Mrs. Evgbxia Fox, of Kansas City, set a good example for all ladies who are brow-beaten and terrorized by lawyers in court. During the trial of a case in court Mrs. Fox was subjected to a severe cross-examination by Lawyer Litticlc, and the judge had to stop him several times as he used unbecoming language. Two or three times during the trial ol the case Mrs. Fox was so indignant that she cried. After the trial she procured a horsewhip, and going to Littick's office she gave him one of the soundest thrash ings ever administered by a woman. This is an excellent plan for all ladies tc adopt who are subjected to the bulldoz ing tactics of conscienceless shysters. ITaet Weal TJaatteraale Wea.

DEAD Oestad the WUard fkwaa Brtoa Caeitret Was a SeeseiJ Warwick tat AMsswa eat the Tteaata T Spate Prteealy Baaa facttoaa to Hta Vttoada. The death of James McHeary fro bronchitis, which was announced by cablo front London, created profound interest in Wall street Mr. McHenry had lived so long abroad and had pro moted and financed so many foreign en terprises that most people supposed him to be an Englishman. He was, however, essentially an American; for, although born in Ireland, he was, while an infant, brought to this country by his father, a well-known physician, who settled in Philadelphia and practiced there for many years It was in the Quaker City that youcg McHenry was educated and it was there that he began his business career. At the head of the English investors in the Erie property, who owned what was satirically called a "controlling" amount of the bonds and shares, McHenry un dertook to turn the plunderers out of power. The amazing conditiou of tho judiciary of this city, as well as of the municipal and State- governments, at ' that time is matter of history. General Daniel. E. Sickles, on behalf of tho own ers of the Eric property, sought to re gain control of It through the Legis lature, and the judiciary was worked by means of suits brought by the Attorney General, the late Francis C Barlow. It was in vain. Backed by tho treas ury of the Erie Company and the power of the ring in tho city and State, Gould j and his associate, Fisk, seemed to bo in vincib e. At this juncture Mr. George Crouch went to London and laid before Mr. McHenry and Mr. BlschofTsheim a plan for deposing the precious pair through a revolt of their own directors. The scheme was adopted, and after a series or exciting and nearly incredible incidents, which assumed almost the aspect of a civil war, the struggle tcr- initiated In tho ejectment of the plun- and afterward passed the committoa dcrcrs and in Mr. Gould ultimately giv- sta?c, Morine styling himself tho leader ing back some 83,000,000 nominal value t of the opposition.

