The sarcophagus of Roger of Toscany,
Bishop of Lausanne, who was buried in Lau
Ramie Cathedral in 1220. was opened a few
weeks ago. The body was almost intact, the
features wore perfectly recognizable, and the
six and a half centuries had not sufficed to
destroy the texture of his episcopal robes.
A Cabinet Minister is a! ways in attendance
upon the Queen when she is out of England.
Members of the Cabinet take the duty by
turns. The Minister in attendance is required
to be almost all the time within call, as the
Queen may need his counsel at any moment.
When he does not dine with her he may dine
alone or with the Lord in Waiting.
Farmer Dorsey undertook to replace the
tire on a wagon wheel at Mercer, Va. The
ordinary pro ess is to expand the tire by
heating it, and slip it into place, where it
tightens by contraction as it cools. But in
this instance there was trouble at every stage
of the work. The lire was not hot enough,
the tire was not a true circle, and after spend
ing half a day fruitlessly at the job, the ex
asperated man committed suicide.
Henry Holtenburg had black hair and a
ruddy complexion when he married Miss
Schwarz, at Nashville, a year ago. She sup
posed he was about forty, though he made no
statement on that point. The honeymoon
was scarcely over before his hair became
gray, his cheeks lost their color, and he
showed at least sixty years. The fact was
that he had discontinued the use of dye and
rouge. The angry wife wanted to sue for
divorce, but the lawyer told her that Use
grounds were not sufficient. The worst she
could do was to desert him, which she lost no
time in doing.
Mrs. Anna Stiles had twoneghbors, at south
Windsor, Cenn., whom she hated, and sent
the in two packages of poisoned candy by
mail. Two families were made dangerously
ill. hut only one life was lost. Mrs. Stiles
was arrested, but before the time for her trial
she became insame. That was nine years
nsto. Now the physicians of the asylum in
which she has spent the interval pronounce
her fully recovered, and she is to be tried for
tiie crime which, she says, seems to her to
have been committed only yesterday.
Father Ignatius, the ritualist monk, was by
last accounts more than ever convinced that
the apparition seen at his monastery of St.
Anthony, Wales, is the Virgin Mary. Ue
lias himself twice beheld the fair visitant,
and, as an illustration of the miracles wrought.
Father Iguatius insists that an incurable
cripple of thirty-seven years’ standing “has
been instantly made to walk by the use of
some leaves touched by the Virgin.” The
reverend gentleman has written letters to both
the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop
of St. David's,in whose diocese the monastery
is, informing them of the miracle. Many pil
grims now flock to the Abbey, where an altar
lias been erected commemorative of the Vir
gin's presence.
The Flag of the Prophet Is in the custody
of the Mohammedan chief priest, Shcik-ul,
Islam, and is kept in the mosque of St. So
phia in Stamboul. It is made of green silk.
There is a large orescent on the top of the
staff, from which hangs a Horsehair plume,
claimed to have been the tail of Mohammed's
favorite horse. On the folds of the flag me
displayed the ere cent and certain tpiof a
tions from the Koran. Mohammed adopted
green as his emblematic color because nature
is green, and it is ** everlastieg and univer
sal.'* The following words are on the flag :
who draw the sword will be rewarded
with temporal advantages; every drop of
their blood sited, every peril and hardship
endu’vd by them, will be registered on high
as more meritorious than either fasting or
praying. I ’ they fall in battle their sins will
be at once blotted out. and they will be tran
sported to Paradise, there to revel in eternal
pleasures in the arms of !la"k-eve 1 ho iries.
Hut for the first heaven are reserve i those o!
the faithful who die within sight of the green
flag of the Prophet. There may no man give
or expect money.”
Cases of vitriol throwing are becoming so
general in France that it would be difficult to
chronicle all more or less successful attempts
at disfigurement by means of the corrosive
liquid which are almost daily committed by
jealous spouses and abandoned sweethearts.
Unfortunately the hand, especially the female
hand, when bent on deeds of vengeance, be
comes unsteady, aivf is apt to inflict unmerit
ed injuries on those who happen to be in close
proximity to the intended victim. A young
woman named Ilortense Fabre has just been
tried for throwing vitriol at her lover in Tou
louse. Intent on taking a terrible revenge
on -a young tradesman by whom she had been
abandoned, site sought him out in a cafe
where he was unsuspectingly playing cards
with his brother and a friend, and, drawing a
bottle of vitriol from her pocket, flung the
contents at the group, without taking particu
lar care only to direct her aim at the object
of her revenge. The three men instinctively
raised their arms to protect themselves, and
fortunately the damage done was only to
their clothes. Ilortense Fabre, who pleaded
guilty, was sentenced to a fine of $5,
