ACTRESSES HUSBANDS. Whe Marriages of the Modern American Stage. A LIST OF THE VARIOUS GENTLEMEN WHO ARE MATRIMONIALLY RELATED TO THE PROFES- sION. The New York World prints a communication from a young man employed as first assistant bookkeeper in a stock broker's office in that city who is very much attached to a young lady member of the Casino company, and wants ad- vice as to whether he shall propose marriage to her or not. The World says in reply: ‘ Perhaps the best thing for him to do is to carefully study | this veracious account of actresses’ husbands which is herewith set forth for popular infor- | mation and interest. It is a pitifal end in life, } after all, to be labelled as ‘ Miss So-and-So’s hus- band’—the highest title to which most gentle- men of that yariety may aspire.” MAGGIE MITCHELL.

MAUD GRANGER. Even the charming Miss Maud Granger has a husband—or by this time, perhaps, had—for a ‘suit for divorce is pending between them. Up to the time he married her Mr. Alfred Follen, a | Rephew of Mrs. Frank Leslie, was one ot the best known and most cordiaily liked younger ™men of the local press. After his marriage, in Geference to his wife's views, he took to acting, and has all but utterly vanished from human ker. He ts remembered as a handsome, stim, straight-featured boy, who came fresh from the ‘storal simplicity of Cincinnati to be engulfed vast and vile New York. MARIE PRESCOTT.

Effects of the Abuse of Cnloral. From the New York Tribune. Everybody is familiar with the abuse of opium in its various forms, from the fashionable victim who is a slave to the hypodermic needle, to the degraded outcast seeking forgetfulness in the Chinese opium “joint.” Of hasheesh, or Indian | hemp, little is heard, the victims of thisdrug be- ing comparatively few in this country, though its use is common enough in India and the east generally. But there is another drug for sqme time after its discovery, some fifteen years ago, considered eomparati and which is just beginning ention its baleful effects merit. of chloral.

From Biackwood’s Magazine. The last thing ina trial Is the verdict of the jury, which must be a unanimons one. Origin- ally the Jurors were witnesses, and the rule was in the earliest times that 12 witnesses must swear to the prisoner's guilt before he could be convicted, Just as at the present time 12 grand jurors rust swear to their belief in his guilt be- fore he catfbe put on his trial. Later on they ceased to be witnesses and became judges. The rule that the pa must be unanimous before the prisoner can beconvictedisa direct consequence ofthe principle that no one is to be convicted unless his guilt is proved beyond all reasonable doubt, and so long 8 the institution is pre- served the principal of unanimity should be re- tained. It is one of the curiosities of legal his- tory, the uncertainty which prevailed down to within the last quarter of a century or less, what the presiding judge should do in case the jury could notagree. One theory was, as Sir James Stephens says, that the Judzé o1 to confine them without food or fire, till did agree. We remember, in 1850, Lord Camp- bell angrily telling a jury, when discharging them without a verdict, that the old law was that the judge could have them all put into a covered cart, carried to the confines of the county. and there shot into a ditch. Lord ndhurst made fun of this in the house of lords, and declared that Lord Campbell had been mistaken in his law, and that all the Judge could do originally was to carry the jury with him on his circuit till they did agree or until he reached the borders of the county. Whatever the old rule may have been, it was solemnly de- termined in 1866 tnat in case of necessity the Judge might discharge the jury and the prisoner be committed and tried a second time. Such a rule obviates the objections which had been entertained to the principle of unanimity, and possibly has given the institution of trial ee a fresh lease of life. It was always regarded as an abuse of power to subject jurorsto any penal ; consequences In respect of their verdict, and since the revolution no attempt of the kind has been made. —————_+e-—___ How the Japanese Deal With Specu- lators. From the New York Daily Bulletin. - The Japanese have a short and easy way of dealing with stock exchange speculators. It was recently resolved to arrest at the same mo- ment all offenders on the stock exchanges at Osaka, Yokohama and Kobe, as well as on the rice exchanges of Tokio, Otsu and other import- ant commercial centers. The police inspectors received their