not find so much fault with his
wife for what lie considered her
extravagant and useless eipendi
tnrc of money, and supreme content
and unalloyed happiness held high
carnival within his castle walls.
One morning when, his cooing babe
now aged nearly two years, sat on.
his maternal grandmother's knee,
:i colored servant brought ber a let
ter, fresh from the hand of the.
wiry man in modest gray She
oK.'iied it with a smile of peace,
road with a gasp of horror, and
then, with one wild shriek of woe
she and the infant simultaneously
fell to the floor. The letter, writ
ten in almost an illegible hand and
filled with an abundant amount of
phonetic spelling, contained the fol
lowing startling words :
'Yonr sou's wife is a nigger. lie

mother, and I am what they call
a mulatto. You would think she is

come see me. I send my address.'
A name, numlter and the name of
a s'reet were, at the bottom of this
dynamite hand-grenade. Of course
when the oM lady recoved from her
swoon she refused to believe that
the note contained the truth. How
ever, when the husband heard of
the contents, he immediately began
a strict investigation, and when
the facts in the case became so
convincing that the wife could
denv no longer, his young and

ing been more successful at decep
tion in this line with her husband
i -
than the young wife had 'been witji
her young broker husband. The
leautil'ul brunette wife then cer
tainly had a very slight negro ele
ment in' her physical make-up. It j
ippears that the old colored grand- j
mother' had for years obtained j
hush money' from the young wife, j
which she spent on htlr ruling pas
sion gambling. The! old mulatto
was the womon who had so amazed
frequenters of 'the low gambling
hells of this city. When the young
wile refused to give the. old woman
money she would theraten to write
or tell the secret to the aristocratic
mother-in-law. ,
t last the wife, tired out ami
completely disheartened by the fre
quent damands on liev purse by the
old female gambler, absolutely re
fused to give her aaiy more sub
stantial wealth, never even dream
ing for a moment that at that late
day the old woman would carry
her vile threats into "execution.
ut, in an evil hour, the old female
gambler did so, with the dire re
sults stated. As the young wife
refuses to . give up her husband,
aud as her attorney, one .of the
leading lawyers of thLs city, de
clares that under the peculiar cir
cumstances of the ease the marri
age is legal, it is stated that the
young broker, goaded on by his
indignant mother, will institute a
suit for divorce at an early day. In
appearance the unhappy Mrife re
sembles the average pretty Ameri
can brunette, amino one not con
versant with the. facts as here
given would suppose, even for a
moment, that she had a slight mix-
gossip and slander were strongly
depicted ; and he showed how the
stormthat wrecks a home is often
started by a faint breath of suspi
cion. Blunder 4. -'Excess of amuse

tal and physical, should be . en
couraged and enjoyed ; but an ex
cess was ruinous : there were t hings

incongenial marriage often mars a
man's life; but as often a happy

Blunder 0. "Attempting life
without enthusiasm andentcrpri.se"
Life all around was full of stir.
Every day saw fresh discoveries
and new appliances in every field.
Gigantic progress was lieing made.
Never was such an opportunity for
enthusiastic work. Without such
oualities a man would go under.
Each one, he said had a special;
mission to be perform.
Preventing, Bank Failures.
A law to prevent bank failures is a
great want of the day, ami the
Tiiiiex revert to China for aid. It
says that seven hundred years ago
in China, Li-Tuk-lIo, the able prime
'Minister of the renowned Emperor
Wan-Lung, devised a law so simble
and yet binding, that since its
adoption no Chinese bank hs be'en
known to fail. It provides that
upon a bank susiendiiig payment,
the heads of the president, cashier,
and directors 'should be neatly lop
ped off. and piled up in one corner
with the assets- This gave great
satistiictioii to the the creditors of
several banks, which, unlu akily,
happened to fail just as the law
went into effect, but from that
time to the preseiifc day no Chinese
depositor has ever had cause to his
confidence;
