Cutlets and stakes should be fried as well M broiled, but they must be put in hot butter or lard. The new ahirtwajst. proper shows elaeTca %ightly fnll, raised at the top amd S.Tiished with narrow stajrched cuSg. Fine plea-tings of lawn a'cd Swiss, as well Ø6 much Engrl-iah einb'poid''€iry, will be used on summer silk a'nd mobadr gowns. Cakes in which the yolks of eggs are used require lesa heat than cakes made with the whites, since the yolks are so rich they burn quickly. If you would have white hands keep the circulation atimnla.ted by rubbing the back of one by the palm of the other. Do this severa,! times a. day. Pure glycerine is too atromg for the majority of skins. Diluted with three parte aqua. pura. or rosewater it will be found soothing and sofbening to nearly all skins. Batter Pudding with Onions Peel OTiions of a. uniform size, and lay them side by side in a. greased pie-diah till the dis-h is ailed.

People Who Irritate Us -ine worst phase of the life of a, really inlov-able nature is that it haa a. persistent faulty of exciting everything that is di9- aa'reea'ble in ourselves.

Try ae we will, our sweet-tempered self seema to keep a.wa.y, a,nd it is only when wo ha.ve' divided aud put a. good deal of diata.neo between our- selves and tho&e that so irritate us that we see how unpleaea-nt we can not only feel, but ma-ke othera feel. Thinkera have more tha.n OBce expressed tbeir belief that it is often wiser to keep separated from those who rouse a,ll disa-gree- a-b-le a-ttributee in us, fcr, ma.ybe, our very presence has the same effect upon them. It is aeon made apparent whether our inter- ccurae with them is likely to ca.hn and make them more lovable, and if this be the case they soon fail to exert an irritating' enact upon us.

STORY FOR TO-DAY.
STORY FOR TO-DAY. The Watton Ghost. I Speaking of ghosts," said Donald M'Enight, 'I had a queer experience not long ago." "Tall it," responded his friend; it approaches the hour when ghost stones are meet elective, and I can promise you that you will never nnd me in a more believing mood than at present." "Thank you! I don't doubt it," paid Donald, drily. "Besides, the nre is burning well and the tobacco is good. Bring in your ghost. When and where did you see him?" "It was a<t the Wantons. last fall. Nod Walton's engagement to Louiae Thuraton had just come out, and I was one of the house party invited down to the Old Wilton home- stead to celebra.te it. There were eighteen of ue, a.U told—a, number to da:ont any hostess but Mrs. Waltom. Besides her natural qualin- cation, she had any quantity of room to stow us a-way in apparently. It's a beautiful old house, and very httepesting, too. It has a great deal of fine old carving and a, dungeon cell, and other scch conveniences." And a. ghost?" Yes, a ghost. Old Mr. Waltcm told us about him one evening. The glory dated back to the time before t.be Revolution. There lived with the Waltons of that generation a certain Stephen Trelease, a mysterious aort of fellow. Stra,'ngely enough, considering how they inquired into the history of strangers in those days, no one knew much. of anything about him. He led a retired, studious life that gave him a bad reputation among people who had not outgrown their belief in witchcra-ft. In fact, they seemed eo ready to punish him beforehand for the misdeeds which they were sure he would commit if they only ga,ve him a chance that Bbenezer Walton. who was too self-willed a man by all accounts to share even his neighbours superstitions, brought Trelease home with him, and established him there. He occupied a. large, low room under the eaves at the extreme end of the west wing, a.nd there he read and studied and experi- mented and added to his uncanny reputar tioR in viarious ways. The servants were always afraid of him, but he was evidently a harmtess studios