The Young will case was taken up again
before Judge Cole this morning with testi
mony on recall by Leo Dowd, who said his
father told him James E. Young was of un-
sound mind. His father had sworn that

sure he did.
The question of instructions was then
taken up. After these were settled it was
agreed that each side should take two hours
in argument. Mr.. Lipscomb began for the
caveator, Mr.. Thomas Young. He argued
that Mr.. James Young was incapable of
making a will; forther, II he were able to
make his will he did moi sign the instrument
presented for probate as his Will.

Making Gonld.s Moner F1Y.

Much comment is being made in
Paris and at the fashionable French
watering places over the extravagance
OF young Count Boni de Castellane,
who since taking up his residence in
the French capital after his marriage
with Miss Anna Gould, has already
spent 81, 100000 in the purchase OF
bric-a.b .brac alone. This does not in
clude the lavish subscriptions to all
those popular funds soi-disant in be-
half of charity, but which the Partisan
newspapers organize for the purpose
of advertising and booming their cir
culation. Nor yet the sums which he
has dropped at cards and on the race
course. When, in addition to this, it
is taken into consideration that he has
purchased without even making an at
tempt to discuss terms several plots of
land in the most valuable quarter of
Paris, and that he is about to erect
thereon, regardless of expense,
modern reproduction of Queen An
toinette's Trianon, it must be con-
fessed that the young French noble
man is making the Gould dollars fly
at rate which would have consider
ably startled the thrifty creator OF the
immense Gould fortune. Boston

Experiments in Marching.

Experiments in marching were
made by some Berlin medical students
lately at the request of the German
War Office. The marches varied from
twenty-five to thirty-three miles and
the loads from forty-eight to sixty.
eight pounds, the full equipment OF
the German infantry soldier being
seventy pounds. With forty-eight
pounds in cool weather, sixty degrees
Fahrenheit, march of twenty-five
miles can be easily made with no i'll
effects, and can be repeated for some
days consecutivclg. At seventy de.
grees the same load has considerable
temporary effect, requiring ten hours
rest in the twenty-four. A load OF
sixty eight pounds cannot be carried
twenty-five miles without iniuring the
man, making q full days rest on the
following day necessary; fifteen miles
is as far as the loal eau be carried
from day to day without harm; sixty
pounds is as much as can be carried
by man weighing 15o pounds for
twenty-five miles on consecutive days
in ordinary summer weather.-NeW

New York,s Essimo DOGS.

Up at the Central Park Menagerie
now are five fierce IGskimo dogs that
have just arrived from Greenland,
brought down by the relief ship sent
to bring home Lieutenant Peary and
his two companions. One of the dogs
is especially interesting, for he is the
only survivor of forty-one dogs that
made the terrible journey across the
ice cap last spring. The party was
gone about two months, starting late
in April from the arctic camp where
they had spent the long winter, pre-
pairing for the trip. Awful storms were
encountered, their food gave out, the
dogs became exhausted one by one,
and were killed to afford food for
those that could still pull the sledges
and also for the three men. when
nothing else could be had. Finally,
two days from camp on their return,
the fortieth dog was finished, but the
last one held out, and was spared, to
be brought to New York, where many
of you will like to SEQ him. His name
is Snow Cap, as tho keeper will tell
you, and, though he is an ugly look
ing beast, he must be admired and re-
spected for his staying powers.-New
York Times.

A Irlck Of tha Ricrcle Trale.

s'The prices of bicycles, according
to the manufacturers lists. have not
diminished much, "said New Yorker,
who is up in the secrets of the trade
at the Raleigh this morning, "Dut
riders in New York are getting wheels
a good deal cheaper by means of an
ingenious system, recently adopted by
retail dealers. You know each dealer
in bicycles signs an agreement not to
sell new machine below the figures
marked on the price list. Well, in
Gotham this agreement is rigidly ad-
hered to in its letter, but knocked
galley west when it comes to its in-
.ention. The scheme is simply this:
When person enters bicycle deal
er's establishment in search of wheel
he is shown the collection. He asks
the prices, and is told that this make
is 500, that one $110, the other $40
and SO on. If he demurs at the price,
as he is pretty apt to, the deaier tells
him that if he will come in again next
day there may be good secondhand
wheel in at a lower price. The visitor
leaves, and then the dealer puts the
bicycle that most snited his fancy on
the rent list and hires it out to the
first one who calls for machine by
the hour. When the inquirer calls
again he is shown the same wheel that
he wanted the day before, but the price
is only $65. The two or three hours
use as hired wheel has made ita sec-
ond-hand article. This trick is being
universally played in New York, and
I reckon dealers in Washington and
elsewhere will get on to it in course
of time. Washington Star.

punishinr Prisoners in China.

