A MIpNIGHT EPISODE.

Tho Entire Matter Was Dropped just
Where 1t Was.
Beemer was walking home late at
the Detroit Free Press.
So was Deemer.
Deemer was not more than so feet
behind Beemcr, and both Of them were
trembling in their shoes for fear of
footpads.
Boomer wanted to run. hut felt sick
Ut heart under conviction that the
man so doggedly following him would
not be robber unless he were .
Splinter.
Dee1ner ached to turn and make a
dash for safety, but was sure that the
man ahead would be upon him within q
block.
Beemer stumbled and yelled police"
Deemer struck out into vacant lot
and yelled police"
They reached their respective homes
pale, breathless and resolved never to
stay out late again.
Next day Beemer and Deemer met
with the usual crowd at lunch. Beemer
gave thrilling account of how he put
footpad to flight the night before.
Deemer was even more vivid in his
description of like feat.
After the two had takeK q square look
at each other they sneaked out to-
gether and before they parted there
was solemn pledge exchanged that
the entire matter should be dropped
just where it was.

There was a general Misunderstanding,
and Herbert Lathrop seemed to try and
retain in his grasp the hand of Clara
little longer than was necessary. She
withdrew it, and there was something
like a flush on her FACET was flush Of
Indignation.
Herbert Lathrop took it for flush
of confusion, and thought to himself
as he saw the rich blood mount to
Clara's face: II have but to ask her
hand, and it is mine."
He little knew Clara Hill.
She knew him intuitively for what
he was.
Clara turned and gave her hand to

The Irish soldier seems to furnish the
story-teller with many an anecdote.
The following incident is said to have
occurred at the battle of Fontenoy,
when the great SAKE was the marshal
in command.
"The password is 'Saxe,'" said the
officer of the guard, as he sent off an
Irish trooper with message; don't:
forget the word"
"Sure I won't, sir" was the reply.
"Sacks-my father was miller"
When he came to the sentinel and was
challenged, the Irishman looked wise,
and whispered:
Bags you spalpeen; let me

IRISH REBELLION CENTENNIAL

IRISH REBELLION CENTENNIAL.
 Boston, July 2.-The arrangements for the pilgrimage to Ireland next year in honor of the centennial of the rebellion of 179S are going forward rap idly. The various members of the Ninety-eight Centennial association, in their respective localities, are engaged in getting everything in order for the tour. The idea is to have the centen- nial celebration of the various battles which took place in Ireland as nearly as possible on the same dates as those on which the battles took place. The battlefields will be visited in turn, and honor done to the memory of the brave men who, undisciplined and practically unarmed, stood against England until overborne by the force of numbers. A large proportion of those who will make the trip will go by steamers spec ially chartered. The indications at present are that at least half a dozen steamers will carry the excurslonists from New York on the trip, while a large number will also leave from Bos- ton direct.

Mrs. Julia Irwin Gives William Botto
 That Sum and Becomes His Wife.
 Louisville July 2.-Mrs. Julia Irwin. aged fifty-two years, and whose for
 tune is estimated at $S00,000, yesterday
 gave Will Botto, aged twenty one
 years, s25,00O to marry her, and he is now on his way to New York on a bri- dal trip by himself He left his bride in this city and she seemed well con- tent, giving him s1000 in cash for inci- dental expenses and telegraphing to her bankers in New York that he could draw on her. account for $7,000 more during the trip.
 The new Mrs. Botto is the widow of
 Captain William Irwin, who formerly owned and operated the Louisville and New Albany ferry line.
 She is handsome and we'll preserved, and formed the acquaintance of young
 Botto about four years ago. At that time her only son, Guy Irwin, became of age and inherited S5O,000 from the estate of his father. The boy bought a string of horses and took young Botto on a trip to New Orleans with him. They had a gay time and 1t resulted In the death of young Irwin from pare sis. His remains were sent home in a silver casket that cost $4,000.
 The mother of young Irwin was with them on the trip and she and Botto be- came fast friends. The mother fell very much in love with him, but he loved a Cincinnati girl and secretly | married her. When Mrs. Irwin learn- ] ed of the marriage of her young lover she was very angry and there Is said | to have been a scene. The young man afterward procured a divorce.
 Mrs. Botto No. 2 belongs to one of the l best known families in the south. Her young husband is the only son of Colo mel John Botto, leading business man. The discarded Mrs. Botto came from | Cincinnati, and she left for this place two weeks ago, when she learned that
 she was no longer the wife of Botto.

HOW DO YOU POLISH SILVER?
Do You Use Gritty Substances? Of Course
 Not.

Do You Use Gritty Substances? Of Course Not.
 Ask any housewife if she would pol ish her silver with sand, or grit oi any kind, and she would laugh at the very idea of 1t. And yet if you ask her if she does not daily grind her
 teeth with a gritty dentriflce, she would have to confess she didn't know The enamel of the teeth, when prop erly cared for, is beautiful in its smoothness and polish It is an armor nature having designed it as a pro- tector of the sensitive parts of the teeth. To scratch and grind this beau tiful enamel with the cheap. gritty tooth preparations made by men who
 know nothing about the teeth, Is al most sacrilege. Ask your dentist He knows.
 Years ago dentists filed away the | enamel recklessly to get at decay, Now they protect and save the enamel in | every way they can. Why don't you aid your dentist in his care of your teeth by using Pearlo-dento? This is the ideal tooth paste, as smooth as you imagine, effective as a polish (not grinding). counteracting the accumu- | lation of tartar, and doing more than
 any other dentrifice can do to prevent decay.
 After woman has once used Pearlo- dento she wouldn't go back to the cheap stuff she used formerly for any thing. She would prefer to pay 5C | cents for Pearlo-dento and get in
 Pearlo-dento what she likes and what | benefits her teeth and gums.
