Heart and Purse OF Gold.
Montreal star

Thirty six years ago there lived in
that pleasant little town down the river
called Sorel very little it was then-a
youth and maiden. The name of the
youth was George Beaupre, the name of
the maiden Mary Ann Pearce. They be-
longed to families of moderate circum-
stances. He, with the strength and de-
votion of honest young manhood, loved
this maiden, and wooed her with that
earnestness which only such lover can
He was given every encouragement; was,
some say, actually accepted; was con-
graduating himself, at least, oil the
smooth coursing of trAe love, when sud
denly rival appeared and everything
for him turned black. The rival was
one, Jacob Savage, of the same town.
Pretty soon she and Savage were married
and settled down in the place, and then
young Beaupre's hope died out. He tried
to work on as before, but could not. He
closed up his business, settled up his af.
fairs and started 10 the far West, toward
which so many adventurous spirits were
about that time shaping their course.
From that day to within a few weeks
ago he had not set foot in this part Of
Canada. He had worked hard. saved
carefully, prospered and laid up property
worth at least 100000. He had never
married. He was getting up toward IA
years of age. Several weeks ago he took
an idea to come back once more to see
mis- friends and he started East. lie

An Opinion Of Langtry.
Trenton Times

Mrs. Langtry is disappointment. Even
the person who goes not expecting to see
the most beautiful woman in the world
or the most accomplished actress, is dis
appointed. He sees right around the stage
in the boxes and in the orchestra chairs,
women of finer form and face than the
Jersey Lily. She is pretty woman. That
is about all, unless il be added that she is
refined and graceful in her actions.
Mrs. Langtry looks the pretticst when
her side face is turned towards the OBJ
server. Her features are very regular and
clear cut The side face view therefore
does her most Justice. Her face is not at
all striking. Ii is almost commonplace.
Her mouth completely spoils her looks,
Ii is large, which might not necessarily
detract from her beauty, and her upper
lip has strange and rather repulsive
curl. This curl changes what ought to
be a pleasing smile into a decidedly un-
pleasant feature.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Langtry persists in
keeping her mouth in that uncomely at
titude most of the time. Her hair is
redeeming feature, however 1t is OF a
golden brown hue, and strikingly hand
some. If the audience were permitted to
see only her side face and hair they might
deem her really beautiful but since it
takes all the features to make the face,
Mrs. Langtry cannot be considered beau

A Magazines supplies.

AN 'thNh
Between four and five hundred manu-
scripts are received each month by the
Century, nearly thiee-fifths of which are
in verse A little more than half as many
are sent TO st. Nicholas, and the propor-
ton of verse is lower, being about one
half. 4 record is kept Of the incoming
and outgoing of every manuscript, and
since the magazines cannot PRINT more
than 0v It of the 700 or 500 received
month, It IS apparent that the sitting
process requires great care, and is the
chief burden of the editors. 1t is COM
mon for persons Of little experience in
writing for publication to ask the editor
to give the inclosed manuscript fair
reading. and often it is added that a crit
iri-m of the production would be received

sirOus of encouraging young writers who
show freshness and originality. But
inJunctious to read manuscripts are not
needed. The editors would be false TO
the first duty of their trust if they should
allow single article u leave the office
without a careful examination. BY a
first reading the wheat is separated from
the chah. The selected manuscripts are
then usuallyput to the test Of two or even
three readings by different editors, who
aim 10 treat the authors OF Indifferent
manuscripts with the same courtesy that
is due TO the old contributor or the cxpe-
rienccd writer. Not all poorly-writtcn
articles are rejected. nor all good ones
accepted. While editors are continually
suggesting topics TO experienced writers
and to persons having special knowledge,
many Of the best articles printed come
unsolicited. In word, an article must
be fresh in idea, mastery in treatment,
or novel or important in information, to
meet with acceptance when so Inany
active minds are seeking expression in
print.
The editors always have three issues
of the magazines in hand. and must at
the same time keep in view their prob

months.

His Terrible Fate.
Houston Dispatch.

Houston DISPATCH
Sensational articles appear in n special
edition of the Houston Daily Post this
afternoon, written by W. P. Zuber, of
Grimes county, protesting to give the first
full account of the massacre of the Tex
an garrison in the celebrated fortress of
the church of the Alamo, at San Antonio,
March 6, 1886. Zuber says he got the ac.
count from Mexican fifer known in Tex
as as Polin. who was with the Mexican
army at the time of the capture of the
Alamo. Polin says that after the Mexi-
can soldiers had taken the fort, scaled the
walls and put the garrison to the beyonet
or sword, Santa Anna, accompanied by
members of his staff, entered the fort and
viewed the Texans slain. Polin, being
ffer and privileged character, entered
with Santa Anna, and Immediately be-
hind the greet Mexican dictator. Santa
Anna ordered the citizens of San Anto-
Mo to pick out the corpse of Col. Travis.
tho Texan commander, which he ran his
sword through. After Santa Anna had
retired from the fortress two Mexican Of
ficers with number of soldiers entered
and proceeded to pile up the bodis of the
dead Texans, in order to buTe them. In
the search for corpscs they discovered
the celebrated Texan patriot, Col James
Bowie, in secluded apartment OF the
fortress, lying sick upon stretchers. One
of the officers looked at the sick officer
and asked the other officer if he knew
him. The latter said he thought he did
and that it was the infamous Bowie The
officers then berated Bowie for fighting
against the Mexican government, after
having married respectable Mexican
lady. lie denounced them for fighting
under a tyrant like Santa Anna. They
ordered him to shut his mouth, and Bowie
said, Never, for your sort" Then"
said the senior officer. "we will relieve
YOU ofyour tongue" They then had sol
diers take knives and split open his
mouth, cut off his tongue, and throw his
body, still writhing, upon pile Of corps
es. The latter was saturated with cam
phene, n match was stuck into the COM
bustible fluid, and tall pillar OF flame
Immediately shot up, and one of the
American officers, pale and trembling
said to his companions: That fire takes
Bowie's soul up To God"
This is the first account OF the last mo-
ments of Col. Bowie ever published.
