He was a man well worth looking at. Of the average height, compactly built, with a face that women would admire at. first sight, alheit it was a grave, qui et one, and in no manner handsome.

On the j ortieo, label over with morn ing glory vines, alive with blooming bell-shaped blossoms, su oj two ladies. One was small and. pretty, with dark eve- and pouting, red lips, whom the woman instinctively recognized as tin* rose with thorns; tin other was tali and heautilul, ol the statuesque order, with blue-gray eyes, and a mouth as sure, t as an angel's. Something like admiration w as in the gipsy'- glance as it rested upon the lat ter. She was clothed in some thin white material, which lloated alxntt her like a cloud. Beauty unadorned was personated in her. In the heavy golden braids that wore caught up so carelessly at the hack of her head, there was not so much as a hit of ribbon; at her white throat noth ing bur the snowy rutile; on her slim, capable hands, no ring; nothing enliv ening about her, in the way of orna ment, it 1 except the double rose-col ored altiiea that was fastened at her waist. They regarded her wonderingly. What a <jueer creature she was! What a perfect Witch of Kndor! Maggie France drew herself up, “What is your business, woman?” "Maggie," and the tall, stately girl, whose appearance had so taken the gipsy by surprise, lifted her clear eyes beseechingly to her friend, "do not speak so abruptly. The woman looks Unshod and tired Let her sit down here in the shade ami r cst. Perhaps she is hungry.” “And if so, who cares? She has no business to come upon one so suddenly. Ugh! she is uncanny enough to chill the blood in one’s veins. I should think she would be tired, carrying that heavy mantle around, i should think it would smother her. Well, woman, if you have anything to say, say it, and begone. We do not entertain tramps.” ‘‘Hush, Maggie!” interposed linr companion* But the gipsy cut short her words with a gesture indicative of contempt. “I am sure yen do not,” dryly. ‘‘You have the heart of a stone, the temner of a shrew. Lady,” turning hei back to Maggie, and addressing the one who interceded in her behalf, “I am Myra, the gipsy. My province is to reveal the hidden events of the future. Let me unravel the skeins of your destiny?” But Maggie, at her words, hurried forward and lifted her curious face to the woman. “Why didn’t you make known your errand before? It would have received immediate attention. I want you to peer into my palm, Myra. Do read rne my fate,” with her most wistful look. .She was a creature of variable moods one moment sunny and smiling, the next, frowning and repellant. The fortune teller shook her head. “I do not care to treat you to a chap ter out of the book of Fate,” she said, with stolid indiference. “Come, Myra, do’.” pleaded the girl. I adore Gypsies and I must have my fortune told. Come, tell it me and I'll give you a shining piece, else your word helic you, and a basket of goodies to carry away.” The Gypsy snatched away her hand, which the girl in her excitement had caught. “A bit of food tendered by you would choke me if I tried to gulp it down. I do not want your money. You are a rose so environed by thorns that no man would care to pluck and wear it upon his bosom.” “And you arc a wicked old creature —half-woman, half-devil, who can see no further in the future than I,” ret rt ed Maggie, her temper again in the as cendant. “She is a cheat, Eleanor; don’t trust her.” But Eleanor Carlyle, whose nature was somewhat imbued with German mysticism, bad made up her mind that thin woman, not of the earth earthy, could tell her what tin; mystic future had in store for her, so she said unhesi tatingly: “I—l think I’ll hear what she has to say, Maggie.” “You’re a hig fool,” then, irritably exclaimed Miss France, as she ruth lessly stripped off some of the purple morning glories and tossed them to the ground. Of eoursc, so shrewd a woman as Myra knew whom Stanley had refer ence to whi'n he concocted the plot that was to win him a wife if carried safely out. It was Maggie. But Myra had determined to reverse the order of things, and have her revenge on the tantalizing little elf for treating her so cavalierly. “To-be-sure,” she reasoned; “the lit tle vixen tin let love so lin i and rich a gentleman as the otic who employed me on so unusual an errand; but she is not half good enough for him, and I’ll balk his plan of winning her, if possi ble. He is an upright, snlendid man, and she”—meaning Eleanor —“is a sweet, dainty woman; and. if I can