CURIOUS BIGAMY CASE. George Mitchell, a saddler, of Wolverhampton, has been remanded at Sedgley on an extraordinary charge of bigamy. Four years ago he went through the form of marriage with a young woman named Hannah Maria Evans. Three years later Evans ascertained that the prisoner's lawful wife had only recently died. Realising that she was not lawfully married, she asked the prisoner to go through the ceremony again. He refused, and legal proceedings were instituted.

FATE OF A MISSING LINER. The Messageries Maritimes steamship Pacifique, which called at Lord Howe Island on her way from Sydney, reports that the missing Australian liner Ovalau arrived at Lord Howe Island on the 19th ult., with her forehold on fire. Passengers and crew were landed during the night, and early the next morning an explosion occurred on board the steamer, which sank. Nothing of her could be seen. Bad weather rendered it difficult for the Pacifique to eommunicate with the shore, but other Sydney steamers are due at the island, and the shipwrecked passengers and crew are expected to be brought on to Sydney by one of them.

160 LIVES LOST AT SEA. The Liverpool underwriters report that hope of -seven missing vessels turning up has practically been abandoned, 160 lives being involved. They are the British ships Corolla, Loch Long, Aristides, and Milton Park. the steamer Finsbury, the American ship Helen Brewer, and the German'barque August. Wreckage belonging to the Loch Long, from -Glasgow for New Caledonia, has been picked up, but the fate of the other vessels is a mystery. Twenty of the men belong to Liverpool.

THE SEA-SERPENT AGAIN. The sea serpent has made its appearance in St. Andrews Bay. On Sunday, says a Morning Leader correspondent, a number of fishermen and others were thrown into a state of great excitement by the appearanet- of a strange sea monster at the back of the old Castle. Its huge body moved undulatingly along. The part which shewed above water was about 12ft. long and 4ft. in breadth, of pure white colour. No head was seen, but the creature was thought to be of enormous size. Two fishermen put off in a boat to pursue the monster, but needless to say they did not capture him.

BABY IN A BONNET-BOX. In the small hours of Sunday morning a police- man on duty near the Great Eastern Station at Southend heard a faint cry, which he found pro- ceeded from a tin bonnet 1 ox standing on the pave- ment of the station-yard in the pouring rain. Upon opening the box he found a live male child about a week old, comfortably packed away with its feed- ing-bottle. The child was taken to Kochford Workhouse. In the box was a portion of a news- paper, but there is nothing by which the child can be identified.

MISSING BANK MANAGER FOUND. Mr. Morgan, the missing Southend bank manager, who was believed to have been drowned, and for whose recovery a reward had been offered, has been found by his friends at Dover. Mr. Morgan went out from Southend on his yacht alone some days ago for a cruise, and had not since been heard of, his yacht having been picked up by a tug and taken back to Southend. No explanation is offered as to how he went to Dover, nor as to the mystery of the abandoned yacht, but he was found by the police walking on the promenade, and his friends were communicated with. Mr. Morgan appears to have 'been staying at Dover for several days.

DEATH OF LADY SPENCER. Countess Spencer, who had been ill for some time. died at her London residence on Saturday, aged sixty-eight years. She was the daughter of Mr. Frederick Seymour and granddaughter of the first Marquess of Bristol. The Countess was famous for her beauty, and during the viceroyalties of her husband in Ireland was known in Dublin as "Spencer's Fairy Queen." She made the hospitalities oi "The Castle" famous, and during the troubled times of his 1882-85 viceroyalty there is no doubt Earl Spencer derived much assistance and comfort from her fortitude. The assassination of Lord Frederick Cavendish and Mr. Burke, within sight of the Viceregal Lodge, occurred on the day that Earl Spencer made his State entry into Dublin, and outrages, which it is not pleasant to recall, were of almost daily occur- rence for some time after that. Lady Spencer, however, never lost her courage, and remained at her husband's side to grace the Viceregal Court and adorn the social functions of Ir sh society. The King and Queen sent a message of condolence to Earl Spencer.