fellow and a very grate- ful one. "The little Revolution waa brewing, and this house was a rendezvous for the patriots, a<nd there were plo-tting and planning and important papers were from time to time brought there for safety. They were hidden in a secret closet, whose location was known to only two persons—Walton and Treleasc." "Didn't Mrs. Walton know?" asked Bemis, practically. "There was no Mrs. Walton then to know it. She had died some years before. Well, among Mary's admirers was one whom Tre- lease especially disliked. He was a young Englishman, an attache of the governor's, and, Treleaeo belierved, a. spy. So, when the ruddy ga.llajit appeared Stephen's tall ngure and dajk, spare face were not far in the back- ground. We need not beMe've tha.t the visitor had deigns upon anythin'g but the daughter of the house to imagine that be found this surveillance unpieasa-nt, and that he was ready to reaent it. "A crisis came one day, when Ebenezer Walton was away from home. He had gone to a, conlerence with other of the leading ooloniata. Andiroa ba<d been making himself obnoxious, and I suppose it was a. relief to them to get off steam at each other, even if nothing further oa.me of it. "As the Englishman rode up to the door Trelease met him. 'Master WaTton is not hero;' he said, with a look that hinted tha.t. the guest might save himself the tremble of dismounting. But he swung himself from the saddle, with the remark that then he would chat with the daughter—a reply by no means soothing to Stephen's ears. He hovered around while the two sat and talked in the very room in which the story was told us, a.nd at length the guest asked hia hostess to show him the house. He had heard much of the nne view from the upper wmdows; and was it true that there were blind rooms in the oell&r which a stranger would hardly and? They were moving towards the door when Trelease interrupted. In the master's absence his ho'use must not be ahown to strangers,' said he grimly. His look and tone were a challenge. In the master's absence.' said Mary, gravely, his daughter has his house in charge and shows it to whom she will.' She took up a silver candlestick to light them in their descent. "'Faith,' laughed the visitor insolently, 'it would seem that the master is here after all.' Master or no nraattcr,' returned Treleaee, 'this house is nott open to spies.' Ah!" cried the other, with a quick motion of his hand to his sword; then, reoovermg himself, but that is a game at which two ca.n play. A gemtleman.' with a wave of his ha,nd towards Tpeleaee, who had turned very pale, 'who is admitted secretly to the Governor's ho'uee a.nd oonde letters in cypher to England ghcmid be slow to charge Others with bad faith. if harm beffall your fa,tbeT, and he be seized as a traitor to the King, you need not look fair for the hand which laid the toils.' Trelease sprang at him with an articulate cry,, but the other eluded hi m and passed out of the house. Stephen did not follow him. He stood there, white as the ghost he after. wards became, before Mary. Her eyes blazed. My father's kindueas is well re-paid,' sa;id sbe. If we have a traitor among us it is well that we know it.' "He lifted his head and looked at her-a long, silent look. Perhaps she felt its reproach, for she became even more angry under it. Perhaps even now it is too late.' she cried. My fa.tiher may be in danger.' "'Stop!' he commanded, catching her by the wrist as she sprang towards the door, I will defend myself to you, but here a.t your own nreside ia the proof of my good faith.' "He had kept a. cruel grip of her wrist, and as he nnisbed she fell down fainting at his feet. When she recovered she was alone. She never saw Stephen Trelease again. His 'body was found two days after- wards with a sword thrust through the heart. No one could ever prove that the quarrel with the Englishmam was renewed, with this result, but Mary Walton, as she tella the story in her dLary clearly thinks such was the case." Well?" said Bemis, as the other paused to re-light his pipe. Wel! resumed Dona.Id, the night this happened—tha.t is, the ru!?ht of the day of the RnglL&h'ma.n's viait—old Walton's horse ca-me home riderJesa, and his Blaster was found by the roadside stricken down by apoplexy. The secret closet ha.