; THE "BELLEs OF THE KITCHEN" IN REAL
LIFE.-A family living in Lancaster street
went to New York, leaving the servants in
charge OF the house. Surprising that the
visit was to be prolonged till after New
Years, the bellies of the Kitchen" deter
mined to improve their opportunity and
give select party. Invitations were issued
for Thursday night, and that evening as
jolly crowd collected as was to be found
in the whole city. The s'spread" was ample,
the luxurious belongings were well enjoy
ed, and call went merry as marriage
bell" Suddenly sharp ring at the door
bell startled those who heard it. Atelegram
was handed in announcing that "the family
would arrive within an hour" All was
CONSERVATION. The "guests" were made
aware Of the situation, and, leaving the
table but partly cleared OF its good things,
donned their outer garments and departed.
The "hostesses y began the almost impos-
siblc task OF putting things to rights in the
short time allowed them, but did their best,
and at the expiration of the hour sonethn g
like order reigned once more. But the
family came not, and haven't come yet.
The telegram was heartless forgery, COM
mitted by some envious creature who didn't
get an inyitation.-Al6aayI Times.

A RoMANcE DEVELOPED BIZ REVIVAL
A very interesting religious revival has been
in progress at Upper Sandusky. Ohio, for
,6ye weeks past, and has resulted in many
souls being snatched, as it were, like
brands from the burning. Among the
numerous converts is a young lady whose
conversion has been attended with scnsa-
ton which has produced little earthquake
in society circles in the town above named.
1t seems that the greater portion OF the
church-goipg population were gathered to
witness the interesting ceremony OF the
admission Of several new members into
one OF the churches. These customary open
ing services had been proceeded with,
and the important moment had arrived.
| The young believers stepped forward. All
eyes were upon them, and the minister was
about TO proceed, when the young lady
advanced and said that, before uniting
with the church, she had an explanation to
make-a secret to reveal. She did not be-
lieYe she could consistently continue de-
ception that she had been practicing upon
those around her for a long time past and
she desired her confession to be as public as
her offence had been. The fact was that
she-the handsome little blonde, the gene
raj favorite in society-instead OF being the
innocent, artless, guileless, fancy-free, SIN
gle-hearted creature they had supposed,
was a-married woman!
A sensation ensued seldom seen in the
sacred precincts of the sanctuary. The hith-
erto unsuspecting husband stepped to the
side OF the blushing and weeping girl and
confessed that it was true. They asked for
giveness, and were received into the church.
They are both respectfully connected, espe-
cially the lady, and there was no stern parent
| in the case. 1t appears that the parties hap
pened to be in Chicago at the same time last
June, and were secretly married. They
separated-the new wife. On He. way home,
stopping to visit some young friends on
Lafayette street, in this city, who will, no
doubt, be somewhat surprised to learn Of
their friends clandestine marriage. The
husbands business frequently required his
presence at Logansport and Chicago, but it
is not known that any letters passed be-
tween them. The lady's parents forgaye
and blessed them, gave them good send
off, and the happy couple passed through
the city yesterday on their way to begin
married life in their new home in Chicago.
