A remarkable trial has just ended at
Bucharest, Hungary. Two boys, one
six years and the other fourteen, were
charged upon their own confession
with attempting to drown q child two
years old. Their defense was that the
long drought had to be terminated,
-ui thar IT, ori,ao for which shey
were on trial was the only successful
method known to accomplish the end.
An explanation Of this curious defense
is that the children Of the villages in
times of great drought are made to
throw the clay figure of a child into
the water. The boys threw in the
child merely because they had no clay
figure. The elder was sentenced to
two years imprisonment and the
younger returned to his mother for
chastisement.

In his speech in the United States
Senate, at the acceptance of the Web
ster statue, Senator Morrill,, of Yer.
mont, spoke of the fashionable garb
worn by 'Black Dan" when he dined
with him in Washington in 1852.
''Mr. Webster" said the Senator,
s'appeared in his blue coat With gilt
buttons, light buff vest, low shoes and
white silk half-hose, and led the con-
versation most happily, whether
grave or gay" This was the custom
of the great American statesman lit
tie more than forty years ago,
period which can be recalled by hum
dreds of thousands Of our living citi-
zens. What would be thought of any
man, even Webster, who should up
pear thus dressed in our time? Would
ho not be IN object Of ridicule? asks
inc San francisco .argonau5. The
clothes of the American people have
been getting palmer and duiier right
straight along for over hundred
years. Look at the costumes of
Washington, Adams. and the other
great men after peace had been won
through the Revolution. Look at the
rich and gay dress which was worn by
men who could afford it when our
own immediate sires trod the land.
Then look a tho black and white
dress of fashion in the banquet hal
in this unpicturesque and clustering
age. It is lovely woman alone who
dares to make a display of cologs
frills, flowers, fringes, spangles
jewelry and ornaments at this disma
time.

in tho bone was found the fragment
