A'Trne" Htory From Ole Virglnny-A
Qucsiinn of Maternal Responsibility.
Na1ptr's Magazine. u
A Virginia correspondent sends the FOL-
lowing true" story: :
About i've years ago Mrs. H., Of
Amelia county, Virginia, had in her EN-.
ployment in the capacity Of nurse a col
ored girl named Betty. Betty was a de.
lightfnl, irolicsome creature, Astounding in
auecdote, utterly irresponsible, and en-
tirely seli.satiafed. Unfortunately these
excellent qualities were marred by a habit
Of thieving, which was overlooked by her
soit.hearted employer, who was, cad to re.
late, rather given to excusipg any lack oil
morality which did not interfere with the
happiness OF the denizens OF the nursery.
But, alas! one fine morning poor Betty
took twenty or thirty dollars from the
pocket OF q drunken 1rishman. Through
some Law bubble, satisfactory to the jury
aud Commonwealth attorney, rs the man
was asleep on the public highway, giggling,
li~ght.headed Betty was transferred from

4 story Of Gen. Hancock.

Gen. Hancock always had Il quality of
being a little ahead rather than behind in
the execution, OF his orders, and the result
was that his command had Il great deal OF
hard work to do. From Spottsvlvania to
City Point it bore the t,runt OF the battle,
and when, after Cold llarhor, Grant de-
tcr,nincd to change his position to the south
side of the James river. the second corp,
was torn and shattered almost out OF form.
With what men were Lett, Hancock with

heart broken ut the condition OF his COM

and as he was standing upon its bank, !,

MCCULLOUGH.
Pathetic Incidents Of His Last Re.
hearsal.

The Chicago I,ib~nc gives the following:
There was a pathetic scene in the thcater
in the morning, when the members Of the
company, to honor Mccullough, consented
to rehearsc .'Richcicu,' although they
knew the management had declared the
engagement at an end. Mr.. Mccullough
himself insisted that he would continue to
play, and so the rehearsal went on, for all
his old associates were anxious to crafty
his strange whim. He struggled through
the lines OF the part OF the great cardinal,
now and then uttering sentences from
"Virginius," THE Gladiator,' and other
iavorite plays. At last he came to the curse
scene, and there was a nonentary CLEAN
of his former fire as the splendid and pow.
crful words fell from his lips. Some OF the
members Of the company who were sitting
in the parquet, began TO applaud, md
touched bv this sudden exhibition of SYM
pathv, the actor burst into tears. As he
wept the fond illusion OF power that hc
cherished seemed To fall from him. Then
the play went ON, and Mr.. Lane uttered Il
line descriptive of the cardinals waning
strength. Mccullough looked at him in a
sad, dazcd way, and again there was 4
pans. of the most painful embarrassment.
Finally Mr.. Mccullough wandered from
the part OF Richelicu to that Of Richard I'LL,
which he had seen played by kcenc two
nights before Probably there is nothing
more touching in the history of the stage
than the fatality which induced the ccs-
pondent actor to speak these infinitely sad
lines from the fifth act Of Shakespearcs IS
play. They are from Richards soliloquy
after the awful ASPIRATIONS on the battle
field, and when he was filled with the pre-
sentiment Of his coming fate:
l shall dcsm',r--therc is creature loves me:
And i'll die, soul will pity me-
Before the rehearsal was over some one
brought in from the front of the building
the huge placards bearing the tragedian
name and likeness, and this incident was !;
shock to him. He realized then that his
engagement was ut an end, and he saw at
last the full significance Of the line ad
dressed to him the night before, when hi'
strength forsook him in the last scene o.
"'rhe Gladiator.' The words were in the
play, but it was a strange coincidence tina
they should have been spoken at the yer,
instant when John McC Culloush stood per
haps for the last time upon stage:
Ccner;l yo, are unfit for hattie.

BELvA AND BEN.
1t IN Proposed that they Pool Issues for
the Presidency.

