Black burn, so the story goes, happened to be passing through) Owentbn, the county Beat of Owen county, on the occasion of tho hanging of a) noted criminal. As a lumping is a rather exceptional epi-de in the State of Kentucky, the candidate for Congressional honors concluded he would remain iujthe place a few hours and witness the event The gaMows; was erected in the public square, so that no citizen, however humble, should lose the opportunity of seeing the unusual spec tacle. It was, in" fact, a gala day. such as the history of; Owenton had seldom recorded. . The sheriff, in a spirit of true Kentucky hospitality, invited Blackburn, as one of the distinguished guests pres ent, to occupy aj seat on the gallows. Blackburn did so. After the prelimi naries had been arranged the sheriff con sulted his watch land discovered that it was not quite 12 (o'clock, the hour fixed for the execution. Turning to the prisoner he said d "You have ten' minutes yet to live. Is there anything you desire to say in the meantime?" j The prisoner sullenly replied there was not. At this instant, Blackburn sprang from his seat, and advancing to the edge of the scaffold said " If-the gentleman will allow me his remaining ten minuses, I -will be glad to announce myselfi a candidate for your euff rages. If elected to Congress " Here the prisoner very .impatiently ex claimed : "Say, you ! Is your name Joe Black burn!" f "Yes. &ir," replied Blackburn politely. With an expression of intense disgust cn his face th prisoner turned to the sheriff. "We won't stand on a few minutes more or less, " said he, " when the alter native is presenjed of death on one hand, or listening to ne of Joe Blackburn's long-winded speeches on tlte other. Flip the trap and let roe go. " The good-natured sheriff -obligingly "flipped the trap, " and the next instant the desperado gtuig Into eternity, while Blackburn clambered down the gallows, exclaiming as he went that he had lost the greatest opportunity of his life. Mistakes of ja Tfer-SlBlited Man. Lawyer Ashley, of New York, was telling Judge t)avyj says the Detroit Free Press, a stry of Daudet, the nov elist, who is extr-ejmely near-sighted. The story ran Ihns Daudet visited some place in which -as kept many animals. He sauntered slowly about, peering into their cages, until he came to a secluded spot where a furry object not in a cage attracted his attention. "Ah 1" said the distinguished Frenchman, "this must be a tame bear, f and taking some cake from his pockety he flung it, with a "There, old- ferfow," straight into the face of a Russian nobleman, whiten veloped in'his sables, had stopped to rook at the bears near by. Imagine his anger and surprise. Daudet apologizes, etc, etc., etc j The judge listened intently, but after the lawyer had (finished he said gravely: "I can tell you something far ahead of that in the wa of mistakes caused by near-sightedness. "A friend of Imine who lives in the suburbs came f-fom the city one summer evening just atrtwilight. He had broken his g'aises and was almost feeling his way along when he oecame-conscious of somebody walking directly in front of him. It seemed to be a short woman in a bright gpwni wearing a wrap about her shoulders, one end of which trailed down behind her. She, walked so heavi lv that my friend began to think that, though short, she mu3t be exceedingly stout A few slteps more and the wrap touched the grolund and dragged in the mud. This wa4 more than his gallantry could stand, &6, stooping forward, he said, J Allow me, madam, to replace your mantle,' at the same time gently raising a red cow's tail and placing it across her back! " . To Be Kept from King Humbert. "Tom" Ochiltree wanted to control a large slice of tjie patronage in Texas, and asked an audience with General Harrison for the purpose of explaining matters. The president sent out word that he would give the former member from the cowboy district of Texas fivt minutes of his time in the library. "What!" exclaimed Thomas Porter house, "five minutes for me, for me, who was almost rai-aed in the White House, who has almost! slept in the same bed with a President; who has been the con fidant of kings and princes five minutes forme, for me 1 Tell that little bow legged lawyerj from Indianapolis, that sawed-off Hooaier, that Thomas P. Och iltree has not the five minutes to waste on him. " As Ochiltree sailed out of the White House he paused long enough to say to a newspaper man : "For heaven's sake, don't print a word of this. I don't want my friend King Humbert of Italy to hear of it, you know.

