Ornaments In India.

In India, for the mass of the people,
the purchase of ornaments is almost the
one form of indulgence to which man
who has made little money treats him.
self Ordinarily the man who has saved
few rupees does not change the nature
of his food or the style Of his clothing,
nor does he invest in articles of furni-
ture.
What he does-if he is of cautious
and saving nature-is to put his rupees
in hiding place, but if he is inclined
for show he INDUCES his fancy by put
ting gold or silver ornaments on the per-
sons of his wife and children.
These ornaments are the very last
things to be parted with on reverse Of
fortune, and even in the lowest social
depths they are not put on the market
until the last piece Of coined money has
vanished and no household utensils of
brass or copper are left with which to
obtain q coin.

A WOMAN BURGLAR.


Had the Horrible Fate to Be Caught by .
Mere Man.
A woman burglar was captured in
Paterson. N. j., on Saturday night. She
was caught fairly in the act of robbing
the home Of Josiah P. Doremus, real
estate dealer. No formal charge of
breaking and entering was lodged
against her. She was committed to the
Passaic county Jail by Recorder Senior
for three months merely as disorderly
person.
Mrs. Doremus retired early, and short
" before 10 O'Clock imagined she heard
noise as of breaking glass underneath
her bedroom at the side of the house.
Her husband was not at home, and Mrs
Doremus called to her servant, Maggie
Hagen, who was in the kitchen, to make
an investigation.
Maggie made tour of the building
and found that pane of glass in the
side parlor window had been broken.
Making closer scrutiny of the room, she
discovered woman crouched in the
corner behind chair. The girl scream
ed when she saw the intruder, and the
latter flew for the door the moment she
was discovered.
George Slingland, fireman, was
passing the house at the time, and, hear
ing the servant girls screams. rushed
i'll. The female burglar made her way
through the front door, only to fall into
the arms of the fireman, who is a tall,
powerful fellow.
The fireman took his prisoner to the
nearest patrol box and had her removed
to police headquarters. There she was
Immediately recognized as Jeanette

It Moves Fifteen Feet q Day-Causing
Great Alarm and Much Wonder.
The object of greatest interest in con-
tinental Europe at this minute is a
walking mountain in Gard, France,
which is moving toward the river Of the
same name at the rate of 10 feet day.
The advance has destroyed the machin-
cry in the pits Of the Grand Combe col
liery and nearly mile of the Alais rail-
way. The great thing now is to prepare
new channels for the Gard and Carbon
rivers, which are sure, when the land
slide comes. to be completely choked up.
Six hundred persons have been obliged
to leave their homes at Grand Combe.
The lower strata of the mountain, which
rises sheer from the valley, are grit and
green mari. Both ha- given way owing
to filtration of rain. Recently 5000 per-
SONS went from Mines to see the NOV
ing mountain. The noise it makes is
frightful, and there are wide cracks in
all directions. Nobody is allowed to go
on the mountain or into the valley on
which it advances. s.-New York Journal.
