THE HLSIT0R.

This morning a stranger, dainty and sweet.
In the window rested his little feet;
Then questingly peeped through the open
door,
Pattered the roof tree o er and DER,
Wistfully crying "Phebe .
| knew his wings yet scented of clover
That apple blooms had kissed the rover
That perchance he'd a nest in the very tree
That in childhood's plays had sheltered me.
But to all twas 'Phebe. Phebe.n
AS shell singeth ever and only the sea.
So sang the bird "Phebe, Phebe;'
And from early dawn to the shadows dim.
Not the ghost of an echo answered him.
And still twas "Phebe, Phebe!''
o. human hearts that ever the same, l
In vain and in anguish are calling name,
From the unknown world that voice he heard
Though it fell as the dew ON the leaves lin-
stirred,
The voice to the name.
Yet seen and heard is but atom untold.
TO the unseen, unheard, in Gods infinite
fold;
Time is but eternity's brink;
Could we hear if we'd not shrink?
Glad echo's answer the name.

Love Amoung the Peaches.

Several years ago a gentleman living
in this city bought farm near Wyoming,
on the Delaware Railroad just below
Dover. He removed thither with his
wife and only child, a daughter now
about twenty years of age, bright and
accomplished girl. To vary the monotony
of her simple rustic life she taught
music i'll the surrounding neighborhood.
A young man dressed like Il lahorer. but
showing evidence of more refined
nature than his external appearance in
dicated, applied for and obtained work
from the heroine's father. He was a
well-built, pleasant looking fellow,
although not handsome, and wore a
bright auburn beard. A mutual affection
sprang up between the daughter of the
household and the new hand. A sharp
watch was kept on the maiden, but in
one of her usual rounds among her
pupils her lover took advantage of the
opportunity, proposed, was accepted, and
the twain went to the nearest minister,
where they were made one. They
returned later in the evening confessed,
and the newly made wife pleaded for
giveness. Her father became very worth
at her undutiful act, and elected them,
with few articles belonging to them,
from his home, and told them never to
return. They went to her uncle's house,
where they stayed for the night. The
next morning, without any further parley
with the indignant father-in-law, they
went north on the first train, and did
not stop until they reached Albany, in
New York State. To the astonishment
of his wife he here disclosed his true
position-the son of very wealthy parents
and lsfsastff fso1AsesAse<7 Of sf.-es@@-S,
in his own name. He had fled from
home for some folly, but his parents
received their new daughter-in-law
with open arms. A letter of explanation
was sent to her parents at Wyom
ing who were overjoyed at their daugh
ters's good fortune.-JVi Wilmington Ners.

Consumption Cured.

An old physician, retired from practice, hav
ing had plnced in his hands by an East India
missionary the formula of a simple vegetable
remedy for the speedy and permanent cure of
Consumption, Bronchitis Catarrh, Asthma
and ,tll throat and Lung Affections, also q
positive and radical cure of Nervous Debility
and all Nervous Complaints, after having
tested its wonderful curative powers in thous-
ands of cases, has felt it his duty to make it
known to his suffering fellows. Actuated by
this motive and desire to relieve human
suffering, l will send free of charge, to all who
desire it, this recipe. in German, French and
English with full directions for preparing and
using. Sent by mail byaddressing with stamp,

A Frolicsome Arabian Stallion.

A suit was tried in one of our city
courts the other day against Ulysses 5.
Grant, Jr., for injury done to the plain
tiff "a Mr.. Bailey by vicious horse.
Some years ago Gen. Grant had present
ed to him pair of Arabian stations,
which were being kept at his sons farm
in Westchester county. One day one OF
the stations was ridden to store in the
village, and hitched to post. At this
time Mr.. Bailey was coming down the
road in two horse wagon loaded with
eleven cans of milk.
Mr.. Bailey, on the witness stand, told
substantially the following story of what
next happened: The young man who
rode the horse had scarcely entered the
store when the stallion threw up his
head, pulled off the headstall, and start
ed up the road. He came in contact
with the complainant's horses, kicked
and bit them, and crowded them into a
ditch. The stallion then put his fore
feet into wagon, upset the milk cans,
and then he leaped into the wagon like
dog and sat down in the complainant's
lap. Then he kicked Mr.. Bailey over
backward, paved him out OF the wagon,
jumped out, kicked over wagon, tore the
harness, and caused the witness horses
to run away. The horse then paved the
complainant in the face, broke rib on
the left side, injured his spine, badly
bruising his shoulder, and left him un-
conscious upon the frozen ground. Mr.
Bailey was assisted home and has since
been an invalid.
The defense was that U. s. Grant, Jr.,
did not own the horse; that he offered
to settle all damages to wagon, horses,
milk, and harness, and to pay Bailey's
doctor bill, and that the offer was de-
clined. The jury gave Bailey verdict
for So, 900.

TINE EXPONENT OF THE DARWINlAN
THEORY,

At Base Ball game between the
Bcasts--and the game is often
played by beasts-the Monkey, who
sat on first base, put in some pretty
fine work, having practiced with
cocoanuts, in his native cline. The
Camel who was supposed to be
disinterested observer of the game,
thought he too would like to get his
back on, and do little showing off.
AS ill-luck would have it, however,
he missed an easy fly, whereat the
Beasts waxed highly indignant as
we'll as the Camel and drew odious
comparisons betwixt the case in
point and the Scriptural text about
"straining at gnat,"
The Monkey gave him the last
straw and after breaking his back
remarked:
You'd better stick to hump
ring"
This saying exasperated the as
sembled multitude even more than
the Cancels muff, and Darwin $
brother was promptly expired.
MORAL: IT'S better to be an I'm
pire in Base Ball match than a
funny man, --LJe.

BOLD ROBBERY

A daring ROBBERY was committed at the
Wells Bros. restaurant on West Douglas
avenue night before last or early Yesterday
morning. About 3 O'Clock in the morning
&. b. Davis, guest, came down stairs and
told one of the proprietors that some one
had been in his room and robbed him of S
and a revolver. Mr.. Wells and Davis ther
went up stairs but could find no one but
guests who had registered their names at the
hotel. Wells then told Davis to watch thai
no one left the house,wh he went in search
ola policeman. He soon returned with Off
Ger Snyder and they proceeded TO search the
house and the guests, but instead of finding
any clue TO who the thief could be, they
found that G. w. Black, another guest who
registered from Sedgewick City, had been
relieved Of S27. II appears that the parties
left their room doors open.
A memorandum book belonging TO Davis
was found at the foot of the stairs, and the
two poeket-books minus the money were
found in the back yard, but no clue TO the
robber could be found.
The proprietors offer $50 reward for the
apprehension and conviction of the thief
