QU1NoY,, Ill., Dec. a6.--A few days
ago Professor Charles Orchardson was
in possession Of an estate worth over
$65, 900. To-day he is practically
flat broke. Saturday a jury in the
Circuit court set aside the will Of the
late Minerva. Merrick Orcharson. which,
left to him her estate, valued at the
figure given, and to-day Judge Bonney
set aside the marriage on the grounds
that Orchardson had induced Mrs.
Merrick to marry him through the aid
OF fraudulent spiritualistic seance.
This leaves Orchardson without a
claim of any kind on the estate, which
will be divided among the heirs of the
late Minerva Merric1.

Mark Your Wheel.

John d. Carroll, chief detective of a
wheelman's insurance company, said
recently: Every owner should have a
private mark upon his or her wheel
By this don't mean simple mark
upon the saddle post or on the saddle it
self, as those are the very places where
thief will look for such a mark, and
should they be there both saddle and
post will be removed. If you want to
make the private mark on any part of
your frame, say on the underside of the
top tube, turn your wheel upside down
and remove portion of the enamel, say
inch by inch, and clean we'll till the
metal is freed from any part Of the en-
amel. Then cover the space so cleaned
with greasy material-candle grease,
for instance-then take pointed instru-
ment of some kind and wet the point
with carbolic acid. Proceed to write
your initials or private mark on the
tubing, being sure that you have suffi-
cient acid OH the pointed pen before
you begin. After allowing the acid to
leave its trace OH the tubing, you can
rub off the grease, and one application
of enamel will cover all trace of the
mark you have made. "-Philadelphia

she Considered the Lily.

AT teachers convention in Detroit
lady, speaking about the influence Of
beautiful objects upon the character and
conduct of young pupils, told pretty
story received by her from an eyewit-
ness
Into school made up chiefly Of
children from the slums the teacher one
day carried a beautiful Gala lily. OF
course the children gathered about the
pure, waxy blossom in great delight.
lone of them was little girl, waif
OF the streets. who had no care bestowed
upon her, az was evinced by the dirty
ragged condition she was always in.
Not only was her clothing dreadfully
soiled, but her face and hands seemed
totally unacquainted with soap and wa
ter
"As this little one drew near the
lovely flower, she suddenly turned and
ran away down stairs and out Of the
building. In a few minutes she returned
with her hands washed perfectly clean,
and pushed her way up to the flower,
where she stood and admired it with in
tense satisfaction.
1T would seem," continued Miss
Coffin, that when the child saw the
lily in its white purity, she suddenly
realized that she was not fit to come
into its atmosphere, and the little thing
fed away to make herself suitable for
such companionship Did not this have
an elevating refining effect on the child?

the schoolroom. New York Tri he.
