From the Princeton Union.
Hattie Stanley, girl under Is years
OF age, who has been residing with her
parents IN the woods, about four miles
above town, deserted her home one day
last week ; her father, Jack Stanley
found her in an Indian wigwam in
company with big, ]oafng one~eyed
Indian, to whom she asserted she had
been married-in Indian fashion. The
father endeavored to persuade her
to return to her home, this she
positively refused to do, he insisted
on his request being complied
with, the Indian then pitched into
Jack and pounded him numerically
Jack came to town last Friday to have
his wounds dressed and to invoke the
aid of the law, but for some cause or
other the officers refused to inter-
fere. Several parties advised Jack to
take the law into his own hands and if
it should happen that one red>skin
should fail to be present at the next an
nual payment Uncle Sam would be
none the poorer. On Saturday the
ill-mated pair departed for Mile
Laos Lake. The girl has been
considered "wild one' for year or
so, but why she should become infat>
uated with the worst>looking Indian
that roams the forests is a mystery to
most people conversant with the facts
in the case.

Lady, farewell Please send this
woman's things to this address in the
city" and Carl handed Lulu a card
while he continued: Keep that death
charm, but take from it that deadly
poison. Keep it as a souvenir that
Capt. Carl repaid the service you did
his son."
Then turning to the guilty, trembling
woman, he said to her simply:
"Come"
Without word, and with bowed head
she followed him, and Lulu was left
alone IN horror and grief. Thus her
father found her, and from her lips
heard the terrible story. He folded his
daughter in his arms in rapture at her
escape, while he said:
Il do believe her guilty now, Lulu.
for | remember I believed she loved me
at first, yet her manner changed as soon
as l met vii tn financial misfortunes; and
it was evidently her intention to kill
you and marry Fred De Lancy, for she
frequently asked about his riches. I
will order her trunks sent off at once,
| wonder what her band will do with
herr"
81 cannot tell, father"
Then we will drive to their camp TO-
morrow and have a talk with Capt.
Carl, who seems to be a splendid fell
low"
And the next day Lulu felt so much
better that she drove to the gypsy en-
campment with her father; but the
wanderers had departed, and when they
returned again to the nei ghborhood, five
years after, Lulu was Mrs. Fred De
Lancy, and had little boy whom they
had named Carl, after the chief. who,
with his son, came to Sanford Hill to
visit them.
The gypsy boy had grown into a
handsome man, and Capt. Carl's locks
were nearly white, and look of set
tied melancholy rested in his eyes.
When asked by Lulu and her hus.
band about Viola, he said, in low,
stern voice:
"She is dead, lady ; our tribe SEN
fenced her to die by her own hand, and,
being gypsy, she obeyed."
And Capt. Carl and his son wendell
their way back to their woodland en-
campment, burying in their hearts bit
ter secret.

DarWin's Fathers.

A gorilla from the west coast of Afri-
ca is now lodged in the Crystal Palace,
London. The chimpanzee and the
orang-outang have arms that enable
them, with single stoop, to touch the
ground, while the arm of the gorilla is
not much out of proportion to a long
armed human being. In the form of
the hand and fingers, too, it is more
like man, these being much shorter than
those of the other two. Most of all, its
ear is strikingly human, for it is small
and beautifully formed, and, instead of
a thin leathery flap jutting outward, is
set well to the head. Tt has also we'll
formed brow, and it's dark brown eyes
are lighted up with an expression
which seems to speak of latent intelli-
gence. In profile it has the exact re-
semblance to a little Guinea negro, the
blacklist of black; but, looked at full
faced, the almost total absence of a
nose, the fiat, open nostrils, the long
and powerful jaws and the vast cavity
which forms the mouth, rob it of what
is suggestive of the human face di-
vine." When standing at It's full height
the gorilla may be about 2 feet, but If
it lives to be full grown it may attain
from to feet.

Treatment Of Crime and Criminals in
l,#... the Future.

