cassfull, they overdid the matter. Three
times his wife asked Bnrney to put up
the window, and three times he gave
her a very surly reply. The last time
he was so savage that the bride, forget
ting for an instant that his roughuess
was only assumed, allowed the tears to
spring to her eyes, AT this instant u
gentleman sitting in the opposite seat
arose, stepped over, put up the window,
and then looking Burney fair in the
eyes, he said:
"Sr you are brute. No man with
the least spark of honor would act to-
wards a woman as you have done to the
lady sitting by your side"
Sir said Burney, springing TO his
feet, "who are YOU addressingp'
I'm addressing you" said the man,
firmly. "You are bic mar, sir, but
you are coward, and if | hear youtalk
to your wife again as you have talked,
III break your Jaw
Eyes. and Wen help him." shouted
four men, sprnging to their feet.
Alarmed at the sensation they had
succeeded in creating, the newly-mar-
ried couple kept remarkably quiet until
they reached New York. AT the hotel
Burney again overshot the mark, His
conduct towards his wife was so surly
that he attracted the attention of three
divorce lawyers. Seeming u probable
job, these birds of prey presented their
cards to the bride, and tried to per-
suade her that e,ought to get divorce
at once. The handsome room-clerk also
sympathized deeply with the wife.
Finding her alone, he urged her to get
rid of "that brute of husband by
clipping with him.
The last experience satisfied the pair
with trying to initiate old married peo-
pie. AS quickly as possible they got
away from that hotel, and during tho
balance of the trip they allowed the
warm ardor Of young lovers to assert IL.

One day while Bret Harte and Angus.

said
"What on earth makes you walk so

"To avoid being run into," replied
Harte, grimly. "The fact is your

"Ahl" replied the English journalist,
serenely.
Later in the day they Glanced to be
passing the Langham Hotel, whereupon
Sala suddenly seized Harte by the arm
and hurried him to the opposite side OF
the street.
"What the deuce does this mean
Did you see q ghost or your tailor?"
"Well, no." said Sala, innocently, as
he removed his hat and inspected it
anxiously, "but the fact is that as we
both wore silk hats il wouldn' ttlo for us
