The Detroit Zribune tells that a woman re- cently approached Gen, Sherman in a railroad car and, pulling at his coat, asked: “Is this Gen, Sherman?” “Yes, madam.” “Gen. Sher- man, I felt that I must see you, I wanted to look at you and talk with you. I had three brothers in your army, in the fifteeuth corps, ‘Iwo of them will never come back!” The gen- eral straightened up in a minute aud his eyes got a little moist, He would have done any- thing for her after that. Turee brothers in his command and two killed! He sat there and talked with her with such courtly dignity that, encouraged, a crowd of women and girls, the companions of the sister of the three soldiers, crowded into the car. No one would have suspected that his nap had been spoiled. The woman who had awakened him was young and by no means unattractive in appearance. Her color deepened as the train prepared to pull out, ‘General, is it—is it—true,” she asked, hesitatingly, ‘what they say about your kissing the women wherever you go?” “I'm afraid it is." “Well, why do you do it? Does it please them? I don’t know whether it does or not, Some say it does.” “General, I—can I"— then she stopped. “Can Ido it?” she finally blurted out. ‘The general was on his fectin an instant ry reaching up, she gave him a good smac! os Time for Him.

PROSECUTING ATTORNEY ARMES STRONGLY OB- JECTED TO THE SMALL AMOUNT OF BAIL—$200— ACCEPTED BY CLERK CLAGETT AND WANTED THE BAIL FIXED aT $3,000—waS THE JEWELRY TAKEN FROM THE GRAVE? The announcement in yesterday's Stan that Mr. W. 4. Cook, as counsel for Dr. William W. Beall,who is charged with grave robbing at the Congressional cemetery at the grave of Mrs. Cheek, said the accused physician would ap- pear in the Police Court today attracted a large crowd of people there this morning. Mr. Cook had Dr. Beall in the clerk’s office shortly after 10 o'clock and Clerk Clagett accepted bail in the sum of 200 for the doctor, the latter's father going on his bond. Soon after 11 o'clock Dr. Beall, accompanied by his father and Mr. Cook, entered the Police Court and Mr. Cook called Judge Miller's at- tention tothe case. He said that he had ful- filled the promise made yesterday and had sur- rendered Dr. Beall. “I didn’t know of such a promise,” the judge remarked. “But I made the ares said Mr. Cook, “and Lhave now fulfilled it. The clerk accepted bail in the sum of $200, which did not seem to satisfy Mr. Armes, and I would hke the court to settle the question.” He suggested that as the government was not ready that the case be set for the same day that Dr. Adams’ case is to be tried. PROSECUTING ATTORNEY ARMES OBJECTS. Mr. Armes said that the bond was so singu- larly out of proportion to the horrible offense charged that he felt called upon to raise an objection to the small amount of bail that was Queer Comments by People Ignorant of Croquet and Tennis, basis of a household franchise, one member . = accepted, * 4 from the Youth’s Companion. “Wha fe the offenes charged?” asked the | being allowed to each district of 40,000 popula- |" ‘Those who are cutirely outside a game, by court, tion; three-yenrs sessions of parliament; a gov- = reason of their ignorance of its laws, are sel- dom sympathetic as critics.

They would not mind paying that amount and then continuing the business, MB. COOK ASKS FOR AN IMMEDIATE TRIAL, “We want a trial,” said Mr. Cook. “Oh, it was so exciting!

LOUIS. Alfred H. Plant, a Wealthy Society Man, Married While on a Big Spree. Alfred H. Plant, thirty-eight years old, son of Geo, J. Plant, a millionaire miller of St. Louis, is periodically subject to mental aberration, though this fact was never known before, even to his most intimate friends. Two weeks ayo he drew $3,800 from the firm and began drink- ing heavily. He wound up in a low den pre- sided over by Mollie Murphy, who is well- known to the police. She took entire posses- sion of the man and his money and his jewelry. She plied him with strong drimk until he was irresponsible, Last Wednesday the woman ordered a carriage and, taking the helpless Plant with her, drove to the recorder's office and secured a marriage license. The clerk did not know Plant, and as he was suffering from the effects of drugs it caused some comment, The woman, who was equally unknown, ex- plained that he was sick and that he insisted on & marriage sothatshe could nurse him. The license was issued and she drove to Justice Sheehan's office, where the marriage ceremony was performed. Plant's friends heard that he Was associating with disreputable people and instituted a search for him, He was found Sat- urday in the Marphy house and taken in cus- tody by a detective. After an examination by physicians at police headquarters he was pro- nounced insane and committed to St. Vincent's insane asylum, where he is now under treat- ment. The escapade caused a big sensation in commercial and social circles. Justice of the Peace Jerry Ryan, who performed the cere- mony, says he knew neither of the parties. He was summoned and went to the woman's house, where Plant answered all the necessary ques- tions. He was under the influence of liquor, but not more so than other men whom he had married. The police learned that the cab driver eae ¢ justice to the house was paid 100, said s farmer whose “folks” kept sommer boarders, ‘hey cali it ‘lawn tender.’ ” “Good?” inquired a crony at the store, “Wal, 1 dunno. seine an’ a lot o° Now aud then, however, an unprofessional eye will see at once into the very heart of a kame.

