A NICE LITTLE ROMANCE.
How "A New Jersey Domestic Met Her
0ld-Tlme Lover.
New York World

Among the passengers on the steam
ship City of Rome on one of her re-
cent trips was Mary Murphy, a tall,
handsome girl with glossy black hair,
who occupied berth in the Storage.
She was scarcely more than 18 years
old, travelled all alone, with little or
no baggage Her refined manners
and clear accent led some Of the Off
GERS to suspect that she was brought
up in one Of the larger cities The
girl skillfully evaded all questioning
and kept her own counsel She did
not have any money, and on her ar
rival secured a situation as nurse in
wealthy family living on Bergen
avenue, jersey City. She was a very
trustworthy servant, and so won the
affections Of her mistress that she was
treated with more than ordinary kind
ness. Ia spite of all she seemed to be
unhappy and suffered from protracted
attacks of mental depression. On be
ing asked one day as to the cause of
her sorrow Mary confessed She said
/ that she had fallen in love with a
young man in the old country and
was about to be married, but her
/ parents objected because he was poor
and sent her away to the north of
4 Ireland, where she was consigned to
the care of an aunt Before going,
however, she managed to see her loyer,
4 who asked her to remain true 10 him.
Upon this he left for America to seek
his fortune. Once separated, Mary
heard nothing more Of him, and, b
coming disconsolate, she decided 70
follow him. She eluded the vigilance
OF her aunt, and one night disappear
ed. With just money enough TO pay
for a Storage passage she came over
to this country.
About week ago Mary's mistress
had occasion to visit relative living
4 in Mount Vernon, WeSteheStsr
county, and took the girl with her.
On entering the gate Mary suddenly
/ dropped one of the children and ran
into the arms Of a young nam who
was Just coming oat with kit Of tools,
The pair stood locked in each others
embrace. Mary raiaed showers OF
kisses upoa the young man aud hung
on to his neck. 1t soon became ap
parent that Peter Doyle, which was
the young carpenters name, was
Mary missing lover.
+ In less than half an hour the past was
told, aad the young girls spirits vert
revived The faithful nurse accom-
panied her mistress back home. The
romantic discovery Of her lover was
too much for Mary. She asked tina
they be united at once, and last nigh
She became Mrs D1vle.

James Jackson, of Georgia, who had
been and afterward was a United
States senator, was the challenged
party. He was an Englishman by
birth. He killed Lieutenant Govern
or Wells, of Georgia, in 1880, in a
duel, and he finally determined to &C
cept challenge on such terms as
would make it his last duel SO, upon
his next challenge, which was from
Col. r. Watkins, also from Georgia,
he prescribed as the terms that each
party, armed with a double barreled
gun loaded with buckshot and with a
hunting knife. should row himself
in skiff to designated points on OPP
posite sides of the Savannah river
When the city clock struck ~ each
shoald row his skiff TO a small island
in the middle of the river, which was
wooded and covered with underbrush.
On arriving at the island each was to
moor his skiff, stand about for ten
minutes, and then go about the island
until the meeting took place, The
seconds waited on the mainland until
after O'clock, when they heard three
gun shots and loud and angry cries;
then all was still. At daylight, as had
been agreed on the seconds went to
the island, and found Jackson lying
on the ground insenslble from the loss
of blood, and his antagonist lying
across him dead. Jackson recovered,
but would never relate his experience
on the island, nor was he ever chal-
leaged again He died in Washing
ton City while serving his second term
