There is young lady here, says the
Salt Lake Herdid who has been work
ing eighteen months on quilt. There
are about $4,000 pieces in il now, and
it is not vet completed. The quilt is
regulated by her beaux When She be-
gan her heart was chirruping to her Of
somebody, and the quilt grew wonder
fully fast and all the colorS were bright.
After awhile hcrfriends noticed change
in her face, that her work progressed
less rapidly, aud that sober shades were
being introduced in the wonderful crea-
ton, After few weeks more the work
stopped short, like grandfather's clock,
and was laid away for six weeks
But one morning after ball, though
the lady had danced late, she was up
bright and early, the neglected quilt
was brought forth, the sombre tints
were all unstilched, more bright colors
were produced, and as the quilt grew
rapidly under her deft hands, it shono
like a wreath of wonderful flowers under
her eyes, and the song in her heart took
on the tone Of the lullaby which the
mother bird sings in her nest But this,
too, stopped after awhile. The sombre
hues were recalled, and every bright
square was embossed with dot Of
brown or sable, until the effect was that
of u half-mourning robe Then new
lover came, grave and thoughtful
looking gentleman, of mature years,
and for fortnight the work went on in
silence, until a border Of old gold sur
rounded the quilt. So it has gone on
ever since; sometimes progressing with
wonderful speed, then, like Penelope,
the work which was wrought with songs
BY day had been oblitorated with tears
by night sometimes 1t has been laid
away for week at time.
The reporter saw the young lady at
work few days ago. The quilt was
nearly complete, only a few patches re-
naming, and meanwhile there was a
look of resolve around the mouth and
lovellghtin the eyes of the young lady
wonderfully suggestive of feeling in
her heart that there was TO be no moro
ditching Of the train and no more wash
outs; that everything was running on
fast schedule time and that she was al
ready preparing to whistle down brakes
on young man, and hcnceforth to be
his conductor for life.

AsT0R's GREAT YACHT.
IFrom the N. Y. World.l


The competition among millionaires
as to who shall have the largest and
finest steam yacht appears likely to re-
suit i'll the construction of a steam
pleasure craft as large as the Arizona
and Alaska. The fastest wealthy man
to enter the lists is Mr.. William Astor.
who has contracted with the Harlin &
Hollingsworth company, of Delaware,
TO construct steam yacht that shall
excel in style and finish, as well as
size, anything that has ever been built
in this country. Mr.. Astor's proposed
yacht, the keel of which was laid at
Wilmington the other day, is to be of
steel-all other boats, the Polynia.
Namouna, Corsair, Stranger, and Ata-
lanta being of iron.
The new yacht will be of enormous
dimensions, PAS feet over all, 235 feet
on water line, 30 feet beam, and 20 feet
depth of hold. The other big ones
rank as follows:
Atalanta, over all, 2O6 feet 8 inches ::
Namouna, 226 feet 10 inches; Yose-
mite, 1s2 feet: Stranger, 100 feet; Cor
sair. 1856 feet, etc. The cost of Mr..
Astor's yacht will be greater than anv
Of the others by about 100000. It il
estimated that Mr.. Could Atalanta
cost $3.50, GOO. The boat, therefore. will
cost fully $350,00O.
