Althoun said to b'inarried on~ Jue 14, no oj suspected it until th ee weeks ago. Ti matter became a rumor about two weel ago. Father Sherman is the son of Micha, Sherman, a wealthv contractor living No. 15Warren stret, South Brookiv He courted Tillie 31eCov a few val ago, but when she refusad to marry hi; -it consented to the wishes of his iarent and becamc a p.riet. ..t ter ordinatio he resumed his visits to the IcC-v fai 1y, and finally indiud Miss Tillie t< marry him. The certemon- was per formed by Rev. Francis J. Schneider. o No. 91 Second avenue, New York, wht was roused out of bed to do the oiice. The groom said he was 27 years old an. the bride 25. It is asserted that even after the marriage Father Sherman per formed his priestly duties, and vehem ent:y denied to his mother and father that he was married. Rev. Father Lane of the Church of the Visitation said that he heard it in timated that Father Sherman had been married. "But as it was only a rumor," he said, "I paid no attention to it. Father Sherman has been away on a vacation for more -Jian three weeks, and, of course, before taking any action in the matter I want to wait a reasonable length of time to see if he intends to re turn. He should have been back several days ago. If he does come back I will not permit him to officiate until he clears his skirts of these charges. I understand that he denies that he is married. It looks very strange, if he is innocent, that be does not return or explain the cause Af his absence." At the Episcopal residence the Bishop's xcretary said that prompt steps would )c taken to ascertain whether Father iherman was married or not. As he did lot make any attempt to ofliciate, no etion had yet been taken. Besides, no harges had yet been made. Now, that hle matter was the subject of public dis ussion, prompt action would be taken. f Father Sherman could not satisfactor v prove that lie had not been marriedi .e w(nld be exconmunicated. Of course Lie marriage could not be sanctioned by 2c church, so, if he and Miss McCoy had t een married they could never again be r lentified with the church.

The result of this has beer to convert the State into a vast entomo. logical museumi. Nearly every thirdi 1 person has taken an interest in th< s alcoholie pfreservation of bugs, catapil 1 lars and insects of every description, - and, therefore, the consumiption of >spints has abated little since the reign of - temperance began. Defiance of the law [ was observed in all qnarters, especially in tle country, but no warrants were i-sued, the authorities knowing that it wouldbe useless to act with the old gang of spotters, whose rascally connivance with venal magistrates was recently ex posed by a legislative committee. The frauds of these spotters were so glaring that no jury would convict on their tes timony, and to the dismay of the Prohi I ition party their amendment to the con stitution seemed a dead failure, while ties' beadljess boys presaIted them selves and made known their alleged nission. The Joan-of-Arc call came to them simultaneously while they were boiling a dead horse, and they there and then I resolved to devote theinselves to the ser vice of the State as detectives. The father of the Barrnes boys has carried on the profession of horse knacker for many years, and his sons have grown up to b~e experts in the art of extracting the fats from the carcasses secured by the old gentleman. The authorities were at first inclined to treat the young men as maniacs, but the carnes;tness, honesty and candor of the lads pleaded for them 2 and they were allowed to try their 1 amateur detective hands on the violators I of the liquor law. Elated over their ap pointment, Waldo and Theodore re turned home and began to lay in an out- I it for their first crusade. In the light I >f their knowledge of detective work, G lerived almost wholly from books of the ronatihmi Wild type, the lads believed hey could only accomplish their pir- .0 )ose with the aid of disguises. From I he relies of a Jong ago stranded dra- y aatic company they procured wigs, a aoustaches, )irates' beards, corsair d hiirts and other suitable costmnes.

From the outset they met with 1.( gnal success, obtaining sales at scores C [ places and collecting evidence of the af ost.incontrovertible elaracter. They w )uld have obtained all they wanted by PO wink of the eye, but the striplings tai ere impressed with the idea that they fe( ust be disguised and that their throats fiv >uld be cut if their disguises should be Th netrated. Thus, instead of walking an and getting their drinks in a natural ga1 xy, they appeared as aged travelers, s staway sailors, etc., bent with years, vol mbling in gait and with hanging the agues. co" In this way the inspired youths suc 2ded in bagging fifty law- breakers. ye?

A oman's duty begins with the w< nm nearest to her by ties of blood an aSlection, and stretches out to those a< counted less fortunate than herself; bt 1t docs not end there. There are wome 1ar above her in the scale of wealth perhals, who need a wider outlook an( i)roader sympathies; who need to b diwn out of themselves and their ex elusiveness; who need to be interestedir the great, busy, struggling world outsid< of their circle, and to feel that upon tneII rests, in -part, the responsibility o: making it better and purer. In some ways they are more restricted than the woman who sews for them. The wife of a teamster, if she have the time, can take up any remunerative employment, and her friends neither question nor re pudiate her. The wife of a millionaire, nossessed of unlimited leisure, must be die. For "lie also is idle who might be iutter employed." If she can endure he epithet of "peculiar" she may give ier ilfe to the investigation and improve nent of tenement houses or devote her elf to a particular line of study; other vise her work for her fellow-men and oenidn will be confined to charity balls nd fashionable bazaars. To do" aught hieh would bring her a return in money not to be thought of for an instant. And from the wife and daughter of the ilionaire to the girl who starves be md a counter rather than go into a )mffortable kitchen, the same power is : work. Alas! how weak we are. Wo en may say that all honest work is en bhag, and all voluntary idleness :litting, and that, in comparison with .e woman who never lifts a finger to ,ve another, nor has a thought above r wn adornment and her social con iests, the woman who does the work of .r kitchen, if she do it well, is worthy all the honor; but the conviction has t yet become a part of them. r3AL"'E ('AaJET RUMO)RS.

