The murders that are committed every
day in Kentucky Vill no doubt provoke
the better elements in that State to good
works after awhile. Kentucky has been
far outstripped b 7 Texas in the march of
civilization. Not too much ought to be
expected of Kentucky, however, while it
remains such a near neighbor to Ohio.
It is stated that the New York newspaper
publishers who reduced the prices of their

on which they are printed, are quite sick
of the outcome ot their enterprise. They
are very anxious to undo their blunder,
but are afraid to undertake a retreat lest
their circulations should fall off to such
an extent as to seriously detract from
their advertising patronage.
Attempts to poison patients have been
recently detected at the Eastern Virginia
Lunatic Asylum at Williamsburg.
Poisoned bread was thrown by unknown
parties into the enclosure used bv tbe
lunatics as a promenade ground, and
several dogs died from eating it. Tbe
poisoning of inmates of the Westeru Asy
lum at Staunton, Virginia, last year, adds
additional interest to this attempt. The
most plausible theory is that these ter
rible crimes were the work of some of the
lunaties themselves. The most thorough
investigation by a corps of detectives
failed to unravel the Staunton mystery.
Crimes of Violence in Kentucky.
The action of tbe Kentucky Court of
Appeals in releasing a man who had been
convicted of murder, and one who had
been convicted of embezzling the funds
of the city of Louisville, has aroused a
great deal of indignation in that State.
The leading journals are beginning to
ask if there is any use of going to tbe ex
pense of sustaining courts when crimes
of all kinds are committed with im
punity. There are probably more
crimes of violence committed
In Kentucky in proportion to the popula
tion than ia any other State. Texas used
to lead in crimes of that kind, but the
best elements of society there saw that
the State was being damaged by the great
number of homicides, and they created a
public sentiment against carrying con
cealed weapons and in lavor of
punisbing murderers that speedily
brought about a greatly improved
condition of affairs. The Kentucky
press is largely to blame for the tone of
society there respecting crimes of vio
lence. The unlawful shedding of human
blood has been excused or passed over
without comment, particularly if the
criminal happened to be a person ot in
fluence in his community. However, a
loose administration of the criminal law,
so far as jiersons of prominence or wealth
are concerned, is not confined to Kentucky.
There are hangings in someone of the
States about every Friday, but the vic
tims are generally negroes or white men
who have no money and no influential
friends. All the murders, however, are
not committed by these friendless and
moneyless wretches. The murderers who
have influential or rich friends, or are
themselves well provided with money,
seldom or never pay the penalty of their
crimes. Judges and juries almost always
find loopholes through which they are
allowed to escape. In order to let
such n>en escape precedent after precedent
is ina<!e,until it is about impossible to con
vict a murderer who makes a stubborn
defense. The Courier-Journal thinks that
Kentucky had bett-r get rid of her crimi
nal laws and her courts and begin anew
the work ot building up a criminal code.
The Judges of the higher courts by their
decisions have destroyed the fibre of the
criminal laws, and they are comparative
ly worthless. The Judges, however,
have only responded to the prevailing
sentiment of society which encourages
the taking of human lite for extremely
slight causes.
The Georgia Delegation.
The convention at Atlanta yesterday,
to choose delegates to the National Con
vention at Chicago did its work quickly
and harmoniously. The delegates-at
large and the district delegates were se
lected without any regard to their views
on the tariff, and no attempt was made to
take the sense of the convention on the
question of tariff reform. On this
important question the delegates are,
doubtless, divided, and when it comes
up before the National Convention, as it
most likely will, they will be found acting
inharmoniously. There is nothing more
certain than that the sentiment of this
State is strongly in tavor of an immediate
and radical reform in the tariff, and that
sentiment ought to find emphatic expres
sion at Chicago if there should be an
attempt to commit the party to any other
tariff doctrine than that declared in the
platforms of 18TG and 1880. The delegates
with one exception are reported to
be in favor of Cleveland and McDonald
for President and Vice President. This
appears to be the popular ticket at present.
