In Navarre in early times murder and suicide were considered treason and in- volved confiscation of property, while homicide was punished by fine and deed- honiicide (slight wounds) by lighter fines. Killings from engeance and for gain were distinghished, and murder in a church was held to be an especially odi- ous crime, especially if the church was consecrated. The Fueros of Etella and St. Sebastian permit the killing of a burglar, but if the owner of the house can seize such bur- glar he must not kill him. And if he does and a relation ot the dead man says, "You have killed my relation under differ- ent circumstances from what you say; he was not at your house," the slayer must then swear and undergo the proof of hot leen to prove that he killed the man when in his house and net wantonly. If the accused gets over the proof of the hot iron without hurt, then the accuser has to pay. If the parties prefer to fight a duel, they can do so, but this it not the cus- tom." Later on in Navarre torture became general and penalties more severe. For example, incendiaries and their accom- plices were hanged and burned. The custom of Soule (sixteenth censury) Or- ders the ears of recidivist bandits to be cut off and recidivist robbers to be hang- ed ,and strangled; ale° those guilty of arson in houses and mills to be beheaded and to have their goods confiscated for reparation of the damage done. In La- greze words: "bld Fueros, like the gen- eral, are not as severe as when the penal system was thoroughly organized. It is impossible to have any idea of the va- riety and absurdity of the punishments prescribed." As an illustration, the theft of a cat is punishable by a fine of the amount of flour which would cover its whole body if piled up around the aforesaid cat. When the offender has no flour, the cat is tied to his naked shoulders and then beaten to make it scratch and bite the thief. In Bigorre fines were leas in amount than elsewhere, especially in Bearn, and they could often be paid in kind. Whether this was attributable wholly to the hu- manity of the people of Bigorre or to their poverty is not altogether free from doubt, for at Pampeluna the fine for kill - lag a man was 1,000 sols or 40 measures of wheat, of barley and of wine, while in the mountains hard by it was 240 sols or 12 oxen. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. A little vinegar put into a frying pan and heated on the stove removes the odor of onions or fish from the utensils. A hint for the laundry is that calicoes, ginghams and chintzes are all much bet- ter ironed on the wrong rather than the right side. Soiled photographs may be cleaned by sponging with clear, cold water. The cardboard mounts may be cleaned by rubbing with dry bread. Flatirons that have been redhot do not retain the heat so well afterward and will • always be rough. Do not put there on the stove too long before they are needed if there is n very hot fire. Baize bags are invaluable for large and small pieces of silver. A case of knives on -ger forks can be refute of n straight piece • of baize, with a pocket stitched on, which has a compartment for each single knife, ' Tapes fasten this when rolled.

The'speaker was stopped by another of the party, whose face had signified his uneasiness at the description. "Don't, my dear sir," said this gentle4 man, who is a power in the .financial circles of Philadelphia. "Your reminis- cence is very pretty, but your mention of the antebellum stagecoach revived a memory which is even yet a horror to' me, though it Is over 85 years old. .1 bad an experience in one of your laud- ed vehicles once that afterward made me walk nearly 100 miles to• keep from. entering another, and to this day when- • ever I am unwell er troubled in any, way I am sure to dream of -the occur rence, and my wife, bearing .me groan- ing, will awaken me, with. the cold per- spiration flowing from my body, and, say, 'Dreaming again of your stage- coach' fright, aren't you?' And yet. I natter myself that. I am not more cow- ardly than most Mesuiii, The company insisted on the story. It was given, as follows: • "As most of yon know, my, fatherno death followed close on the heels ef his, failure in business, leaving meghis son and only surviving member of his fstin ily, without a penny.

"'Get off that seat,' he yelled. 'I Will drive myself!' "1 saw he would not hesitate to shoot me, so climbed down with alacrity, when he advanced toward me and, threatening me still with the pistol, made me get into the stage. • "Do you know who I am? he asked. 'Well, I'm the devil, and Pm going to drive you to hell.' "This speech and his !poke,' which were those of a lunatic, and a danger ono one, too, in his extitement, told me the truth, and I can tell you I felt the fey sweat break over me, but I climbed meekly into 60 coach and watched the madman mount to my seat. I could on- I,y hope that be Would still retain wit enough to drive slowly, but the first thing he did was to bring the lash down upon the horses with a viciousness that made them start into a frenzied run, and then the Maddest, most terrible journey a man ever undertook began. . 4Ths stage spun along like a crag M' SO' ; lee et The hInglieh lady who was killed on c oss erg" tallacrers-3 n" wl teens land hes been identified tta Mies Mar- garet,Oravvford, daughter Of a British India official, tihildren Cry CASTOR1A. top, the Moue. „,uileptug whely, springs Ing wildly IIQW and then to a cut from the shouting drIver'e whip, svbile, abso- lutely slick with terror, I had not strength to leap into the 'oad, as made up my mind to do time andagain. 1 smile undoubtedly have been killed at the rate at which we were going, and it was the bare shred of hope, which they say never wholly leaves us, that kept me from springing out. Part of the time I crouched on tbe fieor, hiding my face in the cushions; but, fascinated by the terrible scene outside, 1 could not refrain from look - Mg out upon it again and again. On one side rose a perpendicular wall of rock as bare as my hand. On the oth- er and barely five feet fr us where I looked out were the canyon and cos, tain death. "The stage swayed fearfully, and every time the whip cut into the horses they would swing it to the very verge of the precipice, when I could look down the wall and see tbe river's gleam, wben I would threw myself against the opposite side of the vebicle. Once the hind wheels literally hung over the edge for the thousandth part -of 'a s&ond, though it seemed an eter- ntty to me, but were jerked on to the road again just as I felt the stage drag back into the chasm.

I doubt if the madman on the box was further off his balance than I at that moment.

An Interesting Old Watch. A curious treasure, a watch which belonged to Louis •XIV, is preserved in the presbytery of Ragnonnas, in Avi- gnon. The king gave away the watch under the following interesting circum- stances: Before the'building of the sus- peatilon bridge from Avignon to Rag- nonnas a ferry was made use of, which frons time immemorial belonged to a family by the name of Arnoux. A mem- ber of this family one evening 200 years ago took over a company of great noblemen and in so doing showed ex- traordinary skilL One of the gentle- men presented him in recognition there- of with a handful of louts d'or and also with a -watch. This man was Louie XIV. This large, round watch, a master- piece, has a silver case, which is so• artistically chased that it resembles a fine spider web. On the ltd is the bust picture of the king In laurel wreaths, held below and in the middle by two cupids. The alai, with Latin notations, has no hands. It is pivoted. and while turning the numerals come opposite a lily chased on the edge. Tbe interior of the watch Is of the same fine Workman- ship and the mechanistn a marvel of precision. The watch is still attached to the same now faded cord with, which 200 years ago Louis XIV took it from his pocket to present it to the ferryman of Ragnonnas. -:. Jewelers' Cirmilar- Weekly.

According to him, a patient whose nails are not quite smooth, but contain many furrows, is suhject to acute dis- eases, sincwat is the inability to take adequate tiourishment,,caused by such diseases, which makes the nails de- fective.
