while walking along a country road l came

On January l, n year ago, Miss
WEIGH and a number of other girls
threw a bottle containing all.of their

On January 20 she received a letter
from a Mr.. Wingo, from Springville,
KY, who had found the bottle, and,
finding that none of the other girls
had heard from him, she kept the joke
up by continuing the correspondence.
1t ended in an exchange of'pictures.
Then Wingo secured a position in
the steel mill directly opposite the
home of the young lady at Clarion,
but neither knew they were 10 close

ing up. On this day every person in
the state must clean and disinfect

When Charles Blazee was leaving
the Keystone restaurant in the Penn

the other day he cast an appreciative
glance at himself in a big mirror, set.

officer, making a peremp,ory &c sture
at the cook. He shifted uneasily, but
made no move to bare his head. A

Cannon.

Birkland's electromagnetic cannon.
the one described in dispatches from
Norway a year ago, is now engaging
the attention of German artillerists
in an improved shape. Although it is
only available in forts and is too COM
pick to be trusted to an ordinary gun
ner, the German experts regard it as
the ~forernnner Of a new type of ordi-
nance. The principle of the gun is
the passing of a powerful current
through wire spirals in the bore with.
out heating. 1t throws a 5O-pounds
%projectile more than three miles with
accuracy. But Birkland says he can
increase the distance fourfold. This
is the first electric gun German artil-
lerists have found practicable.

INTRIGUE FOR AN ESTATE.
Pe1isAs lce.ntess Charged, With. S1S-
/, s%titutinE CAilA which she
t.,. Claims ~ Her Own.

A sensation has been caused among
the Polish and German nobility by the
! arrest of Countess Isabella Weisierska
Kwileski, wife of a great Polish mag
nate, on the charge of substituting a
child as her own for the purpose OF
securing for her family an estate of
! $4,000 acres.
The story reads like an old-faslioned
romance. The incidents were first
! made public in 1896, when the countess
| claimed that she had borne a male
child. She was then so years old, and
had not borne a child for II years. The
remarkable, though not impossible,
occurrence excited the suspicion of
Count Mirjislaw Kwileski, a member
of the upper house of the Prussian
diet, and the head of a collateral
branch of the family, which, in the
event of the countess and her husband
dying without a son, would have in
herited the estate.
When the child was four years old
Count Mirjislaw thought he had OBJ
tanned sufficient evidence to prove the
substitution. He brought q civil ac-
ton to set aside the boys rights, and
lost the case. This was two years ago.
He continued to gather evidence,
which il now abundant enough to have
induced the police to arrest the coun-
tess, the charge against her being sub
stitution for the sake Of gain, to which
a penalty of ten years penal servi-
tude attaches. The trial will take
place in Berlin. Two hundred wit
nesses have been subpoenaed.
|. Both branches of the family have
many friends in exalted circles, and
the case has caused great excitement
among them.

WHAT HAPPENED TO JONES.

The O'Callaghans began rehearsals,
the middle of this week, for their new
play "What Happened to Jones' and
it is said that the play will be one of
the best ever produced by this COM
pany, and certainly one of the fun
niest. The cast is a remarkably
strong one and unusually we'll select
ed, including Charles Sidow, as the
wild and savage Indian, Chas. n.
Smith, as the bishop, Charley having
been promoted from the ministry, Ed
Finn, fills the place of the funny
policeman, Frank Gum will be a
giddy young man, Ei Elliott, Old
Prof. tioodly and Edward F. Flynn
will be Jones. Among the ladies,
Lucy Vannier and Grace Franz are
daughters of the professor, Angie Bell
is the funny servant girl from
Sweden, Grace Tabor, the maiden
aunt, Sue E. Flynn, is Cissy the ward
and Adelaide Elliott is Mrs. Goodly.
It is not necessary to comment on the
ability Of any member Of the cast as
all, are too we'll known to the public
for that. The play is a three act
comedy-all one laugh two hours
long. Not even between acts does
the laughter subside to any very large
degree. To say that the play is
Broadhurst's greatest hit is sufficient.
Reserved seats will be on sale at
Hogdkinson's and the entire lower floor
of the armory will be reserved-seats
only so cents. The O'Callaghans
have never been able to accommodate
the large crowds that always attend
their plays, in one night, so the piece
will be presented May goth and s0th,
the latter being Decoration day. A
matinee will be given May Goth at
$3.50 p. N. Admission only 10 cents.
This will be for children only.
