Two Girls and a Farmer.

"A Puritan Witch" (The Smart Set Pub
fishing Company is story OF early New
England life by Mr.. Marvin Dana. Serious
times those, especially for the young folks;
when most forms Of innocent amusement
were frowned upon as inventions OF the
Evil One. Much too serious were they for
the taste of Mistress Anna Parton, who is
thus described in the first chapter: She was
tall and fair, with face that was by nature
proud in it's lines, though to those who knew
her it seemed only rebellous. In her eyes
there were depths Of passion. The mouth
was of medium size and traced by two
crimson borders which were the admiration
of every unregenerate young man in Green's
boro'. The delicate waterline Of the nose,
the level narrow brow, the oval curve OF
her face, the masses Of her golden hair, the
slender grace of her form, these made
whole that was indeed good to look upon,
and Miss Anna Parton was known through
out the country as one Of its bellies. At
every corn-husking and quilting bee, at
mape-sugarings and donations, there were
always levelled on her the masked batteries
of eyes from the solemn faces Of the young
men, Yet these decorous lads dared look
only by stealth, for fear Of rebuke from
their elders, and they had little chance to
come upon her privately, so closely did her
uncle regulate her gongs-out and comings-
in"
We are not altogether sure of the meaning
Of the water line Of Annals nose, but here
surely was a highly pleasing maid, and it
is not to be wondered at that she presently
created disturbance in the hitherto I'M
troubled bosom of young John Wickers,
her neighbor and a handsome farmer,
who had no vices and had been guilty Of
no levity greater than an occasional walk
abroad on the Lords day. solely for the
pleasure Of it. John Wickers was in luck.
Not only did the fair mistress Anna give
him sundry kisses one summer night, but he
was also beloved of the beautiful Mistress
Mary Leonard. Mary was neither short
nor tall, but her figure, We are told. was
perfection.
Her gray eyes were large and Of ex-
traordinary lustre, with a length at the
further ends that gave a strange intensity
to their expression. The nose was so nearly
straight that one was in constant doubt
az to whether or not it's line was really
subtly concave. The mouth was q rosy
mesh of graceful curves, with the daintiest
Of dimples for its enhancing. The teeth
were pearls, small and even. The cheeks
were soft as the snow and touched warmly
with red, which fickered beautiful flame
of color with every varying mood" John
watered and fed the stock, and did the chores
for her when the hired man was away,
and it was not his fault that presently the
jealousy of Mistress Anna made trouble
for them both A pleasing story and a
satisfying one, though the chapter en-
titled Trial by Torture, in which Mistress
Mary, accused OF witchcraft, has needles
stuck into her by the judges searching for
the Devils mark" is calculated to give a
nervous reader the creeps.

No wonder, we should say, that Mike
undertook with some confidence to stand
up for four rounds against the Dublin
Terror, "a rugged. powerful ruffian, with
lumpy shoulders, thick short neck, and a
shock gorilla head" on exhibition in a
Bowery theatre. The management offered
5000 to anybody who would so stand up,
and it was the money that Mike was after;
he had lost his job at driving the grocery
wagon, and he needed money for house,
hold expenses and to buy Christmas pres
ents for his little half brother. who was
a most amiable child and a cripple. The
event of the story was SO plain to us from
the beginning that we feel it to be no be-

SHIP SCHOOL NOT IN TROUBLE
Statement From the General Manager

by William E. Winant at Perth Amboy on
June 20, has moved the Nautical Prepare

was engaged TO design the model and Ella =
borate the plans of the ship, and that he
was discharged on April 80 of this year for
specific reasons.
The total amount due on Winant con-
tract, according to Mr., Oswald. was $4,000,
and he was paid $500. a trife more than
was due him at the time OF his discharge
He is now suing for what would have bee n

An admirable bit of biographical work
has been done by Prof Francis Hovey
Stoddard Of the University Of the City OF
New York in -The Life and Letters OF

Mr.. Butler was a well-known lawyer of this
city, who lived to the remarkable age OF
nearly 90 years He was founder of the
Union Theological Seminary and OF the
Union League Club and closely associated
with the University on he City Of New York
from its first years. In the course OF his
long life and through his profession he
came into contact with many persons OF
distinction and saw many interesting
changes in the life and manners OF the
country Prof. Stoddard has described
all these, using Mr.. Buffers letters with
great discretion. He gives us the portrait

Mr.. Hepworth played notable part in the

left many friends who must wish that
more restraint had been used in the account
of his boyhood, and, perhaps, would have
preferred some expression Of the views Of
the other side in the story OF his breaking
away from the Unitarian Church. Miss
Ward tells the story of his life in detail
and not uninterestingly; we wish she could
have avoided the tone of ordinary memoirs
of ministers, for Hepworth was surely
enough of man to have deserved a man

HOLE PREFERRED TO DARN.

Justice David j. Brewer of the United States
Supreme Court, who has suggested what many
regard as a good remedy for the lynching evil,
lived in his childhood in Asia Minor, in the town
of Smyrna.
Justice Brewer sometimes recounts interesting
scraps of philosophy, of humor of epigram
that he heard in Smyrna when a boy. The other
day he said:
"Adjib, scribe of Smyrna, once paused TO
speak to me the highway. Adjib's robe was
white snow, but there was a hole i'll it.
