Scotch ConriHIlIn.

A shy young man of Scotland for fourteen
years had wooed the asso of his heart. One
night Jamie-for that was the young mans
name--called to see Jennie, aud there was
terrible look about the eyes, just as there is
sometimes when they've made up their minds
to pop the question. And jamie came in and
sat down by the fire just as he had done every
night for fourteen years, aud he talked of the
weather, and the cattle, and the crops, and
the stock market / was going to say-but no.
they didn't talk about that aud finally Jamie
said
"Hve known you for long time"
Yes, jamie" said she.
"And-Pvc thought I'd always like to know
you, Jennie"
"E.e.s-Jamie."
"And so I've bought lot, Jenuie.'
"Yes, jamie"
So-that--when-"
"Yes-Jamie--yes"
"Were dead, we can lay our bones together"
The fool had gone and bought n lot in q
graveyard, but Jennie was not discouraged.
She knew her man wcll-after fourteen years
she ought to-and so she said gently:
Jamie"
"Yes, Jennie"
"Dont you think 'twoud be better to lay
our bones together while we're yet alive ~

Romance OF Two Young Mon who Pro-
cured Licenses to Marry the Same Girl.
From the Lonokc tAii) Dcmocmtl
Tuesday morning Mr.. w. D. Bowers obtained
license to marry Miss Loonora L. Powell ;
later in the day Mr.. J. r. Allison applied for
and secured Il license to marry the same young
lady. lie was informed that the first license
had been issued, and it is said he left in hot
haste for the house Of his expected BRIDE We
have not yet heard which ono was mado
happy. The young lady referred to, Miss
Loonora l.. Powell is the second daughter
Of Il. G. Powell. who lives some four
miles southeast of Austin, is rather
fascinating lady, was somewhat Of
a belle, but wcs never thought TO be n
coquettc. But the young gent who arrived
just one hour too late no doubt thinks she
would come under that head. II seems that
tine one she didn't marry had more than once
made his boast that no woman in America
could !" jilt him. So tho fair Leonora put her
wits together to undeceive the young gent,
they being engaged at the time. She had but
recently formed the acquaintance of the gem
teman she subsequently married, and as he
had made proposal of marriage she deter
mined to accept his proposition at their next
interview, which she did, appointing the same
day on which she was to have been led to the
altar by her first lover, but one hour earlier
for the ceremony to be performed.
