HANcocK'S coURTsHiP.

How the Hero Of Gettysburg Becum0
Acquainted with His Wiz.
After Hancock graduated from West
Point his first duty was in connection
with an exploring party in the West.
On his way there he stopped for a short
time at St. Louis, and it was his custom
here to take a horseback ride every
morning. As he rode down one Of the
streets one bright sunny day when it
was still early, he saw at the window Of
one of the tinest-looking houses of tho
city very beautiful young lady. His
eye caught hers as he passed. and he
involuntarily raised his hat. The young
lady blushed, waved her hand at him,
and then stepped back into the
shadow. As the story goes. it was q
case of love at first sight on Hancock's
part. Morning after morning he rode
past that house hoping to see her again.
At last one day he passed by ON foot just
as she was leaving the house ON the arm
of an old gentleman. The lady recOg-
nized him again, as he could see by her
bushes, but she did not bow. and
Just as he passed she entered . car
riage. The old gentleman followed her,
and the two drove rapidly away. I
shall not describe how Hancock took 3
cab and kept the carriage in sight. nor
how gratified he was when after a short
ride he saw it draw up at the door of
one of his old army comrades. A
moment later he had dismissed the cab.
and knocked at his friends house. His
friend met him in the hall, and in .
stammering way he asked for an intro
duction to the lady. A moment later he
was taken into the parlor and intro
duced to Miss Almira Russell and her
father. Old Mr.. Russell was one of the
rich merchants of St. Louis. He took
quickly to Hancock, and before he left
the house that afternoon the young
officer received a hearty invitation To
call, which, by the way, the young
lady seconded. Hancock did call. and
he called often. The pretty young lady
seemed to be as much attracted to the
CAV Young Lieutenant as the Lieutenant
was to her. After a short courtship
they became engaged. and a short time
later were married.-CayP, IN Cleveland

When Mr.. Randall was suffering
from the govt at Washington one day a
newspaper correspondent called at his
committee room for some information,
and was cut short with q very abrupt
reply. The ex-spcaker, noticing the
visitors look of surprise at this unusual
reception. asked him: "Have you any

aged to hoist it to the surface, but could
not get more than third of the body
out of the water at time. 1t belonged
to the group of rays or skate. The COM
mon name is sea vampire or sea bat
He has no fins but uses the extended
flaps of the body as means of propul-
sion, and as he moves through the
water looks very much like huge bat;
hence, suppose, the name vampire.
The tail has shriveled up until there is
nothing left but long, slender ray, five
feet in length and slender as whip
stick, a ludicrous appendage for such a
monster. The measurement from side
to side was twenty ioet, and the length
about eighteen feet. We had no means
of determining its weight, but authori-
ties say that such vampire weighs
from three to four tons.
The head is the part of greatest in
terest. The mouth is three feet by one
foot, and perfectly regular and oval in
shape. It is beautifully white and
smooth inside, and without the least
trace of tooth. At each angle of the
mouth are strange, nondescript, fleshv
proterbances about eighteen inches long
and standing out obliquely. The
creature no doubt feeds on small organ
isms of some kind. and when swimming
rapidly in the tideways is able by means
of these organs to direct into his mouth
larger amount of food than he could
otherwise obtain.
The gills are q marvel of beauty.
They are six in number, three on each
side about two feet long and six inches
wide. They are furnished with about
fifty pockets each, opening inwardly,
but closed on the outside by q most
delicately wrought net work of little
arches studded with points, and fitting

to awaken a sense of sneaking de-
ficiency. and he woke still drawing in
vidious comparisons between himself
and all of them. If Iris Endcrby was
to have this startling effect on his moral

man tobe scorned. knowing that he de-
serves scorn; but before q week was
over Warrington was SO madly in love
with Iris Enderby that he thought he
would rather be scorned by her than
worshiped by any other woman. He
did his utmost, humbly and persistently,
to win her liberation. To do him JUS
tee, it was always her federation. never
her love. Dick had most of the vices in
the calendar; but there was no cold
blOoded calculation about him, and but
little self-conceit. He knew that he had
nothing to do with Iris Enderby, vet he
was fain to cOnciliate her by word or
action. by the delicate courtesies that
please women. He had been q gentle

he would try to fall into the old ways
again for the last time. 1t was easier
than he had thought.
But Iris never changed. She was al
ways courteous, sometimes kindly; but
the look of scorn in her eyes seemed to

to pass away.
For five weeks he saw her daily-deft.

died. His death was sudden at the last,
and only Warrington and his wife were
