TIME IN JOURNAIIsNI

The success Of newspapers depends, in
a measure, upon time, and in the case of
news almost upon seconds of time. Com
plant is made because members OF the
Associated Press choose their partners
and do not throw open their doors to every
new conner. What private business is
conducted on that principle? Does the
dry goods merchant divide the orders of
his commercial agents with his neighbors? ?
Does broker supply competing brokers
with his private dispatches? And vet it
has been gravely suggested here that this
principle be applied to the Associated
Press-a business as distinctly private as
any of the others.

n 9phews we're promenading near the
railway station, which is the chief dis
traction in provincial town, they came
upon group of persons who had formed
about some travellers who had descended
from the train. In the center were two
Englishmen jabbering, and with them
pretty girl in Mahometan costume.
At the first glance PaGl recognized An
tonia, dressed as when he left her Her
story was a simple one. One of the
Englishmen had fallen in love with her,
and had taken her with HIM on condition
that she continued to wear the costume
in which she had bewitched him. By
speaking to bim in perfectly incompre-
hensible idiom she had succeeded in
convincing him that she was indeed an
oriental. As soon as she saw her former
friend, she exclaimed;
"Bonjouro, mi Caro- Paulich!' making
at the same time q sign which he at once
understood.
"Raviso del te visar en- excellenta san-
tepoulichl' replied Paul.
The jealous English listened and look
ed at them anxiously,
An internal plan presented itself to the
mind of Uncle Titus. He would see if
Jean, like his brother, was able to speak
with the Turkish girl in her own lang
uage.
"You say nothing to the young wo-
man said he to Jean. "She appears to
come from Constantinople, Speak to
her of her country; that will please
her."
"Do you come from Constantinople2'
said Jean to her, speaking in the best
Turkish, aud advancing with gracious
air.
Antonia stared at him stupidity. He
repeated his words. At this the jealous
Euglishman could restrain himself no
longer, aud he gave Jean ringing box
on the ear, to which the other English
man added kick.
There was lively scuf1le, Jean was
finally dragged away from his assailants
by Paul. But from that time the idea
was fixed in the mind Of Uncle Titus
that Jean had never been to the orient.
Jean he d deceiYed him. He erased his
name from his will.

A YEAR AGO.

A year ago, my darling, we wandered hand

Down MORA Vale,ns sunset cast its splendor

The world was bright before us,green leaves

Young summer bringing warmth and loYe
through all her pleasant bowers,
And oh, our hearts so rarely beat, and oh,
twas sweet to be,
For was all to you, ma belle, and you were
all to me.
A year ago, my darling lit seems a weary
white,
And MORA Vale is gloomy now, and fading
summers smile;
The green leaves wither on the boughs, the
tender flowers are blown;
And passed forever from the world the
glory it has known.
And oh, my heart is sad to think that time
no more may be
When l was all to you, ma belle, aud you
were all to mel
A year ago, r'y darling! and where is now
your troth?
The VOWS that bound not me alonel-the
love that linked us both?
Tush! what were VOWS or feelings to stay
