Ballot Boxes St0len-On Saturday
night some one entered the room Of the su.
pervisors of election at this place, evidently
with the intention of tampering with the
ballots cast at Tuesdays election. A thor.
ough search had been made of the room,
evidently to secure the keys to the ballot
boxes, but the clerk to the supervisors had
taken unusual precaution TO place them
where they would fall into the hands OF
none but the right parties. The supervisors
had met on Saturday to transact some bust
ness which had been carried over since
Thursday and while they were in session
some one stole the key TO the door, which
was not discovered until they had adjourned
and the clerk came TO close up. Thinking
there was probably something crooked, an.
other key was procured and the door
locked, the keyhole was sealed and piece
of paper sealed to the door and to the jamb.
1t was on Monday morning discovered that
both seals had been broken and some one
had been about the room. The box con-
tanning the blank ballots of Damascus dis
trict and the box containing the ballots Of
the FIRST precinct of Rockville were taken
and have not yet been recovered.

Colored Woman Jailed on Charge

COlOred Woman Jailed on Charge
OF characteristics Williams, a colored
woman about thirty years of age, was
brought here on the midnight train on
Thursday night last and lodged in Jail,
charged with the murder of her infant child
The murder is alleged to have occurred at
Chevy Chase about O'Clock Thursday
night last.
The woman came out from Washington
on one OF the Chevy Chase electric cars with
the baby in her arms, and was seen by sew.
eral persons acting strangely.
One Of the men employed at the power
house watched her movements, ana saw
her go to house near the lake and ask for
the loan of a shovel, claiming that she
wished to dig some flowers.
The people in the house thought the
woman's actions strange, and refused to grant
her request. She was then seen to walk to :
ward the lake and deliberately throw the
baby in the water.
The woman was accosted by the man
who had been watching her, and asked
what she had thrown in the water. She
said 1t was bundle of rags which she
wanted to get rid Of She was arrested at
once, and q search was made to determine
what the bundle contained. A small dead
baby wrapped up in bundle was found in
the water. The woman was granted hear
ing before justice Claude and committed to
the Jail to await the action of the grand
jury. The man who made the arrest and
several employees of the road claim that the
body was white.
In conversation the woman said the child
was born dead early Monday morning in
Washington. She said the child had been
kept in her room at her service place until
last night, when she determined to get rid
of it.
She admits throwing it into the lake and
says she was crazy at the time, and didn't
know what she was doing.

Delicious snAiis of Provence.

The Provencal snails, which feed in a gourmet fashion upon vine leaves. are peculiarly eelicions, and there was a murmur of delight from our company as the fonr women brought to the table four big dishes full of them. and for a while there was only the sound of eager munehing. mixed with the chatter on china of tho empty shells. To extract them we had the strong thoras. three or four inches long. of the wild acacia. and on these the little brown morsels were carried to the avid mouths and eaten with bit of bread sopped in the sauce. aud then the she'll was subjected to g vigorous sucking, that not drop of sauce lingering within 1t should bs lost. -Thomas A. Janyier in Century.

ALPINE HERDSWOMEN.
They Wore Trousers Before Biocmers
 Were Heard Of.

