Hats, Gaps, Shirts, Sox���������Ties,5" Few Shoes just to hand. People travelling' the Comox road last week, noticed a strong smell just beyond the half way. Enquiries developed the fact that two young men, going down tbe road "feme days tef^, saw a deei standing by the roadside. Procur- ing a rifle, they returned; and shot tlie poor beast, and left it lying there to rot, and assail the noses of unoffending travellers with its sickening stenehi.

"I ' suppose "this will not be the first time Godfrey's - <lone the jumping act in the face of the law, and was not bothered afterwards?" '"Naw," laughed the lover of the old juniper berry. "He jumped the 'Great Cipher' iu Wyoming, though there was- a court officer*������������n guard there, last year; ���������and held hei, ever since. The owner ' was killed in the 'spree,' and every one * -sent out to 'vistigate just took three or four (thousand dolJ-irs of Godfrey's ���������chips and left without troublesome questions being asked, but all reported that ���������Godfrey was in the right. ��������� When this chap Valleyfield, or whatever you qall -him, turns up his toes, who'll ever come out here to see about matters that Godfrey can't fix. *Y\'"*hy, alter paying ell Ihe -expense of jumping the "Gr^at* .Cipher,' Godfrey took out over' half ,-a ���������million -dollars of pay ore before the 'horse-neck lode played out."1 . r'"Godfrey's a terror." weekly, admitted ���������the bartender. t "Still, I am darned -* -sorry for that tenderfoot. He ?eems to<> - darned good to be a ci.ich for Godfrey." Here others .came in and drinking became general. *' Elizabeth rose up and .went out. How - . 'dark everything seemed. What a strange change had come over everything. The hot winds whirled up from ���������' the valleys and catching the loose boards >on the rookery before her, made them ' Tattle as if in pain. The trees seemed *ad on the, silent hills beyond the canyons, and,the wild flowers iu the passes were too far away, to be seen. The great river, whose passion only came in spring and autumn.flowed on as if brooding over a voiceless' anguish, and the "birds that flew back and forward in the ���������trees, sang only discordant ; strains. 'Gradually the meaning of it came,' to Elizabeth. She was looking out at ���������everything through the windows of a inew terror, born from the words' she ���������had heard uttered in the place .where ���������men in that locality drank the po'sonous i 'decoctions offered to the thirsty in all '���������mining districts. . With Valleyfield dead what would'.the ���������world-be to her? her heart asked, and * "then answered its own question. It -/would be without light, a prison lonely, ' ���������������.

She knew that now as truly aa she knew she loved him.'With him ali*.re she could live on and in hope wait for her soul's longing to bo solaced, but with Valleyfield dead, ah! all she desired of life would then be done forever. In rapid sequence from the comprehension of this dread, came the wish which swelled in its volume, to save him if she could. But how could she? Only one possible way seemed open to "* licr after much feverish planning. She anight sign the document of his dis- ���������missal, which she.0still carried with her, -���������und after sending him out of the miue, "���������leave it to Godfrey without resistance. It did not take her long to decide to ���������do this. She would lose her mine, but ewhnt was that to the life of the man she loved. Without her mine she held ���������"842,000 now in cash from its revenues, ���������and that would be sufficient for herself 4ind her father for the rest of their Jives, even if the Eagle Bill was lost to ith em. ' Besides her father had been -speculating lately with some money she "had loaned him, and he had done well. Buoyed up with these thought's her decision soon became a fixed one.. Fortunately she had brouaht the blank document for Valleyfield's dismissal with her to the Little Gulch District, together with the deed of her mine. She took them both out of her portmanteau now, and borrowing a pen and ink from the clerk, signed tin* fn-s-t of these in a trembling hand. Then she took th.' Btraightest path she knew to the Eagle Bill mine. Upon her arrival there. ch< found a miner on guard with a Winchester thrown over his knee*-. He knew her, and she was allowed u> enter without question. Valleyfield hud recovered sufficiently to be able to don ���������his 'working clothes, and was busy .directing his men i:i their construction -of, additional "fortifications. A glad ���������"light, as usual, flashed