A meeting Of the populist "push''
of the state has been called for
Huron, Jan. 1st and End for the al
legged purpose of mapping out a
course and adjusting the Senatorial
fight. In other words, it will be a
caucus Of the leaders of the party.
This action bears a decided resem-
blance to the republican gathering
at the same place two years ago
when Pettigrew was made the choice
for Senator and all the Legislative
holes were supplied with pegs before
the meeting of the Legislature. tits

much trouble is sown for their party
by this caucus as was for the republi-
cans they will realize fully what is
meant by Pettigrewism.

Legislative seats that they have been
dropped with a suddenhess that is

Of purity. They have evidently come
to the conclusion that it wouldn't do

ground in the charge they were
making against the republicans.

Ills Science Was a Little OF.

One night young man in Divinity
Hall at Yale undertook, with a toy
rifle, to hit lamp. But his aim was
poor, and the ball passed through the
window of an eminent and venerable
professor of science and imbedded itself
In the wall. This was the opportunity
for the professor and for science. He,
too, set to work and computed the
curve. and with the exact skill OF in
fallible figures he traced the ball right
back to the room of an innocent col
league, who didn't even know the rifle
had been fired. The unfledged minis
ter fatty denied all knowledge of the
affair. But men, even ministers, have
been known to make denials in self
defense, and the professor had the
proof with him. There was the bull
let, there were the marks Of its course
and there was the computation work.
ed out. 1t looked as II pulpit career
was to be nipped in the bud. But the
guilty student heard what was going
on. He called on the professor, con-
fessed the offense, pointed out that the
man OF science was 200 feet out in his
computation, and advised that the mat
ter be dropped right where 1t was. And
that was done.-Hartford Courant.

Jacob sought for her for weeks and

her TO give up the life she had started
and fulfill the promise OF marriage TO
him, but she laughed at him, saying
she preferred the life she was leading.
Jacob worried so much over the loss OF
Annie that his mind became unbal-
anced. He again sought the woman he
loved and told her that he would kill
her II she did not live with him. She
again refused him, and her new lover
threw him out of the fiat. Returning
he made a murderous attack upon An

An Optical PseaIiArItx.

The eye Is the most movable organ
in the face; yet IL you hold your head
fixed and try TO move your eyes while
watching their reflection in the mirror
you cannot do it-even TO the extent
OF one-thousandth OF an inch. OF
course. II you look at the reflection Of
the nose or any other part OF your face
your eye must move to see 1t. But the
strange thing is that the moment you
endeavor to perceive the motion the eye
is fixed. This is one OF the reasons
why a persons expression. as seen by
himself in a glass, is quite different
from what It is when seen by others.

when. in some manner yet unexplained,
instead OF harmless blow being de-
liyered. the dagger penetrated Crozier's
breast. inflicting a wound which caused
his death in few minutes. Consterna-

summoned, but death had occurred be-

not aware of the terrible mistake that
had been made. and Crozier's realistic
fan was greeted with applause.

LAST ACTOR NAPOLEON.
Appealed to the ChivaIry OF the National
Guard aud Was Not DisappoipteJ

Guard and Was Not disappointed.
From the Century Magazine: Next
day Napoleon performed his last Off
cial act. which was one of great cour-
age, both physical and moral. The ma
tional guard in Paris had been reorgan.
lied, but its officers had never been
thoroughly loyal to the empire. many
of them being royalists, and some radi-
cal republicans. Their disaffection had
been heightened by recent events, but
they were nevertheless summoned to
the Tuileries; the risk was doubled by
the fact that they came armed. Drawn
up in the great chamber known as that
OF the marshals. they stood expectant;
the great doors were thrown open, and
there entered the emperor, accompan-
led only by his consort and their child
in the arms of his governess, Nine. De
Montesquieu. Napoleon announced
simply that he was about to put himself
at the head of his army, hoping by the
aid of God and the valor OF his troops
to drive the enemy beyond the from
tiers. There was silence. Then, TAX
ing in one hand that of the empress
and leading forward his child by the
other, he continued: II intrust the
empress and the king of Rome to the
courage of the national guard. Still
silence. After a moment, with sup
pressed emotion. he concluded, MY
wife and my SON." No generous-heart-
ed Frenchman could withstand such
an appeal; breaking ranks by spon-
taneous impulse. the officers started
forward in mass and shook the very
walls with their cry, Long live the
emperor" Many shed tears as they
withdrew in respectful silence, and
that night, on the eve Of his departure.
the emperor received a numerously
signed address from the very men
whose loyalty he had hitherto had just
reason TO suspect.

anything of Importance. The clue
which is still to be followed Is, 1t is be-
iieyed, the most important of all, and.
In it's investigation romance of the
lie OF Annie has been unearthed. This
clue has been very secretly worked by
the police, and many facts have been
gathered which point in the direction
OF the probable assassin. The story
starts SIX years ago, when Annie came
TO this country from Russia with sew
eral other. members Of her family. She
was then 10 years old, and her pictures
showed that she was plump, and pref
~, and are in marked contrast to the
1aded and frail creature whose body,
wrecked by dissipation, was laid away
IN Mt. Washington cemetery one day
last week. On the steamer in which
Annie came to this country was a
young man named Jacob Franken-
STEM, who ran away TO escape military
duty in Russia. His father had been
wealthy, but lost his property through
an alleged reasonable utterance
against the Car. Jacob was two years
older than Annie, and they were to-
eether most of the time on the journey
across the ocean. Annie was sick in
bed nearly the entire trip, and Jacob
watched and nursed her, and did all
that he could do to make her comfort
able. During the voyage Jacob learned
TO love Annie.
When they reached New York Jacob
went to live with a relative named
Meyers, in Waverley place, and Annie
found home in Division street. ia
cob was OF little higher class than
Annie in their native land, and she
did not encourage his regard for her,
because it is not customary for one
OF his kind to marry out of his class.
Jacob. however, sought out Annie and
called regularly upon her. Annie had
never known wrong at that time. She
attended the synagogue regularly. She
went to work in the big cloak factory
in Division street, near Essex, and
tolled day and night to get money
enough to pay for the passage of other
members of her family to this country.
Jacob and Annie became engaged to
be married, and as a token he gave her
a plain gold band ring, the ring she
wore when she was buried. The day
was set for the wedding in January,
1891. Jacob, who was also poor and
working hard to save money TO furnish
a home for them, had a chance to go
into the clothing business in Mobile,
Ala. as partner. He put what money
he had saved into the business, but
after six months trial his partner sold
him out and ran away with all the

bennington. His plan of action was
to secure the acquaintance of some wo-
man whom he believed to have money
introducing himself as banker OF
Oakland, Cal, a California fruit far
mer, a western mine owner or a MeXi-
can nabob. He was handsome, plausi-
BILE, had travelled extensively, and rare
ly failed to make an impression. Fol-
lowing this up, he would make violent
love to his intended victim, become en-
gagged to her, and at about the time
marriage was to take place would de-
camp, taking with him all of the money
and personal property he could secure.
So many of the women thus betrayed
were of good social standing that they
refused TO prosecute him. and in this
way he has constantly escaped punish
ment. When in this country Chicago
was his headquarters. lie had been a
hotel clerk there at one time and also
a heavy patron of the gambling houses.
He usually stopped at an obscure hotel

tried to fool Inspector Stuart and I'm
Gle Sam. The inspector has ample evil
dence against him
