According to the following report it
will appear that the Natchcz, in her run
from New Orleans to Cairo, has distin-
guished herself by beating the time made
on the great Lee-N atchez race considera-
bly,. She left New Orleans Saturday at
$50 pm. with over loo people, made 20
business landings and came to Cairo in
days, 4 hours and ~ minutes. At the
time Of her departure, and during the
first night out terrible storm prevailed
which retarded her progress. At c land

And so they wore.

And SO they were.
Good Mr.. Parton walks slowly down
with the sweet lady, Tor she has every
reason to tremble; she believes she is
Lauretta's mamma; for she has been tell
inc her friend how her husband was kill
ed in mob one dreadful day, because he
was a great politician, and when they
burned his house they took her and threw
her into prison, where she remained
whole year, and only made her escape
when, during terrible troubles in Italy.
the prison doors were unbarred to all.
She had sought frantically for her child,
but in vain; and believing that Lauretta
and her nurse were crushed in the same
mob that killed her husband, she came
to America to try and earn her livelihood
among hospitable strangers by her fine
musical education and uncommon voice.
Madam Victor believes that Lauretta is
her child, because their stories are so
strangely alike. Five years have passed
since she had left Italy, but she knows
her eyes will not deceive her. Her baby's
features are indelibly engraven upon her
heart Her kind friend supports her uD
the five flights OF stairs, and then she stops
to take breath and nerve herself for either
intense happiness orheavy disappointment.
They were about to enter the room
when little voice greets her singing,
with wonderful power and expression,
an Italian melody which the lady herself
used to sing in her own sunny land. She
stops and grasps the arm of her friend
ooh, wait" she whispers; ''let me try"
and with great effort, she continues and
completes the unfinished strain in Il voice
that angels might not exceed.
He opens the door.
Lauretta stands in the center of the
room, alone, pale, and agitated; her
great eyes dilated with emotion long re-
pressed in her heart which vibrates on
her memory like 4 glimpse Of heaven.
Madam Victor SINKS upon chair and
gazes long and earnestly upon the mo-
tionless figure; then she suddenly stretch
es out her arms and whispers Come
here"
Laurctta slowly advances; and when
she is close to the beautiful lady she
nes.ies her head upon her bosom and
draws Il long deep sigh. Tell me your
whole name, sweet one"
'Lauretta Victor"
The lady pressed the little form still
closer. sDarling, am your mother
Il know it, signs the child.
+ "You know it, my angelo"
Eyes; have seen you in my dreams
and always called you mother; and when
You sang Just now it brought it all back"
Good Mr.. Parton went to the window
and wiped his eyes, =
Once again we see him sitting in his
easy chair before the bright coal fire. BY
his side sits q beautiful young lady; one
hand lies in his and the other is tenderly
stroking his hair; but her eyes rest upon
a little fairy who sits at the piano, silent
ly dreaming over some Of Hande's
music, which her papa" has brought
home to her.
And so they were married.
The lady is his wife.
The fairy his Casta Diua.

A notable meeting took place at Ann
Arbor, Michigan, a week or two ago,
when, for the first time, Miss Anna Dick
inson and Miss Lillian S. Edgarton laid
eyes upon each other. They were coun-
terparts long sundered, the former being,
as all the world knows, pretty, petu-
liant, fiery, little brunette, and the latter
an imperial blonde, massive Alruna
maiden, who might have sung to the
evolves of the Goths' in search of As
gard. Miss Dickinson is an untlinching
advocate of woman's right to vote, but
Miss Edgarton thinks women should not
be enfranchised. For long time they
had vainly yearned for each other, but,
at last, they met at hotel in Ann Arbor,
and each exclaiming "'tis she," they
rushed like torrents into each others
arms, or, rather, the superb blonde open
ed her arms and the small brunette nestled
within them, purring like a little brown
kitten. Henceforth they would be sisters,
and the last that was seen of them was u
tableau of the brunette sitting on the
blondes knee, while both slipped from
the same tumbler q liquid which the in
genious hotel clerk called hot lemonade

Ny friend, here's a secret
By which you may thrive;
| am fifty years old,
And my wiic's forty-tive-
\ queen among beauties,
The wcdcling-gue>ts said,
When we Went to the church
With the priest. and We're wed.
That's thirty long years past;
And can avow,
She was no more a beauty
To me, then, than now!
For never the scath of Il
nctulant troWn
Has ploughcd with its furrows
Her Young roses down.
And still, like girl, when
Her praises | speak,
Her heart fairly bushes
Itself through her check.
Her smile is more tender
For being less bright;
And the little bit powder
That makes her hair white.
And all the soft patience
That shows through her face.
In my eyes, are only
Like grace upon grace.
For still we are lovers.
As am alive,
Though |, sir, am fifty,
And shes forty-tiye,
And here's half the secret
meant to unfold,
She don't know, my friend,
Not the least, how to scoldl
Nor does she get pettish,
And >ulk to a pout,
So. since we fell in love.
We never fell out'
And here's the full secret
That safes lis from strife:
| kept her a sweetheart,
In making her wife f!
And if Won but wed on
My pattern, you'll thrive,
