explains that the young men expect to
get toomuc for their money. He adj
mitted that the society has not been
paying in full for the past eighteen
months, but said that the past month
had been more successful than any of
the previous ones. lie explained that
there had been an overdose Of marriages
during the past year, and that as it had
been dull year in business. the society
must necessarily feel it. He said that
the young men who had married had
reaped the benefit, and those who did
not must expect to pay for it. He says
that he knows nothing about the officials
of the concern, or the reasons for the
Withdrawals of previous secretaries.

IN AN AIRY COSTUME.
A SomnambuIistic Opera Singer
Parades Fifth Avenue In Her
Night Dress.

New YORK, March IA female
somnambulist took trip up Fifth av-
enue this morning. Although she had
walked mile through the streets she
attracted no ones attention until she
reached Twenty-third street. She had
on, apparently, only a white night
gown, over which was thrown gray
wrapper, which was open in front, dis
closing the night robe. Her hat was
set somewhat awry. In her right hand
she carried little Tiding-Whip, with
which she switched her clothes from
time to time. A policeman saw that
there was nothing on the woman's feet
but pair of loose slippers. Her face
had strange expression. The eyes
were open, staring and vacant, and the
features were strained. The policeman
looked at the woman in Wonderment as
she passed him and walked toward the
ladies' entrance of the Fifth Avenue
hotel. She hesitated there a moment,
and CROPPED with Der hands until she
found the knob on the storm door. Then
slowly and weakly she swung the door
open. 1t flashed upon the policeman
that the woman was walking in her
sleep. He followed her inside the cor
She gave start, her eyes winked, and
her face assumed a more life-like
expression. She tainted, of course,

mind to give a false name. 1t was

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher, in Consumers
Journal.
A lady of wealth, and with the rich
surroundings and costly works of art
that wealth brings, was one evening
alone, with only one servant in the
house. Being in her chamber, as she
laid aside articles of jeWelry and placed
them in their appropriate places in her
bureau, she CHANGED to raise her eyes to
a mirror opposite, and from light in
the other corner of the room she caught
III the mirror the reflection of the figure
of a man curled up under large center
table, but hidden from all sight save
what was gained by this reflection in
the mirror.
Forcing herself to be calm she finished
what she was doing at the bureau, then
quietly stepping to the bell rang for the
one servant In the house. When the
girl appeared she quietly SAID: "Mary, L
wish you would run over to Mr.. - "a
jeWeler in the neighborhOOd) and say l
wish he would send back the diamonds
he has been reSetting. They are the
most valuable have, and L am uneasy
to have them so long out of the house.

even if not finished. Wait, Pll write
note. for fear of any mistake" So.
seating herself with the greatest ap-
parent cOmposure at the table where
the man lay conceled, she wrote the
note.
Of course she wrote, not for dia-
monds, but for help! The girl took
the note. and alone. absolutely, with
this great terror concealed close by her.

might be aroused she busted herself

girl returned. and with her the friend
