Traded Wives.
A sensational case with unfunny side j
is reported from El Reno, Kan. A
couple arrived at the principal hotel ,
and registered themselves as man and .
wife. In fact, they were elopers, one
having run away from a wife and the
other a husband. In the course of a j
week the injured husband and the in
jured wife arrived from Kentucky and I
caused the arrest of the pair. Tliede- ;
serted man and woman had never seen
each other before, but while waiting
for requisition papers from Kentucky
they stopped at the same hotel, and
formed an acquaintance. Having a
common grief, they became interested
in each other, and, on the day the
requisition papers were to arrive, they
astonished the officers by eloping on
their own account, going to Texas,
where they are now supposed to be.
The first pair of elopers were released
from jail, and the Kentucky officer re
turned home, after informing the local
paper that he "hoped a rattlesnake
would bite him if he ever traveled a
thousand miles again to help a couple
of men trade wives."
Says a Philadelphia marriage license
clerk; "Probably 50 percent, of those
who come toi us for licenses to marry
imagine that before they can get the
necessary permit they will be com
pelled to tell all their family secrets.
One man who came in one day last
spring was actually prepared to under
go a physical examination to prove that,
his heart and lungs were all right. We
made out a license last week for a
young fellow who had prepared with
some pains evidently tire following his
tory ol' his bride, which he left with us: j
'Miss , aged 2S, in Phil, eight years,
Gather and mother Both Living Both
Willing grandfather and mother Both
dead. Mother 55 yrs old father 65 yrs
old grandfather 76 when he died grand- i
mother died when father was 18 yrs
old all from delaware Sussex Co.' "
Down in a West Virginia county is j
a grand jury which lias made a record
in the matter of liquor law violation ;
indictments. It is not the number of j
the indictments, although they reached
the generous total of 300, that consti- |
tutes the peculiarity of the case, but
the fact that the whole 300 were issued
against one man and on the testimony
of one man. Michael Callahan is
the man who is staggering under this
load of indictments for selling liquor
without a license, and the man who tes
tified against him said he had bought
a drink of Callahan every day, except
Sundays, for nearly a year. On this
testimony the grand jury issued the
300 indictments, one for each offense.
The experiment of putting a woman ;
in charge of a part of the street-clean- j
ing.work in Chicago pleases the sweep- ,
ers. One of them said, through an in
terpreter: "We like the woman. Slue
doesn't curse and swear at us. Man
foreman drive us a round* like slaves and
call us bad names She say:
How do?' and other nice things, and
then we do good work. She see it and
say so. That make us feel good and we
work more." You can get better work
even out of a dumb beast by being kind
:o him; much mare out of a man, as
this woman's dealings with unpromis
ing material abundantly show.
To those who are fond of fruit, but
have been scared by stories about the
causation of appendicitis, the following
from Dr. Seaver, of Philadelphia, may
be offered as words of comfort: "The
idea that a foreign body must neces
sarily be present has given way before
our more complete knowledge of the
disease." And again: "In a vastly
greater number of cases, however, it oc
curs through an eroded mucous mem
brane. The erosion is caused by masses
of fecal master, rarely by a foreign
body."

