iY CALLED "BLACK MARIA"
ton Negress of Colonial Tfmef Re
?pomlble for Designation of
Police Patrol Wagon.
t terror to evildoers was the real
final Black Maria, and quite as
[ulin helping to keep the peace as
;Wack maria of today. Blaak Maria
d in Boston and in Colonial times,
i was a gigantic negress, named
rie Lee, and she was mistress of a
ore' boarding bouse down near the
irvea.
ailorfi came to her from all over
world. They w^re often a wild,
gh set, but they never gave Maria
[trouble, for her huge size was well
inced by her prodigious strength.
I told that she once brought three
akeu saHors at once to the lockup
en they had grown too obstreperous
be kept longer in the house.
lie fame of Maria's strength grew,
that she became of great assistance
the authorities, for when men got
be violent or quarrelsome Black
lia was sent for and soon reduced
immily to obedience. In ttms her
mtation spread all over Boston, and
i lawless element grew bo afraid of
f that often the threat of sending
Black Maria was enough to quell
('worst cases of insubordination.
*ew people know of Black Maria
I as the boarding house keeper of
ponlal days, but she handed her
be down as a menace to the vicious
[future generations, in the modern
p wagon. To "send for the black
W*" is as much of a threat now as
VUin-Maria Lee's time.

NEW IDEA SEIZES ENGLAND
" I' 9
(.??gut to Prevent Domestic Breesea
Prom Developing Into Qelee le
Latest Fad Taken Up.
A National league for the Promo
tion of Domestic Happiness U the lat
est proposal for Kngland. It has for
Its promoters a few clergymen who
have been Impressed by the extraordi
nary number of couples In their par
ishes 'who have obtained separation
orders fro rh the magistrates beca?i*?
of domestic strife.
The idea of the clerics is that
magistrates are too accommodating to
applloauts chafing under the matri
monial harness aad If efforts were
made to Subdue domestic breezes
they would mostly be prevented from
developing into gales. Ho this league
Is to organise ministers of all denom
inations and kind Christians of both
sexes to act as peacemakers.
They wl\l take their respective par
ishes under survey and In cases of
household strife where the husband
Is at fault the member of the league
most likely to Influence him will bo
selected to intervene and subsequent
ly keep un eye on the culprit. If the
wife is the offender then some sym
pathetic woman will plead with hoik
Most, enthusiastic workers among
the poor, especially in the north, call
these separation orders the "working
class equivalent to divorce, ' the lat
ter being too expensive for them to
obtain.
The consequence Is they have no
real freedom, and looseness of morals
Is the result. In industrial centers,
where both husband and wife are
wage earners, this 1b especially the
case. I ..an cash Ire alone has 25,000
people separated by law, but not free
to remarry.
SAYS OYSTERS SUFFER AGONY
Dp. Wiley Asserts They Endure Ago
nizing Pain When Doused With
Tabasco Sauoe.
"Oysters on the half shell suffer un
told ngony when eaten," said Dr, Har
vey Wiley, formerly Uncle Sam's pure
food expert, the other night, according
to a New York Herald Washington
correspondent.' "Ninety per cent, of
them when eaten are alive and kick
ing. They suffer the most excruciat
ing pains when you jab them with a
fork and follow with a sprinkling of
salt, pepper and tabasco sauce.
"It is true that they are a very low
order of life, but as they eat and drink
they must be live animals and have
feeling. Imagine some monster com
ing to earth from Mars who thought
that we poor human beings were very
succulent morsels of food when eaten
alive. It would Indeed be a nice sen
sation to be poked full of holes and
covered with about six pounds of salt.
"However, this will not deter me
from indulging in the delicious half
sh^ll habit. I am going to eat my
oysters in such a way as to save them
pain1 ? one jab wit;h a fork, put the
sauce on quickly and then gobble it.
r "It's a good thing that they can't
yell and jump, for if this were so oui
dining rooms would be full of tragic
moanlngs and shrieks. However, this
would not be so bad, for we would
then have the alternative of cooking
them."
Paid Scott $15,000 for a Poem.
What 1b the highest price ever
. paid by a publisher for a poem? It
would be interesting to know whether
any advance has ever been made on
the $15,000 that Scott received for
"Rokeby." Stephen Gwynn, in his Ufa
of Mooro, tells ua that Murray offered
$10,000 for the copyright of "Laila
Rookh," "but Moore's friends thought
he should have more and, going to
Longman, they claimed that Mr.
Moore should receive no Iobb than
the highest price ever paid for a
poem. 'That,' said Longman, 'wai
$15,000 paid for "Rokeljy."' On this
basis, they treated, and Longman was
Inclined to stipulate for a preliminary
perusal. Moore, however, refused,
and thfe^ agreement was finally word

PoeVf Unhappy Childhood.

the only one of the lot that lived. His

brothers and sisters, and was suf
