here from Boston and went to clergy
man 10 be married. h3tcr the ceremon,
the groom passed to the clergyman +
check for ten dollars. Then the groom
invited the clergyman and his wife 70
accompany him and lis bride in ride
about the town the next day in cra"E
that the couple might see tic city. The
invitation was accepted and the four had
a very pleasant ride. The bride and
groom parted from the clcrgymanwith
many expressions of regard, evidently
sincere. Inter on the clergyman had an
inquiry from the stable deeper as to The
identity of the young man. 1t turned
out that he had passed check in pay
ment for his carriage and t4e check had
come back marked worthless. The fell
low paid his hotel bill with bogus
check, and the check he gave to The
clergyman was also no good. The
couple have left town and their where
ahouts cannot be ascertained. The
bride is described as Il lady of very at,
tractive qualities. = Portland (Me.)

Tho Cocn.nut Crnp.

The cocoanut crab is one Of the odd.
est specimens of the whole crab family.
lie lives in the South islands, and makes
a diet of cocoanuts. This species has
a pair of front legs terminated with a
strong pair of pinchcrs, and it is with
these that he husks the nuts and breaks
through the weakest portion of the
shell. The crab begins by tearing the
hus!1, fiber by fiber, and always at the
end where the cycholcs of the nut arc
situated, that being the weakest place
in the shell. When the husk has been
removed the crab commences hammer
ing the she'll with his heavy claw, and
soon makes an opening, through which
he extracts the meat of the nut. Mr.
Darwin, writing Of this crab, says: II
think this is as curious q case Of in
stinct as ever heard Of, especially in
structures so remote from each other in
the scheme Of nature as a cocoanut and
n crab. "--Detroit Free Press.

Milo Christine, the Wonderful Carolini
Twin, in Boston.

Milo Christine, the Wonderful Carolina
Twin, in Boston.
DR.. G. p. Thayer, dean Of Tufts coll
lege, and many other prominent physi-
clans and surgeons, who have visited
Mile Christine, the Carolina twin,
willingly and unhesitatingly give testi-
mlony vouching for the genuineness Of
this remarkable and interesting wom-
an. All the afternoon and evening
crowds Of people attended the recep-
tons, and q great number express
themselves Us being thoroughly satis-
fled that she is everything that she is
represented to be.
yet nottwo, The bond of union, which is
just above the bones Of the spine, is
chiefly cartilaginous, but the spines are
so closely approXimated THAT there Is
an osscous union between them. Born
back to back, their natural desire to
work straightforward hos twisted
them to their present position. Each
can pursue separate lines of thought
and conversation independent Of the
other. From habit their appetites call
for food md drink at the same time.
All the ills of the flesh are not how
ever, necessarily theirs in common, for
one may have the toothache and the
other be free from any ache. Touch
ing them on any extreme of the body,
except the heads, both in common are
conscious of the touch. AS children
they used to have little struggles and
quarrels for supremacy, but, as they
could not get away from each other,
they carly concluded that the best way
to get along in their novel path Of life
was to yield to each other.
The present happiness and affection
for each other IS an example for couples
who arc yolled together in marital
bonds. There has been no similar case
reported reaching adult lifc.-Boston

a Now York Lawyer Forgot That He Was
Proud Papa.
Mr.. D. is AN extensive real e.~{lte
owner in one of the suburbs of New
York, says the New York Times. lie
is also an insurance agent and general
adviser on matters of law and equity
and, in addition to all this, he is the
proud father of Il three-weeks-old baby.
The other day Mrs. D. took the
little treasure into the parlor and, after
half hours cooling, lulled it to sleep.
Then she laid the child on d sofa with
u pillow ut it's feet, darkened the room
and went about her household duties,
just as any good housewife would. All
this time MIR. D. was busy in the
garden. Presently neighbor hap
pened along and stopped for Mr.. D"'s
opinion on law matter and was invited
into the darkened parlor. The Wis
itor went straight for the sofa. He
could see the pillow, but did not OBJ
serve the child. He was adjusting The
pillow to make nice comfortable seat,
but Mr.. D. insisted that he should
sit in the big armchair, sort of seat
of honor for all guests. He acquiesced
and Mr.. D. took his seat on the pill
low.
About this time Mrs. D., whose
maternal instinct had asserted itself,
pecped in to see how baby slept. She
saw her husband sitting where she had
left the child. AS she asked IN an
alarmed tone where the baby was @
mulIled cry came from beneath the pill
low and Mr.. D. jumped up. He had
been sitting on the precious little thing
and the timely arrival Of his wife prob
ably saved the child's life. A few mo-
ments more and it would have been suf-
located. Lucky for the child that I
did not sit on it," remarked the visitor,
who is a man of generous proportions.
The child is all right now, but Mr.. D.

The Eirat Horse7 In AlaslLn.

DR.. Walker, prospector in Alaska,
took some horses up with him. At the
first Indian village the sight of the
horses drove oil the dogs bowling into
the woods. The children dropped their
rude playthings and fed crying into
the huts. The men and women stood
their ground, although in open-eyed
wonder. After much inducen,ent they
were finally prevailed upon to approach
the horses, and their wonder knew nc
bounds. No amount of persuasion
would induce them to mount. They
were the first horses they had ever seen

Aluminium Railway Cars.

On the French state railways it is
stated that number of passenger
cars in which all the parts were for
merly manufactured from brass, cop
per and iron, with the exception of
;lxles, wheels, bearings and springs,
brake beams and couplings, are to be
constructed of aluminium. The weight
of Il car provided with aluminium fit
tings is ~ tons less than that Of the
cid coaches. AS an ordinary train in
France consists of 90 vehicles the
weight Of the train would thus be re-
tuced by 80 tons Chicago Chronicle.

A secrOt Worth Icnouinr.

When one observes the addressed
women to be seen on the streets daily a
person is led TO think that their most
common fault is carelessness in match
ing shades. Better take contrast If
you cannot get IN exact match, but in
London, at least, patience will always
secure what is wanted; if ono shop
does not have it, another Will. liar
monies in dress are moro effective at
all times and in better taste than con-
trasts; thus, if you have a pink even
ing dress try rather to get gloves OF just
the same pink than Of white kid or OF
tan. Again, if you have hat with q rcd
or blue flower, and arc buying dress
that you arc likely to wear with it, get
something with a spray or line repeat
ing that very tone of rcd or blue; this
applies to every color. Strike note in
each costume, however, simple, and
keep to it. The cheapest gown, if all
the details are studied, will cost no
more and will surpass in effect some
thing at thrice the price. - Chicago
