standard in poetry. In humorous and

In both lines the new south now prom

A romantic episode in the life of
a Puma pioneer has come to light
during the past week. One of
Puna's settlers who has branched
out in the coffee business, and who
during the few years that must
necessarily take place between the
planting and the reaping of the
rich coffee rewards, and which in
the rather quiet and dreary solitude
OF Puma residence do not glide
past at a Nancy Hanks gait, has
taken it into his head that life
would be eased, sweetened and
adorned by the taking of long
haired mate, looked around the
rather limited area of the Puma

a dusky maiden of the soil, TO
whose heart he at once commenced
to lay siege. His first act after his
mind was made up was to present
the fair maid with a diamond ring
and other articles of personal

800, on the understanding that she
would shortly become his fair
bride. The maiden coy when the
compact was ready for sealing had

PERSONALS.

On Friday evening of last week
Mr.. and Mrs. Whose gave dan

of their daughter, Miss Anna Rose.
The night was cool, and the dane

most morning, was greatly en-
joyed.
THE marriage of Mr.. E. D. Bald
win to Miss Nellie Curtis took
place this morning at the residence
of her sister, Mrs. l.. Turner. Rev
Mr.. Baker tied the marriage knot,
and the couple leave this morning
on the steamer. The wedding was
strictly private, only the immedi-

One of our lady teachers, wish
ing to obtain a few centipedes for
some friends in California, few
days ago made request to her
scholars to get some for her and
allowed the subject to drop from
her mind. The next morning at 6
o'clock she was awakened by a
knocking at her door, on opening
which she found two Of her scholars
with bottle with half a dozen
centipedes. Thanking them, she
prepared herself for the duties Of
the day, and was just sitting down
for breakfast when a trio appeared
with more centipedes. When she
got to the school she found several
bottles filed with centipedes, and
every short time during the day
an urchin would bob up with
''Please man, here's a centipede, :"
until at last time relieved her from
her duties and she madly mounted
her horse and fled to the country.

Stopping a Nuisance.

A little pantomime performance which
was seen on an express train rushing into
New York Sunday evening is worth re-
cording. A young woman had opened
her window, to her enjoyment, but to
the evident annoyance of young man
seated directly behind her. There was
much dust and cinders, and his light
clothes and fresh linen got the benefit of
all there was. He submitted to the
shower for a few seconds, then took
folded newspaper and held it in front o.
him and close to the side of the ear, SO
that all the cinders that came in were
blown directly against the neck of the
girl. She edged away farther and far,

Effect of Demonstration.

Domestfcation modihes and often
changes the instinct of wild animals to
prosecute or at least neglect the sick or
injured, perhaps because the lessened
strain of the struggle for existence
leaves room for sentiment to grow.
Both dogs and cats often aid their kind
when sick, and strange alliances spring
up between pets of different species.
Perhaps the best known instance is that
of the raven which Dickens saw at Hun
gerford, which used to carry bones to a
broken legged retriever. And the quick
ness with which dogs learn that their
master is i'll and show sympathy is well
established. -J,ondon Spectator, 4

SAULT SAINTE MARIE.
A Canal Of Large Cost and Inter-
national Importance.

1t Is of Equal Value with the welland
Canal as q Waterway, and. Is the SUBJ
ject Of Dispute Between the United
states and Canada.
The discussion with Canada about
waterways and particularly about the
Sault SaiHte Marie canal is of timely
interest. Indeed one of the first thoughts
suggested to the French explorers who
first saw the Sault was that it would
some day be of vast commercial impor-
lance. The statement has since been
repeated by every writer on the locality,
and the only wonder is that develop
ment was so long delayed.
There is confusion in the public
mind as to names in that vicinity. From
Lake Michigan to Lake Huron there is
an easy passage through the Straits of
Mackinac, and all in American territory;
but from Lake Superior to Lake Huron
is long and very tortuous passage, in
terrupted by rapids and forming the in
ternational boundary between Canada
and the upper peninsula of Michigan.
This passage bears the general name Of
st. Mary's river or strait, and is con-
sidered sixty-three miles long, measured
from the head Of Tequamenon bay, on
Lake Superior, to the head Of Drum
mond island in Lake Huron.
Now, as Lake Superior is $50 feel
above the sea and Lake Huron 575 feet

A BIG PURSE.
McAuliffe and Burge to Fight at Coney
Island for $4,000.

McAuliffe and Burge to Fight at Coney
Island for $40, 600.
NEW YORK, 21.-One of the largest
purses ever offered two pugilists since the
days of the celebrated fighter Figg was
hung up tonight for pugilists Jack Nc
Auliffe and Dick Burge by the Coney
! Island Athletic club. The sum offered is
purse of $40, ZOO. This last bid completely
overtops the $50, 900 purse offered by the
Crescent City club of New Orleans made
Wednesday morning and will undoubt-
eddy create a big sensation in sporting
circles. The purse was extended for
light weights for their acceptance tonight.
The only persons present were McAuliffe,
Eddie Stoddard, his trainer, Judge New
ton, representing the Coney Island Ath-
letic club, Phil Dwyer, and Captain Frank
Williams of the Crescent City Athletic
club. McAuliffe asked Newton if he pro-
posed to raise the ante OF $50, 600. eyes, -
replied the Judge, 81 do, and my bid is
S45, O0O.''
McAuliffe asked Captain Williams what
he had to say, in the way of raising the
amount, the latter said he would first
have to telegraph his club before he could
bid higher McAuliffe then said he would
sign articles of agreement to fight Burge
before the Coney Island club for the
S45, coo purse providing that stipulations
be made in the document that Dick
Roche. his hacker, would approve the
match
The articles of agreement were immedi-
ately drawn up and signed. The agree
ment stipulates that both men are to
fight at 1873 pounds for the championship
of the world. Captain Williams has not
yet received a reply, but as Burge has
already signed it looks as if the north
would be the scene OF battle.
