The color in her cheeks was like that

The sun was waning when they
drove into West Cary.
Burt had stopped and bought cara.
nels and bananas. and the half-emptied
oags reposed IN companionable way
between them.
Malvina had taken her hat off, for il
was warm, andl her fower-hke face
shone forth in all its sweetness
Therefore, when Wade Loring came
driving down the street in his new
buggy, and met Bart and the new
teacher face 20 face, he almost dropped
his lines.
He stared; his jaw dropped; he
grew red and redder. BewildermeEt
was depicted on his face -disappoint

And Burt-he could not help it-as
he drove on, laughed
The new teacher went home at the
end of the first successful week of her
labors in the West Cary \school, but
she did not go by train Saturday morn
ing She went in Burt Olds's phe-
ton, Friday night, after school. and he
drove back for her Sunday afternoon.
1t was by no means the only time
she made trip home in the same way ;
nor did Burt .'hitch up" only on Fri
days and Sundays.
It became q matter of common
knowledge that Burt Olds took the
new teacher driving quite often on
moonlight nights, and that they played
checkers in Mr.. Pease's parlor when
they did not go driving, and did other
significant things.
Malvina often wrote 10 her mother ;

Amusing Experience of the Tammany
Leader With a Cabb-.
From, the Net0 York Herald.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-Richard Croker
and party of his friends had a queer ex.
perience with Washington omnibus driver
last night.
For the inaugural ball Mr.. Croker had
engaged the Arlington hotel bus With
Mrs. Croker, the Misses Croker, John f.
Carroll and several other ladies and gentle
men he was driven TO the pension building
about $50 O'clock. He noticed nothing
peculiar in the driver. They saw all they
wished Of the brilliant scene in an hour or
so, and determined to leave and be early to
bed after the fatigues Of the day.
The footman at the entrance was told the
number Of the driver, an he emitted a
series of yells progressive IA their intensity.
There was no response. Mr.. Croker went
IN search of his bus and found it among a
halt thousand vehicles that lined ad jacent
streets for blocks away.
CROKER PILOTS The BUS.
He found the bus, but saw no driver. He
mounted the bus. From that hight he
looked down and saw in heap between the
footboard and the seat bunch OF darkness
which turned out to be the driver. He had
apparently impreRnated his system with
something more potent than water. No
shaking could get more than q grunt or
two from him. Mr.. Croker drove the
omnibus up to the entrance of the pension
building, plotting his way skillfully through
the crush of carriages. There council was
held. The TammsnY leader said he would
take the rens At this stage the driver
came little to himself, insisted that be
was perfectly sober and quite able to do his
work. The horses we're gentle and Mr..
Croker told him TO go ahead.
The omnibus rolled along over the smooth
asphalt pavements for ten minutes with
regular motion and its passengers were re-
assured. For the next half hour there was
lively talk about the incidents of the ball.
Suddenly Mr.. Carroll looked out of the bus
windows.
"Why, We are out in the coun ryp he
exclaimed. The bus was stopped. The
men got out and rsconnoitertd. They were
not quite In the country, but IN a road
lined with villas far from the blazing lights
in the capitol dome. 1t was an awkward
thing to be in an unknown region Of sub
urban Washington near midnight, with {
tipsy cab driver who insisted he knew hi
business, and If they would only trust hin
would land them at the Arlington hotel al
right. Finally a man came along. Carol
inquired the way to the Arlington hotel
He saw the name on the bus and b.
laughed in CAROLS face.
He's been having good time," said tn
driver apologetically, and he jerked hi
thumb in Carroll's direction.

walked on. The driver turned bis bus arounC
and proceeded slowly toward the center o
the town. Houses began to multiply. Pres
emily, Misunderstanding buildings came il
sight, and at 1890 the bus drew up in from
of the Arlington.
Mr.. Croker didn't report 'cabby," ant

THE FRENCH VINTAGE.
The Wine Crop Of Last Year Valued st
More Than 81 ,5oo,OOO,OOo.
From the London DAILY Netos.

The Wine Crop Of Last Year Valued at
More Than 81, 5oo,OOO,OoO.
From the London DGiEu Aelos.
The official returns of tho French vintage
last year do not offer much encouragement
to wine growers, for il the quantity Of wine
made 1854, 348, 900 gallons was rather larger
than in 1889 and 1890, there was a decrease
of nearly % ,000,0 0U gallons upon the
vintage Of 1891. The causes assigned for
this decrease in the official returns were the
severe frosts of April and the prolonged
drought in the summer months, though the
effects Of these two evils we're felt much
more in the Bordeaux and western depart
ments than in the extreme south, where
there was considerable increase in the
yield. Altogether there was an increase in
twenty-eighu and decrease IN forty-elght
of the departments which grow wine, and
the total value Of the crop estimated at 1885,
480, 900, representing an average value OF
rather more than l shilling gallon. This
is slightly less than the estimated value OF
the wine crop in 1891, and the difference is
due to the fact that the yield fell OFT the
most in those departments where Bordeaux,
Burgundy and champagne are chiefly made
Upon the other hand, the official estimate
is that what wine was made In these
celebrated districts was OF ramarka-
bly, fine quality, and thoss who like
to think they are drinking the
pure juice of the grape will be glad
to learn that the quantity of "wine" made
in France from dried currants and raisius
was little more than fourth of what it was
two years ago, this decrease being, no
doubt, mainly due to the high duty which
the French chambers placed upon these fruits
when imported from:abroad. The mischief
done by the phylloxera in the French vine-
yards cannot, however, be well overrated.
For in the year 1875, which preceded its
appearance, they produced nearly 2,OOO,-
900 600 gallons Of wine, or three times more
than they did last year, and although that
was, it is true, a very exceptional vintage,
the general average was at least so per cent.
higher than it is now. The first inevitable
result of this has been a complete revolu~
tion in the imports and exports of wine,
for. while previous TO the appearance OF the
pbylloxora, France exported about oO,OOO,-
600 and i'm ported only 100000 gallons, her
imports for the first eleven months OF last
wear amounted to 204 100000 gallons, and
her EXPORTS for the same period fell short
20 900 900 gallons. In Algeria, too, owing
IN the unfavorable state OF the weather,
the vintage amounted to only "a, OOO,0OO
Gallons. as against more than 9O,OOO,OU0
Gallons in 1891, and the only subject upon
Shich the official report dwells with salts
fection is the cider crop, which amounted
TO $40. OOO, 600 gallons, being about 90; UoO =
( 00O Gallons in excess of last year aud halr
tbot In aroess of the average OF the last ten
years.

LIZZIE BORDEN ARRAIGNED.
She Pleads Not Guilty" to Three
Charges of Murder Read.

New Bedford, Mass, May S.-Lizzie
Borden, who has been an inmate of
Taunton Jail ever since August last
under Indictment for the murder Of
her father and step-mother, was ar
raigned this afternoon in the superior
court in this city.
She carried no outward sign of suf-
fering. When the trouble and excite
ment which marked her entrance into
the court had subsidized, the district at
torney moved that Miss Borden be ar
raigned and the clerk Of the court read
slowly and solemnly three indictments
of two counts each. Two of them
charged her with the murder of her
father and mother separately and the
third charged her with the murder Of
both. At the end of each Indictment
she replied clearly, calmly and steadily,
Il am not guilty"
The court then adjourned and Miss
Borden was taken back to Taunton
where she will be imprisoned until her
trial.
