An aristocratic lawsuit, which will

quis, who is head of the Paget family,
declared null.
They only became man and wife in
$685. but it was strictly a marriage Of
convenience between cousins arranged
for the sake of inheritlng property
which otherwise could not have been
touched by either of them. They both
agreed to live their own lives.
Apparently, this extraordinary ar
rangement did not work well in more
ways than one. 1t is asserted that the
Marquis agreed to give his wife $4,000
the first year, and $4,000 the second
year, and so on, until the allowance
reached 10000 a year. However, the
alleged allowance was topped almost

ssoo.ooo FIRE.
Suburb Of DstriOt the Sesns-Bls1e Started
In Idle Mill.

Detroit, May l4-Fanned by a 80.
miles-an-hour wind, fire this after
nom swept the west bank of the
Rogue river in Delray, suburb to
the south of Detroit, for three quar-
ters Of a mile, and destroyed over
$500 600 worth of property
The fire originated in the roof OF a
saw mill. The plant has not been
running for several months and the
roof was as dry as tinder. The build
ing was soon in ashes and the fire
swept across block to where a dredge
was tied up. Despite the efforts TO
save her, this craft was burned to the
waters edge. Great embers were
picked up by the wind and dropped
in several directions, setting fire~to
buildings
Delray has small fire department,
which responded with three engines
and the freboat Battle. Even the
greatest streams of the fireboat were
powerless to check the flames which
were rolling down the river bank for
hundreds of feet. When darkness fell
the glare from the burning poles il
Illuminated the sky for miles The
iremen worked on the fire almost all
night to keep it from spreading to
other property.

AUSTRALIAN PARLlMENT.
First Under the New Federation Opened by
Duke of Cornwall

Melbourne, May 13.-The opening
of the first federal parliament which
took place at noon was a most inn
presive ceremony. The capacity of
the exposition building, the scene of
the ceremony, is II, 600 people, but the
available space was taxed to the ut
most. The decorations consisted Of
regimental standards, trophies of
arms and floral festoons
The doors were opened to ticket
holders at 8 o'clock in the morning,
and by IL O'Clock the auditorium was
filled except the royal dais. This
was located beneath the great dome.
1t held a single row of chairs, the
largest, in the center, being sur
mounted by a small gold imperial
crown. The whole was overhung
with the royal standard In front of
the royal chair was a small table,
on which was telegraph key, by
which the Duke OF Cornwall and
York was to flash the opening signal
throughout the commonwealth, when
the Union Jack was to be simultane-
ously raised in every settlement of
the federation.
The majority of the audience was
composed of ladies, mostly clad in
mauve colored costumes, but many OF
them were dressed in white, Bril-
liant scattered groups OF army and
navy uniforms gave color to the
scene. Facing the dais was slightly
raised platform, where seven rows of
chairs accommodated the members
of the commonwealth parliament.
The lofty north transept was de-
voted to the members OF the state par
liaments. East and west of the dais
we're grouped the ministerial staffs
The remainder of the hall and the
galleries were packed with a well
dressed, earnest, expectant crowd
A great orchestra enliyened the ante
meridian hour with operatic airs.

Craft Which Has Been Used to SmussIe
in Opium.

Seattle, May l5.-The means of
the transportation for the 5S5 pounds
seized several days ago by the local
customs officers and perhaps of tons
of other smuggled opium was located
today by Customs INSPECTORS Delaney
and Brjpker and seized. 1t is name
less naptha LAUNCH 25 feet long. The
craft was found secreted ON the tide
flats in a residence boat house near
Moran Bros shipyards. The launch
was equipped with several gasoline
tanks, half a dozen cases of gasoline,
numerous rubber sacks used as receipt
acles for the contraband opium, rub
Der clothing, dark lanterns, red lights
and many paint pots, indicating that
the launch had changed her color
almost with the changes Of the moon,
and a small arsenal of rifles, revolvers
and shotguns No one was found in
possession of or a claimant for the
seized launch, which would indicate
that the head men in the gigantic
smuggling scheme have escaped, at
least temporarily.

A TRICKY BANK TELLER.
His Scheme for Making Money Led to iiii
Arrest.

New Orleans, May IA Samuel
Flower, paying teller of the Hibernia
National bank, has been arrested here
charged with shortage OF $36, 000
The Fidelity & Deposit Company, Of
Baltimore, is on Flowers bond for
S25, 600. 1t is alleged that Flower,
expecting an examination, sent to an
other bank in this city government
sealed package said to contain $40, 600
and received in exchange for it $40, =
600 gold clearing house certificates Of
the denomination of 5000 each.
His cash having been counted by the
National bank examiner the evening
before and found correct it is alleged
he returned the clearing house certifi-
Gates to the bank from which he had
received them and received in return
his unbroken government package,
said to contain $40, 900. This pack
age was received by the Hibernia
National Bank from the sub treasury,
OF this city, in March last, and con-
tanned $4,000 in 81 bills. 1t is al
legged that Flower had preserved the
label from an old government package
that did contain $40, 900 in denom-
nations of $40 EACH which he pasted
on the package, containing only
$4, 600 in $l bills, thereby making it
a $40, 600 package to all appearances.
This package was opened and counted
after his departure from the bank.

MlIitIa Still on Hand.

jacksonville, Fla, May 15.-The
relief association is doing stupendous
work, particularly in the commissary
and labor departments. There is
abundant work for everybody who can
do manual labor, but difficulty is ex
perienced in getting the colored men
to work. The militia is still in pos
session of the city, and will remain
here as long as the committee of the
relief association thinks best. The
liquor men have approved the action
of the governor in closing the bar
rooms and have endorsed it.
