A REAL GLANCE.
A Pair of Lovers Find Themselves
Possessed of 100000.

Cincinnati Gazette: There are romances in
real life. Imaginative writers construct many
of them and please the popular fancy, but
there are few occurrences in life to furnish
foundation for any. A genuine affair of the
kind occurred in Cincinnati d few days ago,
which is worth more than mere formal
marriage notice, and which may tend to as
sure the immense army of hopeful living
couples that there may be something ro-
mantle in store for all. The heroine was an
intelligent but unpretending girl, who was
forced by circumstances to work tor living.
She sewed In a store at salary so meager,
and with work so laborious that she gladly
accepted a position as water-girl In popu-
lar boarding house. she had previously been
offered a position as governess, but preferred
the other. The only advantage the board
ing house afforded over the store was that of
family sympathy. She was not so lonesome,
had the sympathy of the family she served,
and although the wages were less remunera-
tive, she had less hard work and beside had
the friendship of the family she served.
Among the boarders was one probably as
Door as herself He was advertising solicitor
for city paper, with very moderate IN
come. Believing themselves poor, but yet
able to keep the wolf from the door, an at
tachment sprang up, which developed into
an engagement. OF course In their case, as
in that of all lovers, the course of love did
not run smoothly. There were doubts Of
| faithfulness, and the consequent quarrels,
| until a few days ago. the young lady learned
| that she had fallen heir to an estate IN Ger
| many, valued at fifty thousand dollars, and a
personality worth forty thousand more,
making In all about one hundred thousand
| dollars in American money. The young lady
| remained true to the lover of her poverty,
and their marriage was consummated a few
| DAYS ago at the Grand hotel. 1t was a case
| of genuine affection, and as such deserves
the sympathy of all lovers.

THE MURPHY MOVEMENT.

Never in the history of Mexico,
has she been SO thoroughly aroused
upon any subject, rs upon this one
OF temperance. DIR. Conway, with
his wonderful magnetic energy, comes
into our community unheralded and
electrified IL people into an enthu-
siasm that has no parallel, not OK
cepting the most hotIy contested pc
litical campaign.
The movement has met with n fee
bic opposition from unexpected
sources, which has only served to
give the able orators an opportunity
to apply the ''tongue lash" to their
recreancy, adding thereby to the in
tenseness of the absorbing interest.
DR.. Conway, by his organizing abili-
ty, has clustered around him some Of
our ablest divines and legal light.
whose tongues have become inspired
upon this theme. The almost desert
ed ''claim'' called temperance, sud-
denly proves to be rich in precious
deposits that startle the p~rospectors
themselves. Opening a '~'bonanza''
in which all are taking shares, many
of tie shareholders will realize a
moral and social fortune beyond
computation.
The leader of this grand success
deserves a substantial testimonial at
the hands of the citizens of Mexico,
and we know the liberal hearts of our
people will respond ~cheerfully to a
cal upon them. So gentlemen of the
committee, having the Doctors inter-
est in charge, ''govern yourselves ae-
cordingly." send him away with a
comfortable feeling in his pocket and
gratitude in his heart in return for
the hearts that feel grateful to him
for having made cheerful and happy
many homes In our midst.