Cluverius, who is confined be in the city jail for having murdered his ed cousin, Fannie Lillian Madison, is still ut kept in solitary confinement in one of a the upper rooms. His room is a small a one and overlooks the lower portion of x- the town in the direction of the Chesa e- peake and Ohio depot. The furniture ce consists of a single bed, a pine table, ;e with a bowl and pitcher, and a small ir pine bench, upon which are several t- potted plant--geraniums, etc. Cluverius is said to be very fond of flowers, and Lt whenever he writes to his aunt and. r brother, with whom he corresponds regularly, speaks of his flowers. Cluve - rins enjoys good health; keeps in good. - I spirits, and is polite and courteous to his keepers, who speak in commendatory t terms of him. His meals are furnished i him twice a day from a restaurant. , Cluverius wears a gray suit, and is I neat and careful of his appearance. He has his hair cut close, and shaves regu larly twice a week. He reads much the Bible and newspapers especially. His aunt and brother, who live at Little Plymouth, in King and Queen county, have not been to see him for several weeks. Occasionally visitors call upon him, but are not admitted without his consent. A reporter of the Dispatch called at the prison a few days ago, and Cluverius expressed his willingness to see him, provided that nothing about the visit was to be written. Th3 terms being so unfavorable to the reportorial business, they were declined with thanks. At Staunton, September 10, or soon thereafter, the Virginia Supreme Court A ppeals will decide whether it will give Cluverius a rehearing. If their decision is adverse, as it now seems sure to be, Judge Atkins, of the Hustings Court, will appoint the day of execution. A GHOST AT THE THROTTLE. A Strange Apparition Seen in a Worcester Workshop. For some time queer stories have been told of unusual proceedings at the Wor cester Steel Works at night. Complaints were made of assaults committed and of the general conduct of the men *ho in iisted on going in and out at will, until it length, to check those alleged out areaks, the managers requested police >rotection. Patrolman Dealev was de ailed to go on duty there after 9 o'clock t night and remain until early in the nornin. Michael Gleason, one of the em >loyees, told a Times' correspondent a, tueer yarn about an experience that he ad recently. He said that one night he ,as walking through the mill, which was rell lighted by electricity. When he assed the boiler house he saw a strange ian standing inside with his hand on ae throttle of an engine which had not een fired up. The man looked at leason for a moment. Gleason spoke > him jokingly and asked him if he was :ing to start up. The stranger's coun - nance did not change and his eyes emed to jump from their sockets. The an was unknown to Gleason, who had >rked in the mill a long time and knew erybody. Turning quickly Gleason n to the other end of the mill, very ach frightened. Large drops of per iration stood out upon his face, and ddenly he swooned away. Gleason d that he was cared for by his com nion, and when he recovered he told n what he had seen. He described aman's appearance minutely, even to the striped jacket which he wore, but one knew him. Finally some one alled the fact that it was aperfect de iption of an engineer who was killed years ago at the very spot where the inge apparition was seen by Gleason, ny or the workmen are firm in the lef that it wasthghsofheda ineer. thghsofteda The V'alue of Paiiteur's Process. [aving felt some uncertainty as to the naey of M. Pasteur's process for com ng that fatal disease hydrophobia, I e here some days ago to study the stion and the evidence on the spot. sten to say that all my doubts as to, validity of this greatest of modern overies have been dispelled, and for ollowingreasons: M. Grancher, who made a very careful analysis of :ses treated up to June 16 'at the Vauquelin, informed me that of 9& mnts bitten by dogs (the disease of li was certified either by the inocula of other animals after their death the brain or spinal cord proving ,or by the fact that some animal by the dog had succumbed to ophobia,) of these 90 cases only one subsequently to the curative inocu is. This gives a death rate of only per cent. Again, 644 patients had bitten by dogs the madness of iwas certified to by the veterinary itioner of the commune, and out of there were three deaths, which a death rate of only 0.46 per cent. tg these two categories together, math rate was only 0.75 per cent., as from a very accurate series of ;ies collected by M. Leblanc, vet y practitioner of the city of Paris, dts that, as a rule, 16 per cent, of isses may be expected to succumb drophobia. The value, then, as ancher says, of the curative process Pasteur may be represented as 23 as great as that of all other treat . I may add that, with the ex-. a of the prick with the fine-pointed on syringe, patients have no other mece to complain of, as there are tely no symptomsc, and 10 punct i 10 successive days are suflicient. the question is therefore judged, who are in danger should submit little operation.-Dr. C.
