How He Turned The Tables on Her

An awful case of the consequences
of refusing young mans honorable
love is reported on the West Side, San
Francisco. a really nice young man
fell in love with handsome girl, the
only daughter of handsome and well
preserved widow of thirty eight, and
offered her marriage. She ridiculed
him because he was twenty-siX, said
he was Old enough to be her father
and 80 on, and with her taunts goaded
him 10 such a state of frenzy that he
swore he would be fearfully revenged.
Accordingly he proposed to and mar
ried the wretched girls mother. Now

stout leather boots two sizes too large
for her and go to bed at 8 p. NJ, and
escheW the theatre, chocolate cara
mels, ice cream, and, in fact, every
thing else that makes life worth living
for, her steptather's nominal object
being that when she grows up she

man as her mother, the compliment
implied in this inducing the mother to
second him enthusiastically. When a
young man comes round to see that
wretched girl her step-father bounces
him down the front steps throws his
Lat after him, and tells the wretched
girl the young man is not fit COM
paniOn for her, and that he is as So
fictitious for her future as he would be

sible, he makes that wretched girl

WHICH TELLS HOW DONALDSON PI
ISHED.

WHICH TELLS HOW DONALDSON PER-
ISHED.
On August 10, 1875, Donaldson, the
daring aronant, and a journalist
named GrimwoOd, made balloon as
ccnsion in some western city. While
sailing among the clouds they were
overtaken by q hurricane and were
dashed into one of the great lakes.
Nothing definite has been known OF
how they perished until the following
discovery was made in Chicago Thurs.
day, which was sent to the National
Associated Press:
Chicago, Oct. 28.-Among a lot of
old bottles which We're being cleaned
in liquor store here yesterday, one
was found which contained a card,
water soaked and yellow, Oh which
was written the following message:
THE hurricane is upon us. Our
sand is all exhausted. A few moments
and the balloon will he in the water
Tell Barnum to give the balance of
my salary to Molly. Good bye. Mr..
Grimwood behaves nobly.
[Signedl DONALDSON.
The writing was dim but legible.
The signature was carefully compared
with one which Donaldson had writ
ten, and they were found to agree in
every important particular, almost the
only difference being the signature on
the card which was hastily scrawled.
Several persons familiar with Donald
sons handwriting pronounce the card
genuine. Among others was d. H.
Thomas, who was Donaldson's press
agent when he made his last ascension.
He believes the note to be genuine and
explains that the Molly referred to
was Barnum's highest salaried hurdle
rider to whom Donaldson was engaged.
Her name was Maggie Taylor, but
Donaldson gave her the pet name of
Molly. The lot of old bottles among
which the one containing this note
was found, had been purchased of a
junk dealer, who says they were
gathered about the city in 1875