I’ll bring them together. In the end he’ll thank me for frustrating bis scheme.” She took the delicate palm the girl extended, and studied the intricate lines. “You are in love,” she began, boldly. At tills the maiden aveited her face, which rivaled in hue the althea at her waist. “And,” mercilessly went on the pre tended prophetess; “you will he—yes, you actually will be—married in less than a year’s time. And to such a grand man, with such lots of money that you can wear youi diamonds and have a. new gown every day, ifyou wish. He is not what yon would call tall —not what you would call handsome. He i but,’’ breaking oil abruptly; “what is (his I see? Lady,” Hashing the light n| her black eyes on the listening girl, “are you a coward?” “Not in the strictest sense of the term, Myra,” the startled maiden slow ly replied. “Why do yon ask?/ Because, (thus saiih the oracle) if you wa it to know who is to be your husband, you must hie to the spot a few rods from here where ,vo roads meet come together like (lie tints f a fork to-night precisely at nine o’- clock. There underneath the linden which ovcislvnlows th by no means gruesome spot, you will see him the man who is to be your fate, who is to guide you along life's devious ways. Art thou afraid, mv lassie?” “Nay, mother, Ido not think so. It will be a bright, moonlight night.” “And the man who is there will pro tect you from all danger that is liable to befall you. II e is ast mug. muscu lar man.” “But but it is a bold, unwomanly act mother," stammered Eleanor. “Does does mv future “Husband, suggested the Gvpsv, as the girl blushed and hesitated over the word. “Does he know anything of what you toil me, Myra?" ••Certainly not, child,” boldly assert ed the woman, imvardlv laughing at the consternation of the man. when, instead of a wee flibbertigibbet a tall, graceful maiden, with a face like a pic tured saint, appeared before him. What would he do? Would he be mad? Or would lie recognize the su perior merits of the girl, and gladly submit to the inevitable? “If not, he is a dolt,” she said, as she descended the steps. “Anyhow it is his fate: he cannot avoid it. Kismet! It is written.” At the ap{H>inled hour, nine o’clock, dnstin Stank y was stationed under the linden, the moon shedding a silvery light athwart the face of the earth, and falling on the grave, perplexed counte nanee of the waiting man. He was not sure but he had doin' a verv foolish thing; for. after all. did he love the heedless girl well enough to make her his wife? A,-, the thought flitted through his mind he saw the figure of a girl in the dis tanec a slender, graceful figure, that assuredly did not belong to the kiss he had purposed making his wife. Who could it be? His amazement was over powering when, asl.e approached near er, he saw that it was Eieanor Caro le, the lady from Brooklyn who was spen 1- ing the summer at the country-seat of the Castk'tons, neighbors o! the Frances. He had met her frequently during the past month —had admired her greatly; but he idea of falling in love with her had never entered his head. Why was she there? Had she come to meet her late? Had the woman gone to the wrong house, and had she sent the wrong girl to hint? Surely, surely if he were to propose, that dainty, sweet faced girl would never consent to be his! But he felt even now that it would be no difficult task to learn to love her. He stooped out from under the drooping branches of the linden—tins man whom Eleanor had prayed might be the one to meet her there in the moonlight and softly pronounced her name. “Miss Carlyle! Ami mistaken? Is it von. or is it your wraith?” Dressed in whit-. with a white bur noose covering her golden head, she looked not unlike an apparition—a sheeted ghost. At the sound of his voice, continuing her wild hopes, Eleanor sank back all a-tromble. It was—it was Justin {Stan ley. She tried hard to utter his name, but was unable to articulate a syllyble. But he. growing bold, advanced nearer and said: “I must really see whether it is a be ing of tlesh ami blood, or a creature without a substance—a shadow." She held out her hand. on skeptic! Touch me and be convinced. I am only an ordinary mor tal, —not half so interesting an object as a ghost.” “More interesting, however, to a pro saic creature of Uesh and blood like me, he made answer, as he took in his the extended hand, whose touch sent an electric thrill through his whole body. No, indeed! it would be no trouble to love this beautiful girl—it would be a delight, he thought, as their hands dropped