Some dangerous enemies to our com
merce have been recently reported off the
American coast, between Florida and Bal
masted by storms and abandoned by their
crews. They are more of real menace
TO our merchant marine than the Spanish
navy ever was. They would make good
targets for practice by our warships.

: 1t is announced that hereafter the
Greeks intend TO exclude all bachelors
from their parliament. The idea seems to
be that. the bachelor has no stake in the
commonwealth, and no right to sit in the
parliament as a legislator; for, whom does
ne represent except himself? If that were
the rule in Georgia, what a hustling there
would be for licenses every two years.

1t is reported. that Madame Patd, the
famous singer. viii marry a Swedish no
bleman, Baron Cederstrom, next February.
Patti has been married twice. Her first
husband was the Marquis de Caux. Diff
ferences in age and temperament, how
ever, led to an estrangement, and Patti
bestowed her affections upon Nicolini, who
was then singing tenor In her company.
For ten years the prima donna and the
tenor were devoted to each other, not
withstanding each was the spouse of an
other. Finally divorces made it possible
for them to marry, and they became man
and wife in June, 1886. Nicolini died last
January. The story Is that Patti will
mourn for him a month longer than the
conventional year, and will then become
the Baroness Cederstrom. She is about
fifty-fve years old.

Sheridan at the MilIiner's,

General Sheridan as he became older
conquered his shyness. At the time of
the m he was in Paris with his
aid-de-camp. There was also stopping
ut tho same hotel n charming American
woman with whom he was slightly ac-
quainted. The prisoners had been liber-
ated and were rushing madly through
the streets. The order had also been
given that all windows and shutters
must be kept closed. Shut up in her
dark room and hearing the noisy rabble
below, the woman became greatly
alarmed.
"There is but one thing for me to
do" she cried, 'to insure safety. will
put myself under the care of the Ameri-
can general"
She therefore sent her card to Sheri-
dan, who at once called and offered his
services. He also advised that she should
join his party in the morning and get
away to London. Still she appeared dis
tresscd. Finally she cried: at is my
bonnets ut Virot's. They were to have
been down today. How can I go and
leave them?"
The general grasped the situation and
offered his arm to escort her to the mil
liners. Happily it was not far off.
Ever afterward he delighted to tell Of
his pleasure at seeing such an array Of
dainty h~cadgear. He had never been at
a milliner's before. New York Sun.

THEY WE'RE WE'D.

Pretty Hiss Polly declared she'd not wed.
She'd rather, yes, rather, far rather, be dead.
'Twere better to lie in the cold, cold grave
Than be some horrid mans humble slave,
For what is IA wife but a slave?" she said.
"a slave when once she is wed!'
Handsome young Harry, too, said he'd not
wed,
For a wife must be petted and pampered and
fed.
"Twere better to live your life all alone,
That your nose may escape the proverbial
grindstone,
"For a husband is naught but a slave!" he
said,
"A slave when once he is we'd"
As might be expected. this perverse young
pair
Fell in love Mt first sight and did straigbtway
declare,
'Twere better, far better, they twain should
be one
Than lonely to sigh and true happiness shun,
"For love is a slave, yes, a slave!" SO they
said.
Forever n slave" and they wed.

NJ think it's lovely. Come to tea to-
morrow afternoon, Will you:"
"How about military discipline, Miss
Bascome?"
"Obey my ORDERS" said Nelly severe
ly. And with that she marched away.
But she said not one word to her ia
ther about her discovery, although she
knew what was ~puzzling him when he
sat pulling his mustache in the tent aft
er evening parade.
Next afternoon, as Nelly and one or
two girl friends whom she had invited
out to camp were arranging things for
her afternoon tea, the lieutenant colo
nel's daughter remarked to n father,
dad, I've invited only one maj to tea
this afternoon-an enlisted man"
1.-The deuce you have!'
"Just so. Private Lee Shepherd,
Company F."
"That lad 1 spoke to yesterday"
"The same"
And just at hat moment the orderly
reported Private Shepherd, Company F.
"I'm here by order, SIR" said Lee,
saluting.
The lieutenant colonel looked hard at
the enlisted man for a moment or two,
and then burst out: "By jingol 1t was
no hallucination after all. Didn't you
tell me you lived in this state?"
Eyes, sir. But you didn't ask me
where l was born. Pm from North Car
DINA, and they say l look very much
like my grandfather, General Good
love-"
But Nelly didn't hint to her father
that she knew anything of his civil war
omanc until a week later, when the
regiment was on the eve of its departure
for the front.
Then she said, taking his arm affec-
tionately: dad, Pm glad you married
my mamma! I'm glad you didn't marry
General Goodlowe's daughter"
Tut, tut, child! What are you talk
ing about?"
"Well, you know, all that cribbage
and all might have ended in that way"
She was laughing, as the l~ieutenantc colo
mel thought, very impertinently. Then
she Welt Oh: II mean it would-it's
better that Lee Shepherd isn't my
brother. l mean to say if he were I
should have both a father and a brother
leaving mo to go and fight those Span
iards. That would be quite too much"
But tho fact that Lee Shepherd was
not her brother did not seem to alleviate
Nelly's sadness in the least degree when
the regiment started for the front next
morning.
The end of the story, in fact, cannot
be told until the present war ends and
Company F gets home. EVEN Mac
pherson in New York World.

1t is somewhat remarkable that the
only known maps of the Valley Forge
encampment during the winter of
TITS were made. known to an Amer
lean as late as last summer, when Judge
Pennypacker discovered them in Am
sterdam, and that, presented before the
Sons of the Revolution on their visit to
Valley Forge Saturday, they will only
become known to the American public
when published in the society's year
book. The series of maps now in Judge
Pennypacker's possession and made
originally by a French engineer with the
American army include not only care
full drawings of the Valley Forge en-
campment. but plans also Of the battle
fields Of Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
1t is understood hat the plot Of the
Valley Forge encampment modifies ma
terially the traditions concerning the
camp, showing the location Of troops
where heretofore no troops have been
supposed to have had their encampment.
The careful Hollander who contributed
SO heartily to the American cause ap-
pears to have contributed the last chap
ter to the history of the cause by pre-
serving these maps until they fell into
the right hands. - Philadelphia In
