A Coscb,usu's wooing.

The society people Of Murray Hill,
the sristocratlc quarter Of New YORK
city, have lately been agitated over q
scandal in which the inevitable coach
man again figures, and which has
thrown q shadow over one Of the most
prominent and highly respectable lam
lies OF that fashionable locality. In
this instance, as in the case Of ex Gov
ernor Hubbard's daughter, who mar
ried her fathers coachman, the young
lady is both beautiful and highly ac-
conplished, and her lover, the coach
man, is young and good looking, but
very illiterate. 1t Is said to be acase OF
love at first sight. Be- that as 1t may,
the couple carried op their courtiDg 30
ardently and boldly that eventually one
of the gentleman's neighbors dropped
him a note through the mail asking
him If he knew of The conduct OF his
daughter.
The father was astounded upon learn
ing Of the affair and at once called his
daughter to an account. She acknowl-
edged that she knew the coachman and
had spoken to him on several occasions,
but this was all. Her explanation de-
ceived him SO thoroughly that he cea-
sed to watch her movements for time.
Subs quently, however, he found
among his daughters effects during
her temporary absence from her home,
several letters from the love-smitten
Jehu which still further openec his
eyes and confirmed all that had been
written concerning the couple by his
friend. The result was stormy inter-
view, during which the young lady's
mother was so affected that She is said
to have tainted.
| Soon after this. and despite tho vigi-
lance OF the parents Of the young lady
she clandestinely met her lover, and
arrangements were perfected for theil
marriage, which were frustrated by
the appearance on the scene of the
father when the couple>were on theiI
way TO the residence Of minister whom
til, had engaged to perform the cere
mony. The coachman was discharged
bv hes mistress and the young lady was
tak.cl to her fathers country residence
where she is now reported to be closely
watched to prevent her from. joining
her lover.
Prior to this unfortunate affair the
yoang lady had been receiving ths
eoen pany of a young, wealthy and tai
ented physician, who had asked hei
hand in marriage aud had met with
favorable response The shock pro
duced by this affair has nearly crazsd
him. and he has si,tc-, by the advice o.
friends, started oa voyage around th'
world.

Remtm,scemce Of u GaEsbler.

John Watts, xho died in Philadel-
phia last week, was in his day one OF
the most noted gamblers whe made
their trade notorious on the mississippi
river. Althou.h he professed to be
"a man of honor he was by no means
OF the very b,st morals, and lie did not
object to take advantage Of his fellow
man. For instance With his friend
and accomplice he would board boat
at Louisville, and, scanning the passen'
ger list, pick out for his victims some
old card players of wealth with whom
he was personally acquainted. To
these people he would go very quietly
and say OF his accomplice, There is a
man who plays high, and we can beat
him you join with me and we'll do
it," The victim agreed, the party was
made up, bat Watts always succeeded
in regulating success the wrong way
for his victim, and thus the would-be
bitter was often bitten.
Once he was accused Of swindling in
that way, the charge being made in the
heat of play by man from whom
Watts accomplice had just won $l0,-
600. as THAI your opinion ?" he quiet
ly asked. "Yes, sir; that's what |
think reared the loser; "you swim
died me, and stigmatize you as a
scoundrpl." The hour was late, and
only the watchman and the party en-
gagged in playing heard the charge, but
all of them drew back and held their
breath, for they wers sure Jack I"
would take a life to wipe out the insult
1t is said that he had done that thing
~ will give yoa $1,000 right here if
you will not make that opinion any
further public,' said Watts, drawing
forth his pocket book. "No, sir, do
not want the money you cannot buy
my silence with money" Then Watts
smiled in his wicked way and held a
pistol in one hand and the money III
the other, and said quietly. as before ::
"My friend, for the suppression OF
your opinion offered you $4,000. You
refused. Now offer you that amount
of money and your life. "Do you ac'
cept p The man looked into Jacks
cold, steel gray eye and what he read
there was convincing. He took the
money and his life and kept silent.

several times in the year and kept tal

seeded to clover. Suckers and sprouts
are removed as soon as seen; the borers
are watched and followed with xigor
Wires are used to reach them in theil

EnfOrcing the ku nday Laws fa Ness
York.

Orders were issued to the various New
York police captains to enforce the eK-
else Laws on Sunday, and the captains
were warned that if liquor saloons in
their precincts were found open they
would be held too strict accountability.
The saloon keepers were warned OF the
proposed raid and the consequence was
that they kept sharp lookout; side
doors and rear doors were the only
means of entrance to most of the saloons
and some few places were closed up al
together. Nine liquor dealers were ar
rested at the Jefferson Market court and
four of them held in 500 bail, the
others being discharged. During the
day some forty to fifty saloon keepers
or their bar tenders were arrested and
locked up.

AN OLD AND PATRIOTIC APPLE
TREE.

New Haven Palladium.
An apyle-tree standing in Mr.. De-
loss Hotchkiss' door-yard, in the
northwestern part of the Town of
Cheshire, is thought to be the largest
in the United States. Its age can be
traced by family tradition to 14O
years at least, and it may be twenty or
twenty-five years older. 1t is at the
present time of symmetrical shape,
and the trunk isnearly round, without
a scar or blemish on it. There are
eight large branches five of these Mr..
Hotchkiss says, have been in the habit
of bearing one year and the remaining
three the next but, when the Centen-
nial year came, the old tree, which
must have attained the prime of ordi-
nary apple-tree life before the nation
was born. expanded its blossoms into
complete crown of glory, and bore
fruit all over the tree. Mr.. Hotchkiss
has had a crop of eighty-five bushels
of fruit in one year from the five
branches, and his predecessor had har-
vested a crop of Ito bushels from the
same five branches. The dimensions
of the tree are: Girth, fourteen feet
six inches hight. sixty feet; and the
spread of the branches is six rods.
