 HER LOVE COST THREE LIVES. An Exciting Triple Tragedy Caused By

 ATLANTA, Sept. 10.-Ida Maxwell, a pret- ty girl, eluded the vigilance of her parents and met her lover, J. Shelton, and they were married. The young couple went to the res idence of the groom's mother on Oliver street. Miss Maxwell's father and brother armed themselves with pistols and presented them selves at Shelton's house. The father threat ened to shoot Shelton, whereupon the latter picked up hatchet. Young Maxwell, to protect his father, stepped in between and received the blow cn the head. Then the old man and Shelton fired simultaneously st each other. Shelton was mortally and Max well seriously wounded. Great excitement followed, and only the prompt action of the police in taking Maxwell to the calaboose prevented his being roughly handled. It is thought that the three men will die.

A Modest Little Girl.

Mrs. McSpilkins is one of the most
precise and dignifed ladies in Austin,
and moving in the most aristocratic
circles. A few days ago her aristo-
cratic sensibilities received shock, that
prostrated her on bed of sickness.
She went to store on Austin avenue
accompanied by her little girl Maud,
aged ten. There was quite number
of gentlemen in the store. Mrs. Nc
Spilkins wished to buy hat for John
ny. who had been left at home, and
knowing that his head was the same
size as Maud's, she commenced trying
boys hats on Maud. None of the hats
fit and Maud grew very tired having
boys hats tried on her head. AT
last Mrs. McSpilkins said to the
clerk -
"You have got 10 hats here of the
right size, but | wish you would lei

What Makes "a Girl popular.

What is it that determines girls
popularity in society? is a question
often heard in these days of social
strife and aggrandizement, and ques-
ton that no one is quite able to an
swer in word. 1t is not because she
is well dressed, or even pretty it is
not that her fairy god-mother bestow-
ed Il witty tongue to amuse the dull
lards it is not because she is rarely
intelligent or highly educated or so
"amiable"-no, none OF these desirable
qualities would render the popular
girl more popular than she is, though
perhaps she is fortunate enough to
possess one or more OF them for her
stock in trade. The girl everybody
likes need have neither mony nor
beauty, which, in the worlds estima-
ton, constitute social power; but she
must have and does have gracious
manner, certain graceful bearing,
decided intelligence, instructive gem
erosity, and above all, the greatest
gift ever awarded to woman-personal
magnetism.

There are minds on which travel

do not come home improved by the
advantages of a change Of scene, but
so altered that their friends are scarce
ly able TO recognize them. And, in
deed, they are often unwilling to re-
cognize their acquaintances. Some
years ago, says an exchange, there
lived in village which is now includ-
ed within the limits of Clinton, a
blacksmith who was possibly named
Green.
One day a new customer drove up,
a young man who was, however, not a
stranger to the old gentleman. He had
once been called Blodgctt, but he had
returned from Europe considerably
Frenchifcd, as well as Anglicised, and
his name had been transformed into
Blogee.
He wanted shoe set, and after the
job had been completed, took out his
purse and inquired -
"Aw-how much is the chawge?"
The reply came short and sharp i:
"Half a dollar"
"Hawf dollah, hawf a dollah? ?
Weally, I've been out OF the country
so long that / don't know what hawf
a dollah is, you know" answed Mr..
Blogec, giving the man one dollar
bill.
The blacksmith stood for a moment
in speechlcss amdzement. Just this
sort of human specimen had never
come within his observation before.
Then thrusting the bill into one pock-
ct, he drew forth a quarter from the
other. saying as he gave 1t to the re-
turned traveller -

like corporations, have no souls.
On account of the hard times, coats
are now worn longer than usual.
The spring has been so cold and
backward that dog pants are scarcely
seen.
1t is a nohby thing for policemen
in dispensing charity to distribute
fall wraps among the poor.
Feather-trimmcd suits are very styl-
sh and young chickens are discardini
their ova coats for them.
Many young married ladies, obliged
to wear last Springs clothes, prefer
divorce suits.
Four pockets in the vest without
any money in them, although not
popular, are nevertheless, worn more

a Repeating Shot Gum.

In the window of one of the Broad
way gun stores is q peculiar looking
shot gun Beneath the ordinary long
barrel is one of half the length that
appears to be a solid bar. The metal
work about the lock is heavily plated
with gold, and the stock is very orna-
mental. A placard beneath says:
"Made to order for the Sultan of Tur-
key"
To young man who wanted to
know, clerk said:
That is repeating shot gun. The
invention is new, the gun having been
brought out last September. The
short barrel under the long one will
hold six metal cartridges. A long
coiled spring throws them back as the
mechanism is operated to throw out
the empty shell and load the gun with
fresh one. The little cylinder of
wood that encircles the lower barrel is
showed backward and forward in load
ing and cooking the gun. 1t can be
loaded and discharged six times in
three seconds. For certain purposes
1t is admirable. We sold ten OF them
to silver mining company in Mexco,
last week. The men who guard the
silver trains over the mountains will
use them to disorganze the attacking
Greasers. Six loads of buckshot in
three seconds will persuade band of
Greasers to do anything that is want
ed OF them. For this purpose the bar
rels are cut off halfthe ordinary length
so that the buckshot will scatter more.
We do not expect to substitute repeat
ers for upland sporting, but they will
be unequaled in shooting ducks from
copefp
"What is the price?"
"The ordinary blued barrel retails at
$50. The one made to order for the
Sultan, which ia genuine order by
the way will cost him $500, The ex-
ira price is all i'll the filagree work."

The Origin of the Fan.

The following pretty story gives the
Chinese legend about the origin of
the fan One evening, when the beau
tiful Kau 81, daughter of powerful
Chinese mandarin, was assisting at
the great feast of lantens, she was so
overcome by the heat that she was
obliged to take off her mask. But to
expose her face to the eyes of the
profame and vulgar was serious Of
Tense against the law, so, holding the
mask as closely as possible to her feat
ures, she rapidly huttered it to give
herself air, and the rapidity of the
movement still concealed her. The
other ladies present, witnessing this
hardy but charming innovation, imi-
tated it, and at once 10000 hands were
liuttering 10000 masks. Thus the
fan was evoked and took the place of
the mask.