CLERGYMAN'S GALLANT RESCUE. A gallant rescue is reported from Enfield. Miss M. Pleasure, while punting her father across the River Lea at Enfield Lock, lost her balance and fell head foremost into the deep water. The Rev. Evelyn Burnaby, of the Enfield Lock Royal Small Arms Factory Church, happened to be cycling by and witnessed the accident. Leaping from his machine he gallantly dived into the river ad gripped the drowning woman and brought her to shore.

BOMB IN A PARIS CHURCH. An infernal machine, six inches long, and a little more than two inches high, exploded on Saturday evening in the Church of Belleville. The damage done was slight, and no one was hurt, which is regarded as surprising, considering the large number of people who go to church on the eves of great festivals such as All Saints' Day. One of the vicars of the church ascribes the outrage to an attempt on the part of anti-clerical demonstrators to avenge the successful resistance offered to them by the congregation recently in an attempt to disturb Divine service in the church.

ACTION AGAINST AN M.P. In the King's Bench Division, on Monday. Mr. Justice Kennedy delivered his reserved judgment in the action brought by Mr. B. J. Davis, of Johannes- burg, against Mr. Robert P. Houston, M.P. for the "West Toxteth Division of Liverpool, and senior partner in the well-known shipping business of R. P. Houston and Co., to recover £3,100 alleged to be due as commission for introducing Henderson's Transvaal Estates Company as purchasers of 131 mining claims in the Kriigersdorp district of the Transvaal belonging to the defendant. Mr. Houston denied that lie had agreed to pay the plaintiff com- mission, and said that if his manager did it was without Ins authority. lie further denied that the plaintiff introduced a purchaser, declaring that he had already sold the claims for £ 29,000 to a Mr. D. A. Mavor, a London stockjobber, who resold them to the Henderson Company for £ 31,000. His lordship, while entirely rejecting the allega- tion that the sale to Mavor was a dishonest device to deprive the plaintiff of his commission, found that the plaintiff had discovered a willing and capable purchaser, and had informed the defendant of the fact prior to the sale to Mavor. The plaintiff had done his work and had earned his stipulated reward. Judgment must, therefore, be entered for the plaintiff, with. costs. Plaintiff having agreed to accept a commission on the amount for which the claims were sold to Mavor, judgment was entered for zC2,900, with costs.—A stay of execu- tion was granted.

A STRANGE ELECTRICAL PHENOMENON. An extraordinary electrical disturbance, the nature of and reason for which are entirely un- explained, was felt on Saturday over the South of England and Ireland, in France, and in the United States. The disturbance was confined entirely to the earth—that is to say, overhead wires were not affect(-d--and so far as can be ascertained is attri- buted to seismic movements and atmospheric pheno- mena. Its results were curious and erratic. France was completely isolated all day, except for a brief interval between sunset and half-past five o'clock, when the cables suddenly resumed their normal state, and with equal suddenness went wrong again. The strange feature is that internal communi- cation was not interrupted. The English cables across the Atlantic worked badly all day, and com- munication with America was fitful. All the American cables were upset, and under the best conditions were only able at certain portions of the day to receive four or five words per minute. The disturbance was of such a nature as telegraphists have not known for many years. There appears to have been no damage caused to the wires, but the delay was so serious and so far beyond the resources of the electrical engineers for prompt remedy that the Post Office issued notice of delay, as is its custom in serious breakdowns. The effects of the magnetic disturbance were felt in London about noon. and continued with un- diminished severity until five in the afternoon, and during that period the postal telegraphic service was completely disorganised, and caused great in- convenience in commercial circles.

