jealousy was caused by the separation.
About noon on the day of the murder
Mrs. Scott appeared at the Jefferson
Market court in New York city and said
she either wanted to secure a divorce
from her husband or a separation. as he
had treated her cruelty and had failed
to provide for her. 4 summons was
given her to serve on her husband.
Mrs. Scott then went to her home.
Shortly afterwards her sister. Mrs. An
ME White, called on her She found
Mrs. Scott lying on the floor with a bull
let hole in her left breast. Scott was at
once suspected. An effort was made to
get a statement from Mrs Scott but she
was too far gone to talk and died soon
after being found. Scott, at a funeral
of relative few weeks before. had re-
marked that there would be another
funeral soon" This and other evidence
was brought against him and at his trial
he was convicted.

A Beautiful Cretan Custom.

One of the curious Cretan customs
which prevail on the eve of every insur-
rection is known as adelphopoiesis, or
determination. One of its immediate re-
suits is the cessation of al feuds, enmity
and rancor. It is carried out as follows:
A number of individuals choose a young
girl, who must be pretty-no difficuIt
matter in Crete. They inform her pa
rents of their intention. and the needful
consent is never withheld. Then q priest
is sent for and told to begin the cere-
mony He takes a very long girdle and
joins all the men with it in circle, in
the center of which the young girl is
placed Then the clergyman recites
number of prayers and winds up by Civ
ing his benediction to all present The
moment he pronounces the last. amen the
circle and its center stand in the rela-
ton Of brothers and sister to each other
to all religious and social intents and pur-
poses. Each and every one of the males
is bound in honor-and Cretan knows no
more sacred obligation-to protect that
girl throughout her life, but none of them
can never take her for his wife She
is and remains their sister in the eyes
of the priest and people to the end of her
days. But they must also stand by and
succor each other, and if needs be at the
cost of life itself.-Fortnightly Review.

A PRIESTS TROUBLES.
Father Hellstern of Barton is Ac-
Cused of Having Resisted
an Officer.

Rev. Father Herman Hellstern of
Barton was bound over to the circuit
court of Washington county by Justice
Root of Hartford, this morning, on a
charge of resisting an officer. The pre-
Eminary examination was waived Bail
was fixed at 500, which was Immediately
furnished by two residents of Barton.
Father Hellstern was arrested last
Thursday, when he was taken before the
justice, but his case was continued until
this morning. The warrant Is sworn to
" Henry JannSen. eX-Sheriff of Wash
lngton county. The incident which led to
the issuance of the warrant happened
IA, October when Justice Sievers of
West Bend issued a writ of replevin to
recover possession of a dog which was
supposed to be wrongfully held at the
parish house in Barton. This was before
the outbreak of the trouble between
Father Helstern and his congregation.
When the sheriff appeared to serve the
writ, he asserts, Father Heiistern re-
sisted and used personal violence.
The same day. or the day following, as
Father Hellstern was passing through
West Bend on train, on his way to
Milwaukee, he was arrested by a deputy
sheriff and taken to the office of Pat
. Meara. The parties differ as to what
took place in Mr.. O'Meara's office
Mr.. OAeara was then district attorney
for Washington county and he is now one
of the attorneys for the defendants in
the suits which Father Hellstern has in
stituted. At any rate the dog was re-
covered and the case was settled, ac-
cording to Attorney O'Meara, by At
torney Wittig, who then represented
Father Hellstern. the costs being di-
vided between the parties. There were no

PR0TESTANTS SUFFER.
Discrimination Against Them in
Certain Portions of South
America.

Chicago, H., June 14--At the meeting
of the Methodist ministers this morning
Rev. John Lee, chairman of the commit
tee on religious liberty for Protestants in
South America, submitted a report.
Bishop Vincent, he said, had been asked
if the precise information given by the
apostolic delegate for the republics of
Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador TO the papal
secretary of state was correct. The
bishop replied by enclosing q sta tement of
the Rev. DR.. Thomas b. Wood of Callao.
who was said to know all about the situa-
letter of Cardinal Rampolla to Arch
bishop Gibbons based on information fur
nished him by the papal delegate. and
answered it thus:
1.-THE constitution forbids us publicity
for our worship. The clerical organs
US and preachers enthuSe their audiences
with the cry Death to Professionals
These facts should have modified the
statement of the papal delegate to Ram
Dolla, so that the latter would not have
reported that we are far from being re-
Stricted III the free exercise of our wor-
ship and that Protestants are rather ac-
corded a large degree of liberation than
is compatible with 4 strict construction
of the political constitution of these
countries.
THE present constitution dates from
1860. and found Protestant worship toll
Grated in the land, took for granted its
existence and restricted its publicity
without defining the limits of the restric-
ton. The constitution says: No one
can be compelled to do what is not re-
quired by law nor hindered from doing
what is not prohibited by law 1t is
false to say that we use more liberty
than strict construction allows. 1t is
dOubly false to set forth as
the two foregoing quotations seem
to do, that we are acting
in defiance of law under lenency from
the Roman Catholic church. The truth
is we are carefully and conscientiously
acting within the limits of the law as
interpreted by lawful authority and all
our difficulty grows out of the unlawful
intolerance of the Roman Catholic cler-
gy. The papal delegate in Lima must
have known this and ought 10 have SO
reported it to his superior in Rome
RampOlla does not report Macchis'
words, so we cannot tell which of them
is to blame for the attempt to throw the
blame Of our distresses on the politicians
of Peru and give credit to the clergy for
the liberation we enjoy"

BETR VAL.

Wistfully the breeze was signing,
Sighing-sighing through the trees;
Breathing soft pleading murmur,
Rising, falling-from crescendo
Down a long diminuendo-
Restless WandererI pe'er at ease.
Wooed he then the fiuttering leaflets,
Flutterng, futtering in the breeze;
Bolder grew the whispering tempter
Of the leaves to new endeavor,
would We tarry here forever?
Let's away! Fair summer fees"
Leaflets danced with JOY then faster,
Faster, faster in their glee;
Chanting gayly in abandon:
eve have sighed full long to wander,
Flying here and there and yonder.
Yea! sweetheart, We'll go with thee!''
Wantonly the breeze then caught them,
Caught them-taught them to be free;
Lent them wings. They flew together,
One wild dance moment leading,
Till the mOcking breeze, receding,
Left them StreWn beneath the tree!

the first place, there will be the unusual
spectacle of two national armies, each

and the eastern will be made up of the
two corps of the Bavarian contingent
The scene of operations will be in a neigh

of the Bayarian Palatinate. Boulay. or

Queen Victoria. There promises to be
a large crop of them, and many are al
ready being harvested Some are quite
true and authentic, while more are not,
but it is never a good plan to spoil a
readable story because of a little ques-
ton of veracity. One of the most recent
Victorian anecdotes is told by CORE
spondent of the Chicago Times-Herald,
who declares that Victoria has ever been
very exacting in the matter of court ETH
quette. When she holds a reception she
always insists upon the performance of
every detail of custom. Persons who
are fortunate enough to be invited to
court have, therefore, to drill themselves
and rehearse their parts, for fear of Of

her majesty unbends. On one occasion,
in very hot weather, she was receiving

Everybody was suffering from the heat.
The Queen turned to an attendant sud
denly and exclaimed: "My! Amt [

replied: Eyes, madam, you are" On
this occasion the Queen forgot both her