<3 never in ail these yeaxs been found again. When he told 'na the story Mr. Wilton stopped here, and then ea.id elowly, In it, if his story was true, lies the proof which Stephen Trelesse has been waiting all these years to have clear him o-f the suspicion cast upon him.' After a.H, you ha-ven't Baid dennitely whose ghost it is that the Waltona have for a lodger," aajd BemIs. "Just wh&t we reminded Mr. Wa.Iton," re- plied Doma.kL It was Stephen Trelease's apirit, which could not rest under tk auspi- cion cJ such ingratitude. He came to no pa.rt of the house but the room he occupied during his lifetime, but there he waited for someone to whom he couM reveal the wherea.bouta of the lost closet, but no one had yet learned it." "Mr. Walton took from the cabinet an old fashioned ailfer ca-ndleatick, and lit the ta.per, sa-ying: 'Bere is the very cajidleetidk with which Majy Walton proposed to light the EngJishnuLn into the da-rl: corners of the house more than a. hundred yeara ago. 'One has only to go up the centre eta-ire a-Iong the upper haH, and up a. few steps to the left, and enter the west Toom, where Stephen Trelease is waiti.ng.' He Ijfted the candlestick, and glanced inquiringly a,t Effie Blaisdell. She simply squealed, 'Winlock?' Be didn't feel that it was m his line. 'Carter?' The doctor laughed genia.IIy—a. ma-teTiaJistic laugh. 'Miss Brown?' 'Miss Webb?' Arthur? Sa.mbo? Wha,t!' he exclaimed, will no one meet this man and set his spirit a.t rest?' Just tihen Ixyuise Thurston a'rose. Give me the light.' aaad she. She came forward to take it. She was paler than oeuaJ, anft her eyes ha.d a. blank, fa.r-a.wa.y gaze. I heard Dr. Carter quote Keata. eotto roce:— 'And da.res not look behind, ocr all the ehajTn is ned.' '"Crive me the light.' Rbe said ag-in. "Nod laid hda hand on her a.rm. Don't go, Louise.' he begged. Her aaiewer was a. ewrft movement towajda the door, and we watched her aaoend the eta.irs and the glimmer of her light die' appeared. Then we waited a.nd waited. I think we all Mt & little q'oeer for some reason or other, a.nd we lea-med how long minutes can be. Fa.ther,* saad Ned, &M?ai?€ in tihe?door- ?ysty ?a?a<??!??a((i(??J?it?? going u.p there. Louise has been gone uf- teen minutes.' Let's a.U go,' sa.id Winlock. I think with such support I might find courage myself to peep into a. haunted chamber.' 'Amd, perhaps, all together we might find cocrage to come a-way again. Miss BIaJsdell thinks that will be the gTeo.t dimculty," said Dr. Carter. "He and I followed Ned closely as the latter: sprang up the stairs and hurried down an uulighted pa-ssage-way where an occasiona,! cobweb hang from the uncovered beams to a low door. Ned sprang forward, for there lay Louise senseless with her head on her aj'm, and the other outstretched hand white in the "He caj-ried her out ajid laid her on a. broad lounge in the upper hall. When she came to, her nrst question was: Which of you was the ghost?' You yourself. Miss Thurston.' suggested Winl<x;k. You were the only one that I sa-w.' And I am sure you scared us just as much as if you had been one,' added Erne. 