Ellen, ironing away the weeks washing
for dear life, and humming love.song.
OF course she didn't see him, though he
stood stock still for full minute, drinking
in the loveliness and the deftness OF her.
Then he walked round ter the fore-door
and pulled the bell There was some
delay in answering of the door, and then
Miss Marigold herself opened it, smiling
like summer.
Wouldn't Mr.. Barrister walk IMP So
glad ter see him" .4.f .
Mr.. Barrister went in, heart as light as a
feather, and his mind made up, l don't
doubt, ter ask Lucy Ellen ter b. his'n.
"Can l see Miss LuCy?" said he.
"Aheml" said she, coloriug and clear
ing her throat; Lucy Ellen will be in
presently, guess; she stepped out a
while ago ter make call up to Square
Tendom's I'm expecting her back any
moment"
Can't you see, the poor young mans
face at such wonderful nows the eyes big
with astonishment and painf wonder
which he believed at that fust moment,
his own ears or his own eyesY
Miss Lucy has gone out, has sheP" he
said taking up his hat and looking queer.
Eyes. Oh, don't be thinking OF going,
Mr.. Barrister; she lett word that she'd be
back in a iffy" (pushing open the
blindO, "and | was ter keep who called.
There, / do believe she's coming now no |;
but she'll be back afore long, depend ont. !"
And then she fell ter telling him big
stories about the Marshes and the Swamps,
and a pot of gold that was said ter be
buried on the place, nobody knew where,
and it didn't matter and Mr.. BarTister
jest answered "No," and "Yes," and
"Ah," without hearing a word of it all,
till Miss Marigold began for ter think
him the miserablest company in the world,
when, by.and by, the fore. door opened
and in came my lady, Lucy Ellen, flushed
and beaming, dressed in her good clothes,
with her sunshade and her violet gloves.
"Oh, Mr.. Barrister," she cried, "have
you been here longY How glad am ter
see your And then she stopped and
changed color at the strange, strange look
in her lovers eyeS-or the eyes that he'd
been her lover an hour ago-which ht d
took on a terrible sadness.
" | am going away" said he then. i
wish ter bid you good by and ter thank
you Ior-tor much pleasure and many
many hospitalities"
but you will come this way agin, and
come ter see usY" said Lucy Ellen, light
ing up, thinking be only wanted little
encouragement. I'VE 6ev not lost you
altogetherY"
NO, Miss Lucy, shall never come
this way ag'in. You heD lost me alto
gether, il that is anything and IL hev
lost more than anyone; l hev lost my
faith in womanhood" And then he took
up his hat sg'in and bowed himself out,
and they never set eyes on him agin.
And them's jest the reasons why Lucy
Ellen Marigold never got mGrried.

A London dispatch of the 2Sth says the
earthquake in the PHILIPPINE Islands on
May 1, affected in terrible manner the
small island of Caniguin, five miles from
Misamis Several shocks had previously
occurred, and on the 1st of May the level
plain near the village of Catarmin began
gradually to subside till the tops of the
houses became level with the surface of
the earth. Several persons were attracted
to the scene, when the whole plain sud
denly fell in, engulfng $50 persons. The
plain became the crater ofa volcano, 1900
feet wide, raining fire down upon the sur
rounding woods, and driving the inhabi-
rants, numbering some 10000, from
the island.
The new Spanish Ministry has resolved
to put down the insurrection in Cuba, re-

The New Loan.

WASHINGTON, July 81
records in the Treasury Department
show that up to yesterday $67 100000 of
the new funded loan have been subscribed
for This saves the Government Treasury,
in annual interest, $670,000 Should Mr.
Boutwell, expend one years interest IN
placing the loan on the market, he will
then receive a saving in interest of $671,-
600 annaully for nine years. Therefore
the statement that the Government would
sustain loss by the loan is inconsiderate
and erroneous.

d SUMNER DAY

SUNSHINE over the meadow lands,
Kissing the crimson clover, ....-
And sunshine haunting the lily cups

I And wished that tue Sun aud the Summer day
y, Night thine and last forever.
We walkedd down by the meadow path,
The broad highway foreaking,
For the quiet OF that lovely spot
Seemeu better for our love-making.
An was silent and ehe was shy,
..- Aud we walked down through the clover;
Butwe Thought it the sweetest Summer day
That ever the sun shoRe over.
We h ard the birds in the waving grass,
AS they twittered to each other
About m nests they had hi iden away
And the coo of each glad bic mother.
And we thought as we walk ed that Summer day
Through the clover blooms together,
That at last this world was 10 perfect tune,
Inthe glad bright summer weather.
1 cannot tell what sal 1 TO her,
AS We walked knee-deep In clover;
But know hat the robins merrily sang
Their sweetest Of sweet songs over.
And down In my heart loves own bird sang
A song that was gladder, sweeter,
And Its echo joine with the WORLDS sweet hymn,
Ana made tn. day completer.
And Nhen we came up the meadow path,
~ Our hearts sang over and over;
sweet, glad day for blossom and bird,
And yet know not the words she said,
Or whether she spoke at all;
But Of all sweet daye, tn Summer day
count as the best of all.

So Does the Business.
Cigars and Soda Water thrown

The Work Completed IN a First Class
Manner !

Capt. Smith, Hon. d. f. Rose and
j. L. Esterbrook, of East Saginaw,
and III. II. Weakley, of Dayton, Ohio,
visiting in this city, and putting up at
the Burrell Houre, suggested the lay
ing of a walk across Second street,
from the hotel to Whitney's drug store,
and for the sake of amusement, agreed
to lay the same for the sum of five
dollars, the city to furnish the mate
rial.
Hon. s, L. Carpenter and G. c..
Whitney pledged themselves to foot
the bill, and the bargain was immedi-
ately closed. So on Saturday after
noon, at 1 o'clock, the work was COM
menced.
Capt. Smith was chosen as architect,
and II. II. Weakley as Surveyor, and
they acquitted themselves in a manner
which proved the gentlemen under
stood their business. And we should
judge from the way in which they
handled the tools, that they we're thor
oughly versed in the sidewalk business.
In addition to the above arrange
ments, Whitney agreed to furnish the
party with cigars and soda water, and
after working while they would call
for the luxuries, and then return to
business.
The whole affair was rather an
amusing one, and was witnessed by
large number of spectators, who seem
ed to enjoy the scene.
Each man worked with earnestness,
and performed his part Of the pro-
gramme to the very letter.
About 4 o'clock the job was COM
pleted, and the scene closed, the work
having been done in a superior, work
man-like manner. No fault could be
found, and the gentlemen claimed the
reward for honest labor-the cash.
1t is said that the corner drug store
did not contain as many cigars or as
much soda water when the work was
completed as did it at the commence
ment.

ENTERTAINMENT. = Harry Filkins'
opera troupe gave two entertainments
at the Alpena House, in this city, last
Friday and Saturday evenings. The
troupe is good one, considering their
number, and those who attended were
generally satisfied. But on the last
evening, Harry had taken one glass
too many, and while performing his
great feat with butcher knives, he
threw a knife into his wife's arm, and
another in her shoulder. The good
little woman bore it bravely, and left
the stage, the wounds bleeding freely.
1t is stated that Harry had heretofore
threatened to take her life in this
manner.
