A BAR HARBOR STORY.
A Modern Paul and Virginia and What
Came of it.

The Saturday Evening Gazette says: At
one of the most prominent hotels at Bar Har-
Dor, there has been staying charming Phila-
delphia miss, who has been courted and at
tended as much as, if not more than, any of
the favored beauties. 1t was young Balti-
morean who seemed to bask the most in her
sunny presence, and we were soon told that he
was the one who had brought happy victim
to Venus's shrine. In short, they were engaged.
Like all Bar Harbor lovers, they used to go
rowing in the evening, and started recently
for ride that was more than usually interest
ing by reason of the lovely moonlight. After
rowing for some time they concluded to land
at neighboring island, and rest and talk
They soon became SO absorbed in one another's
company, and SO oblivious to all about them,
that they did not see their boat, which was
gradually, but surely drifting seward. When
they did finally become conscious that there
were other things in the world beside them
selves Careful mammas, among others), they
started to enter their boat and return.
Imagine her Il don't know about his) consterna
tion when they found that the boat had be-
come unfastened, and could be seen far, far
from shore, dancing trippingly in the silver
glinted water. What were they to do? He
took sensible view of the matter and con-
cluded there was nothing else but to remain on
the island until daylight, and then hail some
passing boat. To this she strongly objected:
her reputation would be compromised if they
remained together alone during the entire
night ona deserted island. In vain he pleaded.
No, she didn't believe people would take very
kindly to a new Paul and Virginia story.
There was only one honorable, manly thing
for him to do, she thought-to swim home and
tell of the affair. and bring her assistance. But
they were fully mile from the nearest shore,
the water was beating high, and he knew that
any such attempt would be not only foolhardy,
but fatal. She would not be convinced, nor
he persuaded They remained on the island
all the night while her friends suffered the
most intense anxiety. There must have been
a serious quarrel, for on their arrival homo the
following morning, it was noticed that the
young lady would not speak to her escort,
whom she doomed angallant coward, be-
cause he had refused to do what the hero in
"The Romance of Poor Young Man did Of
his own will. He went boldly to the mother
of his bstrothed, but she refused to listen to
any explanations, saying, "My daughter has

young man is still here, and though he says
nothing, it is plainly seen that he thi nks him.

story. It is barely possible, though, that their
opinion might be changed after hearing her
account of the affair.
