ONCE A FRESNO BELLE. Downfall of a Girl Who Married Against Her Father's Wishes. St. Louis, Oct. 13.—According to the Globe-Democrat, Nellie Norman, the pretty twenty-three-year-old girl who committed suicide here yesterday by taking a dose of carbolic acid, was Nellie Anderson, a former belle of Fresno, Cal., whose father was one of the wealthiest men living there. Her story was a romantic, and in some respects an unusual one. Several years ago she ran away with and married against the wishes of her parents, Matt Mitwowich, one of her father's gardeners. They went to Stockton, where the father found them. He took the blow as philosophically as possible, and set his son-in-law up in business. Two weeks later he heard that his daughter had left her husband. It became known afterward from the letter sent by Nellie to her mother that she had gone to Chicago, where she got employment in a cloak house. This she left some time afterward because of an insult offered by her employer. She then became an artist's model, and as such was in great demand because of her beauty. She posed for one artist, the acceptance of whose medallion over that of other artists undoubtedly superior caused a great deal of trouble in the World's Fair board. It was while posing for artists, the girl maintained, that she was ruined. She then changed her name to Norman. Boyle, the sculptor, whose works of art at the World's Fair are well remembered, had been searching in vain for a suitable model for one of the figures in the group "Navigation." He selected Norman, who became famous as his model. Bohemian life was too much for her, and in six months the form over which artists raved was gone and her beauty faded, and then but one course was left and she followed it. Some time after the World's Fair closed, she came here and applied for aid at the Hepzibiah Home, where she was received on the promise to reform. She became ill and was taken to the City Hospital, where she wrote to her father in California for help. The reply received said her mother was dead, and because of the life she was living her father could not have his daughter return. She drifted again into a fast life, and becoming sick and discouraged, finally decided to end the struggle by death. Games for Halloween.

More skill is required, more care taken, more expense incurred in its manufacture. It costs the proprietor and the dealer but it costs the consumer less, as he gets more doses for his money. More curative power is secured by its peculiar combination, proportion and process, which make it peculiar to itself. More people are employed and more space occupied in its Laboratory than any other. More wonderful cures effected and more testimonials received than by any other. Sales and more increase year by year are reported by druggists. People ar taking Hood's Sarsaparilla today than any other, and more are taking today than ever before.

TERRORS OF THE KLONDIKE. Government Reports From St. Michaels are Not of the Roscate Order. WASHINGTON, D.C., Oct. 17.—Information received at the Treasury Department from Captain Tuttle of the revenue cutter Bear, now cruising in Alaskan waters, does not paint a rosy description of scenes and prospects in the Klondike regions. Writing from St. Michael on September 16, Captain Tuttle says: “There are in port seven sea-going vessels and six river steamers, with one steamer and one barge in process of construction on the beach. About 300 people are encamped, awaiting the completion of these vessels. At least seven crafts are expected to arrive, many of them with passengers. There is no possible chance of these people reaching the upper Yukon this season, and they must winter here or at some point inside the mouth of the Yukon. While there will be an abundance of provisions, the trading companies having their main depots here, trouble is likely to arise from those who have no provisions and no means to purchase them. This, however, is a small matter when taken into consideration with matters above Fort Yukon on the Yukon river. "On September 13, the river steamer Milton returned from its rise." OLD POSTAL USE CURIOUS PHASES OF THE MARKETS SIXTY YEARS AFTER Rates on Ordinary Letters Were Almost Prohibitive—the Penny Post and the Orders Against It. When Queen Victoria ascended throne, there were no telegrams country and few railways. Were forwarded by coach, an age rates were to all but the prohibitive. It cost from 4d to send a "single" letter meant a single paper (adhesive envelopes had invented), and the addition of scrap of paper made the letter "one." The postage was paid livery by the recipient, and it was given the incursion of into a poor neighborhood without on all sides with fear rather than Coleridge, the poet, saw an declining to accept a letter score of inability to pay.

This system practically stiffens intercourse among the working press with severity upon the class, but the rich and highly entirely escaped postal taxation privilege of franking covered spondence not only of ministers and members of parliament their relatives, friends and anances. While in one year each queen's reign no less than eight letters were franked, a single firm paid annually £11,000 furlough and a writer in The Quarterly flippantly to "so slight and rudimentary in a laborer's life as to a letter."

