Murphy of Seward, against whom the supreme court recently rend ered a decision in the' long drawn-out litigation between Bishop Bonscum and himself, has filed a motion for a new hearing, AttorneyM. D. Carey having been in Lincoln attending to the matter. Of this action the State Journal said: WilliamMurphy ,' ousted "f f omtiie" Cath olic church property of Seward by a re cent decision of the, supreme court, has filed a motion in thafcourtfor rehearing. He contends that his "appeals relating to his standing in the Catholic church has not been dismissed by the ecclesiastical authority aVRdme and therefore tbe'eiv il court rannot decide thecase without deciding an ecclesiastical question, which civil courts will not do. A Grave But a House. Is a grave digger a builder? Is-h a mechanic? If not, what in the die tionary or the labor unions Is' he? ;The grave diggers" have made" an en deavor to join the building 'tradei council of Greater New York, and hav been denied. The last home of man It not a house, say the builders. Th grave makers say that as they dig li the earth, they should be classed wit the men who make cellars, who havt been admitted to the unions of tb building trades.. The failure of th!i. logic is pointed out by' the builders;' People can live in cellars and ii houses over the cellar, but' never in oi over the graves. The Somewhat Educated. The somewhat educated girl, knp'n, as a "young. Jady," looks upon cooking not as an art but merely as the "meni al" work of the hired person.. , The lady stenographer, telegrapher, saleslady, private secretary," depart; thent store employe, etc., look at cook ing, "from above downward, n,ot to mention the dainty college-bred "soci ety girl." If cooking were . made a, regular study in all bur public schools as. well. as in our gins colleges tnts senseless, disdain for doing what kCSPS us all alive would certainly disappear in the course of time. The National Food Magazine. Strange Regimental Customs. A peculiar custom, obtains in. an English regiment, the Twelfth Lan cersthe playing of the Vesper, hymn the Spanish chant ( and the Russian national hymn, every night after the "Last Post" has sounded. It is said that the playing of the Vesper hymn origi nated in one of .the officers' wives pre senting the regiment with a new set of instruments on condition, tnat me hymn be played ev?.ry night:. The playing -of the Spanish chant is as a penance for the sacking of a 'convent during the Peninsular war.: No rea son is assigned for the'Jujaying' of the Russian national anthem. To "Save His Face." A Boston' painter who died not long ago was a broken-down wreck In his later days. Some feeling of pride and shame clung to him to the last, however, and, although -he lived upon the charity of his friends, he never asked for money outright. In the crown of ills hat .he .pasted this re quest: "Please lend me, a .quarter," printed in big, staring letters'.'When making a call he would doff iiis.-hat with much show of dignity, and there would be the mute appeal staringin the Jace his.

Oscar Hammerstein was discussing the extravagance of the Metropolitan opera house. "They have trie'd to corner opera." tie said. "They have on their payroll more stars than they can use. That is why they hand out weekly thou- L sands of dollars to singers who have not sung. . . ' "I know that they tried to corner opera in order to cripple me, but I will say nothing against them," re sumed "the famous manager. "They have heard hard words enough. In the production of opera hard words are more the rule than soft ones; and you feel like the frosted Canadian actor. "A Canadian, actor once had a cold reception In New York, but he told me, one night that at last he felt rather complimented. A scene shifter froma rival house had spoken to him In a way that seemed, by compari son, with the newspaper criticisms, splendid. "And In asking for two free seats this' Is what the scene shifter had said: " 'It ain't fur meself I want 'em. Oh, gee. no! I seen 'im wunst, ye know. They're fur the old woman. Like all the women, she jest wants ter say she's seen 'im. Don't worry none about the kind o seats they are. Any old thing '11 do. On'y put 'er near the 'door, so's she kin git out in case she don't like 'im.' " ROMANCE THAT YET IS REAL. History Records Facts We Hesitate to Set Down as Such. A peasant girl called half-witted did promise to defeat the victors of Agin court, and did it;, it ought to be a legend but it happens to be a fact. A poet and a poetess did fall in love and eloped secretly to a sunny clime; it is obviously a three-volume novel, but it happened. Nelson did die in the act of winning, the one battle that could change the world. It is a grossly im jirobable coincidence, but it is too late to alter it now. Napoleon did win the battle of Austerlitz; it is unnatur al, but it Is not my fault. When the general who had surrendered a repub lican town returned saying easily: "1 have done everything." Robespierre did ask, with an air of inquiry: "Are you dead?" When Robespierre coughed in his cold harangue, Gamier did say: "The, blood of Danton chokes you." Strafford did say of his own desertion of parliament: "If I do it may my life and death be set on a hill for all men to wonder at." Disraeli did say: "The time will come when you shall hear me." The heroic is a fact, even when it is a fact of coincidence or of miracle; and a fact is a thing which can be ad mit'ted without being explained. Misapplying Music. "I went to a fashionable wedding the other day," remarked a man whe has little time for such things, "and I was decidedly impressed by the character of the music that was played whilcihe assembled guests were wait ing for the wedding party to arrive The