The Bootblack's Story.

When a dozen n~ewsboys and bootblacks had col
lected on the ~Custom-house stairs yesterday, says
the Detroit Free Press, and when each one had
grown tired of jawbreakers and popcorn-balls,
" Little English remarked
"Sposen Jim Cocoanut tell us a story"
"SpOsen,' renal ked all the others.
We'll, gentlemen, - remarked Jim, after a few
digs at his hair, Il will tell you a true story about
a girl. Her name was marier, and she had yaller
hair, blue eyes, small feet, and she was worth 4
million dollars"
In stamps p asked Cross-Eyed Dick.
L" In clean cash, right in the savings bank an
swered jim. This girl was an orphan, with no
one to boss her around. and if she wanted to be
out till ii O'Clock at night she could. There were
piles of fellers after her to marry her, but she stuck
up her nose at the hull caboodle.'
What fur ~ anxiously inquired Fire-cracker
Tom.
What inr?'' Why, she knew they loved her
money instead Of herself. She wanted some one to
love her earnestly and like gosh. Well, one day
she was going down TO the PostOsice to see if there
was airy mail, a runaway horse came along. Marier
tainted u way and sat down in the road, and she'd
have been broke all TO pieces if it hadn't been for
a boOtblack bout my size. He pulled her into a
shooting gallery. brought her to, and then hired a
hull omnibus and took her home;
And they fell in love and were finally married"
remarked Suspender Johnson.
No, my fellow-countrymen, " sadly replied Jim
she gin him ten cents"
And is that all ~ exclaimed three or four voices.
\ she gave him, and that turned out to be
counterfeit
There was a long period of silence, and then
Cocoanut jim continued
Which is a lesson to US never to marry a girl
worth a million dollars"
And we never shall, = they solemnly replied.

The stories of mysteriously-appearing portraits
on window-panes have been revived once more
by the following from the Charlottesville (Va.)
Chronicle Of a late date " Within the last two
weeks a singular discovery has been made at the
house of Jesse Garth for many years deceased.
1t is said that a distinct and accurate likeness Of
Mrs. Garth, who has been dead for twenty years,
can be seen on a pane of glass in the upper sash
of one of the windows, presenting very much
the appearance of a photograph negative. The
discovery is said to have been made by a woman
who was washing clothes in the yard, who ina
gined some one was watching her through the
window, and went inside TO see who it was. We
gather these facts from DIR. Brown who remembers
that about twenty years ago Mr.. Garth told him
that his wife, while standing at that window,
was stunned by a sudden fash of lightning, and
the doctors theory is that the outline of her
features were photographed on the w~indow-pane
at that time. The youngest daughter of Mr..
Garth and others who were well acquainted with
Mrs. Garth, have seen the picture and pronounce
il a striking likeness. II is said to be more dis
tinct about 9 O'Clock in the morning and 3 in the
afternoon than at any other time of the day"

cerely dsire avoid any rupture, and are anxious to
maintain peace and establish relations with Spain
Q permanent basis OF friendship.
From these expressions on the part OF Mr.. Fish, as
well as from statements made in the circular note of
Nov g. il would seem that there can be no question
of the determination Of the President to intervene
in Cuban affairs, provided the Spanish Government
does not at early day fulfill its promises to our
Government.
Since the dispatch of Nov. was presented to the
Spanish Government Mr.. Gushing has informed the
State Department that the Spanish Minister of For
eign Affairs had carefully read the circular note, adj
mitted grievances, and opposed in principle
to the sequcstration of property Of foreigners; he
condemned the delays Of redress, and promised To
take up and promptly settle each ease, and to re-
all cause of complaint in regard to the treaty.
At the same time, promises equally strong had pre-
vOusly been made, only to be broken, and with the
single exception of the appointment of Jovelar to
be Captain-GeDeral of Cuba. which IL considered
good sign there to be little better reason
TO hope that Spain will be able TO fulfill any better
the latest promises which she has made.
