Boiling Over With Love.

1t was in West Philadelphia parlor

of the weather, coming picnics, where
the best ice-cream was to be found.
what they expected to do next Fourth
of July, and then followed spell of
silence. Gently, very gently his arm
stole around her waist. He felt her

In fifteen minutes his tale had been I'M

but no reply came, not even grunt
Uncertainty was consuming him, his
hair commenced to rise, and 80 did his

She didn't say yes, but she did spring
from his side and that sofa, and 60

"Oh, my arm! Oh, my boil! O-o-o-Oh!

"Young man, what is the meaning of
this?" sternly demanded the father.
The young man kept silent.
"What is it, l say?" he Numbered.
"I'll bet he's catched her by the arm
and busted her bile, !" howled the mother,
as the blood on her daughters dress
caught her eye.
He had, but he won't do so any more,
and hereafter, even if he is boiling over
with love, he won't propose to girl

A Virginia Belle.

The i" POwhatan estate" was for two
hundred years the property of the Mayo
family, and here, as the story goes,
John Howard Payne fell madly in love,
when in Richmond, with Miss Maria
Scott), a famous Richmond belle in her
day, and remarkable for her wit and
intelligence, as well as for her extraor-
binary beauty. Poor Payne laid his
heart at her feet, but she is said to have
toyed and coquetted with it, and then to
have flung it aside. When all hope of
winning the fair prize was abandoned,
Payne went to Europe, where he re-
manned for nearly twenty years, and
where he wrote his "Home, Sweet
Home" which was first sung in his
opera of "Clare," at London. This
traditional incident in the life of Payne
revives another (and one still current in
RichmondO connected with General
Scott. 1t is said that when he first
addressed Miss Mayo, he was only q
Captain in the regular army, and his
suit was summarily dismissed. After
ward, when q Major, he renewed the
prefer of his hand, but with no better
success. The third time he wore the
epaulets of q Genera, and these prompt
" secured his acceptance. When asked
by one of her friends why she had thus
suddenly changed her mind, Miss Mayo
is said to have replied; "In my estima-
ton, there is very decided difference
between a Captain, or even a Major,
and General in the American army"

A Young Man Runs OF with His
MOther.in.L0W.

About six weeks ago, says the Kansas
City Times, young German, named
Conrad Weimer, removed to this city
from Ottawa, Kansas, and went to work
for a market gardener out on East
Eighteenth Street. He was accompa-
MED to this city by his wife, young
and good looking girl, to whom he had
been married about two years. He
made his home with his mOther-in-law
on South Charlotte Street, and here was
where the trouble commenced. The
neighbors assert that the wife was not
what a wife might have been, and that
she thought too much of a young man, a
companion of her husband. Be this
true or not, Mrs. Weimer has lost her
mother and her husband, and this is
how it happened. Last Sunday Weimer
went out to see the river, leaving his
wife and her mother at home; when he
returned he found that his wife was at
the Tivoli Garden, in the company of
the mutual friend of the family. As
she did not return until quite late at
night, there was trouble in the family,
and Mrs. Weimer spent the balance of
the night at a neighbours house, and on
Monday morning had q warrant issued
for the arrest of her husband, who paid
his fine like philosopher. On Tues
day, Weimer sold off his own and his
mother-in-law's household effects, and
the ill-assorted pair left the city the
same evening, before Mrs. Weimer had
the least suspicion of what was going to
happen. She was seeking legal aid last
night to secure the arrest of both her
mother and husband, who are supposed
to have gone to St. Joseph or Atchison.

Fred Douglass Visits His Old Master.

On Sunday, saws the Washington Star,
Marshal Douglass accompanied an ex-
cursion party of colored people to St,
Michael's, on the eastern shore of Mary
land, making, for the first time since he
left the place, a visit to the scenes of his
youth and to his former master, Capt.
Thomas Aud, now a very aged resident
of that place. On Sunday morning Mr..
Douglass called at Capt. Auld's resi-
dence, where he was received by Judge
VIM. H. Bruff, Capt. Auld's son-in-laW,
who addressed him as "Marshal Doug
lass" "No, no." expostulated the
Marshal, 81 am Marshal Douglass in
Washington; here let me be Fred Doug
lass again" The meeting between the
former master and former servant was
very affecting. Tenderly Douglass
grasped the palsied hand of Capt. Aud,
addressed him as his old master, and
manifested emotion creditable alike to
his manhood and to his heart, as he saw
how heavily time had laid his hands up-
on him. MIR. Douglass stated that In

SeSSing boards and mustaches discovered
the change of hue in their own hair.
The color gradually returned in about
three or four weeks.
DELAPLAINE, Charge d,Affaires of the
United States at Vienna, says the Sheik
III Islam has recently sent delegation
of Doctors of Law to the Cherif of Nee
ca, direct descendant of the Prophet,
for the purpose of demanding funds
from the Treasure of Islam, to be ap-
piled in the defense of Islam faith. This
treasure is formed from annual offerings
of pilgrims, which are accumulated in
the Kasbahi of Mecca. The Cherif of
Mecca receives on an average IL, OOO, 600
francs in annual offerings. One offer
tory chest was opened during the Russo
Turkish war in 1928. Several large
sums were withdrawn, but it was after
ward again closed. The second chest
was opened in 1854, during the Crime
an war, but the third has not been open-
ed since 1415. It is conjectured that
the accumulation of money in the last
named offertory chest can not be less
than 250, 000, 000f, and it is fully believed
the total amount of treasure of Islam
will exceed coo, O00, 000f, and wen
much higher sum.
