HEARD good story the other day on one of PhGnix' young men who has been paying close attention to one of our fairest young ladies. In the family are two little tots aged about seven and five years, and of course they are great friends to the young man. The young gentleman in question called a little earlier than usual few evenings ago and the mother being out the little folks were still up. Finally the elder sister suggested that it was time for them to go upstairs, and calling them to come along said she would go with them.
 'But who will stay with Mir. B." said one of the juveniles.
 70, guess he will not object to re- maining here for a few minutes," was the answer.
 "Is Jennie in the kitchen?" again queried the little one, referring to the colored domestic employed in the family.
 "Yes, think so, why?"
 "Well why can't she come in and stay with Mir. B. till you come down?"
 The question was not answered and am informed the young man is debating as to whether he ought to ever call again or not. CARLOS.

Now THAT melon-time is approaching and the vendors of that delicious pro duct will be soon looking in vain for the shade of the lost cottonwoods, would it not be well for the City Fathers to con- slider the proposition of establishing a city market? All that is necessary is a roOmy shed, centrally located, under which farmers and dealers could drive their wagons, and where buyers would naturally gravitate for their supplies of fruit, vegetables, poultry, butter, eggs and other farm products.

It has been freely stated in the press throughout the country that "Shenan- doah" is to be produced at the Princess Theater, London. This is incorrect; it will be produced at the Drury Lane. Another little bit of exclusive and i'm portant news is that the play has been translated into French and will be pro-
 duced at the Porte St. Martin in Paris.

An Adventure of Two Soldiers inside
the Besieged City OF Vicksburg.
The author of the "History of the
Third Regiment Louisiana Infantry"
narrates an adventure which befell two
of his fellow-soldiers while the regiment
was inside the besieged city of Vicks-
burg, shortly before it's surrender. One
of them had discovered field of cab
bages not far from the camp, and as the
army was on painfully short rations the
two men determined tomake raid upon
it that evening, in spite of the fact that
tho owner was known to be on guard
armed with a shotgun.
A loose picket was found at ono point
in the fence, and the Major wedged him
self through the opening, while the
sergeant remained outside to keep
watch. The Major disappeared in the

THREE ROSES.

Together on q slender spray they hung
lowered with equal beauty, passing fair,
And blent. as though an unseen censor swung,
Their mingled perfume W ith the NOR ming air
Not theirs the fate to linger till decay
Strewod their sweet.scented petals on the
ground;
Vor ere the close OF that bright summer day
Each sister rose another fate had found.
Twined in the meshes of beautys hair
One blossom faded slowly, hour by hour
Until at parting some one in despair
AS memcnto craved the withered flower
One went an Offering TO n vain ooquette
Who piucl,cd its leaves, and as they flutter-
ing fen,
Whispered u test that has believers yet,
He loves me-loVes me not-he loves me we'll.
maidcn's form lies in darkened room,
In folded hands, upon pulseless breast,
One touch Of color in the deepening gloom,
The last OF the three roses is at rest.
ENVOY
O Love and cruel Death, SO far apart.
Rose sisters fair, could 1 but change with
thee
And choose the fate of either of the three
o happiest rose Of all, my choice would be
Thy place above the maiden's pulseless heart.

DRAMATIC MEETING.
Two Brothers Meet Under Peculiar Cir
circumstances After Many Years.

