Elliott, wealthy farmer of Knox, Me-,
who died there on July Is. Among the
legatees are two grandsons who share
equally with the children, but who are
hampered with the following provision:
s. further bequeath and say that if
Charles or George B. Elliott, legatees
above named, or any one of my grand
children Though yet unborn) or their

MISS SMITHS MONEY.

THE following story is told by John
L T. Morris, who is an experienced
detective of Springfield, Ohio.
Not long ago there resided in Frank
lin county wealthy old maid, Miss
Sabina Smith. By inheritance she was
the possessor of large farm, on which
was an old-fashioned, though comforta-
BILE, dwelling house. She was reputed
have good square bank account.
"How old is she ?"
swell, on the shady side of so, but
she had weakness like all old maids,
not for kittens, poodles or canaries, but
for children. She had raised several
orphan girls, who are now well settled in
life. In 1865 she adopted six-year-old
black-eyed girl, bright as button, named
Mollie McCann, whose father had fallen
in battle while fighting for his flag and
country, while her mother, crazed with
grief, pined and faded away. Mollie
soon learned to love her new mother,
and from prattling maid in short
clothes and pinafores she in due time
girl, and at IS was the belle of every
rustic gathering-the pretty Miss Mollie
Mccain, over whom the boys revel
while the girls envied. To all her ad-
mirers she turned deaf ear, and with
a pretty toss of the head, and merry
twinkle of her roguish eye, bade them
'be off, and not bother her. "
Z" Miss Smith was sensible; knew
Mollie would probably marry and have
a home of her own some day, so she
neither discouraged her fondness for
society nor harped upon the miseries of
welded life in the maiden's ear, but
when she came back from the State Fair
at Columbus in 1876, and told her adopted
mother of the gentleman that she had
met, his attentions and good qualities,
Miss Smith was not pleased, nor did she
hesitate to frown her displeasure and
advised her ward to turn a willing ear
to the many suitors of the neighborhood
instead of seeking In far-off fields that
which was nearer home.
"But Mollie, like many another, was
struck on travelling man, and she car
ried on a secret correspondence with him
througha lady friend for a long time,
until at last they were engaged.
Miss Smith and Mollie were the sole
occupants of the house. The bedrooms
were four in number, two Of which
were used as spare rooms, one being
occupied by Miss Smith containing
two beds, MolIie occupying the
one and Miss Smith the other. The

up into the pulpit, planted his little
melodeon on his knees, and struck up
ridiculous, song known as "The Ohio
Girl" Sunlight camein with the rich
melody of the chaplain's voice and the
humor of his song. The surgeons took
heart, and life seemed to come back to
the battered and homeslck men. But
the austere chaplain In the middle of
the house called out, "Chaplain Little,
you ought to be ashamed of yourself to
sing such stuff to men who ought to be
preparing for DEATH" Whereupon a
colonel, who had just had a leg amputa-
ted, raised his head and addressed the
last speaker I" Chaplain Blank, wish
had two legs, SO that could kick
you out of doors.''.

Wedding Anecdotes.

TT is not more than twenty-fiveor thir-
i ty years since the rich pineries of the
Chippewa, in Wisconsin, drew scores, of
young men from the older settled por-
tions of the country, to work out their
fortunes in then almost unbroken will
derness. A few venturesome spirits
brought their families and settled here,
and now then fair white maiden came
along, or, it may be, that in other re-
gions, she would have been considered
only passably fair, but here with only
dusky maidens for her rivals, the few
pale faced girls have no lack of admirers,
or of suitors for their hearts and hands.
In those days there came from civil
lied regions, family having in their
care ar adopted daughter called Mary.
Though she lived in log cabin and
wore moccasins, no city belle could have
asked, for lovers more numerous or
more ardent. AT last after as many
difficulties as would furnish modern
novelist with dozen thrilling chapters,
she was won by young man whose
name we will call Jim, for short,'
lshortness of names being a prevailing
characteristic of the early pioneers,) and
the twain were anxious to become one.-
At the risk of offending some who
would like to hear of the courtship,
will pass at once to the wedding. A

Select Poetry.
WE ARE NOT MISSED.

If you or l
To-day should die,
The birds would sing as sweet tomorrow
The vernal spring
Her flowers would bring,
And few would think of us with sorrow.
Yes, he is dead
Would then be said;
The corn would floss, the grass yield hay,
The cattle low,
And summer go,
And few would heed US pass away.
How soon we pass
How few, alas
Remember those who turn to mold
Whose faces fade
With autumn's shade,
Beneath the sodden church-yard cold
Yes, it is So
We come, we go
They hail our birth, they mourn us dead
A day or more,
The winter o'er,
Another takes our place instead.

