SHE DROPS THE DIVORCE
Mrs. James f. Goddard VIII Not Seel
Legal Separation from Her
Husband.

Considerable surprise was Great
ed this morning when Il was learn
I'd that Mrs. James +. Goddard,
wife of the well known plastering
contractor who was arrested a few
days ago on the charge of burglary,
will drop her divorce proceedings
against her husband and will con-
tinue, it is said to live with him. Mrs.
Goddard had already filed her suit
with the county court but this morn
ing she had the suit formally with
drawn. Mrs. Goddard charged that
Goddard had been brutal to her and
had been guilty of infidelity. Why
she suddenly changed her mind re-
garding the matter and decided to
withdraw the suit has not been pub
lically explained, but 1t is believed
that the friends of Mr.. Goddard
who secured his release from the
county jail were instrumental in
getting Mrs. Goddard to drop the di-
vorce proceedings.
The dismissal of the charge of bur
glary against Goddard, by Deputy
District Attorney Fry has created
not little unfavorable comment,
although many of Goddard's friends
claim that it was the proper thing

Jaynes Brothers Office which it is
charged was burglarized last DC
tober by Goddard and thirteen valu-
able watches secured, which watches
were found In Goddard's possession,
agreed to drop the prosecution as he
had regained possession of all the
stolen watches but one which has
not been located. AS a result. late
Saturday night the case was dismiss
ed and Goddard walked from the
county Jail at the order of the deputy
district attorney, a free man. The Sen
tinel announced Saturday that God
dard would be released in this man
er. Goddard is still in the city and
1t Is reported that he expects to re-
main here and finish up his numer-
Gus contracts for plastering. 1t had
been generally believed that he would
leave the city soon after being releas-
ed. Just what plans he has made are
not known.
1t seems that Goddard's story that
he secured the watches from man
who wanted to borrow $50 on them
but who never returned for them and
as a result Goddard. as he says. kept
them in his possession fearing to re-
turn them to Jaynes, was accepted as

A conscientious Psrson.

A wedding took place a short
time back in a large town in the
north of England, the service being
conducted by rather eccentric vic
ar. Two days after the ceremony
he called at the house of the bride
groom's mother, but she happened
to be out, so be said he would call
again, which he did later in the day,
carrying two large bags under his
arm.
This time he found her in. So
he began by asking them to clear
the table a little. Then he opened
the green bags, from which he took
the registers. These he opened and
in a most solemn tone said:
"Mrs. Williams, you have forgot
ten to dot the 'i' in Elizabeth"
The family breathed once more.

SACRED HORNS.
The Queer Adorument Of a Peculiar
Chinese People.

Adjoining the Chinese prefecture
- Chienchang Is deep gully
barred by a river which no China
man is permitted to pass until he
inds bail for his good conduct in
Lolodom.
The Lolos are a slim, well made,
muscular race. with oval reddish
brown faces. high cheek bones and
pointed chins, from which the beard
has been carefully pmcked They
are far taller than the Chinese and
indeed than any European race. but
their marked popularity is the horn.
Every male adult gathers his hair in
knot over his forehead aud then
twists IL up in a cotton cloth SO
that 1t resembles the horn of a uni
corn
The horn is considered sacred.
and even if a Lolo settles in Chinese
territory and grows a pigtal he sull
preserves his horn. The Lolo
mans principal garment is a wide
sleeveless mantle Of red or black
felt tied about the neck and de-
>ccndlng almost TO the heels. The
trousers are of Chinese cotton with
felt bandages. No shoes are worn.
but n conical hat of woven bamboo
covered with felt furnishes head
covering rs well as an umbrella.
The Chinese divide the I.olos into
two classes. which they call respec-
lively "black bones and white
bones" the first being the mobiles
and the latter their vassals and re-
tanners There is also third class
of captive Chinese and their de-
scendants, called "watzu." practical
~ slaves, who are tattooed on the
forehead with the mark Of their
tribe.
The Lolos never marry except in
their own tribes, captive Chinese
women being given TO their bonds
men. The marriage Of a BLACK
bone" Is time of great festivities
and many banquets. The betrothal
Is celebrated and ratified bv the
present of the husband TO the
brides family of pig and three
vessels of wine.
On the wedding morn the bride is
richly dressed with many orna-
ments. She is expected to weep
profusely, whether she feels so in
clined or not In the midst of her
tears the groom's relatives and
friends dash in. seize the bride, the
best man carries her out of doors
on his shoulders. she is clapped on a
horse and hurried of TO her new
home. Here she finds horses. cat

e-oom's family. while her own peo-
pie send clothes. ornaments and

ton among the Lolos, and woman

tribes.-New York Herald.

Signs and Tokens That Sway the Men
Who Work Aboard Ship.

There is a general idea that the
sailor labors under more than the
one pet superstition popular tradi-
tion assigns to each individual. Mr..
y. ID. J. Kelley, slthough he de-
clares that ''tars' are no more su-
perstihous than any Of their equals
in training and opportunities, cites
in "The Sims Company" many Of
the signs and tokens in which those
who go down TO the sea in ships"
put their faith.
In the past superstition was a
part of every ship. 1t entered into
Its keel, climbed to its flags, ran at
Its launching, controlled its crew
and cargo, evoked portents and gov
erned its ventures and arrivals.
A bit of stolen wood was always
mortised into the keel to make a
ship sail fast. 4 silver coin was
placed in the mainmast step to in
sure lucky ventures. The modern
christening by the wine bottle arose
from the ancient libations poured
on the deck by priests.
On a sailing ship lawyers, women
and the clergy are looked upon with
disfavor, as they are supposed to
bring i'll luck. Every black cat that
comes on board carries a gale in
her tail" Whistling is much against
the proprieties of sea life. If one
whistles for a breeze he is o.ly too
apt to bring tornado.
Ship bells are blessed, and to this
day, if mistake is made in striking
one, it is immediately struck back
ward to break the spell. The belief
in the desertion OF sinking ship
by rats is founded on reason, for
rats like to be dry footed, and when
vessel is unsafe it becomes leaky
under deck and too wet for the
creatures comfort.
Figureheads were first images of
gods, then of saints and sea heroes.

on their bows, for: mo have two
eyes, how can see? No see, how

With the electricity finding new uses daily and with a rapid extension of electric energy for power, traction, and many other employments, there is small hope that the poor old world will be able to curtail its copper bill to any important extent, and every reason to believe that the worlds copper, ten years hence, will cost consider ably more than the worlds iron and steel cost ten years ago.
