out where the water was ten or ff-

arc steadily decreasing. The fact is
the supply Of currency in tho coun-

the people. This has boon repeated

A would. be Gay LOthariO tn
Ken In and Done For.

On Sunday last young man board
, ing at the Empire House for few
days observed beautiful young LADY
with whose gentle graces he wa!
greatly enamored, and upon inquiry
he asccrtaincd that she desired te
ride out into the country four or five
miles that day. lIc Immediately OK
pressed willingncss-indecd an anx
iety-to be her escort. A brief con-
sultation carried on by professe d
friend, announced that the young lady
would permit the attention Of tho en-
amorcd young man for the delicate
duty.
Then came hurrying to and fro,
first to this livery stable, then to
that. to procure tho needed convey
ancc, only to learn that they had all
been previously engaged. Finally a
kind and considcratc friend volun-
tccrel the use Of horse, and Josh
DeNoyellcs with that noble gcnerosi-
ty that has ever characterized him as
friend to those in need of one, gave
the use of buggy and harness.
During the progress Of these inter-
rupting prcliminarics the whilom
young lady was arranging her toilet
in the most fascina ting and hcwitch-
ing manner. Finally all things were
in readiness, and arraycd in robes
more dazzling that Solomon iu all his
glory, the young Lothario was in
troduced to Madame.
Time passed or. After a pleasant
ride of four or five miles with tue
brilliant scenery of our prairies dyed
in the gorgeous hucs of Autumn, and
after an Infinite variety Of lackadasi-
al nonsense having been expended,
thc parties slowly rcturncdto Crcsco.
Besccchingly the gay young buck be-
sought to clasp the unglovcd hand Of
the fair dam-scN within his own. The
boon was granted. What a thrill
shot through his frame as ho gazcd
upon the dclicately tapcred hand,
showing that active and earnest strug-
CLOS with labor had left upon those
fingers TIC traces of its beauty cffac-
ing influence. Another look--and