If New York is united in presenting
Cleveland’s name it is probable that he
will lie named for President because New
York is considered necessary to Demo
cratic success, and there is, therefore, a
very general disposition to allow that
State to name the Presidential candi
date.
The Brown-Ingalls Episode.
The attack which Senator Ingalls made
on Senator Brown Monday and continued
on Tuesday will be generally character
ized as brutal. The Senate has been re
markably free from exhibitions of bad
temper and harsh language during the
last year or two. It is a pity that Mr.
Ingalls could not have said what he had
to sav in more decent language. It does
not appear that Mr. Brown had auy in
tention to reflect upon Mr. Ingalls in any
way. He did what a great many Sena
tors do—he revised the report of the
speech before it \vas sent to the
printer, and in making the revision he
wrote in some words which he thought
he uttered in debate. These words hap
pened to be susceptible, in Mr. Ingalls’
opinion, of an interpretation offensive to
him. Ingalls. Mr. Ingalls jumped at the
conclusion that the use of the words was
intended to tic offensive, and proceeded to
make himself as offensive to Mr. Brown
aud th<? Senate as he possibly could. It
is doubtful if Mr. Ingalls’ course in this
matter brings him any applause. The
best sentfYhent of the country is against
such exhibitions as that which he made
of himself. It is undoubtedly bad prac
tice to allow Senators the privilege of
adding to or taking from their speeches
when preparing them for the printer, but
no Senator ought to be called a forger for
doing what custom sanctions. Mr. Brown
may not have been as discreet as he
ought to have been in amending the
Reconi, but his indiscretion, if such he
committed, did not justify Mr. Ingalls’
brutality.
>1 r. Wicker’s Campaign Work.
Mr. Wicker, ex-Collector of Key West,
is authority fur the statement that the
Cubans of that town are enthusiastically
in favor of Blaine, because they think
that if he becomes President a determined
attempt will be made by this government
to get possession of Cuba by purchase or
otherwise. Mr. Wicker says that Blaine
expressed the opinion to him that Cuba
was worth $500,000,000 to this country.
It doesn't seem to be worth that much to
Spain. In fact, the condition of affairs
on the island is not at all
encouraging. The sugar planters are
unable to meet their legitimate expenses
and bankruptcy stares them in the face.
Business is depressed and business men
see little else than ruin in tbe near future.
If the plantations do not pay with slave
labor it is hardly probable that they would
with free labor. It is difficult to see how
Cuba would be worth anything to this
country. It has two things which we do
not want—negroes and yellow fever. We
have now more negroes than we know
wbat to do with, and there is no de
sire anywhere to add to the
number. The Blaine shouters, however,
will endeavor to make it appear, doubt
less, that Cuba would be a great acquisi
tion for the purpose of getting the Cuban
vote at Key West if for no other. There
are several thousand Cuban voters at that
place, and if the Republicans make a big
effort to carry Florida the Cuban vote
will be well worth looking alter. Mr.
Wicker is evidently working for rein
statement.
The New Y'ork Convention.
Gov. Cleveland, it seems, has the New
York delegation. According to our dis
patches the delegation stands three to one
for him, and under a rule adopted by the
convention the delegation must vote as a
unit. With New York solid, the chances
of his nomination are largely in his
favor. The drift of popular senti
ment has been strongly towards
him ever since the publication
of Mr. Tilden’s letter, and there is rea
son to believe that his popularity will
continue to increase from now until the
meeting of the Chicago Convention. If
he should be nominated for President, it
is very probable that McDonald will be
nominated for the second place. Indiana
—McDonald’s State—is very doubtful,
and. as McDonald is popular, he would
strengthen the ticket greatly.
Miss Annie, a daughter of Senator
Dawes, of Massachusetts, is something ot
a politician, she has written an article
advocating the formation of a Jewish re
public in Palestine. She Is a great Ad
mirer of this wonderful race. Miss
Dawes’ proposition is not by any means
new. As the Jews, who are scattered all
over the world, however, are doing better
everywhere else than in Palestine, it is
not likely that they will want to invest
heavily in that country for a long time to
• jme.