'Ah, peTha-ps,' rejoined Louise, but who was the ghcst whom I sa.w? It was very well done; the actor need not blush for his work.' Miss Thurstoc. you do us too much honour,' said Dr. Carter; 'you suspect us a.t once of grea.t dramatic a.bility and a.n ethereal type of oharaetef which we do not possess!' You are all charmingly modest.' smiled Lonise. Was..no one of you a.baent from the parlour from the time I left it until you all ca-me up to the west room?' She looked at Ned for an answer. No one, LouLge,' said he. I 21m sure of it.' She turned a little pale. Then it wa'J-what was it that I sa.w?' Thwt is what we all want to know,' sa-id Mr. Walton. Who was it whom I felt-whom I M,w standing there at the edge of the pa.t<"h of moonlight? When I once Ra.w him I couldn't look a,wa.y, and then be caught my wri&t amd held it until I fainted. Who was it in the west room?' "'It was your fancy. Louise.' said Ned. 1/ouise pushed ba.ck her sleeve and looked a.t her wrist. My fancy hae strong nngers,' said she. She held out her wrist and, by Jove, Bemus," said M'Knight lea.ning forward there was a red mark on it, not imlike nnger prints!" She bruised her wrist when ehe fell," said Benrue. I suppose she did," said the other, settl- ing back in his chair again. Well?" said his friend suggestively, after a silence of a, minute. Well," responded Donald, Louiee sat there it was evident that ehe was struggl- ing to recall some vague memory. Suddenly she arose and laid her hand on Ned's sleeve. I remember now,' she eaid I know where the missing paper is hidden.' She led the way back to the parlour and we all followed. The room had a nne old fireplace, wide and deep, and a- nnely ca-rved mantel. The nre'plaee had a metallic ba<'k, bear- ing the Walton coa.t of arms, and the heraldry was growing sca.rlet under the heat of the burning logs. Louise knelt down a.t the hearthstone. Carter stood over her, and Ned Walton was on the other side. She laid her fingers on a, line of the delicate moulding of the chimney-piece nearest the nre. a'nd presently her nugers touched a hidden and the panel which formed that side of what was apparently solid mantle slipped back. And there, at the I bottom, of the uncovered nook, lay an old yellow paper. Louise ga,ve a frightened cry, but no one else uttered a word. Finally Mr. WaJton broke the silence. Take it up. Ned.' sa.id he, and let us see wha.t It is.' Ned stooped to pick the letter Ttp," con- tinned Donald. but it was brittle from age and heat, and crumbled into ashes at his touch. I met Effie Blaisdell the other day, and we fell to talking about the happening. She ha.d just been talking to Carter. Effie believes in ghosts. She says she can feel them behind her a.ny time she wishes to." And Carter doe<7n't?" "No, Ca.Ttor doesn't. He pnl!s his moustache, and is geTtera.lly decorative a'nd exasperating to—to Erne. He even goes so far as to sa.y. as one would like to be aaeured upon some minor detail, that of course that was Tre- lease's pa-per." But if it itasn't, his spirit must still walk. And has any one eeen him since?" argued Bemis. That is just Eme'a point," said his friend, smiling a. little in his turn. No, I must &dmit that no one has."

LONDON'S WATER SUPPLY. I
LONDON'S WATER SUPPLY. I An tmportant Judgment. I Mr. Justice Joyce, in the Chancery Division to-day, delivoped a.n importa.nt judgment affecting the water consumers of London. For nearly twenty years prior to the taking over of the water undertakings by the Metropolita-n Water Board the West Middle- sex Waterworks Company paid a. maximum dividend of 10 per cent., and, therefore, under the provisions of the Waterworks Clauses Act. allowed a, rebate of 5 per cent. on the water ra-te. The Metropolitan Wa.ter Board now decline to continue the rebate, and the Chiswick Urban Council brought an action to compel them to do so. His lordship, however, decided that certain provisions of the Waterworks Cla.usea Act weira unwoTkaMe, and tlh.a.t the Wa.te(r Board might increase the wa.ter rate so long as they kept within the statutory provisions of their special Act. This decision affects a, very large portion of the Metropolis.

