The women in the Neudorf convent
prison were all so kindly in their ways,
so peaceful and good humored, they diff
fered so completely from our precon-
ceived ideas of criminals, that we were
puzzled to imagine what could have
brought them into prison, says a writer
in the Cornhill Magazine. We had never
a doubt that their offenses were of the
most trivial nature and we said so. The
superior gave US one of her odd, hui
morous smiles.

mischievous scholar she had ever had,
but the mischief was all of a healthy
kind, the result of a vigorous vitality
and childish desire to be always doing
something.
1t was in 1875 that Mrs Lord and the
two girls moved from Springfield to
Princeton, n. J.. and it was there that
Mamie Lord met the man who afterward
became her husband. The first five years
in Princeton the two sisters attended
private school kept by a Mrs Moffit,
wife of one of the professors of the the
illogical school. To put the finishing
touches to her education she was sent
for a short time to the female college
at Elmira, n. +, and on her return
home she met Walter Erskne Dimmick
son of Samuel E. Dimmick, a wealthy
lawyer, and one of the political powers
of Pennsylvania.
The young people speedily fell in love,
but the parents of each objected TO all
talk of an engagement of matrimony be-
cause of their youth. This was in 1872
and young Dimmick had not yet grad
uated from the Columbia Law school,
where he was completing his educa-
ton. He graduated in 1880 and became
member of New York law firm. After
another effort to reconcile their parents
to the match had failed, the two took
matters into their own hands and eloped.
Their marriage took place in October,
1881, and in the following January the
young husband was stricken with ty-
phoid fever, and died after a brief i'll

the opal was attached to its owner by
invisible cords, and that it was impos-
slble to lose it though it might be mis-
laid. The Philadelphia broker on his
return to Philadelphia chose the finest
opal in his collection, and had it set
in ring surrounded by small dia-
monds, and at Christmas presented it
to his wife. 1t was truly beauty, and
she wore it with conscious pride.
One day, on returning from days
outing, She received quite a shock-the
opal was gone. Search proved vain.
No trace of the stone could she dis
cover. Not only on account of it's val
lie, but because she knew how highly
her husband priced the stone, she
hated to inform him of her loss. At
last she felt obliged to do so; when,
greatly to her establishment, he drew
from his vest pocket a, tiny package
and presented it to her. Upon opening
it what was her delight when she re-
cogniZed her lost opal
More establishment still, her husband
affirmed that while he was walking
down Chestnut street a day or two be-
fore, he felt something under the sole
of his shoe, which proved to be the
opal which he had last seen simmer
ing upon his wlfe's finger. There was
no doubt about it's being the lost one,
for the jewele1 who had set it recog-
nized it also.-Philadelphi Times.

that of rushing 20 notable weddings and
funerals. The wedding is also pregnant
with more than ordinaT interest for the
reason that it is generally understood
that General Harrisons children. Russell
b. Harrison and Mrs. Mckee, will keep
aloof from the nuptual festivities, and,
moreover, Will avoid meeting their step
mother on all possible occasions.
The Shrewd men who make presidents
of the United States are also watching
the matrimonial venture with curious in
terest. They are the men who believe
that a powerful string was attached to
the generals letter of declination, writ
ten to his friends in regard to the NOM
ination. A little thing like a wedding
can excite popular interest to fever heat,
and some people think it may have a
tendency to make the bridegroom a po-
tent factor at the coming battle in st.
Louis
POLITICS AND MATRIMONY
However, the mingling of the merry
dngle of the wedding bells with the hid
eous shrek of politics is an inharmon-
aous business. Besides, it is unkind 10
1nsinuate that the general has one eye
glued on st. Louis, while the other is

LOST OPAL srRANaELY FOUND.

A wealthy broker of West Philadel-
phia had rather singular experience
the other day. He and his family have
had in their possession opals, but the
superstition which was formerly en-
tertained concerning the stones being
unlucky prevented him from making
use of the gems. Last year he took a
trip to Europe. While in London he
met at the house of mutual friend
a dealer in precious stones, who had
just come from Gracias Dios, in Hon.
duras, and had brought back some
fine gems.
Instead of putting any faith in the
popular superstition, this gentleman
believed in the opal very thoroughly,
and attributed to it virtues which no
other gem possessed. Among the
things which he said about, twas that

foundation to build upon, because it will
be the personifcation of quiet Simplic-
ity, and in that the future Mrs. Harri-
son shows rare good taste, which has al
ways been her chief characteristic.
THE BRIDE.
The central figure at all weddings is
the bride, for weddings are always re-
garded as the peculiar property Of
times to once at the groom. Mrs. Dim
mick will make very fair bride to look
upon, Notwithstanding that she is near
ing the age of forty. Her figure is more
rounded and plump. She is what most
people call petite, in her girlhood days
she was Vivacious, but now her spright-
Illness has been mellowed into a quiet
dignity which well BELTS the wife of
man like General Harrison.
Mrs Dimmick's life has been sad one.
Her father, Russell B. Lord, and her
mother separated when she was a small
child. Her early life was embittered by
domestic dissensions which were only
ended when her mother took the two
little girls, Lizzie and Mary. back to In
where the grandfather of her
DR.. Scott. Presbyterian
preacher, lived. Shortly after this sad
Springfield, H., and there the future
Mrs. Harrison grew up. DIR. Scott was
for a time president of the Presbyterian
institution now known as the Concordia
college of Springfield, but not making a
success of it he established private
school, which yielded a fair support for
the little family.
Ore of the events in the house was
an occasional visit from Mrs. Lords sis
ter, Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, and her
husband, then lawyer of some local
repute in Indianapolis. The two young
girls were immensely fond of Aunt Car
RE and Uncle Ben. but if any one had
then spoken of the possibility of the
little dark-eyed Mamie Lord being one
day the wife of Uncle Ben that person
would have been assuredly regarded as
The ripest subject for an insane asylum
