has been designed for
learning the motions of swimming. 1t
consists of wire stretched tightly across
the swimming bath. Two grooved pull
leys run along the wire, and rope is
passed through the lower pulley reach
ing to the surface of the water. A belt
of special make is Worn by the pupil,
which, by means Of swivels and rings,
allows the weayer to lie in any desired
position. AS soon as tho swimmer ac-
quires the proper motions, the wheel
moves along the wire. This makes the
lesson interesting and much less fati-
guing than the old method OF pole and
ope.--Engineering.

Cenenting Quicksands,

The we'll known German engineer,
Neukirch, in a paper on making foun-
dations in qniolzsand, urges that the
sand on which the foundation is to rest
be converted into solid concrete by
blowing into it, by air pressure, pow
dered dry hydraulic cement, using u
inch pipe drawn 10 point at ita
lower end and having three or more
three eighth inch holes. In practice this
pipe is Joined at its upper end by rub
Der rube to an injector, which is con-
neoted to source Of compressed air and
is fed with dry cement, the sinking Of
tho pipe to the depth required being
facilitated by blowing air through it
during its descent and setting it in mo-
ton, depth reaching to 10 feet being
thus quickly accomplished. After this
the cement is fed in and carried into
the sand by the air, which, being forced
up through the former, insures thor
ough mixture with the cement, and the
tube is then slowly withdrawn, the sup
ply Of cement being continued until it
reaches the surface, the concrete formed
in this way taking several weeks to
harden and requiring some months to
attain its full strength. Further, the
whole area to be treated is divided into
a number Of small areas Of about a
square foot each, and the tube being
sunk successfully and operated on each
of the squares it is found that the mix
ture of the sand and cement produced
occupies less space than did the sand
alone before the operation. This method
OF operation has been resorted to suc-
cessfully in Golfer dam construction and
sewer work, where such had to be laid
in quicksand. New York Sun.

"The traditional notion of fish
out of water is that of a helpless
gasping creature" remarked Aus
tin w. Phelps, of Springfield,
Mass, at the Lindell last night.
"There are some fish, however, that
deliberately choose to diversity
their existence by seeking land and
air. The perch often leaps into the
air for flies, and can be carried long
distances in damp grass without
suffering harm. One of this spe-
cies, which is common in India,
often leaves his pool and takes a
short journey over the grass"

they withdrew their business from

Lucius Simonton. He felt he
had been recreant to his duty
in letting his wife indulge her
eXtravagant tastes, but he
ardently loved his wife, and what
husband, that loves his wife, will
not allow her to crafty her taste
for show and dress. Lucine ST.
manton repaired his error, as far
as possible to do, he surrendered
everything to his creditors, who
felt no hesitation in stripping
him to the bone. Creditors are not
burthened with conscientious
scruples, humanity, sympathy, and
charity, but are resolute to exact
their money,or the"pound of flesh"
Mrs. Simonton sued for a divorce
on the ground of nOn-support,
while her husband, Inundated,
disheartened, and broken hearted,
removed to the City of Denver.
He never recovered from the blow
inflicted by the heartless conduct
of his wife, whom he loved to the
verge of infatuation and idolatry,
In suing for a divorce on the
ground Of non-support, after she
had ruined him by her unbridled
extravaganza, and his subsequent
life was brief, and miserable. He
sought to drown his grief by
drink, and gradually sunk into
sottishness and mental imbecility.
His wife married rich widower,in
st. Louis, blazed forth a planet in
fashionable society columns of the
st. Louis papers, squandered her
husbands mOney-embittered the
lives of her step children and end
ed by clipping with an Italian
count, who turned out to be the
thievish valet of a nobleman.
Mr.. Rutherford, at the end of
three years after his marriage
was not only out Of debt and in
good standing, financially, but
had quite a snug sum in bank
and he and his wife were content
ed and happy and free from veX-
ing cares and approximations of
every description. This happy
state Of things, was, as John Ruth
told his wife, while he clasped her
lovingly to his breast, at is all
owing to you, little woman-you
have truly been helpmate to me.
Had you been such another wo-
man as poor SimontOn's wife,
am sure l would be in the same de-
plOrable condition bankrupted,
dishonored, blighted and dis
heartened. God bless you, little
woman"

and happiness from this veritable
story, if they will ponder the NOR
al wrapped up in it. Tony.

You look with possibly misplaced.
But quite unstinted, admiration;
You do not share as yet / know

Who write long articles to show
The swift decline of modern fiction.
You do not cultivate a cause
Much advertised in largest letters.
Nor seek Tor popular applause
BY taxing on your seN's letters
They charm you not those fierce delights
So dear to all our lady fighters:
You care, l think, for Women's rights
AS little as for women writer's.

You say, without the least misgiving.
That spite of what the Sages hold
Existence is still worth the living.
Nor will you readily obey
Those mournful, phioSophic wishes
Which urge mankind, without DELAY.
To turn themselves to food for fishes.

Deserve our most sincere compassion,
