The Letters of Ernsmna.

The letters of Erasmus are a rich mine full of materials for a study of the sixteenth century, in many respects and not only in it's religious controver- sies. We have an insight into courtly social and literary life. The paid tutor in the princes house has now become a regular institution. We see the value of a dedication to a wealthy patron. We have vivid picture oT what trav- cling must have been, the difficulty of procuring carriages, the slow pace by horseback, the wretched taverns
 How we pity poor Erasmus in that journey from Basic to Louvain with his frail constitution, arriving at Ak after a fearful shaking on bad roads, and being regaled with cold carp by the precentor, and next day at the vice provost's, with nothing but eels and "bacalao" salt cod almost raw!

Nervous exhaustion in children is worrying a great many fathers and mothers these days.
 While the hurry and bustle of modern life is bringing a, constantly lncreas- ing strain upon grown men and women, there certainly comes to light the start ling fact of a growing tendency toward nervousness among their children.
 As these boys and girls, when older, will enter a life of nervous strain fully as exacting as that of to-day, 1t is no wonder that parents view with dismay these early signs of nervous weakness, and anxiously seek some means of mak- ing the young people strong and well again. The remedy is at hand in every city and town in America.
 It is the remedy first prescribed by that greatest of all modern educators, Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LID, of Dartmouth college. It is Paine's eel cry compound which Principal Camp of New Haven and President Cook of the National Teachers association have so recently recommended.
 Countless parents to-day give their children Paine's celery compound and see them grow robust and vigorous day by day before their eyes till they are again restored to the perfect health that belongs to youth. Physicians everywhere advise the use of this great est of blood purifiers and nerve foods.
 One of the danger signals of nervous exhaustion among young people Is the lack of desire for food and the capri ciousness of. appetite. When their over- pressed nervous systems have been driven to the point of exhaustion, their faces grow pale and pinched, their spir- its decline, their bodies lose percepti- bly, in weight and strength, they need more and more some active means of

supplying the nerves and tissues with i better nutrition, and the veins with bet ter blood When Paine's celery com pound is given to one of these excita- ble, weak-nerved, sallow, perhaps scrof- ulous young persons, the mother is of- ten amazed at the rapidity with which it restores the strength, builds up the worn nervous tissues and replaces the languor of a depleted nervous system by the elasticity of youthful health.
 Paine's celery compound makes peo- pie well,-not only worn out, enfeebled men and women of mature age, but young persons whose slighter powers have been overtaxed by excitement or immoderate work without proper in- tervals for rest and repair.
 Paine's celery compound has played a most important part in the lives of thousands of young people in every sec ton of this country. Many whose ner- vous systems had been so stimulated as to unfit them utterly for study it has made vigorous and strong enough to ably bear the burden of coming years. It has enabled them to grow up vigor ous men and women, capable of doing the part of active, strong men and wo- men in the world. MT. James B. Wet gel, writing from his home in New Berlin, Penn., says
 Allow me to speak a few words in praise of Paine's celery compound. My younger sister, whose picture. I send you, was subject to nervous attacks, and, we thought, to heart trouble. We tried numerous medicines for her ail- ments but without much avail. Last winter she had a severe attack of ner- vous trouble with her eyes. and we gave her Paine's celery compound, and she improved wonderfully upon it, and she has been we'll ever since If these few words of unsolicited testimony can be of any benefit, please use them as my unbiased and unprejudiced opinion"

HER BoDY FOUND IN THE RrHER.

| Mrs. Hubert Todd While in an Insane Con dition wanders From Her House and is Drowned in the Quinnipiac.
 The body of Mrs. Hubert W. Todd of 1s2 Grand avenue was found in the Quinnipiac river, near South Front street, and about twenty-five rods from the Camargo bridge about 9 o'clock yes terday morning by J. N. Bradley of 262 Quinnipiac street.
 Mrs. Todd had been i'll for a num- Der of months with nervous prostra- tion and a short time ago 8 surgical operation was performed by Dr. C. B. Adams. Since that time trained nurse, Miss Adella Burr, had been in constant attendance upon Mrs. Todd. The cause of Mrs. Todd's illness was worry over the death of her daughter. Her daughter, aged about twenty years, died some time ago and Mrs. Todd had always taken the daughters loss to heart Frequently while in a delirious condition she had said she wished she were dead.
 She arose from her bed yesterday morning while her. nurse was asleep and escaped from the house, having on only her night dress and a water proof, with rubber cap on her head and stockings and rubbers on her feet. It is thought that she went to the Fair Haven cemetery, where her daughter is buried and finding the gate locked wandered from there to the banks of the Quinnipiac river, into which she fell and was drowned. She must have escaped from the house sometime be- tween 3 o'clock and 6 o'clock in the morning, during which time Miss Burr was asleep.
 When the body was discovered Med ical Examiner White was notified and viewed the remains, which he gave permission to remove They were taken in charge by H. w. Crawford & Co and taken back to the woman's home.
 Mrs, Todd was fifty years of age and she and her husband, with her mother, constituted the family. Mr Todd for merly conducted the old rink on Grand avenue.
 The deceased was the daughter of John A. Dibble, who left her consider able property,
 Medical Examiner White rendered a report showing that death came by drowning while the deceased was labor ing under alteration of mind.

THE LEXOW POLICE BILLS.
The Platt Men Are Again Too Weak te
 Pass Them.

EABS IneIns
 New York, April 3.--An Albany spe- cial to the Evening Post says: When the senate began business to-day the Platt men got together and made a nasty count of their forces. The re- suit was disheartening. There were three absentees among the republi- cans Wolfert of Kings, Coggeshall of Oneida, and Robertson of Westchester, the last having been ordered home by his physician. This reduced the repub- licans to sixteen, or one less than the number needed to pass any bill, pro- vided all the republicans voted for the measure.
 'It's useless to try to pass the Lexow police bills to-day said Senator Raines, rep, of Ontario, after he co1nprehended the situation. This was the sentiment of all the Platt senators, and 1t was confirmed by the announcement of Lieutenant Governor Saxton that Sena- tor Robertson had gone home very ill. It was agreed, however, to let Senator Stapleton, rep, of Onondaga, offer his amendments to the Lexow bills and to reject them after they had been dis cussed, while it was determined to postpone a vote on the measures until some more auspicous occasion. Even the most sanguine among the Platt men are unable to see their way out of the present situation.
 It was almost noon when Senator Stapleton called up the bipartisan com mission bill on the order of third read ing, and proposed the amendment mak- ing all appointments to the force sub ject to local civil service regulations. Senator Raines took the floor at once, and proceeded to read a long typewrit- ten speech against the amendment and in laudation of the Lexow bills. A significant part of his remarks was his open bid for democratic votes to enable the Platt crowd to pass the measures, notwithstanding the detection of the anti-machtne republican senators.
 The assembly cities committee is to give a hearing tomorrow afternoon on the Lexow police bills.
 At 2:40 o'clock a vote was taken on the Stapleton amendment and it was rejected 25 to 2-Stapleton and Lamy. The bipartisan bill was then laid aside
