Savory Mess--The Perils OF wedlock
When a Fellow Has Been Pooling
Around Promiscuously With the Fair

Given fast young man, Tilted and in
furiated young woman, and half a dozen of
rotten eggs, and the reader can imagine the
result. But Imagination can hardly picture
the scene or tell how much it was enjoyed by
the boys and the girls.
he was d gay young chap in our good
Uncle Samuels employ, and the initials of
his name were Charles Harris. During
business hours be made his headquarters at
Fort Smelling; after business hours he came
to town and had good time with the girls.
Frequently, however. he tatried in Mime
apolis, where fair but frail damsel named
Della St. Clair monopolized his attentions. He
professed eternal devotion to her and lavished
upon her all the attentions her heart could
desire and his pocket-book permit. But
alas! this nice young man was snconstant.
He had other fameS--too many for his own
peace of mind. He came to town last week
and on Thursday morning couple of police
men found him in questionable female soci-
ETY. in Irvine block. They had no compass
sion upon him, and dragged him before the
august magistrate who presides in the rnn-
nicipai court. by whom he was mulcted III
the sum of $40 and the costs of police es-
cort. He departed from the court sadder
but not wiser man. Towards evening he
began to pine for female society, and soon
prevailed upon young lady to leave the
| paternal roof with him and visit a parson,
by whom they were married, much
to the sorrow and chagrin of her parents.
! But under these circumstances he found
himself in very bad pickle. He hardly
| knew how to molly the auburn-haired
Della. Nevertheless he thought he'd try.
| So he penned an epistle in which he reas-
serted his devotion to the Minneapolis belle
of the brothel, aud promised that as soon as
| he could get things Strengthened out with his
new wife he would once more fly to her
arms. But Della didn't swallow the story.
| She knew he was giving her taffy, so she
plotted little piece OF revenge on her own
hook.
| Coming to st. Paul yesterday afternoon,
Della visited q grocery not far from the
coroner's Office, where she purchased half
a dozen eggs. She didn't select them for
| their freshness, but chose those that looked
as if layed by the hen that accompanied
Noah into the ark. She then repaired to a
mais0a de joie situated under the bluff, and
quietly watched her opportunity. 1t came
with the 5 o'clock train from Fort Smelling.
| Her dear Charley was seen approaching with
| two companions, arrayed in faultless
style, with his lunch basket in one
hand and slender cane twirling in the other.
! She got out at back door, and running
swiftly through an alley made an attack in
the rear. The first missile struck hi m
squarely between the shoulders. Thinking
he had been overtaken by Chicago zephyr
! Charley turned half way around, when an
4 other specimen of decayed hen fruit strucl,
him in the armpit, quickly followed by still
another, which landed and disseminated itself
over his shirt bosom and filed his
nostrils with its fragrance. lie rushed for
his assailant and seized her by the arms but
not soon enough to prevent her from
amounting his head with fourth egg, more
pungent in its odor than any Of its prede
cesSors.
By this time the woman had become
thoroughly alive to the righteousness of the
farce in which she was playing SO importan
part, and was conyulsed with laughter. A:
she planted the last egg where it would dc
the most good, she exclaimed, Take tina
for wedding gift, being as you didn'
get anything else,' and, free
ing herself from the grasl
of Charley, she ran laughing back u
her place OF ambush to purify her hands
and her clothing with plentiful libations o
water, followed by the hearty applause of
bevy of powdered beauties who thronged tn
windows of the aforesaid mason de joie. am
the convulsiye laughter of score or more o
wayfarers who happened to witness th
scene. A friendly grocer gave Charley
chance 10 disinfect himself before he pun
!, sued his homeward way.
And this is how Charley Harris learned tn
truth of the old adage that ''Hell hath n
fury like woman scorned."