"I have learned that parrots and girls
sometimes talk too much and too care
lessly," remarked a pretty girl not long
back from the recent Nashville expo
sition to a Washington Star reporter.
"You see, I was doing the exposition,
under the most delightful auspices,
and meeting all sorts of people con
stantly. I was also collecting sou
venirs, everything from badges to food
specimens. One day some special cere
monies were going on, and the Wash
ington delegation had its headquarters
at the leading hotel. I was on hand,
making my everlasting collection of
souvenirs. Papa had introduced me to
a lot of besashed, badged and ribboned
men, and 1 was chatting away regard
less of names and titles. It was safe to
call everybody colonel. Pretty soon I
found myself talking to an exceedingly
good-looking gentleman with a pair of
merry eyes and an expansive forehead.
I didn't notice much else, because I
was so taken up with the magnificence
of his decorations, lie had a dream of
a gold-fringed sash crossed about his
breast, more masonic, military and so
ciety badges than I could count, and a
shining pair of epaulets, not to men
tion a plumed helmet. Visions rose be
fore me of possessing one of these epau
lets or at least one of his many dec
orations. The man fairly scintillated
gold, red and blue, and as he appeared
to be very deferential, with a wealth of
southern chivalry in his manner, I had
no hesitancy in making a bid for an ad
dition to my collection of souvenirs.
Summoning my most fetching smile, I
asked for an epaulet.
"My 'colonel' looked rather surprised,
and expressed regret that he was not
' DIDN'T KNOW HIM.
("Can't I Have a Single Ribbon, Colonel?")
at liberty to comply with my request,
adding that he was booked for a con
spicuous position in the parade to take
place later on.
" 'At least let me have one of tho6e
©tunning badges. You have no idea
what a cherished addition it would be
to my collection of NasJiville memen
tos.' The colonel, looking further
amused, replied that it grieved hiin
beyond expression to refuse me.
" 'Now, colonel,' said I, growing bold,
'don't say no to everything. Can't I
have a single ribbon of all your gor
geo us ri ess?'
" 'So sorry,' murmured the polite
colonel, 'but I'll tell you what I will
do. I'll get you some pieces of ribbon
corresponding in color to my badges.
It's the nearest. I can come t-o giving
the badges themselves.'
" 'All right,* I assented. 'But don't
be long, colonel, for I may have to go
any minu'te.'
"With a profound bow the colonel
withdrew, and just at that moment
pupa came up with a smiling remark
about my 'catching very big lish in
my conversational net,' after the man
ner of teasing fathers.
" 'Oh, lie was rather nice,' I retorted,
in an offhand manner. 'I have just sent
him to get me some ribbons. He re
fused utterly to part with any of his
own decorations.'
" 'Sent him to get you some ribbons?'
gasped my astonished father. 'Sent the
governor of Tennessee for ribbons?'
" 'Who?' I almost shrieked.
" 'Why, the governor; the governor of
this state. Child, that was Gov. Bob
Taylor you were talking to. He's re
garded as the most popular man in the
state, and he is famous for having won
his election by playing the fiddle on the
stump instead of making long-winded
campaign speeches. How dare you
transform the governor into a messen
ger boy, to do your shopping?'
"Papa and 1 groaned out a miserere
duct, and I simply flew from that hotel.
You don't suppose I waited to get the
ribbons? Not I. Another sight of that
man would have made me feel about
the size of a fly. Only think of it, a
girl ordering about a governor of a
great state with as li'btle concern as she
would have commanded a college fresh
man. I heard that the governor re
turned shortly afterward with the rib
bons and a box of bonbons, and he was
greatly disappointed because 1 was not
present to receive them. During the
remainder of my ©tay in Nashville L
devoted myself to keeping out of the
way of Gov. Taylor. Papa says when I
learn to keep my ears wider open and
my mouth closer shut I will be more
of a credit to the family name."

REPORTED FROM COURT.
Voluntary intoxication is held, in
Barn's vs. United States (I). C. A.pp.),
30 L. R. A., 405, to be neither an excuse
nor a palliation for the crime of murder.
In a note on t.hjs case a great num

question; "What intoxication will ex
cuse crime?"
An ordinance renewing the restric-
t one on the location and width of an el

by a former ordinance, is held, in Tu

proceedings for condemnation of the
right of way.
A suit to cancel invalid county war
rants was unsuccessful, in Ada county
vs. Bull en Bridge company (Idaho), 3G
L. 11. A. 307, on the ground that a rem
edy provided by statute to compel the
holders of the warrants to wage their
claims on them or else abandon them
was an adequate remedy at law, which
rendered the suit in equity for cancel
lation unnecessary.
Power to exercise the right of emi

