tain death, and his honor would not permit
him TO break his word, even for the being
he worshipped. The sad day of separation
finally arrived, and the two devoted lovers
parted, possibly never 10 meet again I'm this
world.
This is the sad story told in brief by the
old coachman who related his tale with
tears in his eyes.
"Yes, sir" said the old fellow, "she has
been "A different girl ever since. They had
only known one another a short time, but

said that when the lieutenant came TO bid
her good-by il took two of his brother off,

what she wants, but her mother would start
for the spot where the Jeanette was lost If
her daughter would ask it.
"How old is she ?h
"She was nineteen last October, but to
look at her now you would think she was
at least thirty
The young lady is well known in this city,
and up to within the past two years was
one of the brightest and most beautiful of
Los Angeles bellies. Her name is suppress
ed for the present, and her unfortunate love
affair is known TO but few, as the family
have made every effort TO keep IL quiet.

third boat with the gallant lieutenant and
his brother officers will yet be saved.
This is probably one Of the saddest stories
that has ever been chronicled on the Pacific
coast. The young lady's sad history is very
similar to Lady Franklin's, and she will un-
doubtedly receive great sympathy from the
feminine portion of the whole country.