apart. If he could win her he would feel like blessing the Gypsy, who either purposely or through mistake, had sent her to him. The chance should not be thrown away. So when she said, “I must return home; J have been enticed too far away already by the beauty of the night.” he offered his ajrn, and said; “I will accompany’you. If you are not a ghost yourself, you may see one on the way.” “.Not TANARUS,” she laughed, “but your com pany is such a provocative of enjoy ment that I will gladly accept it.” This gave him the desired courage. “I—l wish, Eleanor, that we might walk along Iffe’s path together. Do you not think you would be happy as my wife?” The answer would have been unintel ligible to some, but it satisfied him completely. Thanks to the Gypsy, lie won a wife who would be a helpmeet— who would not frighten him with her ehullutions of temper. Woman-like, Eleanor confessed how she came to the spot to meet her fate; man-like, Justin kept silent as to his part in the plot, hut he longed to know whether the gipsy was aware that she had sent the wrong girl to him. And because of her hasty words to the gipsy, Maggie France lost a husband and Eleanor Carlyle won the man she loved. And Justin Stanley always kept one secret from the woman he grew to love with all his heart. AX INTRICATE PROPOSITION With tVhii h Major .Wax Crratly l’u zlfil Ills W Ife. From the San Francisco Chronicle. “Did it ever occur to you, my dear, that a person going overland would have to mail two letters a day from the train in order to have one letter a day return to San Francisco?” asked Major Max the other evening, after the cloth was removed from the table, and his wife was pouring his glass of two-thirds benedictine and one-third euracora, which the Major contended was the on ly civilized drink with which to prepare for the after-dinner cigar. Mrs. Max passed the Major his cordi al and waited a moment before reply ing: “Why, no; it seems to me that if a person traveling east mailed a letter each day by a westward bound train, a letter would arrive here each day.” Mrs, Max answered cautiously, for while she knew that the Major pretend ed to deplore the fact that she was il logical, he really derived much com fort from his superior comprehension, and was somewhat addicted to studying out intricate propositions with which to puzzle the lady. “You think so, do you?” queried the Major, as though about to be convinced hy her, while in truth he only wanted her to commit herself more decidedly, that his victory would he more signal. “Why, yes,” Mrs. Max continued, somewhat assured, “if you mailed a letter on the first day out, it would gel here the next day; if you mailed one on the day following it would arrive here a day after the first, and the let ters, being mailed twenty-four hours apart, would, of course, continue to ar rive here a day apart. They couldn’t grow further apart on the road, could they Major?” Mrs, Max wound up this sequence of feminine logic with a triumphant ac cent . and fell sure she had posed the Major, for lie did not reply until after lighting a cigar. Then he said slowly: “Yon post a letter the first day out?” “Yes.” "That letter arrives here the day af ter you leave?” “Certainly. One day gone, one letter received.” “Exactly. W 11, the next day—a lit tle euracora, straight, please*—the next day you post another letter from the train, and— ’’ “And that arrives here the day after the first, of course, making two days out and two letters received, and so on to New York. Eh, Major?” If Mrs. Max had not been examining anew pattern of lace she had in her sleeves she might have noticed thesat i-’ied smile the Major had as he leaned back in lii- chair and said; “The sec ond dav out you would heat Ogden?” “Yes'." "W ouldn't it take as long for a letter to return to San Francisco as it had taken you to go to t )gden?” “I suppose so. ■' ID<ii the second letter would arrive here two days after you arrived at Og den, and four days aft* r you left here?” Mrs. Max looked up and said, hesi tatingly : “\\ ell. 1 don’t ,-cc how yon make that out.” "I did not make it out, Mrs. Max. I only a-ked if I was right.” “No. you are not; if yon post a lot fer on a returning train each day, I say that a letter must arrive here each day. and 1 diin’t care.” “Mrs. Max. how long does it lake to go to New York?” “Seven days, 1 suppose.” “ Then a letter a day would he seven letters.

Now, as you hail only mail'd live letters be fore the one which arrived on the twelfth day. how could a letter a day have arrived?"

