denied pocketing any funds belonging to

Relative to the charge that patient
named Briley, who died, was dumped in

who does the asylum work, testified that
McKown never asked him for a large

and very fervently when she turned.
For there, not a yard from her side,
waiting to be assigned to her duties,
stood the most desirable of colored
mattresses.
She was tall, we'll poised and, barring
her skin, q strikingly handsome young
woman. Her pink Bingham gown
one worn by Gertrude for mornings on
the porch. Her dainty ruffled apron was
strikingly like one which Isabel her
self wore while sewing. Percned sauci-
ly in her black. ripply hair she wore a
bit Of a cap, which, when examined at
close range, seemed to be nothing more
than a tuft of white lace cleverly pinned.
Isabel took a second look at her new
acquisition and dropped into a chair
laughing weakly.

the maid repeated softly. And she said
70 yo' to jest go set in de parlo' and

The luncheon was faultlessly served.
Never was waitress quicker, lighter, soft
er, more all-Seeing, more graceful.
Even the critical Mrs. Caulkington was
impressed.
Afterward, when the luncheon party
had ADJOURNED to the drawing room the
guest deliberately led around to the sub
ject of domestics.
DO you find it as hard to get good
girls in the suburbs as we do in the
city," she asked. II imagine not, for
that young waitress of yours is perfec-
ton itself"
"Well, good girls are very scarce here"
answered Isabel. "And I've no doubt
we'd have endless trouble if we had to
change. But, you see, we have raised
Anna ourselves. She knows our own
ways and suits us perfectly. We've had
her for more than ten years. [ know

you know, since I've seen how perfectly
your little table is arranged and served,
I'm really afraid Of what Miss Isabel
will think when she comes to me in the
city. / hope you will close your eyes to a

"Oh, / am not critical, Mrs. Caulki1sc-

Sponge Gathering in Perilous Work.

The gathering of sponges of the Tripod
itan coast requires the payment Of good
sized license fee to the government. The
proprietors send out their boats with
crews of five to twenty men. 1t is i'm
possible to use dredges in bringing them
up, for that would tear the delicate or
ganisms. The work is done by divers,
who seldom have diving bells or suits
such as are used in Europe and America.
The diver goes down into the ocean. TAX
ing with him a flat piece of stone of a tri-
angular shape with a hole drilled through
one Of the corners. A cord from the
boat is attached to this stone, and he
uses it to guide him. Upon reaching the
growing sponges the diver tears them off
the rocks or cuts them with a sharp knife,
places them under his arms, and then
pulls at the rope, which gives the signal
to the men in the boat to haul him up.
The work is said to be done not so well
by means of a diving bell. Sponges OBJ
tanned by dragging for them are torn
and sell for low prices.-Newcastle Eng.)

The Springfield (Mass.) baseball club
has been dropped from the Eastern league

member in it's stead. This action was
taken at a meeting of the Eastern league
held in New York Thursday. 1t was also
day, April q, the schedule to be made
out by President Powers and submitted
to the league at its March meeting. This
will no doubt appease the wrath of Pop

Somers. "But did so only as the agent
Of the American league. We did not ex-
pect to interest sufficient Boston capital
in the league there until the people be-
came better acquainted with us, but we
know exactly where the money is coming
from to run the club, and can guarantee
that we will not only start the season IN
Boston, but stay there until the finish.
