New YORK, Dec. 5.-The Worlds
Washington special of November 30
says; A society paper here officially
announces the engagement of James
Bayard, eldest son of the Secretary of
State, to Miss Deakins of Fort Pendle-
ton, w. Va. This is the sequel of the
romance of young Bayard's experience
at Sugg's Fort in that State. Young
Bayard, on account of q foolish esca-
pads with Butler Malone and one or
two other sons of Senators several
years ago, was arrested by the Wash
ington police. The boys were dis
charged after . slight reprimand.
Mr.. Bayard was greatly mortified and
sent his son home to Delaware. He
has since forbidden his return to
Warrington. The father virtually
cast off his son, as he would not OBJ
serve his wishes. Last winter young
Bayard taught school in the noun
tain town of Sugg's Fort, under the
protecting wing of ex-senator Henry
G.. Davis. 1t was during his winters
residence in the place that young
Bayard fell in love with Miss Deakins.
The latter is the daughter of an honest
farmer. During the winter Miss
Deakins found employment at little
hotel at Suggs's Fort, and it was there
that young Bayard met her. 1t is
said that they became engaged last
winter, and that the marriage was to
take place as soon as the Secretary's
SON could get an Office.
1t is understood that ex-senator
Henry G. Davis procured the appoint
ment of Secretary Of Arizona Terri
tory for young Bayard, 80 as to get
him AS far away from West Virginia
as possible and prevent a marriage
that would not be approved by the
proud Secretary of State. The ap-
pointment was procured through the
Joint influence of ex-senator Davis
and Senator German, as the Secretary
would not even listen to doing any
thing for his willful son. Whatever
may have been the motives of Messrs.
German and Davis, young Bayard re-
mains loyal to his mountain sweet
| heart The official announcement of
the engagement indicates that young
Bayard will not so west until he can
take Miss Deakins with him as his
wife, 1t is understood that the Sec
rotary of State still refuses to recogn-
ize his son i'll any way.

EDITOR DAILY TOMBSTONE The
Fowler brothers Of Dos Cabezas, are
the owners of the largest and best
gold mines in Arizona. Their mines
are located in the Dos Cabezas noun
tains, in what 10 known as the Mineral
Park. They were in Wilcox to-day
and shipped away bar Of gold, val
ued at two thousand and eight dollars,
that they had taken from five days
run with five stamp MILL They say
that their mines have improved very
much since they commenced working
them. They also brought in some
very rich specimens, which were
placed on exhibition at the Eureka
House, which were examined and adj
mired by many OF our citizens, who
were surprised to learn that there was
such rich ore in that district. There
are five members of the Fowler family
and they do all their own work, in the
mines and at the mill, and whenever
their larder need replenishing, or they
are in need of ready money they start
up their little mill and clean up 81 900
or 81 500 in five or six days. 1t would
be well worth a visit to these mines,
and the brothers will cheerfully show
them around as they like to have
visitors. Too much praise cannot be
given these men, who by perseverance
and hard work, have unearthed bo-
mama in the mountain fastness Il

Grants Decision of Character.

rICm the Philadelphia Ledger, July 10th.
Grant as boy and young man was like most
young fellows, differing from them in but few
things. The great points in his character began
to show at the time when he undertook the
discharge of important public duties. From
that period he exhibited that decision of char
acter which has ever since been SO conspicuous
in his mental make up and which was one of his
most valuable traits. He rarely doubted or
showed any sign of hesitation about what course
TO take when action was necessary. 1t is not
given to all men to see the way at important
ana critical moments as clearly as he did, and
TO decide on sight as truly what was the right
thing to do at the moment. But it is within
reach OF every man, who Is a competent free
agent, to avoid that "indecisiOn" which is so
great h1nderer in the conduct of this world
affairs. This weakness Grant never seemed to
know. Having the quality of decision he
was man OF action; man who did things
rather than one who talked about doing
them. Without intending. to substitute
intended to do, still that was the effect of his
modes OF thought and action. He was an ex-
emplar and personificaton of what the word
DUTY means From the day when he went into
men, and having responsibilities of his own
ms nrst and last thought was to do his duty
faithfully, as duty should always be done. II
he was ordered to do duty he obeyed promptly,
questioning the authority that had the right to
command him, and accomplishing as to any
personal discomfort or sacrifice. II the duty
came 70 MIN when he was commanding officer
ne kept IL steadily iii view and performed 1t in
the same spirit. AS to all this his career fur
nlshes great example. He was human enough
10 err, but making mistakes as he did, and as
he himself frankly and sincerely admitted he
was man enough to confess them and large
MINDED enough TO attempt to rectify them, and
whenever 1t was within his reach to try to
make reparation. Commonplace as this virtue

A Sea Dream.

Once more
Beside the placid, slumbe ring summer sea,
The maiden fair
Walks forth at morn and bfeathes in ecstacy
The saline air,
Before
The glowing sun pours down his scorching rays
Upon the strand
When yet the dawnings soft and feecy haze
Floats Ger the sand.
The maid,
With pleasure beaming In her fair, sweet face
And Joyous air,
Goes to bathing house with leisure pace,
And enters there.
Arfayed
In tasteful bathing suit she reappears
How exquisite!
Now down the beachehe yoes, the water nears
And enters it.
With glee
The maiden gambols In the vavelets there
Now I'D the beach Ah n MIfb or %s So and
Behold her go.
Her dancing up the strand, with laughter gay.
Joy in her eye,
Whowould havethought a threat ming cloud that
Was III her sky,
".
The row
VI Dathlng houses she has reached at last:
She pauses there.
And many searching glance doth round her cast
With frightened air.
Now flow
Inc prlny Tears: her senses In q whirl,
The bath house number she's forgot-the girl
Can't find her clothes!