Forty-eight persons, passengers and crew of the Japanese steamer Tokai-Maru, have been drowned in collision with a Russian steamer. The Kin" has given Staff-Captain Rawson, of Portsmouth Dockyard, the Royal Victorian Order for smartness in docking the Victory after her recent collision. One stormy night some time ago a thief broke into the house of a wealthy banker's widow at Rome, and stole iF,105,000 worth of Italian bonds. The thief, a young carpenter named Musso, has been arrested in Paris, where he has dissipated in extravagance all but £4,000 of the money. Lord Goschcn has been elected Chancellor of Oxlord University. In the presence of his parents M. Papazoglu, reputed to be the wealthiest man in Bulgaria, fatally shot himself. Living under the same roof with him a merchant in Germany has three mothers-in-law and their mothers, as well as his own mother, his third wife, and four grown-up daughters.

VOLUNTEER RETURNS. I The annual return of Volunteer corps of Great Britain, just issued, shews that the total of all ranks enrolled in 1902 was 268,550, against 288,476 in 1901, while there were present at inspection 208,033, against 242,103. The number of efficients in 1902 was 256,451, compared with 281,062 in ISOl. The officers who qualified for the special grant numbered 7,522, against 7,574, and the total of proficient officers and non-commissioned officers was 23,277, against 23,167.

A LIBEL ACTION THAT FAILED. Mr. John Mackinnon Robertson, an author and candidate for Parliamentary honours, in the King's Bench Division, sought to recover from the pro- prietors and publisher of the Lexis an I Yorkshire JMtrcury damages for libel contained in the issue of the paper dated February 4th, 1903. The matter complained of was a paragraph in the London letter of the defendants' paper alluding to the connection of the plaintiff with certain publications, and asking if the people of the Tyneside Division of Northumberland, for which constituency he had been adopted as the Liberal candidate, consented to him as the only alternative to a Conservative.— The jury returned a verdict for the defendants.

BABY SUFFOCATED BY A CAT. Joseph Dove, a Hartlepool blacksmith, owing to an attack of toothache, sat by the fire in his kitchen during Saturday night. His eldest daughter slept in the same room with a five months old baby. Looking round during the night, the father saw the cat on the infant's face, and threw it off, but on picking up the child found that it was dead. The coroner's jury returned a verdict of death from suffocation, caused by the cat lying on the child's face and chest.

WIDEAWAKE POACHERS. An amusing case has been before the Crewe magistrates. William Henry Smart was charged with poaching. The prisoner and another man, escaping from the police, ran on to the North- western main line, near Crewe. They had two bags of rabbits. The police followed, but they were powerless to touch the men on the railway. The poachers, evidently knowing the law, refused to budge from the line, and kept the police at bay for nearly two hours. The police tried all they could to persuade them to leave the rail- way, but they declined to go. The police then climbed a signal-box and telephoned to the railway detective police. When the railway police arrived they seized the rabbits and arrested the men for trespassing on the line and exposing themselves to danger. The prisoners were now fined 40s. and costs.

DEATH OF MR. S. MACASKIE, K.C. Mr. S. Macaskie, K.C., Recorder of Sheffield, died at his London residence on Monday night. The deceased had been ill since August. Death is believed to be due to Bright's disease. Mr. Stuart Cunningham Macaskie was but fifty years of age. Educated at the Grammar School of his native town, Berwick-on-Tweed, he studied for the Bar at Gray's Inn and Inns of Court. He was one of the most brilliant students of his years— 1876-1878—carrying off the Bacon, Arden, and Barstow scholarships, the Lee prize, and a first-class studentship and certificate of honour. Called to the Bar at Gray's Inn in 1878, he joined the North- Eastern Circuit, and in 1901 became Recorder of Doncaster, the following year receiving a similar appointment at Sheffield. Mr. Macaskie had an ambition to enter Parliamentary life, and contested in the Conservative interest South Leeds against the late Lord Playfair in 1885, and Stirling Burghs against Sir H. Campbell-Bannerman in 1895, but was unsuccessful in both instances. He was a well-known and popular Bencher.

