A Generous Young Man.

A correspondent at Eureka Springs
gives the particulars of sensational
deception which has just slipped from
under cover into the sunlight at that
place. Some time ago q rather hand
some young man visited the Springs.
Reports of his immense wealth were
soon spread around, and society clam
ored for the honor of entertaining him.
He soon became acquainted with a
beautiful young lady, daughter of 3
wellknown citizen. The old gentle
man encouraged the young mans visit,
eager in the acquisition OF such SON
in-law, and the beautiful young lady,
happy in the thought that her love was
approved by an indulgent father who
longcd for a life of ease, threw unspair-
ingly her affections on the wealthy
stranger. One day the young man
showed the old gentleman his will. He
bequeathed fifteen thousand dollars as
an endowment fund of q school in the
West, twenty thousand dollars to a
charity hospital, six thousand to the
poor of Eureka Springs, and seventy
i've thousand TO his wife, if he should
be so fortunate as to have one at the
time of his death. The old gentleman
was greatly pleased, and he was never
SO happy as when the young man was
bestoWing on him those little con-
ffdences which are so often denied q
parent by lover.
The approaching marriage was an

was crowded. Everybody happy. Bliss
full honeymoon. Young man taken i'll.
Died. The old gentleman, although he
had exhibited a proper amount of grief,
did not lose his appetite, and the young
widow was not unnecessarily crushed.
After q while the will was brought out
and examined. An investigation proved
il to be worthless. Then the old man
lost his appetite and the widow was
crushed. lit was also ascertained that
the young man had bcen for several
years looking for a home, boarding
house where weekly bills would not be
presented to him.
just to Think said the old man to

him, but had to bury him. Never saw d

him. Didn't hurt him. though, much /
worse than it did me. for it is all can
do to hustle around and get bread for
my family. If he hadn't died, would
have made him wish that he had. "
Il is hardly necessary TO offer advice
IN this matter. The widow should bear
her grief quietly and the old gentleman
should regain his appetite. Marrying
for money has been found to be very
unsatisfactory kind Of matrimony, and
the sooner beautiful young ladies and
grasping young ladies understand this,
the better it will be for future genera