They Wore Trousers Before Bioomers
 Were Heard Of.
 Long before the days of boomers women on the higher level of the Alps wore trousers, and no one thought any thing about it. The Alpine women wear the bifurcated garment fer utility and not for beauty, as one may judge if he or she has seen one of these girls. Come Illness and the Alpine herdswomen are far apart, but the style of the garments they wear and the hard life that is theirs are at the root of the trouble.
 These women have little of the grace and agility seen in the maidens of Nor way. They will leap across chasms with nonchalance, but there is nothing wild and free about their movements. While she is talking to you the Alpine herds woman is quite apt to thrust out an un- gainly leg, plant heavy boot on the neck of 8 goat and stand thus while she conyerses.
 With the exception of the blacks who endure life of hunger in the interior of Africa there is hardly any one in the world who fares so badly as the herds men and women of Switzerland. They cannot affort to eat the berries they find on the mountain side, and they cannot afford to drink the milk supplied by their fiocks. Their fare is meat that has been dried, salted and turned into un. savory leather, rye bread that is like blaokened cinders and cabbage stalks in pickle, that contain about as much nutri- ment as R walking stick. Hungry as tho herdswoman may be on her return home. she must eat but sparingly of these dainties, for fear they should come to an end before another trip to the valley can be made.
 These women breakfast at 3 in the morning and then answer tho response of the eattl" lowing at the door of the chalet, begging to be attended to and driven up to some favorite Alp. They eat again some 12 or l4 hours later, when the weary tramp back to the chalet is about to begin. Between times. with sickles. they reap the long, coarse Alpine grasses. which are to serve ss food for the cattle during the winter.
 This grass is bound into bundles as large as the women themselves and car ried on their backs down to the home steads. The winter frewood is brought the same way. The chalet. the home of one of these women. is the most pictur- esque of any peasants dwelling place. but inside it is not desirable. It is usu- ally perched on the crags of the Ober- land aud is dark, for the windows are constructed not So much to admit light as to keep out the heavy snows of the winter. In one corner is low, broad platform with sacks of hay and cou- pie of blankets upon it. The less luxuri- ous dispense with the blankets and the herdswoman usually goes to rest in the same attire she wore during the day. In the autumn, when the cattle are driven down for the last time, dance is given by the herdsmen and the women, and on these occasions the girls exchange their trousers for the usual skirt --Kansaa City Timas.

4 nr.rxelsu. Feat of Memory.

Maretns tells us that during his trav- els over Europe he met the marvel of marveia. at Padua. The marvel in question was young Corsiean, who was in the city for the purpose of pur. suing his studies at the university. Ma retus, havirg heard that the young man was gifted with an extraordinary mem- cry. desired to put the student to the test.
 The person who had informed ths traveller concerning the wonderful re- tentiyeness of the young Corsica.,'a memory declared that he was so gifted in that faculty that he could repeat as many as S6, 900 words if read over to him but once. Marcus and three distin- guished Venetians agreed to test the &C., curaoy of the statement. A committee visited the student of extraordinary memory and found him willing to su5- init to the ordeal. Accordingly there was read over to him an almost inter- minable list of words strung together without any consecutive order aEd without any meaning whatever.
 The young man stood all the time with his attention deeply fixed and his eyes half closed. When the long string of words had been read of, he looked up cheerfally and repeated the whole Of the uninteressing catalogue Of worda without single fault. Then, to show how carefully kis wonderful memory had retained every word. he went through the list backward. When that task was finished. he took each alter nate word--frst, third, fifth, etc. --and repeated them until tho company was thoroughly convinced that they were in the presenc of the most wonderful prod igy of memory that the world had ever produced St. Louis Republic.

 Associated Press teleSTams oi lhe 25th from New York and Chicago place railroad matters iu a very un- certain condition. and from them we clip the following cf interest.
 The santa Fe officials are in a state of agitation, such as has never been known m railway circles m years, all because of secret meet ing of the officials uf the road, called to meet iu the Great Northern hotel, in Chicago. next Thursday The object of the meeting Is a ulys- tery. The announcement that the NandeTbilts ara Co assume contro! oI the Union Pacific aad pilot lt Co a great future.
 In the pending deal by which tbe Atchison proposes to purchase the Sl6ODOOOO of bonds oT tbe Atlantic X Pacific Railway for the western division. it Is expressly stipulated that the Atlantic A Pacific com mltteeS will retain possession of S2749,UUO first mortgage bonds oi the central division Sud retain one sixth o. the equipments ot the west cru division for use on the central division. This last condition has caused some ingenious speculation. it seems. aud-h even isd some per sons tO believe that a portion of the eQuIpueut Oi the western division ot the Atlantic x Pacihc was re- served because It WAS probable that a connecting line was being pro jectei between SepulpA. the end oi the Frisco. iu the Indian Territory, and Albuquerque, \.
