VERY SAD CASE
Woman and Furniture Set Out On
Sidewalk

Yesterday a very pathetic incident oc-
Cured on the West Side. A Mrs. Priest
lives in the Sunfower block. at the cor
ner of Douglas and Seneca avenues. 4
few days ago, she alleges, her husband
gave her an awful beating and then took
her two little boys and went off with
them. Wednesday morning a man went
to her home on the second floor and
asked her to pay her rent. and as her
husband had not left her any money. she
could not do so. so the man took her
household goods and carried them down
TO the street, where she. with her little
six-year-old daughter. sat all day and
until o'clock Wednesday evening. Some
one at that time came after her and took
her and her bed-clothes away. but the
rest of the furniture was left standing
in the street in the heavy rain Thursday
morning.

The Greatest Men.

It would be a difficult task, if not an
impossible one, to persuade any half
dozen men casually brought together
into unanimity of opinion concerning
the greatest man who ever lived. Most
Of them would agree no doubt with
Lord Brougham that Julius Caesar was
1.-The greatest man Of ancient times.
but how many of the six would accept
Professor Gardeners estimate of Crom-
we'll as the greatest Englishman Of all
times?" Each of them, we may be
reasonably sure. would accept Shake
speare as the greatest poet. yet Lord
Lytton once spoke Of Milton as 1.-The
greatest poet of our country" And

Scotland to agree with Charles Mackey

How the President IL Pn1a.

Tn the apportionment Of the salaries
Of all United States government en-
ployees the year is divided into quar-
ters and each quarter subdivided ac-
cording to the number Of days in each
month, but the president receives prac-
tically the same amount every month.
Thus, If a president should die at the
end Of February. after receiving his
salary for that month, his successor
would in reality receive less than the
full amount due him in March because
his predecessor had in effect been
overpaid the prior month. lnasmuch
as the presidents salary may not be
divided into exactly equal parts, it Is
necessary to pay the chief magistrate
81, 1856 GO on some months and 81, 1857
OH others. On one occasion during
the Cleveland administration a mis-
take was made, and there We're sent
to the chief executive three successive
warrants for $4,168.66. When the
error was discovered, the treasury de-
partment FASTENED to dispatch to the
White House a warrant on the United
States government for cent, made
out in Mr.. Cleveland's favor, though
the president never cashed this check.