Independent Republicans.
There is not much reason to expect that
the Independent Republicans who refuse
to support Blaine and Logan will succeed
in effecting an organization and nomina
ting a Presidential ticket. If the Demo
crats make a ticket that Is satisfactory
to them, the majority of them will, in all
probability, vote for it, and if the Demo
cratic ticket is not satisfactory they will
content themselves with growling at both
parties and remaining away from the
polls. It would be a matter of considerable
difficultvfor them toeffect an organization
and name a ticket. There is a great lack
of harmony among them respecting the
kind of a platform of principles that ought
to be adopted. Some of them are tariff
reformers and others are civil service re
formers, but the reformers do not consti
tute a very large majority. There is only
one thing on w hich they are united, and
that is opposition to Blaine. It will not
do, therefore, for the Democrats to make
a nomination with the view of catching
the Independent Republican vote. To
make concessions to that vote would
show weakness and would do the party
more harm than good. What the Demo
cratic party ought to do is to make a
platform and nominations just as if there
were no dissatisfied Republicans. A sincere
platform and honest nominees will do far
more towar.ls giving the party success
than the entire Independent vote. The
Democratic opportunity for success does
not consist in the disaffection in the Re
publican ranks, but in the chance to pre
sent a platform and a ticket that will ap
ical strongly to the conscience and com
mon sense of the people. The people
want a platform that is sincere and a
ticket for which no apology is necessary.
Let the Democratic party meet this want
and many Republican votes other than
those which are classed as independent
and dissatisfied will be obtained.
Capt. Nordenskjold wants to get up an
exploring expedition to tbe South l’ole.
It lias been over forty years since tbe
South Polar regions have been visited by
man, and very little is known regarding
the antarctic world. While ships have
reached a point w ithin 490 miles of the
North Pole, none have been nearer than
2,000 miles to the South Pole. Capt. Nor
denskjold expects to discover a race of
people analagous to the Esquimaux in the
Southern Hemisphere, and to open up new
whale and seal fisheries that will prove of
immense value. He has appealed to the
British Government to fit out his expedi
tion, and, as England always has a keen
eye to business, no doubt she will comply
with his request, on the condition that she
6hall have the lion’s 6hare of all valuable
discoveries that may be made.
Turkeys are being utilized in California
in catching the slugs that are attacking
the grape t ines. Turkeys have frequent
ly saved crops from destruction by insects
in many parts of the country. It every
cotton planter would keep a large flock of
them and turn them into the cotton fields
when the cotton worm first makes its ap
pearance, the question regarding the most
effective treatment of this destructive
pest would probably soon be settled. The
turning of the cotton worm into an excel
lent article of human food would be much
better than poisoning it with paris-green,
or allowing it to destroy the crops entire
ly. Every planter ought to be able to
raise from fifty to a hundred turkeys
every year, and make them pay a hand
some little profit on the expense and labor
they occasion.
Barnum refuses-to pay the offered SSOO
- for a poem on the white elephant,

convince tbe people that Barnum’s white
elephant is a fraud of the first water. In
the meantime the Prince of Humbugs is
getting in a good deal of free advertising.
The Times-Democrat is about the only
newspaper in the South that is
disposed to encourage rising young
poets. Its columns are always open

its pocket-book opens to them is another
question entirely.
CURRENT COMMENT.
Bayard’s Loyalty.
Washington Post (Dem
No construction can be put upon the Dover
or funding bill speech, which would lose a
solitary Democratic or Independent vote. The
men who can be convinced that Mr. Bayard
ever even meditated disloyalty have already
made up their minds to vote for Blaine and
Logan.
Another Calamity Threatened.
MontjomeQ Advertiser (Dem.).
Among other calamities threatening the Re
publican party just now is the intimation that
Grant will take the stump for Blaine. We
give the leaders of the party credit for more
judgment than that. The modern colossus of
stock-jobbery addressing an audience of busi
ness men would be a spectacle.
