SHE FOUND HER SOUL-HATE. Ttonton In. PluktU Hus It Fir thar Use hr lit HistwL i Chrlatlatw Scientistskcparalr bp Rnl ul AfteamHH-Tha Prleateaa Urn With Mar Affinity* I * N. Y. World: John J. T. Plunk* and hia wire, Mary Hodgkins Plunkett, have been known as high priest and priestess among tbe Christian scientists of this country for several years. Together they have taught their peculiar views, ami performed their healing art in Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco and Washington, and about two years aifo they came to New York and opened a temple at No. 13 West Forty-second street. Dr. Plunkett is a fine looking man of thirty-eight years. His wife is his senior by three years. Hbe is decidedly hand some, with a most charming manner. Mr. and Mrs. Plunkett were married nearly twenty years ago in Massachu setts, and have two bright children, a daughter. Pearl, twelve years old, and Paul, a boy of eight. In their work an Christian s {enlists they wen very successful and are known to. have made from flo.uuU to I&J.Oju a year by (heir teachings and mind cum. With the advent of A. Bentley Worthing ton, however, a change came over the little household. Worthington was born near Hcbenectady in this ntate, in 1H46, but went to California with his parents in 1860. He has resided there ever since, until sis months ago, when he came to New York on hia way to Europe. Here be became interested in Christian science and also became intimate with the Plunk ett*. He postponed hie European trip and Mr. Plunkett saw and grieved silent ly over the growing intimacy between hie wife and the Californian. Mra. Plunkett was in Washington in March last, as was also Mr. Worthington. Thar telegraphed Dr. Phnikeit to nisei them there. He responded and he and his wife had a long and earnest confer ence. Khe told him franklv. prayerfully and tearfully that they were not intended for each other, that she had met tier affin ity and asked to be relieved from her marriage vows. He was forced to admit that their relations were not as they should be, and blether they drew op and signed an agreement of separation, as follows; We. the undersigned, having dedicated our lives to the service of Tlte Good, ami determined to apeak, act and live in ac cordance with it. do declare, both to youi who faithfully serve and to you who earn estly seek the truth, as follows : For many years we have recognised that the affection between us was purely fraternal, wnd we have lived and worked together as friends. Having feared the reaulta of its publication and the possi bility of our example proving dangerous to others, we have hitherto conceal'd this fact. We have now gained riper wisdom; we know with deep and glad certainty that Truth always and everywhere proves a blessing, not a curse; we'know that our action, far from being a stumbling-block, will only aid the many wbo are striving to solve the same problem. We, there fore, from the mpst profound conviction of doty, do jointly declare our marri iue contract null and void in so far aa it lies in our power to render it so. la thus candidly taking this stand befor human ity. a bom we love and strive lo serve, we experience that •‘peace which pesseth understanding” which the world and the opinion of the world cannot give or dis turb. The Truth haa made ns free I Jobn J. T. Pimm, Mabv H. Piabxktt. The now divorced couple retired, but on the morrow they awakened to the idea that their action was hasty, and that should it be known among their thou sands of pupils and followers the exam ple might be injurious. They then, ac cording to Dr. Plunkett, resolved not to publish the paper, but hold it-inviolable between themselves. Mrs. Plunkett, however, held the document in her pos session, and conceived it to be her doty to give it a place in the April number of the International Mofeuirf of Christian Science, of which she was editor and part proprietor. To all inquiries the Plunk etts declare they bad for yeara led Uvea of continence and celibacy, though main taining the outward semblances of hus band and wife. They insisted that they could thus do Qpd’s holy works more ac ceptably. Worthington, however, bream* an ob stacle to all Mrs. Plunkett’s preconceived theories. He and Mrs. Plunkett wrestled with ihe subject of their love until they believed they were justified In entering into marriage relation. Their minds once marie up as to the right, they invited adocen of their friends to the Temple a few day* ago and there before them gravely announced that they bad been married since their creation; that they were foreordained as husband and wife, that they only went through the present form of ceremony to save their conduct from misconstruction by their Irisoda and the world at large. Thao the bridegroom solamaly and rev erectly repentcil a formula agreed upon by thorn, aofoUowo: In the proaemo of (led and you my friends hers assembled, I lake Mary Hodgkins Plankett to be my mile, pram iaing. with Hiviae assistance, to bo unto bor.a faithkl and. loving husband, tor ever and forever. 