& MONROE MAN ELOPES WITH HIS
BROTHER'R WIFE.
She Returns to Her Husband Arvested for
Stealing His Brothers Horse and
Buggv. His Wife Forgives
and Goes to Jail
With Him.
A special from Forsyth says: One of
the most peculiar cases of unfaithfulness
and forgiveness has developed here in
connection with a very sensational ar
rest.
About a year ago, Charles Harden be
came infatuated with his brother
George’s wife, and she transferred bher
affections to her brother-in-law.
The result was an elopement, and
Charles Hardin and Mrs. George Hardin
left for parts unknown.
Not satisfied with taking his brother’s
wife, Charles also made away with his
brother’s horse and buggy.
RETURNED AND WAS FORGIVEN.
A few days ago, Mrs. George Hardin
returned to Forsyth and was forgiven
and taken back by her husband, George.
She then disclosed the whereabouts of.
Charley, stating that he was in Calhoun
county, where had been living together
under assumed names.
Sheriff Newton,gof this county, went
after Charles Hardin and returned with
him this morning and lodged him in jail
on the charge of stealing the horse and
buggy.
FORGAVE HER RECREANT HUSBAND.
Then Mrs. Charles Hardin, following
the example of her brother-in-law, for
gave her husband and fell into his arms.
At her own reques: she went to jail with
him and took her little girl.
After this double reconciliation, the
bitterest feeling exists between the two
families. George is bent on prosecuting
his brother Charley for stealing bis horse,
and buggy, when he will, at the same
time get revenge for the theft of his
wife, and Mrs. G o°'ze Harden is equally
bitter in her feeling against Charley.
Mrs. Charles Hardin has espoused her
busband’s cause, and states that she
and her child will remain in jail with
him until the last.
The people are al! well known in this
section and the whole affair in creating
no little sensation.
A Torugh Manxman,
I’m a Manxman, and I have inherited
a rugged constitution. I seldom wear
gloves even in your winters, and much
of the time I go without an overcoat.
For many years I followed the sea, and
I had one adventure that few would
have lived to tell of. It was a midnight
of December when I was ordered aloft
to stow the main royal, and before I
knew what I was about I fell from the
yardarm into the sea. No one on deck
had noticed my fall, and apparently no
one had heard my cry, for the ship kept
right on. There I was, with heavy boots
and a heavy coat, alone amid the waves
of the Atlantic. You may not believe
me, but I did not feel greatly alarmed.
I managed to get out of my boots and
coat, and then I began to swim to keep
myself afloat. Somehow I felt that I
should be saved. We had passed a ves
gsel about sunset, and I thought she’d
come along and pick me up. I had been
a good swimmer all my life, and I kept
afloat till daybreak, when that other
vessel did come along and fish me out,
four hours after I fell in. We got into
New York three days after my ship ar
rived, and when I came aboard, as she
lay at her wharf, my mates took me for
a ghost.—New York Sun.
Truthful,
‘“General Grant was,’’ says General
Horace Porter in McClure’s Magazine,
‘‘without exception the most absolutely
truthful man I ever encountered in pub
lic or private life. He was not only
truthful himself, but he had a horror of
untruth in others.’”” An anecdote illus
trates this trait.
One day while sitting in his bedroom
in the White House, where he had re
tired to write a message to congress, a
card was brought in by a servant.
An officer on duty at the time, seeing
that the president did not want to be
disturbed, remarked to the servant,
‘‘Say the president is not in.”’
General Grant overheard the remark,
turned around suddenly in his chair
and ‘cried out to the servant:
‘“Tell him no such thing! I don’t lie
myself, and I don’t want any one to lie
for me!”’

