My sister'I be down in a minute, and says
you're to wait, if yon please,
And says might stay till she came, If I'd pom
ise her never 10 tease,
Nor speak till you spoke to me first. But tiats
nonsense, for how would you know
What she told me to say, if l didn't? Don't on
really and truly think so !?
And then you'd feel strange here alone. And
you wouldn't know Just where to sit;
For that chair isn't strong on its legs. and w
never use it q bit.
We keep it to match with the sofa. But Jacl
says it would be like you
To flop yourself right down upon it and knock
out the very last screw.
"Sposc you try' won't tell. You're afraid TO.
o! you're afraid they would think it was
mean.
Well, then, there's the album-that's pretty, if
you're sure that your fingers are clean.
For sister says sometimes ! daub it; but she
only says that when she's cross.
There's her picture. You know it? It's like
her; but she aint as good looking of course.
This is me. It's the best of 'em all. Now tell
me, you'd never have thought
That once | was little as that? It's the only one
that could be bought
For that was the message to pa from the photo
graph man where | sat
That he wouldn't print off any more till he first
got his money for that.
| what? Maybe you're tired Of waitins Why,
often she's longer than this:
| There's all her back hair 10 do up and III her
| front curls to friz.
| But its nice to be sitting here talking Pike
grown people, just you ana me.
| Do you think you'l be coming here often oh.
do! But don't come like Tom Lee.

Jack says that gave him fright.

DETECTED BY A SEAL RING

Last night the Sheriff of Dodge county,
Neb., passed up the Texas Central road,
having in charge a man named Marcus
Withersau, accused OF murder. Wither-
sau was paying court to young lady
named Bradley, who resided in the town
Of Fremont, Neb., and was engaged to
be married to her when stranger named
Joel Lauridge came to the town Lau-
ridge succeeded in short time i'll claim
ing a good part Of the young lady's at
tention. This greatly dispieased With
ersau, who is of a very jealous tempera-
ment, and he was not slow in giving his
apparent rival many evidences Of bis ILL.,
Will, openly insulting him whenever an
opportunity was afforded.
Yet young Laurilge, being received
with favor by the young lady, continued
to visit her. The engagement between
Withersau ana his affiancea was unbrol-
en-, however, and the wedding day had
been fixed upon.
One evening Withersau, while on his
way to the town to visit his aflianced,
met her III company with Lauridge out
riding, and, seized by fit of jealousy,
he galloped mp to them and shot Lauridge,
killing him almost instantly. lie fed
the country, and it was thought he had
gone back to Canada, whore he formerly
lived. He wore on his hand a seal ring
of the young lady, which was mounted
by a gold cross, and it was this that led
to his capture. 4 young man named
Swazey, a cousin Of Miss Bradley, had
enlisted III the United States army of
Fort Duncan, on the Rio Grande. He
had never seen Withersau, but had fre-
quently heard his cousin describe the
ring belonging to her, which Withersau
wore when. he killed Lauridge. One
day he saw n strange man at the fort
wearing the identical ring, but on inquir-
ing the strangers name he gave it as
Bill Poindexter. The soldier wrote to
the authorities Of Fremont, giving de-
scriptioD of the man and ring, and the
Sheriff, being satisfied that the wearer of
the ring was Withersau, came after and
captured him.

ABOVE THE CLoUDs.-Probably the
largest and highest rock in the known
world is the Snnth Dome of the Eose-
mite. Standing at the fork of the upper
valley, it rears itself, a solid rocky loaf,
5000 feet above the level of the ground.
\ more powerful hand than that of Titan
has cut away the eastern half, leaving a
sheer precipioe OF over mile in height
No man ever trod the top of this dome
until last year, Former visitors gazed in
wonder at the spikes driven into the rock
by hardy spirits, who had repeatedly eli
deavored to scale it. Tie shreds of ropes
dangling in the wind told the story OF
their failure. Last year, however, after
thousands Of dollars were spent, several
persons found their way to the top of the
dome, and this summer two sheep were
discovered browsing on the hitherto in
accessible peak.

WASHINGTON LAUGH.-It Is pleasant
to learn that Washington not only laugh
ed, but fairly roared. The biographers
have 50 swathed him with dignity that
the man seemed almost lost in the hero.
4 writer in Lippincott's Magazine tells
the following story which she heard
when little girl from Mrs Madison:
One day, in Philadelphia says Mis-
tress Dolly Madison, Z was sitting in nv
parlor with very dear friend, Mrs. r.
B. Lee, when in walked Payne Todd
(har SOM dressed in my calico bed-gown.
While we were laughing at the figure he
cut, the servant threw open the door and
announced General and Mrs. Washing
ton. What to do with that dreadful boy
did mt know. He couldn't face the
President in that garb. Neither could
he leave the room without meeting them,
for the door they were entering was the
only one. L made him crawl quickly
under q low settee on which [ was sitting.
L had inst time to arrange the drapery
when Washington entered. After the
courtiy greetings, and the usual compI-
nents Of the season, there came from
under the settee a heavy sigh, that evi.
IDENTITY attracted the Generals notice.
However, l only talked and laughed a
little louder, hoping to divert his atten-
ton when-ob, met-there came an out
cry and kick that could not be ignored
SO stopped down and dragged Payne
out by the leg. General Washington's
dignity left him for once. Laugh! Whv
he fairly roared. He nearly went into
commissions. The sight Of that boy in
that gown, all So unexpected, coming