The fashionable drawing-room of to-day is a remarkable sight to behold. Say what the tailor may, the frock coat is coming back among well-dressed gentlemen who are not influenced by the fashion plates. Men as a rule do not admire tailor dresses, for they do not give the pretty willowy curves to a woman's waist that men admire. They tolerate tailor-made dresses on occasions when they are a ne cessity, but the gowns they admire are the rich, elegant, brilliant dresses, with handsome decorations of embroidery and passemen terie. Delicately perfumed wax lights have been introduced at fashionable dinner parties. The new idea in ball gowns is partic ularly pretty. Some have brocaded trains, sometimes replace 1 by tulle tuck, but the accordion-plaited tulle in front is veiled with plaited gauze and scattered over with flowers ; hyacinths and similar blooms answer best and liliei of the valley. Fringes of buds someti nies adorn the ends of sashe?, as in a black spotted tulle. Pretty women and flowers would seem to be naturally associated, and these flower dresses are more than ordinarily attractive. A comparatively new idea is a fancif ui easel, ou which rests a folding photo holder, the whole being made of polished olive wood. The holder has places for two pictures, and On its front is a charm ingly executed design in hand , painting. In a ladies' shoe store on Eighth street the salespersons fix mirrors on the floor through which purchasers can Bee the reflection of their newly shod foot The attention pleases the customers" said the proprietor, "and the shoe is shown to advantage. " Philadelphia Record. Grecian headbands, which were fashionable five and twenty years ago, have been revived in gold, silver, amber, and tortoise shell. ABOUT WOMEN. As man's genius is to him, is woman's heart to her. Lord Lytton. I sometimes think God woman He is expected to must be a forgive so much. From Mai Moolie. Women who environ a man's fidelity by ceaseless suspicion and exaction cre ate the evil they dread. Ouida. The woman makes or mars the man ; the man the woman. Mythology has no need of the Fates. From PascareL How strongly does nature plead for them that we should draw our first breath in their arms as we sigh away our last upon their faithful breasts. O. W. Holmes. A woman must talk wisely or look well Every human being must put up with the coldest civility who has neither the charms of youth nor the wisdom of age. Sydney Smith. A woman who is ice to his fire is less pain to a man than the woman who is fire to his ice. There is hope for him in the one, but only a dreary despair in the other. Ouida How is it that women do not relish jests as much as men? The reason seems to be that the essence of a jest is ill nature, and that women are better natured than men. Lord Lytton. The average woman lives in her affec tions, and, if not in these, in her vanity ; and only very critical persons are able to detect any great difference between the two. Agnes Leonord HilL . A woman's sharpest agonies must be aesthetically "rendered," or they appear to a man as simply ridiculous. Her love must be never so excessive as to jar upon his own secret evolutions of wnat is " pure womanly, " nor yet must it be so moderate as to provoke his disgust lor what is "commonplace" Agnes Leonard HilL A WondeiTul Grease for Boots. r. Alexander Zoroastroff recommends to military men, sportsmen, etc, a grease for boots which is said to completely prevent sore feet and a whole train of familiar afflictions. The ointment is made of four parts of lard, four parts of olive oil and one part of caoutchouc (raw rubber) which are melted together on a slow fire. Having moistened the 6ole of the boot with water, the inventor warms the boot in a stove or before fire, and then smears it over with the com pound. The boot is said to" become soft, pliable, shining, waterproof, and even more durable. All Is Not JLot- The modern child is an analyst The jmall kid was playing with the scissors ind his kindly old grandmother chided him : "You musn't play with the scissors, dear. I knew a little boy, just like you, who was playing with a pair of cis lors, just like that pair, and he put them in his eye and put his eye out, and he never could see anything ever after. " The child listened patiently and said, hen she got through : "What was the matter with his other iye?" rSan Francisco ChroBMla.

