There are a great many preparations that
can be taken Immediately after eating that
will aid the digestion Of food. Some OF
them help digest starchy foods, such as
bread and potatoes aud cereals: Others help
digest albuminous aud heterogeneous foods,
such as eggs and meat and cheese Most
OF these preparations are good as Tar as they

Lawrences abound. She is the finest
huntswoman in the kingdom and her
domestic virtues have been such that
even the Queen has looked with favor
upon her and there has been some
talk of the social barriers being let
down for Viscountess Clancarty's ad-
mission to the aristocratic set. She is

BILE presence.
Lady Headfort, another of the oS-
tracized quartette, was Rosie Boote,
Gaity Theater girl. Rosie is a ma
tive of Ireland, whose pretty face ana
sweet voice made her favorite on
the English stage for six years. She
played in pantomimes and danced and
sang in various performances. One
night at the Gaiety Theater she sang
a song entitled, Some Day / Mean to
Wed a Duke. Don't Doubt Me-" The
voice, the face the figure struck the
fancy OF the young Marquis of Head
fort, who was present. His mother
and King Edward interposed objec-
tions, but the young marquis was de-
termined. He sent a note to the King
in which he said the lady whom he
intended to wed was doubtless known
to your majesty" The couple eloped
and were married last spring. Under
ordinary circumstances the wife OF
the Earl of Beehive Marquis of Head
fort and Baron Kenlis would be pres
ent at so important an event as the
coronation of a King, but because she
was an actress, this cannot be.
The Countess OF Orkney is older
than any of these and, when the 9TH

in eastern New York, in which act he
was detected and caught redhanded,
despite the vicious fight he put up
to prevent capture.
Dawson was treacherous and abso-
lutely untrustworthy, to or with any
body. He would rob the hand that fed
him or administered to his other wants
would his worst enemy.
During the last few years the in
firmities of age began to creep upon
hm. He contracted rheumatism,
which kept him in a Virginia hospital
for time, and from there he drifted
to Sparta, Wis. where lived a
man with whom he had trained IN
various channels of crime. He had
saved up a little money, and settled
down to a quiet life for a time, for the
only reason that he was unable to
commit any more deeds of villiany.
His acquaintance sheltered him, and
he remained with the family, under
the plain name of John J. Smith, until
his death last week, when, by his re-
quest, his remains were shipped back
TO Tuscarawas county, and buried near
the place where his boyhood days were
spent This was the only indication
of sentiment the man was ever known
to develop, and this came only with
the approach of death, for which he
evinced not the slightest fear. nor did
he manifest the slightest repentance.
He died as he had lived. one of the
wickedest men of earth since the days
of Nero.

THE PLAYING OF POINT euoHRE.
New system OF Scoring In Progressive
and Its Advantage.

Advocates of progressive euchre re.
form are now advocating a change in
the system of scoring the game. They
believe that the score should be com.
puted by points ana not by games, as
is generally done now
Point euchre. they say. is recog
nized by euchre players as the only
fair way in which the game can be
played. as each player receives credit
for all points made at each game,
1t can be played at any progressive
euchre, either at home or in clubs.
Excitement begins with the first hand
and continues until the last hand is
played Many Objectionable features
OF the old game are overcome in point
euchre, as fast playing is one of the
essentials of the game.
point euchre tally card is num-
bered from l to 100. Each player has
a tally card and each receives the
number of points made at the end of
each game
For example. in the first game al
the head table one couple make
poihlS' lht OlutI sue pOlulS. nt
cards of those having are each
punched 3 and the other are punched
4. Winners move as in the older
game.
! All other players receive punches
/ for the number of points they have
made. while the head table players
were making their and some play
ers at the other tables may have
made as many as 10 points.
/ Should the head table players al
any time score more than points
they get credit for all they make over
8, as, for instance. if lone hands are
played to count 4, two lone hands
would make a possible s.
The head table players should al
ways play as rapidly as possible. t
prevent the other tables from making
high scores. All rules of euchre ap
ply to this game.
At the end of the two hours play
ing the highest number of points mad,
would determine the winners o
prizes.-New York Sun.

Boat 1000 Year. Old Found.