into h's orbs at sight of her, but as. usual it died at -once, leaving him looking paler that before. Elizabeth nerved herself for the ���������ordeal, and began, in such a firm voice, '.that it surprised herself, but she felv. fortified b-y the fact that she really did ��������� own.this properly. "Mr. ���������Valleyfield. I am the real owner ��������� of this mine. I did not tell you so before, because it was not necessary. However. I may tell you now���������that I ^do not approve at all of any means of 'holding this''claim other than those sanc- ������������������t'.oned by the law, and, therefore. I ���������shall relieve you from further duty here. Here is the authority for my action-'' --and she handed him the paper she had recent.lv signed. Valleyfield dropped a ^>oard he_ was carrying, and looked at her as if he ���������thought sho had suddenly lost her ���������senses. "You own this mine, did you say?" he questioned, as if he had not hear**, aright. "Yes, I and my father. It was purchased by my Uncle Bertram with inonev supplied to him by my mother 'before she died. Here is the deed of "You would not dare!" she said, with sudden fire, "to put me out of my own mine!" and in her voice there was a repressed pathos, while herr attitude was i' anything finer than when she had said to Claymore, '"If you come another foot towards me 1 will shoot you." Then, seeing the futility, of her will again.*>t his conception ot what should be��������� done, her fine altitude deserted hcr-anil- Hie became instantly the beautiful,* clinging, trustful creature she had been Vthen she had arranged to go w.tn liec< father to Switzerland. ' '"Oh. please' won't you let me .stay���������to be with you!" escaped ber lips at last. Then-her head* tell aud the hot; to.*t*h , came to her cheeks as she knew she had betrayed her secret. "Yes, I would dare," said .Valleyfield. "it it were best to be done. But you'may- si ay. God knows, but some of us may0 need your tender touch before morning. Then lie was gone tcgive new orders to 1 is men. '* ThougL' defeated in her plans, still there was a new undefined sweetn>ss in her heart over the outcome of her return to the Eagle Bill, and she watched her manager as the moments passed in n dreamy half-fearful, half-hopeuil fording, as if she wished to believe that be in the end would prevail. She, worshipped the steadfast resolution with which,lie had clung to his post of duty in the face of everything else. Sho did not know how much he had been tempted, but he had rose above'all, heart" Ions*; ings, all selfish desires, and now, intended to, expose his life to the defence ofthe position imposed ^upon him., There was a superlative heroism in his self- denial of all 'sentiment, while the cold, ciuel necessity for other thoughts and feelings appealed to.his sense of principle and his sense of'manhood. - "All!" sho thoTght, "how would duty", honor and- right { ever be defended if there were hot men ' like him in the world." - -* ' , o DEADLY FRENCH DRINKS- Parisian Tipples That Plaj-, Havoc With. t One's Constitution. It would seem. from the latest medical reports that absinthe, which is the national appetizer, is a-,baby by the side of' the vulneraire which is one of the favorite drinks ' with French'ladies, writes a Paris corresr pondent of London Sketch'. It contains no less than seventeen poisons. Seven tend to epilepsy, -five lead to stupefaction and complete loss* of the powers of the legs and arms and tlie other five to a pronounced stage of coma. , r What, is even more curious to read- is /that absinthe 'no longer exists. The original basis pf absinthe .was wormwood; .to-day it seems that it is a mix-up of the essence of stinging nettles, spinach pickled,' in alcohol, , indigo dye and a dozen other drugs that, on injection,-have killed a dog in twelve hours v Even vermouth is violently attacked. It is a difficult city to live in, >s- Paris. The Municipal Council decorates tho walls with posters announcing that you are as good as" dead if I you drink Seine water, and, now^ that the doctors have started out .to '--prove that you should drink notning, tho "Gay City" seems dry���������and not humorously dry. " ' * Y >" ���������' WHAT FILIPINOS EAT ONE FAVORITE DISH OFTHE NATIVES IS GRASSHOPPER PIE. CHAPTER IX. o THE RTP.UGGLK VOR THE EAGLE KILL. ' ��������� - ' Valleyfield conducted Elizabeth to an apartment far-in the interior of ,the mine, arranged so that by dump.ng several loads of ore -which stood ready, the door could be so barricaded that it' would be hours before anyone' could shovel away the ore and enter. ; "This is our hospital," he explained. 