The unhappy prisoners, writes
traveller from China, were fogged as
they were ignominiously paraded
round and dragged mercilessly along,
for they could hardly move, each hav-
ing a large wooden collar board, three
feet by 81 feet, and 81 inches thick,
attached to his neck. The board is in
two parts, each of which contains two
semi. circular apertures. The half
boards are screwed together, 30 as to
form huge collar frame, leaving the
head and one of the hands visible
above. A chain is attached to the
board, by the other end of which the
warder drags the prisoner. On the
board are inscriptions in Tibetan and
Chinese, giving an account OF the
nature of the crime and penalty in.
hicted. The poor wretches were
ready to sink under the weight OF the
board, but this they were not allowed
to do; whenever one attempted to sit
down the whip of his cruel warder
served to keep him up. Nineteenth

Hot Milk as a S!imulant.

A medical paper Of high standing
recommends hot milk instead of beer,
whisky or other alcoholic stimulants,
in cases of great fatigue and over
exertion of body and mind. It's re-
viving influence, when taken as hot as
it can be slipped, is remarkable. Its
effect is promptly felt and lasting,
and even those who have been accus.
toned to the use of alcoholic bever.
ages will find this substitute remark.
ably satisfying. This is especially
true of overworked women, for whom
physicians sometimes prescribe beer
and other mild stimulants. The mo.
mentary exhiliaration felt is the only
whip applied to an exhausted body,
while the hot milk is digested and
gives nourishment and real strength.
The fact is that real value of milk
and butter and cheese as foods is only
half appreciated in America. In the
old countries where meats are rarely
on the table of the middle and poorer
classes, milk and cheese are leading
articles of food.-Farm, Field and

A Hint 10 Anarchists.

AS was reported some weeks ago, a
letter sent to Rothschild at Paris ex-
ploded on being opened. There was
nothing new in that. Years ago many
missives thus loaded were sent to
members of the British Psrliamentand
others known to lie opposed to Irish
home rule. 1t is an old trick, and its
resurrection at this day has excited
the scorn of a progressive Partisan
chemist. He advises the anarchists
as follows: 'If you want to kill
somebody, send him an urgent letter
and inclose poisoned stamp for re-
turn postage. The man who moistens
the stamp with his tongue pre-
sumably the right man-expires in.

name of the poison to be used, but is

New Trick OF PickpOckets.

Thomas Murray, who, the police soy,
is a noted crook, was arraigned in a
New York City Police Court, charged
with stealing watch from John ID.
Todd, dealer in artificial flowers.
Todd, while walking through Four
teenth street, saw two men, who came
out Of restaurant. appear to quarrel.
One of them punched the other in the
eve. While Todd stock watching
them a third man, who said he was q
detective, placed the men who were
fighting under arrest. AS they started
awav the man who had been struck
turned to Todd and said:
scIou saw this row. Wont you
com, to the station house and tell
what you saw"
Todd said he would, and the four
men moved toward Third avenue, fol-
lowed by the crowd which had collect
ed. When they reached Third ave-
nue. the supposed detective stopped,
and said he would let the two men go
if they promised not to fight again.
The three talked it over for a few
minutes, and then the two men who
had been fighting and the detective
disappeared.
Todd now put his hand in his pock-
ct to get his watch. aud was surprised
to find it gone. Murray, who was
standing beside him, looked innocent,
but Detective Webb, who had crossed
from the opposite corner to see what
the crowd had collected for, arrested
Murray when he learned that Todd's
watch had been stolen. The watch
was foand on the sidewalk under Muir
rays foot.
The fight and arrest of the scrap.

1t is new game played by crowd OF
pickpockets, who rob the crowd which
collects. Murray, they say, is one OF
the gang. Murray was held for ex

81 Will Obey"

A Chicago woman has been investi-
eating a much discussed subject with
results acceptable to the mass of wo-
men. She says: 81 was told that you
could not get married unless you
promised to obey your husband. To
nv surprise I find that there is no au-
thority for it whatever. In the early
Christian church the pastor merely put
the question, 'Do you, Jane, take this
man for your husband?' and DO you,
John, take this woman for your wife?'
That's all there was to it. The
Roman Catholic church, the Greek,
Coptic> and Armenian have followed
the same practice. The Church OF
England, in the time of Henry III,
and one or more of the German
churches, introduced the word obey,
and that's where it comes from. L
hardly fancy that that monarch is a
good man to pattern after"
