A ROMANCE IN IT. An Tuteresting Contest In the Land Office, . and the Young Woman Wins. The final decision of the secretary of the interior in the land case of Francis kA Box and Jerry Dammon against Jessie er toes] at office ia 1801. The decision was in favor of Miss Sin- clair. Box and Dammon appealed; and the commissioner of the gemeral land office affirmed the decision of the local Saving the Droge of Water That Washed The latest event in the religions world is the death, funeral and cremation of the chiefest priest of the largest snd most powerful Buddhist sect in. Japan. ' The funeral was attended by many tens | of thousands of p ple from all over Japan. The person of this priest is so very sacred, and anything that has come’ | iu contact with it so very precious in its | merit and powerful in itsefficacy tosave, | that every drop of the water that was used in washing the body after death was eagerly sought for and gratefully re- ceived by the priests and laymen alike, Little bamboo joints were nsed as vials in which to receive and carry sway the precious fluid. This water will be used as drops of saving elixir when the body of some believer ia washed for its . burial—as 8 few drops of the attar of ‘roses might be used in a bath—and the one receiving this washing will be insur- ed a safe and happy entrance into the . Buddhist paradise. Sad, sad, unspeakably sad, and yet millions of these people believe this to be true. —Corrwspondence Independent. Hard Lines for the Marquis. That interesting member of the Brit ish aristocracy, the Marquis of Ailes bury, will be adjudged a bankrupt if ae Spied Advises. : ~The typical Americans have all been . western men, with the exception, let us ‘say, of Washington. Washington bad pot had much of European culture. The ~ qoalities that made him a great com- mander and a great t were ~ qualities which would ‘have made him ‘an equally great froutiersman. You cannot imagine Hamilton or Madison or Livingston or John Adams or the Pinckneys living tolezably on the fron- tier. They are pot Americans in the sense in which Clay snd Jackson and "Lincoln are Americans. We may wish " that the typical Americans of the past had had more knowledge, a more culti- vated appreciation of the value of what was old and established, a juster view of foreign nations and foreign politics; that they had been more like Webster and lees like Jackson, and we may hope that the typical American of the future will be wiser and better poised. But in the meantime the past is to be under- stood and estimated as the facts stand, aud only a thoroughly sympathetic com- prehension of these men, who have actu- ally been the typical Americans, will enchle us to effect that purpose. The fact that Clay rather than Webster, Jackson and not John Quincy Adains, | ed the forces which were really | ~ predomir~nt and distinctively Amer-| jcan in our development is coi mentury enough on any theory that ms ws either of the pecaliur sections of th. Atlantic | seaboard the principal or only theater of American hietory. —+Fornm. ~ Patrick—It's poor advice yo've been me.

The marquie has been gal- lautly endeavoring to prevent this con- summation since 1800, when bankruptcy proceedings were first commenced against him, and the delay secured is a. rare tribute to his cunning or that of his lawyers. His lordship’s chief lament in that he is married, and therefore unable to wed an heiress. He has no doubt of ' . his personal attractions or of the com- mercial value of his title. Yet these assets are unrealizable because, ago, when he was young and had on. he married Dolly Tes- ter out of a music hall at Brighton.— London Cor. New York Sus. Lively Bididieg For an Heirloom. The sum of $1,370 is rather a high price ‘to pay for a turkey dish, yet this is the figure at which one was knocked down to a purchaser in Penn township at the sale of personal property of Levi Geiss. ' The dish is a rare old piece of chinaware, ' beautifully ornamented, and was pur- | chased 20 years ago at a sale hy Mr. Geiss for $2.50. Each of his children ex- pressed a desire to have it, and as they could reach no agreement as to who should be the owner they decided to put it up at the sale of the other housebold effects. It was started at $10 and run , up rapidly at $20 a jump until it was awarded to the youngest son—Peter—at . $1,870.—Reading (Pa.) Dispatch.

Miss Sinclair, whose home was at Durand, was a schoolteacher. Her affec- tions bad been gained by a worthy young | man whose home is not far from the Sinclairs in Pepin connty. Both were poor. She determined to do ber part in giving herself and her future husband a start, and with this purpose she famons water reserve territory. The land she gets is worth about $4,300, hav- ing valuable pine om it. The young lady's friends state the wedding will take place in the near future. Secretary Hoke Smith's decision has settled that. — Eau Claire (Wis.) Special. J. G. B. and Roralty. A gentleman just returned to London from the racing and other festivities at Cannes calls my attention to a social feature of the royal gayeties in the past fortnight which will be of special inter- . est to Americans. Ome of the first acts of the Prince of Wales on his arrival at the Riviera was to make a personal call 4 upori a private citizen of the United States. Two days later the prince invit- ed him to lunch, an invitation which the - American was unable to accept, because he himsel! was that day entertaining ex- Empress Eugenie, Grand Duke Michel ‘and other royal gnests. It is a fact well known in all courts and salons on the ‘continent that no untitled individual in all Enrope is so cordially welcomed in the most exclusive circles of royalty and aristocracy as this man. His name is ‘James Gordon Benpett.—New York Son's London Latter, Rather Awkward, The readiness with which French ju- ries acquit husbands who take the lives of their wives’ lovers leads sometimes to awkward mistakes by too hasty spouses. An unlucky glazier was repairing the window of the boudoir of a iady whom her husband suspected. The master of the house entered and canght sight of the man behind a curtain. He pulled a revolver without a word and fired at the glazier, who is now in the hospital bad- ly wounded. The husband feels very foolish, but is willing to pay a big bill of damages. — Paris Letter. An Important Railay. The important strategic railway con- necting Tien-tsin with Shan-hai-Kwan, the town at the eastern foot of the great wall, where it runs down to the gulf of Lintong, is now completed, and the new Chinese minister to Londou travelad by it last week. He was thereby enabled to reach the sea and get a steamer for Shanghai instead of having to remain the winter in Tien-tsin or be carried down by chair nearly a thoussnd miles overland, Tien-tsin being frozen up from December until March.—London Times.
