Bound TO Have Her,
TYPO.

Detroit Free Press.
The old man Bendigo keeps a sharp
eye on his daughter Mary, and many
would-be lover has taken walk after
few minutes conversation with the hard
hearted parent. The old chap is struck
this time, however, and cards are out for
a wedding. After the lucky young man
had been sparkling Mary for six months.
the old gentleman walked in as usual,
requested a private confab and led off
with:
you seem like nice young man, and
perhaps you are in love with Mary?'
Yes I am was the honest reply.
Haven't said anything to her yet, have
you?'
EWell, no; but think she reciprocates
my Affections
Does, Ell? Well, let me tell you some
thing. Her mother died a lunatic, and
there's no doubt that Mary has inherited
her insanity
'Tm willing to take the chances re-
piled the lover.
sYes, but you see Mary has terrible
temper. She has twice drawn a knife on
me with intent to commit murder
sI'm used to that-got a sister just like
her, was the answer.
sand you know that I have sworn a
solemn oath not to give Mary cent OF
my property continued the father.
well, I'd rather start in poor and build
up. THERE'S more romance in it,
The old man had one more shot in his
earbine, and he said:
perhaps I ought to tell you that Mary
mother ran away from home with butch
er, and that all her relations died in tha
poorhouse. These things might be thrown
up in after years, and now warn you.
'Mr. Bendigo, replied the lover, 'I'v'
heard all this before, and also that yol
were on trial for forgery, had to juml
Chicago for bigamy, and served year il
the. State Prison for cattle stealing. Tn
going to marry into your family to Civ
you decent reputation. There m
: thanks-good-b
> Mr.. Bendigo looked after the youn
man, with his mouth open, and when h
= could get his jaws together he said'
:, Some hyena has gone and given m
IL away on my dodge!'

she can. But She Won't.

This is the way in which a Louisville
girl disposes of young man:
'sYou have asked me pointedly if can
marry you, and L have answered you
pointedly that can. I can marry a man
who makes love to different girl every
month. l can marry a man whose main
occupation seems to be to join in gaunt-
let in front of churches and theaters, and
comment audib1y on the people who are
compelled to pass through it. 1 can mar
ry man whose only means of support il
an aged father. l can marry a man whC
boasts that any girl can be won by tn
help of good tailor and an exper
tongue. 1 can marry such man, but
| w-o-n-'t."

From the South Bend Qnd.) Register.
We are permitted to publish the follow
ing private letter in relation to the Lead
vile mines:
LEADvILLE, Col, March 23d, '79.
MILTON V. BULLA: Dear Sir.-I wrote
you few days ago and promised you to
write again soon, and give you more of
the particulars of this mining camp. So
[ will tell you all I can.
We have been having very bad weather
for the past few days. It showed about
foot deep but has not been cold. The
snow is fast disappearing, and as for mud,
never saw the like. The mud seems to
stiffen up of nights, yet it does not seem
to get cold enough to freeze, and as soon
as the sun comes out in the morning, the
water commences to run and in less than
no time the mud is running in all direc-
tions. This is in the basin where Lead
| vile stands, yet on the mountaln-sides it
scarcely thaws any, for there the snow
lays from one to five feet deep.
l have been up nearly to timber line,
looking at the various mines, and find it
a hard task to examine the mineral at the
foot, and the mines are scattered from the
foot hills to the top of the snow capped
mountains, which is far above the timber
line, and it being such a hard task to un-
dertake to explore this vast mountain re-
) gion, can only give you the experience
t of the many whom have met, and who
4 have explored this country when the
: snow was off and therefore can give only
s such information as you have already
> had through the newspapers,
/. NV opinion of this country 1 will give
you just as my honest convictions tell me
n and that is this: This is beyond doub
f one of the richest if not the very riches
e camp that has ever been discovered. l
e has aroused the curiosities of capitalist
:, all over the United States, and will at
- tract the notice of capital in foreign coun
% tries if it has not already done so.
l. Mines are selling here nearly every da,
d at prices often reaching the enormous sun
le of millions, and it is nothing uncommo
er to hear of mines being sold for 81 900
ly and from that up to 5000. Some {
Mt these mines that are sold may neve
III prove to be good, but if they all do, the
s; l can safely say that the world has neve
ly produced so rich a country as Colorado
at Again, as told you while in Sout
y Bend when 1 read the Leadville pape
which gave description of the form
le, ton of this country and the horizont
le- position of the mineral, that it would n
ed be long-lived camp. 1 am, now col
to firmed in my opinion then expressed, y
St. l think it will be good for several year
ct, as they keep making new discoveries
at the time, Notwithstanding the terrib

This is the heart of Garfield's great
speech in the House March 29th:
Gentlemen, addressing the Democratic
side of the House, we have tried to count
the cost. We did try to count it in 1861,
before we picked up the gage of battle;
and although no man could then forecast
the awful loss in blood and treasure, yet,
having started in, we staid there to vic
tory. We simply made the appeal to our
sovereign-to that great omnipotent, pub
lie opinion, in America-to determine
whether the Union should be shot to
death. And now, lawfully, in our right
and in our place here, we pick up the
gage of battle which you have thrown
down. and will appeal to our common
sovereign to say whether you shall break
down the principle of free consent in leg
islation at the price of starving the Gov
ernment to death. We are ready to pass
these bills for the support of the Govern
ment at any hour when you will offer
them in the ordinary way, and if you Of
fer these other measures as separate meas
ures, we will meet you in the spirit of fair
and traternal debate. But you shall not
compel us-you shall not .eoerce us-even
to save this Government, until the ques-
ton has gone to the sovereign to determ-
inc whether it will consent to break down
any OF its voluntary powers. And on
that ground, gentlemen, we plant our
selves.

GROWTH OF NEW YORK.-From the reports
of the building department of the city gov
eminent 1t appears that 1881 new buildings
have been erected at an estimated cost OF
1924, 1928, 405. The average number erected
each year was 1901, at an average cost OF
about $4,000. During the last eleven years
the average annual expenditure has been
nearly $26,000.000. Within that time the ter
ritorial area of the city has been increased
by the annexation of the Westehester district,
but the building operations In the annexed
wards have not been large. The Increase OF
buildings was constant during the four years
from 1867 to 1871, In which year the largest
number were erected. In the following year
there was large falling off, until 1878.
Since 1873 the increase has been small
but steady. The average estimated cost
was largest In 1878, and smallest last
year. The most expensive buildings
during the eleven years have been the
hotels two each year having been built at an
OF first-class dwellings, has been exceeded
only by that of tenement houses, the average
number each year having been respectively
$40 and $40. The average cost OF the first
class dwellings was $4,000, and that OF the
tenement houses $4,000. The largest num-
Der of both were built In 1871; but the average
cost of dwellings was highest In 1873, when It
exceeded S21, 900, while the cost OF tenement
houses has decreased from 5000 In 1868 to
about $1,000 last year. During the seven