Mr. Mc Henry's splendid mansion, Oak Lodge, Kcnsingtonvjut back of Holland Park, is well known to thousands of Ameri cans who were entertained thirjwith almost regal splendor. Notwithstanding occasional reverses of fortune, ho appeared to always hav3 had injrescrve tho means to keep up this establishment Tho honsj was filled with the richest furniture and the choicest works of art It was in thl mansion, with Mr. Mclicntyand his wife, that Isabella, tho ex-Queen of Spain, with her son Alfonso, sojourned after she was deposed. It was there . that the young l'rinco made his homo while prosecuting his studies as a cadet at the Woolwich Military Academy, and it was there that McHenry and his asso ciates perfected their plans for raising tho funds which wero successfully used in placing the young man on the throno t of bis mother. When Napoleon and Engenie sought refuge in England they, with their son, were tho guests of Mr. Mcllinry, and it was at Cak Lodge that the Priucc Im perial lived for years while attending Woolwich Academy, jut as Alfonso had done years before, occupying the same suite of rooms. History cainu vcrv near repeating itself in a singular manner, for in the same house financial arrange ments wero made and plans perfected for placing the Prince Imperial on tho throne formerly occupied by his fathor, just as Alfonso had succeeded to Isa bella's. These, however, were doomed to failure. Tho princely style in wlrch bo used' the great fortunes he accumulated fur- nishes many interesting anecdotes. The late S. L M. Barlow, of New York, wa Mr. McIIonry's counsel in co .ncction with Erie. Cn one of his visits here Mr. McHenry happened to vis't with Mrs. Barlow and others an estate at Glen Cove, L. I , which was on the market The day beforo In sailed for England Mr. McHenry presented Mrs. Barlow with the title deeds of the property, which was valued at several hundred thousand dollars. After the Erie vic tory Mr. Crouch, who bad been libera ly compcn'atoJ for his services in that campaign, dined one eicnintr at Oak Lodge. As he was leaving Mr. McHenry handed him an cnvc!oro with tho re quest that he would peruse its contents at his leisure. It contained tho host's personal check for 10,000. OFF FOR EEHRING SEA. Fealed Order i Seat to ths Kerenao Ctttter It sh to Sa 1 te the North. The So retary of the Treasury has telegraphed to the revenue cutter Hush to sail for Bchring Sex Tho nature of tho instructions which have been given to the commander are not known. Tho Bush wi.l probably endeavor to prevent Illicit sealing, and the result will prob ably be the samo that it has teen in former years. Tho Canadian vessels wiil catch as many skins as they can, and will avoid capture. The sealing vessels arc understood to have already left and tho Ca aJian poaching vesse s have several days' tart The time from San Francisco to tho seal islands Is probably eighteen day.-t Thcro Is no other means of communication with them. Should a decision bo reached the revenue cutters now at San Francisco cannot possibly arrive at Bchring Son in time to prevent seal poaching if a v'gorotis policy should be determined upon. Reports from Ottawa indicate that fifty Canadian poachers have already fitted out for a b:g scaling season and have set sail for passes in the Aleutian chain to await the annual mi gration of the seals. In any event the poachers will have at least two weeks' unrestricted seal fishing beforo tho authorities of the United States can in terfere with them It does not seem pos sible at this late date foran arrangement to be effected between Great Britain and theUnited States providing for a close sea son in Behring Sea. Diplomatic red tape and the dilatory tactics adopted by Lor.l Salisbury have left the matter in su'-h shape that it appears to be impossible to adjust matters cn any satisfactory basis. The represcntathes of the North Ameri can Commercial Company arc entirely satisfied with tho prosject, because it does not appear possible to cancel their contract with the Treasury Department for the coming season. They had an ticipated a heavy loss in the event of a closed season, of which they could only be relieved by a special act of Congress reimbursing them on the bas's of their contract with the Government Cherrs la a Cears-rjem. .

Not the least of these obligations were those that would be brought home to him were he to lose his bets on the great race at Epsom, v Wales bet on Common freely. He had great confidence In the winner of the Two Thousand stake, and many of his wagers were at rather long odds. The result of the Derby of '91 should be certainly grateful news to the people who hold bills against the heir to the throne. NEWFOUNDLANDERS. BENEATH THE IRON HEEL OPPRESSION OF Frcm the Imperial Ge-rernmeat They Op pose Mar-thamber Session of the Cete adal LcffUIatare The Aetlea of the yowfoaaitlaadsrs Caases a SeasaUoa la Parliament. The Newfoundland Honse of Assem- bly met at St Johns for the purpose of passing a local coercion act identical with the imperial act, with the excep tion of a provision that it shall be en forced one year only. This provision is considered a blind, becauso it would bo renewable unless a similar permanent act was passed.. Morine, one of the delegates, sent a protest against passing the imperial act He arrived on the Allan steamer from r.ngiana ana maae a long statement do fore both houses of tho Legislature. , The anti-coercion members protested against keeping tho public out but, were outvoted. At the close of his speech . Morine gave notico that ho would intro duce a coercion bill. ! Tho ru'cs of tho Assembly having been suspended, tho bill was rushed thronzh Its first .and second readings '-'. - "Whiteway's threat of dissolution voted to give naval officers the right to remove persons and property of every descrip tion on the so-called French shore, where the lobster arbitration is accepted. Great indignation prevails at tho re versal of policy of the delegates. Most of tho members stayed away. Only four teen voted for and fivo against coerc'on in the Assembly of thirty-six members. Tho position of tho people generally is that if t'ocrcelvo measures are adopted, the imperial authorities should boar the expenses and asumo tho responsibility and odium of rutting down tho halyards from tho flagstafis of the colonial build ing. The Government created a sensation by discharging seven of the Fortune Bay prisoners. One of tho ringleaders, Hynes, is to bo tried for carrying bait to j St Pierre. Stewart tho other ringlead er, is still at large. Since the agitation commenced public indignation lias never been so intense as at present The DaUy Colonist, voicing public sentiment. Fays that tho back down is cowardly and contemptiblo, Newfoundland being scourged with scor pions and by masked executioners for the purpose of m iking her accept con federation . At the request of tho English Liberal leaders the Assembly recommitted the local coercion bill for the purpose of en- ' acting that it be enforced till the end of 180.1, instead of one year. On divis'on the Assembly met again with c'oscd doors. Thrco Government members Stirldy, Finance Minister, Dowe and Duffy voted with tho anti-coercionists. Strong indignation and disgust are ex pressed at tho star-chamber proceedings of the Legislature. The action of the Newfoundlanders on the Queen's birthday caused quite a shock in the lobbies of the British Par liament It is taken as a proof that the ro'ony is desperate and will not submit quietly to coercion. This is regarded as astonishing by the Tories and with pain by the Libera s. It U no part of Salis 1 ury's programme to drie the New foundlanders into revolt while he Is de sirous of Loth humiliating them and of removing all ca so for complaint on the part of the French.

