Dovlestowu, Pa, Feb. -.1.-Nrs Susan
Weaver. who. it is said. urged her nus
band. Adam F. Weaver. 10 ire the shot
that killed Deputy Constable Erwin
Mondeau near Bursonville on Wednes-
day last, has been arrested. She was
brought to Jail here today. pitidble
incident was the fact that she was ac-
companied by three Of her Ave children
Charles. aged three years; Adam, five
years. and Johnny, six months The ar
rest was made by Constable Aaron LEIGH
ter. of Nockamixon. late yesterday after
noon.
It was learned that Mrs. Weaver was
al her home in the log hut, which Was
the scene Of the crime. 1t is situated in
the woods near Bursonviile. Israel
Moser OF near Bucksviile, who 50 brave
Iy fought such battle with the mul-
derer on Wednesday afternoon. swore
out a warrant for her arrest. on the
charge Of assault and battery and re
sstjng IN officer. The warrant was
placed in the hands of Constable I.cjch-
ter. who accompanied ny deputy.
went to the scene of the murder and
found Mrs Weaver and three children.
AT first she was disposed to resist ar
rest but she finally submitted. and with
her three children was taken to the
office of Squire George u. l'oE, in Mock
amixon, where she was oiEcn hearing
and committed for trial
Mrs Weaver talked freely on The way
here about the fight in the log hut on
l.. .
and now thinks her husband did not do
right in shooting at the cousJablcs. She
appears TO be especially worried about
her husband. and fears the consequences
to him If he is caught.
When Weaver left the scene Of the
tragedy late on Wednesday afternoon
covered with blood and hatess, accord
ing to his wifes story, he went directly
10 the house Of James NJ. LiuherGer. Lin
bergers home is not very far from the
Weaver hut He called Mrs Linberger
to the door and asked for her husband.
She told him he was not at home.
Weaver then asked her to give him a
gun. The woman refused, when Weaver
pushed past her through the door, seized
the gun and hastily left.
Weaver returned to his home Thursday
morning at 3 o'clock and threatened his
wife If she gave him away He supplied
himself with ammunition. and thus plac-
! ed himself in a position 70 make another
desperate fight when he is found. The
fact that the sheriff : posse found warm
stove, but water upon il, dirty dishes and
the remains of breakfast ON the table
in the Weaver hQVel when they broke
down the door on Thursday morning
showed that some ono occupied the house
( during the night after the tragedy.
Mrs. Weaver is indignant at her arrest.
Al the jail she denied assaultiug anyone
except William Glassmeycr. against
J whom she appears to have a grudge. Ac-
/ cordinS to her story. Glaasmeyer, III the
! struggle. struck her severe blow over
| the hand, which bears mark, ana knock
! ed tooth out Of her mouth. Her huS-
band. she says. has been hiding in soy
/ eral places. and she mentioned the names
! Of several of these TO the officers.

OF Milton 8 three wives and his reIAs
lions with them enough has been writ
ten. 1t was hard thing to be Milton's
wife or Millions daughter. He was
stern, he was austere, he was self cen.
tered. his impeecable strength was pur-
chased by sublime and monotonoua
egoism, which is the name they give to
selfshness in poets. Very chill must
have been the life of his girls in that
Puritan house. reading to the inwTapped
Puritan father from languages they did
not understand and taking down from
his lips poetry they understood still less.
Milton found them undutiful. Poor lit
tie "undutiful" daughtersl Fathers had
terrible conceptions of duty in those
days Did any one ever want to know
Milton? Did any one ever not want to
know Shakespeare? Doubtless there are
readers of the Exeter Hall class who
would have yearned for the godly com.
pany Of the great Christian poet. {"
But, on the whole, how thankful one
should be that Shakespeare was net s
Christian poet!p

WALKING GOWN.

It. Borders for handkerchiefs, crocbeted
with tiny hook and made of very fine
cotton, with loose stitch, are often really
beautiful, resembling that made by more
elaborate processes to a surprising degree.
Roman striped cushions are very pretty
and effective, mingled with the other va
rietfesi strewn upon 5couches and zdiyans
and furnishing the cozy aeornerF which is
now to be found in nearly every house,
college room and, of course, studio. The
genuine Roman searfs or aprons are the
proper things with which to cover such
cushions, but failing those-and they are
rather costly and not cemmon-a pleasing
substitute may be devised by sewing to-
gether strips of bright ribbon of different
widths and colors. It is necessary to fol-
low some sort of sequence in the succession
of colors if a likeness to the real fabric is
: to be maintained, but every body has rem
nants of ribbon, left from millinery, trim
ming aud fancy work, which may be util-
lied in this way very effectively.
Japanese paper screens, which have been
damaged by having holes punched through
them-the common fate of paper screens
may be restored to Brightness by having a
breadth of pretty wall paper pasted smooth
~ over The panels. a large brush and
plenty of paste. should be used.
A picture is given of a neat walking
costumeffor q young woman. It isof wine

around the foot with several. rows Of mar

Of tatfeta. The bodice fastens at the left