Thurman's Soul-Stirring Bandana.
Chicago Times ( Ind .)•
The Ohio delegation is promised “solid f#r
Thurman.” Mr. Tliurmsn should by no
means be left out of consideration. His soul
stirring bandana would divide popular en
thusiasm with tlie Blaine plumes, and his
record on railroad legislation would finely
contrast with that of Blaine.
A Practical Joke.
Washington Star (Rep.)
Washington refuses to take the Flower can
didacy seriously,and vet it should beremem
bered that at one stage in the game the Keifer
candidacy for the Speakership was thought
the biggest joke of the season. But it turned
out to be a very practical jest and cracked at
the expense of the Republican party.
Will Go for Reform.
Boston Itlobe (Dem.).
Now party lines are lax, and disgust with
the Republican party has grown with twelve
more years of corrupt and centralizing gov
ernment. Wherever the independent element
exists in anv degree it has thrown itself with
the Democratic party. It belongs in the Dem
ocratic uarty, fr that is the party of reform,
and next fail will undoubtedly find its vote
counted for the Democratic ticket.

Philadelphia is happy in the possession
of the handsomest squad of policemen in the
world. They are stationed on Chestnut
street, and are described as being models of
human loveliness. Their uniforms dazzle
with brass buttons, and in place of the .caps
there are helmets. The ugly club has gone,
and each officer swings in his white gloved
hand a polished walnut cane. They wear
buttonhole bouquets and perfume their seven
dollar silk handkerchiefs with the finest co
logne. Their dainty feet are incased in
patent leattier shoes witli French heels, and
they pose on the street corners. They are
learning to wear their hair long aud to smoke

The New London (Conn.) Day relates the fol
lowing incident: “A narrow escape and a
heroic rescue occurred on the Northern Rail
road bridge this side of Montvillc last Tues
day night. As the train swept around the
curve the engineer saw a man and woman on
the bridge directlv in his track. There was
no chance to use the brakes, and tie expected
to have a frightful accident to report. J ust
as he was about to close his eyes to shut out
the tragedy, the man caught up the woman,
threw her over the rail into the water below
and vaulted over himself aud rescued the
woman from drowning. Those who witnessed
this episode say they never aw a braver or
cooler act in ttieir lives.”
The Cooper Union, New York, has just pre
sented its twenty-fifth annual report. Its
revenue for the past year amounted to $53,-
984 5f and expenditures to $53,984 57. The
trustees have no doubt of the propriety or
necessity of enlarging tbe work of the institu
tion, and if tiie portion of the building now
rented could all be appropriated for purposes of
instruction it would double existing facilities,
but they add that the annual expenditure in
volved in such enlargement would require an
endowment of $1,000,000 in addition to the pres,
ent funds of the institution. The children of
Mr. Cooper have already notified the trustees
that, in accordance with what they under
stood to be Mr. Cooper’sfinal wishes, they will
contribute the sum of SIOO,OOO in addition to
the bequest of SIOO,OOO contained in his will.
JUST as the public was beginning to forget

tried in Baris three months ago for lodging
two revolver bullets in the chest of Jules
Courtois. her faithless lover, and who was, of
course, acquitted bv a tender-hearted French

Juies Courtois. the young cook who deserted
her to marry his cousin, to whom he had been
engaged for years, only left the hospital,
where he had been for a week or two hover
ing between life and death, some days ago;
and the first use he has made of his liberty has
been to propose for the hand that has added
an ounce or so of lead to his anatomy for the
remainder of his days, the surgeons having
failed to extract one of the bullets. “All s
well that ends well” is the comment of a
French paper on this unexpected denouement
of the tragi-comedy.
