A Woman Defend Itio l'lr.t Mutt I'rom CIihtkch of (,'imnnlli And Uio Lord Mild, "Ihiist tliott eaten of tho tree whereof 1 cotiiiuniidctl llteo thou nhunltlnt not cut?" Tho ninti fiiIJ, "Tito woman whom thon gavest to bo with inosho guvo tno of tho (rco nnu I tllil cat." Thin, It has been lieM forcen tttrlcH, was AiIuiii'h great Bin, for which ho was driven out of tho garden and hi ilcHCondnutH, cvrti to tho present gen eration, compelled to work for living. In audition to bearing tho conueiiitencca of hia etror Adam has been denoutieed through all miccecding centurierf for hia cowardice and lack of gallantry in try ing to throw tho blninotinontho woman wlio had been given to bo with him 'Ood'a firrtt, best gift to man." Wo aro glad, therefore, thatcven after 0,000 year of nnmerittd condemnation which tho memory of our great pro genitor has had to bear tlicro has arisen one person who dares to hnenk for him. And it is nil tho more fortnuato that that person la a woman a member of tho sex whom Adam's words, by a wrong interpretation, wcro held to havo maligned. This person is Mrs. Caroliuo F. Corbin, n distinguished authoress. In her latest book olio says of Adam's plea: "Tliis is not tho expression of cow ardice, but of tlto innocent nnd native belief that anything which Hits lovely being, fresli from God's linml, proposed must bo right, nnd right or wrong must bo douo. It is n trait which has com down in unbroken continuity of inherittuico to tho latest born of Adam's sons." The thought is n new one, but thcrd is not timan nlivonnd capable of appreci ating Mrs. Corbin's argument who will not indoreo it. Whero is thoro a man to day, barring n few crusty old bachelors, who would not have dono tho samo thing under liko circumstances? Tho woman was beautiful, tho applo was good, nnd Adam was an unsophisticated, ingenious young man unaccustomed to tho littlo social arts and deceptions that tho daughters of Mother Evo havo learned from her example. Wo insist that Adam is vindicated, and that Mark Twain's tears over his grave wero a deserved tribute. Now, let tho building of his monument pro ceed. And let it bo recorded thereon that "ho was a kind, loving and obedient husband." Troy Times.

Tho workmen began on tlto old floor, which had ben worn into hollowB by itgc. It had not been replaced biuco it was originally laid. Ono of tlto men ripped up n board with hia crowbar, raising n cloud of dust. When ho got it out of hia uvea, ho saw Botnelliing ninny in tho crack. Ho picked it up, and it proved to bo a dime. Further invodligatlou revealed tho fact that tho ctaek wan lined with bilvor. This was an incentive to tho workmen. They plied their crowbara with remark able energy for men poorly paid. In this instance they wero amply rewarded. In every crack of tho lloor nilver dimes wcro found. Somo of thorn boro dates of nearly half n century ago. The men gathered tho coin in haudfuls. Tho cigar dealer, in Bpeaking of tho oc currence, said that ho hadn't tho fllight cst idea Hint go much money could bo lost through carelessness and a poor lloor cvcit'in 35 years.
