on Sept. last Baron Sgadare, one Of
the best known and wealthiest mobiles OF
Palermo, died, leaving a fortune of 5000
go francs by will to his son. His family
thereupon instituted legal proceedings to
upset the WILL and in support OF their pre-
tensions produced "a second Will made out
In their favor. This second VIII has now
been proved in court to be a forgery, and
warrants for arrest have been issued
against the Barons Pohzzelo and Ram
polla both nephews of the cardinal sec
rotary of state, as well as against Baron
Carpinello as perpetrators of the forgery.
They have all three fled to America,
the notary associated with them as well
as half dozen false witnesses, all be-
longing TO the most patrician circles Of
Palermo. Naturally Prime Minister Cris-
pi, delighted of the opportunity of doing
a bad turn TO the cardinal, Is pursuing
the affair with a special vigor and venom,
and demands are being addressed for the
extradition of the fugitives.

FREEZING IN FLORIDA.
Severe Damage Avoided by Prepara-
lions for the Freeze.

Jacksonville, Fla, Dec. 6.-Freezing
weather extended as far south this morn
ing as Tampa and Titusville. A line be-
tween these two points defines 80 degrees
isotherm. In Jacksonville the lowest
temperature recorded was 27.S degrees.
Ice formed and many exposed water pipes
were frozen.
Southern express officials say that the
freeze will not do more injury than to
check the growth of the early vegetable
crop for some weeks. There have been
shipments of snap beans and egg plants.
Most of these shipments, however. have
been from vegetable centers further
south than the % degree isotherm. In To-
calities more jeopardized by their geo.
graphical position ample precautions for
protection had been taken on the
strength of warnings sent out by
the local weather bureau on the 3rd inst.
These warnings were early enough and
emphatic enough to secure full protec-
ton. The shoots of orange trees are not
thought to be hurt at all, as the growers,
almost without exception, have banked
up earth around the buds where they are
not higher than two feet, and where high-
er than that, have wrapped them with
broom sedge or other blankets

1.-THE funniest experience ever had
with a lunatic," said newspaper man,
according to the Buffalo Express, 'swas
Jack Jones experience, rather than
mine. was working for the Hearse
then and Jack was on the Microphone
We both had been sent out to the state
asylum on Forest avenue on some COM
monplace assignment, and, after we
had got what we wanted, DIR. Granger
offered to show us through the build
ings. In one of the wards, the doctor
having left us for a moment, we were
approached by an eminently respect
able, middle-aged gentleman of evil
dent intelligence, who, after quietly in
forming us that he was unjustly con-
fined, proceed to say: "Of course, gen.
tlemen, know that every mailman
believes himself to be sane, but listen
to my story before you judge"
The mans manner made an impress
sion on both of US, but 1 had run across
very cunning lunatics before. Jack,
however, became interested at once.
tThe Microphone was pretty sensational
in those days.) 1 left the lunatic tell
ing Jack a plausible tale of family per-
secution and walked away to join DR..
Granger. We completed our tour of
inspection and, on the way back, found
the inmate still talking away and Jack
taking notes like court stenographer.
l could hear some of the old gentle
mans statements, and certainly he told
a connected story, while his manner
was cool and matteT-of-fact. The scene
had attracted DR.. Grangcr's attention.
He looked and laughed and said: 'Evi-
IDENTITY your friend thinks he has sane
man there. Wait minute
Walking up to the patient, the physi-
clan. remarked: BY the way, Willxin-
son, that money of yours came to-day
"tDid it?' he said. That's good.
Then, turning to Jack, he continued:

frica and that l have been only stop
ping here until received u remittance
of one million dollars from my privy
treasurer

touched on the one weak spot in the
mans panoply. 1t is unnecessary to
add that the Microphone next day con-
tanned no scare head about insane
asylum abuses"

Chinese Courtesy.

In contradistinction to American rude
ness, Mr.. Dennis, of Boston, q man -of

Press tells of the beautiful cour-
tesy of the Chinese. There is in
all the world nothing more perfectly re-
fined and civilized than the Chinese
gentleman" he says, land in your in
tercourse with him he seems constantly
on the alert to show you by numberless
little graceful acts how much he
appreciates your friendship. A few
weeks ago." he remarked while talking
on this subject, II had occasion to visit
China, and while at Picking went to call
on n Chinese gentleman whom 1 had
formerly known in Boston. When my
card was taken in to him, instead of
rushing out with protestations of de-
light at seeing me, as we would do
under the same circumstances with
more or less sincerity, he kept me wait
ing little while so that he might pro-
cure from among his household effects
a huge Boston apple, which he had pre-
scented to me on silver tray as n sign
of welcome before he greeted me him
self. 1t was n small thing, but it dem
onstrates Il characteristic regard for

A soIf-Constituted Crior.

An important will case was being
tried in n Connecticut court, and the
jurors had come in at the afternoon
session, but the iugde was few minutes
late. Two little girls, daughters of
the testator, had been constant specta-
tors during the trial, and they noticed
the delay with, impatience. Finally,
the eldest, aged eight; climbed up into
the crier's place and cried; tOh, yeth,
oh, yeth, oh, yeth!" The youngest
girl, aged six, thereupon started in
quest,of the tardy lawyers, and as they
came into the courtroom she said:
You'd better hurry up; courts open!,
