CONFIDENCES.

Low to the stars she whisperes a name
Low to the listening stars;
Red as Arcturus her bushes flame,
Pale Virgo smiles on her maidenly shame
Guard well the secret, y stars
Soft to the flowers she murmurS word
Soft to the moon tranced flowers.
The redding lilies are lightly stirred,
But the rose dreams on of her poet bird
Oh, guard well the secret, dear flowers
Faint to the night-wind she breathes a sigh
Faint to the wandering wind
That mutely kisses her for reply,
Stealing the unshed tear from her eye
All, breathe not the secret, sweet wind!
A whispered name-a word-and a sigh
Floating away thro' space,
With a wind-gathered tear from pure maid
eye,
Seeking -seeking-below and on high
Shall they ever find resting place?

ABDUCTED friends Of Mr.. and
Mrs. AL. Reaney were grieved to learn
of the mysterious disappearance of their
adopted twin colored children, Cora and
Coralee. Although these waits had on
ly lived with them a short time, having
been given into their keeping on Christ
mas eve, yet they were such quiet, IN
assuming children that they appealed to
Ais paternal heart and he learned to
love them with a fathers love. But,
alas! in an evil hour, his happiness flor
Al. was happy in the possession of some
thing in the children line, especially
these curly haired darlings) }, was turned
to grief. He took them to the New
Years ball and left them by themselves
while he attended to other duties When
he returned he was astonished to find
the twins had gone. A search was at
once commenced which lasted all night
and nearly all the following day. While
the peculiar circumstances surrounding
their disappearance were being discussed.
it was remembered that the ''dude coon,'
who was at the ball, was seen to pay
marked attention to the children, and,
soon after, disappeared from the room.
This lead to suspicious and these sus-
picions lead the searching party to the
room occupied by the coon. To Ais
Joy, the children were found, quietly oc-
cupying the coon's bed. The meeting
between Al. and his niger dolls can
be better imagined than described, and
we draw the curtain on this most affect
ing scene.
