A Tar-Hee1 Maiden.

Raleigh, N. C., Post.
We do not speak ex-Cathedra, but
it is whispered about ''on the sly"
that handsome and very clever and
most popular gentleman, who occu-
pies a high and influential position
in insurance circles, will soon wed
one of the rarest and most brilliant
Jewels that ever glistened in the cor
onet of Wilson's loveliness-a gem
Of rarest worth and richest brllllancy,
for she is so bright and so radiant
that it seems that the fabric OF her
existence had for its woof the shlm-
mering splendors of an iceberg and
for its warp the glistening co7rusca-
tons of flashing lightnings. And
she is just as sweet and as good as
she is brilliant and sparkling, for
no maiden has ever been endowed
with nobler virtues or finer graces
or sweeter witcheries.

Hortense She Tells a Tale.
New York Su,1.

New York Sru.
Hortense Levy lives in Brooklyn
She is IN years old. A: school she is
considered rather deficient in mathe-
;.,atics, physical culture and nature
study. but in English literature and
composition she scores oS OF better
ort G: possible 100.
These scholastic data are interest
ing, in view of what subsequently
happened to Hortense.
Monday morning she started for
school as usual. Monday noon She
did not come home to lunch. Her
mother got nervous Finally she
went TO the school, Teacher said
that llurtense hadn't been there al
all. She had marred her otherwise
perfect record BY absence WITHOUT eN-
cuse. Then there were running and
searching among the Levys. Nhen
at o'clock Hortense had not been
seen the facts were reported to Capt.
Maude of the DeKalb avenue station.
The captain put all his spare detec-
tives on the case. They hunted
through Brooklyn and Flatbush and
the docks No Hortense.
At 7 o'clock in the evening the door
of the supperless Levy fiat opened
and there was Hortense in the flesh
her clothing slightly away. but chip
per and in good spirits.
After she had been embraced by
the entire family Hortense told this
remarkable tale:
"I was spirited away. AS | lett
the house two gentlemen approached
me and asked me to have some candy.
refused, because I remembered that
I have oeen told never to talk tc
strange gentlemen. But they toll
lowed me. Suddenly, at the entrance
to dark alley, I felt hand laid on
nv shoulder and a voice hlSSec III my
ear:
"This is the girl She shall Tx this
dayw
It is strange thing, but the mag
ination of the novelist is often proved
by the events of real life For ex-
ample, the popular novel "she Loved
a Sailor" which Hortense, as all the
Levys know, had habit OF reading
under the bed when no one was look
ing contains a passage just like this
Vet truth is often stranger than he
ton, as the next canto OF Hortenses
adventure shows:
"The sack choked my screams. l
