About twenty-eight of thirty families were supplied at acost of about $100. As each family repre- ented on an average of five persons at least 20 deserving poor were supplied. Of course in many instances clothing and shoes were siso given in addition to the 4 and fuel supplied, but acting irable, those needing such articles were first’ supplied.

There was an unusual attraction, says the Norristown, Pa., Herald, at the civil courts this morning that set the occupants of the hill offices and of attorney's row ina flutter. The cause of tho stir was the presence of J. Monroe Shellenberger, the one time famous legal light of Doylestown and Bucks county, who after brilliant career and more conspicuous fall found himself an imate of the Eastern peni- tentiary under the ban of a twenty-two years’ Mr. Shellenberger was summoned as a wit- ness in the case of Enos R.

A few moments later the party went to court room No. 2, where Mr. Shellenberger drew off his overcoat and occupied himself with a copy of the Times. The news quickly spread throug] nd clerks, lawyers and deputies peered through the glass doors into the court room, much to the annoyance of the object of their gaze, Among his old-time friends contrasts were at once made between this trip to Norristown and his former visits, He was known as the genial, jotial “Shelley.” Mr. Shellenberger passes the time at the penitentiary as bookkeeper of the institution and he is said to be proficient in that line. — Nerves and Nerve. After a seven years’ courtship George Bailey, & well-to-do farmer, and Esther Bailey, his cousin, have made two attempts to get married in Norwich, Pa., within two weeks, and the wed- ding is off. The ceremony was to have been per- formed last week Wednesday and a large number of guests were present. Suddenly the prospective bride disappeared and was found locked in her room. Toherparents' appeals tocome out she only replied: “I'm too nervous! I'm too nervous! It'll have to be put off!” Nothing would do but a postponement to Monday. Monday came and the bride was over her nervoumess and read; But now the bridegroom did not come. Instend | he sent this message: “I'm not nervous.

THE WOUNDED MAN REMAINED CONSCIOUS. Although the bullet had entered his brain Jim was still perfectly conscious and remained #0 for more than an hour. Policeman Barry was called to the house, No. 482 School street southwest, and the injured man told him the circumstances under which the affair happened, exonerating Alice. He was very much worried about ‘the welfare of Alice and protested against her being ar- rested, as he said there was nothing to the affair except as above stated, He was taken to the Emergency Hospital and Alice was arrested. As the man’s condition did not appear to be extremely dangerous at that time and there being no doubt about the man- ner in which he was injured Lieut. Vernon re- teased her and she returned home. Later in the day, when the condition of the man was reported by the phhsicians as critical: Alice was rearrested and taken back to the station. She said she did not know it was loaded. Her brother in Alabama, she said, got the weapon for her and she put it in her trunk. Yesterday Jim called at the house soon after breakfast and she invited him to her room to give him the present. She thought that her brother here must have had the pistol and loaded it. ALICE 18 UNDER ARREST. Alice is a woman of excellent reputation, but she will be held until the man dies or gets bet- ter. His chances for recovery are very slim, as the bullet is undoubtedly in his brain, ei Svcensleeniy HOME LIFE OF COUNT DE LESSEPS. Seandal to Which He Was Subjected by His Wi Appeals of Madame de Lesseps to popular sympathy in France last week have proved a failure. Her description of Castle La Chenaye wa bare barn, insufficiently heated and fur- nished, is contradicted by hundreds of Paris- ians who have visited the Lesseps family seat in the last two years. The fact is, as everbody in Parisian life knows, the aged president of the anama Canal Company has surrounded him- self with all the luxury that his social station’ required and has prided himself ospecialiy upon the richness of the comfort which he has been able to afford all visitors at his present residen: do Lesseps has been especially anx- Madar ious to shine as an entertainer and has spent,as she still spend, the old man’s money with a lavish hand. She is therefore hated cordially by the poor people in France who have lost heavily by investment in the Panama canal enterprise. At the same time she gets little sympathy in Paris from friends of the Lesseps family, who have spread industriously in the last few days some astonishing statements as to her influence in breaking down the aged engincer’s mental and physical strength. They say that for the last twelve years, or ever since the inception of the canal enterprise, Lesseps has been so harassed and betrayed by his young wife that he has been hardly account- able for his words or actions, She was ixteen years old when Lesseps married her and he had Passed sixty. For the first seven or eight years their life was happily spent. Then she began s career of reckless unfaithfulness under her husband's own roof. At her instance he enter- tained lavishly at Castle la Chenaye. Under the pretext of exceptional hospitality she made excursions with the guests, which always re- sulted in a small scandal within ¢he household. A SCANDAL IN THE FAMILY, Once, a friend of Charles de Lesseps says, she ran away with a French senator to Nice and did not return until Charles de Lesseps, who hastened after the couple, had driven away her companion at the point of @ revolver and had given her the chcies of divorce and imme- su. Charles de Lesseps, id, has already fotight duels with men who cast doubts upon his relationship with his stepmother. in Paris understood that it was perilous matter to mention Mme. Ferdinand de Lesseps in ‘her stepson’s presence. That her husband was tormented society has | day and ‘night by her conduct was generally known, and it was equally apparent that he failed mentally and physically under his domes- tic burden. Several times he was driven al- most to the point of suing for a divorce, but every time desisted for the sake of the canal company, which he believed would suffer from the stigma placed by the scandal upon his arrest Charles de Lessepe said, Iv. that his father had been too much occupied with private matters to observe the methods of the company. He referred un- doubtealy to the painful distraction afforded by the necessity of guarding Madame de Les- seps. At present Madame de Lesseps poses as a heroine at her disgraced husband's bedside for several reasons. She is anxious to get as much as possible of money when he dies, and she wishes to conciliate Charies and Victor de Les- seps so that they will leave her in peaceful pos- A Christmas Feast.

