 Much less dan Ophelia.'
 "Ophelia looks like she's worth her weight in gold" said the Judge.
 Appearances are defeitful, Jedge," said the defendant, land so is dat oman"
 You don't mean to say that Ophelia is full of deceit?" asked the Judge.
 Yesslr; dat's jcs what's de matter wid 'er."
 Well, we will take the deceit out of her, said u e Judge. "and see how much she will weigh then.'
 You ain't gwine ter git muffin outer me but de truf," said Ophelia.
 T think that will be sufficient" said the Judge. Tt would probably take too long a treatment to es;S- @zt the deceit. Then, if what tho defendant says Is true, there might be nothing left. I would not like to see you enter court at 300 pounds and depart living skeleton. It Is not healthy in here, I know-it is particularly unhealthy for criminals but such a transforma ton in fair Ophelia would cause unfavorable comment. While this room is sweat box, 1t is not a Turkish bath, and I don't want you to lose too much flesh. What do you say, Horace, about the assault and battery on Ophelia?" continued the Judge.
 "Jedge, I dunno muffin bout dat case, said Horace.
 "9e stuck pin In her, Your Honor" said an officer. "He said he wanted to see if her arms weren't padded.

 "No, sah He said dere was ernouf ter make CT square meal, but didn't say nuf- fin bout curves"
 "He didn't get onto her curves, I sup pose,'' said an officer.

 "Yessir, Jedge. I'll explain it ter you. It's all frum prejudicy. Dis oman bin washin fur me an de washin' war so bad I wouldn't pay her an she had me ar- rested"
 'Jedge, I couldn't git no soap dat would git dat mans close clean,' said Ophelia. Oats sof' soap she's givin' you, Jedge," said Horace.
 'I used sof' water an hard soap, Jedge." said Ophelia.
 Did you try to rub that into the de- fendant as well as his clothes?" asked the Judge.

 Paine's celery compound is a physicians remedy, and all schools of physicians pre- scribe it.
 It is guaranteed by thousands of men and women whom it has benefited. It has saved the health and lives of hun dreds of sufferers in every community
 It is the only specific known for dis eases arising from a debilitated nervous system and impure blood. Again and again it cures when every other means falls. It is as far in advance of the ordi- nary well meaning but useless sarsapa- rillas, nervines and tonies, as a finely ad- justed chronometer is superior to the dummy clock on a jewellers sign post.

Man Arrested in New Haven Is Rosse
 Raymond.

New York, March s.-Captain Titus of the Detective Bureau said today that AL fred Parsons, the New Haven prisoner charged with attempting to swindle Pro- lessor Hadley of Yale, is not Eugene La selles, but that he is Rosse Raymond, all most as well known as Laselles.
 Captain Titus says Raymond was sr- rested in 1889 on the charge of forging a check and was sentenced to two years imprisonment. The complainant then was Edward Copp. On November 22 he was sentenced to ten years imprisonment in England for forging a bill of exchange on John Hiley of Winter Garden, near London.
 Raymond was subsequently, arrested in Wisconsin for some small offense.