CAERPH!LLY BLAZE I Grocer's Shop Gutted. I A HELPER BADLY INJURED At 2.30 this (Thursday) morning a. are which had serious consequences broke out in the premises of Messrs. Owens, grocers, Picca- dilly-square. Caerphilly. The fire was nrst noticed in the shop by a servant girl, who immediately took steps to arouse the inha/bi- ta.nts, and to call a.id for putting out the fla,m,es. Unfortunately, Caerphilly has no fire engine, although the district council have for some time past had the provision of one under discussion. However, the police were immedia.tely on the scene with such appliajices as they po&sessed, and under Inspector Da.vies they battled vigorous'ly with the B.a'me's. Without a fire engine, however, it seemed hopeless that the na-mes could be put out. They had now gained a complete hold of the grocery and the shops were in some danger. The square in which the fire took place soon beca.me filled with people, ma.ny of whom rend'ered the police a.ssie't.a.noe. By four a..m. the fire had beea got well under cont.rol, but not before the grocery promises, which afre fully insured, had been completely gutted. One of the many helpers had the miaifortune to susta.in somewhat serious injuries. It is some years since Caerphilly had a. nrc as serious as that which occurred this morn- ing. Breaking out, ae it did, in the dead of the night, it is fortunate that the police obs<?rved it when they did. Otherwise, Mr. Owen and his family may have suffered serious injury. The premises in which the &re occurred have only been built a few yea.r8. It is estimated that the damage is from .E1.5CO to L2,000. FURTHER DETAtLS. I It. a,ppea.rs t.ha.t a Berra-ut girri, who lived <next dooT to the grocer's shop, raised an a.larm, and 'Mrs. Owen ra-n downsta.ira with her child and got into the street through the front door. Mr. Owen ecca-ped through the ba,ck-door. They were the only occupamts of the p-remii&es. The opening of the two doors gave the Hames a frMh impetns, and by the turne of the arrival of the police wit<h a hoeo and reel the nre had assumed a<la,nning proportions. The police, a.ide<l by a ba,nd of willing helpers, worked hard to oveTcome the na<mes, a.nd, as it was impossible to save thie grocer's premi&e's. their cn'orte were ditTected towards &a.ving the adio,iniug houses, which they 9U.cceeè.ed Ln doing. Mr. and Mrs. Owen are being housed by eome friecds. The man who was injured is na-med Edmund Siminonda, a ca.rpenter. His leg was not broken, but he &u6ta,ined a. eertoos cut, and Inspector Da,vie8 thought it advisable to send him to Pontypridd in a. tra-p. The work of the police deserves the highest pra,ise. Inspector Davies ecaJed the building and prevented the nre from spreading to the adjoming nsh shop, which was in immi-nent da,ng€r. I

Relatives and guests assembled, and the pair stood side by side before the mayor. When, however, the mayor was about to pronounce the words which would have made them man and wife, Doneck yawned.

l" PETTY GODS "OF RHYMNEY 1 Chamber of Trade and Distnct I < Council At the monthly meeting of the Rhymney and Pontlottyn Chamber of Trade last night some strong language was indulged in with regard to what was described as an "a-boiQi'n- able nuisance" existing at Abertysswg in con. sequence of the sewage beds there. ( Mr. W. C. Price said the amount of sewage I that covered their neld at the time of the sports was very ob.jecti<ma.Me. Mr. Thomas said there had been ha-If a dozen CMes of disease as a. result of people, attending the sports on each a. neld. A new main road was about to be constructed, and it would be something scandalous to have a. main road by the side of a. sewage bed. A proposal was made to write Rhymney District CouncU with a. view of getting them to a'ha.te the nmaance. The Deputy-clerk: We cam ask t!heai. brtt we ca.n't dictate how this is to be done. Mr. W. C. Price: I think we have a right to dictate. They are only public servaJMs. the same ne we are. We look upon the district comMil of Khym,ney as so many petty gods, and that is a. thing we should not do at all. Mr. E. Johnstoa said the council were merely public se.rva.nts, and they should study the interests of the people. Instead of doing that they sneered at the chamber of trade, and pooh-poohed and ignored questions that were put before them. The chamber of trade phould endeavour to get men in future who would aetrve the m-tefreata of the ratepayers, and not be prejudiced, religiously or politi- cal!y, and he made a motion to that enect. Mr. W. C. Price seconded, and -Mr. Lewis supported, saying they had too many "dolls" in the council, and it was high time they had some "men." The motion was carried, and it was agreed to write a strong letter to the council on the subject.

