 Question.

When I was down in Tennessee last,' said drummer for a New York dress-goods house, according to Judge, a customer of mine, after buying a nice bill of goods, invited me to go to his home with him to show some sam- pies to his sister. He was going to be married, and, as the prospective bride was poor. he intended to give her a wedding-dress, and wanted his sister to select 1t. He was a bachelor about 50, and was bit shy on wedding tog- gery. His home was next door, and wasn't more than introduced and my business stated when was aware that the sister wasn't favorable to the match.
 Why, John, she protested, I don't want to pick out dress. You can do 1t as well as I can"
 No. I can't he insisted.
 Well, let her do it. then. She's going to wear it.

 Day h the Same.

This affair was arranged by hostess always on the "qui-vive" for something new. And it all came about by a friend remarking: My birthday is on the same day as Queen Alexandra's. and Mine Is on Queen Victoria's," said another. So the young hostess evolved plan which resulted in her asking 24 of her friends to spend the evening with her and she asked each one to represent in some way a person whose birthday fell on the same date as his or her own.
 In the assembly on the night appoint cd was found most iliustrious com pany. There was Jenny Lind. Mar tha Washington" Mozart" -Longfel- low" Alice Roosevelt" Miles Stand ish.r Mrs. Cleveland" etc. Each per- son told some story or anecdote of the person she represented.

RESTRAINING FOR CHARITY.
Scheme by Which the Wife SYelled
 the Receipts.

the Receipts.
 A West Philadelphia man who de- termined a few days ago to abstain totally from strong drink for a pe- riod was persuaded by his wife into financial arrangement which threatened to work disastrously.
 1.-The agreement. was that every time dthes man refused an inyitati0li to take a drink he was to put the money which he would probably have spent in returning the compli- ment into a pocket reserved for the purpose and give the contents of the pocket to his wife every night. She was to use the money for charity, and for fear the husband might not aways have the exact change to put in the pocket she provided him with number of beans to be used ss counters, valued at five cents each, and to save bookkeeping and memor- izing.
 The first evening the man got home he found 45 cents in cash in his pocket and twenty-three beans. This marked a very exceptional day, the man declared, but the next evening he found his pocket carried one dime and thirty-three beans. Then he alleged that he probably would have refused some of the in- vitations which he had counted even il he had not been on the water wagon, whereupon his wife confessed that she had made arrangements with her father, her brother and her sisters husband to go to the ab- stainer every day as often as possi- ble with an invitation. to drink.
 Since it all went to charity the husband took the joke. but now, though the arrangement is still on, the wife's receipts from the pocket have materially lessened.-Philadel- phia Record.

4 FORMAL ARREST
George w. Perkins, Late of
 New York Life, In Court.
RELEASED OK HABEAS CORPUS WRIT
Counsel For Morgan's Partner Claim. ed That His Restraint Was Wholly Illegal as There Was Ne
 Evidence of Crime.


 NEW YORK, March 29.-George W. Perkins, partner of J. Pierpont Morgan and former vice president of the New York Life Insurance company, was ar rested on a warrant charging grand larceny in the first degree. The war rant was issued by Magistrate Moss, sitting in the Center street court, and the arrest was made by Detective Reardon of the district attorneys of- flee. The charge was based upon Mir Perkins payment of S4S, ,702.50 to the Republican national committee in 1904, as the New York Lifes contribution to the campaign fund of that year.
 Immediately after the arrest of MT. Perkins his counsel, Lewis Delafeld, made application to Justice Green baum, in special term, part two, of the corpus, directing the production forth with of Mir. Perkins before the higher tribunal. Justice Greenbaum granted the writ. The prisoner appeared in su preme court shortly before 1 o'clock, and Justice Greenbaum put over argu- ment on the writ until tomorrow.
 MT. Perkins was paroled in custody of his counsel by Justice Greenbaum.
 In the petition for the writ MT. Per kins said he had been restrained of his liberty by Officer Edward Reardon and that he was not committed or deterred by virtue of the final judgment or de cree of a competent tribunal of civil or criminal jurisdiction or the final order proceeding instituted for any cause ex- cept to punish him for contempt of court. --.4f5'< T .s
 He alleged that his restraint was wholly illegal and that the warrant was void, in that no evidence of any crime or act justifying his arrest had been submitted to the magistrate and that the magistrate was wholly with out Jurisdiction to issue the warrant.
 The date named in the warrant, Dec. 30, 1904, is the date of the transaction brought out in the Armstrong investi- gation, in which Mr. Perkins reim- bursed himself for the payment he ad- vanced to the national committee for the New York Life.
 Later Mir Perkins said he had writ ten to District Attorney Jerome ex- blaming the contribution of S4s. .702.50 to the Republican national committee In 1904 for the Roosevelt campaign fund, on which the charge of grand lar ceny against him is based. Mir. Perkins while chairman of the finance committee of the New York Life paid to Cornelius N Bliss, treas urer of the Republican committee, the sum named by his own personal check. | He did this at the request of the late John A. Mccall, president of the New York Life, who said he was impor- | tuned for contributions and wished to | avoid paying them. -. He was reimbursed by check for 1 he amount drawn by Edmund D. Ran lolph, treasurer of the company, out of he funds of the New York Life.