FATAL SEQUEL TO A FIGHT. George Raven, eighteen, labourer, and Bertie Whiting, eighteen, labourer, both residing at Earls Colne, Essex, have been charged, at Halstead Police-court, with the wilful murder of Alfred Bragg, of Halstead.—Henry Headingham, a brick- maker, stated that he was in the Bird-in-Hand, a beerhouse between Earls Colne and Coggeshall, with deceased, when the accused came in and played parlour quoits with Bragg. The latter quarrelled with another man named Olley Brown, and at closing-time the two men fought. Bragg knocked Brown down, and Raven called out, "Don't hit Olley down." The crowd closed on Bragg, who ran off, pursued by the two prisoners, striking at him with sticks. Next morning Bragg was found by witness dead in a field about a mile from the scene of the fight. His head and face were wounded and covered with blood.—Inspector Lurris said he found deceased's stick at Raven's house. During the hearing Whiting fell down in a fainting condi- tion.—The prisoners were remanded for a week.

ALLEGED CRUELTY TO A HORSE. Charles Aldous, aged eighteen, shop assistant, of Whitehorse-road, Croydon, was committed for trial at Croydon, on Tuesday, for maliciously wounding a chestnut gelding by stabbing it in the body and shoulders with a knife at Carshalton. Mr. Joe Earris, a comedian, of Clapham, described how he was on an omnibus riding outside. Prisoner, a passenger, was talking to the driver when the near side horse stopped in consequence of the heavy state of the road. Defendant whipped and lashed it several times, and the animals proceeded. The horse in question, however, stopped again, and I witness then saw the prisoner get down and strike the horse in the shoulder and stomach with some- thing shining. Suddenly witness saw blood on the road. He then got off the 'bus, and, with the conductor, examined the horse, and fcu-id eight incised wounds. The driver said he saw the lad touch the horse, but did not know he had a knife. The boy admitted that he struck the animal with a penknife.

A MIDNIGHT VISITOR. Edward Goulding, described as a window cleaner, and giving an address at King's-road, Chelsea, was charged, before Mr. Garrett, at the South-Western Police-court, London, with burglariously entering the studio of Mr. Leighton Maud, an artist, Albert Bridge-road, with intent to steal.—The prisoner, it was said, visited the studio at midnight, Mr. Maud being then away. Having knocked at the door and receiving no answer, John Miller, the caretaker, heard someone open the window, and found the prisoner concealing himself in the lavatory. '^mle Miller was dressing in preparation for eventualities the prisoner made off, but was pursued by the care- taker and eventually stopped.—His defence was a singular one. He was, he said, a friend of Mr. Maud, having visited the flat many times before, and passing the night as a guest.—Mr. Maud declared that there was not a shadow of foundation for the suggestion, the prisoner was a stranger to him.—Prisoner: Do you recognise this cap, the one you gave me ?—Mr. Maud Possibly I often give old clothes away.—Prisoner (addressing the magi- strate) I can, if necessary, mention the pieces of furniture in the studio.—Mr. Garrett: Of course you can you were in the studio last night.—The caretaker also stated that the prisoner was unknown to him, and to allow of inquiry a remand was ordered. At Sligo Quarter Sessions, Mr. F. W. Banks,

customs official at Sligo, was committed for trial on a charge of embezzling the sum of z25,677, the property of his Majesty's Customs. Sir Edwin Henry Egerton, K.C.B., has been appointed British Minister at Madrid. In the course of his long career in the Diplomatic Service, which he entered in 1859, lie has served in all the great cities of Europe, except Rome and the Spanish capital. Hannah Parker, aged sixty-two, residing in Allcroft-road, Kentish Town, has died from a broken heart. Her husband expired last week, and the woman, in her grief, refused food. This brought on an attack of syncope. Harold Booth, a draper's assistant, shot himself before a looking-glass in a hotel at Alton, where he was staying. He told several persons he had deter- mined to destroy himself if he failed to get work. A verdict of felo de se was returned.