Handglasses, with apples beside them, should be placed here and there, so that the modern Eve may eat her apple and wait for Adam to peep over her shoulder. Great pleasure, however, will be found in the games which all may play. The tub of water, with floating apples which must be lifted out by the teeth alone, and the fork suspended from the ceiling, with its lighted candle at one end, and the apple, from which a bite is to be taken, at the other, will cause much merriment.

"Alas! I am poor—but hear my story." "Go on!" "When I spoke to Claudia about coming to see you, she told me it was useless—that her mother was the man of the home, and that I had better go to her. But I said: 'No! Your father may permit your mother to think that she is the man of the house, just to humor her, but I have seen enough of him to know that when a matter of importance comes up his strong will must always assert itself. His strength of character may not be brought out by little things, still—" "My boy," interrupted the old gentleman, patting him upon the shoulder, "I have known all along that you were not one of those ordinary dudes who are incapable of understanding what is going on around them.

"On September 13, the river steamer Milton returned from its up-river trip, having been unable to reach Circle City. Captain Hill reported the river so low as to prevent his reaching his destination. His cargo was landed on the river bank. The steamers J. J. Healey, P. B. Weare, Alice Belal and Marguerite are now up the river, but the prospects are that they will not be able to reach Circle City or Dawson. "Laws in regard to the inspection of vessels are entirely disregarded, as no inspector of hulls or boilers has visited this place. At least sixteen such vessels are now running in this part of Alaska. If I should seize them starvation would ensue to those who are depending upon these vessels to bring them provisions. At the same time hundreds of people are traveling on these vessels, which are without the safeguards to life that the law provides they shall have. "A deputy collector of customs is stationed at St. Michael who is required to attend to all customs business. Frequently there are several vessels in port discharging bonded goods at the same time. It is impossible for one man to attend to all this business. After leaving St. Michael there is no customs officer in charge of these goods. Vessels frequently get aground, and it is necessary to discharge their cargoes before they can be floated. Great opportunities are afforded to defraud the customs. There should be a customs officer on every vessel carrying bonded goods and provisions, and owners should be made to have the vessels inspected, as the law requires." Group Quickly Cured.

CURIOUS PHASES OF THE MAIL SERVICE SIXTY YEARS AGO. Rates on Ordinary Letters In England Were Almost Prohibitive—Adoption of the Penny Post and the Queer Arguments Against It. When Queen Victoria ascended the throne, there were no telegraphs in this country and few railways. The mails were forwarded by coach, and the postage rates were to all but the well to do prohibitive. It cost from 4d. to 1a. 8d. to send a "single" letter under an ounce in weight from one part of the kingdom to another. There were some 40 charges, varying according to distance, the average rate being 9d., or half the day's wage of a laborer. A "single" letter meant a single piece of paper (adhesive envelopes had not been invented), and the addition of a second scrap of paper made the letter a "double" one. The postage was paid on delivery by the recipient, and as no credit was given the incursion of a postman into a poor neighborhood was watched on all sides with fear rather than hope. Coleridge, the poet, saw a poor woman declining to accept a letter on the score of inability to pay. The good natured bard (doubtless with some difficulty) found the required ninepence, despite the woman's remonstrances. When the postman had gone away, she showed Coleridge that the letter was but a blank sheet of paper. Her brother had arranged to send her at intervals such a sheet, addressed in a certain fashion, as evidence that all was well with him, and she as regularly, after inspecting the address, refused to accept it. Some humorist on one occasion sent out large numbers of letters, each on a sheet as large as a tablecloth, all of which had to be delivered as "single" missives. This system practically stifled written intercourse among the working class and pressed with severity upon the middle class, but the rich and highly placed entirely escaped postal taxation. The privilege of franking covered the correspondence not only of ministers, peers and members of parliament, but of their relatives, friends and acquaintances. While in one year early in the queen's reign no less than 7,400,000 letters were franked, a single London firm paid annually £11,000 for postage and a writer in The Quarterly referred flippantly to "so slight and rare an incident in a laborer's life as the receipt of a letter." Among the "packets" franked was a grand piano. An army of clerks was employed to fix the charges COULD NOT EAT. A Woman’s Strong Constitution Wrecked. Effects of a Treacherous Disease. A Wonderful Case. From the Bulletin, Monroe, La. Mrs. Stephen Robbins is the wife of a prominent farmer living on a large and well-kept plantation just at the edge of Monroe, La. They have resided in this community but two years, having moved here from Illinois. The change was made for the benefit of Mrs. Robbins' health, her physicians having advised her that it was the only hope of her ever regaining her lost health. Three years ago this last winter," said Mrs. Robbins, "I was very sick with that most treacherous disease, the gripe. I had a very severe time with it, but was able to get out after being confined to my home several weeks. I think I went out too soon, for I immediately contracted a cold and had a relapse, which is a common occurrence with that disease. For several more weeks I was confined to the house; and after this I did not fully recover until recently. I was able to get out again, but I was quite a different woman. My former strong constitution was wrecked, and I was a dwindling mass of skin and bones. My blood was thin and I had grown pale and sallow. My lungs were so affected that I thought I was going into consumption. During my illness I had lost thirty pounds in weight. I tried to regain my strength and former good health by trying different medicines and physicians, but nothing seemed to help me. My appetite was gone, and when I ate the food it would not stay on my stomach. The only thing my physician said for me to do was to take a change of climate, and on his advice I came here. At first I seemed benefited, but to my sorrow it proved to be only temporary, and in a few months I was in my former condition. The color had left my cheeks, I had no energy, and life was a misery. I had become a burden to myself and family. Finally I happened to read in a newspaper of how Dr. Williams' Pink insects will keep moving round in that circle for hours without apparently noticing that they are getting no "forrader" on their journey. If the process be broken in two, the portions will reunite in a short time. The Norwegian peasants, when they meet one of these trains, will lay some article of their clothing, such as a belt or handkerchief, on the ground in front of it. If the process passes over it, it is regarded as a good sign, but if it makes a way round the reverse is believed. In the Moravian districts a similar experiment is supposed to foretell a good or bad harvest. — Popular Science. DECLINED THE INVITATION. A well known professor is noted for his absentmindedness.