Some Famous Men Whose Childhood Was
as Remarkable as Their Matarity.
Sir Christopher Wren was a prodigy
in youth, as in maturity. Oughtred, the
first mathematician of his day, declares
in the preface to Lis great book that an
“‘ingenious boy, gentleman commoner
at Wadham,’’ had enlarged thesciences
of astronomy, gnomonics, statics and
mechanics by most brillicat discov
eries, ‘‘praeclaris inventis.’”” This was
Wren at the age of 15. A year before
that he had taken out a patent for an in
strument to write with two pens at the
same time. In thesame year he was ap
pointed demonstrating assistant on anat
omy at Surgeons’ hall.
Wren lived to justify his early prom
ise, but Dugal Stewart tells us of a boy
who, as he hoped, ‘“‘would rival the
fame of Sir Isaac Newton.’’ This was
the son of Count Pusgstall. “‘I cannot
help considering him,’’ wrote the
Scotch professor, ‘‘as the most extraor
dinary prodigy of intellectual endow
ment that has ever fallen under my
knowledge.’”’ This is a great saying in
deed from Dugal Stewart, who was not
given to enthusiasm nor careless expres
sion.
Unfortunately we have no detailed
information about the youth’s acquire
ments in later years. He died at 19 of
general decay apparently. But Mr. Le
maistre met him in his travels and pub
lished an account in 1806, the boy be
ing then 5 years old. ‘‘He sits on a car
pet, surrounded by his books, and when
the gravest and most acute remarks fall
from the lips of this little person a
spirit seems to speak rather than child,
and the fine expression which sparkles
on his countenance tends to strengthen
the idea.”’
Among other tests, Mr. Lemaistre
asked him to make a map of the Vene
tian empire, which he did with accuracy.
Those competent to judge the fact will
readily believe that the child of 5 years
who performed it was an animated mir
acle. The French armies barred nearly
every road in Europe to an English
traveler at that date. Mr. Lemaistre
asked how he could get home without
touching Hanoverian, French or Dutch
territory. The child ‘‘instantly traced
on the globe the single road remaining
open.’’ It is well for this gentleman’s
credit that Dugal Stewart’s evidencs,
long afterward, makes the story possi
ble.—Chicago Times.
fi;;poleon’s Marshals,
The families of the most famous of
the first Napoleon’s marshals are still
represented in France. Bernadotte,
prince of Monte Corvo, is represented by
the Swedish royal family; the Princes
Murat bear the title of the brilliant
cavalry commander, Berthier’s descend
ant is the Prince of Wagram, Lannes is
represented by the family of Montebel
lo, Oudinot by the Duke of Reggio,
Mortier by the Duke of Rivoli and the
Prince of Essling, Groucy by the Mar
quis de Grouchy, and Poniatowsky by
Prince 8. Poniatowsky. The lines of
Marmont, duke of Ragusa; Duroc, duke
of Frioul; Kellermann, duke of Valmy;
Aungereaun, duke of Castiglione, and
others are extinct, while Davoust, duke
of Auerstadt, is represented by a grand
nephew, now a commander of an army
corps. Soult’s name only is kept up by
a grandson, the Comte de Mornay Soult
de Delmatia, while Moncey’s title—that
of duke of Conegliano—has been taken
by & grandson, the Baron de Gillevoisin,
What to Leave a Son,
If my choice were free, I would rath
er give my boy the memory of a fairly
happy and untrammeled life up to 20
and leave him nothing then but a con
sequent reasonable optimism, an un
sapped courage and a disposition to re
gard money as a means rather than an
end than keep him constantly face to face
with a specter of possible poverty, fill
him full of premature cares and leave
him $5,000 or $25,000 a year and no
memories, or well ground, healthy
tastes, or world to live in indeed except
such as he commonly sets out to make
for himself under these circmstances,
which is worse than nothing.—Scrib
per’s Magazine.
The Heady Pin.
What’s that you say, my boy?
The teacher says you are as sharp as
a needle?
Well, probably she meant to compli
ment you, my boy. I have nodoubt she
did, but remember that needles always
go into things with their eyes closed.
You don’t want to be like that.
Now, there’s the pin. The pin has a
head, you will notice, which prevents
it going in too far.
Be like the pin, my boy.—Rockland
Tribune.
Sheridan and Waterloo.
An American gentleman recently
went over the field of Waterloo with a
guide who boasted that he escorted
General Sheridan over the scene of Na
poleon’s great defeat. ‘‘What did Gen
eral Sheridan say?’’ asked my friend.
‘‘Oh, nothing.’”” ‘‘He must have said
something.”” ‘“Well, he only said, ‘lt
was a —— good place for a fight.’ *’

Modern Heroines at Least Are Longer
Lived Than Jane Austen’s Were.
Is the human race becoming longer
lived despjte the fret and fever of mod
ern civilization? It is an interesting
question, and it may very probably be
answered some day by science in the
affirmative. The longevity of profes
sional men is now generally considered
to be greater than that of farmers or
mechanics. In other words, intelleoc
tual activity, although in many respects
more exhausting than physical, has in
the main a salutary effect upon the hu
man frame. It may be the nerves rather
than the muscles nupon which we main
ly depend, after all. It is a common
place of observation that the big, hearty
men are constantly dropping out of the
world, while those of far more fragile
organizations apparently live on to a
ripe old age.
As to the increasing longevity of the
race generally, there is no little inci
dental testimony on this head to be
gathered from various sources. Some of
the early heroes and heroines of ro
mance are old before they reach what
we should call middle life. And at the
beginning of our own century Jane
Austen, whose testimony is always unim
peachable, speaks of the healthy and
contented woman of 40 as having a good
prospect of 20 years of life yet. Twenty
years! What woman of today thinks of
herself as falling into decrepitude at 607
Elsewhere in Miss Austen’s pages we
run across people who are old with the
passage of half a century of life. But
now we have Gladstones at 80 and over
and think nothing of it.—Providence
Journal.
Liquid Compensation,
As illustrating the great value placed
on a little whisky by some folks in rural
Maine, where ‘‘prohibition prohibits,’’
this story is told: ‘‘A big red faced fel
low, who was suffering from a long spell
of enforced abstinence as well as from
an injured toe, was brought into the of
fice of a well known physician of cen
tral Maine to have the toe amputated.
The sufferer objected to the use of ether
or chloroform, bat when the doctor turn
ed out a tumbler of whisky for him to
drink he no longer opposed the proceed
ings, and the toe was cut off without
trouble. Reviving after the operation,
he looked at the foot meditatively for a
moment, and then cocked his eye shrewd
ly at the doctor. ‘Say, doc,” he re
marked, ‘gi’ me another tumberful of
that whisky, an you may cut off another
toe if you wanter.””’—Lewiston Jour
nal.
It Was In Inverse Ratio.
‘““Youdon’t want that $25 hat, Mary, ”’
said Mr. Muggins, who was with his
wife in the milliner’s store. ‘‘lt’s too
big anyhow. Now, if the milliner could
only take off four or five feathers it
would be all right.”’ :
‘“That’s easy,’’ interposed the milli
ner sweetly, suiting the action to the
word. ‘‘And there you have a love of a
little bonnet.”” And then, as Mr. Mug
gins felt for his pocketbook smilingly,
thinking of the economy he had effected,
she added, ‘‘Now it’s only sso.”’—Chi
cago Record.
Solonesses,
“‘Have you been able to catch the
speaker’s eye?”’ asked the first lady leg
islator. :
‘“‘Have I?’’ rejoined the second legis

blue bengaline, with the heliotrope
sleeves, and the speaker couldn’t keep
his eyes off me.”’