'But Elizabeth was.too nervous to remain idle hore. She found more relief in looking at the handful of'brave-heart-' ed <men making their preparations ��������� to withstand an expected onslaught. Very different, however, was the conversation she now heard from what she, had heard through,.the bar-room wull'at^Darcie's., "Do you think they'll rfusilade. or rush, us first?" asked a tall,fine-look mr miner ir," and she handed him the other paper she <��������� was holding. -1 . ,o Valleyfield'.s ,f ace was a study, but tho surprise in it soon gave way to a new determined look, and h^ said softly,** but, very firmly, as he handed both, papers- back to her: "That ,is all right. Those papers ar.c unquestionably genuine, but I am sorry they are of no use here just now. If you could see the agreement under which I hold the controlling position here you would find that I cannot be dismissed without a month's no'hie. Therefore, in spite of your evident, de sire, to the contrary, I shall stilf'-Tc- main in control here for at the v.?ry .lcast a day longer." Elizabeth's firm attitude forsook her at once at the failure of her plan. She had never surmised, for she had never had anything to do with the hiring of men, that notice of dismissal would have to be given to her manager. An air of humiliation and dejection, therefore, came to her as she stood there vainly thinking of some way of asserting her will. "I * will accept this, of course," as u notice of dismissal," said- Valleyfield, a little sadly, as he picked up one ot th*1 papers from -where Elizabeth had laid them down, and put it in his pocket. "And now, if you will permit me, I wilt conduct you off of this claim." named Walter Tyson, as he and Valleyfield deposited some dynamite cartr dge-- near the inner fence and connected th" battery wire to them. "They'll fusilade us first' with their Gatling, Walt. But we'll keep quiet The rush will come afterwards." "That's what I'm e.-.pectiu'." Tysmi iepli"d. "There ain't anything else for them tot, do. But these poppi'rs wi:i (heck them when they come in range. I think we'll hold her. sir." "Yes, Walt, we'll hold her certain-: but some of us may be, carried out wiih a coat over us." "I hope it won't be you, sir." "Why, Walt, it would be .better'-than you, I am alone in the world, while you have a. wife.and little ones." .- "True: but this is our life.'"' You are.- cut out for something bettor. T know that. Damn it, sir, I'd cut the camp to-night if I were you and leave this whole infernal business. Trust the llaglo Bill to me and the boys. We can hold her in spite of h������������������1!" , , Valleyfield looked the other in the eyes silently; then in another moment hv said.' . ��������� " ���������;.������������������ "Do you think, Tyson, I would over lot another in this''life" "'take the place I should fill?" *'Oh, I know your "feeliri's. They're all pure nuggets. But damn it, man, it may be due your friends that you should report to them with your boots ou. You have good friends somewhere?" "I have the best friends here, it seems," said Valleyfield,quietly, and tho. two men looked into each other's eyes again. (To be Continued.)* AcChampion of the Worm. The recent ' session of the' British Parliament furnished an amusing illustration-of the occasional'power of satire to bring- about results which sober' argument has failed to, accomplish. ' ' ***' . -v ,'_ A bill designed to prevent cruelty to wild animals in captivity had been presented; and was, opposed by a number of members' on the 'ground that'if passed it would endanger certain- kinds of legitimate-sport. , , - The Earl 'of Kimberley/arose anil gravely., admitted the, force" of tins argument. / --' * '< "Undoubtedly," he said, "the .bill* would put - ah end to fishing with worms as bait.1 It is a bill,'-"he continued, "to prevent cruelty ,to wild , animals in captivity; tho schedule says the word 'animal' shall,be held, - to include reptile; a worm may be, held to be a' reptile; a worm impaled on a hook must certainly be held to be in. captivity; therefore the angler who. ures'a live worm 'for bait would , be guilty of' cruelty* to an animal in captivity."7 ' ' ;,_,���������'. "./ i The laugh '. which this argument raised at the, expense of the solicitous sportsmen robbed the opposition of whatever force it' had, and .carried, the bill to a successful issue. " Y Y- The Kaiser as an Orator. , In spite-of the fact -that Emperor William - of ten has occasion .to 'regret his words of a previous evening he is a brilliant or at or Y lies speaks