Kj for I'a-ture Henry Ives, in the New York Tri bune, .says; “It has been a favorite practice with me to sow rye on every available space unoccupied by a regu lar farm crop, or as soon as such a crop is taken from the ground, except where wheat or grass was to follow instead. This 1 do to either pre-occupy the ground to prevent its growing up to weeds or to raise a green crop to be plowed under, or for pasturing, or for a crop, or for both the latter purposes. I think rye is preferable to any other grain for the uses, being the most hardy and reliable of them all. I have sown it any time from July to and through December, and had it do almost equally well; having sown in corn at the last cultivating; pastured it all the fall after the corn was taken oft, and the next May plowed under a heavy green crop to plant potatoes. Have sown in the middle of August, then pastured all the late fall and spring, then saved it for a good harvest crop. Have sown it the tirst of September, and after ground was frozen in; in winter it would fur nish the stock quite an amount of green feed. At other times I have sown rye just before the winter set in, either Novem ber or December, when it would come up very early in the spring and give a good crop. No weather or treatment or insect seems to affect it much. Have plowed a heavy growth of it un der in November and December when every inch of earth in the furrow-slice would be penetrated with the white rootlets of this hardy growing crop, and such a dense body of it as to keep the frost out, allowing it to be plowed after other ground was frozen hard. Have plowed it under in May when it was three and a half feet high, using a chain, and the hoed crop on that ground would resist the drought, as the land seemed to hold the moisture bet ter than any other. It is sometimes thought to be better, when designed for a crop, to have rye pastured rather close until, say, the loth of May, or thereabouts, after which it w ill grow not quite so tall, but even and a thick crop on the ground. On this same principle I have heard of some mowing the early growth off" before its heading, and after that ob tain a fair harvest crop, but 1 would not rcccon.rnend this on strong, rich land. Some would not sow rye on their farm, for they say they never would get rid of it, but it would come up in tiie crops for years afterward; but 1 pay no attention whatever to such complaints, for in making them such men acknowledge that they are nut masters of their profession, and if it was not rye they would let weeds, or thistles, or some other foul growth take more or less of the space and of the plant-food which would have gone to make a good clean crop for the hus bandman. In growing rye for a crop, the ground grain makes excellent feed, and the straw is often worth as much as the hay. Hones'y Its Own Reward. (■'mm the New London Telegram. Last Saturday a passenger on the steamer City of New York lost his wal let, containing over SSOO, on the trip to this city. He was not aware of his loss until lie and a friend were about to take a carriage fur the Pequot House, when he was accosted by one of the waiters, Mr. James Downey, who said: “Sir, have you lost a pocket-book?” The man hurriedly felt his pockets and ex claimed: “Yes, 1 have, do you know where it is?” “Here it is, sir,” replied Mr. Downey, handing him the well lilled wallet. “Thank you,” said the owner of the wallet to Mr. Downey. “What! Ain’t you going to give the tinder something?” asked the gentle man's friend. “Yes; I’ll give him something when on my return to New York.” “Well,” remarked his friend, "1 always supposed you were a mean man. and now I know yon are.” He was then driven to the Pequot House where he remained over Sunday and returned to New York Monday night Mr. Downey found a valuable gold breastpin on Uio boat, the property of a lady of wealth. He returned it to the lady's husband and received a cold “Thank you” as a reward for his hon esty. Last night Charles Miner, an em ploye of the t ity of New York, found a pocket-book containing about SSO, the properly of a passenger bound for Norwich. He returned it to the owner who said, “Pm much obliged to you.” During the funeral services at the Crt envido (N. J.) Evangelical church, over iat* remains of Wolfgang Sloe cel. a member of the order of Knights of Pythias, a thunderbolt struck the building, descending to the ground at the side of the church by way of the lightning-rod. The shock was territic and the entire structure was shaken *,o its foundation. A scene of con stornalion tit once ensued. There were about two hundred persons pres ent, and a simultaneous rush was made for the door, while the building resounded with the shrieks of women and children. There were a sufficient number of cool-headed persons present to intercept the crowd at the door and prevent the 10-s of life which must have eusiud had the vestibule and steps been reached. While this excitement was going on a min.her of old ladies who were present fell upon their knees and prayed aloud and earnestly. Sev eral of the knights who sat on the side where the lightning .'truck were pros trated by the shock, their swords attract ing the electricity. The minister exhort ed the people to remain quiet, saying: “It is the lightning of God, which purifies all hearts.” The excitement lasted half an hour. While thesescenes wore going on in the church another holt struck the pole of one of the coach es which was standing in the street, shattering it and prostrating the horses. The