HINTS ON MARRIAGE.

Why Young Couples Should Not Live in
 Boarding-HOuses.
 While the Chicago Journals Stroller counsels early marriage as rule he does not believe in the marrying of children; and there are cases where if people waited until they were sixty years old they would not have sense enough to make it a success. These are the cases where marriage is failure. And young men should be careful to get helpmeet, with all that it implies, instead of helpeat, as somebody has said. Some old crusty has defined getting mar ried as ''an abstract desire on the part of young man to pay some nice young lady's board" Now the idea of a young couple in moderate circumstances going to boarding after getting married is one of the most ridiculous things l can conceive. If the girl does not want to go to housekeeping, she shouldn't get married. If they haven't money enough to start keeping house, wait until they have, and they will appreciate it so much the more. Tbey'n never save any money while boarding. had a young friend who was boarding in private family, and who be- came smitten with the charms of his land- lady's daughter and married her. And in- stead of going to housekeeping, they con- tinued boarding with her ma, and whereas the aforesaid young lady had been doing office work down town, now she can stay at home and play lady, and visit and gossip as only people who have lived in boarding houses know how, and he, poor fellow, has his nose to the grindstone earning enough to pay their board, where when he was counting her he had only his own to pay. Shrewd mamma, sharp daughter. Verify she had what the vulgar would call 9 'ssnap." Young people. if you will get married go to housekeeping, even if you only have money enough to furnish one room. You'll be the happier and never regret it. And always live within your income. Do not build in advance on raise in salary which may not come.

ANOTHER FIGHT PROBABLE.
Jimmy Nelson Anxious to Settl
 Matters With Jack McClennan.

Jimmy Nelson Anxious to Settle
 Matters With Jack McClennan.
 Jimmy Nelson returned Saturday from New York, where he had been spending a week with relatives and fill ing an engagement in Brooklyn, spar ring with Jack McAuliffe Wednesday evening. Jimmy is somewhat deter mined in his comments upon his recent fight with McClennan of Waterbury, and is very anxious to again meet the Ear mer,' but under conditions that will admit of equality in all things. Had Nelson been trained to as fine and en- during condition as was McClennan, an entirely different result would have been reached, as it was admitted that in the matter of science he was far ahead of his opponent, but lacked staying powers, not having had time to recover from the severe nine days training which he went through to bring himself to a fair fighting trim. Nelson has now issued a challenge to fight McClennan for $500 a side, with skin gloves, within six weeks from date of signing articles, the chal- lenge providing for the presence of but twenty-five men on each side, and the fight to occur at a point half way be- tween Waterbury and New London. This challenge is also intended to take in Cahill, who recently desired to meet Nelson but failed to answer his chal- lenge Nelson's packers are prepared to post their money on twenty-four hours notice. A party of New Haven gentle men talk of putting up state light weight championship belt, to be valued at $500, and if the fight between Nelson and McClennan is arranged the winning of this belt will be an important consid
 eration.-New London Telegraph.

A KENTUCKY ROMANCE.
How tho Present Governor of That Stats
 Lost and ReGained His Fortune.