orders only on the morning of the day fixed, and strong detachments of constables, all wearing various disguises, then proceeded to the —— of the exchanges and mingled with the crowd so as to avoid observation. A few minutes after 11 all was in readiness. Six detec- tives, stationed inside, sounded their whistles, and before the amazed speculators realized what was the matter, the exchanges were in the oc- cupation of the police, the doors locked, and the prisoners secured. All the books, records and papers were then taken a of, and the Whole “haul” was removed in boats to the cen- tral police station. It is stated that the offense = which these men _ a is “margins,” Over inquents were pa in prison. A month of this kindof thing in New York or Chicago—and—well, what would be- come of us? —————_+e-—____. Miss JENNY The period of | A novel and interesting enterprise was this week brought to light through the medium of a New York civil engineer, who is at Chicago in connection with the establishment of a pneumatic pipe line between New York and Chicago. The plans, as partly developed, are to lay a four-inch pipe for the purpose of trans- mitting letters, messages, grain samples, jew- elry and other light packages at a maximum tarift of 10 cents for packages and 5 cents for | letters, ete. Way stations will be established at Cleveland, Buffalo and possibly one other oint. The pipe will be the ordinary tubular ind in common use, and the entire line will be made perfectly air-tight, with brass stations at the points named. The boxes for the convey- | ance of messages will be made from sole leather, with wool air registers, as_used in short pneu- matic tubes. Engines of 25-horse power, to drive the air pumps, will be placed at the ter- mini, and smaller ones at the way stations. | Seventeen patents for various devices have been secured by the orizinators of the scheme. and no doubt some of them will be made availabie in working the line. The plan of operating, as ar as revealed at present, will be about as fol- lows: Commencing at 6 o'clock a. m., Washing- ton time, the boxes containing through pack- ages will be FED INTO THE TUBE at Chicago and blown toward New York, while the Chicago pump is filling the tube and the New York pump is exhausting the air. The last box, started at Chicazo at , will have a patent signal attachment, which, at Cleveland, auto- matically announces its arrival. The local boxes are those inserted there. and later on at Buffalo. The last box will arrive at New York at 10 o'clock, the trip being made in about four hours. Then the line is cleared for west-bound traffic for the following four hours, and so on, alter- nately, day and night. It is expected that during eaeh period of four hours 1,000 boxes can be transmitted, each earning about g2 in freights, or | $12 during the 24 hours, being an aggregate of $12,000 per day for the line, The cost of ope- rating it is estimated at only $1,125 daily, which includes 300 pipe-section men (repairers), 50 station operators and 100 delivery and collection messengers, hence the net earnings can reach the enormous aggregate of 23,000,000 annually— at least it is thus figured out on paper. But even allowing a very wide margin for errors and omissions, the profit of operating the pneumatic pipe line promises to be very large. The cost of laying the line will be something less than 24,000 per mile, and the entire plant will not exceed $4,250,000. The projectors confidently antici- pate an immediate PROFIT OF 20 PER CENT on the investment. The next serious obstacle to the present consummation of the singular scheme is the right of way, but it is said the parties interested have been secretly obtaining this at little cost. The pipe will be placed under ground in the cities, but the bulk of the lines will extend along tracks of certain railroads, the pipe in most instances being attached to and swung from the ends of the ties. For certain short distances for connecting links, the pipe vill pass through flelds and long country roads, where it will be placed on short “jacks” or pedestals, or swung along the base of fences. n crossing country roads it will be swung on short poles. Three telegraph wires will be attached to and extended along the pipe, to be used for electric signaling between stations. Atleast one engineer believes the scheme a feasible one, and if it proves a success | it is thought another pipe line will be added for | the transfer exclusively of grain from Chicago to New York, by which method 50,000 bushels ; could be carried daily for ten cents per