SOCIETY. “Kitty” in the New York Times. It would be of infinite help to a young man who really desires to secure a pleasing manner and address in his bearing toward women to look upon himself with their eyes for a while. He would find first that he cannot be too unfailing in respect toward a young woman. Avoid anything and everything in speech and action that app-oaches a flippant familiarity. The true woman resents this, as the French say, to the tip of her nails. Some young men would be surprised, angry indeed, to be told of the fact. I sat in a crowded ball-room not long ago and kept my eyes and ears open. I saw a young man pick a fan out of one young lady’s lap, lean over in front of her and tap a second young lady—by no means lightly—on the shoulder with it to attract her attention. I saw another approach a group of young ladies, and, stand- ing behind one of them, deliberately push into od pes Leads! ee Net slightly loos- ene am a3 young man baked, % do not think he will soon forget the look of freezing dignity with which the young turned. “Thanks,” she said, without a , “I shall not need my ere derelict in this particular, an: was promptly re! maid's services n: A Very Diminutive Baby.

When the baby in question was born its mouth was so small that it was almost unable to partake of nourishment, and a small tube, ndt any larger than a sttaw, was used to furnish it. Even this was only with difficulty inserted between its lips. The child was in every bad fully developed, Its limbs were no larger the little finger of a lady’s hand, while the nails of the fingers were bard perceptible. The Culture of To-Day. From the Woman’s World. The culture which has grown with this pres- ent century has conferred its quota of happi- ness on the generation of to-day, Those who remember the old times know how their artie- tic environments have invested life with un- wonted grace, creating a purer atmosphere, s0 that existence ‘seems sweetly set to a higher ke A developed love of beauty and a better knowledge of the fitness of things has made itself felt in dress as much as in the accompa- niments of home life. The cut of our gar- ments and the improved materials testify to the touch of the magician’s wand, which has turned the prim stiffness and unloveliness of years ago to beauty. " Higher education and mental cultivation have borne fruits easily discernible, as the quaint old poet George Herbert pute’ it, +m body, clothes and habitation.” It is possible to at- tach too much importance to appearances; but Massinger was right in saying that outward seeming is a tolerably sure index to the mind. The outward habit and superficial order of gar- mentein men and women give us a taste of the spirit and demonstrate the internal quality of esoul. “Disorder and slovenly attire point to degenerate blood and breeding.” ——_— +e Dinners and Athletics. ‘From the New York Sun, Muldoon, the wrestler and athlete, advanced the theory the other night that the reason New Yorkers of the type of Wright Sanford die young comes from the fact that their dinners eats five or six times as much will bear, and then either sits down in chair smokes founges around in a box at the thanter is time to take a mouthful of supper and bed.” oe Frenchmen Who Do Not Smoke. oltaire.

