Marguerite Maginnis had long had

there were times in their sweet assOcia-

her way, but Spud was emotionally
unreliable and vacllating, and the day
at last came when he felt that tile fair
Marguerite wasn't in il little bit.
Mr.. d Auberville was panied by this
condition OF affairs, for he was q
chiyalrous man, but he did not knew
how to change the course of events,
aud he could not think OF wrecling his
future happiness by marrying woman
he did not love. even though she was
poor and was willing to put up with
almost anything that could make a
living for her.
And Mr.. d'Aubervile was enjoying a
salary of SO week at ribbon counter

But let us not dwell upon the sad
scene
Those who knew Spud at the ribbon

heard the story, said they would never.

Suffice to say that he did.

of equal strength could have. Its factor
of safety is very heavy, and its peculiar

settlements in the new country, with

That coon of Ringers, which has
been sauntering around the lamp post

past three months, made things lively
Sunday afternoon at b. A. Fox's bird
store, on Broad street.

The coon was accordingly turned over

part of the animal.
Climbing over partition in a show

the pets was left to tell the tale. His
coOnship then dined upon handsome

deprive beautiful tropical song bird

his appetite was satisfied there wasn't
a single representative of the piscatorial
tribe left in the aquarium. Several
other depredations were committed,
and his coonship was making prepare
tions to exterminate every valuable
bird in the establishment, when two
festive coppers crawled over the
transom and put an end to his calcutta
lions. He was carried back to Rueger's,
but soon effected his escape, and made
it lively for the squirrel in the Capitol

Mr.. Rueger dove up to Fox's establish

London Spectator.
My friend, James Shamrock, three
years ago caught 4 young lark, and it
has been pouring out its songs ever
since then from its cage, and very
sweet note it is. Some little while
ago, as the afternoon was a sunny. the
cage was hung outside in the garden
at the moment another lark was CARROLL
ing in the air, and Shanock's bird rose
from the cage. which was only covered
with fine net, and i'll which there
must have been a rent and disappeared
in the direction of the other lark. My
friend seeing this at once began to
whistle, holding up the cage to attract
his pet back again, and in very short
time down it came to his feet and waited
patiently while he gently replaced him
in his cage. There were three wit
nesses, believe, in this case.
The funniest thing, too, is that about
the same time James Shanock's cat
brought him in little bird quite deli
cately, and waited for him to take il
from his mouth quite uninjured. He
is great bird lover. and it looks as ii

MOORE VS.. MABER.
The Two Crack Welterweights
Reported in Fine Fettle for
Their go"
Opinion Is Slightly in Favor of
Maber, but Moore's Friends
Are Staunch.

Thursday evenings programme at the
regular monthly entertainment of the
Phoenix Athletic club will eclipse every
thing in the history of the club. 1t will
be a twenty-round scientific glove con-
test between Dick Moore, of this city,
and Billy Maber. of Australia, for the
welterweigbt championship of the
Northwest. The stake is the largest
ever offered by the club. Poorer talent
could have been signed for much less
money. but the club and patrons are
demanding the best in the market.
Moore has defeated every antagonist
that has faced INN in the Phoenix arena,
and he has accomplished the feat so
easily that Manager Barnes has secured
one of the best welterweight boxers of
the world to face the ST. Paul favorite.
The betting seems to stand shade in
favor of the shifty and lengthy Kanga-
roo. He is reputed wonder, but
Moore's friends are not in the least
appalled, at the big talk that is made by
the Maber partiSans, and they stand
ready to back their Judgment. Moore
never was in the trim that he is in for
this contest. He has trained so hard
and consistently that if he does not win
it will be because the long Australian
is too much for him.
Maber. too, is in the pink, SO to speak.
He fully realised that he is to cope with
one Of the very best i'll the class, and
he has fitted himself with more care
| than he did for the two recent battles
he had with lesser lights.
This contest is attracting more atten-
| ton than any meeting since the attempt
| that was stopped by the national guards
to get on a go between Hall and Fitz-
simmons. The lovers of manly sport
from all parts of the Northwest will be
here.
One feature of the evening will be
| the presence of Jack Dempsey. He
will give an exhibition Of three rounds
with Manager Barnes, aud he has con-
sented to act as referee for the Moore
| Maber contest. Dannie Needham, the
whilom st. Paul champion, will also be
| present, aud he will spar some clever
local light. Altogether, IL will be red
