AT THE STROKE OF TWELVE.

The old, baid-headed, wrinkle-faced
watchman who walks up and down the
broad stone terrace in front of the Ber-
lin University, has many a quaint and
romantic story TO tell to the wayfarer
who will take the time and patience to
Hotter in his presence.
1 CHANGED to fall in with this peculiar
old fellow during my travel through
Europe some five years ago. | fell an
easy victim to his tongue-wiles. and in
the end it was my fortune to listen to
one of his most romantic yarns.
The incidents which he so faithfully
portrayed, with a telling minuteness as
TO detail and the like. chung to me
throughout my entire continental trip;
and, even as | sit here now, in my home
in America, many miles away from
the immediate locality connected with
the watchman's story, the outlines. the
shadows, the features, are yet fresh in
mind
1t would. however. be tiresome for
me, as well as yourself, dear reader. to
repeat the story word for word as it
was told to me. l will endeavor to give
you the more particular parts. and
leave to your Imagination the task of
filing in the outlines, which are as fol-
lows:
Herman Van Berg was known as the
leader OF the White Caps. They were
a Jolly lot of fellows, these White Caps.
who backed up their assertions with
swords points. either for study. drink
ing bouts at the gardens below. love in
cidcnts, or more serious questions OF
merit, pertaining to dueling affairs.
Gretchen Grouse was the only child
of the rich brewer in the city down
there. All! but she was 3 maid to set
mems hearts On tire, to cause them to
put on the bucklet of chivalry, and do
battle for one sweet smile from her fair
face.
She was the belle of the occasion /;
either at the gay and festive ball. or
the skating rink, Gretchen's handsome
form and bewitching face were the first
objects of attraction.
MANY a fierce and bloody conflict had
been fought for the maids sake; many
q sutton had been laid low at the fOil's
point. Yet no victor could boast that
he had won Gretchen's hand. She. who
had caused so much blood to be shed,
would turn in very horror from the man
WhO came and laid the laurels OF his
triumph before her.
AWAY from me your hand. for it is
stained with blood. Your heart l can
not accept. 1t is black with the crime
which hangs ove your head"
Those were her words when the
victor kneeled at her throne of beauty,
md sued for n sweet smile tor loves
uWu sake.
Einaliy it became . wide. spread belief
among the students of the University
fhat Gretchen rouse was q loveless

1t is q fact perhaps not generally
known that Bangor, ae., makes about
as many moccasins as all the other
places in the United States combined.
In 1868 the business in Bangor was con-
trolled BY four large firms, which ara
now merged into two These employ
about three hundred persons, and turn
out about 100000 pairs of boots and
shoes q year, four-fifths of the number
being shoes. Many Improvements have
been made in the moccasin since its first
introduction, and it is now decent in
appearance IS well as very comfortable.

Two Cautious Women.

Gan women are alike in their fear of the
cars" said an Illinois Central conductor.
"They carry their caution to absurd extremes.
That reminds me of a little story. Down in
the southern part OF the State we have up at
road crossings some of the old fashioned
signs. Look out for the cars when the bell
rings At one of the crossings the other
day two women came up, driving an old
horse hitehed to a buggy. They looked all
about and couldn't see any cars, but happened
to read the sign, stop, said one, L heard a
bell. They both listened, and sure enough,
they heard a bell tinkling. One of the
women got out, and amid considerable ex-
citement took hold of the horses bride. The
other one frightened her grip on the lines, set
her Jaws, and prepared for the worst. They
looked anNiously up the track for the train.