Hunt, who stole Mra, Potter's diamonds, was kept of the third precinct station last night. He slept little, walking the floor most of the night listening to the groans of the other inmates of the cells. This morning he showed the effects of his confinement, The police have not yet learned who the prisoner is, He admits thatehe is traveling under an assumed name, and claims to be a Virginian, from one of the first families. He says he was once well-to-do, his father having left him con- siderable property, but he fell in with criminals and squandered his money. He claims that he was merely the tool of expert thieves, who got the largest part of the plunder. THE PRISONER SAID TO HAVE SQUEALED. It is understood that he has “squealed” and that on the information furnished by him some important arrests will be made and many valu- able diamonds stolen during the past year will be recovered. Among the prisoner's effects was some jewelry supposed to have been stolen from opera singers in Baltimore last week. IN THE POLICE COURT TO-DAY. The publication of the fact that Mrs. Potter would appear in the Police Court this morning attracted a large audience. Every seat was oc- cupied at 9 o’clock and when the case was called at 10:45 standing room could not be had. “Call for Joe Brown, alias J. B. Buck, alias He a Hunt,” said the prosecuting attorney, Mr. n. Mrs. Potter, who had been sitting in the {edge’s room, was escorted into the court-room y her manager, Mr. Chas, N. Schroeder, and Mr. Bennett, of the Arlington hotel. The wit- nesses were sworn and Mrs, Potter was handed an old Bible that has been kissed by many thousand persons, of all races and conditions. A PLEA OF NOT GUILTY. Mr. Carrington consulted the prisoner for a moment and then said: “I will enter a plea of not guilty.” Officer Hart, who had the stolen diamonds in a cigar-box, held on to them as if afraid that one of the prisoner's “pals” might come along and relieve him. ‘MRS. POTTER COMES UP SMILING, Mrs. Potter was then called to the stand. She was smiling as pleasantly as if she were making her entrance on the before an applauding audience. She testified that on esday evening when she went to the theater she left the stolen property in her room at the Arlington hotel. Two pins she left in the cushion and the balance in a box in her trunk. When she returned that night she found that her room had been entered and robbed. She identified the jewelry shown her as her prop- erty. When cross-examined by Mr. Carrington Mrs, Potter said that some of the property consisted of presents made to her before and after her marriage. Some of them were wed- ding'presents, and one bracelet, bearing the monogram “A. N.,” she said,was her mother’s. “I won’t ask you the value of the articles,” said Mr. Shillington. “I suppose you charge the amount at more than $35,” said the judge. have already shown more than that much said Mr. Shillington, MANAGER BENNETT'S TESTIMONY. Frank V. Bennett, the hotel manager, testi- fied that some time Tuesday afternoon the de- fendant registered at the hotel as J. B. Buck. That evening he found the prisoner in charge of the night watchman, When he went down stairs with him the prisoner admitted that he had been in Mrs. Potter’s room, and said he had the jewelry in his pockets. He offered to give it to witness, but witness told him to wait until the police arrived. The prisoner claimed that some of the jewelry was his own, and se] arated it from that of Mrs. Potter. Witness told what keys were taken from him. Among the Keys and other articles found were. two ‘Ales, Witness thought the prisoner used one of the files in breaking the lock from the trunk. “That's my nail file,” interrupted Mrs. Pot- ter ie Officer Hart testified to the arrest of the de- fendant, as described in yesterday's Stan. Wit- ness said the property which the prisoner claimed was his own was kept at the station under the prisoner's name. ‘THE PRISONER'S PROPERTY. Mr. Carrington remarked that this property and money which belonged to the prisoner should be turned over to him. “He has a right to it, He has a right to « speedy trial, and in order to defray the expenses of the trial, if he has any property, it should be turned over to a Mr. Shilli said that under the circum- stances atten the arrest he thought the property should be held until the ipeubeer’s career could be investigated. The court inquired what propery there was, and Officer Hart described the po , amount- ing in value to several hundred dollars. There were also pawn-tickets for some of Mrs. Davis’ jewelry, which was pawned in Philadelphia. A CAT’S-PAW FOR OLDER CRIMINALS. Mr. Carrington said there were two sides to every question. The prisoner had been pic- tured as a hardened criminal who has led a dissolute life. He expected to show that his client had been made a cat's-paw of by older and more hardenedcriminals. The . er, he said, had told a straight story about the stolen property, and had also told a straight story about the goods belonging to himself. Mr. Carrington renewed his motion for the return of the property the prisoner claims. He did not desire to put Mrs. Potter to any trouble, as was in his power to do, but in treating the rosecution fairly he certainly expected simi- treatment. If Mrs. Potter was compelled to return here to the trial and miss several performances she would probably lose the amount of the stolen property. She certainly would lose that amount if every body paid as much to go to see her as he did. PART OF THE PRISONER'S PROPERTY RETURNED TO HIM, ‘The judge said he did not think that prop- erty unclaimed by other persons should be held from him; that a stranger in « strange city was certainly entitled to what belonged to him to assist him in his trial. The court ordered that his money and his watch and chain be returned to him, but that the other property. which Ofti- cer Hart said had been partly identified as the | panier of a Baltimore robbery and the rob- ry of Mrs. Jessie Bartlett Davis at the Arling- ton hotel a month ago, should be retained by the police. Mr. Shillington said he had no ob- jection to such an order. The court then held the prisoner in $1,000 bail to await the action of the grand jury. WITNESSES BEFORE THE GRAND JURY. Mrs. Potter, Mr. Bennett and other witnesses in the case were before the grand jury this morning and gave their testimony. THE PRISONER PROMPTLY INDICTED. This afternoon the grand jury returned an indictment against James Brown, alias J. B. Buck, alias J. B. Hunt, based on the testimony of Mrs. Potter and Mr. Bennett, cl ing him with the larceny of jewelry valued at $1,044. ee How a Mare was Tortured.

When the latter gentle- man, in 1846, sold to Mr. Lovett, of New York, he reserved in his deed the acre of ground about the tomb “‘for a burial ground forever,” as Mrs. Barlow had desired. The title is now vested in the heirs of Col. Bomford, and all the right they have in it is the right of burial. The tomb was tightly boarded up by Mr. W.

A Former Washington Music Teacher Shoots Herself in a New York Hotel. A woman about forty years of age, calling herself E, De Villers, shot herself in her room at the Grand Union hotel, New York, yesterday noon, She registered as from Frederick, Md. She arrived at the Grand Union on Tuesday, and the next day she went to a farnished-room | house and wanted to hire a room, saying she would refurnish it herself, as she had furniture at the Pennsylvania depot. The woman ot the house said she would give Miss De Villers an answer at the hotel. The woman called Wed- nesday night, and received word that Miss De Fillers was engaged. | She also called upon the Belgian consul, some Mississippi bonds. About noon yesterday a pistol shot was heard in her room. “The door | ‘as forced, and the woman was found in bed Gita e'revoiver, clutched by each hand, pointed at her head. She made no effort to move, but seemed to be conscious. Blood was flowing from her mouth wien a surgeon arrived. A ball had entered the roof of her mouth and through the top of her head, carrying away & piece of the skull. She was taken to the hosphal and died at midnight. She is be. lieved to have been a music teacher. A card was found with the name Mlle. E. De Villers, 72 West church street, Frederick, Md. The police opened the dead woman's trunk and found in it $18.96 in a pocketbeok, and a bank-book showing a dey it of $400 in Missis- sippi state bonds in the Frederick county national bank, Frederick, Md., against which she had drawn about $125. There were also a dozen letters from people in Washington, D. C., and Frederick, Md., whose children she had taught, recommending her as a teacher. There was not ascrap of paper telling why the woman had shot herself or even hinting at it, nor was there any trace of relatives cither here or abroad. A dispatch from Frederick, Md., says that Mile. L. I. DéVillers came to that city in August last, and secured board in a private family on East 2d street. Soon after her coming she ad- vertised for pupils in the French language. and med a school September 15 at No. 72 West Church street.

The neighbors were there from far and near, and every one who came was welcome to eat. There was a small army about the board in the long dining-room and more wait- ing. and where Harrison sat was the head of the table. Malone hustled about like a tated hen.
