"By all means, Lloyd. And look
here, 1 am going to be married in u few
days, and if Teresina doesn't wish to re-
turn to that pleasant home of hers, I've
no doubt she will make an excellent at
tendant ON Lady Ardley in our coming
cruise about the Greek islands,"
Many thanks, my Lord"
On going ashore, Lloyd learned that
old Baldelli had been interrogated, with
the result that he now suggested the
possibility of her having drowned her
self that she occasionally walked in her
sleep; that he had found her door and
the window open on the morrow of her
disappearance. This was contrary TO
his statement Mt the Office, nor could her
body be found in the tideless water. He
refused 10 say anything further, and
was sent to jail to await his trial on sus-
piciol.
Lloyd readily obtained permission to
see him.
The old man, filled with rage and re-
morse, cried to him to " Begone but
dare not look in his face.
"Assassin, l know all |"
Baldelli covered in q corner, and said
nothing.
81 know all, and ] almost hesitate to
relieve your villainous mind from the
terror that agitates it. Under Gods
hand, but through no fault of yours, she
lives"
Lives" and his whole aspect
changed. "Then why am / here?
Curse their meddliug Who says l
murdered her? And you, fa,r-ftced
fool, what do You bluster here for?"
"Ge sly, gently, old man. There is
such Iillng as attempt to murder, for
which u considerable term at the galleys
is not infrequently given. Teresina lives,
and, SO far as the crime oil murder is
concerned, you are not guilty, by an ac-
cident. Now mean to make terms
with you. Listen: L witnessed your
dastardly attempt, and saved her life.
She will not return to you she will be-
come my wife she will bid youfarewell,
and will not be told of your wickedness ;
and she will carry out her intention for
your benefit, and give you the five thou
sand francs she promised you, though
you more richly deserve five years at
the galleys. If you consent to this,
good. If you refuse, 1 at once proclaim
you to be the attempted murderer of
your niece"
&" Maladetto! May every evil"
Enough. You are no fool, though a
great rascal.
The programme was carried out III Its
entirety. Baldelli was released on the
appearance of Teresina, who, alive to
some rascaiity on the part of her uncle,
was satisfied to receive from him G
scowling assent to her marriage with
Frank Lloyd.
After some months in the Mediterran-
can with Lady Ardley, she went to
England, her future home, as Mrs. Lloyd
and it was not till after the old mans
death that she learned the true story OF
the tragical event that might have
followed on her lucky hit at lotto.--

Undesirable Husbands.

The grumbling husband renders his
wife's existence as obnoxious as possible.
He will begin the day by abusing his
breakfast; and the man who scowls over
his coffee, eggs and the daily paper, may
be pronounced as not likely to improve
in temper as the hours advance. The
influence of grumbling woman is par
ticularly depressing; but that of man,
a chrouic grumbler, is worse. He will
take morose pleasure in nursing his
grievances. II you are enthusiastic over
music, painting, poetry, literature, or
any OF the arts that remove the cold
prosaism of matter of-fact reality, he
will endeavor to destroy your fervor and
happiness because it is beyond his COM
preheusion. All grumblers love their
creature comforts, and woe betide the
woman the grumbling husband has
made his miserable spouse, if the peas
are hard for his Sunday dinner, or the
potatoes waxy when he prefers foury
vegetable! What antidote can be offered
to resist the effects of these intolerable
croakers? None. It is in the very
blood and bones of the animal, irradic-
able as light The "gay husband" is,
DohSfIl, NOIob SDttilhtli Va AliC ldSC,
il possible. His wife, if sensitive, in
variably dies of systematic neglect; but
Griseldas are not uncommon in this MIN
teenth century of cynicism and license,
and takes good deal to kill a really
tough Griselda; SO she will meet him in
tears on the staircase about three o'clock
and help him to get to bed, if necessary.
He spends all his money on himself and
his doubtful pleasures. His wife grows
prematurely old; she is an old WON an at
forty. Friends and relatives tell her
that she should remonstrate with the
sinner ''You should see my husband,
one of these hard-voiced relations is fond
of saying. I'm none of your quiet,
submissive women, know my value. 1
speak my mind. / stand no nonsense. p"
Griselda, weeping, explains that when a
man puts his fingers to his ears and then
bangs the door-"Then bang it louder,
my DEAR" the woman of spirit suggests;
"and if he takes up a chair, you charge
with the table" But is anyone ASST
able who is heartless, vain and cruel?
Such people are safe from any evil under
the sun. Strange destinies which cou-
pie them with gentle natures.
The true northerner., 1881-10-07