Ancient Tombstone The custom of inscribing stones was in vogue among Romans. The Greeks however, in the case of men, but when a Roman duly buried near a highwave pressed with severity upon the middle class, but the rich and highly placed entirely escaped postal taxation. The privilege of franking covered the correspondence not only of ministers, peers and members of parliament, but of their relatives, friends and acquaintances. While in one year early in the queen's reign no less than 7,400,000 letters were franked, a single London firm paid annually £11,000 for postage and a writer in The Quarterly referred happily to "so slight and rare an incident in a laborer's life as the receipt of a letter." Among the "packets" franked was a grand piano. An army of clerks was employed to fix the charges to be collected, and the postal revenue remained stationary between 1815 and 1835, although in the same period the population increased from 19,500,000 to 25,600,000. Moved by this state of things, parliament in 1839 adopted Rowland Hill's proposal of uniform inland penny postage, which came into operation on Jan. 10, 1840. The writer possesses a copy of The Quarterly Review of 1839, in which a contributor (believed to be Croker) merely denounces the scheme. "Will clerks," he says, "write only to their mothers and girls to their mothers? Will not letters of romance or love, intrigue or mischief, increase in at least equal proportions? We doubt whether social and domestic correspondence will be more than doubled. A gigantic exemplification of the old proverb—Penny wise and pound foolish," etc. Macaulay says that the penny post, when first established, was the object of violent invective, as a manifest conviction of the pope to enslave the souls of Englishmen. It was described as sedition made easy." The postal authorities, who is 1784 had opposed the institution of mail coaches, were immaculate enemies of penny postage. The postmaster general of 1839, Lord Lichfield, based his objections on the curial ground that the building at St. Marina-le-Grand would not be large enough. The secretary, Colonel Maberler, constantly repeated, "This plan we know will fail." As we know, it succeeded, and the penny rate has been generally adopted Europe as well as in the United States. The number of letters rose from 10,000,000 in 1887 to 299,000,000 in 1847, and for the year ending on March 1897, about 1,900,000,000. The total surplus was in 1893 £1,659,510 and in 1896-7 £3,632,138. The number letters, which was in 1887 about 8 per head and in 1854 15 per head, is now 77 per bead. — Fertnightly Review. High Titles Without Cost.

