A Cutting Scrape, Investigated, But There Was Little in It. Seyeral Fines Assessed by His Honor. Finis Campbell, colored, was ar- raigned in the police court this morn- ing ona charge of mistreating his daughter, Jettie. ‘The judge said the facts seemed to be that the girl was unfortunate enough to have been led astray by & man named Thomas MeRay. The father gave the youth a day or two to marry the girl or else get shot, and the time has sbout expired. In the meantime, he proceeded to wreak his vengeance on the daughter, and the court took him to task for this and advised him to geta warrant against McRay for seduction, and if he refused to marry her he would have to go to the penitentiary. Mc- Ray, the court said, was willing to marry, bet wanted owaika tow dye. | ‘Mis trousseau is not quite ready. Campbell was fined $5 and costs for striking his daughter, and was recognized 1p the sum of $100 for his good behavior towards McRay. If he kills the latter, he will bave to pay the $100 or go to jail, perhaps both. This would be great satisfac- tion to MeRay, no doubt. Bud Elrod was fined $5 and costs for a breach of the peace. He aod nother young man had a difficulty last night on Broadway near Second, and Elrod got the other man down, Joe Roscoe, while trying to separate them, was cut on the hand.

Asuton, Secretary Board Examiners, | Orange shorboteteray ab Stuis's : INGS CONCERNING HAPERONES. A FEW - ‘There are a few pointers concern- ing this indispensable adjunct good society which seems to be Jittle understood by a number of people. A party of young people wish to go somewhere—picnic. all, boating | be it what it will—tbe first thought ts of the chaperone. To large cities the | codes of society are so well known by its followers there is never such ao unpardonable offense a8 a mistake being made, But in the smaller towns wherd MWstrictures of what is correct are comparatively a new thing, where the parents ve’ dreamed of chaperones and the girls have to be their own educators some very absurd mistakes are made, mi takes so ludicrous that the ‘great world’? would laugh—politely of course—-but lavgh and shrug their shoulders at the gaucherie, For ins stance, how often we read of the beautifal Mrs, Newwed a bride of of- ten only wfew-weeks acting as chap- erone. Nothing could be worse form. In fact the bride of a year cannot act as chaperone, on the con- trary, she herself must be chaperoned on all occasions of the tn illustrate the severity of these rules: A very beautiful widow who spends her winters in New York bad an in- vitatign to go yachting; a day’s cruise around the bay. She is about 35, with two children school, and the owner of the yacht was old enough to be her father—a great swell who visits Eogland and hob- nobs with the Prince of Wales, The Prince had taken a great fancy to his last yacht and induced him to sell it, so this was a new one, even finer than the other, It was an invitation half New York would have ‘given their heads’’ for, so it must be accepted, but the chaperone! No trouble to have secured a dozen as young or a a little older than herself, but as the host was quite old the duenna must be elderly also, because you see it was to be only a very small party, the host, the pretty widow, the chap- erone and a staid, dignified gentle- man to entertain her. Of course she was found, but even in Greater New York a very elderly lady who would enjoy & day’s tossing on the Atlantic is arara avis. So you see the rich have their own troubles as well as the poor, and they are often more dread- ful because they sre only bug-a- boos. But the slightest breach would stamp them ‘‘bad form,’’ and the words ‘‘mauvais boute’’ is to polite society something as dreadfully awful as the ‘‘Bodie man’’ to the bad litte boy. An elderly maiden lady can only act as chaperone when she, to ommon phrase *‘woulda’t look .”? As long as she cares for se sogihg, is “not available ;"’ it is only wlien she Scorns‘the advaniecs of anything masculine ‘that she could exercise the ;roper vigilance-over her charges; always keeping ber weather eye severely open, These thousand little things which one must under- stand if they attempt to play society and be thoroughly conversaut with the ways of the polite world are, to tell the truth, a horrid bore and a nuisance; still it has to be endured. it is the ‘noblesse oblige’? that gives prestige and tone; that outward and visible sign which stamps you perfect man or woman of the world. Geneva, A PLAGUE. Grasshoppers Have Stripped Ev- erything in Graves County. Now Roosting on Fences and Tel- egraph Poles Waiting For Fall Planting. Mayfield, Ky., Aug. 153,—Grass hoppers are taking the c county. Some of the cornfields are stripped of every blade of fodder and much ofthe cora ia the ear is com- pletely ruined. Clover fields are a total loss to the farmers, also many of the pea patches. Fences along the roads are literally covered with the striped hoppers and telephone poles are adorned frow base to apex with swarms of the pests. he farmers say in traveling along the roads the grashoppers will fly 80 thick across the road as to completely hide the view, There seems no way for them to rid their fields of the plague, and their present crop will prove a great loss from the ravages of grasshop- pers. No wheat can be planted here this fall without subjecting it to total ruin, a8 the grasshoppers would cut every blade which shows itself above ground. The oldest farmers say they never saw such 9 plague before.