It is a small body of men in New York who ate thus designated. As a rule they have lived through what insntance people call the productive period of life. They have no families or rear relatives or else have suffered a ceverance of domestic ties. At any rate they do not cultivate the social amenities and have retired from active business. They live in some favorite hostelry, where they get a glimpse of the bustle and rush of life, but they ate not in touch with it Some of them have had eventful careers, and have experienced enough of the ups and downs of existence to s-atisfy them. A few of them actually spend their whole time in their private apartments, going out occasionally for fresh air and a little exercise. It is said.of one of them that he has never been 100 yards from his hotel in the past fifteen years. Neio York HecorJer. Here an I Tliero . New York's Sherman monument fund is 54,046.

The first mentkm made of it wa by Sir Walter Raleigh, who used it in 1597 at Trinidad for re pairing his ships. Aboat the begin ning of the eighteenth century a small quantity of it was taken to England by a West India captain named Gibbons, who sent a few planks to his brother, a physician residing in London. This gentleman, at the time of Ithe receipt of the wood, was having a honse built, and placed the planks in the hands of the carpenters. They attempted to cat it; bat because of its hardness very quickly threw it aside. The doctor expostulated, but the workmen remained fixed in their determination to have nothing to do with the lumber which so snccessfnlly resisted their attempts to saw it The planks were then taken to a cabinet maker named Wollaston, who was di rected to make a candle-box with a por tion of the wood. The same objection was advanced by this workman, but, be ing a lersevering individual, he per sisted, and finally made the box. When polished, it so outshone anything pre viously made that it very quickly lie came an object of curiosity, and the people flocked to.see it As a consequence the wood became quite popular, especially after a portion of the I'hviiiciauV treasure was em ployed in ;!io construction of two bu reaus, one for himself and the other for the Pcchesa of Buckingham. These specimens of cabinet-work caused the rejected wood to become a prominent factor in the construction of luxurious pieces of furniture. Thus Wollaston was amply rewarded for hi persever ance in fashioning it into a candle-box, and his name, together with that of the physician and his nautical brother, be came inseparably connected with the history of the introduction of this wood into civilized lands. A Disconsolate Man. Here's a hard luck story. Tvo been sick for a long time, and in debt for my board, and haven't got a cent I am still too weak to go back to work, and for a week have been trying to earn an honest penny by the common practico of getting commissions from wholesale houses for customers brought them. All you have to do is to watch the hotels and get acquainted with the rural mer chant, then steer him against the proper firm. I had never tried it, but a friend of mine who makes big money at it told me to try it and gave me pointers. Well, I hunted the hotels for a week before I got a man "on tho string." He had come to town to buy goods of Burley & Co. Now, I knew there was no commission for mo at that house. I worked hard to land my man in some other home. I went and ex plained to a bartender the position I was in and asked him to taud me off," for a bottle of wine. He agreed audi went and got Mr. Granger, and he soon had a pint of Pomeroy under his belt This fixed things, and wo started for the house he to buy his bill of goods and I to secure my commission. On our way down we were passed by a dozen fire engines. A grim idea seized me. "What if it was Jones' place on fire." was the thought. In spite of my misery the idea struck me as comic, and brought to mind all the hard-luck stories I had ever heard. My hilarity changed, however, as we turned the corner near which Jones' house was lo cated. The streets were full of people, police, firemen, steam engines, re porters and my blasted hopes. It was Jones' place that was burning. That one particular spot in 180 square miles was the only one where a fire could start. Globe Democrat. Language of Umbrellas. There is a language of umbrellas, as of flowers. For instance, place your umbrella in a rack and it will indicate that it will change owners. To open it quickly in the street means that some body's" eyei is going to be put out; to shut it, that a hat or two is going to be Knocked off. An umbrella carried over a woman, the man getting nothing but the drip ping of the rain, indicates courtship. When the man has the umbrella and the Afoman the drippings it indicates marriage. To punch your umbrella and then open it means, "I dislike you." To swing your umbrella over your head means, "lam making a nuisance of myself." To trail your umbrella alone the footpath means that the man behind you is thirsting for your blood. To carry it at right angles under your arm, signifies that an eye is to be lost by the man who follows you. To open an umbrella quickly, it is said, will frighten a mad bull. To put a cotton umbrella by the side of a silk one signifies "exchange is no robbery." To purchase an umbrella means "I am not smart, but honest." To lend an umbrella indicates MI am a fooL" To return an umbrella means well, never mind what it means, no body does it! To carry an umbrella just high enough to tear out men's eyes and knock off men's hats signifies "I am a woman." To press an umbrella on your friend, saying, "Oh! do take it; I had much rather you would than not!" signifies lying. To give a friend half of your umbrella means that both of you will get wet To carry it from home in the morning means, "It will clear off." Cricket. The Itanda Oriental. The whole Banda Oriental and its in habitants strike one as being more re fined, more amiable, and more gentle than the land and people of the sister republic. Nevertheless, in the country everything is very primitive, and one is astounded-at the rough way in which many of the rich entancieros live on their estates in the simplest and most comfortlessxhouse. These men own leagues and league? of land, and they live like the patriarchs of old, with two or three generations of children under the same roof and eating at the same table, in the old-fashioned creole wav. Such men. as may well be imagined, are not progressive; they continue their pastoral industry ic an indolent, apa thetic manner, leaving to nature almost everything except the operation of sell ing and receiving the money; and, above all, they can not be persuaded to subdivide their land and let them out for farming. Uruguay is being kept back chiefly by the conservativeness of the creole landholders, who possess im mense estates that are inadequately de veloped. The law of inheritance and the obligatory subdivision of property amongst the heirs will modifiy this state of affairs in the course of time, and these vast holdings will be gradually broken up and developed in detail. The pro cess, however, wili necessarily be slow, and meanwhile, as the State owns no lands the increase of immigration can only be slow in proportion. Harper's Magazine. Barrels from Snilri Logs.

