Emily's mother was not quick enough
to catch me, for fell back in dead faint.
Within an hour had revived, and weak
as thought had been had found strength
to rise, dress myself and go to the old
store, where, two steps at jump, l climb
ed the five flights of stairs that led to the
janitor's apartments.
There / saw the woman and regained
possession Of the package with feelings Of
infinite relief
She had not opened itl-Joseph Simp-

SHE WOULD BE A POET.

II can never paint a picture"
So she said,
And she cut in twain the canvas
She had spread,
Put her paints and brushes by,
Had one little harmless cry,
Still she said, Resolved am I
Art to we'd"
$50 I'll write wondrous poem
To the moon
When it shines in solemn splendor
At nights noon.
Though l paint not, can write.
Now my poem I'll indite,"
And she rhymed the nvelong night,
"Moon-rune-spoon."
But she ne'er became poet
Her young head
Had sufficient sense to know it,
So she said,
"Since I've missed the muse of song,
And to art may not belong.
Would it then be very wrong
Jim to wedH"
Now she makes her home q picture
Cunning artl
Lives q tender poem daily,
Fame apart.
Better these than written rune.
Rhymed harmoniously with spoon,
Poems Of loves honeymoon
OF the heart.

One pursued the other, and he who gave

SOLID SILVER BATHTU6.

Freddy Gcbhard's Unique Antenuptial
Gift to the Lady Who Is Now His Wife.
A New York correspondent says that
the last antenuptial present made by
Fred Gebhard to the lady who is now
Mrs. Gebhard was sent to Baltimore two
days before the wedding. This present
is a solid silver bathtub The corre-
spondent continues: "It is not one Of
those common everyday German silver
affairs such as Albany legislators are
won't to lave in. The white metal in
this gorgeous antenuptial gift is without
alloy. The vessel is as commodious as
the workmanship displayed on It IS IN
tricate and ingenious. Tall and beauLl.
fully proportioned as the lady is, she will
be able to disport herself in this lovers
gift without fear of stubbing her pink
toes at one end of it or abrasing her scalp
by sudden contact with the other.
"This little piece of boudoir furniture
is beautifully embossed. The exterior
resembles u perfectly laid out flower
garden in miniature, while the interior
ia delicately chased. On the bottom or
the tub are engrossed Mrs. GeDhards
initials in huge letters IL WelSns SVV
pounds avoirdupois weight. The market
price for silver at present is 50 cents an
ounce. In this double decked and triple
riyeted vessel suggestive of female syba-
ritism there are 5000 ounces. At SO cents
an ounce this amounts to 81, s,O56 for the
metal alone. ~
"Silver workers in New York who
were allowed to feast their eyes on the
beautiful vessel bofore it was swathed
in tinted cotton and soft tissue paper,
preparatory to being sent to Baltimore,
say that it could not possibly be made
for less than $500. This brings the
cost of the gift up to 90, 1856. The interi-
or of the bathtub is fitted up with recep-
tacles for soap, brushes, sponges, ETC.,
and near the head of isis q dainty silver
box attached to the side, in which is Q
silver manicure set. There is also COM
Portable headrest, with an open space for
q rubber air pillow should the fair user
desire to take dolce far niente bath.
Altogether this little piece of water brio
a-brac is decidedly Gebhardesqua"

The sphere Of woman has been so great
ly enlarged for tho past few years that
ono hears from the fair sex in all the
phases and departments of life. The
West End road now employs corps of
women detectives. who are supposed to
keep tabs upon conductors who may
show an inclination to knock down fares.
That great corporation finds that women
make better detectives than the men be-
cause their eagle eyo is not costly detect
ed. The women cast very slight look
at the clock register when fare is rung
in, and nothing is thought of it, but a
man who is seen looking at the register
is pointed ont by everybody as West
End detective. The women detectives,
like the men detectives, as soon as dis
covered, are Of no further use to the
West End.-Boston Post.

miles east Of Elsinore, is a six-foot lead
of free milling ore and sulpburet, with
the contact vein between slate aud

westerly and southeAsterly direction.
There are number of locations on it,

are showing up we'll. Returns from
assays made OF this ore gave SO to $1,000.
This ledge has been known for many
years, but "a the cap rock only asssyed
So in gold, no one had the nerve to
open it up. There is not . doubt but
that the parties now working there
have made q very rich strike. This

big strike, about six miles south Of
Winchester. BY following the contact