the relocation would avoid payment of

SILENT SISTERHOOD.
Women Who Enter It Are Condemned
to Eternal Silence.
There is a refutation of all the slan
ders in regard to woman's ever-busy
tongue in a sisterhood which exists in
France and which resembles the famous
Trappist monks, who never speak.
These women when they voluntarily
enter the convent are condemned tc
eternal silence. It is the only sister
hood of its kind in the world and was
founded in the beginning of the nine
teenth century. The 50 women within
the walls never leave their chosen home,
never speak to one another, never lift
their eyes except in prayer or work and
THE SILENT SISTERS.
(Showing a Typical Group at Prayer.)
walk with their black cowls drawn over
their faces so that they can neither see
nor be seen. They are living yet dead—
year in and year out they exist, never
raising their eyes to the sky in their
wish to be delivered of the world and
its temptations. Strangers are shown
about the convent by nuns from an ad
jacent convent, which does not observe
the rule of silence.
The silent sisters rise at four a. m.
and till 7:30 tell their beads in the chap
el. The refectory is dark, gloomy and
unheated. Instead of a floor the feet
sink into sand. Each sister has a little
drawer where her tableware is kept.
Sometimes while at meals the superior
rings a bell and each sister is supposed
to pause instantly, with hands upraised
to the mouth perhaps, and cannot move
till the bell rings again. This is to in
culcate submission and patience.
These women, unlike other sisterhoods,
do no charity, never attending the sick
or suffering, teaching children or res
cuing wayfarers. They are engaged in
mortifying the flesh to purify their
souls.
TROLLEY CAR FENDER.
la Thin liiNtance It Performed Itn Mli-
MIOII Wondroasly Well.
This brief story is intended to
show that, while many good judges dif
fer upon the question of the efficiency
of the trolley car fender, it does in some
instances fill the bill. A few days agon
bicyclist was threading his way among
the wagons and pedestrians passing
hither and thither at a crowded corner
in Philadelphia. A trolley car had I
stopped at the south side of the inter- i
seeting street. The wheelman had just
succeeded in extricating himself from
a rather dangerous tangle of wagons
and put on speed in the endeavor to
cross the tracks ahead of the car. The
inotorman of the trolley car, however,
determined to take the right of way
and motioned to the cyclist to slow up.
The fellow on the wheel was stubborn
and kept on his way. The next mo
ment the bike and the car came to
gether. Then the niotorman's nerve
forsook him and he threw all his
strength into the brake. The wheel

jumped over the side of the fender as
neat as you please and the wheelman
coolly grabbed the top of the front
dashboard and kept himself in an up
right position. "1 want you to under
stand I had the right of way," said the
wheelman iu the fender. The motor
man was too much surprised to reply
and the wheelman rode off the other
side of the fender and up the street.
Artlonlar Hhenmatism.
It has been rcceutly proved that in
some eases articular rheumatism can
be relieved, if uot cured, by a simple de
vice. A piece of stovepipe is closed at
one end, mounted on four iron sup
ports, and lined with asbestos cloth.
The patient's affected arm or leg is
thrust through the open end, and the
interstices so packed with cloth that no
air can enter the cylinder. A row of
gas lights is now ignited under the
stovepipe. A heat of 2GO to 300 degrees
Fahrenheit is generated. The asbestos
cloth is said to prevent the burning of
the skin, which turns scarlet, and the
patient scarcely feels the inteuse heat.
Bis body is soon covered with profuse
perspiration. The heat is continued
from 20 to 30 minutes. Most gratifying
results have thus far followed this
treatment.

A Word With You...
It is worth your while to give attention to some rea
sons why you should be a reader, of "The Philadelphia
Press."
"The Press" is the greatest home newspaper of the
of the United States. Its record of each day's events, in
all parts of the world, is more complete than that of any
other paper. It has no space for sensationalism or any
thing tending to lower the moral tone.
No other Philadelphia paper has equal facilities for obtaining
prompt and accurate reports of news events, wherever they may
occur. Reporters for "The Press" are in every section of Phila
delphia every day; special correspondents of "The Press" are
stationed at every county seat and important town in Pennsyl
vania, New Jersey, Delaware and Manland, and at every news
centre in the United States and the old world.
No other Philadelphia paper equals "The Press" in
its special departments —the woman's page; the literary
page; the market page; the pages devoted to church news,
school news, society news, G. A. R. news, sporting m ws, etc.
"The Press" is an advocate of the principles of the Re
publican party, but it prints the news of all political events
more fully than any other paper; hence "The Press" should
be your paper, no matter what your political opinions are,
if you wish to be well informed. In a word, "The Phila
delphia Press" prints all the news all the time.
Send in your address. Sample copy of "The Press"
will be mailed free. If you are fair-minded, you'll read it.
"The Dally Press" is mailed to subscribers for s(>.oo a year
(50c a mouth) payable in advance; "The Sunday Press." $2.50 a
year; "The Daily" and "Sunday Press," SB.OO a year (70c a
month); "The Weekly Press," SI.OO a year. A liberal commis
sion Is allowed to persons who solicit subscriptions or to persons

no agents. Address "Tho Press," Philadelphia.
