THERE. is a capital story from the
pen of Mark Twain, intended, per-

One day when I and my brother
went into the woods, he shot chick

we're lollihg in the JehAde under 4 tree,
he pulled the tails out of the birds,
and then fooling round and talking,
he finally built the crow'sta into the
chicken-hawk's transon. When we
saw what neat job it was, we thought
we would keep it. When we got
home we were late to supper, and we
just dropped it on the porch and
fnshedine I'VE had o. kind of sneak
ing hope that the old man and our
uncle would get Bit With it, anyway
because they were always pottering
over geology, or natural history, or
something they did not know any
thing about. While werwere. at sup

birds, and we heard them discussing
it, and talking all kinds of astonish-
ment. Directly the old man came in,

And he walked out, and we heard
him and uncle conclude that they
would label it with their own names
and send it to Professor Hagenbaum,
at Albany. Pretty soon, though the
old man took hold of the tail and
pulled it out, and we Heard both of
them swear little.
When we came out the bird was
lying on one side of the fence, and the
tail on the other. We did not dare to
laugh, or to let ON about overwhelming
their talk either. % essri1iis'D 6 lad
But about month after this, there
came along one of the rarest speci-
mems of a boy you ever saw, and
wanted to stay with us. He was all
rags and tatters, and tired out with
running away from his master some
where. His shirt was hanging at half

A New York correspondent of the
Chicago Republican writing of Parepa
Rosa, says: g
Parepa won new laurels at the fes-
tival. Every time l hear her am i'm
pressed more and more with her SUI
perbness asa singer, 4 doubt if we
ever had in this country voice at
once SO rich and fresh, so powerful
and sweetas Parepa's. She is always
equal to the occasion, and inspired.
She is particularly a sunny and unas-
suming woman, and as candid and as
ingenious as a child. -
cannot well believe the story told
about the manner of her engagement
with her diminutive husband, who,
no one would suppose, could muster
up courage to propose to her.
According to the story, Parepa and
Carl Rosa were going on the cars 10
New Haven TO take part. in, a concert.
The yiolinisti was in a detected mood,
and being asked: the cause, told the
charming singef that he had i'll fortune
in this country that he was, constant
ly losing friends, whatever he might
dot retain them. iso4t) 5dT
"Oh, don't grieye; cheer up, my
little man." said ,Parepa. "If you
have lost friends you can find others.
I'll be your friend, if you will let
"Oh, shall be delighted. Will
you indeed be my friend ?" y
"Most certainly, and 1 will be your
wife, too, if you wish it." ai
At this juncture the small musician
who was entirely overcome with emo
ton, seized Parepa's plump hand, car
fled It to HIS lips, and the moment af-
ter disappeared in the folds of her
agitated wardrobe.
They were married a few days after
apd they have been one of the happi-
eestof harfiedcOup1es. 81 a
ToNING UP.-I don't wonder women
grow narrow and petty. Suppose
men had to set their brains down to
the key of children from six to sixteen
years of age, day in and day out, and
try to keep serene and sweet tempered
all the time. l fancy they would be
like very tall man in a very short
bed, inclined to- stretch himself to his
full length, no matter, what gave way.