|
Geo. I. Luttrell is prominent com.
rade of the G. A. R., and lives in ALE.
| gheny, Pa. Although born in Raleigh,
s. c., Mr.. Luttrell followed the fortunes
| of the North during the war, and lost his
| right arm on the field of Antietam. He
| now resides with his son-in-law, Z. l..
Evans, the well-known grecer, and being
in comfortable circumstances, is enabled
to spend his later days peacefully.
Recently he strolled into the post-of.
fee, which happened to be full of peo-
pie, and proceeded to write note with
his remaining arm at one of the desks.
While thus engaged he noticed behind
him tall, swarthy man, whose long,
| black moustache and slouched hat had
something of Southern air. This per-
son seemed very anxious to succeed Mr..
Luttrell at the desk, all the other places
being taken up
When the old soldier had carefully
blotted, enveloped and directed his let
ter he turned away. Then the man with
the big hat squared up at the desk
Scarcely had he done so than he turned
sharply round and gave the departing
veteran mighty thump between the
shoulders.
Il reckon your names Luttrell?" he
exclaimed.
Mr. Luttrell looked at the excitable
speaker for moment, and then, with a
reminiscence of his boyhood's home, an
swered, 81 reckon it ISL
SOS NINE" said the stranger, land,
blank blank it, thought was the only
one of the name left in America"
He then took card from his pocket
and presented it to his new acquaint-
ance. The card read: "Alan c. Luttrell,
Birmingham, Ala" Now it was Mr..
George Luttrelrs turn to cry out. ALAN
Luttrell." he cried. That was the
name of my father and brother. / am
George T. Luttrell-"
My God!' the Southerner exclaimed.
''Were you born in South Carolina?'
OF course, the old soldier was born
there, and, of course, this was his broth
er, whom he had not met since the war
broke up their happy home in Raleigh,
and set them on different sides of the
great fight.
1t was like the wind-up of melo-
drama to see the two old fellows shake
hands and call each other brother once
again. They kept up the hand-shaking
so long that spectators got interested,
and then, in stentorian tones the South
ern brother told the story of tho twenty
eight years parting and the strange re-
union. Il never saw him since before
the war, sir" he said, until this blank
ed bit of blotting paper"-here no held
up the paper on which the vetssan had
blotted his letter-"told me that his
name was Luttrell. And from that we
found out the rest. I'll keep that paper
till die. Tribune.

darkness, and the sergeant was all eyes

darkness, and the sergeant was all eyes
and ears.
From the breastworks came the sound
of the sharpshooters' rihe-shots, with
the occasional roar of piece of artil-
lery. Mortar shells, with blazing fuses,
described graceful curves through the
air in their flight into the besieged CITY,
Tho air was calm, the sky cloudless, and
the sergeant fell into reverie.
Phiz! Zip What was that? Only a
stray minnie-ball that passed so near his
head as TO cut off the hair. A rude
awakening, but he was on guard and did
not change his position.
Tho minutes seemed ages. What
could the other man be doing all this
time? Surely he did not mean to carry
off the whole garden. The sergeant
grew impatient. He'd be hanged if
The shrill scream of an approaching
she'll cut short this new train of thoughC.
He knew from the peculiar sound that
he must be nearly in range, and he
looked in vain for shelter. The ground
was smooth and level, not the least hol-
low to protect the smallest object.
Action must be instantaneous, and he
threw himself alongside the bottom
board of the fence. With scream as of
eXultation the shell cut off the tips of
the pickets above him, and descended
into the garden in the precise direction
which the Major had taken.
The sergeant sprang to his feet and
whistled. No answer. Again and again
he uttered the signal. Still no response.
He ran along the fpnce for few yards,
and was about to climb over when the
Major appeared, fairly loaded down with
cabbages, and covered with dirt from
head to foot
As soldiers say, he had had a close
call. He was pulling cabbage when he
heard the shell approaching and at once
pitched forward to avoid it. The she'll
went into the ground about foot from
his head, and nearly buried him alive.
The two men hurried back to camp as
quickly as possible, and carried their
greens" with them.

DELICIOUS BREAD.
How the STAFF of Life Is Made by the
Bakers of Southern Spain.

How the Staff of Life Is Made by the
Bakers of Southern Spain.
The bread in the south of Spain is de-
lieious; it is as white as snow, close as
cake, and yet very light; the flour is
the most admirable. for the wheat is
good and pure, and the bread well
kneaded. The way they make this
bread is as follows: From large, long
panniers filled with wheat they take
out a handful at a time; sorting it
most carefully and expeditiously,
and throwing every defective grain
into another basket. This done, the
wheat is ground between two circu-
lar stones, as it was ground in Egypt
two thousand years ago, the requisite
rotary motion being given by a blind
folded mule, which passes around and
around with untiring patience, a bell
being attached to his neck which, as
long as he is in movement tinkles on,
and when it stops he is urged to his duty
by the shout of ''ar mula" from some
one within hearing. When ground, the
wheat is sifted through three sieves,
the last one of these being so fine that
only the pure flour can pass through it;
this is of pale apricot color. The bread
is made in the evening. 1t is mixed
with sufficient water, with little salt
in it, to make into dough- very
small quantity of leaven or yeast
in one batch of household bread
as in Spain, would last week for
the six or eight donkey loads Of
bread they send every day from their
oven. The dough made, it is put into
sacks and carried on the donkey's back
to the oven in the centre of the village,
to bake it Immediately after kneading.
On arriving there the dough is divided
into portions weighing three pounds
each. Two long, narrow wooden tables
on trestles are then placed down the
room, and a curious sight may be seen.
About twenty men, bakers, come in
and range themselves on one side of the
table. A lump of dough is handed to
the nearest, which he begins kneading
and knocking about with all his might
for about three or four minutes, and
then passes it on to his next neighbor,
who does the same, and so on success
lively until all have kneaded it, when it
becomes as soft as new putty and ready
for the oven. OF course, as soon as the
first baker has handed the first lump
over to his neighbor, another lump is
handed him, and so on until the whole
quantity of dough is kneaded by them
all. The bakers wives and daughters
shape the loaves for the oven, and some
of them are very small. They are baked
immediately.-C

