CASE FOB M. ZOLA.  The great French realist has lately brough into prominence his views on the Lourdes Miracles. K. Zola appears to say that all these cures are explicable on purely scientific grounds. He, then, would no doubt fully endorse the following •• miracle," which in directly traced to scientific muse. A lady crippled and totally incapacitated for over eight years, and given over by the best medical skill as utterly hopeless, discarded her crutches, and recovered her health, under circumstances so striking that the Midland Free Press ' made a fell enquiry as to the genuineness of the case. The story is vouched for in every particular, and has been verified by the most unsparing independent investigation. The patient (for this, unlike most miracles, admits of ohapterand.verse verification) was Mrs. Cardwell, 6, Avenue-buildings, Cavendish-road, Aylestone-park, Leicester. Eight years ago last Christmas, (was compelled to go with crutches," she said. "I couldn't use my legs at all. I was in Leicester Infirmary nearly five years ago, was an out-patient afterwards for eight months, and an in-patient at Bristol Infirmary Hospital, also." She was in a perfectly helpless state, until one day she was induced to try the effect of Dr. Williams' Pink Pill. for Pale People. That was about eight months ago, and the results have been aptly described as miraculous. She improved from the first, and the paralysis in her legs began to pass away. "I never wore a shoe for years," she and now I can sit at my ease or move about freely. I was never warm, but now lam comfortable and well. My health is better every way I could not go without crutches, but after taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for a time I mild do without."

THN OLAIMMONT CONTUXI. The Claremont Costume; will be found a most convenient and well arranged dress for the spring wear, its chief feature being the absence of all trimmings likely to get out of order quietly. The skirt is allowed just to touch the ground, and is out short with the kilt added on; no skirt being required underneath, but the kilt 'Mould be lined throughout. The tunic is out long, and the front tablier-shaped, with a deep fold of fancy material at the edge. The tablier is draped on each side in three deep pleat', kept in plum by • few invisible stitches. The beak of the tunic as composed of the figured material with • narrow band all round of the plain goods, and is allowed to fall ,in natural folds over the skirt. The front of the tunic is kept well beak in its place with two small pieces of elastic sewn ow from side to side. The long jacket-bodice fastens in front—single-breasted—and the back is eat with five seams. A deep fold of the fancy material forms a trimming round the jacket, with some imitation pockets on either side, and tarn-down collar at the neat. The cost-sleeve has a plain deep oaf/ at the wrist. Any light woollen material with fancy goods for trimming, or the costume might be composed of the same material in two shades, requiring 11 yards of the plain and 4 yards of fancy each 25 inehes wide.  An alarming accident occurred on Wednesday night at a meeting held in support of the Liberal candidates in fit. Andrew's Hall, Glasgow. There was considerable disturbance in the hall, and on a number of persona in the nide gallery standing up to ascertain the cause the front of the gallery gave way, and about eighty or a hundred persons were precipitated on to the densley-packed mass below. Fortunately the people maintained their coolness, and there was nothing approaching a panic, or the most terrible results might have occurred. As it is, one man was seriously injured. MORTALITY AND SIIICIDM TN THE GERMAN Ann-v.—Exclusive of the whole of the Bavarian troops, the German army lost by death in the month of January last 180 men. That there is something still wanting in the conditions of the German service to make it tolerable to many of the rank and file appears to be indicated by the fact that no fewer than 22 men and officers committed suicide in the course of the single month in question. Of the 180 deaths, therefore, only 108 are referable to causes other than suicide.

SAD DEATH OF A HULL JOURNALIST.  lii. with great regret we announce the desth of • far.G.orge Ltualueter, formerly of Hull, by his own I hand. as telegruo teen been received as follow: " Mr. George Laneaster, a journalist, who entered the London office of the Dundee ddoirtiser a. subeditor in the besinning of 1890, was found dead on Monday morning about four o'clock, having idiot himult with a pietol behind the left ear. His appearance and aonduot for time bad been strange, but hi. colleague, did not surmtee thet there was any danger of what had occurred.

The <looter aides that he had been suffering for • long time from not toning of the brain." Mr. Lancaster will be remembered in Hull as probably the moat original literary huotooriat which the town has pralnoed, but us memory will also be cheriehed by those who knew him as that of a most kindly, gentle, and genial man. He was born, we believe' at Button, and in early life worked in the office of Mr. Sykes, iron merchant. About twenty year. ago, he went out to Canada, where, for eeveral years, he incepted • echolutio position. But his bent WIDI always towards literature, and shortly after hie return to Hull he purchased and edited a eatirical paper, the Hull 'Veltman. In ISM Mr. Lemueloe joined the staff of the Eastern Morning News, where ice remained until 1089. Last year be went to Lon. don to take up the sub.editorial duties of the Dundee Advertiser. This ie not the Gumucio, nor is it the glue to speak critically of Mr. Lancaster's liter•ry work: The beet known of it ii contained in three small volume. of verse, of which "The Legend. of Lowgate" wu the latbet.
