How n Young Life Went Out.

An affecting incident occurred at
the Academy of Music, lately
Among the audience was wealthy
family, one of the members of which
has for years been in delicate health,
and was born deaf and dumb. 1t
has been the custom of the family
to take their afflicted daughter with
them to the theatre, as she seemed
to enjoy the excitement and action,
although she could not hear sound.
It was Observed that she seemed
very much amused at the comicali-
ties of Mr.. Sol. Smith Russell, and
enjoyed the changes Of his facial
expression as much as any of the
audience. When Signor Taglia-
pietra came on to sing it was MOTTO
ed that a curious light came into
her eyes, and stretching out her
arm to her mother, she spelled on
her fingers, with the greatest ex-
element, the words, Mamma, ]
hear" The next piece was an or
chestral arrangement of "Trova-
tare." AS the composition pro-
ceeded the tears flowed down the
poor girls cheeks. and her excite.
ment became so great that it was
deemed prudent to leave the thea.
tire. On reaching home the eXhaus,
ton produced by the events of the
evening was such that the family
physician was summoned. AS sh,
lay on her couch she reached 70,
|, her slate and wrote: "Mother,
think Heaven must be music" Tn,
, next day in accordance with he
request, Mr.. Russell was sent for
and he kindly came and sang 70
:. the little sufferer. 1t was too late
Death had marked the child for hi
victim, and she did not even smile
The little lips are cold now, an
there is a vacant chair in the fam
y circle.-San Francisco New
:, Letter.

close to the wall, step as light as a
bird, or try to pull yourself up by
the hands, but all in vain, for if you
don't weigh as much as flea, the
moment you get your foot on a step
it will crunch and groan, crack as
though an elephant were Ginning
the boards, while the old gentleman
will call from his room: "Hi-yi,

around and keeping people awake
I'll take care of your case in the

seemed the longest Of Harcourts
life. His work was done; the road
TO freedom was open, and as soon
M darkness was once more upon
the earth, he had hid goodbye to
his prison cell, and for the first
time In two wears had breathed the
pure air of heaven.
He was no sooner free than he
ran to the nearest railroad station,
reaching it just in time to board
the train for Pointville. He had
arrived in the village before he had
heard of Edith's divorce from him,
and the startling intelligence that
she was TO be married to Dyke Bal
four that night.
Driven almost wild by this news,
he had secured the services of two
o icers, and together they had hast
ened to the house, where, as we
hive seen, they arrived just in time
10 prevent the marriage.
Clifford Harcourt was i'll with
brain fever for long time after
that memorable night, and Edith
was his constant attendant through
all. She nursed him back to life,
and then destroying the divorce pa
pers, was once more united TO him
in the holy bonds Of matrimony.
And they have lived happily and
prosperously together ever since,
and have been blessed with many
additions to their family.
Dyke Balfour died a miserable
death in prison.

Truth Stranger Than Fiction.

A remarkable occurrence, recall
ing in some of its features the
stories recounted in the Arabian
Nights, took place last week on
Wood street. A humble cottage
on that street is tenanted by n
young couple who last year made
their bridal tour to California, Or
egon and Washington Territory.
While engaged in salmon fishing
on one of the rivers, the bride
groom was so unfortunate as to
drop into its current a valuable
diamond ring belonging to his wife
The loss of the gem was of course
mourned, but after while the in
cident was forgotten, nor was it
recalled till last Thursday evening,
when the young husband returned
late at night from taking stock,
discovered that his wife had pre-
pared for supper can of salmon.
Taking it up, he looked carefully
at the label, and said, "Why, Ma
riou, this salmon was put mp at the
very place where ] lost your ring
last summer. Wouldn't it he odd
| il a salmon had swallowed it, and
been caught and canned at the
factory and put into this very can,
and we should find your ring in
Iitp His wife answered him jest
inglv. but he said: IL don't know
how to account for it, but | have
a sort of presentiment that | shall
find that ring yet in some such ro-
mantle manner" She had scarcely
said. Don't he such a goose, GINS,
when her eyes caught the glitter
of something metallic in the can,
and she fairly screamed, "Good-
ness gracious me, what's that?
Her husband who was scarcely less
excited than herself, removed the
foreign substance with fork when
what was bis surprise to discover
that it was indeed big lump OF
solder, which in soldering the can
had been permitted to fall into its
contents.-Chicago Tribune.
