END OF AN ELoPEMENT.

A New York Lady the Victim Of on Adventurer'
From the Dublin Freman's Journal, Nov lbI
Among the passengers on board the
White Star steamer which sailed from
Queenstown on last Wednesday was a
lady who had some time previously
left her fathers house ir New York in
company with an adventurer, who,
after having brought her to Europe
and travelled with her through differ
ent Continental cities, heartlessly desert
ed her at Preston, in England, taking
with him her vhluables, including cost
ly diamond ring, 1t appears that some
time last year gentleman calling him,
self a stockbroker, from London, and at
that time in New York, obtained an
e1tree to the society of wealthy gentle
man in New York. In February last It
was found that this person had eloped
with the daughter of the gentleman, all
interesting young lady of nineteen years
The pair took steamer to Europe, though
a note was left behind that they were
travelling in the States. The father, a
Scotchman, belonging to Glasgow, had
relatives living in that city, and think
ing bis daughter might communicate
with them he telegraphed to Glasgow
detective. The telegram, however, ar
rived too late, as the Cugitives landed az
Queenstown The detective traced them
to London, Paris and other places, and
subsequently to various English water
ing places, but then lost sight Of them
A short time ago the lady communicated
with her father from Edinbnygh. This
information was forwarded to the de-
tectives, who set a watch on the post
Office and found the young lady. She
states that her male companion left her
at Preston, while travelling from London
to Edinburgh, having taken the valise
which contained the money, between
So 600 and So, 600, and jewels, among the
latter being diamond ring worth el3O.
She had been in lodgipgsin Leith for the
past two months and entirely without
funds. 1t has been asCertaned that the
stock broker" is an adventurer and
swindler,

cain her fortune, but without success
Rising from the table, she told the
French lady how she had lost more 'han
she owned, but that in her desire to pay
a debt of honor, she would instruct I,ilSs n1s
steward to convey to her the title deeds
of all her property. At this the victor,
ous antagonist smiled and requested that
she might have her own way IN the
matter, since she had won. A priest ana
lawyer were sent for. When they ar
rived. the Russian lady was asked to
bind herself in a solemn oath never
again to touch a card or risk money at
any any game of chance. She did so, and
then signed an engagement to pay ,6h,er her
opponent the annual sum OF S2OOO' me
VOW never to play cards for money Go6 again
she faithfully kept, and the $4,000 was
punctually paid every year, the French
lady giving it the name ofthe Queen OF
SPADES Bounty" and invariably giving
it to the poor Of Paris.

MANS AGE.

Few men die of old age. Almost all
die of disappointment, passion, mentaI
or bodily toll, or accident. The com
mon expression, "choked with passion"
has little exaggeration in it, even tho
not suddenly fatal, strong passions
shorten life. Strong-bodied men often
die young; weak men often live Longer
than the strong, for the strong use theil
strength and the weak have none tc
use. The latter take care of them.
selves; the former do not. AS it il
with the body, so it is with the MIND
and temper. The strong are apt tC
break, or, like a candle to run; the
weak to run out. The inferior animals
that live temperate lives have general,
ly their prescribed number of years
The horse lives twenty-five; the OK
fifteen or twenty the dog ten or twelve;
the rabbit eight; the guinea pig six o.
seven years. These numbers all bear q
similar proportion to the time the ami
NAL takes to grow to its full size. Bti
man, of all the animals, is one that
seldom lives this average, He ought to
live hundred years according to
physical law for five times twenty is a
hundred but instead of that, he scarce
ly reaches on an average four times
his growing period; the cat six times,
and the rabbit even eight times the
standard of measurement The reason
is obvious-man is not only the most
irregular and intemperate, but the most
laborous and hardworked of all the
animals. lie is also the most irritable,
and there is reason to believe, though
we can not tell what an animal Sc
cretly feels, that more than any other
animal, man cherishes wrath to keep 1t
warm, and consumes bimself with fire

ALADY of rank in Paris died three
weeks ago, in the fashionable quarter of
the Arc de Triumphe, of whom an inter-
esting story is told. She was a famous
card d-player, and was credited with know
ing every game there was to know.
When travelling in foreign land, she
met, one day, in hotel, Russian lady
with that passion for gambling said to
be inherent in the Russian nation. Anx.
ieus to play with the lady from Paris,
she wrote, requesting few games. Her
request was granted, and the ladies
played all night, the Russian losing at
every hand, until her opponent had won
from her more money than the mines in
the Ural had produced for her revenues
In twenty-five years. At last the Rus
sian lady made despairing effort to re-

THE BRITISH With THEIR BAG
GAGE.
rWar Correspondence London TimesI

WAR Correspondence London Timesl
Even for this paratively small col
umn of only about 5000 men supplies
and carriage on gigantic scale have
been collected; and one can not help
wondering what it would be for an army
of 5000 or 100000. Thousands and
thousands of bags of grain are collected
here and placed in an enormous inclo
sure under a Commssariat guard. Lines
of camels stretching literally for miles
stream along the roads, going up to the
front or simply coming back from graz
ing. 1t is on these occasions that one
observes how completely helpless and
resourceless British troops are compared
with native. One squadron of British
cavalry apparently requires more car
riage than half dozen regiments of ir
regular cavalry. There is no doubI
about it that the Britisher is made un-
COMMONLY comfortable at all phases Of
his soldering; but he is, after all, well
worth it, and each death represents a
loss of at least 9100 to the State.

HOW THE CHINESE STAB.

About two years ago Chinese woman
named Guy Ngun, living in the old Bap'
tist Church building on Washington St.,
was murderously assaulted by a China
man because she refused to live with
him. The assailant stabbed her in the
back with a large knife, which be left in
the wound. Several persons, attracted
to her room by cries for help went in
and attempted to remove the knife, but
found that the blade had been driven
into the bone and was immovable. One
man, in endeavoring to take the knife
out, stood on the bed on which the wo.
man was lying, and, taking hold of the
handle Of the knife with both hands,
pulled, but was unable to extract the
weapon, and in pulling lifted the woman
from the bed. Finally physician who
had been sent for came, and, by placing
his knees against the womsn's back and
drawing on the knife with all his might,
succeeded in extracting it. In course of
time the woman recovered from the
effects Of the wound, and the man who
stabbed her was arrested and sent TO the
State Prison for five years.-San Fran

Symptoms Of a DiseasedLiver

DAIN in the right side, under the
l edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen
eral are costiye, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part, There is
generally a considerable loss Of men,
ory, accompanied with a painful sen.
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer.
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them eX-
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
