CUPIDS CAPERS AGAIN.

A funny story comes from Tun-
Melton, illustrating a woman's love
and the meanness OF practical
joker. The facts as related to us.
are about as follows: Ayoung man
IN Tunnolton has a girl in Keyser
that he has been counting for some
time, and rumor says is engaged to
marry. The young lady is very
much devoted TO him, as this story
will show. 1t seems her sweet
heart had not been down to see her
for some time and some rascally
wag wrote her letter telling her
that he was very low with the fever
and il she wanted to see him alive,
she must come at once.
Not doubling the truth of the
message and only anxious to reach
his bed side, ere he set sail for the
golden shore, she took the first
train for Tunnelton, arriving there
on the midnight express. As there
was no one at the depot to meet
her, she went to the night operator
as she was acquainted with him,
and he gallautly accompanied her
to the residence Of her sick lover.
When they knocked on the door,
the old man being aroused from
sweet slumber, gruflly demanded to
know "What the HI was wanted p"
But finely got up and the young
man who was supposed to be in a
dying condition, being aroused
also, thought it was some coon
hunters after him and both came
down to the door together, without
the formality OF putting on their
clothes, as it was dark and very
warm and they never dreamed OF
receiving call from any Of the
fair sex at that time of night.
When the young man opened the
door, his sweetheart, who was very
much excited and wrought up by
this time, made rush for linn and
threw her arms around his neck,
and it is hard to tell who was the
most embarrassed and astouls he'd
the young lady at finding her lover,
so alive and hearty, or he at such a
midnight apparition.
The matter of his negligee toilet,
was also very embarrassing for both.
We draw the curtain on the tears
and explanations that followed and
| if this act in the drama don't bring
the match to focus, there is nc
such thing as true love on the mas
culine side. The fellow who hodxed
the girl, deserves a licking for thus
trifling with tender heart. 1t is
the old, old story Of how the course
Of true love never does run smooth,
but let us hope that this story will
end as all good love stories do witt
the happy marriage of the hero and
! heroine,

the pole, and half way between the first and second slats. Fasten the vines to this slat, and as the vine keeps climbing upward, you must keep put ting on slats, and fastening the vines to them. In this way you will soon have the woodwork completely covered with a dense growth of green vines and leaves, and such an abundance of fruit that will astonish you. I used the yellow plum-shaped tomato, but any vigorous sort with large top may be used. The yellow fruit on my vines, growing in clusters, was very orna- mental, and admired by all who saw them. Although not as valuable for general purposes as some of the larger red varieties, they make really fine pickles, and are very acceptable in the winter-timc, with the thermometer at ten below zero, and snow to the top of the front tfence.-Frank Finch, in Farm and Preside.

Reoipe for French Nourat.

French nougat is one of the most de- licious of confections, and this is the way to make it: Be sure the nuts are fresh, and prepare generous supply. You must have Brazil nuts, peanuts, hickory nuts and almonds, and also some walnut meats. Chop them all, but not fine enough to make them oily. Stew them as thick as possible on 6 shallow tin pan that has been well greased with sweet butter; mix in with the meats some candied orange and lemon peel and half dozen finely chopped stoned dates. Boil your sirup, made of two pounds of sugar and cup of water, until a drop hardens in cold water. Add tablespoonful of strained lemon juice and then pour over the nuts; mark into squares while soft and let 1t cool before taking from the pan.

AN EASTERN STORM.
Great Destruction Caused by a storm o

Great Destruction Caused by a storm on
 the Atlantic Coast-Many Lives Lost.
 NEW YORK, April 12. A Esevere storm prevailed yesterday along the At lantic coast. At Sandy Hook the wind was blowing from the east early in tn, day at the rate of sixty-nine miles an hour and snow and sleet are driving furiously.
 Warsaw, x. r., reports snow to the depth of twenty four to thirty inches on the level, greatly impeding railway traffic. At other interior towns the snowfall which still continues has been very heavy.
 The life saving crew at Long Branch reported early in the morning that yes. sel was ashore near the Squan life sav' ing station and that she was in danger of going to pieces. Shortly after an. other vessel was reported ashore of Highland beach. A binding snow storm prevailed at the time and rem dered it difficult to obtain the facts. The Squan vessel was the coaler Albert ". Smith from Philadelphia and her CIC" Ol "CiC ulO"hCNL iO second vessel also lost her entire crew of twelve men and both vessels have become complete wrecks. The crews of the Sandy Hook, Squan and Long Branch life saving stations put out to the assistance of the disabled vessels, but the furious sea and the blinding snow prevented any effective work.
 At Greenport, L. l., the fiercest storm experienced in years ragged yesterday. The wind blew at the velocity of forty miles an hour and it was showing and raining alternately. Great damage was done to shipping.
 At Long Branch, N. J., the most SC. were northeast gale, with heavy rain and snow, in fourteen years, prevailed along the coast, causing much damage to the bulkheads and shipping