inc abrupt sentences, which he ,punc- < turtles regularly with a gesture of his- right arm���������a gesture without, either grace or, elegance, but jerky and'energetic. His left hand invariably remains riveted, , on the ' hilt of his sword, and his-arm���������not" fully developed���������is closely pressed to his side. When the Emperor is-going to speak, his physiogonomy'reflects a surjees-.ion of impressions curious, to watch. His features, immobile and. even rigid at first, relax immediately he opens his mouth. Lightning, as it were, plays over his energetic face, his' eyes sparkle with a fascinating radiancy, and his upper lip, so beautifully formed, reveals every other moment two rows of . dazzling white teeth. Everything die says' has such a pro-; found sense of.x-cohvictibn, and breathes such zeal, that his listeners are worked upon completely, taken possession of, and.no longer-dream of being critical. If'he had not been Emperor, William I. might have become a popular tribute, capable . of moving the "masses" by the effect of his word alone. How Much a Baby Weighs. The baby of normal weight tips down at birth the tiny scales at the seven-pound mark. If he or she is much heavier or much lighter, ho or she is at war with the average. A peculiar feature of baby weight is. that, during the first days of its life, the youngster���������that is, the perfectly normal youngster���������loses one pound.

Your correspondent having had the privilege of investigating the -kinds of food eaten by the 'native people of -the Philipimie Islands some interesting information may be given concerning the way in which the Filipino makes up a good dinner at low cost.' "Probably the most common article of food, that would not be desired by Americans or others, than the Filipinos,', is the grasshopper.' In these' islands the grasshoppers not only grow"in great numbers, but,the size of the insect is large. There are those who make a business of catching the grasshopper during the best season for, them, which is in May, June, July and later. ; There are several methods used by the Datives for catching grasshoppers. The* most effective is" the net. - This is a largo butterfly net,, arranged with netting placed over a hoop, and to the latter is fixed a long handle. ��������� The native takes this .handle and'with the mouth of the net to1 ward the grasshoppers he rushes forth, bagging considerable numbers at< each run. *"��������� The-grasshoppers, "always go in swarms,- except the .advance' guard- and the stragglers,, and1 if .anything occurs to' disturb their'flight they get confused and tumble into bags readily or. fall into the open mouths of nets. ,They "fly so closely that ��������� tbesl cannot, well' escape, as when they turn slightly out of their course, they j come, into contact-,with other grasshop-' pers next-to'thcni. r - " Grasshopper catching "is a prftatable. business in the Philippines/ Grasshoppers eell" at $2 per sack, * gold; Jn: the larger cities of the islands, where the people do not have a chance" to get at the in-' sects in the field. The sacks'of the islands hold about a bushel.. The grass:, hopper is a regular article, in the, markets 'for the-entire year, as, after,drying out, the hopper can be kept indefinitely. It, is in the operation of drying that the , grasshopper is made- eatable. , I, never ��������� saw a ^native' eat. a rgreen ��������� grasshopper, but I'have.'seen, them eat the'.dried ones by the pocketful on the street or in company at entertainments and by the dish- ,ful at the. table, at "their '.homes.

' Their mode .of catching consists- in going-to the hills in parties, of a dozen ,,or more with the proper bags and articles' for collecting the moths. . The scraping process is used -in some-sections of the islands, * while in Negros ' isle I noticed that they ^adopted a different scheme. Here they "spread a bamboo net^on the ground beneath an overhanging colony of the moths'and then proceeded to disturb ' the insects with' the point of a spear, or piece of bamboo.

This operation consists in * creating heat to such an extent that the tissues in the heads and , wings become baked and crumble off. Often the moths in their present stage ', . of preparation are eaten with some sugar or, with other articles of food.

'��������� The ' best classes of natives, however, do not oat the bats. ( The mode of catching -the *- bats is peculiar. The cities, towns and ���������. barrios of all of the islands of the'Philip- . .' pine group are quite overrun'with; bats, which fly through the streets at night in - large .numbers.