How tho Present Governor of That Stats
 Lost and ReGained His Fortune.
 "Did you ever hear how General Simon Bolivar Buckner, present Governor of Ken lucky, lost and won his fortune?' asks Louisville, Ky, correspondent of the New York Sun. It is one of the most remark able of real romances.
 General Buckners first wife was a Miss Kingsbury, a very beautiful and accom- plshed woman. She inherited large fort une, and at the time of her marriage was considered the wealthiest heiress ln the South. Her estate was valued at $500, 1000. Through investments and judicious man agement General Buckner largely increased this amount.
 At the opening of the war General Buck ner went with the South. Most of his wife's property was in Northern cities, principally in Chicago. When he joined the Confederacy he feared that all this would be confiscated by the Union Government After much thought it was decided to save the whole of 1t by deeding 1t to Mrs. Buck ner's brother, MT. Kingsbury, who strongly sympathized with the North. This was done, and General Buckner took command of division of the Southern army. Young Kingsbury had become gallant soldier with the Federals. One day as he was going into battle he said he had premonition of death. Remembering the trust the Buckners had imposed upon him, he told the story to a brother officer, and wrote an ac- count of the conveyance of the large estate upon slip of paper. He requested his companion in arms to put it away, and in case of accident to send it or deliver 1t to the Buckner family when opportunity pre- sented itself after the war. The young off, cer compiled with the request. The battle | came on and Kingsbury was among the | slain.
 The war ended and Kingsbury's friend went to Europe. The rush of incidents had 1 caused him to forget all about the paper. l He did not return to America for several years. Shortly after his return he was in Washington and met General Burnside, whom he had known during the war. He | inquired of the General concerning the Buckners of Kentucky. General Burnside 1 told him how General Buckner had made over his property to his brother-in-law, Kingsbury, who had been killed in battle. The property had then reverted to young Klngsbury's heirs, as no will or memoran- dunn of the transfer had been found.
 "But there is a memorandum" exclaimed the young officer, and have it, too''
 The next day after the dinner party he started out to find the document, of which he had not before thought since the death of young Kingsbury. After long search he found the paper, and tedious and costly lawsuit was ended, for it clearly established General Buckner's right to great proper I ty, the larger part of which consists o1 office buildings ln the heart of Chicago from which he receives rental of $75, 600 { | year

There Is No Doubt

That certain stores in each line of busi- ness of this city sell goods at lower prices than others. The perplexing question to many who are not already well posted is to know where to go to find goods marked at uniformly low prices, Some dealers in order to gain patronage offer baits, that is they mark line of goods at really low prices while the balance of their stock remains marked at high prices. Of course the general public will soon find out these tricks and consequently these stores are not the headquarters for the multitude. The large crowds they advertise in the paper never materialize, We do the largest business in the city We do business on the square,: No hum- bug. No misrepresentation. Every body says that our prices are the lowest. Give us call you will find us the cheapest and most reliable clothing house to deal with in the state of Con- necticut. ..

THE MALE SHOPPER,

A Nuisance of tho Genus Dude That
 Seems to Be on the Increase.
 'Is that mani"
 No, that's male shopper.''
 ''And what is a male shopper9''
 IA male shopper is primarily dude and secondarily great nuisance"
 ''Oh, see"
 This brief and breezy interview, says the New York Star, took place in the gentle mems furnishing department of one of the great dry-goods establishments which line Sixth avenue, between Fourteenth and Twenty third streets, the party of the first part being pleasant-faced, matronly woman in front of the counter, and the party of the second part an equally pleas ant, but thoroughly annoyed, clerk be. hind it.
 A youth with nut-brown derby hat size too small for his small head, a cape overcoat of pronounced check, patent leather shoes covered with light moccasins, ponderous walking-stick and a pretty lisp, which issued from beneath single ply mustache, had just left the counter, where he had forced the patient employe to haul down dozen boxes and overturn half his stock of scarts, suspenders and silken half-hose without making a sale.
 When the work of upheaval was complete the youth remarked pleasantly:
 "Thanks, awfully. I'll call again."
 And fitted away like the giddy thing that he was, to pose before the Hoffman and give the ladies treat to his beauty. As the clerk sought to reconstruct his goods he ventilated his sentiments by the use of several emphatic swear words. "Td rather wait on twenty women than one of those dude shoppers" he continued. ''They never buy any thing worth moro than fifty cents, and yet Pm forced by the rules of the house to bring out every thing | they ask to look at. I can tell one of them | as soon as he strikes me, but that doesn't do any good I can only grin and bear it." "Do many of them come Tn herei Yes, too many. have an average of about four | a day to wait on, and they seem to be in- l creasing. They ought to be kept at home in pinafores orr put to work by their parents. The chronic female shopper is bad enough, | but those fellows make me very tired. | There ought to be a law to suppress them"