ROMANCE & TRAGEDY
ROMANCE & TRAGEDY MOTHER-!N-LAW8 OBJECTION TO KISSING Leads to a Shocking Doubte Murder. Bebun in roma-nce, a.nd continuing in fa.rce, the story of Ama.nd Fourmy, na,val engineer, of his young wife Julia., and of his mother- dn-la-w, the highly respectable Madame VaJIee, of Le Ma.ns, ended in tragedy. Ama,nd, true to his Christian name, fell wildly in love when still a schoolboy with Julia. Va.llee, his headmaster's da,-u,-hter. Old Vallee gave up tea.ching, statTted in business at Le Ma'ns, and ma<te a fortune. Ama<nd went to sea, as na-Tal engineer, and tra,velled in etranse Ia,nds. FTom the Far East he wrote to the girl. who had not forgotten him. He came back, met Julia, again, told his adventures, and, like Desdemona. and Othello, "she loved him for the dangers he had passed, and he loved her th.a,t she did pity them." They majTied in 1901, a.nd spent two months of bliss in Italy. Now the mother-in-law comes into the story, and the st&ry becomes a. farce. JJajdame Vallee, left a. wealthy .amd masterful widow a.t the head of her late husb:a;nd'g business, which Ehe carried on with perfect com- petence, was intensely respecta-ble in her own peeulia.r wa,y. Amand, like a d'utiful son-in-la.w, wrote to her during tine honeymoon from Como, Milan, FIorenc-e, VenMe, Na.ples, ajid all the places whether honeymoon coaples usuaJly go. The burthsn of h.ia letters was, We are ma-dly in love wi-tih eeuoh other; my H.tti.e wife is a da.rLing" a<nd Julia wrote, My Ht.tle hua- ba-Tid is a. pet." Objected to Kissing I Why tell ma-mma all abou.t it? one might ask, a<nd 3fa-dame V,&I.Iee did object. Her objection, however, was not to kia&ing a,nd telling. that is to say, kissing one's wife and telling one's mother-in-law, but to kLsging altogataier. The respectable widow's ideas of propriety were not, perhaps, so stj*a<nge in France as th&y would be anywhere else. She wrote 6oMly to the brid&grcom, You appear to forgeit tha,t Julia, is your wife, not your mratress." When they came ba-ck from the honeymo&n they were to live wi,th Ma.dame VaJlee at her hOUEe, so tha.t she could look after them, Ama,nd bciicg given a. position in his mother-i'lllaw's. bu&inese. They were inatruc'ted by her to ca.11 each other, not "thou" ae be-fore, but you," and a.ll endearing epithets were tabooed. Madame Va.Hee could not tolera.te such low- bre'd fa.milia.nty in her regpecta/ble house. The girl wife, under her mother's influence, grew less aectiona<te towa.rds her huE-band, then co'lder a.ud colder. Fourmy, who I had had fever in the Far East, fretted and became irrita.Me. His mother-in-law taught i him how to drees, how to talk, how to be- have in society, and, finding a comic paper in his coat pocket, upbraided him for cor- rupting his young wife, their only child, a girl aged three, and the servant maids. All the money was Mjme. Vallee's, as be was often reminded. Hia Pockets were Searched Ntghtty; I I b I Me cna-nge 01 a sovereign given him for pocket money was carefully counted; he was not aJlowed to poeseaa a. key wherewith to lock up anything; and be wae forbidden to smohp. GaJIed day by .day, he had such a burst of fury at last that the mother-m-la.w WM fi-iglitened, a.nd agreed to a. compact. He and his wife should be permitted to say thou and darling to each other, ajid would live in a b<)Uise of their own next door to Mme. VaJIee. Af<eT that a'I'l"'ament A'ma.nd found tibaA 'hia wif. his da.u.ghter, and the servanis ha.d ,all their mea<!s a.t the mother-in-law's "on account of their hea.lth," and left him alcme. Evemtually Mme. Va.llee insisted on h&r 'da.ng-hter sha,rin? her bedroom, while a young brot.her-in-la'w slept- in AmaBd's &pa.rtment. The huaba-nd becajne more and more efmbit- t'ered, a,ad nna,Uy YioleTJt. "Poor child," he taLd hia little ?u'l one day, "I suppose you will be A Convict's Daughter Soon." I lie WMM Mr fo.ur weeks' service in the Army, a.nd duriog that time had not a. word from h.e wife, in epite of his anxious entreaties. Wh<m he came back be learned tihaA &he had com- m'SBoed proceedings for a. judicial separation. Re was refti&ed a<!mi.tta.iice