hung over It that inscrutabIe charm
which hoyers forever for the human
intellect over the incomprehensible
and shadowy. When the last hymn
was sung, the German conducted the
Officiator to Tant' Sannie, who gra-
ciously extended her hand and offered
coffee and a seat on the sofa. Leav-
ing him there, the German hurried
away to see how the little plum pud-
ding he had left at home was advanc-
ing, and Tant' Sannie remarked that
it was a hot day. Bonaparte gathered
her meaning as she famed herself
with the end of her apron. He bowed
low in acquiescence. A long silence
followed. Tant' Sannie spoke again.
Bonaparte gave her no ear. His eye
was fixed on small miniature on the
opposite wall, which represented Tant'
Sannie as she had appeared on the
day before her confirmation, Is years
before, attired in green muslin. Sud
denly he started to his feet, walked
up to the picture and took his stand
before it. Long and wistfully he gaZed
that he was deeply moved. With a
sudden movement, as though no longer
able to restrain himself, he seized the
picture, loosened it from it's nail and
held it close to his eyes. At length,
turning to the Boer woman, he said in
a voice Of deep emotion:
You will, l trust, dear madame, ex-
cuse this exhibition Of my feelings. but
this-this little picture recalls to NE
my first and best beloved, my dear de-
parted wife. who is now a saint in
heaven"
Tant' Sannie could not understand,
but the Hottentot maid, who had taken
tress, translated the English into
Dutch as far as she was able.
"Ah, my first, my beloved" he add
ed, looking tenderly down at the pic
ture. ooh, the beloved, the beautiful
lineaments! My angel wife! This is
surely sister Of yours, madame?" he
added, fixing his eyes on Tant' Sannie.
The Dutchwoman blushed, shook
her head and pointed to herself.
Carefully, intently, Bonaparte looked
from the picture in his hand to Tant'
Sannie's features and from the fea-
lures back to the picture. Then slowly
light broke over his countenance.
He looked up. 1t became smile. He
looked back at the miniature. His
whole countenance was effulgent.
"Ah, yes; see it now" he cried,
turning his delighted gaze on to the
Boer woman, "eyes, mouth. nose. chin,
the very expression he cried. How
is it possible did not notice it be-
fore?"
'Take another cup of coffee" said
Tant' Sannie. "Put some sugar in"
Bonaparte hung the picture tenderly
up and was turning to take the cup
from her hand when the German ap-
peared to say that the pudding was
ready and the meat on the table.

"NOw, my dear friends. let us deduce
the lessons that are to be learned from
this narrative. la#tf r-aa-
Firstly, let us never commit suicide.
That man is fool. my friends, that

joys innumerable, such as it hath not
entered into the heart of man to un-
derstand, my friends. Here are clothes,
my friends; here are beds. my friends;
here is delicious food. my friends. Our
precious bodies We're given us to love,
to cherish. Oh. let us do so! Oh. let
us never hurt them, but care for and
love them, my friends"
Every one was impressed, and Bona
parte proceeded:
Thirdly, let us not love too much.
If that young man had not loved that
young woman, he would not have
jumped into Mount Etna. The good
men of old never did so. Was Jere-
miah ever In love, or Ezekiel, or Hosea,
or even any Of the minor prophets? No.
Then why should we be? Thousands
are rolling in that lake at this mo-
ment who would say. 1t was love that
brought us here Oh, let us think al
ways Of our own souls first.

little boy and the 'meiboss;' remember
the young girl and the young man; re-
member the lake, the fire and the
birthstone; remember the SUICIDES
skeleton on the pitchy pillows of Mount
Etna; remember the voice of warning
that has this day sounded in your ears.
And what say to you say to all

them down before Bonaparte. The old
eyes now fairly brimmed over with
sparkling enjoyment,
Il have only worn them once. They
might serve; they might be endured"
Bonaparte drew them on and stood
upright, his head almost touching the
beams. The German looked at him
with profound admiration. 1t was
wonderful what a difference feathers
made in the bird.

What Did the Village Get?

Those familiar with the history Of
the right-of-way purchase will re-
member that one-half of the net pro
fits from the sale of the lots were to
go to the Village improvement Com
mittee. The committee allowed
$500 for the strip a.ong the front OF
the lots which permitted the street to
be widened. This overdrew the com
mittee's share to date by ST. $50 SO
that under the terms of the agree
ment the committee was entitled to
nearly full one-half of the lots
which remained unsold before the
division.
Did the committee get one-half as
far at actual value and Stability OF
the lots is concerned? No member
of the committee outside of the
stockholders in the company was
present when the division was made
and many business men have ex=
pressed themselves as Of the opinion
that the committees interests were
not porperly looked after.
The public would have been much
better satisfied with the. division if
the committee, who represent the
public, had been present and allowed
choice on an equal footing with
the stockholders.

WAS NOT DROWNED.
Young Deidrichson Became Temporal
riIv Deranred.

1 Il
Necedah junction, Dec. r..
The son of Rec. Deidrichson oi
INecedah, an account of whose death
by drowning was reported on Thanks
giving day, end for whose remains
the pond at Necedah was dragged
and dynamited for several days with
out success, has been found at Madi-
son, Wis.
The searchers followed Mr.. Deid-
richsou's tracks for some distance to
where they abruptly ended at hole
in the ice, and could find no further
trace of him, and it was accepted as
satisfactory evidence that he was
drowned.
No more was heard from him until
Saturday last, when his parents re-
ceived letter from him, written at
Madison, Wis, and asking that they
come alter him.
Mr.. Deidrichson claims that he did
fall into the hole in the ice which the
searchers found, to the extent Of get
ting wetting, but could remember
nothing more until he found himself
upon a freight train. Being still
partially irritational, he proceeded to
Portage and from there to Madison,
where he underwent several exper-
fences before he became sufficiently
rational to realize where and who he
was.
Mr.. Deidrichson has been confn-
ing himself very closely to study the
last year in trying to complete two
years school course in one year, and
it is thought the hard study had pro-
duced a temporary arrangement.