Basing his opinion on what he re-
CARDS as the legitimate teaching of the
doctrine of heredity, writer in the
Journal of Science believes that the
criminal legislation of the future-un-
less dominated by those who pander to
crime will do something like this
The lineage and connections of every
offender, especially of every habitual
criminal, will be carefully scrutinized,
and ali surviving members will be sub
jected to an unobtrusive but penetrat-
ing scrutiny. The younger members
of the race will be, as far as possible.
surrounded by such moral and religious
influences as will most effectually check
and counteract their probable inbred
tendency to crime. Courts of Justice,
he says, will have their criminal geneolo-
gists, whose records will shed a new
and most valuable light on not a few
unsolved problems both of biology and
of mental science. 1t is to be hoped
that, when the future" comes, it will
be able to use such power wisely and
without malice. But the author is
more radical still. GAS for the man."
he continues, "who has once formally
declared war against society, hosting,
so to speak, the black flag, care will be
taken that he shall neither repeat his
offense nor, after it's commission, be-
come parent"

THE DEATH CHARM.
A Story of Love and Crime


Along broad highway in the State
OF Maryland rode two persons, mounted
upon two spendid animals, with the
easy grace OF equestrians accustomed to
the saddle.
One was maiden of scarcely more
than Is, with fresh, lovely face and a
form developing into perfection, wear
ing dark-b]ue habit and a SLOUGH hat
with heavy ostrich plume. Gauntlet
gloves iHcased her tiny hands, while
abOnt her there was an air of high
breeding. ,.,-.
Her company was nearly double her
age, attired in the undress uniform of
Captain of cavalry. He was striking
looking man, with frank, fearless face
that was very fascinating.
That there was love affair existing
between the two-young as was the
malden-their glances indicated, and
the course of true love, in their case,
seemed to be running smooth.
Presently they came upon a crowd of
men in the roadway. A youth lay
bound upon the ground, his face pale
and bleeding, and about him bent
halt dozen rude fellows, talking in an
CRY tones. ...... ....... ~. 0,..
Garter, what means this disturb
ance| asked the maiden, sternly, ad-
dressing one of the men. ll -.
The man touched his hat politely and
replied: .a- H., r. -.
1T means, Miss LULU, that we've
caught Tartar here, but we've got him
tied fast now"
What has he been doing, Carter?"
Well, you see, miss, I saw him COM
ing out OF the forest, where, you know,
your father allows no cunning, and
called to him to stop and he paid no at
tentlon to me, SO, calls the bows from
the field and we gave chase and caught
him, though he fought like tiger"
sand have you dared attack man in
the public road, sir? Ny father shall
hear OF this at once" said Lulu Sanford,
angrily.
He's nothing but a gypsy, miss.
from the camp over the hill yonder,"
sullenly said the man.
He is human being, and was do
ing no harm. Unbind him at once.
STRIP
The young officer now sprung from
his horse and quickly released the
youth, who was secured with a rope.
and said kindly, Get up, my man, and
return to your camp"
The youth turned his dark eyes upon
the sneaker and said faiof1x. ~ tssts = @
| cannot, sir; I am badly hurt"
Shame on you, Carter Ia number
of burly men to beat a poor boy as YOU
have done! You shall suffer for this.
all of you'll" cried the maiden, indig.
nantly; and, as the men hung their
heads abashed, she continued:
Raise him in your arms and carry
him at once to the mansion, while ride
by and send DR.. Moore to see him.
Tell Jane to put him in a comfortable
room"
Anxious to redeem themselves in the
eyes Of their employers daughter. the
men raised the youth in their arms and
bore him away, while Lulu Sanford and
her escort, Capt. Fred De Lancy, gal
loped on after the physician.
An hour after the two rode up to tie
door of very handsome mansion sur
rounded by ornamental grounds, flower
gardens, and every indication that
those who dwelt there were possessed
of wealth and refined taste.
AT the door an elderly gentleman met
them, who called out pleasantly:
