A young woman has to love young man
very much to be wholly satisfied with the
amateur photographs that he makes of her.
"A life of ease is difficult pursuit" says
Cowper. Perhaps he meant that it is hard
thing to catch.
There are 100000 clocks in this coun-
try, and fifteen or twenty of them may be
right.
If tight sleeves do come in fashion again
some of the cloth mills will have to lie idle
for a while.
Ninety per cent thought and ten per cent
speech is a good safe rule for any one to
follow.
At Jonkoping, Sweden there is a monster
machine, which makes l.OOoOo0 boxes of
matches per day; but that doesn't help the
man in the woods who wants to start a fire
and hasn't one.
Few people are absolutely free from super
stition. Like love- everybody gets at least
little of 1t in a lifetime.
The man who has put all his money into
flying machines is disappointed when his
riches do not take to themselves wings and
fly away.
If there were no opposition to wearing
boomers on the bicycle, maybe the dear
creatures wouldn't care to wear 'em.

Deserted His Bride,

dispatch to the Glohe-Democrat says
Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick ]. Burke took the s
o'clock train on the Consolidated road last
evening for Winsted, Conn. While it was
going forty miles an hour Burke leaped
from the car. The train was stopped, and
at the foot of an embaukment was found
the place where Burke landed, but no
Burke. The train proceeded, and a posse,
headed by Mrs. Burke, started back. Up to
midnight the man had not been found.
The boys living in Burrville say they
saw a man without any hat running down
the tracks in the direction of Torrington
Last January Burke was to wed Miss An
ma Nunan of Winsted, in St. Joseph S
Church on the day set, st. Joseph's was
filed with friends of the couple. Miss MI
nan was there, but no Burke. He had fed
the town the night before. Miss Nunan
attached his property and began a suit for
breach of promise. Weeks afterward Burke
returned and they We're married. Since
that time Burke has been trying to run
away again. Mrs. Burke has been deserted
at the altar on three different occasions.

out on the map that I could take bride
path from there through the woods that
would bring ME to the four corners In time
to meet Imogen at half-past eight. And
so it would. if it hadn't been for that con-
founded river being down, you know. I'd
never thought of that. OF course, l was
bound to get across, If / could. sooner than

Il d have had a good six miles to 30 after
getting ACROSS. and l hadn't been in that
hole long " hen you two got hare
This statement aroused my curiosity
afresh.
What do you call not long?" 1 in
quired. "A couple of hourS?"
'Oh bless me- it was nothing like that. l
suppose 1t seemed longer to me than it
really was; but 1t couldn't have been over
fifteen or twenty minutes at the outside
We'll, Imogen,' said l, you certainly
are smart, even for a Yankee girl. Almost
any of them, l suppose, could have seen the
unexpected ard extraordinary peril in
which her lover lay in the heart of track
less forest a dozen miles away: that is a
very ordinary accomplishment. But 1t
must be. think, comparatively exceptional
to be able to see all the details of an event
a good two hours before they have taken
place, and to get there blndfold in the nick
of time to prevent the victim from getting
bored. Are you in the habit of doing 3ucn
things. my dear. and would you mind tell
Ing now IL is done

had anything like it before. l hope l never
shall again. And he has promised me
Eever to cross river again except on A
bridge. Would you mind letting him ride
home on your horse? He's so tired I'm sure
1t will hurt him TO walk
There was in this request something so
convincing OF the reality of human love
between the sexes, that l am sure l should
have acceded to it without a murmur had
Tom permitted me to do But he loudly
and scornfuliy declared that he was as
fresh as daisy. and a walk was just what
he needed to prevent catching cold: be-
sides, nothing would induce him, he was
kind enough to say, to permit IAN old man"
Ike me to go afoot while he was in the
saddle So it was arranged that l should
ride in advance and give warning to
Imogeps father of the approach of the
young people, while he walked beside Imo-

her best to persuade him to ride the in

convinced that he declined the offer. AS

to him.
l rode to Imogen's house. and told the
whole story to the Old gentleman. He
erunted. rubbed his nose. and gazed ont at
me under his thick gray eyebrows.

