THE DAINTY EATER.
A Graceful Weman Looks Well Even
When She Feeds.

How woman appears when she eats
depends on how you feel at the time of
your observation. If a man wants to see
a woman in the most favorable light dur
ing tbs ceremony, let him be as hungry
as she is when he sits down in front of
her, and let him, like the sympathetic
person, relish his own dinner from the
palate of his friend without time or dis
position to criticize.
But to come. to the point of the Pc
culiarit,es CT the sex in eating, I ave
found time to observe this:: Generally
speaking, a woman is more delicate and
fastidious in eating han in anything else.
she picks and chooses. because from her
experience in most cases she has pre-
pared enough dishes to know and appre-
ciate the best bits-a distinction which
the French would signify by the words
bon gout'' so that the function of eating
may become one of the fine arts. not
beneath the notice of a woman who aims
to be of good culture. And If she does
not appear graceful, / commend it to my
sisters as a matter which needs special
attention.
OF the ill-bred women I have only to
that she is essentially disagreeable
in eating as in everything else.
But the truly graceful woman may be
attractive and interesting, even in the
exercises Of the table.-Chicago Tribune.

JASPER SMITH ESCAPES.
Charges Against Him Were Nolle
ProsacG.

Jasper Smith, a g~ood-looking young
man well known in the Greenville sec
ton, was arraigned in the General Ses-
'sions Court this morning upon charges
of abduction and larceny. Both ecusa
tons were made by Mrs, Freligh of Ar
lington avenue. whose sixteen-year-old
daughter Lizzie she accused Smith of
abducting. He was alec charged with
stealing a garnet ring valued at 500 from
Lizzie. The charges were made last No
vember and Smith was arrested in New
Haven, Conn.
The garnet ring was a present to Lizzie
from Charles c.. Buckley, a real estate
dealer, who was her sweetheart until
Smith won her. but when Smith was
brought back to the State and was held
for trial, Buckley went ball for him in
S., 900. Then Smith married Lizzie and
Mrs. Freligh decided to withdraw the
charge OF larceny. When Smith was
called for trial on March II last, he did
not appear. Buckley then engaged De-
tective Doyle, who watched young Mrs.
Smith. In a few days she left for Buff
falo, and Doyle followed her. On Satur-
day night he returned with Smith and his
wife. Smith was locked up.
The case was nolle pressed in court
this morning on the ground that a wife
cannot testify against her husband. The
charge of larceny was dismissed upon
the payment of costs, amounting to

STEVENS LACROSSE TEAM.

Judging from the preliminary practice
of the Stevens Institute Lacrosse Team,

CALIFORNIA BEATEN.

WASHINGTON, March IS. 1S95.-The
Supreme Court Of the United States to-
day. in an opinion read by Chief Justice
Fuller. dismissed the bill of the State
of California against the Central Pacific
Railroad Company. involving the posses
sion and control OF the water front of
the City Of Oakland. for the reason that
1t was not a ease in which the Court
had original Jurisdiction.
The City of Oakland and the Oakland
Water Front Company. said the Chief
Justice. were so situated. not being par
ties to the suit, that the Supreme Court
of the United States ought not to pro-
coed in their absence. But, ever If there
were present and included within the
scope of the litigation, he said, the
Court could not exercise original juris-
diction. and the bill was therefore dis
missed.
The effect of this decision. is that the
State must renew its litigation de novo In
another tribunal, Of which the Supreme
Court of the United States has appellate
jurisdiction.
Mr.. Justice Harlan read a dissenting
opinion. in which he was Joined by Jus
tice Brewer. He said that if the Supreme
Court of he United States would not
exercise ITS original jurisdiction in this
case. it was difficult to see where it
would DO so.
Mr.. Justice Field read a brief state
ment expressing his regret hat the con-
troversy between the State and the
Railroad Company. owing to the limited
Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the
United States could not now be heard
