Charge of Vagrancy.

Ney York, Nov. 22.-Youngsters
playing about Seventh avenue and
One Hundred and Forty-sixth street

clouds of white smoke coming out of
! a 45-inch water pipe in the gutter on
Seventh avenue, one of those waiting

ing made for new mains.
Martha Hagerty. IL years OF age,

Policeman Cavanaugh CROPPED his

CUPID R0BS SCHOOL
Schoolma ANS Wed in Spite of
Agreements on Paper Not
to Enter Matrimony.

Waterloo, Iowa, Nov. 22.-Dan Cupid
is playing havoc with the calculations
of the various school boards through
out this section OF Iowa. Bremen
county is short thirty teachers and
this, Black Hawk county, fully as
many more.
AS consequence, special examin-
atoms have been called to fill existing
vacancies, and to provide surplus
age from which future vacancies, of a
like character, may be filled.
Most of the designations of teachers
has been occasioned by the capers of
the little blind god, and although many
of the school boards have inserted
clauses in their contracts requiring
pledge not to enter matrimony during
the school year. it takes more than a
few "whereases" and "therefores" be-
tween the party of the first part" and
the party of the second part" to keep
the party of the third part from get
ting into the game.
More than q dozen schoolma'ams in
this county have deserted the little
red schoolhouse for the hymeneal altar
during the last summer and as many
more are billed to do likewise before
the first of January.

A R0MAN1|C HISTORY
Is That of Former Telegraph
Operator Who Rose to be
a King.

Paris, Nov. 22.-There is at present
in the city a monarch who at one Pc
riod of his career was telegraph OPP
orator. The story of his advancement
reads like romance Mademba is the
name of this sovereign. He is of dusky
hue, and halls from the vicinity OF the
Niger. He owes has royal rank of
king of Sousouding to General Arch
inard. When he arrived at mans es-
tate he entered the postal service.
With his rifle in hand he construc-
ted telegraph line during a period
of revolt in 1SSO-1SS1. In 1887, when
Generar Garlieni was appointed gov
ernor of the forces of the French
Soudan, Mademba was made diplo-
matte agent, and commanded the aux
iliary troops in the expedition organ
lied against a rebel chief. In 1890
1891 the French Soudan was still in
revolt, the rebels pillaging and burn
ing everywhere. The district of Sou
souding was particularly devastated.
When the rebellion came to an end
General Archinard remembered the
exertions OF the telegraphist. He
considered that his conception of NOR
atty and authority ought to be ap-
piled to the natives. And so it came
about that Mademba was made king
OF Sousouding, the name of the town
that had been burnt by the rebels. He
was given as subjects 500 prisoners of
war, bandits all, who were not worth
the cord necessary Tor hanging them.
Once invested it'll royalty. Mademba
set to work to make these black ruff
fans Industrious cultivators. Soon
prosperity returned to the district.
The rebels and thieves speedily be-
came thrifty workers in cultivating
cotton, and fathers OF families. For
the rest. Mademba is loyal friend to
France. In 1896, on the proposition
of General Trentinian, he was made
chevalier of the Legion OF Honor and
thanked for the services he had rend-
cred to the country of his adoption.

THAW IS CONFIDENT

Which He is Confined a Big
Christmas Tree.

New York, Nov. 22.-Harry Thaw
has q big surprise in store for his
prison comrades. He firmly believes
that before Christmas day he will be

brate his liberation by giving the un-
fortunates who will be left behind
within the prison walls feast that
they will never forget.
Thaw intends to have u conference
with Commissioner Coggey over the
affair to find out how far he can 20
with the celebration under the prison
rules.
Roger oMara, the Pittsburg detec-
tive arrived at the Tombs with Evelyn

CELL door for more than a hour

lation to his defense, and O'Mara will
make a speedy trip to Pittsburg and
places further west to cover Thaw's
orders.

phfn Michael Delmas, California, it is
said, found it out when Thaw ordered
him to maintain the policy of secrecy
which the prisoner has enjoined upon
all his lawyers.

THE PENALTY OF OVERWORK.

Work has been mans lot since the
creation, but a day of toll should not
have its penalty Of pain. Why is It,
then, you ask, that backache so often
follows? It is because the modern
tendency is to overwork, to tear down
faster than nature can rebuild. An I'M
natural strain Is thrown upon the
vital organs, and more especially upon
the kidneys, which have the work Of
fltering the blood free of waste and
The heavy tax Of overwork.- tho
strain upon the back that is SO COM
mon to many trades and occupations,
is too great. The kidneys begin to fail
In their work, and there is double
danger to health. The poisonous mat
ter collects in the system, and the kid
neys themselves begin to break down.
Pain in the back is only a warning
OF trouble in the kidneys. An inflam-
nation has set in, and disordered
condition of the urine soon becomes
apparent.
Too much or too little urine, with a
constant desire to void the secretions;
any noticible deviation from the nor
