All was well at home till Saturday when the faithless spouse instead of coming wrote a letter saying that she would not longer live with Mr. Dent. This led to an Investigation w hen il was found that all her personal etlccts have been removed, thereby putting emphasis on the assertion that her separation Is final.

On the Fourth of July Hagon heck's menagerie In the Midway Piaisance, at Jackson Park, Chicago, was the scene of a thrilling incident, which barely missed being a tragedy, and would have been but for the courageous act of a noble dog, that was willing to lay down Its Hl'o for its friend and master. Liontamer Darling was giving an exhibition, when the largest lion, Pasha, broke loose from the chariot. As Darling tried to get back Into place again it turned and sprang upon him with a savage roar; the trainer leaped aside nimbly, and the lion only ripied his I cont from neck to waist. The n iso lators shrieked, and then held their breath with horror, as thy beheld the savage beast about to spring again. But ere the lion could spring one of Darling's Great Dane had it by the throat and cheeked it. The trainer has two Great Dam's that he ha raised from puppyhood, and during the evening's performance they do their share of trained act. Darling always kec one of them in the cage arena with hiai; and bis confidence in his dogs, in case of any accident, was not displaced. The dog must have known that to inter fere on it master s behair was almost certain death, yet it did not hesitate. It sprang to it master's rescue and courageously aeiz.sl the infuriated king of beasts. 1 he lion roans I with rage and endeavored to throw otf the Great Dane, but the dog hung on with the greatest gameneas and thereby gave it master an oppor tunity to escape. The crowd cheered wildly, and Darling seized a cudgel and with marvelous nerve attacked the enraged lion Just as it at last hook off the dog. The trainer's first effort landed on the lion's nose with terrific force, and he followed it with a perfect storm of blows so accurately aimed and rapidly dealt that In a few moments the huge liea-st lay at his feet thoroughly cowed. He quickly drove the lions to their dens, and then, leading his brave dog, ad vanced to the middle of the arena, where ho stood for a minute or so caressing it and bowing to the audi ence. The people went simply wild with delight, and there was many a woman aye, and man, too who would like to have throw u her or his arms round the dog's neck and given It a good hug. Dog Fancier.

Here Is another slitical prayer mat has some good i-ints. ,,n Ala bama pns r is risju-ible for its cir culation this far. A republican, a dcims rut, a prohi- tiiuoiii-i. nnd a oiR-third party man went up itd) the temple to pray. The republican sbiod with his face toward heaven und prayed: "O Lord we thank Thee that we are not like other men. We thank Thee tirst lor all the pure, incorruptible, holy re publican party. We thank Tins- that all democrats are liars, and we alone are good. We have no sxs Ial favors to ask, know ing that to be consistent Thou of nc.fsr.ity must ls with us." The democrat said: "O Lord Thou kuowest that we don't often Is.ther 1 bee with our prayers, vet there, be few wherein Thou can be of gwat use to u. Bles the party, but give Cleveland ami hi civil service to the devil. Bless silver but down with the traitors. Bless Boies, of Iowa, Neal, of Ohio, and Curse such democrats as Secretary Qresham. Tho rest, O Lord, you can safely trust theiu.to our care." Tho prohl fell upon his knees, as usual, and prayed. "Thou knowest we have done naught else for these many years but pray. Now we are golug to fight and ask that you stand by w bile we show the Phari sees that there Is a G.xl." Then the one-third man dropied on his marrow Ixnies and prayisl: "O Lord, we would ask It as a special favor that next jetir Is.' not so pros perous as this one bus Iss-u to our people. Thou kuow est, O l.rd, that we can thrive U-st as a party In the midst of calamity. We know that Thou art all powerful, and can bring pestilence a"s well ns bountiful crops. We beseech Tlusa to Increase the intensity of the cyclones and the drought, lower the price of cotton and be merciful to tho grashiipcrs, and then, O Lord, help us to con vince the people that the distress and calamity that follows Is all caused by the democratic party plutocrats. If Thou hcareth us in these petitions and w ill grant them we will bother Thee no more." P. ft. "Provided, O Lord, that we can all get otlice. Amen." Long lMsf Alice 'li'lepbony. The American Telephone and Tel egraph company- recently gave an exhibition of their long distance tele phone lines to a small party of guests who assembled at tho telephone building in Cortland stns't. Among those assembled to witness the exhibition were Dr. Von Helin holtz, Prof.stsor Alexander Gruham Bell, Dr. Herman Knapp, Miss Knapp, Professor Seth Iw, Profes ros Ogden N. Kood, Professor Gtsirge E. Dechweinitz and Mr. Edward J. Hall, Mr. Miiille Eaglcston and Mr. F. A. Pickernell, of the telephone company, lcwiics some representa tives of the press. A liuinler of receivers were ar ranged so as to give each of the party n connection in the line. Coiuartioii was made w ith Boston, Chicago and Washington in turn, and conver sations wire held with officer at those points. A cornet was nNo played which was heard through Ann miles of wire as distinctly us though It were in an adjoining room. The conversation with the headquarters of the telephone company at the wor.d's fair was held with perfect ease, sH'akii.g in an ordinary tone of voice. J. M. Samuels, chief of the horti cultural il. urtmeiit of the world's fair, bus written an Hrti.le for the New York Graphic on the horticul tural department, and in it he takes iK-casion to say some very good things of Oregon fruit. 'I'he article contains a couple of illustrations of the Oregon exhibit. Mr. Samuels says: "The Oregon apples are not only of un usually large size and beautiful color, but all are fr.-e from tho attacks of insects and fungus growth. The pleasure and profits of fruit growing are magnets which attract more cultivators of the soil to a country than all other ciiusim combined, and therefore, intending immigrants con stantly surround the obliging gentle man in charge of the exhibits.
