Judge Krekel’s health is reported to be such that it _is doubttul it he will hold on, now that court will be held in four places in that district. Canvassing tor his successor has already commenced. Senator Vest is said to be in favor of Judge Philips, ot Kansas City, his old Jaw partner, while Senator Cockrell is thought to be inclined to H. Clay Ewing. This is the situ ation as the representatives have it and they are calculating on being able to get a voice in the selection it the senators remain apart. Kansas City Star. In an Interview with Judge Kreke} ot the United States Court this morning the Judge positively denied the rumor relative to his resigning the office on account of the passage of the judicial bill, which adds two new places of holding court to the circuit, making four courts in all. It was thought by some that qwing to the Judge's health and age he would not remain in office. A Star re- porter saw the Judge, who soon dispelled the truth of the rumor in the’ following words: ‘‘There is nothing in it whatever. I haven’t thought of it, but on the contrary haye been preparing tor effective campaign in the new courts. I am now doing patriotic service for my country. I could have resigned two years ago and received full pay during the remainder of my life.” He added: ‘Tell the people that the jyige has no idea of becoming a “dead head’ except when he 1s car- tied to his grave.”’ Details of a shocking occurrence } are sent out trom New Haven seci- ety, the gist of which 1s that a *so- ciety "young lady’? ot that city has married a mechanic! Such entirely depraved conduct has not been heard ot for a very long time, and the blue bloods of New Haven “sassiety’’ are torn up over the affair, Truly things have come to a pretty pass when a mechanic, with brains in his head and a pair of willing hands, enters that charmed circle that is re- served, tor five-dollar-a-week clerks, whose highest claims as dudes and dancers cannot be disputed, and who beat their washerwomen in order to spend their money in the compan- ionship of equally brainless young i} women. New Haven society seems to be a collection of long-eared bur- tos.—St. Joe Gazette. Mortimer McRoberts and Maude C. Mansfield were married in Cin- cinnati the other day, and, after the ceremony, McRoberts went to the hotel ofhce to pay his bill, carrying a small hand bag. Atter getting a receipt he hurried to his bride, leav- ing the bag on the floor under the Cashier’s window. In about fitteen minutes he returned, pale asa ghost, and gasped: “Did I leave my satchel here?’ Without a word the clerk handed it to him, and with a sigh of rehef he grabbed and opened it. Then the eyes of the clerk stuck out with astonishment, for the bag was full of money. It contained a round $50;000. Austria Preparing.

Now the only carni- | vat of note in the United States is the New Orleans Mard: Gras; and while local journals comment upon this fact as proot that this is the only carnival city in this country, the signs seem to go further and point to the early decay of the festival here also. Under “Italia’s sunny skies,’’ where the ambitionless masses, indolent and sensual, live in squalid poverty, some sort ot prolonged revel is need- ed to keep down possible outbursts ot insane envy ot the few who live in luxury.. Here where political preferment, social position, fame, wealth, are open to the winner and no limit to the entries, no such in- stitution 1s required. Hence it is that there is a growing opposition to the practice of giving up a week of time to parades costing large sums of dearly-spared money and between times performing antics clownish and childlike. The Momus parade was last week and I did not see it; but saw Rex in his procession, gorgeous and funny, with burlesque as the end, on Tues- day, and on Tuesday night the Krewe of Proteus in tableaux repre- senting Fairy tales from Hans Chris- tian Andersen. This parade was peculiarly beautitul—it was fascina- ting. The floats were ponderous in height and size, yet withal artistic; they were brilliantly and weirdly entrancing. Compared with them the St. Louis Veiled Prophets’ et forts are inferior. To have seen Mardi: Gras as it was this year is to have been well repaid to* coming a thousand miles and more. Wednesday might occurred the bicycle parade. The wheels were attractively decorated with mbbons interlaced through the spokes, and above the riders’ frames ot varied designs held suspended Chinese lan- terns in some cases to the number of forty or more. The effect was pleas. ing and curious. New Orleans just now1s a delight- ful place ot sojourn. As I write a vase of tresh roses are filling the room with pertume, while the house lawns, parks are bright with orange blossoms, mag- nolias, roses and thé multitude of smaller flowers. I came roundabout way by St, Louis, Marshall, Texas, and Shreve- port, La., in order to see a part of the country T had not been in before, Diagonally across the State of Ar- kansas trom northeast to southwest we pass continually through forest and swamp—not a prairie ever so small in the whole distance and only three towns worth the mention, Newport on the White river, Little Rock. and Texarkana. I stopped for a day in Shrey eport, the old Red river town once the base ot supply for the great southwest. It 1s to- day a growing city of perhaps 15,- 000 inhabitants (two blacks tor each white) and has a number ot impor- tant industries and quite a river trade. The Hamilton Oi! and Fertihzer works, to whose “gentlemanly pro- prietors I am indebtea tor being made familiar with the Process of extracting oil from cotton seed, has & capacity of 400 barrels of oil per week and is the largest manutactur- ing business mm the Red river valley. Throughout Arkansas the timber supply—white oak and pine—is val- uable. Much ot the land 1s rich but is low and swampy. Louisana, as I traversed it, has more land in culti- vation.

