LOVES DESPERATE RUSE.
Children Dear-r Than Eonor-Eow
Woman Saved Her Babies.

From the New York Advertiser.

Philadelphia, Dec. 29.-Pretty Mrs.
Ida L. Hughes, whose husband recently
secured a divorce appeared in court in
Camden yesterday, having been sum-
moned in proceedings instituted by her
husband who sought to obtain custody Of
her children.
One Of the children IS years old and
the other 20 months. The older one, a lit
tie girl, began to cry and chung about ner
mothers knees, and the baby put up its
tiny arms and stroked the mothers
cheeks. There was no charge against
the character Of Mrs. Hughes, the father
simply saying she was not in position TO
care for the children, and he wanted them
under his control. It seemed certain she
would lose them. Suddenly she said:
Lei me be sworn. These are my chill
dren. / love them and Will care for them.
You who secured divorce would rob me
OF them, but you shall not. You demand
them on the ground that you are their
father. You are not.'
She sank into a chair. The husband,
who was transfixed by establishment, said
that If the children were not his he had
no power over them and did not want
them. The hearing was adjourned.

A SAGE IN A TIGHT PLACE.
Prof. Abdullah Needed All His Wis
dom TO Get Out.
From the New Sun.

The photograph of pretty woman with
big eyes and wavy hair stood until recently
on the desk in parlor in East Fourteenth
street where Prof Abdullah receives his
clients. Abdullah is a professor of com
mon sense, and he has large crentage to
whom he gives the benefit Of his sage ad-
vice and of years of experience in all parts
of the world at fixed rates. Whenever a
particularly abstruse case came up, the
professor would gather inspiration from
that photograph, or perhaps he would turn
it over and read the rather tender inscriD-
ton on the back. But he Doesn't do it anv
more. That photograph disappeared from
his desk on the day that he learned THAT il
takes more than common sense to manage
woman.
The woman in the case was Aurelia Dele
hanty, sometimes called Madame Belmont
and still further known as Aurela Mans
field She lives in Fourteenth street, near
Prof. Abdullah. One day she called on
him for advice.

dullah. If I could tell fortunes and fore

But I thought you gave people ad-

pointment visible in her face

I can't tell fortunes, perhaps I can do
some other things that will interest you
For instance, I can tell that your watch,
which is not visible to me, has stopped at

card, and that you have come here to
consult me about some lost money, and"
Gracious heavens,' cried the caller:
'how did you know all those things? You
must be a magician"
Merely trick, madam: merely a
trick. Now state your business"
Mrs. Delehanty-that was the name
she gave to the professor-said that she
had been sWindled out of SCI by for
tune teller called Nine. Alice who had
got her money and told her nothing.
Abdullah told her that he would look
into the case. He saw Nine Alice had a
brief but spirited interview with her. and
got back the $751; which he gave to Mrs.
Delehanty, getting receipt for it from
her. shortly after she came to him to
find out how he had been able to tell
her about the watch and the card and
other things.

PICKASINNY AND GOVERNOR.
The Persistence OF Little Negro Girl
Secures Her Mothers Pardon.


Frankfort, Dec. 24-The governor gave
two Christmas gifts to-day and they car
ried with them probably more real pleas
IRE than any two other presents from anv
other source in this state Both were
pardons. The first was to Thomas f.
johnson of the Eddyville prison, who had
nearly served out long sentence, who
was dying Of consumption, and who was
allowed to return to his old home in Leslie
county, there to spend his last days with
his family.
About the other Christmas eve pardon
there was a strange mixture of the hum
orous and pathetic. Emma Jones, a ne
gro woman from Louisville, mas been in
the penitentiary here, serving out the last
year of a sentence for grand larceny.
There was nothing particular about her
case TO excite executive clemency, and
she certainly had fewer friends than
some Of those unfortunates who have
the whole year brought powerful inf1u-
ences to bear upon the executive without
effect. About four months ago a little
blackfaced and white-eyed negro child
called and asked to see the governor
She was given an audience, and in an
almost silly way pleaded 10 the "guv'ner''
that he let her nanny out The gov
ernor got rid Of her as kindly as possible
told the boys" not to let her bother. him
any more, and she left. but only for that
day. Nearly every day since she has
slipped into the outer office of the execu-
tive office, and has, unbidden taken a
seat and said nothing. The governor.
passing in and out of his office. would
frequently see her. and, half amused and
half annoyed, would tell her to run awav
that he could do nothing for her. She
never spoke to any one unless the execu-
tive would ask. You here again? What
do you want?" Then her little black face
would pinch up as with pain, her white
eyes would so 70 swimming, and she
would say: Il want you to let my MAN.
my 60"
Yesterday forenoon the governor start
ed from his office across to that of the
secretary of state. In the outer room
there arose in his path again the little
negro girl. As he looked down at her the
child's eyes filled with tears, she stood
and gaZed at the governor, and the gov
ernor stood and looked at her As he did
so something suspiciously like the same
kind of moisture came in his eye. Final
~ he said; Pm going to give you a
Christmas gift; I'm going TO let you take
your nanny home with you" He or
dered pardon made out for Emma Jones
The little girl was allowed to go with
Ellis Headley, who bore the official docu-
ment to the penitenuary. The scene there
was very pathetic. Some of the guard
and officials who saw it laughed-but
some of their smiles came through tears