A remarkable discovery has been
made in County Mayo, Ireland, where
a wooden boat. believed to be nearly
1000 years old, has been dug up by
some laborers. The boat is beauti-
fully carved from the trunk of an oak
tree 1t is forty-six feet long and
shows absolutely no signs of decay.
The wood was so hard that hatchets
made scarcely any impression on 1t.
Excursions are now being organized to
view this relic Of Celtic handicraft
which will shortly be taken to ths
Dublin Museum.

Speed on Electric Roads.

The German Society for the Study
of Electric Railways has lately exper-
imented upon speed, and in some Of its
trials 100 to los miles an hour was at
tanned. The air resistance was found
to be equivalent to the force Of wind
with velocity of twelve feet second
This is a velocity which has only once
been reached by German storms, name
ly, IN the hurricane of February, 1894
The eXperimenters are confident that
speed much exceeding 100 miles an
hour can be maintained on electric
railways.

Arlstocratn Live Long.

The value of a life of comparative
ease, which the possession o. a title
naturally suggests, is fully demon
strated so far as making for longevity
by an analysis of the obituary of the
British peers, baronets and knights
who died last year, or rather between
Dec. 6. 1900, and Dec. o. 1901. Nine
teen members of the upper house died,
twelve of them being 20 and upward,
while five were 60 or over, thus leav-
ing only two who had died at COM
paratively early age. The number Of
baronets who died was thirty-four,
seventeen of them, or exactly 80 per
cent. being 20 or over, while nine of
them were 60 or more The knighte
who died numbered fifty-one, and
thirty-one of them were 20 or more.
while thirteen were 80 or over.

Titled Sgporner3 Are
Barred from Court
-Four Peeresses. Holding Some of the Proudest Names
Among the English Nobility Are
Socially Ostracized.

While most of the women of the 1
British aristocracy are preparing for
the display Of dress and figure at the
coroE9tion of King Edward in June
there are four members OF the fair
sex across the water who wear old and
houored titles who will not need to
spend their money in preparation for
this event and who cannot look for
ward with anticipation. For them the
coronation Las no mec ming except to
mark their ostracism from the society
of the elect. Gossip has said that they
may participate in the procession, ball
and other ceremonies. but 1t Is
now claimed that from the list of I'll
tied ladies invited to the coronation
will be omitted the names of Lady
Clancarty. Lady Orkney, Lady Head
fort and Lady Hope. They are persona
non grata at the English court, though
they bear the names of peers whose
rank is high. All of the quartet are
as talented and clever as any of the
titled ladies who enjoy the Kings ia
vor; indeed, it was their cleverness
which gained for them their titles. Al
four were poor singers and dancers
who caught the fancy Of young noble
men and became their wives. But be-
&C Sc they were women OF the stage
| they have no social standing and are
excluded from the privileges which,
! by reason of their marriage, they have
reason to believe themselves entitled
| to.
/ Perhaps the most interesting, as she
is the most handsome, of this quartet
is the Viscountess of Clancarty. Her
/ father. one Billion, was a respectable
British soldier who thought well OF
his daughters. Belle and Flo, but who
could not give them the comforts and
pleasures they desired. When Belle
was 10 the two ran away from their
home in Woolwich and became gyp-
sizes. tramping through the provinces,
singing in suburban music halls and
finally becoming favorites at the AL
hambra music hall in London. Within
a week after their arrival at the
metropolis, Belle was the idol of Lon
don's titled young idlers. OF the lat
ter, Richard, Viscount Dunio, was the

Baby and the Monkey.

Babies are very little like monkeys,
and we are least human when we are
youngest. But by way of solace, and
to save our self-conceit. if that has
suffered. they assure us that whereas
the little monkeys grow less and less
like humans every hour they grow,
our babies turn their backs on the
monkey type at the first squirm and
grow away from it hand over fist dur
ing the whole of their protracted
period of development. The monkey
child's strength runs to jaw and to
length of limb, and to agility and
monkey ways, says harper's Magazine.
The human child's nose asserts it
self, his brain grows and grows. and
insists on having room to expand in.
and his skull takes shape accordingly.
He finds his legs and gradually puts
them to use, though in some children
strength comes to the legs very slow
ly The learned doctors assure us. too,
that the period of upward develop
ment in which the child grows more
human all the time, and keeps putting
distance between himself and the
monkeys, is in infancy and early
youth. and that presently upward
evolution stops. and development be-
comes AN adaptation to the environ
ment. without regard to upward ZOO
logical movement"