A curious but well authenticated story
comes from South Hannibal, in Fulton coun
ty, N. Y. Alexander Scott, a resident for
ninety years ot the village, died last Wednes
day evening. After the fnneral services Sat
urday afternoon, the friends gathered aliout
the coffin to lake their last view of the dead
man, when, to their amazement, the corpse
shook like aperson having a chill. The incident
created much commotion, 1 ut preparations
for the burial went on. As the coffin was be
ing lowered into the grave, certain friends of
the deceased standing by earnestly declared
that they saw his hands move, and insisted
upun an’ investigation. The corpse was ac
cordingly taken to a neighboring iiou-e. Phy
sicians made a very careful examination, hut
were unable to Bml any evidence of life. The
body was then taken hack to the graveyard
and buried, not, however, without many mis
givings ou the part of those who had wit
nessed the strange incidents.

It appear- that for the last eighteen years a
man aged fortv, and described as immensely
stout, with a beard, black as ink, reaching
down to Itis waist, and nails of terrible length,
has been living in a small and solitary house,
or rather hovel. He was its sole inhabitant;
hut it turns out that he has a father and more
than one brother. He has never allowed them,
however, or any one, else to see him during
his voluntary imprisonment. The hovel con
tained no he'd or utensil of any kind except a
box, on which he sat. The father took his
food to him every twentv-four hours regularly,
pu-hing it through a hole in the door, which
door was Dever opened. The strange crea
ture’s only garment was a shirt, which lie
changed at the end of every five years. His
existence would never have been suspected
hut for the inundation; the water sapped the
foundations of the building and destroyed it,
the man betrg saved by a brother and the
Civil Guards, who went to his assistance with
a rope. The man being asked why lie lived in

God to do so.

GRADUATING GIRLS.
Commencement Exercises of the Mount
De Hales Academy.
Macon, June 17. — I had this evening
the pleasure of attending the commence
ment exercises of Mount de Sales Acade
my, and was surprised to find there as
sembled so large an audience. Tiie pro
gramme was a most attractive one, and
was very successfully, indeed, delightful
ly carried out.
* The salutatory address was delivered
by Miss J. Struppa, of Columbus, Ga.,
and this young lady certainly displayed
elocutionary talent of no mean order, and
won deserved applause, which was again
accorded her later in the evening when
she recited with fine effect the poem,
“Where’s Annette?”
A vocal duet, “Noel,” by Gounod, was
grandly rendered by the Misses A. Peter,
maun and T. Grant. Miss Petermann is
front I’alatka, Fla., and possesses the
most charming voice it has been my for
tune to listen to for many a day, being
extremely sweet, clear and flexible, and
of very wide range. Her high notes are
taken without apparent effort, and are
effective in the highest degree.
A solo, “The Flower Girl,” was
admirably sung by little Miss Sa
nella Cooley, ” who was followed
by a well trained quartette of voices of
unusual excellence—Misses Petermann,
F, Cooley, Struppa and Grant. The excel
lent marching'of the little ones during
the singing of these young ladies, was a
pleasing feature ol the performance.
A dramatic sketch entitled 1 “Coaina,
or The Indian’s Trust,” was well played
by some nineteen of the young ladies,
Miss Fanny Cooley, of Eatonton, assum
ing the title role.
Miss Petermann sang the solo, “Glide,
Gondola, Glide,” with admirable expres
sion, and was followed by the quartette,
who sang Rossini’s “Charity.”
An instrumental quartette was capital
ly given by the Misses M. Deacy, K.
O’Connell, T. Grant and M. Nelligan, and
the musical programme was brought to a
close by the vocal quartette “Good
Night,” after which the Right Rev. Bishop
Gross distributed premiums, medals and
honors. The “Valedictory” wa9 deliv
ered by Miss M. Deacy, of Savannah, and
the young lady created a very favorable
impression.
There were but two graduates—the
Misses Rosa Catherwood and M. Deacy—
both of Savannah, who received their gold
medals and rolls of parchment at the
hands of their Bishop, and so bade fare-i*
well to school life and the halcyon days of
girlhood.

CYNTHIA PARKER’S LIFE.
A White Girl Who Became the Mother
of a Comanche Chief.