1 Mrs. Plankett then repented the (or wnie and the coepls received the ooogratu- I latinos of thoir friends, and then retired i to their rooms npolnire, when they now reside. With then are the two children, I Paarl sad Paul The home is a comfort- able one, and to all appaarancra theoccu-, pants are happy and contented, at least they seemed so to a World reporter who paid them a visit last evening. Mr. Worthington greeted the caller aithout 'embarrassment. as did his bride. The reporter aaked if lie amid extend the | nsnal congratulations. There wan a mo ment of hesitation before she answered i “yes.” Then the blue eyes dimmed with | tears and the sweet lipa trembled as she laaid: I “I am sorry if our private affaire have I become 1 own to the public. But we 1 felt it couid not be concealed end are ready to accept the «-ruel thimes that will be saul of us. We shall not complain. Our hearts anti our consciences tell us ws have done right and that God has ap* prove*l our marriage, although it ia con trary to human laws. Oh! if tl* world could only kcow the true, the God-like motive* that actuated us it would fed as we do, that we have done right. We do not expect the world will Judge us juatly, and we are prepared fur llieir harshest criticism. “We do not expect to win the world to our views at once, but wa shall devote our lives to securing the liberty si our people, and especially of woman. “Do not confound us with the free lovcrs, for. we bci.eve in marriage and would have it an even more solemn com pact than it Is at present, but we also hold that divorces should be •'ranted with aa much facility os marriages are allow ed. There is a true soul-mate fur every one, apd every one will be restless until that one is found.’* The beautiful sroman was earnest in her plea and realised fully that she and her husband would be subject to the cen sure of the world. Mr. Worthington look but little part in the conversation, but listened attentively and was apparently satisfied with the ar guments she advanced. “1 suppose w p- shall be deluged with letters to-morrow/' be ‘exclaimed, when she had finished. Hl* looked op smiling into his face, and, laying her hand on his arm, almost moaned aa site replied: “Ah! darling. 1 am afraid we shall have no friends who will care to write to us tojnorrow.” On the same street, and almost in a stone's throw of the Worthington-Flunk ett home, the repatter found the deserted husband. He was nested In his sumptu ous office at hie desk, dressed os for a promenade, except that his feet were en cased in poid-embroidsred slippers, lie was calm and placid, bat sad. Ha con firmed the statement of his marriage, his' separation from hia wife and her subse quent marriage to Worthington, but ap peared to bear no malice or resentment. “It Is true/' he said, after a thoughtful silence, “that my wife and I have lived lives of celibacy lor several years. Our separation was decided on that wa might appaar iiefore our people in our true light. Ido not approve of my wife’s con duct in taking up with this man Worth ington, and think that she has only suc cumbed to the weakness of the flesh. 1 fear her example as a religious teacher will be bad to other*.’' ''Shall you apply to tba courts for a di vorce?’’ was asked. “Oh, no. Ido not believe in going to law under any circumstances. Ido not deem H christian-like on my part to pre vent her marrying another if she believed she loved him.” frrfirrH the ligfcr frire. The story is told of a retail dealer who obtained a rare bargain in ladies’ hem stitched linen handkerchiefs, which he designed to sell at a fair profit at 2b cants each. On examination of the goods he determined not to give such value lor so small a sum. Taking one-ball of this lot be marked each handkerchief in iha cor ner with a lead pcm-il, 26 cants, and the other half of the lot, precisely the same style, and quality he marked in the same way, 8J cents, and displayed the goods on hie counter side by side. Imagine bis surprise when he found that his lady customers, on their own judgment, ami after seemingly careful and critical comparison of the goods, in two pun bases out of three, selected the bargains at Sd cents, leaving him with the larger part of those marked 26 cents on hia counter.

