MAIDEN, Mass, Aug. 26.-Daniel j.
Mcleod, a Melrose carpenter, attempted
to kill his divorced wife, Mary Mcleod,
on Washington street. Oak Grove, and
afterwards shot himself through the head,

Yesterday he met her and renewed his re-
quest, and when she refused he fired two

Coroa's First Postage Stamps.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26 "A document
which was received at the state department
from Minister Sill, at Seoul, Corea, en-
closes four new postage stamps, the first
issued by Corea for domestic purposes.
The stamps are in bright colors and carry,
besides their English lettering giving
their denomination, several Corean char
acters, which presumably convey the same
information to the natives. The stamps
were manufactured in Washington. They
range in value from one cent, or FIVE
poons, to ten cents.

The Mother Instinct Is Strong In tho Fs-

Female balloons, in default of live
pets, will carry around rag babies or
sit for hours in q corner, trying all
sorts of caresses to overcome the
apathy Of doll. Orphans of other
monkeys, or, indeed, of any mammals
of a manageable size, are almost torn
to pieces in the ardor of competition
on being introduced to a colony OF
childless balloons. The naturalist,
Brehm. mentions a pet mandrill that
was so fond of young animals that
he often took upon himself the occu-
patton OF nurse, whether the mothers
liked il or the little ones cared for it
or not. Thus, on once going through
the streets of a town, seated on bag
gage wagon, he was tied fast by
good, long cord that gave him much
liberty. Seeing BIZ the side of the
road a dog with a couple Of pup
pies, he Immediately leaped down,
caught up one of them and was return

from the shock produced by his audac-
ity. She rushed after him as he re-
treated with the little puppy clasped
10 his bosom with one of his arms, and
so vigorously did she pursue that the
kidnapper was placed in difficulty, and
had TO exercise al his resources TO get

at its fullest length. when he suddenly
