A BONANZA ROMANCE.

VIM $. O'Brien, the California
millionaire, declared on his deaths
bed that his only brother had passed
from earth in the city of Baltimore
as long ago as 1861. Nevertheless,
the will of the bonanza king showed
a bequest of $500, 600 to Pauline
O'Brien, beautiful girl whose uu

under whose roof she dwelt, had
been matter OF gossip in San Fran>
cisco. Pauline had been accustomed
to speak of the millionaire as Uncle
William, and when il became known
that her share was the same as those
received by the recognized nieces
the mystery deepened. After the
death of O'Brien, Pauline, in CONS
pany with an aged woman, who
proved TO be her mother, took o
flying trip TO Raleigh, North Caro-
lima, returning thence to San Fran.
cisco with an old, decrepid man.
Arrived again at the Golden Gate,
Pauline locked the old couple in
rooms 81 the Palace Hotel and an,

she had found her father, =. II.
O'Brien, who had never been worth
dime, claimed for him 81, 100000.
Her lawyer furnished the trustees Of
the estate with indisputable proof
that William 5, aud Patrick ii. were
brothers. Months passed and the
matter had nearly reached the courts
when compromise was effected
Under The comp omise the trustees
paid over to Pauline aud her mother

more careful education than was
usually bestowed upon the girls of

burn said that they might as well
confess the truth to MIR. and Mrs.
Holt, taking the consequences. Mary
was terrified by the idea. She had
always been obedient, and she knew
that her parents grief and disap-
pointment would be deep Rather
than go through the ordeal, she
poisoned herself to death with strych-

A SPLENDID WIFE.

We once knew man who was
always praising his wife. On the
corner, down the street, at the post
office, at the race -lrack, 10 the
skatir g-rink, at the theatre, IN the
saI-that is, a. the choir meeting,
be was always telling what happy
man lie was, just because he had
such splendid wife, and be talked
every man he met into a perfect
frenzy of envy about her. Well,
one winter morning when it was not
too light to make one appear overly
ostentatious, we sneaked into that
neighbours yard to steal fence board
for kindling, and had TO wait before
we could safely obtain it until that
mans wife came ont and saved a
couple OF armfuls Of wood, shoveled
out three snow paths, fed and
groomed the horse, and cleaned gu.
the cow-shed, and then when she
went into the house and we heard
her call to her husband fhat the sit~
ting room was warm enough for him
to dress if he wanted 10 get up now,
We were SO amazed that We forgot
VIVA. we we're waiting for, and went
back and kindled the fire with