bushel, ‘ata profit of $2,500. Grain placed in a tube here would arrive in New York in about five hours, the transfer time being somewhat longer than by the message lie. Appliances are now being experimented with by which, with the aid of automatic attachments, the grain pipe line would be continually charged from the bins of the principal elevators here. and delivered at a general central elevator at New York. The grain, it ls claimed, would be improved in tran- sit, as it would pass throuzh a patent dust fan upon its discharge Into the New York elevator. The capacity of the line b only about 18.000.000 bushels annually, it would not se- rlously interfere with railway traffic. rectors of the enterpr The | state that the money necessary to carry out the plans expe- ditiously is pledged, and at a conference to be | held on the 26th instant the full details will probably he made pnhiie A GLOOMY RIDE TO BALMORAL. Mow the Queen’s Special Train to Scots land Was Like a Funeral. From the London World. As a rule, when the queen goes to Balmoral, the time table of the royal train is published in the Scotch newspapers, but the other day strict orders were sent from Windsor that no particu- lars should be made public, and that on no pre- tense whatever should any one be admitted to the stations, By some mistake the hour of ar- rival at Ferryhill was published in the Aberdeen daily } tper, and, as it was not known that the journey was to be private, an unusual concourse drove out from the city to the junction. the de- sire to attend being increased by the fact that on a recent occasion, when the public were ex- cluded by mistake, the queen expressed surprise that ne _ of her “ood nelghbors” had turaed out to pay tleir respects. The gates at the station were closed, however, and nothing could be seen, while at Ballater even the railway directors were not permitted to come upon the platform until the queen had driven off, anda telegram from Perth had for- bidden the attendance of the royal guard. whose service have not been dispensed with since May, 1862, ‘she crowd of country people were kept at a distance by a strong body of county police, j and when they found that they were not to be allowed to enter the square at the station they retired beyond the bridge to give the queen a cheer as she passed, but to their disappointment and indignation her majesty droye off with Princess Beatrice and Countess Feodore Glei- chen by the road on the south side of the Dee, a route which she has never taken before. The queen was carried to her carriage from the sa- loon in a chair. For the first time the train was accompanied throughout the journey by Mr, Findlay, general manager of the London and Northwestern line. The weather has been very dine at Balmoral since the queen arrived, but her majesty has not made any ot-her usual excur- sions. ——_—___-e-________ Do the Russians Inflict Torture? Prince L .potkine, in the Nineteenth Century. I doubted it myself, nay, I sald it was impos- sible, until I was convinced by tacts. It is quite natural, therefore, that he wishes more details about torture before believing in it. But I knov also that the Russian government would — only too glad if, provoked by polem- Jes, I shvald say something more about the sub- ject. lsay that when bringing forward this terrible charge against the Russian government, Iwas fully aware of the responsibility I took upon myself, and therefore brought forward only what I was certain of. If I were reporting mere rumors and town talk. I surely would have added the name of Goldenberg to those of Ryssakoff and Mikhatloff. The Russian govern- ment was loudly accused at St. Petersburg of having put Goldenberg to torture in order to A Few- Modern Devices Which Modern Belles are Net Above Using. — 5 ‘From the London World. ‘ It is a question whether beauty, like good- ness, must not necessarily be genuine in order tobe admirable. The climax of this theory is reached when the old lady of eighty-five, the aged patroness of many charlatans, is held up toadmiration because—at ¢ little distance— she would pass for thirty. Proudly her “makers-up” point out how this effect is pro- duced;’ her hair is false, her skin Is enameled— besides being “tightened” toprevent wrinkles— her eyelashes are stained. her figure is ‘‘made.” She is false all over. Now, is this admirable? Would not a little honest old and ugliness be more agreeable? Be this aS it may. it is not very important. When a lady has reached the mature age of eighty-five her appearance troubles no one very much, except her grand- children. But