SHEPHERD'S BLEAK ‘MOUSE ON THE SEVENTH STREET ROAD MER- TIONED AS PLACES BEIXG CONSIDERED BY THE PRESIDENT-ELECT. Real estate inwyers in Washington, and there Innd is again on the lookout for a suburban locality he prefers, for a presidential resident is © good advertisement for any suburban prop- | erty. The first report was that law partner | Bissell had, through representatives, bought | the old Lay farm en the 7th strect road | from Don Cameron for a price somewhere near $100,000, which would be a little over $1,000 an i ecre. The second rumor soon followed and was | to the effect that it was not Den Cameron's place, but ex-Gov. Shepherd's Bleak House estate, further up the road. The price was not given and the story was noteo circumstantial sethe other. Then it was asserted that ex- Marshal Al Wilson was looking fur a country place for Mr. Cleveland in "flaryland, some- where along the beautiful rocky stream known who in 1886 bought Oak View for Mr. Cleveland his reconnoissances in that region were founda- tion enough for the story. None of the agents or Inwyers who have qharge of, the lands said to have been bought for the President-elect will say a word about the alleged sale. It te believed that instead of having bought aferm Mr. Cleveland has taken an option on two places until he and Mrs. | Cleveland can inspect them in person and de- cide which they want. One thing seems cer- tain, Mr. and Mre, Cleveland will live in the White House Just as little as possible during their four years’ stay here, for they found their life at Oak View much more comfortable than | town life in the hot summer ‘and fall months atthe capital. Besides a country home will be all the more desirable with « baby in tne ly. The t choice of the presidential rep- resentatives 1s the Lay farm. This is now known as Rossie Park, and embraces ninety-one acres. Don Cameron’ bought it five years ago, and spent several thousand dollars insubdivid- ing, building roads, planting trees and other- wise improving it. ‘It was put on the market, but at such high prices that nobody would buy, and it has remained intact as one holding. It is bounded on the north by the Bleak House property, on the east by the 7th streét road. on fhe south by Congressman Cooper's farm,which he bought last summ-r for $10,000, and on the west by the proposed Rock Creek Park. ‘There is a fine large frame house on the place, and the greater part of the ninety-one acres ts in grass. An electric road runs in front of Rosse Park | and turns at the nértheastern corner off toward the pretty suburb of Takoma Park.which would be Mr. Cleveland's nearest post office. His next door neighbors would be Mr. Cooper, the lively Indiana Congressman; B. H. Warner, a well-ad- vertised real estate operator, bank president and ¥. M. C. A. man, and Louis P. Shoemaker, a country gentleman with a finestable of riding horses and a splendid pack of hounds. Bleak House is inhabited only by the people who take care of the place during the absence | of the owner in Mexico. The big stone man- | sion, with its sumptuous furnishings, is never | opened except for its regular airing and dust- ing. If Mr. Cleveland should buy Bieak House iindelphia.

