A beautiful girl of 10 stood upon the deck
of one of those magnificent steamers that ply
the Mississippi between New Orleans and the
northern cities.
She was leaning over the railing absorbed
in thought, and seemingly unconscious of the
admiring glances cast upon her by the proud,
tair-faced, young fellow who stood not far
away.
How charming she looked, with her dark.
Spanish beauty, soft Andalusian eyes, and
languid grace.
Clifton Cover hovered near her, power
less to resist the fascination of her presence
At last he approached her and broke the spell
of silence into which she had drifted.

He loved this dark, Sp 'nish beauty, but
how should he dare to tell his love, to seek to-
win hers and bring upon her innocent head
the evil destiny that followed all who joined
tho fortunes Of his family?
He turned away, resolved to say no more.
But the girl placed her small, graceful hand
ulOn his arm, and smiled upon him out of

and looked down Wisttully upon the dark.

fate which must ever separate him from this
beautiful woman whom he loved 50 we'll.
"Juanita," he said after they had paced
10 and down the deck two or three times in
perfect silence, ~ love you. You must know

privilege of asking your love in return-of

She did not answer, though he was sure the
charming face so carefully turned from him
would have told him what he most wished to
know, for the little hand trembled peceptib-
ly ia his.

The Floods and the Forests.

| The sudden occurrence OF the GREAT
Ohio flood upon scale unknown in the
records of the rivers risings suggests
some important inquiries. The LONG
series of Smithsonian rainfall reports
show that the principal minimum Of the
yearly precipitation in the Ohio Valley
takes place as a rule early in February.
Why there has been an exception to the
rule this year is not easy to explain fully.
| One thing. however, seems clear. The
fierce flood which burst forth from the
western slopes of the Alleghanies on
Fet raary 5, and raised the level of the
river at Pittsburgh nine feet in single
day, was the beginning of the great in
undation. This rise Of the mountain
streams should be traced apparently to
the snow-melting effects OF the warm
wave of February 3. which carried its
moist southerly winds with tempera-
ture OF over sixty degrees against the
western SIDES and through the passes of
the Alleghanies. The water thus sud-
denly disengaged from the frozen state
on the mountains and sent on its dis
astrous way to the sea has been con-
siderably increased in volume by the
subsequent heavy rainfalls.
1t is not strange that such conspirinr
forces have brought about the un.
paralleled over ow. But the rapidity
with which the work of destruction at
and below Cincinnati has been done
in less than fortnight from the SWELL |
ing OF the Ohio's headwaters-i hard I
to explain. The theory that forests
largely increase the condensation of /
vapor in the clouds has not Eeen fully
made out. But it is certain that tie
wholesale clearing of the soil. especial
" over vast elevated watershed like
that drained by the Ohio, greatly facili-
tates the rush of waters into the val
leys and preciritates the flood. In 1873
i was reported by one of the Govern
nenE surveyors that Great Salt Lake
hen averaged ten feet above its level

Jail. 1t consists of a hole in the ground,
into which prisoners are dropped. The
guards give strict orders that any man
who puts his head out will become

though the number of prisoners is large
no escapes have been reported. AS the
majority of jail-birds have been used to
living in "dug-outs,' their health does
not suffer from the underground prison.
The peculiar nature of the jail does not

Cigarettes and Snuff.

Cigarettes are in many respects the
symbols OF the age and its influences.
Inc social authority exercised by row.
atty never received greater tribute
than in the popularity which the cigar
cite has won. Fifteen years ago cigar
cites were furtivelY smoked by school
boys and fast young ladies. They were
regarded as foreign and effeminate
denominations, and they were never seen
In the lips OF any person of mature years
save the Gallo exile, temporarily resi-
Dent IN Leicester Square. The example
OF OF. the FRINGE OF Wales changed all this.
His royal Highness, in the course of his
peregrinations, had contracted the
habit OF smoking cigarettes. Straight
way the habit of the future King of
England became the fashion of Pail
Mali and st. James street. Other in
nuences were at work. The cigarette
was held to have about it q certain
cachet of Orientalism, and ever since
the Crimean war all the yanities and
ways OF the Asiatic have been in more
or less fashionable repute. Cigarettes
were at first regarded as an exclusively
Turkish product, and addiction to them
was accounteda mark of personal distinc-
ton. They had other claims upon public
consideration than this. Upon the con-
tlnent OF Europe they had long been Ia
vorltes with statesmen and diplomat
lists. Tolerable cigarettes were naturally |
preferred to execrable cigars, and the
fancy for cigarettes was soon ACQUIRED |
by the Englishmen moving in political
diplomatic circles. Such is the force of
ASSOCIATION that a cigarette-box grad
ually became the distinctive sign of the
citizen OF the world. The cosmopolitan
financier was behind the scenes in
every European capital. The affecta-
ton had its advantages. If it was not
very enjoyable it was economical. Good
cigars were increasingly difficult to get
and dear to buy; perfectly smokabIe
cigarettes We're generally to be procured
and on very modest terms. In this wav
the practice has grown till it has become
to the present age what snuff-taking
was to our grandfathers. The Bath Fl
footman in the 'sPickwick Papers, found
It at once more agreeable and cheap to
ill his box with coffee than with rappee.
Gentlemen of all degrees s.snuffed.n
not because they liked it, but because
t was the correct thing to do. The art
u opening snuff-box and of handing h t
o ones friends was as diligently studied
IS the art of bowling or of entering a
Dom. Snuf-taking in society was in 9
act not pleasure, but an accomplish F
nent. This is the sort of position which
Igarette-smoking may be said to have ;,
