He drew forth his gossamer coat from
his game-bag and threw it around her
shoulders.

began, and then julie came dashing
through the brush crying:
Miss Milicent! Miss Milicent! I've
been hunting for you everywhere
Come! It's going to rain, and they
have all gone off to the farm house. y
Then he stopped in astoniShment at
the sight of the brOad-shouldered
stranger and his two dogs.
Il have just been advising the young
lady to 90 there" the gentleman said.
II guess we had better 60" Milicent
observed, turning to julie, and making
a motion to lay aside the gossamer.

walk ove to the farm house myself"
So they started all three together.
Mrs. Pointdexter and the rest of us
were already seated on the broad old
fashioned piazza when they came hurry
ing up out of the rain. :,
Not being a prey to alarm, we could
Judge dispassionately of the gentle
mans appearance, and all of us thought
him decidedly good-looking-in short,
quite ''sketchable.'
ASK him if he'd mind posing, Mrs.
P~ointdexter," Mabel Warlng said in
French, when the stranger had seated
himself like the rest of us to wait for
the passage of the storm. Dear knows
how long we may have to stay here;
and I'm sure he'd make a fine sketch

The moment she had spoken she had
regretted it, for she saw the stranger
understood French. He turned with
perfect ease of manner, and said:
Il shall be happy TO do so. Shall

The stranger drew out a card and
handed ii to julie, and while he was
reading the name, s.Neil Halleck," and
passing it to his mother, the stranger
drew forth a letter addressed to himself
in q fine scholarly hand.

julie, who read it with much pleasure.
1t proved to be in the warmest terms
of familiar friendship, and was so
strong an evidence of the stranger s
good character, that he was at once re-
ceived with open arms.
The posing was forgotten in the coy
chat which ensued.

Instances of Business Ambition.

1t is matter of great pride with many
that when they die their houses viii go
on under che same name they gave to
them. 1t was a frequent boast of the
late James Gordon Bennett that when
he died it would not be necessary to
change the name of the proprietor at
the head of the editorial page of the
Herald, as his son and successor bore
the same name. Years before, while
still in the old Nassau and Fulton street
building, he had given orders that the
door of the office should never be closed
nor the publication of the paper sus-
pended for any cause.
The original Harper Brothers had
this same desire in the later years OF
their lives. Ihave heard Fletcher Har-
per say with evident qualification that
the business of the house was such that
It -@e:Siiaa not DO possible TO suspend
work entirely on the death of either
member, and that there were sons
enough of the original four to perpetuate
the firm title of Harper & Brothers
almost indefinitely.
/ am told that Robert Bonner is en-
gagged in making a curious provision for
continuing the New York Ledger after
his death in the same style in which he
has been conducting it for about thirty
years. He holds, sol understand, thai
it will take his successor fully three
years to learn his methods so as to Sc.
lect the class Of literary material which
has given the Ledger its peculiar sue
cess. He has, therefore, begun to col.
lect extra material with the design o
securing enough to last three years
after his death. Already about enough
copy for one year, or fifty-two numbers,
has been accumulated .-New York Trib.

A Palace Tragedy.

nj. Maspero added an incident of a PEE
culiarly horrible character to the story
of the unwrapping of the royal mum
mics of Deir-el- Bahari. Among them
was found the body of man between
25 and 30 years of age, bearing neither
name nor inscription of any kind, which
is by itself an extraordinary circum-
stance. Instead of having been en-
balmed in the usual way, the body had
merely been dried by some skillful pro-
cess, without removing any internal or
gans, and had been covered with thick
layer of some mixture at once fatty and
caustic. Above all, the attitude of the
corpse, its bent legs, its feet turned
against each other, its clenched hands,
the expression of its facial combined
TO indicate that the unknown person had
died in extreme agony.
At first NJ. Maspero was tempted to
suspect that he had come across case of
the enbalmmentof living mana form
of murder which it is not difficult to
reconcile with Egyptian usage. Medical
men, however, who had been consulted,
were disposed rather to recognize the
symptoms of poisoning. In any case, we
are brought face to face with palace
tragedy, for body found among the
royal mummies of Deir-el- -Bahari can
hardly be other than that of princely

In Switzerland, out of 48J, 900 house
holds 465, 900 are householders. Here is
one secret of the remarkable patriotism
and prosperity of that people, and of
their comparative exemption from labor
troubles. Their excellent public schools
and twenty nine industrial schools, all
topped up by their grand poly technic
institute at Zurich, including the same
practical works as that of this Worces-
ter industrial institute, have wonder
fully unified the homecoming and
home-loving people of those twenty-five
cantons.
Though separate in race, religion and
language, they are one in natural inter-
est. proud of their history and prouder
still of their recent progress and manu-
featuring prosperity. They are an in
genious and industrious people, and
their mechanics are educated and skill

key, like the plaintlve ditties Of the

Those old songs, too, prove that the
subjects OF King Montezuma were some
thing more than architectural bar
barians. They treat of war and
the chase, the adventures, pas
sions and superstitions of bygone
ages, and some old rhymes,
which the Indian miners of Anahuac
still crone at their solitary camp-fires
have an almost Buddhistic tendency,
lamenting the evils of life and its disap-
pointed hopes. Even their erotic melo-
dies, with all the usual admixture of
asensuous caterwauling,D have become
popular enough in their Spanish trans
lations to find favor with Madrid audi

The Florences appeared last night In
that very well constructed bit of iarcl'
cal dramatization, "The Flirt." 1t was
the first time the piece had been put on
the boards here. The rendition last
night was all that could be expected.
The house was good in numbers, and de-
cidedly an appreciative one. All pres
ent enjoyed every witty line and absurd
situation in the play to the fullest extent
and frequently called the clever Mr.. and
Mrs. Florence before the curtain. The
support was used to better advantage in
"Ihe Flirt" than in any other play OF
the week. There was no weak spot OBJ
servable.
For the ladies' is given little sketch
Of Mrs. Florence's hats, as follows
A hst worn with the Indian dress" in

faced with shirred cherry satin. and the
crown is adorned with combination OF
blue and scarlet in satin and feathers. An

Leghorn bonnet has a garniture of blush

Partisan bonnet OF shrimp crepe trimmed
With perpendicular loops of the same, and
edged with moulded beads, is charming.
Two other Leghorn Gainsboroughs are
tr,nmed the one with garnet and blue, the
other with cherry, in the same style. The
lingerie of the wardrobe is exquisite.

weight of bewldering vista of toys and

saw displayed books, albums, drums, wag-

ware, queer little black dogs on stands, ele-

SDeath of Miss Mary Coulter.

The many friends of MIR. and Mrs. b.
F. Coulter will be panied to leaIn of the
death Of their daughter, Mary Belle
Coulter, which occurred yesterday.
Miss Mary left school about six months
ago in excellent health. but shortly after
wards a catarrhal trouble developed,
which, despite the best of treatment,
steadily grew worse. Finally catarrh-
al fever set in, which, with other COM
plications, caused her death. Miss
Mary was in her fifteenth year, bright,
intelligent and mucn beloved by all
who knew her. Her death, although
sudden, was not unexpected, as some
time since it became apparent that her
disease must sooner or later prove fatal.
The funeral will take place to-day at 2
P. NJ. from the family residence, lis
North Charity street, near Temple.
