AGED IA. a son of Judge Batterton, Deer
Lodge, left home riding his own horse'and
saddle and has not returned. A letter was
received by his mother from him dated at
Helena, Friday evening, saying he had been
hired to work BY a man named Rotter and
was going to St. Paul. Judge Batterton went
to Helena but could obtain no trace of him
or of Rotter. The boy had been accused of
being one Of those who broke the school
/ house windows, but he denied it, and it is
now positively known he was not guilty.
| he was doubtless excessively mortified at
the charge and determined to leave on that
| account. His parents are very sad over his
| departure, but he was q good boy and will
turn up all right after q little. Many good
bows run way at the age of IA. We did our
| self. Nothing worse ever happens them
than getting in the newspaper business.

The medical world has received
a genuine slap in the face at Cam
bridge. A young woman who, ~
months ago, was stabbed in the chest
with sword-stick by her lover, has
always maintained that some of the
steel has remained in her body. She
was reasoned with in the usual pro-
fessional way, assured that the thing
was impossible, and complimented
upon the strength of her imagina-
ton. Everyone who has had a grit
in his eye, and been told that it is
"only little inflammation probably
derived from cold," will understand
what was said to her. The other
day, however, there was extracted
from between her shoulders piece
of steel blade more than Gin. in
length, so that even the doctors
have been compelled to admit that
(though, no doubt, the patient was
highly fanciful) there was really
something in it,"

A California miner, having amassed
quite fortune, was returning by ship
to revisit old friends and to find him
self wife. A young woman on board
the ship, serving in the capacity Of
nursery goyerness to the family of a
merchant on board, pleased him much
by her neat and modest appearance.
He therefore introduced himself one
day, and broke the ice of his purpose
with one reckless plunge: Madam, my
name is -, my parents and family
reside in New Hampshire; I have
property amounting to 100000, and
expect to engage in business in-. j
am perfectly temperate man. and I
can give you good reference to testify
to my general upright character. I
am unmarried, and want wife; will
you marry me?" The lady took in the
character of her sutor at once. "Thank
YOU" said she, II will" and on land
ing they were forthwith married.
How the Princess Louise of Savoy
ever recovered from her humiliation
after having offered herself in marriage
to Charles, Duke of Bourbon, only to
receive a grave but positive refusal few
women can understand. Ladies', how
ever, are permitted to assist bashful
wooer when
Either he fears his fate too much
Or his desert too small,
Who fears to put it to the touch
And win or lose it all
Such was tho case with the young
lady who assured her lover that she
could make beautiful cake, all filed
with fruit, with ring on the top, and
when the astonished swain exclaimed
"Why, that is wedding cake!" re-
piled: II meant wedding" and which
brought matters to q crisis immedi-
ately.
More shrewd still was the Young
lady-and more daring-who told her
admirer that she was mind-reader,
and could read what was going on in
his mind at that moment; that he
wanted to propose to her but did not
know how to do it, which, of course,
relieved the young man from his en-
barrassment permanently.
A very bashful man having succeeded
in winning wife, a lady relative leased
him to tell her how he ever plucked up
courage enough to propose.
"Now, tell me the truth, N, I"
said she; did not the lady have to
do the counting for you?"
"N-no," answered the gentleman
"but own she smoothed over the hard
places for me-"
And this seems to be the ladies mis-
sion III courtship-to smooth over the
hard places.
