COLD STORAGE FOR HUSBANDS.
Boston's Great Scheme to Secure to
the Absent Housewife Peace
of Mind.

Of Mind.
The resources Of modern civiliza-
ton are capable of meeting nearly
all the demands of the woman who
wants to 60 into the country for
the summer with a free mind, alb
solutely devoid Of care for the
home she leaves behind her. There
are storage warehouses where she
may safely bestow all her houses
furnishings, safe deposit vaults for
her valuables, places where her
dog, her cat, her canary can enjoy
all the comforts of a home.
But in one most important and
essential point modern civilization
fails this woman. For IL not the
most valued, certainly the most
important and frailest object in
her urban encourage, the source Of
more anxiety and care than all the
other accidents of her environ
ments combined, no place Of safe
bestowal is provided. To her ques-
ton. "What shall 1 do with my hus-
band?" modern civilization returns
no answer. She cannot take him
along. In the first place, he won't
go; in the second place, she doesn't
want him. But there Is no safe
place to put him. She must leave
him knocking about, entirely out
of view Of his lawful guardian an
gel, the sport of fate and bachelor
acquaintance, subject to all
the risks against which her
presence by his side ordin-
arily insures him. The result is
that many a woman who really
needs and deserves long summer
rest abandons her cherished pro-
ject, and the proprietor of some
summer resort loses her patronage.
We are pleased to learn that In
Boston, whence all good things
come, this want has been recog-
nized, and an effort that promises
to be successful has been made to
supply 1t. A cold storage ware
house for husbands has been es-
tablished by "refned widow
lady," who offers to contract with
wives about to depart for the sea-
shore or the mountains, to store
their husbands during their abb

sence and return them in as good
condition ae when received at
the end Of the season.
Her establishment has some
slight resemblance, it must be con.
fessed, to the ordinary boarding
house of commerce, but the resem-
blance lie only superficial. The
great feature Of her plan is con-
slant supervision OF her charges.
Every care will be taken to inter-
est and amuse them, but the strict
est discipline will be maintained.
No latchkeys will be allowed, an
efficient corps Of stalwart assist
ants or keepers will be maintained,
and, In the terse and significant
language OF the prospectus, "no
funny business" will be allowed.
II the "refined widow lady" is Of
sufficient age and hideousness to
invite feminine confidence, il she
has the record she claims as a
stern and uncompromising mana
ger OF husbands, the hotel-keepers
at the resorts frequented by Bos.
tonese may anticipate an unusual.
ly profitable summer. There may
be some little difficulty in Turing a
husband into the asylum, but once
she has got him there, his wife
may depart for her "villegiatura'
with a mind free from anxiety as
to his safety.--(New Orleans

Big Spring freshets did much damage in New
England last week. At Keene, n. H., the dam
at Fairfeld's reservoir or Beech Hill, gave way,
leaving gap about 80 feet wide. The torrent
of water poured down into the streets and low
lands. The streets were wnshcd out ut Fly

ing the snow in the mountains caused a big
rise of waters. and, in consequence, many hum
dreds of acres of interval land are under water.

THE LATE GOV. MARVIL

All Delaware Hon0rs its Dead Executive.
Never was Laurel SO crowded az on April IL.
Hundreds came from all parts of the State to
attend the funeral Of the late Gov. Joshua II.
Msrvil. People drove from all parts of the
country, and the regular and special trains from
Wilmington aud Dover added a large contin-
gent to the throng. Among them were many
notable persons and host OF the leading and
active members Of both political parties from
al sections of the State. The body of the dead
Governor lay in state at his late residence, and
Was viewed by hundreds who poured through
the house in a steady stream from early in the
morning until the hour for the funeral arrived.
Co. ], n. q. d., of Laurel. acted as guard Of
honor at the house and church, and also as an
escort to the funeral procession. At the funeral
services the large II. L. Church was crowded
to its utmost capacity.
Just before Mr. Marvils nomination for
Governor be went to the Laurel marble cutter
and ordered stone for his grave. Ii was TO
comprise 12-inch granite slab, TO cover the
top of the grave with his name and date OF
birth and death carved upon the face. About
two months ago he sent his son, J. Dallas Mar
vii, to countermand this order and leave direc-
tons for the construction OF marble tomb,
similar to the over the grave OF his wife,
which is q beautiful piece Of sculpture.

founded on warrants and pretended surveys

founded on warrants and pretended surveys
made in 1894. Most of these grants pur-
port TO have been signed by Gov. Mathews
The action of his Executive Council as well
as the several orders to the Surveyor-Gen-
eral 10 pass no grant to any one person for
more than 900 acres, as well as his APP
prevail Of the act of 1894, all show his act
ion to be honest and his purpose to obey
the law.
My attention has been called to an arti-
Gle which appeared some while back in one
of the Savannah papers stating that the
Supreme Court of the United States in the
famous Dodge land case, had decided these
grants good. No such decision was ever
made. The Dodge lands involved in the
litigation were lottery lands, as contradis-
tinguished from head-right lands.
regret to learn that there are few
persons in this State who either ignorantly
or otherwise advise some of the holders of
these old grants that they are good and
valid. These old grants are now on the
market in almost every city, certainly in
every Northern and Western State. 1 have
received more than 100 letters in regard to
them; and have been visited by a number
of gentlemen from different States, some of
whom have invested in them, and others
who desired to investigate the titles.
The law required that an actual survey
should be made of all the lands granted in
this State. Such surveys were never made
of any of the lands referred to in this letter.
Thousands and hundreds of thousands of
acres are purported to have been surveyed
in single day. This was simply impossi-
BILE, as the distance around each 1000 acre
tract is about five miles. Several hundred
thousand acres are reported to have been
surveyed on dates that fell on Sunday.
