A Conversation Which May Have Very
 Serious Consequences.
 Birdie McGinnis and Esmerelda Long coffin are rival belles of Austin. AL though great personal friends outward ly they hate each other for all they are worth, and never allow chance to say a mean thing to pass unimproved.
 At recent party Birdie said to Els merelda:
 "You have no idea how much I am annoyed by these University students. Yesterday that Tom Anjerry followed me the whole afternoon while I was out calling"
 '.He does that to save your reputa- tion," replied Esmerelda, smiling maliciously
 "What do you meaH?"
 ''He runs after you so people can't say that you are running after him. If he didn't run after you, you would be chasing him all over Austin" said Es- merelda.

CURIOUS PHENOMENON.

Queer Results of the Use of Cometi,
 Whitewashing Compounds.
 A celebrated Parisian belle, who had acquired the habit of whitewashing her. self, so to speak, from the soles of her feet to the roots of her hair, with chem, ically-prepared cosmetics, one day took a medicated bath, and, on emerging from it, she was mortified to find herself as black as an Ethiopian. The trans formation was complete; not a vestige of the supreme Caucasian race" wa! left Her physician was sent for in alarm and haste.

You are no longer awoman, but 'sulphide' ' It is not now question of m medicinal treatment, but simple chemical reac- ton. I shall subject you to a bath of sulphuric acid diluted with water. The acid will have the honor of combining with you; it will take mp the sulphur, the metal will produce 'sulphate, and we shall find as a 'precipitate' very pretty woman."

THE DORR REBELLION.

Death of Squire White, a Prominent
 Figure in That Fight For Suffrage.
 The recent death of Squire White, in Quinebang, Conn.,, at the age of eighty eight, recalls the famous Dorr rebellion in Rhode Island, in which he was one of the leaders. Under the old charter of Rhode Island the right of suffrage was limited to men hoIding certain amount of real estate and to their eldest sons. Many attempts to secure more exten- sive basis of suffrage had been made without success, wben in 1840 suffrage associations were formed throughout the State and the subject of equal repre- sentation in the Legislature was widely agitated. The movement was led by Thomas Wilson Dorr and Squire White, who was then prominent lawyer in Providence, was one of Doris most trusted Eeutenants. A mass meeting was held by the suffragists in Provi- dence, July ,, 1S41, at which a State Convention was called to frame a con- stitution. The constitution prepared by this convention was submitted to the people on December 27, 28 and 29, and it was claimed that fourteen thousand votes were cast for its adop- ton, which was majority of the adult male citizens of the State. Under this constitution, which the Gen. eral Assembly ignored as not having been framed or submitted to the people under the proper forms of law, the sui fragists proceeded to hold a State elec- tion on April IS, 1S42, and Thomas Wilson Dorr was declared elected Gov ernor. On May MT. Dorr made an attempt to organize his government in Providence, but he was arrested by Gov ernor Samuel w. King, who was at the head of the legal Government of the State. On May IS number of the fol- lowers of Dorr appeared in Providence under arms and tried to secure the ar- senal, but on the approach of Governor King they fled in disorder. Another show of force was made on June 25, at Chepachet, ten miles from Providence, but the ''rebels'' again dispersed. On the first sight of the bayonets of the State soldiers Dorr fled, but was cap- tured, tried and convicted of high treason, and sentenced, on June 9, 1884, to imprisonment for life. Two years later, however, he was released under an act of general amnesty, and in 1851 his civil and political rights were restored. Squire White leaves a son, c. P. White, of Westborough, one brother in Worcester and another in Brooklyn.-iSt Louis Globe Democrat.

A ROMANTIC STORY.
The Love Episode Recalled by Senor Mu

The Love Episode Recalled by Senor Mu-
 ruaga's Arrival at Washington.
 The new Spanish Minister, Senor Mu- ruaga, who has recently taken charge of the legation here, is an old-timer, and has many acquaintances in the city. lie was educated at the Jesuit College in Georgetown, D. O., and was subse- quently Secretary of Legation here, as his father was before him. Heis very accomplished man, and speaks five languages in addition to his own. He is a widower, his wife, who was Russian lady, having died several years ago. Ills daughter is the wife of Senol Iturbide, nephew of the former Elm. peror of Mexico, whom she married when Senor Muruaga was Minister h the latter country.
 A romantic story is told of Muruag; while he was Secretary of Legation ir Washington many years ago. At thai daughter of MT. w. w. Corcoran, the well-known philanthropist and million aire, and became engaged to her. MT. Corcoran seriously objected to the mar riage of his daughter to a foreigner, whose reputation was that of rather free man among women, and, accom- ]. panied by Senator Bright, of Indiana, MT. Corcoran called upon Don Calderon de la Baria, the Spanish. Minister, to in- form him that the engagement be- tween his Secretary of Legation and MT. Corcoran's daughter must be broken of. The Minister promised to do every thing in his power to gratify Mr. Corcoran S wishes, and notified his attache that his relatious with the young lady must cease. The young man became very angry and chal- lenged Mir. Corcoran to fight a duel. The young lady sent for her lover and admitted him into the house through the back door, but their interview was interrupted by MT. Corcoran, who was informed by a servant of what was go- ing on. Leaving his books he hurried home, and when his daughter saw him coming she got her lover to conceal himself under the piano. He was dis covered, however, by MT. Corcoran, and kicked out of the house. Mir. Cor coran then went to Mir. Buchanan, who was Secretary of State, and in- sisted that the young man should be sent back to Spain immediately. MT. Buchanan said that there was no way to bring that about without offending the Government of Spain, and de- clined to do it, and the two gentle men never spoke thereafter. But the young couple got tired of their engage ment in due time, and the young lady married Mir. George Eusts, mem Der of Congress from Louisiana, and an uncle of the present Senator from that State.

LAKE GENEVA.
The Most Beautiful of Switzerland's In
 numerable Mountain Lakes.

The Most Beautiful of Switzerland's In numerable Mountain Lakes.
 The extremest depth of the lake is up- wards of thousand feet, and the high est of the mountains which guard its repose are several thousands of feet high. Its deep blue color separates 1t from all other lakes of Switzer- land, whose waters are mostly green; and this, its individuality of color, is a phenomenon which has never been definitely explained. In other respects, too, it has a character of its own, and is mystery. It is subject to sudden and unaccountable fluctuations of level, amounting sometimes to several feet; tidal waves, as it were, which flow indifferently from end to end or from side to side. The melting snow of the Alps swell it to it's utmost volume in the summer; but the coldest winters never freeze it entirely over. Where dwells the invisible spirit of this lake, and what is that spirit, presiding so si- lently but imperiously over it's character and life? Trout swim its depths. Wild swans skim over its surface. Ducks, sea swallows and the white-winged gull sport in the air above it. The chestnut tree, the magnolia, the trumpet-creeper, the cedar, the fig and the pomegranate join with the vine in the decoration of its shores. The hand of man has added castle and chateau, chalet and villa, until the whole northern shore and parts of the southern have become circlet of habitation, nestled in beds of living green, contrasting in fine harmony with the lake GeneUG Cor. iot
