Case Is settled Out of Court.

The suit for divorce brought by Mrs
Cutter against Rev. George w. Cutter,
pastor of the Claiming Memorial
Church, at Newport, r. l., has been
settled out of court. The settlement
of the case was announced last week.
The plaintiff is a young and pretty
New York woman, twenty or more
years younger than her husband Much
TO the surprise of the community she
left her husbands handsome cottage in
Kay street, and in few months filed
a petition for divorce under the laws
OF Rhode Island on the ground "of ex-
IRENE cruelty and non-support." No
clergyman ever stationed at Newport
stood higher than Rev. DR.. Cutter. and
Mrs. Cutters allegation caused sur
prise. Everything was in readiness
for the trial. Late the day before,
however, counsel on both sides an
nounced that the case had been settled
out of court. Counsel for Rev. DR.. Cut
ter said: You can say that the case
has been settled honorably for both |
parties and that DR.. Cutter has been

the play itself. The constraint of one
position. practically for two or three
hours is fatiguing in itself. and interest
always flags more or less when the
body becomes tired. The body is per-
fectly willing TO give its master-the
mind-all the pleasure the latter de-
mands, until the servant begins to feel
WEAKNESS, and then its demand for
sympathy and relief-especially relief
seriously interferes with the con-
tinuance OF mental concentration. To
relieve this constraint by motion, and
the change of place, gives freshness to
interest, and makes the time Of the
waits seen less long. And then, too,
the deserted danes and damsels OF the
prevailing habit are not reduced to the
condition of ''the maiden all forlorn."
The feminine share in freedom of
between the acts may result
in even more important reforms-but
then let us not seek to do too much at
once.

The Ball Before Waterloo.

Wellington's conduct is a riddle
About the middle o. the afternoon he
was informed through the Prince OF
Orange, as to his enemys movements.
with perfect calm, he commanded
that his troops should be ready in their
cantonments; at he issued orders
Tor the divisions to march with a view
to concentration at Nivelles. the east
ernmost point that he intended to oc-
cupy at 10, just as he was setting out
for the Duchess of Richmond's ball. he
gave definite instructions for the con-
centration to begin. About twenty
minutes after the Prince of Orange
had reached the ball room Wellington
sent him away quietly, and then. sum-
moning the Duke of Richmond. who
was to have command of the reserve
when formed. he asked for a map. The
TWO withdrew TO an adjoining room.
Wellington closed the door. and said
with an oath, Napoleon has humbug-

The Stage Fall.

All stage falls are notifications nj
straight back, front and side falls. and
depend on the accompanying business.
In the straight back fall the best wav
is to strike the stage with the shoul-

the fall is broken with the knees and
outstretched arms and hands. The
skirts help to pad the knees. or repu-
lar knee pads may be worn which are
