--s------------------'---r------ The Heroes of Chnroneia.

The bed of the grave was evidently laid in what had been the bed of a riv- ulet snoothed by removing some of the larger rocks, and on that bed and with i'm these walls the bodies were laid like sardines in a box, and when the space was covefad some eight or twelve inch es of earth was put over them and a second layer of dead bodies carefully de- posted. There were about one hundred and twenty-five bodies in each layer, and in one of the corners a pile of ashes was found, evidently the ashes of those who had only succumbed to their wounds after some time, and had thus found later burial. No fewer than two hundred and fifty-four warriors had slept in this grave at Charoneia for more than two thousand years. Had Greek literature taught us nothing of the reverence with which the Greeks treated burial, we should have realized their feeling from this example, for each body was laid with such care that it needed but slight effort of imagina- ton to reclothe the skeleton afresh and
 
 lived. The little bone ornaments with a hole in the center. a rosary of rings, lay round each neck, the flesh of which was now clay indistinguishable from the surrounding earth.
 The very bones testified to the desper- ate courage with which each man had defended his beloved fatherland Here was one with three ribs broken in front by a spear-thrust, and his right thigh, too, was fractured just above the knee, There lay another, whose left arm and collar-bone were broken, and the right side of his head brushed in, evidently by some furious blow. Scarcely a sim gle skeleton but had the marks upon 1t of more than one mortal wound and the vast majority of the injuries were due to spear and lance thrusts. There they lay, now quiet enough, nearly three hundred of them, mutely testify ing to their own courage and to the power exerted by that ancient religion of patriotism. They must nearly all have been young men; skull after skull was examined, and the teeth were al- ways found to be perfect, as teeth rare ly are perfect after five and twenty.-- London Saturday Review,

4 CAMPAIGN TOPIC.

Spring Is here, not bolsterously ex-
 u'berant, little backward, but it Is
 here and what there is of 1t is sincerely
 welcomed. The winter of our discon-
 tent is past. Robust and vigorous win
 ter fingered, but has gone. And now
 the woman's fancy lightly turns to
 things of dirt and with the sweeping.
 dusting and general overturning comes
 train of woes which is inseparable from the vernal season. Woman reigns
 from cellar to attic, and man is sub dued. But man has still various things to distract his attention from the domes-
 tic upheaval. And one great and al-
 legged burning question is being pre- cipftated upon an unoffending public
 and upon the nation. This Is the
 money question, question: which bids fair to arouse to action and fierce dis litical bodies and curbstone orators of
 the land. One wing of the democratic
 party through MT. Cleveland proclaims
 itself for the gold standard and promi-
 nent Connecticut democrats from one
 end of the state to the other are asked
 to show their hands and where they stand in the matter As usual the
 democratic party is a little behind in
 the procession, but the action of its
 chief in this respect is commendable
 and Is an endorsement though tardy
 of the sound money record of the re- publican party, the party that has
 carried the finances of the country
 along so ably, and famously. But walls come from western democrats and more
 walls from southern democrats who don't like MT. Cleveland's pronun- ciamento. "Where are we at" shout the democratic opponents. There is trouble ahead in the democratic camp and councils The Cleveland utter ances on the currency question, more over, may divide the party and hope less disagreement is imminent. Tariff reform was the alleged watchword of that party in the last national cam paign, but where was more hopeless confusion and division in a party shown than was displayed on this very sub ject by the last democratic congress. It is well to wait and see, men and brethren, Surely it is a pleasant thing to see brethren dwelling together in unity, but alas, this is not apt to be the case with our democratic states men. Better tie up to the grand old republican party and have done with if

The popular bag front to bodices is frequently made the concentration of all elaboration in a costume. Very of ten this yard of material is richly en- crusted with all manner of beads, ov- er-wrought with spangles, and inter- larded with iniaying of gold metal de- signs, and 1t is decreed that the color ig in front shall so harmonize with the rest of the costume that no one may accuse the wearer of having one front that goes with everything. These ov- erhanging fronts are so numerous, and their effect is attained in so many tasteful ways, that designers Of blouses that do not droop to hide the belt in front are obliged to accomplish some thing very novel if they are to succeed at all.

- NO REDRESS.

