what seriously 111. 
The young wife of Minister Chvlstlancy doesn’t

The Itothschllds have lately patd In England 
$i95,oon probate, and $i20,000 legacy duty. 
Mrs. A. T. Stewart, pays a tax on only $500,000 of

Colonel McDaniel, the veteran turf man, Is ly¬ 
ing very 111 at his residence, at Princeton, with 
pneumonia. 
Mrs. Emily llayne, mother of Paul 11. Ilayne, the 
Southern poet, recently died in lilchmond county, 
Ga-, 74 years old. 
According to Victor Hugo forty-five is the half¬ 
way house between youth and old age. A woman 
never reaches l he hair-way house. Does she ? 
The English Government has granted pensions 
of £600 annually to the widow and £100 to the 
mother of the late .Major Cavagnarl, who was mur¬ 
dered at OubooL 
The granddaughter or Eugene Sue, who was the 
original of one of the characters In the “ Wander¬ 
ing Jew,” was a petitioner In one of the New 
York courts UGl week. 
“Grant and Mahouo’ would carry Virginia,” 
Is a proposition laid down at Washington. The new 
Senator from Virginia Is ambitions and very 
likely suggested the ticket himself. 
King Kalukaua, like Dennis Kearney, dislikes 
the Chinese, and tears they will obtain possession 
of his kingdom. Therefore he asks Portugeses to 
make their home In the Sandwich Islands. 
Nine of the United states Senators have given 
eons or sons-ln-law small jobs about the Capitol.

In his message to the South Carolina Legisla¬ 
ture, Gov Simpson recommends that the con¬ 
vict labor be employed and utilized outside the 
penitentiary walls In the development of the re¬ 
sources of the State. 
olive Logan says the new Queen of Spain Is a 
real bread-and-butter miss, as depleted by Syren, 
but her mot her, the Km pi cas of Austria, Is a 
woman Of great beauty, liut, then, Olivo Is get¬ 
ting rather notorious as a sensational gossip. 
Walt Whitman Is 111 at St. Louis—too 111 to 
travel. When he Is well enough t o leave the house, 
he either goes down to iho river to ‘-loaf and Invite 
his soul,” or visits a neighboring kindergarten, 
where the children gather merrily about him to 
beg lor stories. 
The bonus of John Randolph of Roanoke have 
been removed from their burial place at lioanoke, 
Va., and deposited lu Richmond's Hollywood 
Cemetery. Judge Hunter Marshall, one of the 
pall-bearers at the late burial, was present at the 
lirst Interment Of the great Virginian In 1833. 
The attorney general Kiving granted a Hat for a 
writ of error to the Tlohborne claimant In England, 
an association (o help to set l ho claimant free, and 
restore to him the properties and possessions of the 
Tichbornc baronetcy has been formed. There is 
little danger, however, that the rotund fraud will 
derive any beuellt from these efforts. 
Mrs. Jane Grey Swlsalielm petitions congress to 
give to “ Susan,” the wife or the Ute Chief John¬

ienable In her and her heirs until the Fourth of 
July, 1979, in acknowledgment of her heroism and 
humanity In defending Hie white captives lately 
taken by her tribe.” This Is very generous nr m rs. 
Swlsshelrjj, especially as General Arlarns alleges 
that Susan’s blood-curdling story that she rushed 
Into the Indian council and made a thrilling speech 
demanding that the captives be freed, has not a 
word of truth In It, and that, In fact, Susan was 
not there at all. 
When “ T had” Stevens was a young lawyer In 
the Pennsylvania courts, he once lost his ease by 
what he considered a wrong ruling of the Judge. 
Disgusted, he banged his law books on the table, 
picked up Ills hat and started Tor the door, with 
some vigorous words In his mouth. The Judge, 
feeling that, his dignity was assailed, rose Impr es¬ 
sively and said: “Mr. Stevens!” Mr. Stevens 
stopped, turned and bowed deferentially. “Mr. 
Stevens," said the Judge, “ do you Intend by such 
conduct to express your contempt for this Court ?” 
And Stevens, with mock serlouHnrwa, answered: 
“Express my contempt for this Court! No, sir! 
I was trying to conceal It, your Honor l”