He and a friend, another old professor, used to take a daily walk together and discuss matters quite beyond the comprehension of ordinary mortals. One day when the walking was very bad professor No. 1 was on his way to the corner at which he and his friend always met when he encountered a young student whose face he recognized dimly, having seen it every day for some weeks in his morning class. He accordingly hailed his pupil, who was wading through the mud to get across the street. "Have you seen my friend?" he asked. "Yes, sir," replied the student, pausing respectfully in the midst of a mud puddle to remove his cap. "He is at the corner waiting for you." "Good," replied the professor, looking over his spectacles. "I thank you. You may be seated." — Strand Magazine. An Analysis. "What did that young man call this poem?" asked the editor. "A satire." And that implies that he is showing the uselessness and absurdity of something." "I believe so."

No more elegant compliment was ever paid to a preacher than that of King Louis XIV of France to Jean Batiste Masillon, bishop of Clermont. Said he: "I have heard many great preachers, and the effect they produced on me was that I felt thoroughly satisfied with them. Every time I heard you I was dissatisfied with myself." VOICE OF THE PRESS. HOW THEY WORK IT AT WATSONVILLE. From the Pajaronlan. Rain, which would be welcomed here, is anticipated with dread by the farmers at Chino. There the factory buys by polarization, and if by reason of rain or other causes the sugar or purity sink below a certain level the beets are rejected by the factory, whilst entails a severe loss on the farmer. It appears that the farmers there will suffer this year, as according to the Chino Champion, on the 8th inst., some 44,000 tons were then in the field, and it seemed almost inevitable that rain should fall before many of them are harvested. The ANAHEIM GAZETTE waxes indignate over the situation and feelingly remarks: "It is outrageous that farmers be required to raise a crop of beets, bring them to successful maturity, and then have to lose everything because the factory refuses to accept of his beets. She was a dainty little thing, and the old gentleman appeared to be prepossessed in her favor right from the start, but there was evidently something that made him pause. "Look here," he said in his blunt fashion. "I like you and your references are all right. You run the typewriter as if you know all there is to know about it, and you don't look like a girl who would be sick every third day and want to get away an hour or two early all the rest of the time, but before I engage you I want to have a clear understanding with you on one subject." "Yes, sir," she replied, looking at him inquiringly. "Of course," he explained, "I expect you will be perfectly satisfactory, but if you are not there must be no doubt about my right to discharge you." "Certainly not." If I want you to go, I'll just have one of the clerks put a note on your desk or leave it with the cashier for you, and you're to take that as final." Naturally," she said, looking at him in some surprise. "You're not to enter any protest or file any objections," she persisted, "and most of all you're not to weep." Why, I suppose I can ask you why." You can't ask me a thing," he broke in. "If you get a note asking you to quit you're just to put on your things and walk out without a whimper or question of any kind. Is that understood?" "It is," she replied. "Have I your promise to live up to that agreement?" You have. But it is such an extraordinary request that I—I" Young woman," said the old gentleman impressively," I've been in business here for 50 years, and up to the time woman got a good foothold in the business world I was in the habit of engaging and discharging clerks as seemed to me best from the standpoint of my business. In an unguarded moment, however, I was induced to hire a young woman to run a typewriter for me, and after I found that she wasn't satisfactory to me it took me over eight weeks to discharge her. I left a note on her desk and she promptly came in and wept on mine. I turned the job over to various subordinates, but each time she came into my private office to do her weeping, and inside of a week she had the whole force wrought up to a point where business was being neglected, and she was still drawing salary just the same. Woman in business may be all right, but when it comes to getting her out of business somebody else can have the job. However, if you'll make a solemn promise to go without a single weep if you don't suit I'll try you." — Chicago Post. The Doucet Skirt. The doucet skirt shirred on fine cords around the waist, the shirring extending below the hips, is a popular feature of summer frocks. In organdie this fashion is particularly adaptable. A pretty "summer girl," who looked as if she had stepped out of a picture at a wedding in the country recently, had an organdie with a white ground, powdered with tiny pink rosebuds,the skirt made in this way and worn over a white taffeta slip. The waist had a little fullness gathered on the right shoulder and under the arm,the folds being brought down.

