he became correspondent for the New

he was shot through the base of the
skull He caught heavy cold while
lying wounded on the battlefield, and
his wound in the lungs troubled him
SO much.that his life was despaired of and
he was victim of rapid consumption.
One day during violent fit of coughing
the doctor brought up piece of his over
coat, which had been shot into his lungs
ten years before. The election Of this
cause of irritation so relieved him that he
at once became better. and finally COM

his wife he thought nothing more about 1t
until the other day she brought to him a
little flower-pot containing small plant
looking like fuschia and standing four
inches high. 1t bears a number of small
leaves on its slender stem and shows
every evidence Of life. This twig had

Cupid's Flight From Pennsylvania.
IDunkirk IN. J.) Observer.

A girl with orange blossoms in her hair,
iuttering ribbons and white dress, got
on the B. N. & p. train for Niagara Falls
last Thursday at Tyronvilla, Crawford
County, Pa. she was accompanied by a
very devoted young man and a clerical
looking parsonage. 1t did not take long
for the passengers to make up their minds
that wedding was on hand, but there
was a general surprise when it trans
pired that the cerem ony would be on the
train. People crowded into the car in
which they were, and near Mayville their
curiosity was rewarded by sight of the
service. The marriage license law of
Pennsylvania drove the pair away from
home for the wedding.
