THkKW AWAY A CJiOWN. 1 A FRENCH WOMAN WHO DID THIS WITHOUT KNOWING IT. Bonaparte's Match Making Friend Meets with a Snni Disappointment—Tlie Young Corslcun Needed Money, but Not a Granduiotticr. At the C' ii lenccment of his career I the great Na|.o"oti fell in with an ardent revolutionist M. Paul Francois Hurras, who took a hi liking to the young 1 Corsiean, ; d conceived the highest opinion of h :■ .ilities and of the powers which, events proved, lie possessed in so remarkable a d greo. lUtt in the opinion of Barras, Napoleon's want of means | was a musts ri.ius obstacle to hi-, cbanco of achievin.:; fan:.", ami lie proposes to I remedy this by selecting for him a rich wife. Now. whether it was that he did ; not number am "ig bis acquaintances many wonie i with the requisite dot, or whether he thought that his portage's fiery youth \ uiki he belter for the re- ! straining in' : i • • which a wife of some experience i th • ways of the world would no di ibt be able to exert, Barras cho. • for t s p.> lion a woman who, I though :::.! .' .b!y hand. was no lon i-r i Though - n .-• called Mile.

N"p ilm 'a was quite tlie last man to i ly i.i such a respect.

I Mil ■ Montansier lias come here this ! evening pr. pai d to hear a declaration from you. ; while the iron is hot, and win the wi .hi: that you cannot do | without at one bold stroke." "The woman is old enough to be my grandmother." slid Napoleon, who was j then 23 y i old: "but that is no mat- i ter, for lo me all women are alike. Money is what I want; and, if I cannot get it without a wife, I must take the two together. I am no coiner of pretty speeches, but before tlie evening is over 1 will say to her: 'Mademoiselle, are you willing to accept me as your hus band?' More than that I cannot do." "The very kind of proposal that any woman would expect from a blunt sol dier," replied Barras. "Say that, and I desire no more. You are to be envied; for, besides ber wealth, mademoiselle is very handsome still." THE FORESTALLED PROPOSAL. Napoleon turned away with a gesture of impatience; but half an hour later Barras noticed, to his joy, that the two were alone together in a recess. Presently Napoleon got up and went away, and the lady beckoned to Barras with her fan. "Take away that dreadful little man," she said with a shudder; "he has bored me to death, and I only prevented him from proposing by sending him for a glass of lemonade." "But why prevent him?" said Barras. "He will be a great man yet." "Give myself and my money to such a j little horror, such an ill-mannered boor j as that!" replied mademoiselle. "Never! > I would sooner take the first beggar man j cut of the streets. What have I done j that I should lie given such a wretched ! Bvening? Don't let your" But at this moment she was checked 1 by the arrival of Napoleon with tho j lemonade. Barras hurried away, still j hoping for the best; but soon he saw at the other end of the room Bonaparte standing in the attitude in which he has so often lieen depicted, with his arms folded and his chin sunk upon them. "Well, are you to be married?" he said, hastening towards his protege, "That old nctress," said Napoleon,"that female Croesus refused me before I had opqned my mouth to ask her hand. I was on the point of speaking, as I told you I should speak, when she began to inform me that her wealth was the cause of her constantly receiving offers from adven ! turers who cared nothing for herself; that she thanked Providence sho had so far ' seen through some fellows, and that she was re i >lved to keep her independence. I was glad 1 had not spoken, for it gave i me the opportunity of saying: 'Made moiselle. pray persevere in that praise worthy intention; it is one which I am sure no one will ever try to persuade you to alter.' Let her keep her millions to bait the hook for some one else; I have done with her." And in spite of Barras' endeavors the affair ended there. In after years Mile. Montansier was fond of boasting that, had shechosen, she might have been empress of France and wife of the most famous man of the age. Gould she have been gifted with the fac ulty of foresight, no doubt she would have regarded more leniently the young man whom M. Barras wished her to marry.— Chambers' Journal. A! tlr l <i;w Office Window. "Anything new this year for the peo ple in ibewayof gas meters?" asked a | subdued looking citizen at one of the j windows of the gas office oi: Dearborn 1 and Lake streets. The man on the inside, whose long at tention to duty at that post has made him look haughty, tried to thaw out in | front of the inquiry. "You may say," he replied, as if he were conferring a favor, "that our gas j meters will run this year as usual— which is to say, all right. And let me ! say another thing. There has been a good d; al of complaint in the year gone, 1 at this very window, and to this very | person now speaking, sir, that we have rendered bills to people for gas who were out of town and who had not lighted a burner in six weeks. They have come to us and exclaimed with air of triumph, sir, that they had us at last. A sort of ah-lia business, you know, like ! the villain in the first act of the play." Then the man at the window paused, took a fresh grip on his breath and re sumed: "You may say to these deluded peo ple that a certain amount of gas is forced through the meter, any way, and if it isn't burned it will leak, and the register marks it up just as if it were burned. So you see that the gas com pany is not a robber after all. Tell that to the people." The man without gave a longing look and gasped: "Then there is no hope?" "You can take out the meter," said the wretch inside, as he resumed his work of compounding.—Chicago Trib une. Tho Ili-.it Wearing Leather. But very few people who wear Cordo van shoes have any idea where the leather bearing that name comes from, hence the question is often asked, "What is Cordovan?" "Cordovan." tho name by which leather madfrom tho hides of horses is now known, was iirst finished in Ham burg, Germany, under the name of Ross In c .ml i lation with it the hide lias i four layi is of muscular skins which, | with the "shell," give to the horse the j great and In i lendous pulling power that j make., the animal so serviceable to man kind. This "shell," if properly tanned and sba w ii clean of its sinewy matter— a mo t difficult task—make i the best wearing 1 . titer in exi. :• ace. and proves i the theory o. old time shoemakers —that only leather of a long fiber will wear— -1 to be a mistaken, one, as the 'via 11" litis no liber. In this it 1. as a decided advantage over call'.- kin with its fibers; the breaking of any one thro additional strain upon the other, ntid a I reak in tho leather soon fol lows. Experience has demonstrated that the ] "shell" will wear two or three times long ! or than calfskin. j Cordovan posii-ws another great ad l vantage in b. ing the nearest waterproof jof any leather made. The fineness of j texture' also permits its taking a very ' high poli-;h.—St. Louis Republic. The Indian in Literature. ' Cooper is said, by Bradner Matthews, to have been tho first author who intro duced tho red man into literature. This has been disputed, and it is alleged that "Chateaubriand, who visited the new world in the year of Cooper's birth, cer tainly did not neglect tho noble savage." But here are some mistakes. Chateau briand was in America in 1791, when Cooper was 2 years eld. His "Atala," a tale of Indian life, appeared in 1801. Cooper's first novel appeared anonymous ly in 1819, and his "Last of the Mohi cans" in 1826. But Thomas Campbell had introduced the Indian to English literature in his "Gertrude of Wyoming," which appeared in 1809. But Alexander Pope's lines, beginning "Lo, the poor In dian," appeared about 1782, more than fifty years before Cooper was born; and it certainly refers to the red man of America, for the poet adds that his "humbler heaven" is a place Where slaves once more their native land behold No fiends torment, no Christians thirst for gold. Tlie "Christians" here mentioned were the Spanish invaders of America.—Low ell Courier. The Use of Letters. j It may not be generally known to the j reading public how much each individual ' letter of the alphabet is used. D, h, n, o, ' c and u are in third place as regards Ordi j nary use; t, s, a, i and r are in second ! place, being used a very little oftener; 1 | and m are in fourth place, with f, g, y, I v, p and b close afterward; j and k aro I not common, as compared to the rest; | while z, q and x are used least of all. j The letter e is in first place, being used ! Car oftener than any other.—Christian at Work. KENTUCKY'S PIONEERS. THE EARLY MOTHERS WHO COULD PROTECT THEMSELVES. Women mi l Children as Indian Fighters. Mr*. Davie*#' Strategic Movement for the Capture of a Lawless White Enemy of tier Husband—The Story of "Sharp Eye." In the early settlement of Kentucky, tlio boys, and even the women and chil dren, I. came as thorough soldiers as the men, This was the result of their sur roundings.

