THE LADY's REPgNTANCE.-In
the life Of DIR. Railles, just published,
the following story was told in con-
nection with a preaching journey in
1914. On our way from Wem to
Hawkestone we passed a house, Of
which Mr.. Lee told me the following
occurrences: "A young lady, the
daughter of the owner of the house,
was addressed by a man who, though
agreeable to her, was disliked by her
father. OF course he would not
consent to their union, and she de-
tcrmined to elope. The night was
fixed, the hour came, he placed the
ladder to the window, and in few
minutes she was in his arms. They
mounted double horse, and soon
we're at some distance from the house

The Mechanics Magazine, in an arti-

powder and nitro-glycerine, states that
gunpowder is produced cheaper, but so
much time and labor are saved by using
the latter in mining operations, that in
practice its economyis, really superior
to that of gunpowder That may be,
but what is economy of money to econo-

may one day supersede gunpowder for
blasting purposes, but in the mean time

Wigfall's Escape.

The Richmond Enquirer, in an article
describing the straits to which various
Confederate Congressman were put in
endeavoring to escape after the capture
of Richmond, tells how Wigfall got off.
1t says tNH
Several of the members passed them
selves as paroled soldiers, and were
transported as such without detection,
on government steamers, to points near
their homes OF these were Mr.. Per
kins and Mr.. Wigfall The latter, in q
disguise, precluded all suspicion, entered
freely into conversation with the sol
diers of the guard, and in the course of
conversation asked what they would do
with old Wigfall if they were 10 catch
him. "Oh, we would hang him certain, :"
was the reply. And you would serve
him right replied Wigfall I'll should

The double entendre was not suspected
and its wit was therefore lost, but it is
worth producing now.

SCARCITY OF LkBORERS.

The Boston Traveller. complains that
there is a great scarcity Of help in some
Of the manufacturing districts Of New

great measure by the calling away of
thousands of abls-bodied men to join the
various Fenian expeditions This, ad-
ded to the drain, caused by the constant
Aow of emigration to the West, compels
the manufacturers to raise their wages
This scarcity, however, may ultimately
cease, owing to the Fenian failures and
