Love and Time one summers day
Fat and tslked together;

Time Looked up and gsIei at him,
Hsl contempt, hall pity;
CElmly smiling, grave aud grim,
Thus ttokup The dlttyt
"Allthe void is growing gay,

You'll be flder, too, tome dK,.

Love rose up and ran away,

"silly, silly, though I be,
There's no need 10 fi1ut me,
Though the world may laugh at me,

Up tothe present time no information has
been gained, notwithstanding the vigilance
OF the search which is being made, which
can lead to the discovery OF the young
woman alleged to be the daughter Of an
English baronet, who had been deserted
when mere infant by her parents nearly
twenty years ago at Kingston. Numbers oil
persons remember the circumstances of an
elegantly-dessed female infant being found
on the doorseps of Mr.. Thomas Carey, Sus-
EEK parade; also the baptism of the infsut
and her renvsl TO Rathdown Union work
house, Lougllinstown. A vigilant search
has been male through the old admission
books and Other records of the workbouse,
and one entry was found referring to the
period when tie child was deserted. Il
records the admission of female infant
who had been deserted in Kingston; but
strange 10 say, thre is another entry which
says that this infnt was taken out of the
workhouse two dag after her admission, by
some woman who hen resided on Green
street. 1t is said thst this entry cannot re-
fer TO the missing heress of 10000 a year
and an enormous AMOUNT OF accumulated
money. 1t is stated tint as much as $4,000 is
offered for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS that will
lead TO the discovery o the lost heress, and
it seems that the story o. the desertion Of her
child at Kingston was old by her mother
when on her deathbed, hort time since.

a Taef0Oed Iadv

Miss Irene Woodward ia ahaudsome young
lady OF medium stature, WHIT If met on the
street in ordinary costume, would attract
only the passing attention usRllY given 10
s pretty woman. She is nineteen years old
educated, refined and very Winning in her
manners, but these attractions done might
not count for much if it were not that under
her street costume she conceals a quantity of
-tattooing that for extent and bealty rivals
even the gorgeous India-ink ars6esquery
with which the dark skin of Capt Costen-
tenus, the Greek, is adorned. She isuow on
exhibition at Saekett's Dime MUSEUM on
South Fifth street. She appears on III, plat
form in bodice and trunk OF embroidered
cardinal satin trimmed with white lace; the
arms. lower limbs and neck are displaSd.
and as they sre covered with fg-
ures and embems in blue and RET
all Joined by delicate tracery, the
sight is an unusually beautiful one. There
are 270 distinct pictures on Miss Woodward:
body and limbs, all the subjects being
American and OF the kind affected By sail
ors. Her father, she says, was an English
sailor who began the tattooing when she wa;
six years old and finished it by the time she
reached twelve. Her brother who died last
year in Denver was tattoosd in the came
way. She has been on exhibition now q
year, and recently in New York created 3
furore among fashionable ladies who came 10
her TO have tattooipg done. Costentenus il
now in England. Miss Woodward is the
only tattcoed lady in this country.

A Haunted Desk.

The San Luis Obispo Tribune says tina.
very mysterious desk has for some lime been
an object of great solicltude in the Office Of
the Pacific Coast railway. Several months
sgO Freight Agent HasSiDs observed q sin
gular rappiDg and rafting noise 10 the desk
az which he was writing, and endssvored to
ascertain the cause. After a careful exam
alton no cause could be found, and work
was resumed. At very inopportune times
this noise would be repeated, and a belief
was aroused that spirits had taken possession
OF the desk and it WIS placed in another
room. But even from there it continued It's
annoyarc ana II was sent down to the depot
without any intimation Of lis tricks. But al
the depot It continued lis rsppings, and the
clerk 10 whom it was assigned chose boxes OF
tables or other decks TO write upon rather thar
coufess his fright at the haunted object which
was his companion. Luckily a desk was
wanted il the depot at Los Alamos. The clerk
recomme nded that the one which had beer
| assigned to him be sent, as he thought ht
| could get along without it, and the officers o
| the company relieved him of the object o
terror. The haunted dess WAS sent 10 Lo,
Alamos, bearing good character and frest
| coat OF varnish. 1t was thought so great
removal would dislodge the troubled anC
troublesome spirit and give the clerks rest
| But now comes the complaint from Los Ala
| mos OF mysterious noises from that sam
| desk. WHAT can be done with il? All ar,
| getting frightened. Cannot some medium
| investigate II and unravel The mystery, o
send the desk on the Lompoc, where nj
spirits are allowed?

Married "Freehs;s

"There have been no more marriages
among freaks announced lately" said q
gentleman connected with the show business
in Pitts burg; "but as far as l am advised,
all of the married ones are living in the en-
joyment Of excellent health and spirits
The fat women seem TO hold their own in
the matter of a sh, and the skeletons are
gaining in the same commodity. There's
Hannah Batlersby, the largest fat woman in
the world. She weighed $50 pounds when
che was married, and her husband weighed
sixty-ive pounds. The husband has Just
doubled in weight during his years Of mar
ried life. Their daughter has grown up
into an attractive young lady. Walter
Stewart, the srmless and legless man, who
was joined in matrimony to the daugh-
.er of John O'Brien, the wealthy cir
Gus man, has prospered finely in his domestic
relations, and Isaac w. Sprsgue, the living
skeleton, is the father of three large, healthy
looking children. He has been thrice mar
ri,d. His weight used TO be forty.two
ponds. Captain and Mrs Bates, the giant
and gisntess, have prospered in the accuuau-
lati'n of this worlds goods, and own an ele-
giant stock farm out West. ! notice that
very ofien freaks take to their opposites in
this matter of getting married, but this is
one oil the cases where two Of a kind took

ATHORoUaH RASCAL.
THE STORY OF JOHN GOODWIN, THE NEW
ENGLAND DEFAULTER.


SPRINGFIELD, MASS, March 10.-The
theory that John Goodwin, the missing
Chicopee contractor, has decamped leaving
debts OF $4,000, Is coming TO be pretty
generally accepted. The town Of Chicooee
may be said 10 sWarm with his creditors,
who hold claims ranging all the way from
5000 TO $4,000. AT his home, where Good
win has always been regarded as honest
man, and enjoyed the confidence of most of
the leading men Of the community, mis- dis
appearance Causes no little trouble as well
as surprise. The Chicopee Manufacturing
Company have not yet paid his help, but
they will do so as coon as they can legally.
The men need the money SO as to meet their
bills. and many of the clearinghouse keep
ers are sufferers also. Goodwin was seen
east of Palmer on the train Tuesday, and
he talked freely about his railroad
enterprise at Baltimore, and said he expect
ed to make fortune out OF it. He changed
his seat soon after, and as his companion
handed Goodwin his valise he remarked
about its weight; Goodwin laughed, and
said ii contained "the stuff" Ii Is not
though that he took away a very large cum
of money-some people believe not over
$4,000. Goodwin has carried on large
business for several years, some of the time
employing 400 or 500 men, with a monthly
payroll of $4,000 or more, and it ia evident
that his business has been doAe loosely. He
is known TO have lost $1,000 on one contract
alone, snd has probably run behind on 9TH
eTs. The only criticism of his course that
many express is that he did not remain and
face his trouble like man. Some think
that his embarrassment can be traced to bis
railroad enterprise at Baltimore, while others
intimate that his private life was not above
reproach. Goodwin was formerly fore
man of the Dwight Manufac uring Com
pauy's wood department, and left their EN-
ploy 10 become contractor. He represented
the town in the Legislature in 18S0-S1. He
will probably be placed in insolvency by his