BROUGHT TO TERMS.

Southern Pacific Officials Compelled to
 Carry Keeley's Army Out of Utah.
 OGDEN, Utah, April 12. In the tele- graphic correspondence kept up for the past two days between the Southern Pacific officials in San Francisco and in this city, it was plain that the railroad company was only sparring for more time. The long argument of the parties before Judge Miner consumed most of yesterday forenoon. The final decision of the court was that the order was so modified as to justify the territory officials to use force in putting the army out of the terri tory, provided it had not moved out by 10 o'clock to-day. The decision was a complete vindication of the position taken by the territorial officials, and Marshal Brigham and his deputies were instructed to enforce the order of the court The Southern Pacific of ficials now say they will bow to the decision of the court.

Hints to the Wise Ones.

A blue-eyed person never looks so blue-eyed as in blue dress or white with blue cravat, whereas the strong blue of the fabric might have been ex- pected to dim the slight blue of the eye. A woman with remarkably red lips clad in dull heliotrope, with amethysts, has all the coral taken from her mouth, which wears instead a light heliotrope tint, and with this pink the pink of her cheek is also touched. An ordinary or even sallow cheek never looks so beautifully white ns over a white dress which seemed to threaten to darken it. And beautiful as the "esthetic' colors were in their day, they quenched and dimmed their wearers to their own tone. This is not to be easily explained by any known chromatic rules. Nor can one say why turquoise blue darkens dark eyes and adds to their brightness. Ex- pertinent and verifcation should be as much valued by the women as by the Comtist philosopher.

Serious Fighting Occurs.

BERLIN, April 11.-Dispatches re- ceived from Rio de Janeiro state some serious fighting is taking place at Rio Grande do Sul, and that an important naval battle may shortly be expected. Five of the insurgent warships are bom- barding Rio Grande do Sul, and the forts there are replying with but little eff feet The Brazilian government has dispatched a fleet of ten war ships to the south, with instructions to engage the rebel feet at the earliest opportu- nifty. Porto Allegro is also said to be seriously threatened by the insurgent forces landed by Adm. De Mello

Fidelity in Little Things.

There is no real elevation of mind in a contempt of little things. It is, on the contrary, from too narrow and con tracted views that we often consider of little moment things which are really of immense and most extensive consequence. The more we are by na- ture prone to neglect little things, tho more we should fear the effects of this neglect, and be watchful over our selves, and place around us, if possible, some insurmountable barrier to our remissness. Do not let us be discour- aged by this constant necessity for watchfulness as to trifles. To main- tain the conflict will at first require firmness; but it is . discipline that we have need of, and one that will at last bring self-control, and with it peace and security for our souls.

INDIAN LANDS.
The Sale of Certain Indian Lands to Be Ratified Equities will Be Investigated.

