A Darkened1Life.

In Nashua, N. H.. resides young
girl, whose pitiful lot excites the deep
est sympathy, yet for whom sympathy.
can do but little in alienation Of the
sad misfortune which has darkened her
life. When child she was terribly
scalded about the head and face and.
although she survived her injuries, she
was henceforth disfigured for life, and
the rosy face Of childhood was changed
to mask-a travesty on the human
countenance-absolutely frightful in it's
hideousness. In Lowell, Mass, where
she once lived, so great was the horror
excited by her appearance that she was
forbidden by the authorities to show her.
self on the streets. At Nashua she ven-
tured out the other day, and several
ladies tainted at sight Of her, and a call
is now made upon the authorities of
that place to forbid her appearance on
the streets. What mournful fate is
hers-to live through the terrible suf-
fering only to endure henceforth q
keener mental anguish in the knowledge
that she is thing of horror, to be ab-
horred and Stunned by human kind,
with no hope in the future except the
grave, which shall hide her dcformities
from the gaze of her fellow beings.

young boys infatuation. He has
Old head on young shoulders. He writes
to me every other day, and if you will
call around to my clearinghouse will
show you his letters, which will go far
to remove the credulity with which you
look upon this affair."
She would then sit silent for while,
occasionally speaking in marked terms
OF her husband (which she still calls
him). After telling the above, and
seeing the look of interest and
astonishment (the latter, it
must be confessed, was at her bearing
and language) with which it was re-
celved, she said interrogatively ''quite a
romance, isl not Yes, it is ro-
nance. We met so singularly. Twill
never forget that night. He was intro
duced to me by Mr.. Stoddard one
night at the theatre, and be walked
home with me. On the way he was
speaking about some watering place, and
asked me if | would not like to go there
with him and visit his sister, we'll
known married lady of Washington. I
thought he was insulting me, and gave
him reply accordingly, which brought
our conversation to close,
after he had begged my pardon, and
said he was in earnest. We have
often laughed about it since. He has a
brother older than himself; but I never
met him, although / have seen him at
the theatre several times. Neither did
| ever see any Of his family. excepting
his father, on the one time, Just after
we were married. His father never sent
any word to me, but Pressly always
told me everything that occurred. I
did not expect to come here when left
Washington, but was going to New Or
leans. | am going back to Washington
in four weeks, as we have
grand ballet there then.
l will work on in my profess
sion until he is Of age. I never re-
ceived cent from him. but have made
my own living. It will hurt him when
he gets my letter telling him am here
at the theatre. l have not lost a night
since we were married. Very few of
these people you see about you know
my story" she said sadly as she looked
around at the actors and actresses.
Thanking her for her kindness the re-
porter left her standing among the gay
men and women. looking like one who
was lost in the throng Of apparently
careless people.

met the bride near the entrance of the
sanctuary, where he received her from
her father. The entire party then ap-
approached the altar railing, and after
kneeling short time, took the positions
assigned them.
AS the procession marched down the
aisle, Mendelsshon's wedding march
was rendered upon the organ.
Preceding the bridal party. upon its
entering the church, was Mrs. General
Sherman with her brother, Judge P. B..

man, Judge BARLEY and Col. Moulton,
All being in readiness, the Most Rev.
Archbishop entered the sanctuary
from the sacristy and proceeded with
the marriage ceremonies, the bride and
groom receiving the holy communion.
At conclusion of the mass a special
blessing was given and the ceremony
ended.
The bride wore dress of white silk,
trimmed with white satin tul.e and or
ange blossoms and pearl jewelry. The
bridemaids wore dresses Of white silk,
trimmed with white illusion, each al
ternate bridesmaid having her dress
also trimmed with pink and blue flow
ers; those wearing pink passing to the
left and those white passing to the
right as they entered the sanctuary.
The groom and groomsmen, with the