horses attached to the other coach es took fright and ran in all directions. They were finally gathered together and flio funeral proceeded. Living in Tents in Denver. From the Denver (Col.) Tribune. Although one may find a first-class quality of civilization in Denver, yet one may also look upon the primitive side of life in the Queen City of the Plains. Within ten minutes’ walk of the hand'ome and high-toned hotels one may find people with no other pro tection from the weather than a tent, and no better bed> than rudely made hunks. The number of persons who live in tents in Denver is really surpris ing—indeed, those who either from choice or necessity are following this primitive mode of existence in this city would make a good sized town, for at the lowest estimate there are 3.000 peo ple living this wild life in the suburbs of Denver. In many parts of the city, notably in the far end of West Denver, and along the drives leading to the fair grounds and Central Park, these tents are pitched in numbers and proximity that make the collection look like a village. There are also many tents in the river bottoms. That hese people will not always live in tents no one will dispute. As soon as builders shall see the necessity of erecting convenient houses that may be rented at a mode rate price, these tents will find their way to second hand shops. The num ber has not yet, however, begun to de crease. How Crickets March in Oregon. A correspondent of the Idaho States man. writing from North Powder river, Oregon, says: “A few days ago I had occasion to ride over the range on Burnt river and Willow creek, traveling over about seventy-five miles of terri tory—bunch-grass hills —and along the whole distance, from ten miles below Old s ferry, on Snake river, to Ironsides mountain, and averaging about five miles in width, the earth presented a black, moving, shrieking mass of crick ets. While those cnckets are not so destructive as the locust (grasshopper), they, nevertheless, devour gardens, grain fields, and much tender vegeta tion in their path. I saw many gar dens which they had left a wreck. They cross streams, ditches and moun tains, and seem to move in columns, but with little regularity. They have no wings, hence they depend upon their long, lever-like legs, or hoppers, for lo comotion. They are not much like the chimney-black cricket. They are fear ful cannibals, slaying and eating each other with a ravenous appetite. They have no sting or dangerous nippers, hence are not dangerous to the human family, so far as inflicting wounds. The way these crickets cross streams is amusing. When they come to a stream of water which they “think" they can cross, they climb every object along the margin, and when as high as they can ascend, they shut their eyes and give one long, dangerous and some times fatal leap into the water, shut up like a jack-knife, and float down until they come in contact with an object, then they immediately seem to wake up and make a desperate grab, and crawl upon it. If he be lucky enough to be on the right side he moves on; if not. he tries it again. Thus thousands arc drowned. The Boldest Robbery on Record. Kansas City Journal. On the last dav of the Kansas City Exposition in 187“, the James and Younger brothers committed a robbery which for boldness and startling origi nality discounted the efforts of any robbers before or since. At 5 o’clock in the afternoon, after Mr. Hall, the treasurer of the association, now of the Chicago Jockey Club, had been around to the various entrances to collect the money, six ordinary appearing men rode up to the office at the principal gate, and one of them looking through the window, said to Mr. Hall, as if from curiosity: “How much money is there in that box” To which the accommodating treas urer replied that there was in the neighborhood of $lO,OOO. I'lien said the inquisitive stranger: “Suppose Jesse James should come along here and tell you to give that up, what would you do?” “I should refuse,” said Mr. Hall, laughingly. “Well, I am Jesse James,” said the questioner, leaning half way through the window, and holding a cocked navy under the treasurer’s nose, “and I reckon you better pass that money over.” Mr. Hall thought so too and acted accordingly. The money was placed in a sack carried by one of the party, and they rode calmly down Twelfth street in full view of the populace. The cheek displayed can only be appreciated when the fact is taken into consideration that there were at least calculation 30,000 people on the ground, and men were passing in and out the gate every minute. That evening a party of men rode up in front of a newspaper office on Fourth street and called loudly by name for the editor. That gentleman came down stairs and was presented with an elegant gold watch and chain “with the compliments of Jesse Janies and command.” The gentleman who received the present is at present edit ing a paper in an interior town, and still regulates the movement of the sun by his lime-piece. The police of the city did not apprehend any of the outlaws at the time, and have contin ued to do so ever since. Coffee. The culture of coffee in Mexico is becoming a more extensive and profit able industry than is generally known. There are now many large coffee plan tations in the country, and the amount of capital and labor invested increases largely with every year. The land can be purchased for about $lO per acre, and the work required to clear and pre pare it for the eotlee plant is slight in most