Law AND LONG SKIRT
rrussian Deputies Debate Dress Trains
and Measures Against Them.

rrussian Deputies Debate Dress Trains
n and Measures Against Them.
The Prussian government promised
to consider the expediency of forbid
ding women to wear trains on the pub
lie promenades. The subject was in
troduced in the house by Deputy Count
Douglas, conservative, social reformer
and intimate friend of the emperor. The
condensed report of the debate is.
Count Douglas-In view of the spread
of infectious diseases I regard 1t as de-
sirable to direct the governments at
tention to the wholesome action Of the
Meran police in prohibiting women
from wearing trains on the public
promenades. ! think that public opin-
ion should be aroused on the subject by
the press. 1t is the opinion OF all au-
thoritieS that street dust Is filled with
the germs of infectious diseases and
that it carries these diseases into the
lungs of pedestrians. If women can
once be convinced that when they
sweep the streets with their skirts they
are spreading disease far and wide,
believe their consciences will triumph
over the tyranny Of fashion and vanity.
DR.. Lagerhaus, radical unionist-I do
not deny that women stir up a poison
Gus dust in the streets with their long
skirts and that many bacteria are THUG
scattered through the air we breathe
This is not the main point, however,
The worst of dress trains is that they
gather the filth of the streets, and car
ry it, laden with germs of disease, in
to the home, the nursery, and the bed
room. 1t is very hard to conquer a
fashion, however. Perhaps the best
means of counteracting the danger in
this case is to teach women that they
should carefully cleanse their street
dresses upon returning from prom
enade. Government Councilor-in-Chief
Lindig, replying for the ministry
can assure the gentlemen who have TAX
en- part in this noteworthy discussion
that the cabinet will consider carefully
the suggestions made. Special atten-
ton shall be given to the suggestion
that the existing police regultions need
amendment regarding the wearing of
long skirts in the streets. Councillor
Lindig's reply has been hailed with Joy
by the dress reformers of Berlin. They
are living in hope of an order against
trains from the department of the in
terror. They think that the Berlin
police ought at least do as much as the
police of Meran.

a CRUEL MAN

A sensation was created few days
ago in which the widow of the late
George Manley and Montrose w. Thorn
ton are the central figures. Several
months ago young Thornton wooed
and won Mrs. Manley, who is far his
senior in years. The conclusion is
obvious. Money she possessed seemed
to be the ruling motive for his
matrimonial action. Since the marriage
he has been at home very little and
when at home was only there to hold a
monetary conference and replenish his
exchequer. She married Thornton in
direct opposition to the advice of
friends, relatives and wellwishers. He
went home few days ago. and in a
locked room under the threat of doing
great bodily injury, forced his wife to
deed him her property and otherwise
inundated her.
He has since been arrested and lodged
in jail The rules of common decency
demand that such betrayers and I'M
principled ''hongh boughs'' be brought
to immediate justice. There is not
spark of manhood in such a brute. Not
only is the action of Thornton wrong,
but it is doubly wrong, for he paraded
in the title role as a minister of the
gospel. Evidence points to the fact
thpt lie was disciple OF him who was
cast out of heaven.
He might have been power for
good. but he lacked principle. He was
by glorious opportunities,
but he lacked character He was at
the spring of life, bu The lacked the
love of God in his heart.

travellers and caravans of freighters in
past years. One story is to the effect
that in 1880 bandits attacked a richly
laden train of wagons heavily guarded

enough, the bandits seemed to carry
off the dead with them. No trace of
them was ever found.

QUEER FRENCH LAW.
Plays Suppressed il Man Objects to
Use IF His Name

Plays Suppressed II Man OBJECTS to
Use of His Name.
There is a law in France which en-
bitters the life of every dramatic
author, as 1t confers upon every
French citizen the right of having a
novel or play Immediately suppressed
by the police if his name happens to
be mentioned in it.
In their anxiety to avoid unpleas-
antness the parodists Of the Cluny
theater decided to designate the char
acters in recent piece by numbers.
The effect thus produced is somewhat
peculiar, as, for instance:
"Ah! charming 1872, you are the
most adorable of ell women"
"And you are flatterer, Count 49,"
While the two were thus exchang-
ing compliments an elderly gentle
man suddenly appears, and calls out
in a voice of thunder:
II have caught you now, Count Is!
Are there any towards in your
family?"
"Graciousr' whispered Count 1S,
trembling in his shoes. Gracious!
Duke 3d.
'tSeventy-fourw exclaims the Duke,
turn this gentleman OUT"
But at this point fellow in the
audience springs to his feet.
THAT is really too bad" he shouts in
the direction of the stage. Il will
send you summons"
TT, NIL in r;co
What have you to complain Of?
Seventy-four is only a number
That's just it. 1t is the very num-
Der I bore when in Jail, and I am not
going to be degraded by having serv-
ant dubbed with it,.
Everybody had to give in to that
argument, says the Pittsburg Dis
patch. 1t was the law. The play was
stopped there and then.

DEATHS.

DIED-Mrs. Gertrude Curtley, wife of
Mr.. Isaac Curtley, Tuesday after a
lingering illness of several months
Deceased, had she lived until Friday,
April Goth, would have been 90 years of
age. She was born in Oskaloosa. She
came to this city July G. 1881, at the
age of 12 years Her childhood and
school days We're spent here and her
many friends and schoolmates feel the
loss of most anna Bile lady. She was
twice married and was devoted wife
and helpmeet. During her long illness
she was optimistic and fully realized
that all things are for the best. Thus
her sufferings were borne in a true
Christian spirit.
The funeral occurred from st. Paul's
A. NJ. e. church Thursday afternoon,
Rev. Clark officiating. The edifce was
CT DIVIDED to its utmost with friends and
relatives who had come from far and
near to pay their tribute of earthly
respect. The bereaved family have the
sy mpathy of all who know them.

Mrs. George Stanton, died April %,

A Princess and Her Violin.


Grand Duchess Olga, the 13-year-old
sister of the empress of Russia, is just
now source of great anxiety to her
relatives, and especially to her mother.
Some celebrated German and French
specialists have been recently in ST.
Petersburg, with the object of diagnos-
ing her case, and she is to accompany
her mother to the south of France,
where she will undergo medical treat
ment. She has never recovered from
the shock of the terrible railroad acct
dent at Borki, which in some way APP
pears to have affected the development
of her physique, though not of her
mind, for she is a remarkably intelii-
gent girl, and has inherited in particu-
lar her mothers talent for music She
is especially proficient on the violin,
Of which she is passionately fond, and
which she has been playing for the
past five years. Many people and not
a few doctors have expressed the opin-
ion that her playing several hours
every day on the violin may be partly
responsible for her stunted and slight
ly deformed physique. There is GER
tainly no musical instrument more cal
culated to affect injuriously the figure
of a young and growing girl than the
violin, owing to the position in which
the body is held while playing 1t is
probable that the doctors will now def
initely insist on what they have al
ready recommended, namely, that the
princess shall put her violin aside for
a time, at any rate, pending the treat
ment which she is about to undergo.

Every Russian landed would find ten

slider such possibilities before deciding
