Boys Scooped In.

Night Marshal John Bach made a
slaughter OF the innocents last night
after the curfew bell rang. From
the region around the armory, from
the streets. and various %sequestered
hooks, he drew forth a score Of minors
who, according to city ordinance.
should have been safely sheltered by
the doors Of home. The officer es-
corted the yelling, unterrified crew
to the city lookup. Soon sundry fond
parents received word that II would
be we'll for them TO apply at the city
building for their offspring. The
youngsters, In the meantime, entered
into the spirit of the joyous occasion
with becoming alacrity. Passersby
wondered what sort OF bedlam had
broken loose In the city building. The
parents took the boys home, before
long. and 1t is probable that when the
curfew rings tonight and for many
subsequent nights. the streets will be
free OF unchaperoned and mischevous
small boys.

A Partisan Duel.

An extraordinary duel has just
been fought in Paris between two
youths named Matter and Lamort.
The arrangement was that Matter
was to stand with a drawn sword,
while Lamort, 100 yards away and
armed with knife, mounted his
bicycle. At the word the latter was
to ride at his best speed ct his adj
versary. The combat took place II

mort rode at breakneck speed and
succeeded in knocking down his OPP
ponent, but at the same time feI!
himself. The swordsman received
serious cut On the head from q
pedal, while the cyclst is suffering
from two severe cuts from the
sword.

Care OF Lace Curtains.

The too frequent washing of lac,
curtains is one of the mistakes of
housekeepers. An interval Of two
or even three years may eIapse be,
tween the launderings. In the "oiG
times" they should be pinned on the
clotheslines on a clear, windy day
and allowed to remain until all the
dust has been whipped out Of them.
Then they may be packed away for
the summer in a pillowcase which
has been dipped in bluing until it
is a perfect indigo. By this means
they will come out in the fall fresh
and crisp,

All Fair in Politics.

Gen. lockwood Hoar relates an
amusing instance of the humors of a
political campaign. 1t appears that a
year ago during the campaign for the
reelection of Gov. Bates and Lieut..
Gov. Guild, portraits of those candi
dates, as we'll as those of the opposite
party were to be seen posted all
through the state of Massachusetts.
The rival bill posters must have
been in great haste each to Guido the
other, for it would seem that they
were not always careful where they
put their pictures.
While passing through Haverhilf
one day the candidates were greatly
disconnected to observe their portraits
pasted on one billboard over ltho.
graphic announcement of theatrical
attraction. Under the counterfeit pre-
sentiments of the candidates were the
words: Vote for Bates and Guild"
The portion of the theatrical litho-
graph not covered by the political por.
traits bore the legend: "The Greatest
Vaudeville Team on Earth"

BURIAL CUSTOMS OF OLD.
Warriors Laid to Rest With All Their
Battle Trappinas.

A cemetery belonging to a garrison
OF Longobards has been found near
Ascoli on the Tronto at pass across
the Apennines in Italy. The site OF
the fort is the top of an island Of
rock now occupied by little hamlet
called Castel Trosino. All the war
riors We're laid with their faces to the
east Near the head was found
comb made of horn or bone and a
round shield with iron boss. On the
right lay long, straight iron sword
in scabbard of hide. Against the
right shoulder was laid a long wooden
spear and on the left dagger in a
highly ornamented sheath, decorated
with gold, as well as bow and arrows
in a CULVER.
Generally there was present the
buckle of broad belt, often deco
rated applique for belt and scabbard,
fashioned of gold, silver or bronze.
Small gold plates seem to have been
sewed to the coat in the shape of
cross. One grave contained heavy
cuirass of plates bound together with
iron wire. The horsemen had big
shears for clipping names and a large
bronze feed trough with two movable
handles; often bits, saddles and har-
ness were laid beside the dead.
By the women were worn gold hair
pins, with rounded fiat heads, gold
earrings of different shapes, finger
rings and gold plates. One ring has
the names Gerontius and Regina en-
graved on it. Crosses and necklaces
of gold and beads OF glass, silver
bracelets, pottery vases and plates of
glass, cups, combs and other articles
of the toilet accompany the remains
of women.

Quick Work of "a Famous Remedy.
Convenience, comfort, safety, speed are

| rapid century and the keenest intellects
constantly at work on these problems
are making wonderful progress in the
construction of the steamship aud the

medicines and DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People are astonishing the world
by the triumphs they are winning in the
rapid cure of obstinate maladies such az
rheumatism. With speed they combine
! convenience, perfect safety and cheap
ness.
Here is fresh proof of their concen.
trated virtues: Mrs. Margaret Gantz,
of No. 1927 Bodeman street, Burlington.
Iowa, is an industrious German woman,
who about two and half years ago
found herself i'll danger of losing her
power to work altogether. She says :
II got rheumatism which made my
knees and elbows very stiff and painful.
| had difficulty i'll raising my arms and
! could hardly lift my feet over my
doorstep. ought TO have gone to be6,
but could MT afford to do that. SO
forced myself to work in spite of the pain
and stiffness. After suffering for about
six months, was told about DR.. VIII.
iams' Pink Pills for Pale People by a
friend, who said she had been cured by
them. On her advice, l bought one box
and in two weeks after I began to use
them was well and have had no need