 Ratified Equities VIII Be Investigated
 WASHINGTON, April 1L-At the meet- ing of the subcommittee on Indian af. fairs in charge of treaties it was de- cided yesterday to ratify the sale of the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache land, and a subcommittee consisting of Cur tis, of Kansas, and Maddox, of Georgia, was appointed to investigate the claims of the Chickasaws and Choctaws for an equity in the lands This investiga- tion will reopen one of the most sensa- tional cases which the Indian country has ever furnished. If the claims of the Chickasaws and Choctaws hold good, the price of the land to the gov ernment will be increased from so cents to S2. 05 an acre. The equities claimed by the Chickasaws and Choctaws are the same as those in the Cheyenne and Arapahoe reservations, which were al- lowed by congress, vetoed by President Harrison and subsequently passed over the presidents veto
 It was charged at that time, and sub sequent developments have tended to strengthen the belief in the minds of some, that this claim was the result of an attempt to mulct the government aud was a gigantic steal, as any ad- ditional claim will have to be paid by the settlers who take the land. An ef- fort will be made to prevent allow ance of the Choctaw equity claim and the subcommittee will sift the case to the bottom. The equity claim is one half larger than the price which it is proposed to pay for the lands, the Choctaws and Chickasaws claiming sl. 25 an acre.
 In 1855 the Choctaws and Chickasaws gave the government a ninety-nine year lease on the land for s700, 900, and, in 1866, for $500, 900 additional, ceded all right and interest in it to the gov ernment. According to the condition of those who will fight to prevent an additional obligation being placed on the settlers according to the attorneys for the Choctaws, their equity in the lands was never surrendered. The government placed other Indians on the lands, and not until an attempt was made to open it up to settlement was the claim of the Indians to an equity known.

GROWING TOMATOES.
Training the Vines So That They Are
 Things of Beauty.


 Things of Beauty.
 Thinking that your readers might be Interested in the manner in which grew a tomato vine eight feet in height, have had an illustration made which, with the description give, will make it very easy to under stand. First, procure two poles three or four inches in diameter at the large end, and ten feet in length. Place them on the ground side by side, so they will be about twenty inches apart at the large end and ten inches apart at the small end. Next, make some slats one inch thick by two or three inches in width. Nail one across at the top, another thirty inches from the large ends, and three more be- tween, so as to be an equal distance apart Then set firmly in the ground, and with a hoe or spade make a basin-shaped hole at the base of this ladder large enough to hold pail of water. Set the plant in the center, and after it has got well rooted and stocky, say fifteen inches in height, it should be tied to the first slat and the hole filled with water several times each day. When it has grown pretty we'll up to the second slat you must push the vine toward the side on which the first slat was nailed. Then nail on a slat on the other side of

CONeY Recruits.

OGDEN, Utah, April l1-Gov Waite, of Colorado, wired Gen. Kelly yester- day at Ogden that his industrial army could stop and pass through Colorado But Gov West, of Utah, notified Kelly that his men would be forced to return west if they refused to go of their own motion. Kelly submitted the matter to his men, who refused, with but one dissenting vote. Kelly's men said they knew what it would be to tramp through the mountains and suffer hardship if they could not ride. They cheered Gov. Waite and Gen. Kelly, who ap- pears naturally conservative and is a good speaker.
 Encouraging words were received from Gen. Kelly's wife; 1000 loaves of bread, 1000 pounds of beef, potatoes, etc, were contributed by the Ogden Cha ity society and every body waited to see what Gov. West would do

HAPPY HOUSEHOLDS.
They Are Those in Which the Anniversa- ries Are Remembered.


 The happiest households are those that do not let die out the sentiment connected with various anniversaries. Although gift-giving or recognition of such events in a suitable way may be out of the question, owing to the straitened circumstances of those within the gates, there can yet be a little air of festivity when mothers or fathers birthday comes around, or some wedding anniversary is to be celebrated. An extra dish, little bunch of flowers, or some special music prepared for the occasion will show the kindly spirit snd the loving remem- brance that count far more than the moneyed value of any gift.
 As the children grow up if these tes- tivals are encouraged they will have much to look forward to, and much more to remember in the years to come, when they go out to do battle with the world and find that sentiment ia crushed under foot and affection is re- garded only as a side issue.
 Lifo is full of beauty if we only know how to gather it into our bins and storehouses. There need not be great wealth nor worldly honor, but loyal clinging together of parents and chill dren, marked by happenings that have direct bearing on each one's individ- ual history, will join the circle closer together and make home life the ideal thing that it ought to be.
 Do not, we beseech you, plead that you are too busy or too seriously occu- pied with worldly affairs to waste time on such trivial matters as birthday parties and wedding celebrations. Such use of time is not a waste, and will prove among the sweetest memo ries of childhood and old age long after the little chain has been broken, and one member after another gone to that long rest from which there is no awakening.