FACTS AND FANCIES. BIRDS are blessed with large appetites. The robin can easily devour two-thirds of its weight in earth- worms in a day. NATIONAL FEET. The English foot is short and fleshy, while the Scottish foot is large and thick, and the Irish flat and more square. The French foot is apt to be meagre, narrow, and bony; the Spaniard, thanks to the Moorish blood, has a small and delicately- curved pedal extremity; and the Arab foot is charac- terised by such a high arch that a common saying is 10 the effect that "a stream can run under his foot." The American foot is often very small. A peculiar characteristic of those people whose lives, for generations, have been passed chiefly in the saddle is that the foot is not only well arched, but has the ankle very high also—so high, in fact, that walking is neither easy nor agreeable. The Mexicans shew this characteristic. PREACHERS AND THEIR TEXTS. Nervousness sometimes plays an important part in the pulpit, and is accountable for some curious mistakes. A preacher, no doubt under this influence, once gave out his text: Heaviness may endure for a joy, but night cometh in the morning." Was it the same preacher who, in announcing the Psalms for the day, from sheer nervousness said: "The 119th day of the month, part of the 24th Psalm ? A young Roman Catholic curate was preaching his first sermon, and chose for his text the miracle of the loaves and fishes. But he said: "And they fed ten people with ten thousand loaves of bread and ten thousand fishes." Thereat an old Irishman said: "That's no miracle; I could do that myself," which the priest overheard. The next Sunday he announced the same text, but had it right this time—"And they fed ten thous'aii<l people on ten loaves of bread and ten fishes." He waited a second, and then, leaning over the pulpit, he said: "Could you do that, Mr. Murphy?" Murphy replied: "Sure, yer riverence, I could." "And how could ye do it?" "Sure, yer riverence, I could do it with what was left over from last Sunday AIR AND ARTIFICIAL LIGHT. Some investigations made by a well-known medical authority on the subject of ventilation have furnished interesting particulars concerning the effect of artificial light on the air of our rooms. A man might exist for an hour in a fair-sized room, hermetically sealed, if he had no light burning. Place a lighted candle in that room with him and his existence will be shortened by fifteen minutes if he had a lamp instead of a candle, in order to make himself more comfortable with additional light, he would live only half-an-hour; and if he had two good gas burners, he would scarcely have time to make his will, for he would not live more llian five minutes. It therefore follows that we should take the precaution to have more ventilation as soon as we "light up." AN ANCIENT MOUND BUILDER'S GRAVE. While excavating for a cellar in Marietta, Ohio, a few hundred feet from the famous Mound Cemetery, the workmen dug into a mound builder's grave, which was supposed to be 2,000 years old. The grave was covered with three layers of heavy stones.with three inches of fine white sand between each layer. When the third stone was raised, the bones of a large man were discovered. In the bones of each hand were solid copper axes. The bones crumbled on exposure for an hour. Large bits of charcoal were also found in the grave, as were the bones of wild animals, supposed to have been deer. The grave was walled in on all sides, and also the top and bottom, with heavy stones. The body of the mound builder sat in an upright position, with the hands in a position as if supporting the body. The grave was 2 £ ft. wide by 2^ft. long and 5ft. deep, and the stones surrounding it were easily broken with the fingers, as they were very soft. THE UNFOLDING OF BABY'S MIND. A kindergarten magazine supplies the following notes on mental development, based upon obser- vations made on a child from birth to the age of one year: The newly-born child has practically no mind, but during the first month of its life the senses of taste and smell, sight and hearing, begin to develop. In the second month, the child is more sensitive to sound, and observation is born. When the sixth month is reached, pleasurable emotions and grief are exhibited. In the eighth month, the first expression of displeasure is observed in the ninth, the power of imitation. When ten months old, the child shewed memory; and at the age of eleven months she first spoke intelligent words. In the twelfth month she learnt obedience and other qualities shewed signs of activity. THE NUMBER