Ebon Dawson. The Wickedes Man Earth" Gees
to Judgment Without q Tear
Prayer His Career

With the death of Ebon Dawson,
who was laid to rest in little coun-
try Churchyard in Tuscarawas county,
Ohio. few days ago, a chapter OF
crime, unequalled even in border lore
has been closed. and the fms is
written in letters of blood upon the
crimson-sinned heart of man who
had committed crimes enough in his
lifo to have sent him up for life to al
most every penitentary in the union,
even supposing his life had not been
early cut off by the hand OF the law,
as IL should have been on several sep
aratc occasions. for the offense of muir
der.
A founding. with never a bit of
knowledge as to his parentage or any
other relative in the world, he was in
early years bound out to farmer near
Canal, Dover o., and was playmate
of the afterwards notorious guerrilla,
Quantrell, whose aged mother is now
living in that same community, ana
who still clings to the belief that her
son was more sinned against than sin
x.
was always good TO her.
Dawson was not good to anybody
for any length of time, He was as
thoroughly bad, through and through,
as any pirate who ever hit weazand
or ecuttlod a ship.
When but lad at school he rearly
killed an incffensive boy who chanced
to anger MIN by some trivial occur
renee He dubbed the wife of the
man who raised him because she re-
fused him money to go to a circus,
and then held up a small boy en- route
TO the show, took his money from him,
and with It purchased a rtic.:et. The
character of deviltry and wickedness
manifested itself in every conceivable
form.
When but 20 years of age he killed
miner named Morenci near Camel
ton. o.. robbed him of his wages, and
fed. A year later he was captured
while beating woman to death in the
Gore region of the Hooking Valley,
and sent to the Ohio penitentiary
where he served term of three years
and eight months under the name Of
Ira Smith.
He appeared to have a penchant for
mingling with the rougher class about
the coal mining districts, and he soon
drifted into the Lehigh Valley, where
he was run out of a mining camp one
night after having brutally treated a
young woman, a miners daughter, and
almost beaten the father to death in
fight which subsequently ensued He
was a muscular, brawny fellow, and
absolutely without fear. 1t was his
boast that he was afraid of no man,
woman, or child that ever trod the
earth, and he gave every evidence Of
believing what he said in perfect sin
cerity. He was brutal alike to man
and beast. Once in Wellsville,O., he
was arrested for nearly beating horse
to death because the animal had kicked
at him as he passed by 1t is said that
on more than one occasion he had
caught dogs that barked at him when
passing them and deliberately cut their
throats.
He got mixed up with the notorious
counterfeiting gang that infested Sey-
mour and Osgood, Ind, a number of
years ago, and aided not only in that
work but in running other peoples s

A Professions, Charity worker.

THE newest profession for women
Is that of charity worker" remarked
a prominent club woman yesterday.
"You needn't laugh. There really is
such profession. and it is new, and
if were young woman | would en-
ter into training for it. There is not
much competition as yet, and the op-
portunities for studying charity work
are limited, but still it is now possi-
BILE. New York has established train
ing school for charity workers, and II
is meeting with success. The women
who enter are put into active service
at visiting under proper leadership and
then there are courses of lectures upon
the different phases of the subject. 1t
Is quite worth entering from a finan-
cial standpoint, also. Philadelphia is
proverbially conservative, and yet we
pay the young woman at the head of
our organizing charities the salary of
$1,000, and she can greatly supplement
it by lecturing and literary work upon
the subject of her profession. Other
cities do better than this and the time
is not far distant when all charitable
work will be conducted in a methodi-
cal manner by an expert, who will be
well paid for her services. ."-Philadel-
phia Record.

A gentleman staying in hotel in
Dublin recently was startled by some
thing falling from the chimney on to
the fire. 1t proved to be a pocket
book, the contents of which afforded
certain evidence that they had been in
the chimney nearly quarter of CEN
tury. The book contained some vis-
iting cards bearing the name of a
Capt Lambert, a shillings worth of
penny stamps, receipt for ESQ GATED
1879 small calendar for the same
year and a ticket for a circular rail-
way tour with the same date. The
memory OF the hotel does not so back
far enough to explain the mystery, but
there is little doubt that the pocket
book so strangely recovered affords a
clew to crime which may have baf-
fed the police twenty-three years ago.