Therefore the native takes a long pole, puts assort'off combination hooked \ arrangement' at the top and takes "posi-'-.p tion in a street, and-with the pole-held' ' erect waits for bats to' come* along and.' bump into the hoiked portion.' As the * native"sees a bat coming,he plans-tri'have '-*, ���������- the hook in* its' path, and as he ihoves the < pole, so as to bring the hook into' contact with the head of the' bat, the latter usual- ly strikes it with a bang and drops,to the earth stunned, when the native proceeds to promptly'put the bat to*death.''

Hans Nelson and his wife, with three miners from Skaguay. had gone to Latuya bay on a prospecting trip with pro'visions^and supplies. They had a measure of success in their venture, and a few' thousand dollars among them represented the returns for their first month's work. One morning they sat In their rude cabin at breakfast, says the Philadelphia Times. Michael 'Dennin. one of the party, had not as yet come from his tent. Mrs. Nelson mentioned his nonappearance with some wonder, as he was usually promptness itself at meals. A joke was passed'on bis absence, and the laugh -had uot subsided when the cabin door was thrown open end Dennin appeared, shotgun in hand. He said no word, but raising the gun to his shoulder fired point blank at one of his miner comrades. The second barrel was then turned upon the other of his tent mates, and a load of buckshot perforated him. Withiu two sec- - ouds of time two men lay dear!, literal- !.���������" shot to pieces with the heavy loads ot large shot discharged at so close a range. Michael threw open the gun barrels and* reached in his pockets for two more shells. Then Mrsi Nelson awoke to the necessity of "quick action and sprang like a wildcat upon him. She twisted her fingers into the clotb about his throat and by the impetus of her attack drove him back against the wall. ��������� .'/ Her husband, slower of action, but now aroused to justifiable rage, grappled with the big Irishman and hammered him into insensibility with the barrels of his shotgun before Mrs. Nelson could prevail ,on him to desist. Together they bound the murderer hand and foot and rolled him into a bunk. Then they buried the victims and put tbe;grewsome place in order. Days of anxious waiting followed��������� days that nearly drove Hans and his . brave little wife crazy. They were alone in that wild country, far from any human being, with a murderer on their bands. Nelson had gone to a high point on the beach and rigged up a distress signal on a pole in the hope that a passing steamer would observe it and send a beat ashore, but none came. For ten days they waited thus. Mrs. Nelson tells.the; story pf that horrible time in these words: ' "The first two days Hans staid at the cabin with me. and we took turns watching Dennin. He bad recovered a i from the hammering Hans gave him and was sullen and angry. I would sit by the hour with a rifle across my lap opposite the bunk wbere he was tied and sew or knit, jumping at every move lie made. We would feed him after we ate���������or I would, because Hans would not touch him or speak to bim. Once a day Den tun's feet were untied.' and lie was let out, with a long rope around his waist for exercise. Hans stood dose to him all the while with the rifle cocked ready to shoot him ir he started to run. "After, the third day Dennin began to talk to* me now and 'then, and Io gradually led bim on to tell about the murder. He admitted, everything and said his intention was to kill us all. take the gold we had gathered'and go back to,Skaguay with a story of an In-o dian killing. He said he was repentant and begged hard for us to let him go. promising to getjnto the wilderness aud live his life out. I used'to read to him from the Bible and tell him the stories of Christ's life* and teachings, and it did,him lots of good. Sometimes he1 would cry by the hour with his,face- buried in the blankets. "it.last, when we had'given up all hope of help( from,the outside,' Hans and I, made up'our minds, that we would have to execute Dennin ourselves. , It was either that or turn him loose,'and neither one'of usabelieved in turning such a red handed murderer -out to do more'damage. *��������� - ; a, , ' r "I told Dennin our decision'and said that we'would bang him Friday���������this1 was Wednesday���������and' he should pre-, pare himself'for death. "lie .took, it hard'at first, and'we watched him with double care during those two 'days,, expecting that he would make a try for' liberty. Thursday night he'gave up/all hope and nt' Hans' 'suggestion 1 wrote out an account of his crime'^ln detail, which I read to him. .Then" we untied his hands' and he signed*.it. .Hans and I ' both placed our names on the paper as witnesses, and Hans got' two of 'the Indians in who *added --their names, or rather their maftis. ,< ' ������ ' ���������, "The, uext morning' early we hung him to a tree back of the cabin. "The. execution was a very serious matter and was carried out as though ,'lt were under the'order of a court by a depiitized'officer.