Leeds, wife of one of the richest men In In
diana, has secured evidence that nineteen diff
ferent saioon-keepers in Michigan City have
sold liquor to her husband this year after she
had. in accordance with law, formally notified
them not TO do so. The notices were served by
her in person. An interview with Mrs Leeds
is given, in which she attributed Mr.. Leeds
drinking habits to the influence of politicians
and saloon-men, who have fastened themselves
upon him. Mrs. Leeds says she proposes to have
the saloOn-keepers suffer from SO to 500 fine
for every drink sold to Mr. Leeds after notice was
served Her investigation showed incidentally
that out Of sixty-five places In Michigan City
where liquor is sold only ffty-one are licensed.
She intends 10 have the unlicensed fourteen
forced to close up. Mrs. Leeds adds: "Tm not
prohibitionist. Pm a temperance woman.
I've told them in one place in town that Mr..
Leeds can come in there and take his beer, but
he uust not take too much, and they must not
sell him too much" Mrs. Leeds is well sup
piled with money and looks like determined
Woman. The saloOn-keepers do not appear to

c@edings and supply the sinews of war. The

A Considerate Governor.

There is well-authentlcated old stors of governor at one of our penal settle ments, who, having fixed tho date when two of his convicts were to be hanged for stealing, remembered, a few days before the date named for the execution. that nC had an important social engagement for that same afternoon. He sent for the men and explained to them his diiii- culty.
 'It cannot matter much to you," said he, whether you arc hanged on Tues day or Wednesday next. It is, however matter of some moment to me, and you would greatly obiige mo if you would consent to be hanged on Tuesday instead of Wednesday, as named in the Gazette The men were inclined to stand on their rights, so he told them to think over the matter. They came to him the next morning and agreed to his wish on cer- tain terms, which he readily accepted The conditions were so much rum and so much tobacco for each day previous to their execution.
 few days thus rendered happy were better to them than one moro day of dreary existence on prison fare.-Gen. Wolseley in the Fortnightly Review

 ''Exncty. His Majesty will be back soon, now: that. in itself. proves the campaign is over"
 Your reasons for staying arc admirataa Colonel. I have nothing more to say
 The above conversation was taking place at Colonel Brandstein's military quarters, the day succeeding his interview with Min cite.
 The naughty Prusaan officer had been thoroughly fascinated by tho girls beauty and moro by the piquancy of her manner, and the scorn with which she treated his ad- vances. To will and to have had so long meant one and tho same thing for hins that her coldness and indifference reused in him an interest far deeper, il determination more fierce than any woman yet had been capable of inspiring. To this interest was now added jealousy. He was sure she loved this man this French prisoner whom the fortune oi war had delivered into his hands--so sure of it that he had been content to remain idle in the city while the fate of his country stlll hung undecided in the balance ct events. So sure of it, indeed, that his eyes flashed and his heart grew furious at the thought. He had t&ncied this girl would be an easy con- ouesr, ani now an array of difficulties faced hifs a!t the more tantallzing because of their stranwcnesS and unfamiliarity.
 ''She shall be mine yet" he said to himself, with storm and savage earnestness. And Leopold von. .Brandstein had never thus re- solved without accomplishing his purpose.
 g'o him it seemed but nero question of time. Sooner or later tho bough must bend in to it's own tendency, according to his own limits of patience.
 Sho had allured, augered, incensel him al in one but he resolved none the less to boar the sharpness of her scorn, tho good of her irony the spur of her coldness, for the saks of that allurement which was in itself so sweet and by difficulties grew more tempt ing. His eyes had read the hearts and na- lures of many women-they had never read one like this. To be pure in an atmosphere of vice. constant in the fire of temptation these were indeed virtues he had never ex- perienced, and which, though they won his reluctant admiration, never altered the de- tcrinination of his heart. And with thoughts like theso burning in his breast he went to tho presence of his rival
 .'So and that is the fellow-a handsome brutel Bohmer. bring that soldier, Pierre Leroux, to mo in the guardroom." The sol dier gave the salute and departed on his CTS rand, whiie the coonel-his inspection of the prisoners oyeg-sauntered away from the barrnck- yard, his face dark, his eyes wrath. iul.
 Ele long his commands were obeyed. Tho man he had desired to see stood before him calm, grave, patient. On his face no snr.

a stormy Passage.

SAN Francisco, April 2S.-The bark
d. @. Bryant arrived this afternoon from
Honolulu after long and tempestuous
voyage of twenty days. Captain Lee re
ports that, soon after leaving Honolulu
the storm arose. The gale increased iu
violence. One by one all the sails were
blown out of their bolthead ropes
and, for twenty. eight hours, the
bark was hove to under bare
poles. At times the wind would
rise into a perfect hurricane. Finally
oil was cast upon the waters, and the
waters were somewhat calmed. About
this time the storm moderated to a heavy
gale, which lasted three days. Consid
erable damage, besides the loss of sails
was done. A deckload of bananas was
washed overheard. Carpenter Jansen
was washed overheard, but was finally
rescued. Chief Mate Mcdonald had sew
eral ribs fractured, while one seaman
had rib broken. The cabin and for
ward house were filled with water.