It was a bitter cold day, and as they advanced the wind began to blow. Before half ot their jour- ney had been accomplished they were wrapped in a blinding snow storm, and their progress became slow and difficult. Soon Mr. Hass sank down in the snow, thoroughly exhausted and unable to proceed. His now frantic wite tried in vain to urge him on. But she was com- pelled to leave him and seek ard at the nearest house. When she ar rived at the house she sought found a woman alone. It was now about 10 o’clock at might, but taking blank- ets, the two women started back to succor Mr Hass. He was uncon- scious when they reached him, and with difficulty they succeeded in get- ting him a tew rods further toward shelter. But Hass was a large, fleshy man, and the women were compelled to abandon their efforts in his behalf. Wrapping her ex- hausted husband in blankets and giving him some norishment, his noble helpmate sat down beside him, while her ‘kind assistant started for home. Mrs. Hass remained with her husband until he died, about 8 o’clock in the morning. When help arrived at the scene the unfortunate couple were taken home, one nearly as lifeless as the other. Mr. Hass was nearly 70 years of age and she was a tew years his junior. An old and inmate friend of mine is Parker's Hair Balsam .

Settling With His Conscience. San Francisco Chronicle. There was a man who had great business ability. He was a Jew. He had not a cent. The last two statements do not at first sight ap- hitch, but truth 1s stranger another pear to than fiction. ‘here was man who had the cent. He wasalso aJew. The centless man with the ability was the kind of thing the abilityless man with the cent was looking tor. They made a partner- ship. One thousand dollars capital represented the cented partner, and the ability the other fellow; and the combination worked. They made money, and made more and more still, until the man who had had the capital died. You see the firm was lucky. It the fellow with the busi- ness ability had died the other fel- low might have ‘‘busted.’? The partner who died left all the proper- ty to his living partner with this pro- viso that he should put the original capital of $1,000 in the coffin. He wanted capital on the other side, you see, and I suppose he thought that fellows with business ability and no money were just as much in the majority there as they are here. Well, the surviving partner went to the rabbi and told him all avout it. He was honest and conscientious. “You go and put it in the coffin —the $1,000; you can afford it, and it will make your mind easy,” said the rabbi. The next time the rabbi met the business man he found him yery happy. “Did you settle that thing?’’ ““O, yes; that’s all fixed.”’ ‘“‘And you put the $1,000 in the coffin ?”’ “*Yes—that is, 1 put a check there payable to his order.”” If the Sufferers from Consumpt- ion, Scrofula, and general Debility, pan try Scott’s Emulsion of Purec Cod Liver Oil with Hypophosphites, they will find 1mmediate reliet and a permanent beneht.

Voltaire, like Frederick the Great and Na- poleon I., was very fond ot coffee. His favorite tood was oat cakes, but he preferred oranges to any other kind of fruit. The Dutch lady scholar, A. M. Schurmann, ate spiders as a dell cacy. Lessing preterred lentils,and Klopstock, who was a real gour- mond, fed on salmon, mushrooms, pastry and smoked meat. Of vege- tables he liked peas best and grapes as dessert, together with a bottle of good claret or hock. Kant retamed tll his old age a preterence for pork, all kinds ot pulse and stewed truit.
