gang had the fullest confidence in Nat
ALI were watching him, rather adm1rlng-
! " than anxiously. Murch stood on the
dam ready to help them up when tho log
struck it; for we knew that Nat would
work the log off to one side of the fume.
1t was impossible to hear what Nat
said because of the roar, but his first move
was to get Alph on his feet. BE held the
log so steadily, by balancing his own
weight against Alph's, that the poor fell
low was enabled to get up.
But Alph was one Of those, who when
scared, have hardly the power to help
! themselves. He barely managed to keep
his footing. Nat, with few strokes OF
his pike turned the log out OF the direct
drau9ht into the fume.
A moment more and the end struck the
pier, eight or ten feet to the right OF the
| f1ume"
slump now' the boss heard Nat say
as it struck.
It was not more than four or five feet
to the crown timber, but instead Of max
ing the jump Alph lost his balance and
staggered back upon Nat, who was close
behind, ready dump after him, and both
tell OF into the water.
In an instant the upperend of the log
swung back across the fume, and struck
against the other pier.
There it hupg-but the two boys were
on the upper side Murch reached down
to help Alph up. Nat had his arms over
the log, and seemed to be waiting for
Murch's hand-when suddenly he went
from our sight! An eddy had formed
under the log beside him, and sucked
him down.
A cry arose that was heard above the
thunder of the flood. The men rushed
frantically on the dam. Some even swan
ashore from the raft.
We thought at first Nat had gone
through the flume; but on looking down
under the log, we saw HIM fattened
against the left pier, where the eddy had
drawn him, and where he was held by
the swift current as in vice. It was al
most sickening to see his arms waving
down there in that yellow-tinted torrent.
Murch got down on the leg, and lev
er with cant hook attachment was
thrust down and caught into the poor
boys jacket, and we tried to haul him
up.
But the moment we wrenched him from
where he lay jammed against the pier,
the current bore him through the hume.
We had glimpse of his body whirled
amidst the foam, down over the apron
and into the great, seething pool below.
at the foot Of the pool, fifty or slxtyfods
below the dam, where there was then
gravel bar, on which the water was not
over two or three feet deep. The men
ran down there, and wading out on the
bar, caught Mats body as it was rolled
along.
But he was gone-past any help of
ours. We had only recovered his bruised
and l1feless form.
The rough, hard fellows hung over
him and cried like children, though they
were not men who often wept.

thousand seven hundred and City dollars
and twenty three cents.
You have heard about, and perhaps
seen, the singular capers of mailman,
or the wild antics of those crazed with
rum, or the grotesYue dancing of saw
ages. Well, Judging from what Carrie
told me, and from the appearance of my
apartment after it was al over, am led
to believe that were it possible to con-
centrate the three aforementioned
species of demons into one, their caper-
ing and dancing would appear tame in
comparison with mine that night.

Then ! ask for an explanation. It was

It was simply a blunder of Carries father.
He had mistaken my coat for his own,
and worn it down town, never dreaming
that small fortune was lying idly in
the pocket.

the affair, but was the next door to it.

Fashion Notes.

Square trains are coming in vogue.
Children's dresses are made longer.
Flowers are used on English round
hats.
Jacqeminot red is the newest shade of
the popular color.
Bell top parasols and umbrellas are
again in bogue.
Long lace mits are more worn for even
lug toilet than kid gloves.
Beige colord gauze is the popular veil
ing material for round hats.
Flower bonnets for summer wear are
made ofsmall flowers only.
Pure white is more fashionable at the
moment than cream OF ivory.
Princes lingerie is absolutely necessary
with the present style of dress.
Short ostrich tips in punches are pre-
ferred to long sweeping plumes.
Cutaway jackets and waistcoats of silk,
terry cloth, or bourette are very stylish.
Bead ornaments require great taste and
careful management IN their use to look
we'll.
All childrens garments, whether for
boys or girls, have the skirts longer by
several inches.
Bonnet trimmings are arranged to
produce simple and quiet effect by the
best millinery artists.
Old gold, Jacques red, beige, mastic,
and robins egg blue are the colors most
sought for at the moment.
The fashionable evening shades are pale
rose, pale blue, opaline or rose gray, pale
dove and ashes OF roses.
White terry makes pretty waiscoat
that may be worn with any kind OF q street
or indoor morning costume.
The rule for little girls skirts is for
them to be long enough to reach line
just above the top Of the boots.
Medici rufus and sleeves, with puhs in
the armhole and around the elbow, are
announced as coming fashions.
An ostrich tip or wing and an orna-
ment of metal, jet or beads, with scarf
Of yelling material, is the only trimming
that round hat needs.

