Travels of a Heart.

The bad luck which followed James,
Marquis of Montrose, in the flesh, still
kept moving on after his death Those
familiar with his history may remem-
Der that he bequeathed his heart to his
beloved niece, Lady Napier To carry
out his wish, Lady Napier was obliged
to disinter his body, extract the heart.
embalm it, and then inclose it in a steel
case made, by the way, from the blade
with which Montrose fought at Aul-
DEAN. Tippermuir and Kilsyth. After
ward Lady Napier put the precious
relic in a silver urn and sent it to the
second Marquis. Somehow or another
it was lost on the way, and not found
again until the next century. 1t was
then in the possession of a Belgian
collector, who, on learning its history,
restored it to the Napier family. Lord
Napier then presented it to his daugh
ter. who carried the heart to India.
Off the Cape de Verde Islands it was
nearly lost again. At Madras another
silver urn was made for it, with an
inscription in the Tamil and Telegu
tongues, stating what it contained The
Hindoos, thinking it some sort of
talisman, stole it, but afterward re-
turned it to the owner. The heart was
then taken back to Europe 1t was
in the year 1892, and the Directory
was in power in France. While passing
through that country it was learned
that the Government had ordered all
valuables to be confiscated The heart
was thereupon intrusted to the care
of one of the English attendants, who
succeeded in losing it. and from that
day to this it has never been heard Of.

Tipping the Curate.

The ever-recurrent question of tip
ping has taken on new phase, and a.
curate has been writing to the papers
to complain that he is the only per-
son who gets nothing out of a wedding
Clerk, verger. pew-opener, policeman
and all the rest are remembered" and
the wedding fee goes to the incumbent,
who sits at home at ease. 1t is a little
difficult to decide what is the smallest
sum that would not offend a curate
At any rate those about to marry
might make a note of it; and if it is a
f5 note, all the better for the curate.-

INSANE PATIENTS.
The Lunacy Commission Making
Important Investigations

AS readers Of the Record Union are
aware, the State Commission in Lunacy
recently took steps to determine
whether or not Jeanette NJ. Marshall,
the Scotch woman who became de-
mented shortly after her arrival in the
State and who is at present confined in
the Southern California Hospital could
under the statute governing the case
be deported to Scotland
Attorney General Fitzgerald recently
furnished an opinion that the deporta-
ton could be ordered by the board, and
the necessary papers have been made
out and forwarded to Frank Smith,
United States District Attorney for
Southern California.
The question remaining to be determ-
ined is whether the deportation shall be
made by the steamship company or the
Federal Government, and on this the
District Attorney must decide.
AS a very large portion of the insane
in this State are aliens and paupers, the
point at issue is a very important one
Secretary Carrere says the commits
sion is also gathering the facts as TO
what proportion of the insane in the
State hospitals are not paupers but
whose care should be paid for by their
relatives or from their own estates.
Enough is already known to show that
the State is put to much unnecessary
expense for the care and treatment of
patients.
Returns have been received showing
the number Of patients confined in the
several insane asyluns on August 31st,
as compared with July 31st. to be as
follows:
Stockton, July, 1886 mo change);
Southern California, July, 553 mo
change; Napa. July l, 433. August l 436;
Agnews. July. 900, August, o04 Mendo-
elmo, July 420. August, 434, increase for
August y. increase since Aprll Both. 10.
