THE DOODLESACK.
The Noisy Instrument Ha. Lived ana
Spread In Spite Of It's Afu-
steal Den0uncefs.

A writer in the Athenaeum asserts
that bagpipe music has suffered
greatly through the efforts Of we'll
meaning but mistaken people to lift
it out Of its proper place and graft
it on to city life and its inside enter
tainments." To compare its music
with classical productions" is s'Eke
comparing 'taties and herring with
wine jellies" A Chicago jury once de-
cided that the bagpipe. was not mu'
steal instrument at all. But why quar-.
rel with definition? Enough that
it has lived through some bad crises.
When that phase of life in which it was
born and brought up passed away, it
declined to be moved into the back
ground. In short, it had the will TO
live without the adventitious aids of
cranks and Of congresses, because it
answers primitive want. Indeed,
nothing could be more ironic than the
fact that the military organization
which did much to crush out every.
thing that had made it a power should
have been SO completely conquered by
it that there are now two-and-twenty
pipe bands in the British army. The
bagpipe has been annexed by some Of
the native Indian regiments, notably
those in the Punjab, and it continues
to spread there as great military
instrument.

Prevalence Of the Disease There IL

United States Consul Victor E. Mel.

which he says that the prevalence Of
leprosy in Denmark must be imputed
to the uncleanliness and carelessness
of the people, says Washington re.

patients there, of whom four are in
Copenhagen. In Denmark leprosy

there were 81 patients received during

CONNECTICUT MYTHOLOGY.
Marvellous Book by q Picture
esque PersOnaEe.

Once upon a time-to be more pre-
else, in the latter part of the eighteenth
century-there lived worthy Connec-
says B. j. Hendrick, in Leslie's Month
ly. Peters was picturesque person
age in his way, but his fame rests en-
tirely upon the fact that he wrote a
book. This is one of the most marvel
Gus works ever issued from the press.
It was Mr.. Peters, for example, who
first discovered, and made known to
the world, that the founder of Yale
college was a Rev. Thomas Peters, eyi.
IDENTIFY one of his own ancestors; that
at Bellows Falls the water flowed so
fast that it became as hard as marble,
making it possible to float crowbar
upon it; that two most marvellous
quadrupeds, the "whappermocker"
and the ''cuba" evidently the ances-
tors of the jabberwock) .roamed wild
in the Connecticut forests; and it is
also from Mr.. Peters that we first
learn Of the famous incursion of the
Windham frogs. But it was in the
early Jurisprudence of Connecticut
that this expatriate made his most in
teresting discoveries. He informed
his English readers-and most of them
believe the story devoutly to this day
that the citizens of the state were
forbidden by law to make mince pies,
to play on any instrument of music ex-
cept the drum, trumpet or jewsharp,
and that every male must have his hair
cut round, according to cap''-the
model preferably being the hard shell
of a pumpkin. In other words, Mr..
Peters was the original promulgator
of the Connecticut "blue laws" and
his fame as the inventor of many of
them is secure.

dren, making total of II deaths.
There is, however, no expectation that
q Ore than one crime can be fastened
upon the prisoner; and even that is
extremely doubtful, unless the author
titles can produce much stronger tes-
timony at the coming trial in the Grim
inal court than they furnished before
the police tribunal. Should the prose
cutting attorney succeed in proving the
woman's guilt in the Pugh case, other
charges may be taken up, but to the
unbiased observer it seems as though
the story of II mysterious murders
viii very likely evaporate in thin air.
Moreover, even the most relentless
purSuers Of the defendant are unable
q associate any evidence with the

REVOLUTIONS AND REFORMS.
The Importance OF the Innovator In
WORKING Revolution In Agri-
cultural ARaiRs.

In all ages Of the world It has been
the leaders Of men who have wrought
revolutions and reforms. Men are by
nature and habit conservative, and If
they are getting on as well as their
fathers, are content to let we'll
enough alone. One disconnected inno-
vator, who believes in better things
than prevail, and has energy AM en-
terprise to put his thoughts in mo-
ton, has often proven Of more real
value to community than hum
dred Of the other sort would ever
prove to be. We have known more
than one instance where single
farmer has gone into staid COM
munity Of conservatives and aroused
them all, and in few years made q
flower garden Of q comparative will
derness. Men are like flock Of sheep
that win browse on the commons and

the estate is to be distributed amonr
Mrs. Lizzie Brown and Mrs. Witwer, Of
Dayton, o.; Mamie Parashot, of New
York; Frank Richmond, of Addison,
Mich, and John Richmond, of Nash-
vile, Tenn.
Mrs. Witwe-- makes the assertion
that her mother bought poison to kill
rats which were eating potatoes, but
Mrs. Richmond denies the charge.
While the police were unable to find
potatoes in tn. cellar when they made
their first inve s4igation, they made an
other search and discovered some
sweet potatoes near rat hole. These
potatoes appeared to have been bitten
by human teeth rather than by rats.
and by the police Mrs. Witwer was at
once given credit for the act in the
hope that she might thereby deceive
the detectives.
II looks count for anything, the
average observer would certainly not
connect the accused with any crime
whatsoever. She is what women call
a good dresser" and does not look
her age-47. He-hair is slightly tinged
with gray and she has the bearing Of
woman of intelligence and refine
ment. In Dayton church circles she
has long been well and fayorably
known, having since her residence in
the city been member Of the Hart
ford street and Riverdale United
Brethren congregations. She has been
an active member, taking lively in.
terest in home and foreign missions
and other church affairs. While all
of her friends are loathe to believe the
charges against her, yet none of them
came to her aid after she had been
formally accused. and it devolved upon
her neighbors to take an interest in
her case, or she would probably have
been unrepresented at her prelim-
mary trial.
Mrs. Witwer's marital history Ger.
tainly is unique. Frank D. Witwer was
the last of her husbands who died
suddenly. She was married to him
last March, and on July he died.
Like all her husbands, he had stom-
ach trouble a short time before his
death. He was taken violently i'll some
time after eating luncheon which,
according to the sleuths, his wife sent
to him. Mrs. Witwer's first husband
was Frederick Sweinger, who died
near Nashville, Tenn, in 1877, sup
posedly from smallpox. The second
husband was Frank Brown, of Mid.
dletown, O., with whom she lived for
several years. Soon after his death

Similarity Of Names.

It appears that a consignment OF
Wheeling stogies" recently shipped
to England was classified by the Gus
tom house officials as ''leather manu-
factures," on the assumption that they
were boots for bicycling. This is equal,
says the Pathfinder, to the Dutch pat
ent Office, which classified an American
machine for making ginger snaps un-
der 'distilling and brewing" on the
assumption that ''ginger snaps" was
some sort of "schnapps" to drink.

1rs. Witwer has just had hearing,

poisoned her sister, Mrs. Anna C. Pugh.
q number Of expert chemists testified
~ the case, and were emphatic in their
statements that arsenic had been
found in the stomach of the dead wom-
q. On the strength of this testimony
lrs. Witwer was bound over to the
court OF common pleas, without bond,