The Famous Cliff Houss.
From The Springfield Republican


The news that the famous Cliff House
at San Francisco has been destroyed by
fire viii bring a paug Of regret to every
body who has ever visited that fascinat-
ing city by the Golden Gate. A drive TO
the Clin House has been one of the chief
entertainments both for residents and Wis
itors for many, many years A magnificent
view OF the Golden Gate and the Pacific
ocean were to be had from its broad piaz-
zas, with the entertaining spectacle Of a
lot OF slippery seals necessarily climbing
over the rocks in the immediate fore
ground; while the food and drink secured
within doors or in the open air if You
liked. We're Of excellent quality, at least
in the old days. Il was near the CHR
house that Rslston, the renowned Califor-
MIA banker and general boomer Of TWEEN
ty-five years ago walked into the surf one
morning, when his star was declining and
never came out alive. Other famous peo-
pie have been associated with the place
in various ways. \ new and grand struct-
ure of steel and stone is now to take the
place Of the old house.

ICEBERCS GIVE WARNING.
The Propeller of Steamers Said to Give
the Indication.
From the Washington Star.

From the Washington Star.
The captain of an ocean steamer in
most cases finds out when his vessel is
approaching an iceberg from the men
down in the engine room" said T. V.
Dorsey of Brooklyn at the Arlington re-
Gently. That sounds queer but it is a
fact, nevertheless. 1t appears that when
a steamship enters water considerably
colder than that through which it has
been going. its propeller runs faster Such
water usually surrounds the vicinage Of
bergs for many miles. When the propei-
ler's action, therefore, is accelerated
without the steam power being increased,
word is passed up TO the officer on the
bridge that bergs may be expected, and
a close lookout for them is established. I
don't know anything about the natural
reasons for the propeller acting in the
way l have described. but sea captains
will tell you the same thing."

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

The brilliantly illuminated Grand
opera house was packed to the doors
last night, and at 7:40 the standing
room only" sign was displayed. Frank
Bush and his excellent company was
the attraction. Mr.. Bush is seen in a
many-sided role for a many-sided COM
edian, and the hearty applause bestow-
ed by the audience clearly shows that
his efforts are thoroughly appreciated.
First appearing as disengaged actor,
with no money but much NERVE" he
speedily transforms himself into raw
Yankee "Rube," then into a tough boy,
then into German girl, next into a
Hebrew, then into an 1rishman, and
finally into popular comic opera prirna
donna. The situations in which he fig
ures in these different guises are of the
most laughable description. The other
characters involved in them are all ex-
ceedfngly funny. The epecialties given
by Mr.. Bush and the other clever people
in the company are of the most refresh
ing quality A New York fiat building
provides the three different scenes of
action.
The matinee yesterday was largely
attended, the majority being chiefly Ia
dies and children, who seem to look for
ward to the performances at the Grand
opera house as part of their weekly en-
gagements.
There will be a matinee to-day. Prices
10 cents, 20 cents and rs cents. The
engagement closes with this evening s
performance.
The highly popular melodrama "The
Land of the Living" which comes to
the Grand the last three days of this
week, comes to America with record
of 300 nights at the Adelphi theater

would indicate it is quite up to the Har-
vey standard. The scenes are said to
be original The action of the play
takes place in London and in the dia-
mond mines of Africa. The scenery (o1

THE THIRTY YEARS TRADITION.
The Death of Mt. O'Nei1l and Defeat Of
Mr.. Holman Saved the Record.

The Death of Mt. O'Neill and Defeat Of
Mr.. Holman Saved the Record.
TWAS fate which defeated Represent
alive Holman. The venerable Indianian
essayed to do what no one before him
had accomplished. The tradition that
limits service in the house of represent
atives to 80 years will receive increased
respect from Mr.. Holman's defeat. At
the beginning of the present congress
Mr.. Holman and Mr.. O'Neill of Phila-
delphia had q conversation about this
tradition. Mr.. O'Nelil asked Mr.. Hol-
man what he thought of it. Mr.. Hell
man smiled at the man who was STA
ther of the house" and told him hawas
all right for half dozen terms. Mr..
O'Neill shook his head and reminded
Mr. Holman of the fate that had over
taken Kelley, Randall and others just
when it seemed that they were sure to
break tho record. Mr.. Holman afterward
told Of this conversation and added:
81 guess O'Neill will break the record.
He is strong and hearty"
Before the year was out Mr.. O'Neill
was dead, and the tradition had received
one more proof of its weird power. Mr..
Holman then became father of the
house" Had he been elected this time
he would have exceeded the traditional
80 years limit as soon as he passed the
Sd of next March. But he was defeated.
1t will be long time before the ira
dition will be tested again. With Mr..
Holman the last of the members nearing
the limit disappears Mr.. Bland goes
out of congress with 20 years to his
credit. Mr.. Cannon of Illinois and Mr..
Culberson of Texas will have served 90
years each on the Sd of next March. -
