HUSBAND
and MAID
ARE HELD

New York. April s.-The police are In
vcstigating the death of Mrs. Ruby
Lnrned, 25 years OF age. which occurred
under peculiar circumstances at her home
IN Ienox avenue apartment house early
today and the woman's husband and a
servant employed by the couple are held
pending the inquiry.
The husband w. v. Larned who Is y
years OF age. says he is an artist and
that he formerly worked as a newspaper
man in this city. According to the story
vi ch he told the police, Mrs. Larned
had been III for several days and yester-
day appeared 10 be IN particularly low
spirits During the afternoon she asked
the maid, Annie Miller for glass or
c.aret and soon after drinking the bever-
age became very drcwsy and went TO bed.
She slept heavily al. the afternoon and
evening and when she showed no sign Of
awakening before midnight the husband
SAYS he became alarmed and called ply
s,cian. Three othsr physicians later were
s,u lmoned and worked over the woman
tyr hours but despite all their efforts shc
Gied without regatning CONSEQUENCES.
When the police were notified OF the
death they learned that the physicians
had found two bottles containing carbolic
ecid on stand near the bed on which
Mrs. Larned was lying. One of these bot
nles,. from which the poison label had
tecn partially removed was nearly empty
! This led 10 make closer inquiries
| OF the husband ana servant regarding the
olaret which had been given Mrs. Larned

| the wine.

| cnoe, but IL was decided 70 hold both he
and the girl pending fuller investigation,

His wife had used her best endeavors

men. she said-to have that attractive
carelessness and easiness OF manner that
the others had.
one day a friend OF the family noticed
that Mr. X, as we will call him, had his
legs crossed while sitting. an unheard Of
thing before In him: once in awhile he
would forget himself and straighten out
his limbs. but soon would como 10 him
self again and cross them again.
one of the intimate friends OF Mrs. K.
spoke 20 her about H. laughingly saying
that it was noticed that Mr. X. had con-
tracted new habit, that OF crossing his
legs
The wife then unbosomed herself 70 her
friend and said: Yes, I've taught him
that--he must do az other men cross his
legs for example. even II have 10 break

This story didn't originate with the

He had two old cronies on the other side
and he invited them 10 come to America
and visit him az his expense They came.
and as n fitting welcome he planned big
dinner OF n dozen courses with champagne
at each course. The three old friends
sat down and the dinner commenced
the champagne flowed.
The average Scotchman likes his
whskey and those In Scotland are not
very we'll acquainted with champagne

third or fourth course was reached. and

Il Was the Same Bunch.

Dan Hart, the playwright, was in
Pittston a few evening ago during the
production Of one Of his plays for the
benefit of the local fire company. AS
Mr.. Hart is a native Of the neighboring
town of Wilkesbarre the boys deter
mined TO show their appreciation OF,
home talent and secured the biggest
bouquet in town for him. One of the
firemen was specially detailed to pre-
sent 1t to the young playwright at the
moment of inspiration. Unfortunately
the guardian OF the floral tribute" fell
asleep and was In that happy condition
when Mr.. Hart vas called before the
curtain. The stage manager came TO
the rescue, however, and presented the
bouquet amid great applause.
Mr.. Hart had a funny story to tell,
and, laying the bouquet on a little
stand in the wings. stepped down to the
footlights to deliver the yarn to the
best advantage.
1t was al this ju%ncture that the "spe-
cial committee OF one on flowers" woke
up. Catching a glimpse of the bouquet
ne sprang TO his feet, and before any
one could sop him, darted forward n
ished playwright, while the audience
roared with delight.
Mr.. Hart paused a mornen as he re-
garded the fireman and the bouquet
with slightly embarrassed feelings.
Then recovering himself. said with a
smile.
II am doubly grateful for this re-
newed evidence OF regard. 1 shall cher
ish this bouquet. and the other one, as
fragrant memefitos OF my visit to
Pittston."
..Ah. g'wan," shouted q small boy In

PALACES OF GREAT RULERS.

No monarch in the world excels the
Car OF Russia IN the splendor of his
palaces. Tsarkoe, near st. Peters
burg. where the emperor has been
staying recently, has a park around it
which is eighteen miles I'm circumfer-
ence.
one room OF the palace has walls OF
lapts laZulf and n floor OF ebony inlaid
with mother Of pearl. Another has
walls Of amber c~uriously carved, and
the walls of a third are laid thick with
gold,
Ia the throne room OF the palace of
the Shah of Persia there is q carpet so
thickly sown with pearls that the text
ure OF the cloth can hardly be seen.
Near Ii is the hFone of carved wood,
studded with jewels valued at $5,000,-
600.
Near the throne stands a huge silver
vase set with pearls and turquoises,
but. strange TO say, alongside of IL
stands a cheap European painted urn,
such as can be bought anywhere for a
dollar.
The shah has curious ideas about
the value of things, and on the walls of
one room a painting by one of the old
masters hangs side by side with a
gaudy poster advertising a dealer in
ish hooks.
And everywhere about the palace are
rats. The Shah has a specimen OF
eyery kind OF eat OF which he has ever
heard, and there Is hardly a country
that is not represented In the feline
army which 1t is the pleasure of the
Persian ruler to maintain.
To take care of his assemblage OF
cats there Is a corps OF well paid off,
Gals.
TIE palace OF the emperor OF Abys-
sinia Is a large building, built like a
Swiss chalet, with a red tiled root and
whitewashed walls. 1t Is a very ordi-
and other inferior buildings. There is
nothing splendid about the palace or
It's furnishing, and, indeed, it would be
considered as quite lacking in every
thing except size as a residence for an
American of moderate means.
But it Is the palace OF an emperor,
nevertheless, and of a powerful one
