A pretty woman must first of all iiave 1 le. rty cut r gulur features. She nti-t h: ' fud.cio.ii eyes. She must have a skin tnat is above reproach, untoueUed by rouge or pow der She must have gh.s y hair that has never knonn the touch of dye or bleach. She must have. . aijood- fiirit-.i inrp enono, efc-Biriuier enougll. though neier ecgcstive of an anglt-. SIk- must have a white, express ive h; n I, preferably a small one, though not of nei essity, if it is well kept and white. She must have small ears and a thri-mt that is like a marble column lor hei head. Mie must know now to put on her clothes or sue loses half her beauty. Shv must fully understand what suit? her rest, in the way of hair dressing, and cling closely to th t. A woman may have all these at tractions, and unless her own per sonality is charming, unless she ha-tact, it daw ns upon you after you have seen her once or twice, that she is not a pretty woman but a pretty doll.

TIT FOK TAT. A Very Cunning Honltand Oeta Left Hla Wife'ii Way. A very well known business man of Virginia City, says the Enterprise, who gets on a booze once in a great while, has a spouse who will not brook anything of that sort at all. During their many years of married life she has invariably raised Cain whenever ' the old man came home full or late. One night last week he got home at about 5 o'clock in the morning, feeling just full enough to be cunning. He had been playing poker all night and had a pocket full of silver. He went into his wife's room, undr-s-ed, put on a night shirt, got an um brella and squitting in the center of the room and spread it over himself. "No. mv d"ar; it is n.t going to storm," sfie sail ; "I think the wea; her will clear oil' until alc.ut 3 o'clock this afternoon.'' With this sh placed a colicky baby in his lap and commenced dressing herself. Her behav.or paralyzed him. He did't have a word to say. she put on her hei . clothes, took all lhe silver out ol his pants ocket, and sallied forth, while the old man was trying to sing"Hueh-a-by, Dabv." She called on all her ft iends during the day, and treated them to whisky aid, beer, sending lo saloons for'the stuS' Ironi every place she visited. At about 3 p. M. she started for home, gloriously, though not up roariously full. The old man, whose head had been bureting for want 01 sleep all day, 1 nd who had exerted all his will power to keep himself from killing the baby, is the party who broke the storm that dav. The old woman says it's glorious fun. and longs tor another opportunity to repeat the performance. An International Complication. Philaclelphie Telegram, While Judge Kiley was on the east coast of Africa he came near bringing on a war between this country and that to which be was accredited. The trouble actually went t j the point of his being ordered to quit the country; but. with Ins accustomed cleverness and diplomacy, he settled the dilfieuliy before it had gone too tar. The house of the Consul, where he lived with his wife, was on the beach, with a wide stietch of sand in front. Every morning the en tire village mprched down to thi. stretch of sand in front of the bouse and made their toilets. The Judge did not like the idea of a loi of naked savages squatting around in front of his house in this way ; hediJnot think it becam" the dignitv of a repiesentative of tin- great United States and the Stale of Virginia to stand it. He pro tested; then protested frequently Cut it availed nothing; the sav ages insisted on making their toilet theie Finally he was provoked bevond endurance. He loaded a irun with very fine birdshot and lay in wait. One morning there was the report of a gun, and a number of naked citizens went running in inanv directions with trreat cries of distress. Later that day a delegation of the dig.t taries. headed by the Prime Minister, waited on the Judge to notify him that he could go home, lhe Judge protests that this was a summary proced tire that his government would resent, and made a long and elo quent defense of his action, but the delegation would not hear to it. Finally, he said he would ap peal to the Oueen ; he was sure she would protect him from this indignity. The Prime Minister looked solemn and shook his hea "It is the tueen you have shot," he said.

Wasi.-inuton, Sept. 20. There can no longer be any douot that .Minister Mizier's report of the circumstances connected with the murder of Genera; Barrundia on the American steamer Acapulco nas been received at the state de partment and it can be stated on the best authority ttiat the corres pondence has been sent to the president. Officials at the state department still maintain their policy of silence and decline to make public the information they possess concerning the tragi dy. It is believed here that Minister Mizner has played the sorry role in the whole atiair and that the official correspondence places him in such an unfavorable and unen viable attitude that his spperors are actually ashamed to let in the light of day on the transaction. The public is interested in know ing how much responsibility is at tached to the United States min ister for the bloody termination of tne horrible affair and no one here can understand whose interests can be subserved by throwing a veil of secrecy around the facts, unless those of Mizner. One theory suggested is that as it is known that congress will call for all information in possession of he government of the caee, it is lesired to retard its transmission as much as possible, with the hope that congresss may soon adjourn tint that pending its reassemblage oublic interest in the affair mav die out, and the matter be allowed lo slumber.