TU Clfintts Hu Foul lb Wiy to Their Finr. five, ttaralaad asi Nr*. Whitney lairadacsd the fashion In WatklsfiM Society. Hoicking is a habit which is no longer confined to tbe masculine gender. The Psrislenne has her silver box in whiv'h the small, sweet Havana filled cigars are kept moist; the Russian lady cannot content herself with leas than seven cigar ettes between dinner and bedtime, and from Bernhardt down to the Bowery cltorua girl, tobacco is nofr vnly regarded as a soothing luxury but a necessary ad junct of tbe toilet, ahd as indispensable as a pot of cold cream. It is true that American women have smuggled cigar ettes and smoked them in college (oomi, in kw V. yards after dark and in the pri vacy U their boudoirs, but never till recently has the habit been admitted or the fa» moiled at by relatives i .tilt Saw. 'evt laod was in the White llonar n4 gne disdained the proffered roll of Turkish tobacco. The fair and radi ant mistress did not care particularly for the weed herself, but it was provided al ways and passed round a fa Rutte to the ladies with black toffee or demi-tasse. At Mrs. Pei-retary Whitney’s beautiful epreads the cigarette trays were as much a part of tlie service as the bone dishes or finger bowls, and the ladies in tbe for eign legations did her the honor of pro nouncing her tobacce superior to any grade to be found in American circlet. it wan thought that Mm. Langtry would lie authority (or fashionableafter her debut in "As in a Looking Glass,” but Iter manipulation of tbe sweet caporel did not make tbe expected impression on the smoking critics. Old stagers pronounced her inartistic and awkward, and the lady smokers in the profession who went to see her said that, between a dread of set ting fire to her clothes and getting the smoke in ber eyes, she was painfully amateurish. A fashionable vcrtsry of the weed, who has charge of one of the most elegant baths in New York, Is responsible (or the later-day grace and eaas with which the Jersey Lily learned to smoke. Originally her metliod was masculine. She held tbe paper roll between her fin gers. leaving the thumb free, as they say' in Deloarte schools, and allowing her large while ban! to fill with angles, whereas tbe curves of grace should bend every digit. Aa a result of ill Uitoring, she habituated herself to holding the cigarette in the corner of her mouth, and it was a longtime Ufore she could be made to understand that such a position gave her a tough appearance. Mrs. Whitney's cigarettes are reserved for her intimates, and before the Derby box, with iU grotesque carvings in silver, is open one might fancy the service to contain the die, sealing wax, wafer and writing material for despatching a note to some high dignitary of state. On the tray are dainty patties lor receiving the ashes, a match safe of exquisite work manship, a vase form filled with cigar ette holders, and usually a vestal lamp of wrought copper and silver, against the soft radiance of which some very lovely figure* have been silhouetted during an after dinner coffee. Fancy, if you can, the piquancy of an artistically disposed fuweute bending over the little flame, her head inclined to one side and a halo of etherealired essence wreathed above the burnished hair. There is a picture in the gracefully arched wrist, in the turn of the shoulder, tlie sweep of her waist and the position of a neatly dressed fool that one can admire and enjoy without the power of reproducing the study. Nowhere is a cigarette so thoroughly enjoyed as in the boudoir of La Princess Eagaletchieff. like the senior Selvini, this daughter of Russian nobility carries a supply of Turkish tobacco wherever she goee, end thinks no more of bsing whim sical than does the American lady w)u> provides herself with a favorite brand of soap and perfume for a continental jour ney. In her opinion the American to bacco is very bad,'for which reason she thinks our ladies ignore the weed. But no fault can he found with her cigarette tray. She brings out a little pad of rice paper, opens a lacquered box in which the average critic mi*,ht look for a pow der puff, and with hn own beentifnl fin gers sfoons and rolls the tobacco, strikes a match and passes to her guest tbs light and dgaretts. 