localities. The plants, fiom six months to a year old, are set in rows from eight to ten feet apart, and about six feet apart in the row. Coffee is of ten produced two years from the plant ing of the seed, but profitable bearing begins only when the plant is four or five years old. At the end <>f even years the field will be sufficient to re pay the owner for all previous outlay and labor, and the land docs not require replanting for rainy years. Another advantage in favor of coffee culture is that the raising of many other varieties of tropical fruit can he combined with it hy planting hctwi cn tin* rows. The coffee tree, when left alone, will grow to a height of fifteen or twenty feet hut it is usually nipped about six feet fr. m the around, thus giving more vigor to the branches and stock. The berries while growing are of a grassy green, hut when ripe turn to a bright ml. Though the plant is continuously flow ering and developing fruit, (lie actual harvest season is from November to April. The berries when gathered arc spread to dry in the sun, after which they are hulled and stored away. Cof fee. when ready for the marketis worth from 10 to 111 cents at the place where it is raised. —Rochester Democrat mol Chronicle. -*■ • Hew Khi Cloves Are Made. t'rny (N. V.) Times. In one of the large factories at Clov ersville nearly ali the stock used is im ported from France. The skins on ar riving at the factory are first put through the process .f “ shaving,” which is done with a broad chisel, and all the imperfect parts of the leathe r are cut off. The skins are then taken to the table cutting room, where thirty cutters are employed in cutting the skins into oblong pieces, after which they arc sent to the ‘‘slitting” room, where the fingers are cut and the gloves are ready for the sewing machines. Thence we follow them to the making ro< ;n where ninety steam sewing ma chines, run hy women, are kept busy stitching the seams, and twenty other women are engaged working button holes and putting on buttons. The gloves are now ready for the “laying off” room, where a number of long hollow forms, like outstretched hands, are stood upright fr rn a table. If one were in need of a good warm shake of the hand, he could he accommo dated here, for each of these hollo*, forms are filled with steam, and gives the gloves that peculiar shape they have before being worn. Another room is the “sorting room,” where the various colors and sizes are sorted and fitted for the market. In the stitching process is a peculiar sewing machine which does the beautiful over stitching of theseams. In this factory over two hundred hands are employed and about seventy five dozen pair of gloves made daily. The glove cutters average from $75 to $9O per month in wages, and the makers (women) from $3O to $4O per month. A beautiful glove is now being made called the mosquetaire, from imported Inocha skins, hut dressed in the village, which is better than any imported glove, and the day seems to t>e coming when- American gloves will be known as superior to all other makes. The skins used will cut on the average two pairs of gloves. Kill-d by Bees From the m. Lorn? Globe-IVtu< crat. Mr. John Massey, a well-to-do far mer, near Bridgeton, in St. Louis coun ty, is quite a bee fancier. Among other animals upon his well-stocked farm was a blind horse, and an excellent animal be was. barring the loss of sight. A lew days ago tbe horse was turned into a small pasture, and adjoining this was a lot containing twenty-seven stands of bees. An open gate gave the animal access to both inclosures, and his famil iarity with the premises was such the* he passed from one to the other, nip ping grass, as though possessed of two good eyes. The poor blind horse at la-t lost his bearings, stumbled in among the beehives and upset several stands. Out poured the bees from their h ney comb. in thousands, to punish the de spoiler of their sweet homes. How long they were in recognizing the horse as their foe is not known, for it was on ly learned by his groans and neighs of pain that anything unusual had hap pened. No one could do a thing to re lieve the suffering beast, for the bees were mad. Left unmolested tie bees spent their whole fury upon the horee, covering every inch of his hide from bead to foot and stinging him to death in about twenty minutes. A HEROINE. How an lon a t.trl Waveil a l*a"'zt£er Train. The Boone (Iowa) Standard says: \\ hen the wind and rain was pouring in torrents down the canyon through which the railway track from here to Moingona runs, on Wednesday night of last week, a young girl of fourteen or fifteen stood at her window at midnight near the lower end of the ravine, watching the slow forward creeping of the pilot engine sent out to explore the condition of the embankments and bridges. Suddenly, as it passed upon a well-known trestle, she saw its lights disappear, and knew there were human lives in danger. Rushing out into the storm and to the brink of the chasm, Kiltie Shelly called at the top of her voice, with the hope that some poor straggler in the turbid waters might hear her voice and be encouraged bv her cry. She was heard, and hack from the swaying tree-top. in which precarious peren the engineer had found another lease of life came an an swer to her cheer, many times repeat ed. But the streams forbade hearing the directions which were shouted to the young girl, and she was left to her own resources to effect a rescue, which, fortunately were not wanting. Alone, and guided by the flickering