S 'e , Short .......... A jffood One oa Lamar. i W Some time ago when the question was Erst ling broached about the possible nominat ion of Secretary Lamar to a seat on the bench of the Supreme Court, Mr. Lamar was seated in a popular restau rant m this city surrounded by a little group of friends, which included among others-Mr. Muldrow, the Assistant Secre tary tf the Interior ; Senator Beck of Kentucky and Senator Vooriiees of Indi ana. In a band i ing way reference was made to Mr. Lamar's experience as a lawyer, when Mr. Voorhees said: "Now, Lamar, did you ever really have a law case a real, bona fide case, you know, in court?" Mr. Lamar, who was sitting holding his chin in his hands and wearing his usual abstracted and dreamy air, replied nfter a minute's thought : "Yes, I did have one genuine casa After I first put out my shingle as an at torney down in Oxford, over the door of the little office I had rented, I gathered my few favorite books in the rear of the office and put in my time in reading. For three days nobody came into the ufiice except a little colored girl from the house to inform me when the meals were ready, and I was enjoying myself immensely. I must acknowledge that I aid not care much for clients, except that I knew there must be some income to keep the family going. The third day alout noon, while I was reading 'The Clouds 'of Aristephanes, the door opened and a typical Mississippi mountaineer entered. He said: "Is there a lawyer man here ?" "I laid down 'The Clouds' and think ing here was my first client, replied : " ' Yes, sir, I am an attorney. What ran I do for you?" "He sat down in a chair near me and said : " ' I want to consult a lawyer man.' " 4 Well, what is your case?' I asked. " ' You see,' replied the man, 'I live up in Bledsoe, and thar has been a question for some time as to whether me or Bill Johnson was the best man in Bledsoe. The gals had taken the question up and it was generally decided up in Bledsoe that the matter had got to be settled by me and BilL Bill, he had done up his man several times, and I had did up mine ; ana it only remained to see whether the gals in Bledsoe was to take Bill or to take me. Now, yesterday, Bill, he kim down to my house and he hitched his boss to the stake and rider fence in front and hollered for me to come out. I went out and when I seen Bill I knew it meant business. "'Well, I walked down and said, "ITowdye, Bill, "and Bill did likewise, 'How dye." Then Bill said, "I think that little matter as to which is the best man in Bledsoe, might just as well be settled now as ever. " I said, "Right you ire, Bill, I "think we better settle it right aow. " " ' Well, Bill he tuck off his coat and I tuck off mine, and we stud up to each other. Bill he made a pass at me which I got shut off by a lucky duck of my head, and after three or four hits back and forth I got in a sockdologer under Bill's ear, which laid Bill out and put him asleep. Of course that settled the matter, and I am on top just now. " But, Mr. Lawyer man, the pint is jist here. I know jist as well as I know sowbelly and greens from bacon and turnips that Bill Johnson is a better man ner I am. and it was only by a fortunit dy-saster that I got my work in on Bill, and I am of the 'pinion that the chances are only one out of a hundred that I ever could get in my work on Bill again. "'Now, this bein the case, it jist oo cured to ma that I would come down here to Oxford and git some lawyer man to swear out the peace on Bill Johnson, because it ain't reasonable to s'pose that if Bill an me got together agin such an other fortnit dy-saster mought happen to me. Now, what I want of you, Mr. Law yer man, is to swear out the peace on Bill Johnson, so I kin keep on top in Bledsoe, and I have brought you down two jugs of good band-distilled whisky to pay you for it' "That, " said Lamar, "is my first case. " Foreign Ignorance of Tanlteeland. "You would be surprised, " said a Scotchman who has identified himself with the manufacturing interests of the United States, "to hear the people in the old country talk about locations and disj tances over here. A good deal has been written and printed about their queer ideas, but nothing can adequately de scribe the ignorance that prevails regard ing this country. When the Charleston earthquake occurred I was in Boston, and by the next post from abroad I received a letter from my wife, who was in Glas gow, written in extreme anxiety, and expressing the hope that I had not sus tained any serious injury. She had more than half a dozen notions, however, that I had been crushed, and so I cabled her to relieve her mind. I know a lot of such cases. You see, the longest rail road trip you can make in the United Kingdom is about 600 miles, and they can not realize that there is a land where one can ride continuously in one direc tion for a week or more. When a local Liverpool man starts up to London, a five hours' ride, his friends come to the depot to see him off, and make a great ado about his journey. He is provided with baskets of lunch and all that sort of thing, while an American in the next compartment has only had a comfort able smoke and read bis paper when he reaches his destination.

The floods in Indiana drove birds and animals out of the bottoms, and hunters killed lots of animals. j While one of Pittsburg's I mounted po licemen was chasing a criminal his horse suddenly lay down. The policeman got off, and so did the fugitive. J Dr. Kuhneman, of the university of Berlin, has figured it up that a railroad train of fifteen cars would be required to carry the food and nourishment a man of moderate appetite would consume from the time of his birth ito the age of 10 years. j The crews of the United States war vessels composing the squadron of evo lution were attacked by the influenza in mid-ocean and forty -eight men were prostrated.

The next day her arms were covered with sores, and a week later she died of blood -poisoning. The doctors suppose that the skin belonged to an animal that had some contagious malady. Medicinal rings were at one time seri ously believed in. Physicians were wont to wear finger rings in which stones were set, and these stones were credited with the possession of many virtues. Some times the patient was simply touched with the ring ; sometimes he put it on his finger for awhile Many a patient has worn such a ring to stop hemorrhage. If the desired result followed the ring was unreservedly regarded as the heal ing agent ; if the cure did not follow we ore told nothine about it .