A FEW SUPERSTITIONS, Same of the “Charms” Formerly Used to Prevent Sickness. From the Hospital, . To allay hemorrhage, a toad, well dried in the suv and put into a bag, was hung round the neck by a string sufficiently low to teuch the region of the heart; and a preparation of garlic and honey smeared on the person was said to act as a charm against the bites of dogs and reptiles, or the sting of numerous insects, likewise effecting their cure. Toothache could be charmed away by a few leaves of the “shep- herd’s purse,” placed in the sole of the shoe on the reverse side of the body to that in which the tooth was aching. An excellent recipe for weak or sore eyes was the expressed juice of the calyx of the red honeysuckle; provide: always that the flowers were gathered Rusatings repeating nine paternosters in honor of the trinity, nine more ‘to greet our "and creed. Rest and sleep were acquired after ap- plication. Another iption for the eyes much in favor with Anglo-Saxons was e paste made ot the strawberry plant and pepper, diluted with sweet wine. Children were passed rh the split stem of a tree for the cure of the rick- ets, but the fracture must be afterward bound up sufficiently tight to insure cohesion. For ague a very well-salted herring, split open, was applied as hot as possible to the soles of the feet. It might also be mitigated by the habi- tual wearing round the neck of an emeraid—a discussing the question of bail at this time.” “Upon whose motion is the case to be con- tinued?” asked the judge. “Weare ready now,” said Mr. Cook. Replying to Mr. Armes’ remarks Mr. Cook said it was due to his client for him to state that Mr, Armes’ remarks were nothing but the purest fiction and had no foundation whatever. “I can name at least six surgeons,” ir. Armes, “who would willingly pay the $200 and let the defendant go.” “That's another conjecture,” retorted Mr, Cook ‘and a stretch of professional imagina- tion,” THE COURT ON THE QUESTION OF BAIL, The court said that almosta uniform rale as to the amount of bail had been made here. In fixing the bail the court only has to fix an amount that will secure the attendance of the party charged. The punishment the law at- taches to the offense must be taken into con- sideration and not public clamor. The de- tendant always suffers the moral consequences independent of the court's action. ‘The court has no consideration to take be- hind the offense charged on the paper, ‘The paper in this case, said Mr. Armes, charges one of the greatest outrages that can be perpetrated upon society; he, therefore, renewed his application to have the bail fixed at $3,000, CLERK CLAGETT EXPLAINS. Clerk Clagett explained that he accepted #200 bail, as he thought that amount was sufli- cient inasmuch as Dr. Agams was only on his personal bonds. Mr, Armes said that he knew the pros of convicting Dr. Adams, and he also what the prospects were in this case, Judge Miller again referred to the reasons for fixing bail and said that in determing the matter he would take into consideration all of Mr. Cook's ability and ingenuity and then set- tleitas though Mr, Armes had an iron grip upon him. Mr. Armes explained that he had no feeling in the matter other than his duty as a public officer. All he wanted was to secure the at- tendance of the defendant, Again he renewed his motion as to the amount of bail, Mr. Cook referred to Mr. Armes’ claims and te ew ee THE AMERICAN GIRL As Seen Through French Eyes—Max m tent ii .

A large number of printers attended the special meeting of Typographical union, No. 2, ip Philadelpbia yesterday, to take action on the refusal of the proprietors of the Inquirer, Norta American, Record, Press and Times to grant marked Mr. Shillington to Mr, Armes in an un- dertone. “Yes Iam,” replied Mr. Armes, ‘MRS. CHEEKS’ MISSING JEWELRY was mentioned, and Mr. Armes said he in- tended also to file a charge of larceny, “I have no doubt,” said Mr. Cook, “but that you would charge hitn with taking heaven and earth before you get through.” ‘There's no doubt,” retorted Mr. Armes, ‘but that he would rob heaven as he has the earth if he only had the same opportunity.” BAIL FIXED aT $1,000, Judge Miller ended the discussion by fixing bail at $1,000, The doctor's father again qualified as his son's bondsman. Sanitarians Going to Cuba, Dr. Hamilton, supervising surgeon generalo the marine hospital service, left the city this morning bound southward.