A few days ago, says a Fort Worth,
Texas, special to the New York Sun, there
appeared in one of the city papers an ad
vertisement saying that a ComaHcbe Chief
living near Fort Sill wanted to obtain a
photograph of his mother, Cynthia-Ann
Parker, and asking as a special favor that
any one knowing where such a portrait
could be had would communicate with
him. A. F. Corning, of McLennan county,
saw the advertisement, and at once wrote
to the newspaper in question that he
could furnish the picture. He happened
to know that an old daguerreotype of the
woman was in existence in Waco, and
taking this to an artist he had several
copies made, one of which was sent to the
chief. ...
Cynthia Ann Parker was the heroine of
one of the most touching romances of the
Texas border. Her parents and grand
parents were among the pioneers of the
State. Her grandfather, Col. Parker, af
ter whom Parker county was named, was
a noted man in his day. The Parkers
lived ou an exposed frontier, and, though
formidable in Indian warfare, they
were frequent sufferers from raids
by savages. About the year 1840,
when the Comanches swept over that
part of the State, the Parkers lost nearly
all their property, and eventually some
of them were killed, and Cynthia, then 9
years of age, was taken prisoner. Many
efforts were made to rescue her, but all
without avail. Several times parties of
brave men invaded the camp of the red
skins and searched for the child, and, on
at least two occasions, lives were lost in
the effort to return her to her family.
Every device was resorted to to gain in
formation of her. Sometimes for months
it would be believed that she had been
killed, but finally a vague story would
gain circulation to the effect that a white
girl had been seen with a roving band,
and search would he renewed.
When Cynthia was taken captive the
savages placed her in charge of their wom
en, and the child, finding that she was
to be well treated, soon came to enjoy the
wildlife which she led, and to look upon
the Indians as her natural friends.
When her clothing was worn out she
adopted the savage costume. She learned
their language, took part in their games,
and eventually, having become a sturdy
woman, joined them on some of their
raids. Ten years after her capture found
her the wife of the war chief of the tribe,
apparently as conteuted with her lot as
any of the other women who were her
constant associates.
Some years after her marriage, when
the Comanches were at peace with the
settlers, a party of white men entered
their camp one day and found the missing
girl, now grown out of their recollection
almost. Two or three children played
about her knee, looking much like the
other youthlul aborigines, save that they
were neater in appearance and much more
carefully watched by their mother. When
they questioned her they found that she had
almost forgotten her native tongue, and it
wa9 with the utmost difficulty she could
make them understand. She inquired after
her relatives, and asked many questions
about the white people generally; but in
‘reply to a suggestion that she should ac
company them to her former home she
6aid she was happily married, had a good
husband and nice children, and could not
leave them. She had matte their home her
home, and no other place on earth would
be other than a prison to her. They left
her very much cast down, and on return
ing to the settlement spread her story far
and wide.
For a time the interest in her case was
revived, and many old settlers who knew
her father and grandfather threatened to
make war on the Comanches and take her
away from them. Nothing could con
vince these old settlers that Cynthia
would stay with the Indians of her own
free will, and it was only after the most
emphatic protests by the men who had
seen her in her savage home that her
would-be deliverers abandoned the idea of
taking her Ly force. She was finally re
captured most unexpectedly. Being out
with a war party of the Comanches in the
fall of 1858, she was cut off from the
braves in some manner by Gen. L. S.
Ross, of Waco, and taken prisoner in
company with several other women. At
first no one recognized her, hut after being
taken to Canton, Van Zandt county, some
close observers expressed the opinion
that she was a white woman. Then the
story was circulated that she was Cyn
thia Parker, traditions of whose fate still
existed, and her brothers and venerable
grandfather were sent for. The brothers
looked at her long and earnestly, but
could not remember her. The old man,
however, identified her as the stolen girl,
and she finally admitted that he was right.
There was great joy over her recovery on
the part of her relatives and their friends,
but not so with her. She vainly tried to
escape, and passed many' tears.
She had with her at the time of her cap
ture her youngest child, 2 years of age,
the two eldest having been leit at home.