l stumbled upon small stairway lead
ing to the garret, the door of which was
acommon trap door securely fastened 10y
paddock, to which was attached three
links of chain.
"Give me the key" 1 said to Miss
Smith, " to that trap.door up in the
attic"
"Oh, no use of looking there the keys
have been lost for over i've years, and no
one has ever been up there since.
There were cobwebs on the door, but
noticed that over the crack of the DOORS
edge they seemed to have been broken
away, caused by the door having been
recently opened. With All ak speedily
got the door open and saw large footsteps
in the, dust. By the aid of lamp L fol-
lowed the course of the tracks over the
boards which lay across the shaky raft
ers, to the farthest part of the garret,
where, over an old ross-beam, there
hung pair of old fashioned saddle bags.
The dust on the bags had been recently
disturbed. In one of the pockets found
disappeared on the night of the 3Oth of
May, the 1856 that was missed in the
summer of 1879, the $500 that was lost
in 1880, and, better than all, the rare old
gold coins upon which Miss Smith set
such store as an heirloom. l found
the money, but found $1,000 too much.
The mystery deepened. resolved upon
one thing and that was that Mollie must
know something about the money that
was bid under the carpet beneath her
bed. talked kindly to her, told her
that Mi ss Smiths money had all been
found, and urged her to tell me how the
$500 came under the carpet of her bed.
You will not believe me if tell you,
but if Miss Smith will go out will ex-
plain. l put that money there; it was
my lovers. He had saved it out of his
wages and given it to me to keep. 1
destroyed his letters for fear my aunt
would find it out. There's the story"
But how did t he old lady's money
get into the garret ?'
"She carried it there herself She was
somnambulist and walked in her
sleep"
How did you prove it, Mr.. Morris
Did the old lady let you occupy the bed
room and catch her ?''
"Oh, no. got the old lady to take
off her shoe and stocking and place her
No. 6 foot down on piece of white pa
per. With lead pencil marked out
her foot on that sheet of paper. With
a pair of scissors carefully cut out the
exact shape of the old lady's foot, which
fitted exactly in the tracks in the dust
on the garret boards. Besides that Mol
lies foot was much smaller, she only
wearing a No. q shoe, and would not
fit the track. l also on careful examina-
ton found tracks of cob webs in the
frill of the old lady's nightcap, while
Mollie wore no night-cap. So you see
proved it by both ends-the old lady's
head and by her feet. explained all to
the satisfaction of the old lady, she paid
me my money, and predict wedding
soon at the Smith mansion, with Mollie
McCann as the BRIDE"

cy- The arrest and fning of G. A.
Cook for knocking down man for say
ing " he hoped to God Garfield would
die" recalls an incident that took place
in Cleveland sixteen years ago. On the
morning after Lincoln was shot a knot
of men were expressing their sympathy
with the victim, when an architect
named Husband broke out with am
glad Lincoln is shot, and l hope he is
dead by this time" The words nearly
cost him his life. 1t was only by the
most strenuous exertions he was saved
from the fury of mob he was severe
ly handled, despite the efforts of friends
to protect him. He was prominent
architect, and had built the county
Court House. On the corner stone of
this building can be seen the following

Housekeeping Hereafter

The new gifts OF invention to society
which are destined to work as great
revolutions 10 domestic affairs as the
grist.mill, the cotton-gin. and the
power loom did in their several days
are the telephone and the perfected
pneumatic dispatch. By aid of these
marvelously fitting devices, the severe
labors, the drudgeries, and the dirt.
making tolls OF housekeeping will be
taken from the home and consigned
to an organized establishment, and
there brought under subsection to
steam and electricity, to combined
effort and discipline. With these
magic appliances in use, the jealous
family sentiment will not antagonize
the innovatIon, but will favor it, since
the Erst step will be to erect a screen
between the household and the world,
directly promoting the domestic Sc
clusion which has been sought snd
preserved at such cost. The tele.
phone wire and the pneumatic tube
will preserve q secrecy as to family
affairs that the best servants cannot
emulate, and the centralized estsb-
lishment will defend the hone from
endless intrusions now constituting
one Of the gravest annoyances that
mistress and maid had to encounter.
II is fast becoming evident that a
change of some sort is an inevitable
necessity. Housekeeping. as now
conducted, is too big a job for those
who undertake to do it,-a fact prac.
tically realized in all households. Not
even the most favored are free from
danger of periodic breakdown in the
overtsxed machinery of domestic sd-
ministrstion, and the common expert.
ence is that the gearing runs anything
bnt smoothly at best. The one matter
of trouble with servants is becoming
such crying evil that it ia the frat
topic talked of whenever housekeep-
srs meet. and the public prints are
burdeDed with discussions Of remedies
and plans for obtaining better
"hslp." This agitation will presently
make it plain that the servant trouble
lies too Deep to be reached by changes
in the personnel of the service. It ia
not that cooks and chamber-m aids
are so greatly at fault as that too
much ia demanded from them. The
work to be done requires greater in
telligencs and ability than can be in.
duced to enter domestic seryics at
present.
Necessity commanding and oppor-
unity inviting. an attempt to institute
better methods OF housekeeping can
not long be delayed. The centripe-
tsl force of society, potent in COM
meIce and the arts, will pc permitted
again to modify the conduct of house
hold affairs; acting, ss heretofore, by
removing certain kinds of work from
the home, and making them the
basis OF new business. Tne kinds
of work to De trapsplanted are those
which bring dirt and litter into the
house, those which require or which
produce heat, and those which de-
msnd mans strength or an experts
skill. In plain words, the household
is to be relieved OF the heavy and
gross labors. and also the difficult and
trying Operations connected with
cooking, washing, ironing, heating,
and cleaning.-Septen6er Atlantic.
