LONDON, Feb 24-The young Countess
Russell is now recovered. and the happy
pair have proceeded on their honeymoon.
There is romantic story connected with
their marriage, which runs thus: Earl Rus
sell is partner in the electrical works at
Teddington, near the house in which Lady
Scott lives, and is an enthusiastic worker in
the business. Lady Scott ordered some
electrical flttings, and Lord Russell took
gang of men over to the house and set to
work, dressed in ordinary mechanic fash
ion, as foreman Of the gang. When lunch
time came the men were set down to refresh
the nselves In the servants hall, ami his
lordship sat down quie ly with the rest.
However, Lady Scott, as tho young heiress
of the house was callel, had noticed the
superior bearing and manners of the sup
posed young foreman, and in willful way
begged her mother to ask him to lunche IN
in the parlor. At first the old lady was in
dignant at the idea of bringing a mere paid
foreman into position of temporary equal

NOTED to the upper chamber, where he
made himself so much at home that be won

mantle mood, suffered the handsome young
mechanic TO whisper soft nothingS in her
ear. ClandestIne meetings followed, with
The usual result; the young couple met,

was aware Of her daughters rash folly
When a rumor Of the state of things
reached the maternal ear her ladyship hur-
rled off to the electrical works on vengeance

for the audaclous young foreman.

"The Earl Russell, my lady, and right

Tne old lady was thunderstruck, and the
next time tie earl met his loved ne be was
gently reproacned with his stratagem. The
earl excused himself on the old plea that he
wantei to be loved for himself alone, with
out the glamour of rank and riches. To-
gether they faced the mother, who received
them graciously, protesting that she had
seen his native nobility through the coarse
disguise of fustian jacket. Then came
formal betrothai, the the wedding, after

had told her what to do and what to say
IN a hurried, agitated way; and af Ter wards,
when they were alone, he had taken her in
his arms and demanded of her promise
that she would never tell to any man or
woman until he gavs her leave where
married or whether she was married at ALL
"Not that anyone is Ink .ly TO ask YOU" he
concluded, with an old little laugh. And
Jess had promiSed-promised SO solemnly

At any rate she had promised to keep the
secret, and she did not mean to break her
word. There was fine $ rain of honor in
poor, uneducated jess. Come what might,
SIC would do what she had promised. She
could not have given good reason for her
discrimination to keep her word; one could
easily have beaten her in argument; aud
yet she WIS so faithful, so loyal, s true
thus child of the people, from the slums of
Whitechapel-that she was resolved TO

before she could break the promise that
she had given to the man she loved.

hardening ominously. "rye had other
ways of getting to know what l wanted.

There was a little silence. Jess, sitting
helplessly in the rough deal chair that Alice
had pushed toward her, covered her face
with her hands

tone, ~ dJn'J want to be hard on you.

"Never," said Jess, with sudden fervor.

From, the PHILADELPHIA Inquirer.

A few years ago very warm friend and
admirer CT the ex-speaker called on Mrs.
Randall and informed her that he had de-
termined to make provision for Mr.. RAN
dali for the benefit of his family to the
extent OF $4,000. He did this, he said d,
after having learned that he was compare
lively poor man. He had been in public
life for nearly thirty years. and was then as
poor as when he began. He. therefore, had
made up his mind to set aside the above sum
os indicated He requested Mrs. Randall to
breach the subject TO her husband In her
own way, and Hoped that he would get a
favorable reply.
Some days after he saw Mrs. Randall.
She informed him that Mr.. Randall would
not listen to any such proposition at all, and
requested her 70 say that under no circum-
stances would he accept. This has been Mr..
Randall's invariable attitude concerning all
benefactions for MS benefit. The gentleman
was very much surprised at the reply, as he
hoped that he might be permitted to do this
deserved kindness. The gen tleman ha
snre died aud left an estate worth several
millions. He remained up 10 the time OF
his death devoted friend OF tho distin-

He allowed jess to precede him down the
stairs, but when they reached tine street. he
kept close to her, as if he
were afraid that she would give him the
slip. In this way the two walked dowa
Mill street to Baldwin's court. An arch
wav, over which part of two houses were
built, formed the distinguishing feature of
this court, and it was at a door imme-
diately under the archway that Stephen
paused and knocked. In a moment or two
the door was opsne1 by a crooked, white
faced lad, in whom jess recognized her old
enemy Dick Eyre. He grIlnei and grim
aced at sight Of her; but became solemn
again when his brother said few words in
his ear-words which jess could not catch.
They seemed to result, however, in Dicks
closing the door, locking, boiling and chain
ing it, as if it were not to be unfastened
again that night. jess suddenly topped