Mems Love and Self Lope.

Bow Bells.
+ Girls are sometimes admonished not to
flirt because, however pleasant it might
be to them, it might break the hearts of
those with whom they firt. Nonsense.
We have heard of victims Of blighted
affection, but never yet came across one
Time, in this sort of matters, works won
ders. We doubt whether any man ever
yet died of a broken heart. Men are
more vain than women. There are ex-
ceedingly few of them who are not fiat
tered by the idea of some women falling
in love with them. The lady for the mo-
ment affords them this qualification of
selflove. She makes herself as agreeable
as she can, If the vanity Of the man
leads him to believe that she has fallen
victim to his charms, this is his fault,
not hers. The illusion has raised him to
the seventh heaven for brief period. In
one of DeBernard's novels he describes an
old Captain who lives supremacy happy
because he fancies that years ago, some
girl died of broken heart because he
declined to marry her. He carries about
her portrait, and on all occasions takes it
out and weeps over it. One day, howev-
er, he meets the girl, who had not died,
but had married grocer, and forgot all
about the Captain. He is in despair.
he can no longer indulge in the luxury
OF grieving over the sad fate Of the object
of his youthful affections. Firt on.young
ladies, and do not imagine that the
amusement will break the heart of any
enc. 1t may wound his vanity, quite
likely, and where this is the only quality
the man has, the blow may stagger him.
But it will do him good-show him his
real selishness. So hirt on, young ladies,
bat at the same time temper the blow to
the tenderness Of the youth who is to re-
| ceive it.

Some Grateful People.

Who says that this is an ungratefui
world? Three weeks ago, an old gentle
man living in Paris was so ill that he
sent for lawyer to make will, and for
several friends to whom he wished to saw
goodbye before dying. One of these
was young fellow who occupied an attic
on the sixth floor of the same house.
After the will had been signed every one
went to the old mans bedside to say 4
word of comfort to him. When the lodg-
er from the attic drew near, the dying
man took both his hands and said: "Do
you remember, young man. when last we
met? 1t was on the first night OF 'Erna-
MI was not we'll then, but rose from
my bed to go and see it once more.

apologize. ~ know" said the old
man. 81 also knew that, seeing me
without comfortable seat, so soon as the
act was finished, you compelled me to
take your stall, while you took my stool.
You thereby allowed me to spend the
last pleasant evening" OF my life. You
alone out of all that crowd, pitied my
white hair" When the young loo ger re-
turned the following Gay the old man
was dead. he had left parting mes
sage for this young friend, with a SOU
venir of their last meeting at the opera,
in the form OF check for $4,000. Nor
is this the only instance of this worlds
gratitude. Only few weeks ago young
girl in Pennsylvania received handsome
bequest for aiding an old lady who was
taken sick in railway car. Then there
is young man in London who helped an
old gentleman out of an omnibus and
lent him an umbrella, and subsequently
became his heir. Another young man in
Western New York, who had remained
in boarding house for many years, re-
ceived legacy from the Iandlady as
mark of appreciation for his tolerance in
never once complaining of meal.

Ny sister'n be down in minute, and says
you're to wait, if you please.
And says might stay till she came, if I'd
promise her never to tease.
Nor speak till you spoke to me first. But
that's nonsense, for how would you know
What she told me to say, if Ididn't? Don't you
really and truely think SO?
And then your feet strange here alone! And
you wouldn't know just where to sit;
For that chair isn't strong on its legs. and zee
never use it bit.
We keep it to match with the sofa. But Jack
says it would be like you
To flop yourself right down upon it and knock
out the very last screw.
"s'pose you try? won't tell. You're afraid
to! Oh! you're afraid they would think it
was mean!
Well, then, there's the album-thats pretty,
II you're sure that your fingers are clean.
For sister says sometimes daut it; but she
only says that when she's cross.
There's her picture. You know it? It's like
her; but she amt as good looking, Of
course!
This is me. It's the best of 'em ALL Now

That once was little as that? It's the only
one that could be bought
For that was the message to Pa from the
photograph man where sat
That he wouldn't print off any more till he
frstgot his money for that.
"What? Maybe you're tired of waiting.
Why, often she's longer than this.
There's all her back hair to do up and all of
her front curls to frz.
But it's nice to be sitting here talking like
grown people, just you and me.
DO you think you'll be coming here often? U
do! But don't come like Tom Lee.
Tom Lee? Her last beau Why, my good
ness! he used to be here day and night,
I'LL folks thought that he'd be her husband !;

You won't run away, then, as he did? for
you're not rich man, they say.

