His PIaintiye plea.

He had loved her very tenderly and
for a long time, but she had scorned
him. He was no worm either, for he
would have turned when trod upon, but
she rocked not this 1t was enough for
ler that she did not care for him. This
is usually enough for any woman; also
for any man when the boot is on the
other foot. for of such is the kingdom
of Cupid.
His condition had at last become un
oearable to him, and he resolved to win
all or lose all. 1t was late one evening
when the fateful moment came.
"Will you marry me?' he asked her
in pain, untrimmed English, for he could
trust himself to nothing in the ornG
mental line.
She spurned him scornfully.

A Life Saving Horse.

The following circumstance occurred
at the Cape of Good Hope: In one of the
violent storms that often occur there a
vessel was forced on the rocks and beaten
to pieces. The greater part Of the crew
perished miserably, as no boat could VEN
ture to their assistance. Meanwhile a
planter came from his farm to see the
wreck, and knowing the spirit of his
horse and his excellence as a swimmer
he determined to make desperate effort
for their deliverance and pushed into
the laundering breakers. At first both
disappeared, but were soon seen on the
surface. Nearing the wreck, he caused
two of the poor seamen to cling to his
boots, and so brought them safe to the
shore. Seven times did he repeat this
perilous feat and saved IA lives; but
alasl the eighth time, the horse being
much fatigued and meeting with for
midable wave, the gallant fellow lost his
balance and was overwhelmed in a mo-
ment. He was seen no more, but the
noble horse reached the land in safety

eral Lander of Washington, one of
the most original aud attractive
women of the capital.
Formerly Mrs. Lander was an ac-

once when playing Camille" in Cal

Booth in the role Of Armand. Booth
had not reached the age of 21 at the
time, and Mrs. Lander was some.

to have so young a leading man y
Her annoyance, however disap.
peared the first evening they played
in public.
Booth had proved keen and bright,
anxious to learn and to please the
star actress. At rehearsal he said:
Miss Davenport how shall !
kneel in the death scenep
BE sure to kneel before me, so
that 1 can look down upon you, was
the reply.
The story of the performance
should be told in Mrs, Lander's own
words.
THE evening came. The opera
house was packed My boy, to the
establishment of all, played with the
very soul of genius. He fairly trem-
bled with emotion. He forgot all
my careful directions and acted his
part with the self forgetfulneSs and
abandon of an old actor whose intui-
tive knowledge is sufficient to him,

admiration l felt for my tover-r,y
boy lover. The death scene came,
and Armand was missing. l looked
behind me, and there, instead Of
kneeling at my feet with his head

anguish on the back of my low
couch. There was no time to move,
to speak or change a word or a posi-
ton l simply turned 50 l could

was pitiful. Never had l seen grief
