Ca" An aged stranger surprised num-
ber of young ladies and gentleman in a
Pittsburg hotel a few evenings ago.
The party were in the parlor of the ho-
tel enjoying themselves with vocal and
instrumental music. During the even
ing an old man aged about 90 years,
dressed like farmer, and of very un-
gainly figure, with immense feet and
hands, entered the parlor. His strange
appearance excited the attention of the
company, and their interests was still
further awakened when he seated him
self at the piano and played large num-
ber of pieces, including Cheru bini's re-
QUEEN, with touch the delicacy, light
less and evenness of which were aston
ishing. After holding his audience
spell-bound for some time by his won
derful playing, the old man rose from
the piano, darted from the room and
disappeared. All efforts to ascertain
who he was or where he come from were
fruitless.

CB- Not one of the gosslps of Tarboro,
N. c., could see what on earth induced
pretty Rosa Turner to marry Jacob
Webber. Jacob was getting along in
years, his face was wrinkled and his
pocket-book was rather lean. Never
theless, as
Love looks not with the eye, but with the mind
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind,
perhaps Jacobs rugged honesty was the
matter which seasoned Rosa's admira-
ton. The marriage was consummated
in 1877, and the union continued salts
factorily until last winter. Then old
Jacobs jealousy led him to cage his
wife, who was not to be kept in a state
of bondage, for she ran away. Jacob
sued for q divorce. The case came up
at the present term of the Edgecombe,
N. c., Superior Court, and on Tuesday
of last week was decided in favor of the
plaintiff. The old man started out of
the courtroom. AS he reached the door
he caught wildly at the knob and an in
slant later fell over dead.