11 you are an habitue of her drawing room it is quite possible that she will carry the weed to her thin, scar let lipa, apply the match, inhale a breath or two, and, handing the lighted cigarette to you,’she will blow away In wreaths a cloud of blue-gray vapor as delicately and gracefully as any cavalier you ever ad mired in smoke, flesh or fiction. Hhe confesses to the inspiring influence of a good cigarette, and will of(en ait at her piano and improvise some sweet, ssd, dreamy theme, watching, not the keya of the instrument, but the curling smoke 1 that to gracefully and naturally descends j from her nostrils. To Mine. Modjcaka i* doe the credit of ( overcoming the prejudice of society to ayrnp-sweetened cigarettes. Like La Princess Kngaletchleff, she had smoked since aha was a young lady, and when she came to this country and allowed her self to be feted and feasted and petted by werteen aristocracy it was only on rondi-i i lion that she should have the same free dom aa at home. Alter the long and 1 heavy dinner* she retired to her room and thought nothing of consuming an entire package of tissue roiled tobacco. At first society was content to look on; later it admired the esse, grace and enjoyment of the soft voiced, sad eyed lady and after trial came habit until noW there are whole families on the visiting list of the Polish artist, where mother and daugh lera are votaries of the weed. There ie to-day scarcely an actress on tha staia who is not addicted to cigarette smoking, and instead of the pernicious effects supposed to result from tbe habit we are told that the very reverse la- the case. A Vaasar graduate, who is one oi the brightest of young women in the pro fession, has this to say: “At college 1 learned to smoke. What girl doesn’t! We used to beg cigarette* from tbe boys and smoke them surrepti tiously. It wasn't always as amusing a* you might imagine, particularly in cold weather, for the windows had to he kept open to let tha tell-tale fumes escape. We smoked when we wen alone on the campus, and when 1 went home 1 smoked in the garret, and took Turkish bathe Just for the sake of enjoying a cigarette without being interrupted. That’s where I learned Co bold a cigarette, to blow od rings, to tee picture* in the blue smoke and to look pretty. Anybody can puff away at a cigarette, but you have to study for effect* just a* you study to make a point on the stage. That woman was an artiste though. Hhe came from Faria and had been a smoker from child hood. She knew how to handle a cigar ette so as never to drop ashes on her dree* or the carpet, and she had a dainty wa> of taking the weed in the tips of hir Ibuml Ib and forefinger, bringing it to her mouth with a curl of the arm and tip ping up her chin to mret it in a style that waa •imply captivating. Then, too, ahe oaed to.tell me to ait before the lamp or window ao aa to let the l.gbt play through my fingers, and she taught me to expel the smoke through my nostril*, and to show the profile of my face in the blue, wreathing clouds. I know of per haps three hundred women in the profes sion, people I have worked among ami traveled with, and out of them I could name possibly five who do not use to bacco. "Harm? "Nonsense! There lent any mdre harm In throwing yourself back la a chair, with a cigarette between your Upa, than there is ;{n gorging yooreelf on a pound nf bonborts. Ij’s'all a question of taste, and to my mind there la no differ ence between the gam chewing, candy munching and cigarette smoking habits. After the play it la not possible to sleep. The actress is wide awake. She is all excitement. Her faculties are keenly alive. She has ideas, fancies, fears anil they mast be expressed in. something or to somebody. The men can go out and walk. We women are denied that con venient form of freedom, and so we do other things. We smoke and gabble, sip lemonade, nibble a biscuit, get quiet and tired and then go to bed. "Financially smoking is not such a had habit. 1 don't spend a dollar a week for tobacco, and if 1 werff aa passionately food of candy I would have nothing left of my eatery. Think of paying f1.25 for maroon glaces and devooridg a box a day. Ah! but there la no fun in a fruit (Tyatal and I can see the future, find fame, rest, fortune and be with the creat ures of my dreams, in a package of cigar ettes." Uni ky • Uafclifc. The Hoo.

W amumuton, June 10.—There promisee to be a hof contest (or the political con trol o( tbe new states of North and South Dakota, Montana and Washington, which will be admitted to the Union during the coming autumn. Tbe republicans will make every effort to carry all (oar, while the democrats will be satisfied with Mac tana and North Dakota, both of which they believe to be debatable ground. The importance of tbe forthcoming election in the (our new states will ba better understood when it Is remembered that eight additional senators and five ad ditional representatives in congress de pend upon tbe result.
