A GRETNA GREEN MARRIAGE.
Joxall and His Sweetheart Went to
 Portchester and Were Married.

Joxall and His Sweetheart Went to
 Portchester and Were Married.
 Ansonia, Feb. 10.-Miss Rachel A.. Griffiths and William JoXall had been sweethearts since they were very small children. That is not very long ago, for Rachel is now only seventeen years old and Joxall but two years her senior. All her friends had said again and again that fate intended Rachel and William for each other, and had predicted they would marry when they were old enough'
 Rachel and William decided they were old enough to marry now and determin- ed to anticipate fate.
 willie is going to take me to the matinee at New Haven" said Rachel to her mother on Wednesday.
 The girl, dressed in her best, set out with Willie. But they went, not to New Haven, but to Portchester, N. r., the Gretna Green for many Con- necticut elopers. There they were mar ried.
 They returned yesterday. In answer to reproaches and the tears of their mothers young Joxall drew forth the marriage certificate and coolly asked, What are you going to do about it?' There was nothing to do but be recon ciled.

FRYING-PAN AND INDIGESTION.
The Two Associated to a Lamentable
 Degree in America.

The Two Associated to a Lamentablt | Degree in America.
 No on who has taken the trouble tc scan the average American bill of fare can fail to recognize the importance oi the frying pan with us; fried ham ol bacon and eggs, fried oysters, fried po- tatoes, fried steaks, and so on, ad naus- easm, seem to be staple articles of food particularly in city restaurants, ir which so many business and professional men get their monday luncheons. The cause of this is probably mainly hur- ry the customer wants something hot and fresh immediately, and the restau- rant keeper can supply this demand with less expense in time, trouble, and fuel by serving fried meats and pota- toes than by serving the more whole some broied or baked foods; the result is the development of an abnormal, de- prayed appetite and a ruined digestion for a lamentably large number of peo-
 
 pie.
 It is not difficult to understand why fried foods are so indigestible if we take the trouble to study physiology of di- gestion. The proteids which are the chief nutritive constituents of meat oysters, fish and eggs, in order to be digested and assimilated must be acted upon by the gastric or parcreatic juices, and before this can taken place the lay CT of fat which has covered and parme- ated the morsel in frying must be re- moved. This is accomplished by the process of emulsifcation, which means the expenditure of large amount of digestive energy.
 The butter applied to broiled meats Is far less pernicious5 for not only is but ter the most easily emulsified of the fats, but 1t is not soaked in by gradu- al heating, as is the case with most fried foods. The condition of the fried starchy foods, like potatoes Is very simi- lar, for in order that the starch may be changed into assimilable grape sugar 1t must be acted upon by the amylop- sin of the pancreatic juice.
 What can be done tr lessen the fried food nuisance? Perhaps nothing so long as present conditions exist; so long as the highest ideal of the people Is to ac- oumulate dollars rather than develop and preserve healthy bodies which shall be the servants of healthy minds Yet if those who teach physiology in our public and other schools understood their subject and it's practical applica- tot,c bov chn d. schools in which wholesome economic al cookery were taught as it should be; If physicians took every opportunity to impress such facts of practical hygien- lc importance, as they should, there can be no doubt that by come sensible and people the fried abomina- tions would be avoided d-Philadelphia Medical Journal.

CRITICALLY ILL.

Hon. Henry c. Robinson, Director of
 the Consolidated Road.
 Hartford, Feb, 11.-Hon. Henry c. Robinson, who has been confined to his home for three weeks, is critically Ill with rheumatic fever. MT. Robinson has been ailng for the past six months. He was confined to his bed some six weeks ago, but recovered and was out at his office for few days. During the wet period of three weeks ago he caught cold again and since that time has been closely confined to his house, most of the time being in bed. Rheumatism was the cause and rheumatic fever has now set in. The danger seems to be that the heart may be affected. Lucius Robinson, MT. Robinson's oldest son, was at his fathers house all day to-day and he said that, although the situation was critical, he did not think that dan- ger was immediate.

ly Described by IA story Teller
from Indian Territory - How
the Animal Was Subdued.

The Century Magazines prize for the
best short story submitted by college
graduate in 1889 was awarded to John
NJ. OSkisOn, of Leland Stanford univerS-
ty, whose home is in the Indian terri
story, and whose blood is partly Indian.

title; ard one of its scenes is desarip-
tion Of a ride on a bucking mule.
"Out Of knot of excited men Hammer

mule. With a mock air of brayado lie
struck the excited mule across the
flank with his sombrero, after roughly

made. These are the motions that

A WEALTHY INDIAN.
DR.. Acland Oronhyntelsha, Supreme
Ruler of the "Ancient Order
- of Foresters."

Although once the possessors of a
vast continent, the American Indians
are to-day a poor people. Except in
few cases where they have separated
from the mass of their race and adopt
the life of their white neighbprs, their
accumuations of property cut COM
paratively small figure in the total
wealth of the country. A rare excep-
ton to the rule is found in the person
of DR.. Acland Oronhyatekha, Canad-
ian Indian, who has gained both
wealth and fame by force of his pen
ius and business ability. DR.. Oron-
hyatekha's good fortune began in 1860.

were continued until the strength of
the mule was almost exhausted, and as
yet only the hat of the puncher had been
dislodged. A short pause followed,
during which the mule changed its tao
ties, and Hammer thwacked its sweaty
neck with his open hand. The next mo-
ton was a sudden rearing by the mule.
AS it rose on its hind legs the rider
yanked fercely on the rens, and, slip
ping to the ground on one side, al
lowed the brute to fall on its back.
The saddlc-horn buried itself in the
earth, and the mules hoofs beat the
air a moment before it scrambled to its
feet.
Hammer was cooler than the mule
now, and swung himself back into the
saddle with the first long leap of the
desperate animal This was the easy
part of the trial for the rider, and the
spectacular part for the world. The
mule ran straight away for the opro-

OLDEST MONUMENT.
II Is Now in the British Museum and
Perpetuates the iemOry OF an
Ancient Architect.

Of course. the most antique monu-
ment in the world belongs to Egypt.
1t is not over is inches high, and
when inspected closely it has none of
the appearance of extreme old age.
Yet it dates back to the year $3.50 B.
c. and immortalizes the fact that one
Hetep was architect to the king at
Memphis.
Incidentally, the oldest monument
pertains to the oldest story in the
word The little piece of carving in

self is a significant fact-and on close
inspection you will observe that the
gentleman has his arm around the
lady's waist.
1t may be well to say, however, that
the lady is the wife Of Hetep, the kings
architect. So it is evident that the
monument only sets forth a case Of con-
jugal happiness, which was none the
less perfect because these old persons
were Egyptians.
A very remarkable feature about this
oldest monument is the fact that the
color which was placed on the figures in
those early ages still retains its bright
ness.
The red and yellow are very dis
tinct, and it is marvellous that these
pigments should have lasted through
so many centuries.
The little monument is exhibited to-
day under a glass case in the western
gallery Of the British museum. 1t
bears no inscriptions to tell that it is
the oldest monument on earth known
to man; only the date sets forth the
story,
This date is, of course, vouched for
by the most learned Psychologists.