A New York merchant was in Austin,
Texas, and Gilhooly got acquainted with
him soon after he arrived. During the
conversation Gilhooly mentioned that
he had recently bought pair of boots
very cheap from Nose Schaumburg, as
Nose was selling out below cost price.
"iWhat did he give you to take the
boots ?" asked the stranger.
"Give me to take the boots? Why,
had to pay him something, of course. "
"An j mean Is, that / know Moses
creditors in New York, and they say he
never paid cent for his goods, so if he
sold them for less than they cost him,
he must pay thepeople money to take the
goods off his hands, or else he is not sell
ing below cost price,"

"A prize offered by London paper for the b'
poem on the assassination of President Garfield
awarded TO the author Of the following:l
Veil, now, o, Liberty, thy blushing face,
At the fell deed that thrills a startled world;
While fair Columbia weeps In dark disgrace,
And bows in sorrow DER the banner furied.
No graceless tyrant falls by vengeance here,
Meath the wild justice OF the secret knife;
Nor red Ambition ends its grim career,
And expiatos its horrors with It's life-
Not here does rash Revenge misguided burn,
To free nation from tn assassin's dart;
Or reused Despair in angry madness turn,
And tear Its freedom from despots heart
But where blessed Liberty 30 widely reigns,
And peace and plenty mark q smiling land;
Here the mad wretch its fair white record stains,
And blurs its beauties with bloody hand"
Here the elect Of millions, and the pride
OF those who own his mild and peaceful rule
Here Virtue sinks and yields the crimson tide,
Beneath the vile unreason Of a fooli
But Heavens hand hath stayed the erring ball,
And spared life virtuous rare;
Yet that such deeds whispering world appan
Is Heavens mystery and mans despair.

AutOgraphic Telegraphy.

Cassell and Mayer are associated with
autographic systems of telegraphy that
deserve consideration, because out of
these systems there has come an Ameri-
can invention that promises much for
cheap rates. Two pcndulums, one at
each end of line, are set in motion by
clock-work. and the swing or beat OF
one is made TO electrically correct the
motion Of the other, so that they move

possible, TO get at the bottom of the
mystery, for queer things often happen
with these lotteries.
The result was that nobody had seen
or heard anything of Teresina, and old
Baldelli was unable TO account for her
disappearance, and maintained logged
silence on the subject, for the disap-
pointment TO his hopes and the con-
sciousness of guilt had completely un-
nerved him. All the circumstances
were so suspicious that the police felt
justified in connecting him with her dis
appearance, and, accordingly, he was
brought before the head of the police to
answer for himself.
In the meantime Teresina, having re-
covered consciousness, was gradually
brought to by the assistance of the stew
ardess. On being questioned by Lord
Ardley, she gave truthful account Of
the events of the previous night, but
said that, from the time she retired to
her room, her mind was complete
blank. She related with some blushing
and hesitation her conversation with her
uncle about the lottery-ticket, not for
getting his unaccustomed hberality in
giving her wine to drink to her good
luck.
"Pretty clear, my Lord, I think
drugged," ssid Lloyd.
Every likely. Horrid old villain
But what's TO be done now ?"
"With your permission, sir, 1 will go
into Naples and see what is going on."

Wilson, who have been prospecting in
Mineral and Kansas basins, northwest

have located several promising claims.
We were shown piece of galena
from their Kansas lode in Mineral

specimen was from the groupings.
The vein is six feet wide and the own.
ers are working it vigorously, feeling
confident that ere the snow flies they
will show up big bonanza.
VI. L. Harding and Others bought
the Belmont lead in Elk Basin on
Tuesday last for s2,o This claim
runs 600 ounces per ton and has a 4
foot vein with 67inch pay streak.
An adit has been cut on the vein II
feet long and shaft sunk in the adit
8 feet deep. The same parties own
the Alice H. and Silver Banner. The
two latter claims adjoin the Belmont
and show up we'll for the small amount
ofwork which has been done on them.
Brittle silver and some ruby has been
taken out at a depth of 20 feet.
The Kent tunnel which runs in 90
feet on Ruby mountain, has been very
much enlarged since last fall, and is
now being timberei in a good sub.

necessitates the adit to be tine whole

A glance at our personal column
this week will show that our hotels are
crowded with prominent men from
different parts of the country, men
who represent millions Of dollars, and
who come here with view of invest
ing. The general impression among
eastern capitalists of late is to come
out and examine property personally
before investing, as they have been
bit so badly by wildcat schemes and
stock jobbing operations ON the streets
81 New York and Chicago, which has
always been barrier to legitimate
mining transactions. We are glad to
see the change, as property in this
district will always bear inspection,
and We are always glad to see them
come and will always take pleasure in
showing them any mine in camp, as
there is not one withheld from the in
spection of visitors. SO far there is
not a company operating here but
what we can recommend as having
good properties, while On the other
hand if there is any swindling opera
tions going we will not be slow in
making it known. All We ask of our
eastern friends is for them to come
and examine our mines and if they
amt just as we represent why then it
is time to condemn us.
