A Wife at Auction.

About a week ago a widow named
Gathner. living in the Sixth Ward, met
n male acquaintance on Gratiot street,
and complained to him that she was
out of tlour and wood, and almost dis
couraged. He told her she ought to
marry again, and she said she couldn't
find q husband.
I'm sell you at auction he con-
tinued. and we'll put In n proviso that
the highest bidder shall court you for
n week In order that you may know
him.
The woman laughingly consented,
the, man mounted a box and began cry
ing ont. A crowd assembled and he
stated the facts In the case, saying that
he had known her for years. Knew her
to DO Industrious and of good character,
ard then he opened the sale. Bidding
was lively, and everybody In great
humor.
In the crowd was an old bachelor
named Peter ID. Joslyn, boarding on
Maple street, and he was the only one
who took it rs a real fact. He jumped
the bidding from 43 cents to s., and
then raised It TO IS. The auctionesr
cried last CALI on that figure, and the
widow was knocked down.
Joslyn handed her the money, agreed
to the proviso, and then treated the
whole crowd, non Of whom had n
thought that q marriage would take
place.
One did, however, take place yester.
day morning, after the terms OF the
proviso had been faithfully carried out.
Aud while 1t Is quite certain that JOS
Ign has found a good helpmeet, the
br~idegroom's friends say that he is so
ber, steady, good-tempered and well

with the boat, but a few well-aimed
shots from the steamer soon dis
patched them. The surgeon from
the steamer attended to our wounds,
as all of us, with the exception of
the Captain, were wounded, and
ten dead, among the latter the first
mate.
TEN PIRATES HANGED TOGETHER.
After we had rested a little, we
threw the dead bodies of the pirates
overheard (about tifty)! The pris-
oners were all condemned by a
Court-martial to be hanged, and
the crew of the steamer made the
necessary preparations to carry out
the sentence. Ropes were attached
to the yards of the steamer and our
ship, the nooses were put around
the necks Of the prisoners-one pull,
and ten bodies were hanging high
in the air. Our Captain engaged
twelve sailors from the steamer, as
we were all disabled, and at about
6 O'Clock, a breeze springing up, we
left the battlefield behind us.
BURYING THE DEAD.
The steamer kept near us during
the first night, and left us only after
providing us with arms and ammu-
milton and kindly gave up her
surgeon to us. The next morning
we buried our dead, viz, the first
mate, the first carpenter. seven sail
ors and one boy. | remained disa-
bled for eight weeks, as the spear
had gone clean through my shoul-
der. Eight of the bodies of our
comrades were without heads, which
some Of the pirates had most likely
taken with them when they jumped
overheard. However, they can
hardly have got tar with thel.., as
the boats Of the steamer and also
some sharks followed the swimmers
and finished them off rapidly. The
bodies Of the pirates were horrid
to look at, as most OF them had
theirskullS broken.

markably fine row Of teeth.

asked the contractor.
"l'm willin', but | oss't git any

he shed a few tears.

too much SO to think of plan that
would be likely to cure the unfor-
tunate hatit into which his daugh-
ter had fallen. sThe plan was dis
cussed with the young lady's moth
er and adopted. The time for tea
had arrived, and when all were
fairly seated at the table Mrs. Hall
said, "My dear sir, will you have
some tea?''
"ln half jify, madam"
Nellie looked up, but her father
took no notice.
"Really this cake is quite stun
ning," went Oh the doctor, as solemn
as Judge. Just then his napkin
fell to the floor. "Gracious, Pm
con-dumbGounded," calculated the
doctor, getting it a little wrong.
Nellie gazed at her father in perfect
amszement.
"My dear, this sauce is staving.
Where did you buy it"
81 made it," said his wife, cody.
"Oh, we'll, it's all the same in
German
Nellie dropped her knife and
fork.
"You must give me some money
to give the butcher tomorrow
morning, said Mrs. Hall.
"You'll have to spell ability
FIRST" growled the doctor, savagely.
Then suddenly taking out his
handkerchief, he gave his nose a
tremendous blow. "There," said
he shows that for hlgh?"
81 know how tits myself" meekly
replied his wife. This capped the
climax. The knowledge that her
father must have heard the after
noon conversation, was too much
for Nellie. Sho burst into tears
and left the room. The sage doc
tor nodded wisely to his wife, and,
when she got out Of hearing, ex-
claimed: "There wife, | guess we
shall hear no more slang phrases
from her,"
The doctor was right, for Nellie
was cured.