The Massachusetts legislature is
 wrestling with a bill prohibiting the in
 surance of the lives of children under ten years of age. Much opposition to
 the measure is developed, as the inter
 ests involved are powerful, and the plea is made that If Massachusetts rules out
 this class of insurance, other States will
 be aroused to take like action. The figures show that the cost to the insured
 in carrying infant insurance, so-called,
 is very heavy, and that savings banks
 would give a better return. But it is popular and the questions involved are
 exciting no little interest among the
 Bay State legislators. And talking
 about life insurance, an exciting trial
 has just occurred in New York State,
 which, though case of adult life in-
 surance, has an indirect bearing upon
 one phase of the inquiry referred to in
 the foregoing. A young woman named
 Catharine Nolan has just been acquit-
 ted of a charge of murder by a jury in
 Saratoga county, the jury acquitting
 her in four minutes after the trial clos ed; and, in fact, so manifest was the injustice done the woman that the jury had their minds made up to acquit her when the prosecution rested its side of the case. The "case' agaInst her, which was brought to the length of a trial and verdict, was simply that her brother had died, having insured his life for her benefit and that of her sister. As the trial advanced there was seen to be no other basis for the prosecution than these facts. Although it was protracted for a week, the jury took only a few minutes to bring in verdict of acquit-' tai, which was received with enthusi- asm. After the verdict the other sister who had been indicted for the same l crime, and against whom, presumably, 1 the want of evidence was the same, was from custody. The jury, the 1 judge and the bystanders contributed to | a collection for the support of the girls | unjustly accused.
 The accused parties were vindicated ! but there seems to be no redress what | ever for them, for both had been inn | mured in prison for ten weary months while they were awaiting trial, with all | the anxiety, mental strain, indignity | and privation that imprisonment upon charge of a heinous crime implies.

Concerning Rev. Dr. Newman Hall, whose visit to New Haven about thirty years ago, as many will remember, created immense interest in town, the old Chapel street church where he preached and gave Bible talks, having been crowded to the doors at each ser vice, yesterdays New York Tribune says: Though he is now more than seventy-fve years of age, the Rev. Dr. preacher of England, stands erect in magnificent strength, nearly six feet tn height; he has the muscle and en- duranee of an athlete-can climb a mountain like member of the "Alpine on Sunday to and from his church, He has the element of humor in him, can enjoy a. merry romp with children, and brims over with life in every direction" The same paper notes among its per sonal items of special prominence the fact of the retirement from the active work of the ministry of our much es- teemed scholarly and eloquent pr, liar wood, ''who has been for so many years the popular and honored rector of Trin- ity Episcopal church, New Haven, Coun,"

And now comes Prof. T. c. Alibut with the claim contrary to the general opinion on the subject, that nervous diseases are not more common now than formerly, and he challenges the statistics which seem to show an in crease of insanity. It is always safe to challenge statistics. As for ner- vousness, those who have looked into the subject say that men become ner- vous by using their nerves just as they become muscular by using their mus c1es. The use of the nervous system increases its delicacy and sensitiveness, and if after becoming thus delicate and sensitive as an organ of the work ing intellect it, is abused, it's disorgani- Eation is rapid in proportion to its sem sitiveness.

made melton cape for general street
 wear, and also little black silk cape reaching to the shoulders only and lined with some brilliant satin, for us- ual and general "nice" wear, but be- side this each cloth gown must have its own cape, and never were cloth gowns so much in vogue. Never was so much ornamen'tation and elegance put on to cloth rigs. Never was it positively necessary to have so many changes in cloth, and at the same time, never was it so imperative that each gown should support its own wrap. This all means an expenditure for spring dresses that will finger in it's effect on lean purses till summer is well advenced. Keepers of summer hotels should tremble at this intelligence, for women must have new gowns, whether they get away to the resorts or not. FLORETTE.

The Boston Herald remarks regard Ing the big falling off in earnings of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy rail- road: "The statement of earnings for the year just made will provoke fresh discussion of the dividend question, and the chances of a further reduc- tion or total passing will be canvassed. The testimony of the quarterly exhibit upon this question is emphatically against further dividends until they have been earned, but this testimony is not conclusive, since the management has adopted the policy of arbitrary payments independent of current reve- nues, and it is beyond saying when this policy will be abandoned in favor of something more sound and logical. It takes $S20,00O to pay the dividend de- clared within the quarter in review. To this add the deficit in earning charges, $260,000 and the showing is $1,0S0,O00 to the bad. Or drop the divi- dend entirely and add the quarters deficit to last years surplus in like months $492,000, and the relative de- terioration of Income is S752, ,O0O. Either showing is most unfavorable, and the unfortunate character is emphasized by the reflection that bad as it is it has only been attained by questionable economies in operating"

Screens In China.

Screens arc to be seen everywhere in the Dragon Empire. They are carved of teak wood and handsomely painted with vari- ous figures and devices. In some parts of China bodsteads similar to our own are used. They are curiousiy carved, with drawers underneath and shelves for hold ing toilet necessities, all of which are hid den out of sight by drawers which look like beautiful screen.
 The rooms in the different suits of apartments are separated one from an- other by the carved wooden scroll work for which the Chinese aro famous. It is usually dark and gives a very rich and handsome appearance to the whole in- terior, which is dull and dark-owing to the want of windows-until the nyriads of lanterns arc lighted. The carving is sometimes. gilded, and sometimes the wood is left in state of nature with a high polish. Doorways are often half filled in with it. Again, low, deep frieze is seen all around the room. The womens apartments particularly are decorated with the carved work. What ever can be imagined as contributing to pleasure and tho support of luxury is to be found in the secluded quarters devoted to the woInen.-Philadelph Times.
