Story.

a marriage which was to have taken
place at Campden the other night, was
interrupted in an unexpected way. The
contracting parties, Henry Brown and
Miss Mary Morgan. stood before Rev. Mr..
Clayton. preparatory TO becoming man
and wife. a portion of the service had
been already read. about fifty witnesses
being present, when the BRIDE uttered =
loud scream. All eyes were Immediately
fixed upon her. She was seen to raise
her hand and point toward a corner Of
the church. The next moment she fell
on the floor in a swoOn and had to be
carried out. Physicians worked with
her for nearly an hour before che was
restored to Consciousness. When fully
recovered she gave a curious explanation
of her conduct. Her mother. who died
four months ago, was opposed to her
marriage with Brown. The marriage
was for q time delayed. but after Mrs
Morgan's death arrangements for it were
pushed. Mss Morgan says that Just
when she was about 70 pronounce the
binding words she raised her ewes and
saw her mothers ghost; then she tainted.
The wedding was postponed for several
days.-New York Journal

Some people seem to have a special
faculty for humping their heads, stub
bling their toes and falling over things.
With the Vernons this might fairly have
been called a family trait. The father,
the daughter and the two boys literally
went stumbling through the world, Mrs.
Vernon herself being the only one whose
feet did not appear to be all the time
standing in slippery places.
Once there was singular crisis Of
accident in the family, a veritable cpl
demic as it were.
Mr.. Vernon gave himself black eye on
the corner Of the basement door, coming
up from a visit to the furnace; Hattie, in
opening the stubborn sliding doors of the
library, was thrown against the wall in
their sudden liberation under her efforts
and hurt her forehead; John rushed
against his bedroom door III the darkness
on his way for his slippers, and was up
set with bruises, and Frank tripped over
the attic threshold and fell down the
attic stairs.
Mrs Vernon administered arnica and
sympathy for two days; then she quietly
made trip to the upholsterer's, and
one evening that same week, when her
family arrived from Office and school.
they found portieres instead of doors all
through the house.
"They are very pretty, mamma" said
her husband, but why such sudden
innovation?'
I've long wanted them myself" an
swered Mrs. Vernon, 'hut felt at last
that they had become necessity. Dear,
literal old Mrs. Hotchhins was in to see
me the day after you all got hurt, and
was giving her an account OF your woes,
and she said: Wen, now, l must say,
Mis- Vernon, that with family like
yours, doors are dretful dangerous things
to have in the house,
And So" laughed her husband, ''the
portieres are put in to protect us from
the dangerous doors!'-Youth's Com

''Yonder is the young lady, - exclaimed
one of the men, pointing with his cutlass.
Pauline was standing in the middle of
the little street apparently bewiIdered.
Her head was bare and her long bright
hair was floating on the wind. She was
an apparition to make man forget battle
and danger and death. Cortes ran to her
and laid his hand on her arm.
"Mademoiselle," he said, very firmly,
but with infinite tenderness, "come with
me-"
Then he turned to his men and bidding
them follow, he started toward the block
house.
Suddenly he thought of the dona. De-
lay was full of danger at the moment,
but he halted again and sent man to
bring the old woman, who still stood
weeping where he had left her.
AS the little company resumed its
march toward the block house, a great
increase of the din was observable up at
the fort and at the same time a body of
men came charging down the street that
ran from the hill to the beach of the bay.
This was small detachment of French
soldiers, headed by a tall young officer,
who swung his sword around his head
and encouraged his followers by the most
vivacious example and spirit.
Cortes saw that it was too late to reach
the block house. He quickly put the
women in the rear and formed his men.
Pauline's eyes had seen an& recognized
the young French leader.
sob, Louis! Louis!'' Cortes heard he1
cry out. Here l am. Come! Gomez
Did the French eficer also really hear
her? 1t appeared SO, for with a loud
shout he leaped forward and hurled him
self with his men down upon the now
closely marshaled Spaniard5. In an in
slant had begun a close and deadly
struggle, hand to hand combat with
sword and musket butt.