-Dennin seemed glad ,'to have it all over. He* had lain there ���������bound Jwith ' ropes - for,, ten days an.3 was very" badly cut and bruised.! He was'repentant/and 'professed' to be'a' Christian." *��������� * ��������� ' - - "We had placed 'a barrel under the 4tree. Dennin's feet were untied, 1 hav ing first put the rope about his throat. 'and the knot under the left ear and pronounced sentence of death upon him.' He was then lee7 out, I walking behind with the cockeu rifle pointing at *him. Hans had to help him up on the .barrel, he.was so stiff, and threw the rope over a limb, tying tho end to the trunk, leaving a two foot drop, * "In a circle about the barrel sat the "Siwash Indians, -silently watching the u'oceedings in which they had refused "o take a hand. "1 read from the Bible the story of he prodigal sou. which seemed appropriate. Dennin said 'Goodby' to us respecting Irishman has kissed, may -be found In the ruins of the Blarney castle, Ireland*, which was once upon a time a" famous fortress. Traditions as to the identity of the stone are various, ���������the best informed, perhaps, designating a stone set in the-northern angle of the lofty castle wall about 20 feet from the top. To touch one's lips to the polished surface-of the stone secured to one the gift of gentle, insinuating speech, and consequently it was much desired to accomplish 'the, feat, whicn was no insignificant one and could only be done by means of r ropes. So the Jeffrys family, into whose possession the ruin.came, decided that another stone'would do,as well and selected one which could be reached by crawling through a battlement arid letting one's friend hold one by the legs while kissing the stone. This was also dangerous, so the stone was" placed on the top of one of the high pinnacles. A crazy man not only climbed up to it, but dropped the stone and broke it. and now the Hibernian guide informs the .tourist that he must kiss "the three halves" into which,'.it was broken iu order tbat the mysterious virtues may be imbibed.'

When he leaves, the process is reversed, and at length he arrives on the sidewalk with a considerable idea of his importance to the company which has the good fortune to safeguard his wealth. A person who wants to rent a box is severely catechised. His pedigree to the third and fourth generation is deemed essential. His age, his profession, his habits, even his hopes and aspirations, are put on record. A few days ago an old gentleman and his wife, who were either the possessors of suddenly acquired wealth or recent arrivals in the city from up the state, called at a Broadway safe deposit company for the purpose of renting a box. The box was to be entered in the wife's name, and her husband was asked if the wife had any peculiarity by which she could be identified. The old man hemmed and hawed and rubbed his chin doubtfully. "Well." he said at length, looking at his wife out of the corner of his eye. "well, I must admit that Alice is a leetle quicktempered." "Why,, William," was the retort. "1 haven't said a mean thing to you in going ou 3G years." "Now, Alice," said her husband, fencing for ha opening, "don't you recollect the time"��������� "No, I don't, and you don't neither." At this point the examiner thought it best to interpose. He said that the matter of identification would be waived. The essential parts of each applicant's record are communicated to the attendants, who, are required to keep intelligent watch of the drift of patronage. A woman who expected to meet a friend in the vaults on a Saturday morning asked an attendant if any one had called to see ber. , "Not today," was the reply, "but your sister was here(Jast Thursday afternoon," a statement which was perfectly true. Instances of this watchfulness might be multiplied. Persons who don't have to worry about where their food and clothes are coming from are proverbially careless. This carelessness is the cause of much trouble to safe deposit companies. One woman left a pearl rope ^orth 528,000 lying on the table in a room she had just quitted, and another was mildly anxious because, as she confessed to an attendant, she didn't know, what she had done with bonds which a modest valuation put at ������80,000. Where Misery, Squalor.