The state legisla tion providing for the removal of insane patients from county poor houses was originated by women, and successfully concluded under their auspices. The efficient sympathy and action of women during the late municipal campaign would have been crowned with similar, success but for the unexpected defection of men. The movement for cleaning the streets has been greatly stimulated by women, to whom its progress Is largely duo, and the effective work in the effort to raise a fund to open the Metropolitan museum onSnnday is done by women. All this work is done also, in the most womanly way, and it is interesting as showing the development of a sense of the duty of citizenship which is wholly new, in this extent, among women.

In bis ignorance he failed to consult "Daboll's yearly clam tide regulator," and mutilated the vine in tho wrong season, with the result that the fluid extract of grape began to run, and there was danger of the vine bleed ing to death, when a happy thought went through his brain. Securing some large seed potatoes he dissected them and applied the pieces to the cuts. They stuck together like twin brothers, and the vine and potatoes flourished, gath ered life from each other, till now they form a conglomeration of grape and potato vine that is attracting tho atten tion of farmers and agriculturalists for miles around.

The point at issue in tho candidacy of Phillip Brooks for the bishopric is that Dr. Brooks has at different times freely expressed his doubts as to the divine organization of tho episcopate. Dr. Brooks, if bis teachings or belief ir cor rectly understood, accepts episcopacy as established by the Apostles in its In tegrity as a historical fact and as the best method of church organization.

They aro the voices of sentinels which the Lord has placed within us, warning us of danger. They tell us that we have wandered away from the paths of the Divine order which lead to life and that we are going down to death. They tell us that we have gone astray. It is true that we are much slower in heeding them than we are the warnings against physical danger. We often regard them as misfortunes which como upon us by no fault of our own. We accuse the Lord and our fellow-men of causing them. But still the tendency of sorrow is to awaken the thought that there is danger. This Is the first use it serves. It calls to us with a sharp and painful voice to awake and flee from danger. Rev. Chaunccy Giles, Neio Church. Lions differ. Tho lion of the Atlas Moun tains Is a terror, the Cape lion a cur.
