SALISBURY'S WAY OUT.
1t Is Said to Be in an Arbitration
Treaty Now Pending.

CHICAGO, April 26.-The Times-Herald's s
Washington special says Lord Salisbury now
has before him for his consideration an in
formal proposition from President Cleveland
of treaty Of general arbitration of all mat
ters in dispute between the United States and
Great Britain, and of all disputes between
either of these powers and any other power
in which the good offices Of the other gov
ernment have been rendered. The meaning
of this is that the president has offered to
the British premier a general scheme of
arbitration designed to embrace the Venez-
uelan question, but without reference thereto
by +name thus affording method in which
Lord Salisbury may easily reach a settle
mont Of that vexing dispute without too di-
rectly humbling his pride. To this proposal,
made some time ago, after series of fruit
less negotiations along other lines, no reply
has as yet been received.

Hunters CHASTITY Find.

A thrill of excitement went
through Tannersville, Monroe county
on Christmas day, when two young
men, named Shick and Follweiler,
who had left that village for shoot
ing trip, returned with the announce
ment that they had discovered a
skeleton near the Wilkes-B Barre &
Eastern Railroad. A theory of MUIR
der was at once suggested, but the
physicians S examination proved that
the skull was not fractured, as was
at first thought. 1t is probably a
suicide, as a party searching near
the place where the remains were
discovered, found a red handkerchief
tied to the limb of tree. The arti-
Gle had been so arranged as to form
a moose. The skeleton had been
there probably for several years

\ BIG DIAMOND ROBBERY.
The Walnut Villa at Port JerVis
Burglarized.

Mrs Josephine NVIeinan ChIoroformed and
Robbed of 5000 in Money and Dia-
mOnds and valuabIes to the Extent Of
5 $4,000.
From the Union we learn that on
Sunday night Dec. 29 burglars eff
fected an entrance to the summer
boarding house known as Walnut
Villa in Port Jervis, situated at the
junction of Culvert street and King
ston avenue, by forcing open win
dow. The robbers secured over $4,000
in money and valuables. All the
inmates had retired except Mrs.
Wieman who had remained up to
attend to a fire in a stove, and was
reclining on sofa when she saw
the shadow of man in the room.
She was seized by the robber, choked
and cloth saturated with chloro-
form applied to her face before she
had opportunity to give an alarm.
The thieves then made a hasty but
careful search through her bedroom
breaking open trunk, opening
bureau drawers, ETC., and after Sc
curing their booty escaped without
arousing the other occupants of the
house.
The police made an investigation
but without developing any salts
factory result.
Why will people having such easy
access to banks, put a premium on
burglary by keeping large sums OF
money in their possession.

As to crImplnR.

The majority of women make a
great mistake in crimping their hair.
For some reason or other an over
hanging cloud of curls or frizzes has
a way of bringing out all the little
lines and defects that nature or time
have stamped in woman's face.
This is quite contrary to the old
time notion. Then it was taken for
granted that the tighter the curls
the prettier and more becoming to
the woman. But modern taste de-
crees differently. IF you want to
look young and natural rather than
faded and artificial, said woman
the other day, stop crimping your
h lir. know of no surer way to
bring about the effect at least. Just
call to mind the well, not the elderly,
but no longer youthful women that
you know, and think how ugly, in
artistic and artificial they look with
that mass of frizzes over their faces.
And how soft, natural and becoming
straight hair is to any woman at
any age or state of health. Not ne
cessarily tightly drawn, streaked-
black hair; it may be loose and
puffy, if you choose, and always, of
course, arranged with an eye to
artistic and individual effect, but
uncrimped, uncurled and unfrizzed. "

OBITUARY.
ALFRED b. OGDEN.

Alfred B. Ogden, a man we'll
known in the northern part of this
county, died in New York city, Dec
25 last, after a short and painful ill
ness. He was one of the founders
of the Forest Lake Association of
Lackawaxen township, and who in
connection with a fellow member,
Mr.. John Davidson, erected a un-
ique double cottage on its grounds,
sided up with blue stone scraps, in
such manner as to present the APP
pearance of a solid stone structure.
1t is the only one of the kind that
the writer has ever known to be
built. Mr.. Ogden was born about
SO years ago in Yates county, N. Y,
was an engineer and architect by
profession.
In his early manhood he joined
his cousin, General G. L. Kilburn
of the U. S. Army who was class
mate of General Grant at West Point,
in Florida as an attache, while he
was closing up the Seminole war
and making some government sur
veys. When the war of the rebel
lion broke out he entered the COM
missary service under General Kill
burn, and remained there until its
close. After this he joined a corps
of engineers and went to Missouri
and surveyed and built sections of
railroads, ON the completion of
which he returned to New York city
and commenced business as an archi-
tect and builder. Asan architect he
soon became prominent and popular.
He planned one or two leading Hos
pital buildings and many large apart
ment houses there and also the large
abattoir on 45th street and East
river.
Personally Mr.. Odgen was an in
teresting and charming companion,
an upright and honorable man in
all his dealings AS sportsman he
was enthusiastic, one of the old
school. He was we'll informed on
the habits of fish, wild animals and
birds, and when he went for them
with rod or gun he always returned
with trophies of his skill. His death
will be much lamented by his as
sociates in the club and all his other
numerous friends.
He leaves a widow and five child
rem (two of whom are adopted) to
mourn his loss. The Oldest son S.
B. Ogden was his partner in bust
ness and now becomes his successor.