There was charp fighting on both the farms that Mr. Cleveland is said to have in mind for hoe. The old barn on the Lay farm was | riddied with bullets, and for over a quarter of | acentury the school boys have been digging them out of the doors and lintels with their | ck knives. Just south of the Lay farm is the | ttlefield of Fort Stevens, where nearly 200 | rebels bit the dust before the retreat was | sounded. About a mile north of the Lay farm | is the old Montgomery Buair piace, where the barrel of whisky is alleged to have been drunk | by Early’s officers, by which supposititious in- tervention of Providence the defense and res- cue of the capital by the Union troops were made possible. A few steps up the road from Mr. Cleveland's le home is a little cemetery where lie the Rumor Has Already Selected Two Sites! How Christmas large at the Pinkney Memorial Church's morning. The decorations were tasteful beautiful and excellent music was rendered the choir. No sermon was preached, eed Rev. Edward Wall, spoke feelingly of ‘the pastor and ii as the Northwest branch.

From a flagstaff | in this cemetery Mr. Cleveland may see the | national colors from sunrise to sunset the year | around. To the south of the Lay farm and on | the same side of the road is a picturesque little | Gothic church known "Battle Abbey,” } whither Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland and little Ruth | may wend their way any fair Sunday and hear astalwart Methodist sermon long enough to | give them some idea of eternity. These proposed homes for the Cleveland fam- ily are on the highest land in the District of Columbia, in the region where Mr. Cleveland wanted to go in 1886, and from which he was only with great difficulty persuaded to turn his face toward Oxk View. former home of Mayor Emery in the little vil- | lage of Brightwood, a mile and a half south of where it is now proposed he shall live. Mr. Cleveland found Oak View a good purchase, buying it for $28,000 and selling it for $110,000. It has been cut up into blocks and lots, roads have been built, sidewalks put down, terraces graded, houses built and various other improve- ments made, so that Mr. Cleveland's Jersey heifer and the seal-brown horses would never recognize their former pasture. Either of the other farms that Mr. Cleveland is reported to have in view would prove nearly as good an in- vestment as Oak View. They border on Rock Creek Park, the eastern boundary of which in that neighborhood is 16th street extended. That street leads directly to the White House and through the most highly improved part of the city. With the construction of a fine boule- vard along 16th street extended Mr. Cleveland's farm would be greatly improved. What is now the back would then be the front. But such a change could be philosophically borne in con- sideration of an advance of 100 or 200 per cent in the market value of the tract. GOLD IN UTAH. But It Will Require Money and Machinery to Get It Out. The first thoroughly reliable reports that have come from the new placer diggings in the south of Utah have just been received through the re- turn of a party of old California miners, who were among the first to go into the new district, and have prospected it thoroughly. They think there is gold there and it will eventually become ‘& good camp, but all those who are now rushing in expectation to gather up gold by the handful ‘will be seriously disappointed, and very hard times are in store for them. “To work the new piacers,” they say, “‘re- quires heavy machinery, and to each bedrock you have to go down an unknown depth ‘through quickeand, which you must plank up all the way and keep steam pumps constantly at work to keep out the water of the river. ‘There are at least a thousand men already in the new camp, and practically nothing 1s being done except by one company, which is now tun- department has made a report to the Secre- neling the hill to change ‘the course of the river so it can work its own land.

The single tax question has again engen- dered bad feelings among some of the citizens of this village and caused no little excitement, It appears that a prominent advocate of that measure approached « certain resident of this place few evenings ago and asked him what w thought of the plan of bonding, the town which was talked of by the antis, The gentle- man replied that he knew nothing about it, and was then informed that it was oneof the issues of the coming election and that he would have an opportunity of voting upon it next spring. He also told the gentieman that if the wealthy land owners would pay for bonding the town he would be in favor of it,and then endeay- ored to prove that such would not be the case, but that the poor lot owners of the town would have to bear the burden of the debt, and that the benefit therefrom would be reaped by the rich men, _ When some of the antis were informed of this interview it caused them to indignantly deny that they hud made any such movement and to say that the single tax adv. ‘Two of the gentle- men whose names he mentioned in connection with this matter have written him spicy letters on the subject.

One of the leaders of the single tax oppo- sition stated yesterday that the report was a mere subterfuge of the single tax men, intended to avoid the one issue. It is generally thought that the question of bonding the town has not been talked of by those prominently connected with the opposition to the single tat movement. Mr. Chas. H. Stanley, counsel for the single tax people, has refused to argue their side before the court of appeals and retired from the case. It was at a public megting held in this village a few years ago. and not a few days ago. that | the question of bonding the town was brought up which caused so much discussion. A number of prominent single tax opponents have paid their taxes under protest, and only about 20 per cent of the entire levy remains unpaid. ‘It is believed that the balance will be id at an early date and that the necessity for levying upon property for the collection of taxes in arrears. will be avoided. ‘The Bladensburg Episcopal Sunday school will hold its Christmas celebration at the old Epise evening.
