LOVE IN A BOX.

The intelligence of a novel elopoment has
just reached Us from New Windsor, Mary
land. A young and enterprising mechanic
of that place fell desperately in love, and
resolved to marx q very handsome but
young daughter Of asyealthy merchant re-
siding in the same place. Everything
was looking immensely prosperous for tbs
young couple, when the girls father dis
covered she had recently become very
fond of going ont o. nights. and also
the cause. He Immediately made A visit
to one of his single sisters, ACCOMPANIED by
his decidedly unwilling daughter, and ne
gotiations were entered into for the auus to
take charge of the dear little creature uutl
her passion had subsidized. Having the
highest confidence In his sisters ability to
perform the task satisfactorily, be returne
home, leaving the girl, and looking as
though quite load had teen removed from
his mind. The girl being fully determined
TO marry or die, made good her escape the
first night of her bondage, returned to her
lovers home, found him walking the floor OF
his shop, and in short time after their happy
greeting was over the young man might
have been seen burr ying toward bis fathers
stable. Ina couple of minutes horse and
spring wagon was drawn up TO the shop
door, aud as dAylight--the sworn foe to
elopers-was making its appearance, large
box was thrown hastily into the wagon,
full of small mir holes, prepared expressly
for the occasion, and the girl crawled into
that, was hauled some twenty miles over a
rough pike to another town, and there was
married.

THE ORIGIN OF "HAiL COLUMBIA

THE ORIGIN OF 'sHA1L COLUMBIA
In the .'Reco,lections of Washington,
just published, occurs The following anec-
dote:
The song of "Hail Columbia" adapted
IL measure to the presidents March" was
written by Joseph Hopkinson of Philadel-
phia, in 1898. At that time war with France
was expected, and patriotic feeling per-
vaded the community. Mr.. Fox, a young
singer and actor, called upon Hopkinson
one morning and said: "To morrow even
ing is appointed fer my benefit
at the theatre. Not a single box has been
taken and fear there will be thin house.
II you will write me some patriotic verses
to the tune of the presidents March" |
feel suie OF q full house. Several about the
theatre have attempted 1t, but they have
come 10 the conclusion that it cannot De
done; yet think you may succeed" Mr..
Hopkinson retired TO his study, wrote the
first verse and chorus, and submitted them
to Mr.. Fox, who sang them to harpsi-
chord accompaniment. Ire tune and the
words harmonized. The song was
soon finished, and that evening the
young actor received it. The
next morning the placards announced that
Mr.Fox would give new patriotic song.
The house was crowded-the song was
sung-the audience delighted. Eight times
it was called for and repeated, and when
sung the ninth time, the whole audience
stood up and joined in the chorus. Night
after night, "Hsil Columbia" was applauded
in the theater, and in a few days was the
universal song Of the boys in the sire is.
Such was the origin of our national song,

Boys aud girls, if you wish to astonish
any members of the family or any coming
guests by some day allowing them to dis
cover their iriatils neatly printed on pear,
peach or apple, as it hangs on its branch,
this is the way to carry out your plan !:
Just before the fruit ripens, cut the desired
letters from a sheet of thin, tough paper;
then paste them on the side of the fruit
most exposed to the sur, and when, in
course Of time you remove the paper from
the ripe surface, you will, find the letter dis
tinctly marked upon it.

THE wAYIrIs DONE INsCoTLaND

The love-making of young ladies in Scot
land is tinged With certain financial prosy
element which will not commend itself
to enthusiasts and rhapsodis,s A fair
Scottish lady of Edinburgh for some
years allowed herself 10 be court ID by a
susceptible shoemaker, who promised her
marriage, and went so far as to
make her wedding shoes with his
own hands. But, notwithstanding this at
tention, he fell in love with some one else,
and what is worse he married her, leaving
the Scottish lady forgotten and forlorn.
But the Tilted one was equal to the occasion.
She had an eye to the main chance, and
remembered that she had presented the
faithless shoemaker with shirts, crsvats,
butter, eggs, cheese and socks. Her gifts,
like her love-making, always took
a practical turn, as is eventually
proved, for the Scottish lady sued
the shoemaker in the Sheriff's Small Debt
Court of Edinburgh for nearly eight pounds,
the value of the practical presents. This
curious trial ended in a verdict for the
plaintiff, aud the shoemaker was compelled
to pay five pounds for shirts and crsvats
worn out, and eggs and butter long since
eaten. The shoemaker is to be pitied, but
not for the rejection of such CHARMING and
eligible young woman.
