The nsme of the young indy is now Mrs. Dietrich, nee Hilda Neering. But the story has not reached a finale.

His second was given to the flowing bow] so excessively, and to casti- gating her husband so fearfully. that the latter obtained a divorce.

On the morning of the murder a party of Providence officers. with the husband (Al- i @ house for the purpose of adulterous pair, and incidents of the ragedy are thus described: ‘They arrived about six o'clock, and were delayed downstsirs for alittle time. They found the attic door fastened, and asno one complied with the demand to open it, Mr. Dean forced itopen. Finding the bed tumbled and warm, he said “they cannot be far off. He then opened the cupboard, formed by par Utioning off the portion of the room that ex. tended under the caves, and crept in until he tound the woman and brought her out. When Benjamin W. Aldrich looked in to see if there was any one else there, the shot was fired. Aldrich jumped back with his hand to his face | and said “they have bit me.” Mr. Dean looked at him and said he thought it was only @ glancing shot. He then noticed only a wound near the corner of the eye. It afver- ‘ward appeared that the shot entered the left car and came out at the corner of the left eye. Aldrich stepped across the room. Othcrshots ‘were fired at the monentary interval after th first. One of the balls struck him a little to the right of the centre of the forehead and entered the brain. The shots came very Quickly, and he mus: have been hit more :han have been sbout ten feet. Officer Dean was standing between them. Aldrich fell npon the carpet with his hand upon his head. The officer then sheuted for more help from the ontside, and the door having been locked, a man from the outside burst It open and went up. This man states that he found Aldrich lying upon the ftoor and plaeed Aim on the bed, and that Aldrich bad no weapon about him. Since Camm’s arrest, he claims that the act was done in self-defence, but the coroner's jury decided that Aldrich was murdered by Rim.

FRUITS—How they should be Eaten.—The fol- lowing advice ts from a Jeading medical r- nal, and they may be read with profit. It says that fruits can afford an endless sapply of de- | icious and wholesome food, but as thev are usually taken may more properly be consid. ered 8s dangerous luxuries than as healthy food. The great error in their use consists im making them & desert. in overloading their stomach with them, and eating them at alk times between meals. When taken along with our food, a8 food, and in moderation, highly conducive to the health. mes pe his the most delicious and digestible of tone fruits. Plums are less digestible; all pulpy stone fruits are more of less so, and prone to ferment in thestomach. The apple is one of the best of fruits. Strawberries area whole- some fruit, but they should not be eaten with ice cream. There is nothing more wholesome than watermelons.