Glover���is adding another chapter to tbe strange romance ��� of ber life. Sbe is divorcing one millionaire to marry another. She,wants to 'be free from the husband sbe has notT seen in ten years to become the * -? lv I-Si - -^ OKISKA ttOKDEN. o bride of a man whom sbe has learned to love since sbe, became famous as a singer. ��� This will be news indeed to tbe west- *ern world, for it was here that tbe young' couple spent their honeymoon, Bays 'a San Francisco paper. It was* here that love's illusion began to fade, and it was here that the^ charming singer returned to win most substantial recognition for her talent when the separation from her rich husband threw her upon her own resources. The union of wealth and beauty is always sufficiently unusual to attract widespread attention. A millionaire lover is perhaps tbe ideal ancl the dream of almost every girl. To Oriska "Worden millionaire lovers ceased to be a novelty years ago. In fact, rich suitors-have been the rule and uot the exception in her life, with titled lovers to give variety. So it is not strange in ber case, though passing strange lo the world at large, if she has recovered sufficiently from the disillusion of lier first matrimonial experience to try a second venture tbat the favored suitor should also be a millionaire. That wealth and happiness do not always go band in hand has been shown in the weave and woof of Miss Wor- den's bitter experience. Sbe bns found money���her husband's money at least ���a hindrance instead of a help. It has brought her misery instead of happiness, and now, through her counsel. Robert L. Turk of Now York, she is suing for absolute divorce and alimony for ten years at the rate of $10,000 a year, which she will give to charity he- fore wedding tbe New York stockbroker who is to be her second husband. At the same time she will sue Mr. and Mrs. Henry Glover, ber father-in-law and mother-in-law. for $100,000 damages for alienating her husband's affection, for it is to them that she-aTtrib-' ute'd much of the misery of her hard struggle since sbe became the wife of their favorite son. ' And, as with the alimony, she will donate whatever damages she recovers to some worthy charity, and thus are woven the tangled threads in the skein of her remarkable romance. * Miss Worden has always been noted for ber beauty. Her mother was a noted beauty before her. and her father- was Colonel F. W. Worden of the famous Worden family. :a distinguished infantry officer. As a girl she had everything lavished upon her that money could buy. When a mere child of 7S years, she' was sent to the Cou- ��� vent'of'Mount de Chautal," in Wheel ing, to be educated. She showed great aptitude for music and languages, and at her parents' request her education was principally in these arts,' so that when, she returned , home at' the age of 16 she-was'not only beautiful, but clever andraccomplished. ' ,��� She became the belle* at once, and suitors of fine, birth and* breeding flocked to pay her court. Tbe most determined was CharlesJ W.', Glover, son of a millionaire manufacturer of Y'xihM'ti. Mich. ' lie vvas ardent and .devoted, and his suit prospered. He wiiii the girl ,foi- hi/* wifi\ and bis wed- il'ii'j gift was a magnificent home in \--...>-j.,r|,H ,v,v:!��, <*i"'i ono' ' The wedding itself was a fashionable function and never did a union of wealth and, beauty promise " more. The guests* came from far and "near, and at ,th!:- ,sumptuous wedding breakfast Dan Cu' pid'was toasted and pledged a-Ion;-, and happy reign. That was in.:lSQ2,' , and the bride was just 17 years old Four months,-later the first chapter, was landed. - - ' s _ ��* > - , The disillusion began with the hon eyinoon in .California. The romance lost its gloss as soon As trouble began, and the young couple returned speedily homeward. Miss Worden charges it all to her husband's parents. She'en-' dured their interference as long as she cduldi Then, acting on the ad vice, of her'father, she left her .husband, and ' hex; palatial $100,000 residence behind and went to Paris, to resume the study of music in order, to. fit herself to'-bo 'self"supporting. Colonel-.Worden gava his rich son-in-law the option of follow ing her, which .the,young man refused, Thus e'er her^dream of; a happy married life had really begun'it was'ended. Four month's after she became, the bride of Millionaire Glover this child wife, found, herself practically alone iu the world. Her husband .made no effort, to even communicate*-with 'her. and their love story .ended, there.', Bitterly disappointed at the wreck"" of her hopes and her happiness. Miss "Worden set" herself tbe task of becoming."an accomplished singer, -"tier: life in^Paris. is the record."pf a bard and .trying struggle, for she was studying under the fanyms Jacques Bouhy. one of "the most exacting masters in .the French " capital, .where Mme. Su-. zanne Adams, who "will'soon,be beard here in-, grand opera, .was "her, classmate. *" .