turesquely portrayed, I could not help
thinking that a revolver would have been
quite as useful an ingredient in the COM
ing melee as the rope would be. We might
have made shift with Llama for a rope, but
there is nothing that can take the place
of a good seven-shooter, such as was at
that moment lying laoded in my bureau
drawer at home. lmogen may have sup
posed that all men at all times carried re-
volvers, as a matter of course, just as they
wear necktie or suspenders.
my dear" said l. when we begin to get
near the place you must let me know, and
l will go in advance and that all is
clear. If there should be any trouble, you
know. you could be of no use, and might
be very much in the way"
Scarcely had l offered this altruistic sug-
gestion-which indicated. l think, quite as
valiant soul as.ever Tom could lay claim
/ to, though of course, never got any credit
for it-than lmogen uttered cry and was
off like a deer along the path in front of me.
| 1 spurred after her with an unpleasant sem
sation of anxiety, mixed with invincible
curiosity. The path we had been following
debouched into another, which was evident
ly in common use Its was cleared OF Vegeta-
ton and the footing was red clay, in which
noticed the footprints, not only OF Imogen's
| mare, but of another horse, as We'll At the
same moment the roaring of river became
distinctly audible, and l remembered that
the heavy rains of the preceding days had
swollen all the neighboring streams. and
doubtless this one was down. as they call
IL, dlSO
Down galloped Imogen to the margin of
the turbid current, with me at her heels. At
the brink she pulled up and looked this way
and that in manifest perpleXity. For the
| first time since we set out on pilgrim
age she was at fault.
I'VE can't cross that" I observed. "He
can't have crossed it, either We have come
out of our way. There must be bridge
somewhere. This is ordinarily ford you

But this is the place itself!' cried she.
This is where the fight was. This is just
the spot where they set upon him and drag
ged him off his horse. But the river! how
did that get here?'
The river looked to me as if 1t had been
there a long time. but forebore to make the
remark aloud. Moreover, began to put two
and two together: l jumped off my horse,
gathered up the rope and set off along the
| bank down stream.

Lord Randolph Churchflfs Eldest
to Be CampOs' Guest.

If the fates give no son to the Duke of
Marlborough, who was married last week.

lot of miscellaneous titles and appurte-
nances will descend to a very manly and
bright young fellow who stepped off the
Cunard steamship Etruria the other day.
and looked around as If expecting to see
Indians climbing stockades to grapple with
settlers intrenched behind them. 1t is his
first visit to this country.
The young man was Mr.. w. Spencer
Churchill, eldest son of the brilliant Lord
Randolph Churchill. The latter was the
brother of the last Duke of Marlborough,
and SO Mr.. Churchill and the present duke
are cousins. Blenheim and its title in one
il stance descended through the female line,
but those who are posted on the ways and
manners of landed estates and titles in
Ell gland say that this can never happen
again. So if Marlborough has no son Mr..
Churchill will be some time duke.
The young man is a lieutenant in the
Fourth HusSars, a crack regiment, Of
which every officer is a man distinguished
either by wealth or blood. His mother is
all American, nee Jerome and as his father
was one of those rare persons, an English
man with a sense of humor, Mr. Churchill
has plenty of fun in his composition. 1t
hardly seems possible that nature has deS-
tined a man with humor in his composition
to sit in the house of lords
Mr. Churchill, with his chum, Mr. R. W.
K. Barnes also a lieutenant in the Fourth
Eussars, got two months leave of alb
scnce from the war office to go down to
Cuba and see some of the fighting. They
have letters TO Gen. Martinez Campos
They will be his guests for a month, and

turn to the right and go down a steep
a great silk cotton fallen right across the
path, but it is all rotten, and our horses
will kick 1t into powder-there Is the arch!'
She broke off and pointed with her whip.
Sure enough, there was the arch, and the
ants nest too. After this turned meekly
to the right and followed my guide down
the slope and kicked my way through the
rotten trunk Of the silk cotton without
feeling the least surprise. A dozen years
must have elapsed since the last human
being had passed this way.
