during one of the happy holiday times

Heath, but the crowd refused to hear
him. He had taken the precaution,
however, to send copies of his intend
ed Grafton to all the leading journals
before leaving town, and these, OF
course, printed it. The judicrous Incl

GIRL THAT LOVED A SOLDIER
With Removal Of Young Wom-
an to Asylum.

The pathetic romance of "a lass that
loved a soldier" concluded the other
day by the removal of Magdalene Her
mann of Gronau, Saxony, to an asylum
for the mentally diseased, says a Ber-
lin correspondent of the London News.
Twenty years ago during the imperial
maneuvers a smart artillery regiment
was quartered in Gronau. AS is GUS
tOmary during the maneuver billet
ings, sergeant began to firt with
Magdalene and promised her marriage.
The promise was not seriously intend
ed, but poor Magdalene took it all in
earnest, and from that day to this
she has never ceased to meet trains
by night or day coming from the SER
geants garrison town.
Some years ago, as her beloved
Sergeant Albert had still not arrived,
Magdalene jumped to the conclusion
that the war Office opposed the we'd
ding and she has since bombarded the
military authorities with petitions for
permission to marry the sergeant Aft
err time the authorities ceased to an
swer her letters. Magdalene there
upon concluded that the post office
was now suppressing them, and ever
since has walked ten miles daily to
post her letters in a neighboring town.

ENGLISH MONEY DOWN SOUTH
Being Invested TO Large Extent In
Railroad and Industrial
Enterprises.

For several years prior to the Bar
ing failure English capital was being
Invested to a very large extent in
southern railroad and Industrial enter.
prises. At the time of the Barring col.
lapse many negotiations we're under
way in England, with good prospects
OF success, for other large investments
in the purchase of mineral and timber
properties, in the building Of railroads
and in various undertakings looking to
broad development of southern re-
sources.
Following that failure, and the col
lapse Of business and financial inter
ests in this country with the panic Of
1893 and the free silver agitation of
the next few years, English capital
sought other channels for investment.
This condition has existed for nearly
twenty years, but now there is a
marked revival of interest on the part
of English capital in southern invest
ments.
Within the last few months English
cotton manufacturers have put $1,000
600 into the purchase Of cotton lands
in Mississippi and 100000 into
great irrigation enterprise in Texas.
Negotiations are now under way in
England for the financing Of some
large water power enterprises and a
number of other undertakings, the
carrying out Of which would prove of
very great value 70 the south.