at his mother-in- la-w's, amd sa.w Uc¡ither her, nor his wife, nor his ahUd. At last he obtained a, written. pro< nuse thaA h:8 little girl would be brong-ht romid to him. On the morning of the day on whjMfh she was to come he bought a, eeven- cha-mbered roToJvca* of unpro-ved pa-Mcjn. The servam-t arrived with the child, but found tbs fa-tiheir m such a state of exictetment that she went away again. Ama,nd followed to I Ma,da.me Vanee's house, found her with his wife, HM) obitfd, and the sefrva.nt, drew his !revotver, ajid. without a. word, Ared once, kiUing hia wife outright; a. secomd time at his mo<ib€T-m-Ja<w, who fell wounded; acd a third time at his little girl, whom he mis&ed, the eervamt halving had the presence of mind to throw the child down. Madame VaJIee, bleeding, rose, tried to escape, then fell exhausted, and her son-in-la-w despa.tched her with a. fourth bullet.. After this scene of butchery Amand, apparently caJm, waJked I st.T'ajight to the police-ata?on, hia re,it I still in his haaMi, and & GaveHimsetfUp I He was put <m his trial for the double murder at the L<e Msms Assizea. Fourmy, when examined by the judge, de- j nied having premeditated his crime. He said he did not hate his mother-in-law,' though "she tortured him." He bought the' revolver to ehoot hmioelf. If his child had not been taJ:en a.wa.y from him he would never have committed the murders. The judge, in accordance with French judicial custom, gave a detailed narrative of the scene of the double crime, during which the prisoner wept bitterly. Among the witnesses were medical experts, who pronounced Fourmy to be a degenerate," whose ner- vous system is shattered. His father died mad, and his uncle -and grand uncle both committed suicide. While in the Far East Four-my drank heavily. The clerks of the murdered Mme. Yallee described her house aa having become a hell upon earth after the daughter's marriage with Fourmy. The latter threatened to kill his wife. his mother- in-Law, and brother-in-law.* At this evidence the prisoner became furious, and shouted that the witnesses had been bribed to blacken him. The trial was adjourned.

1HOMAGE -TO HEROES.
1HOMAGE TO HEROES. CURIOUS SERVICE ON THE FIELD OF WATERLOO. I Ninety yeaj'a ago the battle of Waterloo waa fought and won, and ea<Ji year a memoria.1 eervioe to the heroes who died in that terrible conflict is held at the Chateau d'Hougomont. A correspondent who was pre- sent at this year's service on Monday sends the following description :— I went this morning to thia shrine of English glory—English, German, Belgian, and French glory. This yeaj the ISMi of June was a Sunday— which was a.Iso the day of the week on which the battle waa fought- and the clergyTnan. having other duties to attend to, could not come, but to-day he came, bringing with him hM curate and a harmon.ium. In the little room—all that is left of the chateau—the room in which the flames stopped a.t the foot of the crucinx, which to- day &till etand.s over the door—a.n altar had been improvised and decked with Sowers, and at noon twenty or thirty people gathered, Rome by design, othera, Itie my&elf, by oha.noe. It was A Sotemn Gathering to render homage to the mighty fallen. Few worda were necessary to touch their h&arers to the quick. No great oration was nooded-();nly woirds, simple and direct—but those words were not spoken. Nothing was said of the -men who died at 'Waterloo, no specia.1 prayers were prayed, the hymns could hardly be cabled a-ppropriate, and the address might have been given as a sermon at any church, in any plax;e, at any time, with equal egect. The proceedings were not devoid of humour —humour, aa.ve the mark, on such a day! The harmonium had been placed by the aJtaj* and opened, but no one could play it, so the hymna were led by the curate. Then the good lady of the farm, a<n;dous to contribute her mite, brought two lighted candles for the altar just after service had commenced, but was hastily waved back to tho door. "Why did you not have the ca.ndLes?" aaked a Roman Catholic gentleman present. It was quite light enough with the sun," was the reply.