NINE. It is bv nines that Eastern presents are given when made on a scale of great magnificence. "To the nines" expresses a state of perfection, as "dressed up to the nines." Chaucer, Heywood, and Shalrspere speak of a nine-days' wonder; a cat has nine lives: a tailor is the ninth part of a man; Shakspere makes Hotspur cavil on the ninth part of a hair; it was a number of magical power dear to witches, as we read in "Macbeth": Shakspere, again, has the "Nine Sibyls of Old Rome"; we have the games of nine men's morris and ninepins; the butcher bird is called the nine-killer, from its habit of impaling nine of the animals on which it feeds before it begins its meal; the nine of diamonds is called the curse of Scotland; there were nine Muses; nine planets; nine orders of angels—angels, archangels, virtues, powers, principalities, dominions, thrones, cherubim, seraphim; the Etruscans had nine gods who alone had the power of hurl- ing thunderbolts; the Novensiles were the nine Sabine gods; the Novendial ashes were the ashes of the dead buried on the ninth day; the nine worthies were Hector, Alexander, Julius Cresar, Joshua, David, Judas Maccabaius, Arthur, Charlemagne, and Godfrey of Bouillon; there were, too, nine worthies of London, whose chronicles were written by R. Johnson in the sixteenth century. Every ninth wave. as Tennyson, sings, is said to be the largest; and last, not least, possession is nine points of the law. Pythagoras made three the perfect number; nine was consecrated by Buddhism, and is revered bv the Moguls and Chinese. The peculiar property of number nine from a mathematical point of view is that when it is multiplied by another number the digits composing the product, when added together, give nine. LUCKY STONES. It is said that the agate quenches thirst, -and, if put into the mouth, allays fever. Amber is a cure for sore throats and glandular swellings. Cats-eye is a charm against witchcraft. Coral is a talisman against thunder and evils by flood and field. Diamonds produce somnambulism and spiritual ecstasy. Emeralds, friendship and constancy. Garnets preserve health and joy. The onyx is apt to cause terror to the wearer, as well as ugly dreams. Sapphires impel the wearer to all good work. The topaz is said to be preventive of lung trouble. and to impart strength and promote digestion. BULLS AND BLUNDERS. A Professor of Law at Oxford delivered himself thus at a lecture: "The student launched on an ocean of law skips like a squirrel from twig to twig, vainly endeavouring to collect the scattered members of Ilippolytus." A learned English counsel, in proceeding against a false witness, declared: "Gentlemen, my clients are not to be bamboozled. They adopted a bold course. They took the bull by the horns, and indicted him for j'erjan; Whether they took the bull by the horns or not, he was undoubtedly in court. After the defeat of the Armada the Mayor of Coventry was deputed by the citizens of that loyal borough to present an address of congratulation to Queen Elizabeth. The worthy magistrate in the course of his speech remarked: "When the Spanish Armada attacked your Majesty, ecod they got the wrong sow by the ear. The Queen graciously accepted the compliment in the spirit in which it was meant. An English magistrate, on being told by a vaga- bond that he was unmarried. promptly informed him: "That's a good thing for your wife." A Portuguese Mayor enumerated among the marks by which a, drowned man might be identified when found "a marked impediment in his speech." A Shropshire raper observes: "Those who know old Mr. Brown personally will regret to hear that he was assauli ed in a brutal manner last week, but was not killed." Akin to is the statement in an Edinburgh journal "We regret to find that the announcement of the death of Mr. Wilson was a malicious fabrication." In a popular History of France we are told: "It is extremely doubtful whether the Prince Merovaeus (ver existed at all, but lie had a son, Childeric, whose existence is well authenticated." Another historical writer graphically describes a warrior "lighting like Samson of old, who, armed only with the jawbone of an ass, put a thousand Philistines to the sword." Over a hundred embalmed bodies of officers and men who had died in the Philippin'S were conveyed on a recent voyage to the United States by the United States transport Sumner. To the memory of Mr. Spencer Percival, who when Premier in 1812 was assassinated in the lobby of the House of Commons, a church is to be erected at Ealing. The foundation-stone was laid on Saturday.
