Cupid's Kiss.

Twas as she slept that Cupid came
His bow and arrow stalking,
That she might feel his power in dreams
Who scorned his weapons wax ng.
As DER her sleeping form he poised,
The staff that oft had missed her,
Her beauty touched his roguish heart
Tie only stopped and kissed her.
Since when, upon her fair, soft cheek,
Loves amorous imprint keeping,
A charming dimple marked the spot
Where Cupid kissed her, sleeping.

AmelioratiOn of the Old and Infirm.
Charleston, August 8.-Mayor Courtney an
nounced to the city council the settlement of
the interest OF the city with the estate of VIM.
Euston, who died here in 1860, leaving prop
erty valued at half a million dollars. Euston
was native of Canterbury, England, and had
contemplated, throughout his life, the endow-
lnent of a charitable institution, similar to the
well known hospital for poor brethren in his
native town. BY his will, he gave the whole
income OF his estate to his widow, Mrs. Eus-
ton, during her life, subject to the payment of
certain requests and annuities upon her death,
and that after the annuities, the whole estate
was to 60 to the city of Charleston to build
hospital for old and infrm persons, excluding
!unatics. The necessary qualifications must
be poverty and good, honest character.
The object, in the words of the will
~ more to make old age comfortable
months ago, Mayor Courtney opened nepo-
tiations with Mrs. Euston, looking to settle
ment that would put the city in position to
erect and maintain hospital at once. Under
the settlement that has been made, the CITY
has just received two thousand dollars in cash
and real estate, which is available at once,
and the further sum Of two hundred thousand
dollars has been vested in the trustees for the
payment o. certain annuities, the annual sur
plus, if any, going to the city, when the
special sum with the last annuity falls due.
The management OF the whole sum is vested
in twelve trustees, who hold Office perpetually,
and serve without compensation. The hos
pital will be known as the William Euston
home, and consist, under the terms of the will,
OF rows of subs antial brick cottages. The
city has bought, as site. eight acres of land
in the northern part of the city, and in the
center will be placed bronze statue Of Will
liam Euston.

Death of a Noted Millionaire

Jcan Bennington, famous for his
wealth-more for that which was Tor
cibly taken away from him than Tor
that which was left-died at bis nome
in Greenville. Thursday morning, aged
eighty one years, of pneumonia. Ihls
event will bring to mind the then
greatest event in the annals OF burgla-
ry. the Benninghof robbery OF hfteen
wears ago, which was committed IN
the oil regions, where the deceased
then resided with his ia mily, on the
farm that flowed wealth into his pocket
faster than be could take care OF 1t, ana
of about 5000, 900 of which the bold
road agents relieved him. The news
paper student will recall the tactics OF
the robbers, how they surrounded the
honse then entered, gagged the old man
and other members of the family pres
ent. and proceeded at their leisure to 60
through his strong box, making the
immense haul above indicated. The
intruders got away with their plunder'
and as far as it's history is known,
lived TO enjoy it. A large portion OF 1t
is now doing service on the Western
plains IN the cattle business. After
the robbery Mr.. Bennington came
here with his family to live, and has
been useful citizen, especially 10
those in need of money.
Privately he was a quiet, lnonen-
siye citizen, working ever about his
forr, in tho vest side of the town as
industriously as when he was poor
man. To have seen him on his farm
or on the streets one would never have
nicked him out as a millionaire, for II
is understood that he died worth hall
million, Notwithstanding the hole
which his unceremonious callers made
in his fortune Mercer Republican.
