vassar college at Poughkeepsie

Vassar college at Poughkeepsie is considrably anno yed over the discovery that the class beauty of the graduating class of '9z is . mulatto. The fact that the giil had negro blood in her veins was not known in the college itself un. til after she had been there three years, where she had passed as brunette beauty. If she could have overcome the desire to appear as the daughter of fabulously wealthy parents. the fact of her being colored would never have been known, but she told such incred l. ble tales of her family's wealth that an investigation was made which revealed the fact that she was sister of Fred. J.. Hemmings young colored graduate of the Mass achusetts Institute of Technol- ogy. It appears that she is the protege of wealthy woman. who had taken care of her since she was little girl. She was allowed to finish her college course and her origin kept secret from the public till after her graduation, but soraehow the facts leaked out. The talented young colored lady is Miss Anita Florence Hemmings of Boston, and aside from her lack of veracity, which is perhaps ekcusable under the circumstances, we don't see why she was not as meritorious student as any who received diploma with her.

Lynch Law in the Klondike.

A New York man writing from Daw- son City says:
 "There is not as much killing going on here as you would think, for we do not think much of bad men up here. We have planted about dozen of those in the last two months, and it has had the effect of keeping the tough sort quiet.
 Il would write about the nights, but we don't have any nights here. You see, the sun sets about 10 p. m. and rises about 3 a. m but it never gets dark. You can read newspaper out of doors at midnight. so you see it doesn't make much difference when you sleep. The result is that the people don't have regular time for sleeping or eating at all. They just live as they want to.
 T wish you could take trip around town here and see these things for your self. Why, it is nothing at all for $l ,0OO to change hands on the turn of card mean that much in gold dust. for real money is scarce article out here every man has sack of dust and he buys or gambles by the ounce or fraction there- of.
 "The dance halls are lively enough, too, for there are lot of women up here such as they are. I reckon there are 4, 800 people here, all told, but they can make noise enough for twice that many"

FROM THE OTHER PAPERS.

Although it doesn't seem to be gener- ally known, nevertheless it is fact that law has been enacted which obliges property owners to cut down Caneda thistles and wild carrots on their premi- ses and on the highways adjoining to prevent their going to seed. The law provides for penalty of $5 and costs. -Winsted Citizen.
 An old writer says: "To make an en. tirely beautiful woman, 1t would be nee. essary to take the head from Greece, the bust from Austria, the feet from Hin- doostan, the shoulders from Italy, the bearing from Spain and the complexion from England" Which moves the Mer iden Republican to ask where Americs comes in. As the formula quoted does not include the element of intellect, ol course the maker of the beautiful wom an would draw on America for ingredi ents to fill her head with.-New Haver Palladium.
 The daughters of Harriet Beechel Stowe have now felt called upon to pub fish card informing their numerous friends that they are far from needing pecuniary assistance. public or private. It would seem to be about time for sup erserviceable people to arrive at ap ap preciation of the fact that there are oc casions when their preferred charity amounts to little less than an insult. - Dsnbury Dispatch.
 In some of the larger cities, men with money are backing young fellows who desire to go to Klondike. They take half the profits and if there are none stand the loss. They show good sense It is safer way to work the gold fields than going themselves. -Torringtor Register. ..

An Old Relic.

[Kankakee (nl) Democrat, July 23.l
 A. B. St. John this morning showed us handkerchief that he estimates is fully 75 years old. It was the property of Mir St. Johns uncle, the late Horace Beckley of Canaan, Conn.,, who, if he had lived until this year would have been 80 years old. The handkerchief is of homemade linen nicely penned, and has printed on it three different kinds of alphabets, both capitals and small letters, illustrations of different boys games, and every line of the printing is perfect, we'll preserved and as legible as the day it was put on, which shows g quality of ink not made in these days Ia the addition to the above it has printed on it the ten commandments ir verse as follows:
 Have thou no other God but me.
 Unto no idol bend thy knee.
 Take not the name of God in vain.
 Do not the Sabbath day profane.
 Honor thy father and mother too;
 And see that thou no murder do.
 From vile adultery keep thee clean;
 And steal not tho thy state be mean.
 Bear no false witness, shun that blot.
 What is thy neighbor's, covet not.