principal number played by the orchestra was an air from one of the most modern operas. It marks the en trance of the heroine of the piece, who is coming on the scene to take part in a wedding of complaisance with theJhero, who is generally regard ed as one of the greatest blackguards the world of opera knows. Ever character on the stage knows that tht Buddhistic wedding ceremony that is to take place is a sham and the mar riage turns out to be a tragedy of tht shabbiest sort. And yet that musk was played in a church that standt for intelligence if any one congrega tion In this town does." Cult of Beauty in Bosnia. Half a century ago a traveler In Bosnia found the poorest peasant woman an adept in the arts and ad juncts of the toilet. Her store of cosmetics was said tc be "astonishing," comprising oil oi roses,- rose water, extracts of musk saffron and amber. She dyed her hah black and dressed with with "kna,' while' her eyebrows and eyelashes. were darkened with a powder made from ,s green nut burned black (schischark) She painted herjcheeks with powdered flower of the iris and her nails witb yet another floral product. For a de pilatory she .used lime and alum. In spite of these aids, however, the beauty of the Bosnia woman was fading thing at 30. Hung by Wedding Ring. .While a woman named Gregson, of 'Swadlincote, England, was placing a pehnyin .her gas meter she slipped, and her wedding ring caught on a nail In the wall. She remained hanging for some time before help arrived. The ring bad to be removed by a jeweler before the doctor could dress her In jured hand. Concrete Also Is New-Old. Concrete itself is, of course, very j old. The .concrete stairs of, Colchester t and Rochester castles still show the 'marks' of jthe encasing boards; the "dome of Agrfopa's Pantheon, which is l42:'feet'in diameter, Is of concrete; and' fragments of concrete buildings air fbmad la Mexico and Peru, X most imitated, and the best all world. T HAVE COMPETITION IN PRAYER. Quaint Ceremony Held -Each Year in 'an English Churchyard. In the little churchyard of Wottos, near Dorking, the annual prayer com petition for boys of the parish took place recently at the tombstone of. William Glanvill, the London Post says. " Glanvill, a member of the Inner tem ple, died on February 2, nearly 200 years ago. In his will he stipulated that money should be set aside to pro duce 30 a year, of which 40 shillings ' was to go to each of five prayer boys who should stand on February 2 year ly at his tombstone, bareheaded, recite from memory the Lord's Prayer, Ten Commandments and Apostles' Creed; read the fifteenth chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthians, and after ward write from dictation in a legible hand two verses from the same chap ter. During upward of 200 years the competition has been maintained. The age limit is 12 to 16, and a boy can only succeed once. Recently the boys assembled in the church porch, their names were taken and a selection was made for the com petition, which Is-fixed in the local cal- endar as "Forty-shilling day." Then the competitors marched to GlanviU's tomb and the signal was given for the recitation. Some of the boys, almost stammering through the cold, secretly rejoiced that it fell to their lot to re peat the short commandments, but a moment later they were called to re cite the second and fourth. When a complete examination-had been made the boys marched -to the schoolroom, where the reading and writing exercises were conducted. In an hour the winners' names were an nounced and they each received 40 shillings a cherished reward in the little village. JIMMIE VIEWED WITH ALARM. Saw Dreadful Possibilities in Advent of the New Baby. 9 "Well, Jiminie," said the visitor. "I understand you have a new bab here." ' "Yes," said Jlmmie, "he ot here last Tuesday night." ''Whom does he look like, your fa ther or your mother?" asked the vis hitor. "We don't know yet," said Jimmie. "He sums kind of undecided yetf "They tell me he has your father's nose," said the visitor. , "Yes," said Jimmie. "He has pa's nose, and ma's mouth, and Aunt Sarah's ears, and between you and me I'm for givin him grandpa's teeth. He ain't got any of his own, and, grandpa's got two sets. What I'm afraid of is that if they don't give 'em to him he'll get mine, and I need 'em in my business." Monte Carlo's Balance Sheet. The gaming tables at Monte Carlo are once again in full swing, and the casino is pouring into its coffers some thing like i: 4.000 ($20,000) daily to ward the annual million or more it ex pects to clear before April closes. But enormous as the casino's profits are, its expenditure is proportionately great and includes some strange items. Thus it pays about 9,000 a year foi clergy and schools, 6,000 for charity and 20,000 for police and courts. The maintenance of the casino runs into hundreds of thousands of pounds. And yet, in spite of these huge dis bursements, the 'shareholders have lit tle cause to grumble, for they pocket in dividends something like 500,000 a year; and. even in a poor, year, can rely on a return of over 30 per cent, on their holdings. Command Respect and Love. Beauty of achievement, whether In overcoming a hasty temper, a habit of exaggeration, in exploring a continent or guiding well the ship of state, is al ways fascinating, and those who arc in this fashion beautiful are never desolate, and some one always loves them. Frances E. Willard. Uncle Jerry Sees Through Them. "I see," -remarked Uncle Jerry Peebles, "the life insurance com panies have laid down a set of rules for making 'people live 15 years long er. I ain't going to pay any attention to 'em. The life insurance com panies have got a good enough thing as it is." HUM PACIFIC TMLE WEST BOCMD.
