remarkable in that fact, but this particu.
lar wagon is a new sort for Portland

The Peculiaritv of the aR."

A little feature to be seen in some writings perhaps only to be dis tinguished as separate gesture by the aid of a magnifying glass-is the tiny stroke which is separately placed above the small r, in order to show that it is an r, and to thus distinguish it from another letter, or part of letter, which resembles the when the latter is made without this little top stroke. At the first glance, how insignificant does this detail appear! But is it really without meaning as human action? I think not. tr
 A man who habitually takes the trouble to make clearer the meaning of one of his symbols, at the cost of a a little separate action, is a man who takes pains with his work and who de- sires to do his work well. This action, trivial as it appears, could scarcely be done by a slovenly or careless person; it is gesture of minute care and at tention-qualities that in one way or another have been of vast service to individuals and to mankind. Thomas Carlyle, for example, showed his minute carefulness by an attention to punctuation that I have never seen ex- celled, and which has rarely been equaled.-Nineteenth Century.

NEW HAVEN, June 25.-When Geo. B. Mills, wealthy retired merchant of this city, and his family arrive from a tour through the western states, they will be treated to surprise. They will learn for the first time that Lena, their youngest daughter, eloped in their absence with Ralph, son of J. B. Kirby, the wealthy Chapel street jeweler.
 The two young people, he being 21 and she IS, went to Derby, Conn.,, in tending to proceed thence to New York, where they both have friends and relatives. They expected to get along somehow, although they had no bag gage and little money.
 Two days later Ralph repented, wrote letter to his father asking his forgiveness and requesting that his trunk be sent to him in New York, but his requests were not granted. Not having been warmly received in New York and being short of funds, they returned to New Haven. Lena found

 Yesterday was an exceptional day for Phoenix as the air, usually placid to monotony, was whirling in dust clouds with velocity registered at the weather bureau at twenty-four miles an hour. It all signiied rain and the air was the cooler for it. The o'clock reading of the thermometer was sev- enteen degrees less than that of the day before and during the afternoon a few drops of rain fell. About a drop to the square foot" the weather observer announced. At Maricopa. however, there was a heavy rain and Tempe and Mesa were favored with showers. Rain has never been known in Phoenix in the latter part of June, but the indications are that the warm weather of the past week had the ef- feet of bringing the attention of Jupj. ter Pluvius to this drought-strickeD region.

 MT and Mrs. Kirby finally relented and sent a carriage for them, but they refused to leave, their pride having been aroused. The Kirbys are now buying furniture and household uten- sils for them and providing them with money.
 The objection on the part of the par ents of both was based on the fact that young Kirby only earns $9 a week as a clerk.