light of a dim lantern, she commenced her jour ney through the tall wood to Moingona, a mile away, to summon help. She crept beneath the swaying branches, her face brushed by the switching un dergrowth, wet to the waist by wading the little hollows of the hill-side, each now a running brook, losing her way at times, though every foot of the route was a known page under ordinary cir cumstances, and at :ast came out upon the long railway bridge. Here her light blew out, but she did not hesitate. Across the slippery bridge lies, fur there were uo pianks, she stepped, guided only by the ghastly flashes of lightning while the wind blew a gale and wrapped her skirts about her head and drenched her eyes with the cold spray of the storm. Beneath her were the waters whoso embrace was death. Six feet had they risen in an hour: one false step and they would close over herforever. They dashed and howled against the piers and across the ice break, clamoring for her, and licking out their foaming tongues and flecking the trembling timbers with their froth. There must have been a providence which guided little Katie Shelly's foot steps across that perilous pass ge in the awful night until the safe ground of the western embankment was reached, and shelled through the black darkness, with streaming hair, and outstretched bare arms, to the lights of tiie town, and in the ears of anxious men at the depot shunted the story of disaster and the cry for help. Two men wont down in that fatal chasm, and two widows and two families of infant children call for the lost who never return ; hut two other men and two other families, to their dying days, have cause to thank the good Lord that He made one woman with the brave heart of K.ite Shelly. The cold, business-like official report will never tell it as it is, only that — “the accident was reported by a young girl and relief was promptly dispatch ed.” And when the fatal trap in which pool Olmstead and Pat Donahue found their watery graves is again filled up and traffic once more is busy over the spot, the great company will forget the deed, or only remember it as an acci dent which brought no suit for personal damages against the company. TWO MILLS OF SPERM WHALES. Me vrn Hull tired of Them Coin" on a IMenie lo n Hie Coiinl. From the New V"rk Sun. The bark Ibis, from Pensacola, lay yesterday at the loot of Seventeenth street. North River. A Sun reporter boarded her and asked Capt. Sawyer if he had really seen whales off Pimlico Sound on his way up the coast last Sat urday. “Whales?” said the genial cap tain. “Any number of them. There must have been two miles of black backs and waterspouts.” Capt. Sawyer unrolled a time-worn chart on tlu* table in bis cabin, and, with bis dividers, followed down a num ber of pencil marks to latitude 20 t> and longitude 7 and 17 min. This brought him to a point about 80 miles off Pim lico Sound, and further northeast of Cape Hattcras. “I t was on Saturday and Sunday,” he continued, “when we encountered' these sperm whales going south or south west, as if to round Hatteras. They were going very slowly, hacks above the water, and wen* spouting all of the time. They were strolling along in groups, sunning themselves half an hour at a time, and then taking a head er and coming up to spout.” “How many were there?” “W ell, first we met two schools of about 100 each, I should say. Occa sionally they frolicked ami (lopped about heavily, in a sort of dignified and elephantine sport. More followed, and the next morning, Sunday, we saw more. Altogether there were over 700 on the picn'c. We passed within 500 feet of two big fellows, hut they seemed preoccupied and didn't notice tbe ship. I don’t think they knew we were there.” “Had you any means of capturing them?” “No, and it did seem a pity to have so much valuable sperm oil indolently swimming away from us. There were some hitr whales there, too. I said to Limerick, one of my men here: ‘Now, there’s a fellow that’s worth $J.000,” and he must have been, and there were bigger ones in the school. It would have been a harvest for a whaling ship. A million dollars in sperm whales is too good a haul to let go by, but we couldn’t do anything. Occasionally I’ve seen a sperm whale cruising along as far south as Savannah, and once in a while I’ve heard of whale ships off about there. But 1 never saw so many whales at one time before anywhere.” “Where were they going?” “For squids, probably. That’s a fa vorite food with them.” “Is any danger to he feared from them?” “No; they’re harmless. 1 think I never heard of more than one case where a whale attacked a vessel, and that’s in ancient history. Over a hund red years ago. I believe the ship Es sex was run down by a mad whale. My own experience with whales has been that they are shy, and if they upset a boat, they do it by accident in trying to get away.” Insects tin Roses. The Canada Globe gives the follow ing remedy for tbe riddance of insect on rose plants and other shrubbery; This remedy is said to be good for all plants, including cherry trees afflict ed with black appis. Into a quantity krf good strong domestic soft soap pour a quantity of crude carbolic acid, stir well together, and allow to stand for a lew hours. Two or three tablespoon fuls of the acid to a quart of soap may first be tried. Test the compound by mixing a little of it with soft water. If too much acid has been added, only particles of carbolic acid will be observ ed floating on the surface, and more soap should be added. .Make it as strong