but he was otherwise unhurt.
80, Karl, Karl, how earnest thou

Malchcn, as she tore off her apron to
stanch his wound.
"Mein Colt, it was for thee'' sniv-
eled the unhappy Karl. "These men
are my friends; we had all come for a
lark and meant to carry thee off; for 1
hoped thy too-obstinate father would
consent of necessity to our marriage.
Oh, oh, my earr'
"Peace, Karl; but oh, how foolish of
thee" sighed Malchen. Chow couldst
thou think that nine men were required
to carry me Off"
"Mein Colt, ] thought thou vast ro-
mantle" was all that Karl could say
between two squeaks, caused by the an
guish in his ear.
One is sorry to say that the tribunals
of Bavaria took one-eyed view of the
affair, and wanted to sentence Karl for
burglary; but the attitude of poor NAL
chen had been so heroical that King
Louis II. sent for her to Munich, and
having decorated her with the Cross OF
Civil Merit, asked her what he could dc
to please her.
"Pardon my Karl, and give him 6

His Majesty pulled a slightly WY
face at the mention of dover, but court
iers were present. so he gave his royal
promise. "Thou wouldst marry man

"Sire, he lost his other for me-" re-
sponded Malchen, drying hereyes.
"Well, this is queer stoy," said

WOOing and Winning in Greenland.

WHEN the Danish missionaries had
secured the confidence of the Green
landers marriage was made religious
ceremony. Formerly the man married
the woman by force. One of the mis-
sionaries writing in his journal de-
scribes the present style of courtship
as follows: The sutton coming to the
missionary, said: 81 should like to
have a wife" "Whom?'' asked the
missionary. The man names the wom-
an. "Hast thou spoken to her?"
Sometimes the man will answer, eyes!
she is not unwilling, but thou knowest
womankind." More frequently the an
swer is, "No." "Why not?'' "It is
difficult; girls are prudish. Thou must
speak to her." The missionary sum-
mons the girl, and after little CONVEX
sation. says, 60 l think it is time to have
thee married" 81 won't marrv!'
" What pityi / had sutton for thee.'
"WhomP'' The missionary names the
man who has sought his aid. He is
good for nothing! / won't have himr'
But" replies the missionary, "he is
a good provider; he throws his harpoon
with skill, and he loves thee" Though
listening to his praise with evident
pleasure the girl answers, 81 won't
have himr' "Well, won't force thee.
[ shall find wife for such a clever fell
low" The missionary remains silent,
as though he understood her No" to
have ended the matter. At last, with
sigh, she whispers, "Just as thou
wilt have it." "No," replies the cler-
gyman; as thou wilt; III not persuade
thee" Then with deep groan comes

A New Hampshire Yankee a Russian
Admiral.

How a Meredith IN. H.) boy became
Russian Admiral makes an entertain
ing romance. The son of the Rev.
Slmons Finley Williams, a celebrated
Massachusetts clergyman, called to
Meredith in 1890, ran away from La
coma employer, because the latter
thrashed him for spending his evenings
with the girls. He took, also, $500 be-
longing to his chastiser, who pursued
him to Portland, reaching there two
days after the youngster had shipped
on Russian bark. The vessel was at
tackled by pirates, but the boy of sew
enteen, with the assistance of two sail
ors, mounted an old swivel, filed it
with iron scraps, and sank two boat
loads of the buccaneers, thus saving
his ship. For this the Gear trained
young Williams up in the royal navy,
OF which he became the head his title
being Count Zincherschoff. He subse-
9uently visited this country and paid
the Laconia man his $500 and interest,
al IN gold, saying he should return to
Russia an honest man.

A Most Brutal Exhibition.

HE fight between 'Patsy Brennan, ="

took place in an old stable, and among

the House of Delegates, a very promi-

men. Brennan stripped to the waist.

was watching him too closely to be
thrown off his guard. All this time
the crowd in the barn were almost
frantic with excitement, yelling at their
favorites and encouraging hound and

This time Brennan was successful. He
caught the dog by the neck and kicked

THE MOUNTALN ROAD.


ONLY glimpse of mountain road
That followed where river flowed;
Only glimpse-then on we passed,
Skirting the forest dim and vast.
] closed my eyes. On rushed the train
Into the dark, then out again.
Startling the ng-birds as it flew
The wild ravlnes and gorges through,
But, needing not the dangerous way
Oerhung by sheer cliffs, rough and gray,
l only saw, as ia dream,
The road beside the mountain stream.
No smoke eurled upward in the air,
No meadow lands, stretched broad and fair;
But towering peaks rose far and high,
Piercing the clear, untroubled sky.
Yet down the yellow, winding road
That followed where the river flowed,
saw a long procession pass,
As shadows over bending grass.
The young. the old, the sad, the gay,
Whose feet had worn that narrow way,
Since first within the dusky glade
Some Indian lover woed his maid;
Or silent crept from tree to tree
Spirit of stealthy vengeance he!
Or breathless crouched while through the brake
The wild deer stole his thirst to slake.
The barefoot school boys rushing out
An eager, crowding, roistorous rout
The sturdy lads the lassies gay
AS bobohnks IN merry May;
The farmer whistling to his team
When first the dawn begins to CLEAN;
The loaded wains that one by one,
Drag slowly home at set of sun;
Young lovers straying hand in hand
Within fair enchanted land;
And many a bride with lingering feet:
And many a matron calm and sweet;
And many an old man bent with pain,
And many solemn funeral train;
And sometimes red against the sky
An army's banners waving high.
All mysteries of life and death
To which the spirit answereth,
Are thine, O lovely mountain road,
That followed where the river flowed.