Unoomfortabie People.

We all know them; they are in every
community, in every church, in many
families. They are always uncomfort-
able themselves, and they infiict dis
comfort on every body else. A really
aggressive and well-developed specimen
will overshadow a locality like ban
yan-tree, yielding the whole year
through all manner of fruit bitter to
the taste, and not to be digested with
out serious injury. These people supply
an ample stock of friction; they bring
out the latent possibilities of general
unpleasantness in large or small
circle; they SOW seeds of discord, not
only in the fallow ground, but by the
wayside, and are followed by abundant
harvests of the kind that are sown with
joy but reaped with tears.-N. Z. Led

Timely Attractions of women.

The great art-not +uty-which wo-
men have to learn ia, says living
writer, how to make the best use, in its
own time, of the various kinds of attrac-
tion, the various sorts of charm prao-
ticable by them-each beautiful in its
way, but only perfect when in harmony
with age and condition. For instance,
the simplicity of child is Stiffness in a
full-grown girl; the unsuspecting frank
ness of girl is loose-lippedness and un-
dignifed want of reticence in woman;
the instructive coquetry and desire to
become folly and heartlessness and a
fixed habit of Inconsistency and, as time
goes on, ghoulish craving in matron;
and so on through the whole list.-N. Y.

Joseph Ady's Scheme of Swindling Within
the Bounds of the Law.

1t is now some forty or fifty years
since Joseph Ady, the clever swindler.
victimiZed the people of London. He
was decent-looking elderly man,
Quaker, with all the external tokens OF
respectability. His peculiar line of
work" was this: He examined as far as
the means were afforded him lists of un-
claimed dividends, estates and beQuests
waiting for the proper owners, and un-
claimed property generally. Noting the
names, he sent letters to individuals
bearing the same apellatives stating
that on their remitting him guinea as
fee they would be informed of ''some-
thing to their advantage" When any
one complied he duly sent second let
ter acquainting him that in such list
was sum or an estate due to a person
of his name, and on which he might
have claims worthy of being investi-
gated. 1t was undeniable that the in
formation might prove to the advantage
OF Ady's correspondent. Between this
might be" and the unconditional prom
fse of something to the advantage of
the correspondent lay the debatabla
ground on which it might be argued
that Ady was practicing dishonest
business. 1t was too narrow a margin
for legal purposes, and though he was
often arrested he escaped punishment
and continued to fleece the unwary. He
was before Sir Richard Birnie at the
Bow street police court on the 10th of
May, 1880, and an amusing interview
took place between the Judge and the
swindler. The latter stoutly maintained
the legality OF his business and referred
to Mr.. Doherty, Solicitor General of
Ireland, as one of his patrons. Adv

The HopkinsvilIe Kentuckian
claims to have 1900 population more
than GAINESVILLE. Well, such a
thing may be possible, but the trou-
bic about il is, they are in the asy-
lum; moreover when it is considered
that Hopkinsville takes in large
farming territory and counts cabbage
heads in the population, ii is an easy
thing to get up a couple of thousand
more tnnn GAINESVILLE. In fact it is
strange that the enterprising census
taker for that village did not out
strip Louisville. Again it is $ id
that Hopkinsville put up black
boards, requesting every body who
had not been interviewed by tn
euumerator to write their names on
the blackboard and that the accono
dating drummerS and show men
passing that way filled the boards
with new names every day for Il
month. We don'G vouch for this, as
it is hearsay, but the cabbage head
and ass luin part of it, is strictly cor
rect.