Now, are you? And how poor are they?

open, while Hugh sat in his sentry on
the other side, smoking his pipe and watch
| ing up the convergin0 lines of metal that
seemed like satin ribbons tied in bow
by the perspective.
He did not have to wait long. First
came the rumble-the far away sound
that dies away while it increases-and
then, swinging suddenly around curve,
the hand-car bearing the girl he loved
and man he hated. He drew another Whit
of smoke, and looked calmly at the tum-
brill of death, with its arms whirling
wildly, since George lad trusted to the
steep grade and the appalling accelcra-
ton he had given the machine to accomp-
l1sh the passage of the bridge, and had
sat down alongside Of Mollie with his
arm around her waist
Just as they neared the draw, which
was never legally allowed open on sun
| day, he turned his head, and his face
became white. Mollie felt the chill
circle her waist as his blood froze in his
arms. He sprang to his feet, and tried to
seize those revolving handles, which were
only blur and mist.
He thought Of throwing the girl of,
but before he could think of anything
else, the car took the leap, and as Hugh
o'Donnell sat smoking in his sentry-box,
he saw the upturned faces, pallid with
agony, but pressed close together, go
down with the hand car to the deep pools
and cruel rocks of the Fox Run, and as
he did SO, he said:
course you!" and lighted another pipe.
They found him there, but mad-not
raving mad, but in that Emphatic state
of mania which is. beyond reach. On the
shore below, held by the gnarled roots of
willow, were discovered the bodies of
George and Mollie. In the moment of
death she had thr. wn her arms about
him, and as the sunlight filtered though
the surging branches and fell upon the
upturned faces, they seemed like bride
and groom in the sleep of happiness. So
they we're, but Death had been the min
lister.

'Pants for glory" is the heading to
late literary effort that is going the
rounds of the press. We haven't read
the article yet, but we surely shall, to
find out it they are cut little at the bot
toms and bagging at the knees to learn if
they have cords down the side, and a
pocket behind; to ascertain if they are
worn without suspenders, SO as to allow the
shirt to foam out over the top; and delve
into all the details, that we may in
struct our tailor, for the pants of glory
are the pants for us.-F fulton Times.

Aserpent. Amont the Books.

One day gentleman in India went in
to his library and took down book from
the shelves. As he did so he felt a slight
pain in his finger, like the prick Of pin
He thought that pin had been stuck by
some carelesa person in the cover of the
book. But soon his finger began to swell
then his arm, and then his whole body,
and in few days he died. It was not a
pin among the books, but small and
deadly serpent. There are many serpents
among the books nowadays. They nestle
in the foliage of some of our most fas-
cinating literature: they coil around the
flowers whose perfume intoxicates the
senses. We read, we are charmed with
the plot of the story, by the skill with
which the characters are sculptured or
grouped, by the gorgeousness of the word
painting-we hardly feel the pin-prick
of the evil that is insinuated. But it
stings and poisons US. When the record
of human souls is made up, on what
multitudes will be inscribed, "Poisoned
by the serpents among the books!"

got so stuck up and proud that you have

think you would have enough reverence

continued suction, making Tipping

JUNKETTING PRESIDENTS. - General
Grant and his Cabinet have set an exam

The Woman IN the Case.

1t is going hard with John Sherman.
Every revolution of Potter's wheel
makes his case assume an ughlier form.
We were led TO expect that the appear
ance of Mrs. jerks as witness would
clear up the whole matter of his letter TO
Weber and Anderson, and give the
country at last the bottom facts in regard
to that document, about which his own
memory is so treacherous. So far from
that, this eel-hke witness slips back and
forth through the hands of the commit
tee without doing anything towards the
exoneration OF Mr.. Sherman, and only
making more than ever apparent the de-
yious ways of Louisiana politicians.
Her own right to call herself one of this
set was fully vindicated by her bold
mendacity, her pert use of political slang
and her unblushing confesSio on thai
