Della Ward places on her sighted love in
her suit against the vessel owner Capt.
Nelson H. Whipple, her claim being that
he did not keep his promise to marry her.
Capt. Whipple said: II never promised to
marry the girl and this suit is a scheme
to get money out of me. Her folks live
near Capac, and two years ago she was
cook on my barge, the Ogarita Last sum-
mer she kept house for a Detroit man.
She is bright girl and l tried to help
her and make something of her, but found
1 could not and gave up. 1t amuses me to
think she wants $4,000 when am not
worth over $1,000 i never promised to
marry her, though did tell her would
do,all could for her il she would cut loose
from some of her associates" Miss Ward

An old man who sleeps by the road
side yOnder, and upon whose tomb are
the familiar lines beginning, "Remem-
Der me as you pass by" spent the
greater portion of the last ten years of
his life by his wife's grave. He came
in the early morning, and after remOy-
ing any microscopic weed that might
have showed itself since the previous
evening, would light his pipe and sol
emily contemplate the stones in his
vicinity He went away regularly to
his meals, and as regularly took his
afternoon nap on the grass by the
graveside.
Shortly before his last visit to the
cherished spot he requested me to de-
cipher for him the dates upon several
of the gravestOnes, and we cOnversed
about many whom we had known in
life and who had passed away. re-
marked that the churchyard was a very
pretty place, and his face lighted up
as he rejoined: "Ah, mister, I always
thought I should like to be buried here,
for, looking around, "yOu see there's
such a splendid view from here. This
was uttered in good faith, and the old
man seemed convinced that neither
coffin lid nor churchyard clOds would
obstruct his view. Perhaps they don't.
In few brief weeks he came to his
favOiite haunts to stay. Poor old
William, the flowers upon your grave
have run wild long ago, and no one
seems to remember you as they pass by.

4 Horses Memory.

Say, friend, you are on my horse, -"
said one gentleman to another as he
reined his horse before the door.
"YOur horse! Oh, no; why, 1 bought
this horse two years ago"
"You did 2" answered the other
well, / lost my hOrse-it was stolen
just two years ago"
The conversation took place under
the far-spreading oaks of an Old-time
plantation home. A planter was sur
prised to see his horse return home
after two years, and ridden by a gentle
man who evidently had bought the
horse in good faith. After some con-
versatiOn the old owner of the horse,
with much earnestness, said: well,
sir, if you will dismOunt, unsaddIe the
horse, and he don't go to the fence,
take the bars down, walk to the well,
and if he don't find water in the bucket
let it down the well, and then walk off
to his old stable, I will give up, and
that horse isn't mine!" cat your word !;
the horse is yours if he does all that, }"
cried the visitor, and, leaping from the
horse, unsaddled it. What was his
astOnishment when the horse went
straight to the fence, let down the bars,
crossed over, went to the WELL and,
finding no water, let the bucket down,
and then, as though he had left home
but yesterday, walked to the old sta
BILE. The animal remembered the
trick, and the owner recovered his
horse. There are those living now who
can attest to the truth of this story,
though it happened years ago, st.
