{ The Good Gir1 s

BY Francois coppee

She hurried to cupboard. took from it
| tablecloth, a bottle of wine, a loaf
of bread, large piece of meat.
AS he began to stammer his thanks
and offer to explain his condition she
interrupted him, saying:
Don't trouble yourself to entertain
| me now Eat, for Gods sake, before
you do anything else
AS soon as she noticed that he was
eating ravenously she had the delicacy
to leave the table and busy herself with
the fire and other things. To herself she
| continued to murmur, Poor fellow, poor
devil"
Finally she returned to the table feel
ing that his modesty would stop him
from satisfying his appetite. She
placed another large piece Of meat on
the plate and filled his glass with fresh
wine, just as mother would care for
her son. Then she cried suddenly,
How stupid of me. How can I expect
to think that you are satisfying your
hunger without having something warm.
What do you say to a cup of coffee?
Hey?"
Without awaiting his reply she took
the coffee mill and began to grind the
beans. While thus employed he OBJ
served her more closely. She was a
hands and course features. Could she
ever have been beautiful and attrac-
tive?
Leo BernlS was a poet and was deS-
tined to become a great man. He re-
garded her with moist eyes, in which
tenderness and gratitude were reflect
ed. And while she poured out the
coffee and for company's sake took a
cup herself he asked her her name
She did not answer at once. She re-
NAMED standing on the opposite side
of the table as if she We're bashful,
crossed her arms and reflected At last
she said
why should tell you my name? Be-
tween me, a cast-away, and you, a
respectable young man, there can be no
bond in common. What have done is
not worth speaking of, and 1 know that
though you are now unhappy you will
soon see more fortunate days. You are
young and don't you give up courage.
What is your business?"
A bitter smile spread over Leo's face
Il have written verses he said
Without displaying the least astonish-
ment she continued:
"Ah, l understand. You compose
songs. You find it hard to secure sales
for them. Don't worry. Have patience,
You want to know my name? Well,
they call me MargOt. You will not sing
about me for there are so many fairer
creatures. Should you take notion to
do so you will have to call me Mar
guerita."
Then followed a long silence He felt
that it was time to go.
/ AS he stood on the threshold to bid
! her adieu Leo Bernis had a golden
idea. AS true poet he could not act
| otherwise toward one whose soul ap-
| peared beautiful to him on account of
the human love and kindness displayed.
Like true knight he took her coarse
black nailed hand, the hand of the out
cast. and bowling respectfully, pressed
upon 1T kiss. To him it was the hand
| of a queen.

COAL AND WOOD,
A Ton of Coal Equal to Two Cords Of
Wood

The proportionate heating power OF
coal and wood, says the Rural New
Yorker, in answer to an inquirer has
been settled by eMpe eriment. 1t has been
found that one pound of charcoal heats
seventy-three pounds of water from thir-
ty-'two degrees (Which is the freezing
poinD to 212 degrees, which is the boiling
point of water. One pound Of anthracite
coal heats seventy pounds of water in
the same way, and one pound of dry wood
meats thirty-f1ve pounds of water the
same, so that the coal has just twice the
heating power that dry wood has, and
a little less than charcoal has. OF course,
wood that is not dry loses a proportions
ate heating value corresponding to the
quantity of water remaining in it, and
air dry wood has on an average twelye
per cent water in it. So that we may
reasonably estimate the value of one ton
of anthracite coal to be equal to two
cords OF wood, and this of course, is
based on the fact that the coal is nearly
a solid mass, while a cord of wood is
very nearly if not quite, one-half empty
spacesand some of it is bark, which has
much less heating value than wood It
might be interesting to note that the loss
of heat of fuel burned in an open fire.
place is three-fourths of it. this escap-
ing up the chimney, and only one-fourth
radiating in the room, while burned in
stove provided with proper hampers, to
control the current of air through the
fire. the loss is not quite one-fourth.

THAT BUTLER INCIDENT
At Guy scott's Wedding the Text of
an Interesting auarter-cOlumn
stnrv in q San francisco Paper.


Story in San francisco Paper.
The butler incident in connection with
the recent wedding of Mr.. Guy T. Scott,
U. S. A., at San Francisco, forms the
text for an entertaining quarter col
umn story In the San Francisco Chron-
Icle. Says the Chronicles:
John Callagban, young and ambl-
tlous butler posed as an army lIeuten-
ant for a few fleeing hours Tuesday
night and amused himself by freely dis
tributtng brass buttons and shoulder
straps to women whom he CHANGED to
meet. 1t was quite an expense to some
one, but Calllghan did not care. He
was the butler for DR.. a. H. VOORHEES,,
of Pill California street, and the uni
form in which he masqueraded was the
brand-new wedding suit OF Lieutenant
Guy r. Scott, who had on that evening
been married to Miss Leila Grant Voor-
HES. daughter OF Callaghan's employer.
The butler who would be a soldier
had been employed In the VOORHEES,
household just one month. On the night
Of the wedding he stood at the door, an
nouncing the guests. The marriage GER
emory over, he stood around listening
to the popping of corks at the wedding
supper until the temptation to help
himself to the wine In the pantry be-
came too great to be overcome. Once
started drinking, he quaffbd many a
health to absent friends. Then, when
the lights began to dance, he gazed ad-
miringly at the bright uniform OF the
groom and decided that he would rnth-
er he soldier than butler. The but
ler's glorious opportunity soon came.
The groom, desiring TO put on civil
ian suit. slipped into the buffers room
and made the change. Callaghnn found
the uniform in his room and tried II on.
He looked in the glass and then start
ed down town. "I'll Just show them"
he said, thickly. "how a lieutenant
should go down the line"
Cnllaghan met some women ind told
them that he had Joined the army He
makes lovely lieutenant" said one.
Have n button" said CRllaghan, as
he plucked souvenir from the grooms
new uniform.
He ought to BIZ colonel at least"
lsppd another friend.
Have two buttons" said the butler,
as he iight-heartedly tore away two
more souvenirs
He's sweet enough to be n general"
murmured n third.
Have a shoulder-strap," said Gala
CHAN, as he generously Invested himself
Of half OF his rank.
In the district where the electric
lights burn all night regardless OF re-
form administrations, the butler con-
tlnued his celebration until he had
given away all the buttons that had
adorned the uniform and both shout
der-straps. Then he went back to the
VOORHEES, place and turned in, He wore
part of the uniform TO bed, taking on
the coat, as It had no buttons and felt
uncomfortable,
The brides brother found the
wrecked uniform and n muddied butler
when he went to call Callaghan yester-
day morning. Cnllnghan Is now In Jail
for disturbing the peace and malicious
mischief The compainpnts say that he
was rlotous and abusive when he came
to realize the difference IN the morning.
81 don't remember n blooming thing"
says the butler.

With no relative near, no loving wife

Charley Howe, a hero of the Spanish

served in Uncle Sans navy during the
war Of the Rebellion and when Congress
declared war against Spain he gave up
his position as porter at Stone &
Thomas stores and went to New York.
where he enlisted mud was assigned to
duty on the United States gunboat
Yankee, which was actively engaged
throughout the war in southern waters
and was especially prominent In the
battle Of Santiago.

by many as being very HfeI!ke.
