. anywhere. Several notes, he IL
leGee, possed between them, aud two
pholograPhs, upon the hack Of one
which VaS WTitten. ''YOun until

Naturally, al this good fortune,
rial q alleged, turned Amweg's head
and he conllded the matter to two or
three dozen friends, besides writing
home 70 his mother that he Was going
to get married, and sending her one
Of The lettess which hec3ainls TO have
received. Ofcourse, the story spread.
Last Monday night Mis- Haxletine
and her mother left for the White
Sulphur Spring. In Virginia, where
they now are.
At thia point Amweg may be left
lor little while and the attention Q;
the reader concentrated on Nise Ha-
sletine's brother ard NJ. Fred Para
more, who, Il was explained, "had .
right 20 ct IN the psemises." These
two GeDtlemnea heard the staDries
aAoat aud concluded that the proper
cuurse to pursue was to punch Am
weg's eye, and Eor this purpnse the
sweet singeT was yesterday afternoon
beguiled up into Mr.. ParSnlose's Of
llce % The fourth floor of the building
On the southeast corner Of Fourth
and Pine. Mr.. HaxIetine had asked
NJ. Linn to be present - Amweg's
friend to 80 fair play. A. soon -
The party gathered, Nr. Hazle:ine
asked NJ. Amweg II be he'd eaid he
was going to marry his sister: Mr..
Amveg replied that that wss his In
tentio0. Haxletine then struck Am
veg with his nst, which was return
"a and the parties caught each other
by the hair and swung round and
rnund - though prseticing . new
Eangled german. Ar. ParansOre In
the m,eantinle produced . c0Whi1e,
which be had bought f0r the 0cca-
sion. and was waiting for somebody's
panis to ut tight 20 that he could
have . little q the pie himself, when
be was collared by Nr. linn, who r.
marked that one 81 . time wae enough
for Mr.. Amweg. OF course Nr. Par.
amore resented this Interference, and
lor q time there Was Q double shuttle.
n which much hair, many collar but
tons, and eonsidesa6le temper were
lot. When everyday was tired Of
tie circus they oil drew of and b.
ean to disevss the matter.
"YO0 know you must be lntstok-
en-" said viii Hazletine; ''yOu may
Be hoaest In what you believe, but
ny sister eceld not have writtes ~"
any letters."
':But I've got the letters"
"Where::'
''Out at my homc."
He was compelled to give Haxie-
tine written order to search through,
his trunks, and that young gentle
man soon returned k'Oktng very
nsuch anDoyed and bringing two let
ten and TIVE photographs. The
young lady's friends still declared
that there WIS some mistake-tIlat
Amweg haa been imposed upon BY
one Of the Hazietine servants, and lie
vss asked to come out to the house
and re n he could not identify one
n the girls there. On the way out
Has)etine asked him to deocrilse the
posi;iou Of the furniture In the par.
1or II he really had been there, and
he did this very CORRECTLY. At the
ho,a.e Hazletine snnsn,oned one Of
the servants, . very pretty laundress,
upsaairs, and asked Amweg II there
vas not the girl he had met. "NO,"
he replied, 1T was Aiss Nellie Ha-
sletine that n,et, her whose photo
Rrnph you have there" No amount
81 auestiouing, no threats could turn
him tIUu, his story, and the idea wxs
el,andaned. and the party hroke up
on the Naxletine DIOR step. All four
Of the gentlemeu were pretty badly
y raspled up from the fuss at Para
