Henry v. as q Huntsman.

Almost as he spoke, there burst from
the thicket, not hundred yards away,
splendid red deer, whose spreading
antlers proclaimed him to be 'stag Of
twelve" or "stag royal" Fast after
him dashed the excited hunters; but,
leading them all, spurred q sturdy
young fellow of eager ffteen-tall and
slender, but quick and active in every
movement, as he yielded himself to the
free action of his horse and cheered on
the hounds. But now the deer turned
to the right and made for distant
thicket, and his companions saw the
young hunter spring from his tagging
steed, and, with stout cord reeled
around his arm, dash after the stag
afoot, while hounds and hunters painted
far behind.
1t was a splendid race for boy and
beast. The lads quick feet seemed
scarcely to touch the ground, every
spring bringing him nearer and nearer
to his noble prey. There is final
squirt; the coil of cord flies from the
hunters arm, as his quick fling sends
it straight in air; the moose settles over
the broad antlers of the buck; the youth
draws back with a sudden but steady
jerk, and the defeated deer drops to
earth, doomed and painting captive.
Flash! cleaned his sharp steel in air;
and, kneeling on the body of the dying
stag, Henry Of Monmouth, Prince Of
Wales, dispatched another victim Of
his prowess. -"HistorTc Boys" IN 81.

How She Was lowered.

Both the Packer boys, Robert and
Harry, were treated like equals by
their father and mother. says the Pitts
burg Post. In the little village where
this good old man lived was summer

bly, during the season, young Harry
Packer often taking his meals there.
A young girl named Lockwood, the
daughter of a respectable citizen living
near the village, came in to assist
waiting on the table. The frequency
of Harry Packers meals at the hotel
attracted some attention, and his
brother Robert or "Bob," rs he was
familiarly and affectionately called by
almost all who ever knew him, said one
dav before the father and Harry at the
breakfast table that Harry was sweet
on little girl down at the hotel, and
that was the reason he did not come to
his meals regularly. Harry colored up
little, and after they had finished
their breakfast the old Judge seated
himself on the front porch, which over

what he said to her, or she to him, will

tells it, but when the Judge came out,
he was smiling, and appeared mighty
well pleased. He went home and
found Harry still seated on the porch
where he had left him. BY this time
the Judges face had resumed its us
ual grave but kind expression. ''Well,
Harry" he said, ''that is very nice
girl down there, but she has no money.
| We must raise her some"
The old Judge put down his memoir
anda for $4,000, the mother and
others for $25, 900 each, and this $3.50
900 was placed in the bank to the
exclusive and immediate credit of Miss

marriage took place, and Harry Pack

Mrs. Leslie's Love Story.

Itwas nearly three years ago that
Mrs. Leslie and the Marquis first met.
The Marquis de Leuville had come to
this country to enlarge the scope of his
literary and scientific studies. One day
while in the city he started out to call
upon friend. As he was about to as
cend the stoop at his friends house a
carriage dashed up to the same house.
The door flew open and the pref
tiest little foot had ever seen in my
life was placed daintily on the carriage
step. And the next instant the most
charming little being eyes ever rested
on sprang out all done up in Grape"
said the Marquis in describing the
meeting to friend. 1--WE both stood
on the steps 4 moment before the door
was opened" he continued, land
caught glimpse of two beautiful eyes
almost hidden by big Grape vail. l
was so infatuated at first sight that l
walked up and down the room with the
utmost impatience until our mutual
friend came down and introduced us.
l really don't know whether it was
that dainty little foot or the large,
dreamy eyes that first captivated me-"
After their introduction the Marquis
paid the most devoted attention to
Mrs. Leslie, but she was so deeply inn
mersed in the cares of business at that
time and so earnestly engaged in extri-
eating the enormous business that had
been left to her charge from an almost
hopeless tangle that she had little time
to think of matrimony.
About year ago Mrs. Leslie was ly-
ing almost at the point of death, and
the chivalrous Marquis, on hearing of
it, fastened to her bedside, and, by ev-
cry little attention conceivable, en-
deavored to sooth her bed of sickness.
Still the lady's heart was not altogeth-
er won, and it was only when the Mar
quis de Leuville came to this country
for the third time and pressed anew
his suit that she finally consented to
become his wife.
Mrs. Frank Leslie is one of the most
remarkable women living. She possess
ses far more business sagacity and as
tuteness than most men, and at the
same time she combines with it the del
icate refinement which the highest cul-
ture alone can give. Her literary at
tainments alone would have won for
her an enviable reputation had she not
become renowned for her business abil-
ity.
When Frank Leslie was about to die
he called Mrs. Leslie to his bedside,
and said to her: go to my office and
sit at my desk until my debts are all
paid" The weeping wife gave her SOL
emn promise to the dying man to fulfill
his wish. That was five years ago.
Immediately after the funeral she took
her seat at her late husbands place,
and to-day the mammoth publishing
house that bears his name is free from
debt.
When they are married the Marquis
and Marquise de Leuville will reside in
New York and the fair wife of the gal
liant Chevalier will continue to carry
on the business of Frank Leslie, pub
Usher, but will devote about one-half
as much time to her desk as she does at
present

How to Train Children.

Be careful with the children. Ex-
plain things to them. Do not get i'm
patient if they fail to perform things
correctly or just to your taste. They
are different, Il great deal different from
you. Everything is new to them. Life
is q sort of dream opening out to their
innocent, puzzled young hearts and
brains; therefore do not be surprised if
the children are slow, and apparently
dull. or ii they do not understand ev-
erything. Do not, either, when you
are out of sorts. praise the neighbours
children, or any particularly bright
child that YOU may happen to know.
Early impressions are lasting on child
hood, and many an honest little girl
and manly boy has felt the young life
within them grow sour with disgust at
the praises of others that are continu-
ally dinned into their heads. Nine
tenths of the sweet scented dudes and
loafers who hang around public places
with their hands in their pockets, were
smart when they were young; but the
dull youngsters always turn out we'll
some OF them deep and profound schol-
ars, some lawyers, some merchants,
and others great mechanics. If you
will always treat your child as a
child, you will be more successful with
him.

No New Developments Tho GhOul.
Guilty Of Felony.
The attempt to steal the remains Of the
late Bishop Whelan was the principal topic
Of conversation about town yesterday. There
were no new developments, and everybody
n Diced that the ghouls had been so fortu
uately frustrated. The opinion held BY
Bishop Kahn and Constable Love, that the
would-be robbers were strangers, was moi
generally accepted by the public. There are
many circumstances which point to home
professionals as the sacsilegious dsspolIers OF
the grave. These are not, however, definite
enough to warrant any arrests.
The attempt has accomplished one good
end. 1t has directed public attention 10 the
absence for any provision In the State
Statutes to punish grave robbers. 4 prom.
inent lawyer said yesterday: Had those
men succeeded in stealing Biahop Whelhns
remains, they conld have treated for theil
return with perfect impunity, provided they
bad left the cross and other articles OF value
buried with the body. Stealing these would
have constituted felony, but carrying off q
body Is no crime under our statutes"
The point he made would be good one in
an ordinary case, but In this one, were the
perpetrators OF the outrage at Mt. Calvary
cemetery apprehended to-day they could b.
sent to the peaitentiary. The mere entrance oil
the chapel under circumstances which would
give rise to the presumption that their mo-
tive was larceny constituted felony, tech.