A fair iiln ir ii ion is found in the case of a Mrs. Daviess, whose husband was among the I settlers of Lincoln county. She could let an Indian with as steady a name ■ , Daniel Boone himself.

Upon hi. nit ring the cabin sho asked him if h • tiuld not "take a dram" —no pioii" ; '■> home was over found without its whisky bottle, which was kept as a remedy i> r snake biles, etc. She put the bottle on the table and told him to step up and help himself. Lie set his gun against the cabin wall to comply with her invitation, and, after a hearty pull at the bottle, lie turned to And himself look ing into the tnuzzlo of his own rifle, which Mrs. Daviess bad picked up while he was drinking, cocked it, and stood with it leveled at his head. When he asked her wli.it she meant, she informed him that he had stolen her husband's property, and she meant t > keep him there until i.is r tm.i, a.el she did. Blie stood guard over hint until her husband's return, when she delivered to him her pi i siner The ij-iys were no less brave and man ful fn light the "Injuns" was the tirst thing they i timed, and, by i no time they could lift a rifle they knew how to use it.

TI: savages vowed ven geance cgai'ict bun and his family, and shortly another incursion was made by them un i rtliel •ndersbip of the brother of the fallen chief. As usual, Hart was first on their trail, end the savages re treated i >v,ard the Ohio. The whites finally ci s 'red of overtaking them and returned! . when the Indian, turned upon ti: I".

Daviess, a little after day light. got lip and stepped out of his cabin, lie had proceeded' but a short UisLince from tb Juor when, turning, lie beheld a numbi: ol .-arttges behind him and the cabin. Seeing there was no chance to render his family assistance, lie fled to the nearest station, which was five miles distant, for help. The Indians made prisoners of his wife and children, the eldest a boy 12 years old, and, knowing Daviess had escaped, they soon left with their pris oners, hoping to escape beyond the Ohio. Daviess gathered a force, and pursued so rapidly as to overtake them before night. As usual, when about to be brought to bay, the savages essayed to kill their prisoners, but were too closely pressed by the whites. A savage, however, succeeded in knocking down the boy and scalping him. The boy was not killed, only stunned by the blow, and almost as soon as the savage left him bounded to his feet, exclaim ing: "Duru that Injun, he's got my scalp." The boy lived to grow up to manhood, but was ever after "bald headed"; the hair would grow no more on that part of the head which had been scalped. He never forgave tho savages for rendering him prematurely bald headed, but swore eternal vengeance against them. In the summer of 1792, ten years after his ex periences detailed above, a band of In dians raided the settlement, and stole a number of horses. Young Daviess joined a party in pursuit of them. When the savages found they would be overtaken they ambushed tho whites, and in the j skirmish that ensued young Daviess was | killed. Thus the Indian fatality clung to him.- William Henry Perrin in Louis- I ville Courier-Journal. I I,FADING BUSINESS HOUSES.
