She Had Many suitors.

s# Napoleon III, when he was living In
London; the Duke d Aumale, Lord
Beaconsfield and many other conspic-
uous figures Of the nineteenth century
are on record as having been among
the suitors for the hand Of Miss Bur-
dett-C outts. who afterward became
baroness, and it is doubtful whether
any woman ever received so large a
number of matrimonial offers as the
baroness. In fact they became a posi-
tive nuisance, and in 1847 she was
compelled to bring legal proceedings
against a lawyer Of the name Of Rich
ard Dunn, who, according to the
terms Of the Indictment, had for eight
years prosecuted her with most unwel-
come attentions with a view to matri-
mony. Dunn was sent to prison for
eighteen months, although there Is no
doubt that heswas, while sane In other
matters, perfectly crazy on the subject
Of Miss Burdett-C outts, as she was
then, and particularly on the subject OF
her fortune. Chicago Tribune.

Minneapolis Club to Stop Mon Annoy
ing Women on Streets.
One hundred young men In Mime
apolis, led by Rev. G. L. Morrill,, have
organized themselves into club to
slug Washers, says a Minneapolis dis
patch to the Cincinnati Enquirer. The
minister and his cohorts propose to
drive Washers from the streets Of the
Mill City.
Mayhap some masher will turn the
tables and trim" the crusader who
seeks to administer the fistic rebuke.
but IL the tables should be thus turned
two or more Of the fistic band will lay
for the victorious masher, and ff he is
caught second time insulting girls
he'll get a first class whipping if it
takes half dozen crusaders to do 1t.
DR.. Morrill, organized the 1sluggers'
at service at the Auditorium. where
he berated the practice Of young fell
lows annoying women on the streets.
He declared he intended using his fists
on such offenders. and in response to
an appeal for others to aid him in the
crusade a hundred sturdy members Of
the congregation held up their hands
to signify that they will punch the
stufin'p ont of any masher caught at
large. s=

WEIGH Guests a. Week Ends.

At fashionable week end parties It is
the custom now to weigh the guests on
their arrival and on their departure.
says the Cincinnati Enquirer There
should be a gain Of several pounds
Some hosts judge their cooks skill by
the result of these weight tests. re
the guests lose on a week end visit the
cook is plainly worthless. II they gain
q pound on 50, the man must have
pleased with his concoctions. If their
average gain is three or four pounds,
then the cook is a treasure and may
be promised an advance in 1908. The
weighing custom arose at sandring-
ham, where the king of England SUI
perintends personally the weighing Of
all guests The king boasts that he
has put as much as nine pounds on a
man in a week end visit Of two days N
