A shoemaker of Freiburg. according

The body was exhumed. and there
was the evidence Of the crime just as

POLITICAL DEATHS.


Welcoming the Grim Reaper with .

There have been numerous instances
OF poetical deaths. The Emperor Adr!-

soul as death was casting the seal Of
final silence over his lips, and Marga-
ret Of Austria while almost within the
grasp Of deat In a terrific storm at
sea calmly sat Gown and composed her
epitaph In verse. The ship weathered
the gale. however, and the epitaph was
not needed.
Philip StrOzzl when imprisoned and
awaiting death on the gallows resolved
to commit suicide. Before he killed
himself he carved with the sword upon
which q few minutes later he impalod
himself the following verse from Vir-
gil ON the wall: "Rise some avenger
from my blood"
The Marquis Of M0ntrose when he
was condemned to have his limbs nall

he was sorry that he did not have
enough limbs to nail to all the cities
In Europe, and this he put into beauti-
ful verse as he was walking to his ex-
ecuti0n.

TRIAL MARRIAGES.
Queer Old Custom That Existed
For Ages In Scotland.

For Ages In Scotland.
'lIandfasting" was custom that-ex-
listed for ages in Scotland. The con-
tracing parties met Mt the annual
fairs in their several districts. There
young men chose the maids who best
pleased them. They Joined hands and
by that act became man and wife until
the corresponding day of the following
year If the love and fortunes of the
pairs had prospered during the year
Oh the anniversary of their meeting
they were legally married by the
priest; If all had not been we'll, thea
they parted.
The practice is supposed to have
arisen from the scarcity of clergy. II
the pair decided to part ut the end OF
the twelvemOnth the bride was ut lib
erty to marry another man, her ap-
premiership to matrimony not carry
ing with it any reprOach to her. Such
marriages were by custom made legal.
ANY issue resulting from the union
would in the case of second marriage
be taken by the father and rank as
heir after the children of the marriage
which lasted for life.
Many weddings were unmade at the
end of the year, but it was dangerous

A Contrary Flag.

II ever there was anything In the
world that went by contraries, it is
the Chinese flag. 1t will he recalled
that it is one Of the gayest Of national
standards. The body Of the banner is
Of . pale yellow. In the upper left
hand corner is a small red sun, and
looking at II II q fierce Chinese dragon.
About 1000 years ago. SO the story
runs, the Chinese made war upon the
japanese. They prepared for a great
invasion. As prophecy Of victory
they adopted n standard which IL that
Of the present time. They took the
sun Of Japan and made 1t very small.
This they put In front Of the dragons
mouth to express the idea that the
Chinese dragon would devour the JAP
anese. 1t happened. however, that the
Chinese feet, convey ing an army of
100000 men, was wrecked on its way
to Japan by a great storm, and oil but
three Of the 100000 persisted. The re-
suit Of recent events has not been any
more convincing than the first affair
that the Chinese flag has been cor.
rectly conceived.