Compensation Claim I
Compensation Claim I CORPORATION AND tNSURANCE I COMPANY. At a. meeting of the Cardiff Public 'Works Committee to-day, Mr. J. Ramsdale presiding. it waa reported th.a,t Thomas Mitcbell, whilst employed by the corpora.tion, met with an accident, and for compensation. The case was decided before Judge Owen at the laftt county-court, and his honour ordered the corporation to pay 15s. per week and coete, which amounted to about &ft<'en guineas. The man had been insured by the corporation with one of tb.a insurance com- panies, and this insurance the company refused to pay on the ground that intimation of the accident h&d not been given to them immediately the accident occurred, as re- quired by the policy. The Town-clerk said they defended the CaBe because the insurance would not take it up. Asked if the insurajice company waa not liable for the full ajnount, The Town-clerk replied that he thought they were. When the accident happened inquiries were made, and they were told that it did not come under the purview of the policy. Some months a.fter, when pro- ceedings were taken, they found the informa.tion supplied was wrong. Mr. F. J. Vea.U said they ought to go thoroughly into the wording of the policies. Mr. W. L. Yorath: They a/re endeavouring to take advantage of techmicalities. The Town-clerk suggested that he should be allowed to conduct further correspondence with the insurance company before the com- mittee took action. This was a-greed to. Alderma,n David Jones said whatever the present conditions were of the va-rioua in- surance companies they ought to get hold of a. company who would indemnify them in case of accident of every kind, or they would have this sort of thing happening continc- ally. Alderman Mildon suggested that the de- pa.rtmenta.l committee should dea.1 with the question of insurance. Mr. Yorath (chairman of the committee) said he intended doing so. and had requested Mr. Cornish (the chief clerk) to make a. note of it.

In his opinion the globe formed part of the build- ing, ajid the tower would be inco-mpleta with- out it. The whole er.actMHi waa c.a.rried out under the supervision of Mr. Heywa.rd, the district survetyor, amd no question was ever radsed with regard to the oonatruction of the tower 00" the globe upon it.

THE FAMOUS D'ARTIGAN I Gives a Few Facts about this Great Feat. One of the meet sensational and daring acts of the present day is that of "Looping the Loop." The tremendous speed which is attained by the rider when inverted at a height of .about 30 feet in the air, makes the feat most dangerous and accidents frequent. The following letter received from Mr. E. D'Artigan, who is at present touring :;n South Wales. proves the unequalled power o<f Zam-buk aa a healer for aU injuries. Writing from 37, Chipley- gtreet, New Cross, London, S.E., he says —" I do not think it would be poasi'ble to imagine a better healing balm than Za.m-buk. In my business of looping the loop I meet with some nasty accidents. I have had to use 74m,.buk, and have found a. friend in it on more than one occasion. Only last Friday night, when performing a.t Hulme, I was coming off the loop a-t a- rate of not less tha.n 60 miles a. hour, when my foot slipped off the pedal of my machine. I was thrown violently over, the machine Hying over me. My manager ran and picked me up, and found that I had sue- tained a severe laceration on the ajilde, exteTiding rdght up along fhe book of the calf. He a-saisted me to the dressing- room, and then went off to the chemist's for a box of Ztun-buk, which I happened to be out of at fhe time. The applica- cation of the balm was delightfully soothing, and it was astonishing to see how quickly t'he injury healed up. I was sufficiently recovered to loop the loop fhe foHowiBg night? and now tthe plaoe has qurte healed up without a sign of the in-jury left. I nr?t u.?ed Zam- ty after a nasty spill in the Coliseum aJt Leeds, and have kept it by me con- stantly ever since. Zam-buk is an excellent (hea-ling balm, and one can .lwa.Jf!d ?ow, 4t.