Master—Tombs, this is an example subtraction. Seven boys went down a pond to bathe, but two of them had been told not to go in the water. Now, can you tell me how many went Tombs—Yes, sir. Seven. — London Bits. Justin McGarthy is quite gray haired. He beard is bushy, and his gold rim spectacles impart a benign air to his face, which indeed well suits his kind manner. As for his energy, one would say that it was inexhaustible. He is a politician, a journalist, a novice and a historian. A Procession of Worms. In some of the Hungarian forests and the pine woods of Norway there exist a tiny, wormlike insect called the larva, of the genus tipula. During the month of July or early in August they together in large numbers prey to migrating in search of food or change of condition. When setting out on this journey, they stick themselves together by means of some invisible matter and form a huge serp-like mass, often reaching a length between 40 and 50 feet and several inches in thickness. As the sciara is on an average about three thirty-sides of an inch in length, with no prefectable breadth whatever, the pupure required to compose a continuous film of the size above mentioned is almost incalculable. Their pace is, of course, very slow, and upon meeting obstacle, such as a stick or stone, will either writhe over or ground sometimes breaking into two bodies this purpose. Guerin-Meneville, a celebrated naturalist, says that if the rear end of this wonderful snakelike session be brought into contact with the Norwalk Call. According to well-authenticated estimates there are 30,000 tons of beets in the fields at Chino, with 23,210 consumed. If such is the case we feel sorry for the beet growers of Chino. According to returns received from beets shipped from this section, the per cent is falling very rapidly since the rain some time ago, and the foggy weather that has since prevailed. Mr. Goodrich informed the writer recently that his beets had gone as low as ten per cent, and possibly they will go even lower than that. In that case beet growing is not quite so profitable to the farmer as it is to the sugar manufacturer. The bounty should be divided between the producer of beets and the manufacturer of said beets into sugar. These are our sentiments, what are yours? The Doucet Skirt. The doucet skirt shirred on fine cords around the waist, the shirring extending below the hips, is a popular feature of summer frocks. In organdie this fashion is particularly adaptable. A pretty "summer girl," who looked as if she had stepped out of a picture at a wedding in the country recently, had an organdie with a white ground, powdered with tiny pink rosebuds, the skirt made in this way and worn over a white taffeta slip. The waist had a little fullness gathered on the right shoulder and under the arm, the folds being brought across the breast diagonally and fastened with a ruffle on the left side, forming a curve around the collarless neck, which was left a little bare, the organdie forming a sort of poloero, which was drawn tightly across the figure and the waist defined by a high draped belt. The sleeves were made without being gathered and drawn tightly around the arms, except at the top, where a smart looking puff accentuated the shoulders. With this pretty frock was worn a leghorn hat tilted over on the side by a cluster of pink roses. Roses also formed a garniture on top, with loops of black velvet ribbon forming an aigret on one side.—New York Tribune. NOTICE TO CREDITORS. Estate of LEE LOVE, deceased.

Beside the hearth one winter night, Made rosy by the great log's light, That, flaming up the chimney dark, Hit every cranny, every nook, Upon the rug a little maid Bat curled in pose denure and staid. In pensive mood, with dreamy eyes, She sits, while up the chimney flies A thought with every fiery spark, Glinting and flashing through the dark, Till with a sigh prefound and deep She moves as one moves in her sleep. A rosy apple in her hand A weight of thought seems to demand. She taps it with a finger light, Then carefully she takes a bite, Another bite, now one, now two. The core is thus exposed to view. Another sigh! What can it be? My little maid, that alleth thee? Ah! What is this? Some incantation, Muttered with such recollection? Hark! As each seed her eight eyes see, These are the words that come to me: "One I love, two I love, Three I love, I say! Four I love with all my heart, Five I cast away." Here a tear rolls brightly down. What the secret she has won? Who can say? But just behind Sounds a voice so soft and kind: "Look again! Thou must indeed Find for me another seed!" Rosier her bright cheeks grow In the firelight's ruddy glow. Sure enough, a culprit seed Finds she in the core indeed. "From thy lips Iain would hear What the sixth one means, my dear." "Six he loves," she murmured low. And the firelight's flickering glow Two happy faces now disclose, With chicks a glowing like the rose. But here we'll let the certain fall, For the end is best of all. —Sacramento Union. A Brush With the Enemy. Hairdresser (with an eye to business) —Your 'air's getting very thin on the top, sir.

The Greeks only did this, however, in the case of their illustrious men, but when a Roman died he was duly buried near a highway, and on his tombstone was carved a suitable inscription, which in the majority of cases be gan with "Sta, viator" (stop, traveler). About 10,000,000 of the bovine species are now to be found in the Argentine Republic. They are all descendants of eight cows and one bull which were imported into Brazil in the middle of the sixteenth century. Fits Cured From U.S. Journal of Medicine Prof. W. H.