with acid as the soap will per fectly cut. The refried acid may be used when the crude is not at hand. When prepared make a moderately strong suds and app’y with syringe or sponge. In using on very delicate plants, should any f-ar be felt for the plants, they can be rinsed off after a few minutes. Not having home-made soap, I dissolved nice bar soap and used that, and applied the carbolic suds with a wisp or small broom brush as a sprinkler: One application often suffices, hut two may be made if nec essary. Another writer gi -es the following remedy for the destruction of the rose slog: ‘ This an out-door depredator appear ing on the leaves of the rose and fairly skeletonizing them. It is a light green translucent little chap, varying from one-sixteenth to nearly one inch in length. Asa remedy we have found white hellebore good—one tablespoon fal dissolved in two gallons of boiling water and applied when cool with a sprinkler or syringe, or whisked over the plants with a broom. Another mode of applying is to mix a table spoonful of the hellebore in a quart of quicklime, dampen the brashes, and sprinkle the mixture over them, as in the destruction of the currant worm. Either of the above remedies will suc cessfully destroy the slugs if applied as often as they appear What the Working Women of Ciiios arc Able to tarn From a New YorkL tier. A Times reporter who was instruct ed last Saturday to institute inquiries in proper quarters as to the wages ob tained by women in various employ ments. learns that they receive, as a rule, from 20 to 30 per cent, less than men for the same or equivalent ser vice. Good saleswomen, for example, get from $0 to $lO per week. Some few. who have served a long tune, re ceive sl2. and occasional!v a salary as high as sls is {mid. but the latter are very exceptional cases. Good female cashiers obtain on the average little more than good salesmen, but sls per week is a large stipend for a cashier, and it requires guaranteed ability, tlu best of references,and sometimes ginnl security to obtain such a position. The only employment in which as high as S2O per week is ever paid to a woman appears to he in the office of book keeper, and there the average wages is far be ow sßl*o a year. The majority of giKul book-keepers got from $lO to sl2 per week. and wo men well trained in the Inid ness think themselves fortunate if they obtain SB. At the employment bureau of the Young Women’s Christian Asso ciation, whose proteges obtain as a rule better positions and better wages than the subscribers to ordinary employ ment agencies, sls per week is stated as the maximum that a woman can hope for, exclusive of the functions of teaching and housekeeping. The su perintendent of the bureau says it is rare that a woman obtains more than sl;> per week as a teacher, and that SBOO per annum would he regarded as a very large salary. In the position of housekeeper SIOOO a year is occasionally paid loan experi enced woman, trustworthy and capable of assuming the entire management of a first-class establishment. Such in stances arc very exceptional. On piece work, in artificial flower manufacture, anil occupations approximating to the artistic, it is stated that wages as high as $lB are occasionally earned by first class hands; but inordinary industries, from $8 to sl2 per week represents the average earnings of women in occupa tions requiring some training, and from $3 to $0 is common wages in the lower industrial walks. Hints to Flax (Growers. The Minnesota Linseed Oil Company h:is issued the following letter of adviee to its patrons respecting the euttii gaud curing of flax; As the season for cutting flax ap proaches, we wish to give our friends a word of adviee and caution as to har vesting and securing the crop. First, cutting—When most of the bolls and lower part of the stalks have turned yellow, and the leaves have turned slightly brown, and the lower leaves have dropped off. it is ready to harvest. At this stage it will cut as eas ily as wheat. He careful not to cut be fore ripe. Unripe seed cannot be prop erly filled out, and must fall short in weight. Use a smooth knife in your reaper. Cut high—only low enough to get all the bolls. Second, shocking— -set it up as soon as cut, in gavels, it may be handled the same as barley, or buckwheat; but better still, bind* with a self-bind er and shock the same as wheat. This treatment makes threshing easy and pays well. Third, stacking-llax cures very fast, and in go< and dry weather may he stacked the day after cutting. Don't wait a day after it is ready, for a threshing machine or anything else, but slack, stack if you want to save your crop. Build a good, solid stack, always keeping full in the center— heads in butts out —and top out with prairie hay. Slacks must not he dis turbed for two or three weeks or more, until the flax is through the “sweat," which leaves the seed heavier and bet ter. People in (ila>s Houses, <te. Si. I.miis Kvcning ('hr.niiclr. While it may tie proper that those “living in glass houses should never throw stones,” we think it is eminently proper that those working in glass houses shoulil say a “good wind’’ f>r anything of benefit to themselves. In this connection, Mr. Isaac Correy, Man ager of Salem, N.

If you will stop all your extravagant and wrong notions in doctoring your self and families with expensive doc tors or humbug cure-alls, that do harm always, and use only nature’s simple remedies for all your ailments, yon will be wise, well and happy, and save great expense.
