There are some bad men in Pembina.
The fact is sometimes disputed but the
relation Of the following incident should
settle the matter at once and forever.
A bachelor some miles to the west of
Neclle is prepared to and is DESTROYS of
taking upon himselfthe duties and worry
|of matrimony, and a lady in Pe,nbina is
30 fortunate as to have made captive OF
this gentleman. He is her slave-and all
that kind ofthing. How this came about
does not much matter, but q certain man
connected with one of our stage lines is
not altogether innocent. Be this as it
may, our hero wished to pay the lady a
visit and, naturally enough, being man
of letters penned her an epistle, which
breathed Of an undying, inquenchsble
love, and stated that lie would reach
Pembina Tuesday evening when he de.
sired an interview. The epistle. by
means fair enough, fell into the hands Of
a wicked man who for brevity we will
designate "Kabp-a bold and designing
man. Somewhere between two and
three minutes his plans were all laid. A
note was written in neat lady's hand,
|purporting to come from the lady wor.
shipped by the western man and directing
him to meet her in front of Shaw and
Charlton's at $50 o'clock N n. He arriv-
ed in town about o'clock, registered at
the Geroux Hotel, and shortly after was
handed the note, which by the aid of the
clerk he deciphered, and at the appoint
ed hour sailed out to meet-not his dear
one, but gentleman in woman's apparel
whom we might call Harry; but it was
all the same to him, yet awhile. They
met and the following dialogue took place.
Mr.-"Oh, good evening""
Miss-"Ah, good evenings =.
Mr.-"Are you Miss"
Miss-"Yes, I am Miss"
Mr.-(Embracing herr "You little
dear. Let's go for walk"
An interesting conversation followed,
while the happy pair traversed Rolette
street and turned up second, and just
about that time the furry and excitement
incident to such occasions wore off our
western man and he spoke thus:
"Why, you are not Miss"
Miss-"Why, yes, am"
Mr.-"Are you now?"
Miss-Why, didn't I get two letters
from you; didn't write you letter this
evening"
Mr.-"You have changed in appear.
ance surely"
Miss-"Well, if / am not Miss,
good day."
And they parted without shaking lrands.
Nd one can speak definitely as TO our
bachelor friend further than the above,
as lie seemed during the remainder OF
the evening to be looking for u club and
nobody cared to 90 very close to him.