when it comes to the lady whom you love, or might love if you were quite cer- tain that she was genuine, the case is different. It is bad to know that your dear Angela must sleep in corsets, or she neyer, never could at- tain to the fashionable watst; it Is sad to think of the inevitable results on her poor little teet of those Louts Quinze heels, which make her pretty boots look so bewitching. Figure to yourselt whatit must feel lke to take your beauty-steep with a pair of pincers on your nose. That pretty eld-fashioned expres- sion has now taken a newand dreadful mean- ing. Any one who desires to possess the “Mrs. Langtry nose” has but to sleep in torment for a Week or two and the great result is obtained. If the figure of the would-be beauty is not as lovely as she wishes, “the anatomical corset- maker” will supply her with a nocturnal ing apparatus which will ‘ine her down” by de- grees. If her stature is toe low for beauty, she may remedy this by wearing what is mildly called an “appliance;” in the day of the Inquisition it would probably have been classed as an instru- ment of torture. This appliance squeezes and stretches all the lower pait of the body, and its use is said not to interfere with the comfort of one’s beauty-sleep. Once enameled, always enameled. The pro- fessed beauty can only afford to be yellow, “gray and uncurled” in seret. She finds her- selt precipitated on the downward path. It {s just as well, having once begun to attend to the matter, to pertect her beaaty. Why not make use of the marvels of modem inventiveness—re- model her ears, her nose ani her finger-tips? It 1s difficult to say why she should not carry her theory out to tlie full. —___—__+9-__+___ Stories About the Czar Nicholas. From the London Times. In 1848, when insurrections were raging all over Europe, a rlot broke out in St. Peters- burg, owing to the unpopularity of a police officer. Nicholas jumped iato a one-horse sleigh, was driven to the scene ofthe disturbance, and, marching alone into the mob, ordered that three ringleaders should surrender. His terrible presence at once cowed tle rioters, Three men stepped out, went by hii orders to the police office and were there florged. The czar never showed mercy to mutiners, and no doubt the men knew quite well whit punishment awaited them when they gave jhemselves up. A few years before this, ig 184, when Nicholas paid a visit to Engiand, his gria looks made our court uncomfortable. Lady lyttelton, after saying in one of her letters hor grand and handsome he was, adds: “he only fault in his face is that he las pale eyelashes, so that his enormous and vey brilliant eyes have no shade; besides which the have that awtul look imparted by occasioned flimpses of white above the ‘ayeball which give: him an expression of savage wildness. Hisface has an awkward character of deep graviy, almost sadness, and a strange want of smiles The ezar’s military habits also caused astaishment at Windsor. After wearing civilian ilothes for a couple of days, he begged the quen to permit that he should’ resume his unisrm, for he found the other clothes unendurale. He slept on a leather sack stuffed withstraw. The first thing his valets did on beingshown his bedroom at Windsor Castle was to geto thestables for clean trusses, a proceeding” thich, as Baron Stock- mar remarked, “was pynounced by our Eng- lishmen to be affectationbut affectation or not, the emperor adhered tothe practice through life” The czar’s soldiely tastes exp}: quality of his As obdience is 1 T, Nichols was resolved that it should be regarded as sua by his subjects; and he also had in him a stre ‘otion of the patria potestas, calling hitself ‘atier of his people, and maintaining that his‘children” ought not to feel degraded by ary eder he gaye or any punishment which he inflited. One night at a court bll young Prince Kor- tasow made a foolish rmark, which the ezar overheard. “You'll wal up and down the ball room all night when theguests have gone and ery out ina loud voice, 1 ama puppy,’” said his majesty, and the frihtened young gentle- man did as he was biddet Horace Vernet, the French painter, who was t St. Petersburg when this happened, said thaf the affair “sickened him” so that he declind an invitation which had been given him to livin one of the impe- rial palaces fora year wile he did some work for the emperor. The Frnchman and the Rus- sian autocrat were not liely to agree upon hu- man dignity—a sentimen which the czar never took into his calculations Nicholas disliked boas and hated to hear arguments in favor of hi system.
