she cleaned the cabin, and mended Nathan's Sunday coat and vest, and various pairs of half-worn socks. Then she cooked supper, though it was an hour or so before sundown. Nathan, coming in for an old bucket of tar that stood in corner of the shed, was amazed. She took up her sunbonnet, and as if by a flash, he divined her meaning
 ''Yo' ain't got no call ter go." Once more she hesitated 1.-The child don't need me now,' she murmured She was starving for a word of himself.
 | Il dunno,' he answered, slowly, "ef he knowed-it'd be kind O lonesome fur the little feller"-he paused.
 For the first time Mandy put her hands before her face and wept.
 Things were not very different in the next three or four years. Nathan did not talk; he had fallen into a habit of silence, but he watched her; he was restless if, by any chance, she were away-a new thing; he even tried to save her from rough work or exposure to rough weather.
 She needed care, though she did not say so. A pain often came in her left side, her breath was short, she had a cough. She was, however, not unhap- py, for she began to suspect that Ma than was fond of her. Had he come to think her innocent or-had he for given her guilt? He gave no sign either way.
 One day she tried to lift heavy log and tainted. She was slowly regain l ing consciousness when Nathan found her, but her eyelids dld not quiver or her lips move as he carried her in and put her on the bed. He stopped down and gave her long kiss.
 Presently somebody was bathing her forehead and rubbing her cold hands. It stopped, for there was an unfamiliar call outside.
 T can't rightly say she's noticed anything, doctor" said her husband. ''Pears like she's too fur gone" The sentence broke abruptly as the speaker i turned away.
 The doctor found her weak and pale, but with dilated eyes o1 ecstacy. Her faded lips wore a smil. ing rapture, for she still felt her hus- bands kiss. It was Mandy's hour of triumph was dying.-Ella F. Mosby, in Springfield (Mass.) Re publican.

FAD FOR ENGLISH MAIDS.

The Flirtatious and PiIfering Pauline Be-
 ing Displaced by Slow-Going Susan.
 The stern fiat has been pronounced against the French maid. Paulines, Suzettes and Sophies by the score are, with their delft fingers, dainty ways, caressing voices and most pure of Partisan accents, vain1y searching for comfortable situations known of yore, says Demorest's Magazine, and wrath fully discover they have been replaced by middle-aged English women. No one can exactly put her finger on the cause of the revolution, but everyone hears rather black accounts of the Partisan paragons. The New York mistress is mild and long-suffering, but Pauline evidently went a step too far in her quarrels below stairs, her flirta- tions with the butler and the pilfering of petty trifes, and now her day is over. Her once devoted mistress vows she is glad and has at last found true treasure in Hollis, her English maid. Hollis is quite all one ever read about in English novels. She is a staid and stately person, no longer in her first youth, and though she cannot em- broider madam's ilmy mouchoirs and underlinen, tie the sweetest bow-knot in trice, chatter the gayest gossip in the most faultless accent and pay madam the neatest little compliments, she is a remarkably capable person. She has brought a recommendation from some titled English lady, who af- firms that Hollis is. a faultless traveller and does hair very well, also plain sew ing. The American mistress finds all that true. Hollis is not i'll day at sea, she is something of masseuse, and she is worth an army of men on journeys. She is a stern but perfect chaperon, she knows all about getting tickets, checking luggage, booking at hotels, tipping other servants and get ting her rights. There is class of English maids in New York who only attend ladies when travelling. Some of them have been all over the world, up the Nile, across Russia, and even to the Chinese wall; and once in the hands of one of these women one can travel in joy and peace. They are engaged to accompany young ladies as chaperons when trips are to be made, and rarely ask for employment in a settled posi- tion. Of course they receive high wages and all their expenses paid.

FLORENCE, Ala, Oct. 6-In 8 lonely house in South Fibre nee, Luke Lavend- CT blew the greater part of his head off last night with shotgun. Lavender was nearly 80 years old. He came here from St. Louis about five weeks ago and had been living in a deserted house in South Florence with boy who came with him. Several days ago he made his will and had evidently contemplat- ed the act for some time. Lavender claimed Broken Bow, Neb., as his home, and said that he was once very wealthy. He was in destitute circumstances here and had been sick for several weeks be- fore killing himself.

 A Phoenix paper purports in two separate editorial paragraphs to give voters information on the subject of registration. In the first It says: "The time for registering expires on October 15, 1892," and urges the voter to register pronto. It would strike the average reader who has kept tab on the flight of time that his day of grace expired about two years ago and that he could only vote this year by running risk of going to Yuma.
 In the other paragraph the voter is informed that "Novem Der Is will be the last day you can register" What

V0LK RELIEVES HIS MIND.

HOBOhEN, Aug. IA. 1894.
To the Editor Of The Jersey City NeaUs.-
Referring to the City Hall inquest edi-
torial in your last evenings issue, it is
very evident you were not fully posted
else same would never have been pub
lished. The selection of Hoboken, gentle
men as a jury, was perfectly correct, as
the particular victim of the disaster on
whom I was directed to hold the in
quest was in life a resident of Hoboken,
and at the time the jury was impan-
elled his body was in Hoboken, and it
was much more convenient to secure the
jury in that city and have them view
the remain than to go to Jersey City.
hunt up a jury, and bring them to Hobo
ken for that purpose.
AS to the question Of holding the in
quest in HOboken. it rests entirely with
the Coroner to not only select his jury,
but also the place in which the inquest
shall be held. and it is his privilege to
county for that purpose, should he SO
see. MT, but 1t has always been my aim
to look to the convenience of those con-
nected with the case rather than to my
own interests. As to the selection of a
Hoboken jury being an insult to the resi-
dents of Jersey City, L do not believe
that any fair-minded person would feel
feel that the jury, being composed of
parties having no prejudice in the matter,
that the investigation will be more i'm
partial than could otherwise be ex-
pected.
As the jury had already visited the
scene of the accident on Friday last,
using the horse cars going and return
ing, you can readily see the last clause
Of your article was as entirely ~uncalled
for as any portion of it.
I trust you will do me the justice of
publishing this letter. as I certainly am
entitled to the privilege of having my
side of the case shown to the public.

Coroner Hudson County, NJ.