The Chicago Tribune says that Belva
Lock wood the women's candidate for the |
Presidency, is at least fertile in resources
and proposes to be recognized as a candi-
date. Her latest scheme is IL convention Of
candidates to meet at Wheeling, W. Va, to
devise ways and means for raising the can
vass to higher moral plane and elimina.
ting the element Of scandal from public
discussion. She has already addressed a
letter to Grover Cleveland to this effect,
and will wait for a reply before notifying
the other candidates-Blaine, Butler and
st. John. Cleveland would undoubtedly
like to have his scandal about the Widow
Halpin eliminated. We fear that Belva
understands this and is simply perpctratiny
Il practical joke on Cleveland, or it may be
her sardonic way OF notifying him that
there is scandal attached to him, and that
| he ought to get rid Of it. Ii there is any
| blush in Cleveland's cheek letter of this
kind, coming from a lady, ought to bring it
| out.
There is little hope, however. that Belva
will accomplish any thing by this little
Skierniwice arrangement. \ more feast
bic scheme for her, If she really wants to
advance her campaign interests, is to pool
her issues with Ben Butler and make a
Joint campaign. Ben has always been a
gallant man to the ladies', and If Bclva can
persuade him she has any votes he would
undoubtedly receive her with open arm.
and take her as running mate. Ben anc
Belva on the same platform would draw
the biggest kind. Of crowds OF the season
aud would add q picturesque feature to th'
campaign.

A Warrior of the Sea.

Capt. Ashby, famous sword fisherman,
Commission with much of the material used
in reports about the swordfish, gives the fol-
lowing account of a lively experience In
mid.ocean: A man at the masthead caught
sight of the dorsal fins of hugh sword fish,
and the vessel was steered directly toward
the spot. In the pulpit-a raised platform
at the end Of the bowsprit-stood the har-
pooner. The warrior of the waves may have
been asleep, or he may have held the vessel
IN contempt. At any rate the approach was
successful, and the harpoon was buried In
the back of the fish. The next moment the
wounded monster leaped clear out Of the
water, attempted as he vaulted, to shake out
the barbed prongs of iron. So great was his
effort that he fell on his side with crash,
but the very next instant he was of with tre.
mendous speed. The line ran out so quick
the break had been expected, and before long
six stalwart sailors were tugging at one end
of the line, while the sword fish held the
other. Six men never before were jerked
around In q more lively manner than were
the six in question. Now the sword fish
would land them altogether in heap: then
he would let the line become slack and
would catch them unawares by darting like
q shot In some other direction. This sword
fish was taken within less than an hour, and
no one was hurt, but many cases have been
known wherein persons we're injured. One
Of Capt. Ashby's men was wounded, on an
other cruise, by fish which thrust Its sword
through the oak floor of small boat and
pierced the naked keel to the depth of two
inches.

San Fancisco Chronicle, eth


Bandmann has been playing all week TO
fair houses. There 10 no reason why he
should expect to do any better. He has
allied himself with transforming, and he
seems TO be content to travel around whale
among minnows rather than stand In with
new ideas and try and find new play suited
TO his style Of acting. He has not improved.
Playing with fourth-rste company In sup
port, his own manager, his own everything,
Is not conducive to any great reputation, and
Bandmann himself . very few years ago
would have rallied ct the idea of presenting
Shakespeare In such form as he does II at the
Grand Opera House. He has capabilities.
He Is throwing them away. IT is not i'm
possible for Bandmsnn to take some position
among the leading actors Of to-day. But II
he elects to be cheap star, the public have
too much to interest them TO give him the
encouragement he seems to require. As for

POETRY
WELLS THAT NEVER FREEZE.

Natures wells are deep below,
Deep below the line of frost and snow;
They are clear and sparkling, cool and sweet,
Clear and sparkling underneath our feet.
Cool through all the summers heat,
Free through winters frost and snow,
For the wells that Nature digs
Are below the line Of change,
Deep, deep below.
Natures wells are never dry.
When the August sun is blazing high
They are deep and cool, they are cool and
deep,
And In rocky cisterns moisture keep
For the tiniest seeds that sleep,
For the roots of mighty trees,
For the thirsty lips that know
Natures wells are far below
The line of change.
My life's wells lie far below,
Far below the line of frost and snow;
Safely hid within my home they lie,
Deep and still and sweet beneath Loves sky.
Frost and heat and wind pass by;
Life has drought and frost outside,
But the household wells still flow
Clear and sweet and far below.
The line of change.
For homes wells are never dry.
Outside oft the conflict wakes high,
And bitter drought Is on the strife,
Or a frost ties fast the hopes of life;
Then, at home, by side of child and wife,
Are the wells that never fail,
Are the household wells that flow
Sweet and deep and clear, below
The line of change.