-'-���'. . '"���' /, *> She. worked hard!'&nd,wben she had finished, three years latei\ Bouhy""'spoke' in glowing terms of the sweetness-and purity of. her rich soprano voice and pronounced her' an -artiste worthy of grand opera i**les.t She' then* reXjirned to America and became at-once tile prima ��� donna of ' the Castle Square Opera company. 'This was in 1S95. and. though sbe did not. know it until recentlyr-her husband .had 'secured a divorce from her while she was studying alone in Paris. This "she declares in her suit now pending was illegal, as , it. was obtained'without ber knowledge. . . . ���- , MUTINOUS MONKEYS. Simians-Get Loose on-Shipboard and ���������' Attack the Crew. ' The British tramp' steamer Indra- velli. overrun with monkeys in mid- oceau, was one of the anomalies'"'reported ou the arrival of that ship in New York' harbor a few,days ago. In cidental to the invasion, many a seaman aboard has the marks of tooth" and nail in his flesh. It all came about through the fondness of Chief Engineer John Drew fot pets. The Indravelli'had cleared from Singapore and after arrival in NiT? York the Drew collection inventoried a python 26-feet long..3 tailless .lava nese monkeys named McKinley, Bryan and Irishman, 23-monkeys having tails, but-no names, 10 squirrels and a ,Iav anese poodle. The python is one of the largest In captivity, and, save for one night of ��� SHIP OVKRHU.n: BY MONKEYS. insomnia, ��� when be- swallowed two chickens, a duck and a rabbit, be slept all the way from Singapore. He is beautifully marked and weighs nearly 2U0 pounds.' The Java monkeys, however, furnished the sensation of the voyage. Six days out of Singapore the bottom of- the monkey cage fell out? and in "30 seconds the rigging was full of chattering, shrieking simians. One of them fell" do Wn a-funnel and was cremated, another was .scalded, to death and a third luckless one fell overboard^,.' Irishman, is regarded as the choice of, the collection. He is cross eyed, and,-it-is said that when he gets homesick' tears run off his shoulders. But he is'rwell trained'and had~tbe freedom of, the decks during the passage. He showed great respect for the captain, standing at attention whenever that officer approached. ��� '" PERSONALITIES. Victoria'* Long Rel��n. Queen Victoria-has completed a reign of over 03 years, four years longer than the , period, during* which George 111 ruled over��� Britain. - Since Egbert be- caine'thetirst king of.all England only four sovereigns ,have-lived to see the ���jubilee of their'"coronation. Of these Elward III reigned HO years'.-,Henry 11 50 years, anid Geofge I'll'completed 59 years and 90 days'.* livSeotlaijd James 1 V|,vwtio-afterward became,-.lames I of 'England, reigned for'5K years and was tbe only one'of tjiie Scottish kings" who had- a jubilee,, his.nearest competitor being William^the..

H. ..Adams in Ainslee's., ' ' ' . \ * When the Bees Clean Houso. ���;. The honey bee, like every good housekeeper,. begins cleaning house in the spring, as early, as the weather will ^.permit. They may *be seen at the hive entrance 'bringing out the bees that have* died in the winter, bits of comb, and everything that may have accumulated in the hive,as waste material. They are not content to drop .this at the edge of the bottom board, or near the hive, but cart it all to some distance away, and it looks strange to see a bee flying off with the body of a dead comrade as .large as itself. This work is done before * they begin to gather pollen or honey, and' any colony that does not attend to this as soon as they can take a good flight needs looking after, as it is probably very weak, or perhaps queenless. After they have completed this work, they are ready to go, to rearing brood, and they may need feeding.��� Rural World. The Bible in Many Tongues.