The little one had a smattering of Span
ish, and the mother spoke that language,
as well as the Indian tongue, fluently, but
neither knew anything of English. After
a while Cynthia and iter child accom
panied her brothers to their home in Park
er county, where she and the babe soon
pined away and died.
Her two boys, who had been left with
the tribe, grew to be stalwart warriors,
handsome in form and feature, and more
than ordinarily intelligent. One of them
is now the chief of the Comanches in the
Indian Territory, a man of great influ
ence with both the Indians and the whites,
and under whose guidance his tribe has
made decided progress in civilization.
He remembers his mother a flection ateiy,
and his advertisement in the Fort Worth
paper was the result of his having heard
that just before she died she had her pic
ture taken. He did not know where to
look for the likeness, hut, determining to
obtain it, or a copy ot it, if possible, ad
vertised in the Texas papers until he
found it. He expressed great joy when
the picture was placed in his hands.
A DEPUTY CORONER’S FAMILY.
A Moving Day Pageant which Attracted
Curious Spectators.
Deputy Coroner Messemer moved re
cently from No. 144 Second avenue to No.
150 in the same thoroughfare, says the
New York Times of the 14th inst. There
is no special reason why Deputy Coroner
Messemer’s change of residence should be
noted save for the interest it excited and
the crowd it drew. The crowd began
to gather when a cartinan came down
the front steps of the old residence
with a human skeleton under one arm
and the frame-work of a monkey under
the other. These were taken to the new
residence. Tho next trip the cart
man carried one end of the osse
ous structure of a horse, and an
assistant carried the other extremity.
Dogs and cats, all in the tame shad
owy state, went over with birds and
beasts of other kinds. A liva fat dog
without any spleen, and a cat with
paralysis of the face, due to the removal
of the facial nerves, strolled over by them
selves. A pigeon which had lost the power
of co-ordinating its movements because
of the removal of one of the hemis
pheres of the brain, and enjoyed
flying backward when it really
wanted to go forward, was taken over
by the Deputy Coroner himself, together
with a rabbit which took nourishment
through a silver tube inserted in its
stomach, A woman made of leather
brought up the roar of the expedition. She
refused to tell whether or not the party
was the first seotion of the resurrection,
or the occupants of the port forward state
room of Mr. Noah’s ark.
A rumor that the Deputy Coroner called
on Inspector Murray for a detail of police
to protect him from the hands of the mob
could not be verified.
An Expensive Bootjack.
A Belgian hotel keeper is especially
“sweet” on Russian customers. “They
are large, see you,” he states; “they dis
pute not the accounts. Once lodged him.
self with me a Count ,” he relates.
“When he arrived I was not; I returned
home from my circle; my wife was all
frightened. She cry to me, ‘Go speak to
the Mister Russian; he beat all the wait
ers; he is in anger; but what an anger?’
I asked of what it is question. One tells
me the Count he insists that the waiters
take him off his boots. They are brave
Belgians; they will not. He strike them
and'say stern follies. I had courage, I;
I feared me not of him. Igo to his room,
and say, ‘Mr. the Count, I am the pro
prietor; what will you?’ ‘Sir,’ he
say. ‘1 will thank you pull me
off the boots J’ My first sentiment is de
lui allonger une claque—to give him a
smack; but I master myself and say,
‘Wait only two minutes, Mr. the Count;
I have an order to give.’ So I run to my
wife and tell her to give me my dress-coat,
my gloves graypearl, my gibus, my pan
taloons black. In two minutes behold
me, of great tenue. I go back to the
Count; I say him, ‘Only in dress of gala
can the proprietor of this hotel take off
v#ur boots,’ and, my faith, I take him
them off in one, two! He raise himself,
bow himself, and thank me very politely.
By and by, in three weeks, he ask for his
bill. I inscribe on it as extra, ‘To taking
off Mr. the Count’s hoots by the proprie
tor in a dress coat and gray-pea’ 1 gloves,
100 francs.’ He frown his eyebrows when
he read that, but he not say one word.
He pay that addition integrally. Never
he ask me more to serve him at a pull
boot.”
