A Romantic story.

Into the arid atmosphere Of politics
and bread-and-butter m t N s
comes a bit Of romance Of melting
sweetness. OF such is the story Of
two lovers and q romorseless father,
which, as It has just been told BY
Bostonian, must of course be true.
Ten years ago q beautiful young Bos-
ton girl was sent to the Vermont hills
to arrest, If possible, the indications
of approaching consumption. She
recovered her health, and meantime
inflicted . cureless wound upon the
heart Of an Intelligent aud well-edu-
Gated young farmcr's son, . Unlike
Lady We're, do Vsrc, she did not scoru
his timid affection. but returned II
heartily, referring him to hor father
That traditionaily unromantic per-
souage wouldn't hear Of II, "Never.r
nover-r, shall q base mechanic we'd my
child p =. The Young man retired,
went Yves. and made large fortune
aud the young woman married the
man presented by her father. She
wont to live 10 France her husband
died in two years, aod, her parents
also dying. she remained abroad. The
memory Of her first romance faded
with her as with its object, who though
unmarried, was too busy ia making
money for tender thoughts. Last
year bis business took him to Europe,
and ono night found him on little
steamer plying between Marseilles
and Leghorn. A storm came up. and
a lady, who had risen from her sea,
on deck to 60 below. was thrown
overheard by. sudden lurch Of the
vessel. The 'base mechanic" jumped
after, aud In the dark the steamer
drif:ed away from them, but he seized
the sinking lady, and both clutched Q
ptovidential plank aud Aotsd unit
they were picked up BY another ycs
Ssl. During the night, 10 che colo
and tho darkness, they discovered i
each other the lovod and lost OF earl
Ter years. The old feeling caG
back in that fearful hour. and on thsi
arrival at Malta they we're married.

A NIGHT WITH A ROBBER
Thrilling Adventure OF Ma
dame Pauline LuCca.

For cool resolution, the following
incident, related to me by my friend,
cannot well be surpassed:
Madame Pauline Lucca usually re-
sides in the Victoria Strasse, Berlin.
Last spring, however, she occupied,
temporarily, ut some distance outside
the city, q garten house, or country
house, consisting of only spacious,
rambling basement story, surround
ed by veranda.
One night, pbout ten o'clock. she
was sitting there in her bed room.
Her chair was placed before her toll
ct table, which was lighted by a wax
taper on each side Of the glass. The
two tapers were not sufficient to illu-
inmate the room very brilliantly, and
the further end lay buried in a sort
of semi-obscurity. Madame Lucca
was busy reading some letters con-
cerning engagements when suddenly
she imagined she heard o noise. She
looked around, but seeing nothing,
concluded she had made q mistake,
and resumed the perusal of the let
ters. She had forgotten all about the
noise when she heard it again. This
time instead Of looking around, she
happened, without moving her head,
merely to raise her eyes to the glass.
She beheld reflected in it the face oi
o man peering cautiously from out a
cupboard behind her. At first she
iancied she was dreaming. She qui.
city looked again. No, it was nc
dream. There was the man, whom
she now recognized as having been
formerly in her service, and had been
discharged for bad behavior. She
had also suspected him Of purloining
several objects, which she had missed
from time to time, but, not being Ger.
tain on this point, she had kept hei
suspicious to herself. Yes, there he
was there could be no mistake about
the matter. Madame Lucca's first
impulse was to start up and give tho
alarm. But there was not another
habitation within q mile or two, hnd
she recollected that the only person
beside herself in the house was hel
maid, who though o very good girl
and extremely attached to her mis-
tress, was by no means celebratet
for her nerve. The other servants
including the gardener, and coach
man, had been granted permission Il
attend q friends wedding, some mile
of, and were not TO return till tn,
next day. What was TO be done
All at once she remembered that
revolver belonging to her husband
the Baron Won Rhaden, out to be ly
ing ON Q shelf in the dining room
lbut she was not sure. III il wa
there, md I could only get il, " sh
Thought, II should not mind."
While she was rejecting o knocl
