Girls, here's a novelty for leap year;
The ladies of the W. @. T. u, of Ports
mouts, Virginia, will shortly organize an
unique society, to be known as the ''Naples
Matrimonial Society" They think similar
societies will be formed by the w. G. T. U.
throughout the country, and that they will
eventually take the place of the various
matrimonial bureaus in certain cities. In
Naples girls fourteen years and over as
sembled once every year in one of the
churches, and the unmarried men who so
desire go there ald choose wives. The pro-
posed society in Portsmouth will carry out
similar arrangement, except that the
girls who desire to assemble in a church
to be thus chosen will have to register
with the society three mOnChs ahead of the
date, so that the society may satisfy itself
that they are girls of good moral character,
and the men who are to apply at the
church to select brides will be required to
register three months prior to the date of
choosing, so that the society may inYesti.
gate their characters to ascertain if they
| are industrious and temperate. Only men
who have these qualities will be allowed
to chose a wife. Those who register will
be informed fifteen days in advance of
their standing. Men will be required to
pay registration fee of one dollar, but
girls will be allowed to register free. The lis
tended brides viii probably he required to
wear white, instead of black, as in Naples.
The principal object of the society is to
afford girls who desire to. marry an oppor-
tupity to secure temperate and industriouc
ihuebsndc.

Quent on his cherished grievance OF in
sufficient means of exit in case of fire
or panic, and fervid in praise of the
sense and courage of the man who first
turned off the gas at the main, and then
started the hymn at the critical mo-
ment.
4 His voice was like a Cathedral
bell" he said; "by the way, who was
he?"
And where is he?" added Beatrice.
They found him next morning, face
downwards, on the gallery floor. West
land said that he must have been dead
for some hours, and probably uncOn-
scious for many more. A small crowd
gradually entered the church as the
rumor of the death spread. DR.. Ash
worth, who had been busy appraising
the damage done to the tower, made
his way through them to the font, at the
foot of which just inside the south en-
trance, the unknown Organ-player with
the smoke stains removed from his
face. was laid in his last deep sleep.
The old vicar pre-occupied, he was
thinking of the weird beli-ringing CT the
previous night that ne had just been
discussing in the belfry with Beatrice.
Like wedding bells" they agreed, for

He forgot the bells when he saw the

it and was silent for a space. Then,
