"SI'LHCT STORY.
A Telegraphic Error.
December nml May, In the persons ot
Mr. Josaili Ulciid nuil Miss Darbura 1'aiil,
were uniteil homo hilf dozen yctrx ngu in
Inly bonils of matrimony. Peoplo vvlio
knew tlicin botU were much numzoj at tho
ull'ii ieu i for thu reli led ami ladylike Jliss
Paul had slio waited might Ii.vmi had
" hoiuetlihia " younger and haiidvjincr than
the venerable, ancient and many wrinkled
Jo lull.
Hcing a successful Glasgow inerehuit, the
aged Josi.di was rich ; and naturally their
iiciitiaiiitaiiccs eoneliided that his money
Mas llio chief a'.tractiiin. Perhaps it was.
It is not for us Io iinpnto motives either
good or bad; but there were not InckiiR
prophets enough, even in the small clrelo
of their personal friends, who ventured to
foretell n short, sharp, nnd deeisiie mar
lingo campaign, in which the young wlfo
would punish tho old mail, and finally como
out of tho conflict, under tho shelter of a
"judicial separation," with spoils sufficient
to maintain her in u competency for tho
remainder of her nattir.il life.
They proved f.ile prophets. Whether
money wn'j at tho bii.tom of it or not, the
pair lived ns happily unit as lovingly ns any
two lovers could hopo to do. This was so
till a certain year, when two different cir
cumstances cousp'.ied to bring matters to
such n crisis, thn' tlio judicial separation
seemed inovitalilc.
Josiah was ou tho whole an iuoffensivo
old fellow ; but when his usually sluggish
temper was once ipiickeiied into action, ho
was primu to let it carry him to such nn ex
treme Icnglh that no olio could defend him.
Durham was patient to a fault, nnd tended
him with a loving and f.iilhful dovotion ad
mirable in one so young. The two unhappy
causes which threatened for tho tiiuo being
to end their miriied life, wcro very dis
similar in themselves, though in tho end
they got somewhat mixed up. They wero
llaibara's cousin, Chtrlie Itobinson, and a
telegiam.
"llarbara," baid the antiipio Josiah, ono
morning, nt tlio bre.ikfa.t table, "I wish
that cousin of yours -'Do.tr Charlie,' as
you call him would not como hero so often
nnd nionopollzo so much of your time."
" I do not think ho does take up much of
my time," responded his wife, in a mildly
turprUed touo. "Hut I do not sco very
well how 1 could prevent him coniiiig,uiiless
I shut tho door in ids face."
"You might do worse," growled Josiah;
"a great deal worse. I hato him, willi his
pretensions, his stuck-up nirs, ids general
humbug. Why, I heard him call you his
' dear Dubs ' last night, when ho wnntcd
you to bing with him."
"You aro not jealous J" litighed llarbara
icproachfnlly ; "surely not. That is tho
' name ho called mo by when wo wcro chil-
1 drcn. Dut Pil tell him that you dislike it,
' and no doubt he'll desist."
"You would do belter to tell him not to
como nt nil, as his company is not wanted.
I overheard him say list night to tint einp.
' ty-headed chum of his th it I was an old fos-
sil. Worso still, ho said, ' That old fogy,
llleud, has a pilo of cash ; but ho is n mis
erable old skinlliut, and won't part with it,1
That was gratitude for you, ufkr finishing a
couple of bottles of my old Durgiindy and
smoking half a ikcu of my finest cigars.
110 is an impudent scamp."
"Thcro surely must bo sonio mistake,"
urged his wife. " Chiirlio would never My
th.it,"
"IIo did, though," retorted Josiuh, mi.
grily " I'm quite certain. Dctter tell him
nover to como hero again."
"I would rather not, if it please you,"
reasonably replied his wife; "it would bo
very unnatural for mo to do so."
"You consider it moro natural that I
should bo abiibcd in my own house I " cried
Josiah, now at a whito heat. "Am I
to understand you positively refuso to do
bo?"
" Well, I do not refuse," replied llarbara,
with considerable tact, going over nnd kiss,
iug him affectionately on tlio cheek" I do
not nbsolutcly refuse, but I most respect
fully decline."
Josiah was forced to bmilo at his wifo's
equivocation, and resolved to do tho thing
himself. Ho did it neatly, too. Ho wroto
to Charllo, haying that in futtiro it would bo
esteemed a favor if, at any tiiuo ho intended
calling, lie would " send intimation of his
intention beforehand, to prevent disappoint
ment," Charllo took tho hint, nnd did not
call again.
A few mouths nfter this, Josiah caught a
slight cold, and got othorwiso out of sorts,
to that tho doctor ordered him to go down,
to tlio Clyde, for change of air. It bo fell
out that Durham's mother took seriously
111 nt tho baiuo lluio ; nud as Darbara was
mi only daughter, sho had to remain at
her mother's bedside, and permit her
husband to go nway nlono, of course, on
tho understanding, that when her mother
got better, sho would at o:ico hasten to her
good man,
Josiah went to n certain town on Iho
coast which wo shall call h , and en-
Raged rooms with ids old friend, Mrs.
Meiklo. During tho first week, ho did not
Improve, though Mrs. Meiklo was very nt
teutlvo. Several letters passed between
man aud wife, bo that Darbara was advisod
as to his condition, nud not n littlo auxloiw
nbout him but her mother was still dan
ficroubly ill. Kext week, her mother rallied,
but Josiah got worse At last ho had a bo.
vero bilious attack, and was confined to bed,
fo that tho presenco of his wlfo was im
peratively necessary. Ho instructed Mrs.
Meiklo to telegraph for her; and this was
tlio telegram which was delivered to his
wife i
" Mns. Meikle, I, , To Mas, Di.knii,
oodburu Houso, Ulasgow.- Your husband
Is dead. Oome down at once."
(Ircnt consternation was tho lesult. On
llio previous day Mrs. Dleml had received a
HltcutM nolo from Josiah, haying ho was
"very ill," nnd slating that ho had been
" vomiting frequently," nud that his head
was "Kplitllng.'' bo that sho novcr i,itcs
tinned tho nccnmcy of tho telegram. Neither
did her father, nor her cousin Chirlio, who
was hcut for In tho emergency.
Hlio vvni fearfully shockod nt tho ucx
pooled Intelligence, nnd rendered well-nigh
helpless, whllo tho two men sagely shook
their heads, nnd attempted to consolo her
with homo leilccllons on tho liability of old
ago to sudden death, which wcro well-meant
but mifoittiiiatcly ineffective. Charllo tin
dertook as, of course, ho was expected to
do all tho arr.uiKciiicnts in connection with
tho funeral. Ho wont to tho cemetery that
afternoon, and ordered tho gravo to bo
opened In thrco days; ho put tho usual no
J tlco in tho papers; Issued tho customary
black-bordered mmouucemciits ; went to
1 llio undertaker's, and ordered a liaiidsomo
j collln to bo taken down to I, by tho
first train In tho morning, and indeed did
everything necessary with his usual busi
j ness-liko proinptititdo nnd dispatch, Then
! lio went to tho telegraph ofllce, and for
. warded this inc-sagei

gram received. Mrs. illeiid very much
grieved. Will bo down by Urst train lo-mor-low.
Do bebt you cm till then."
-Mrs. Melklo read tho messago to Josiah,
who smiled sweetly at his wife's loving
concern nud wifely nuxtety. It was very
Good of her to bo "much grioved," and to
ask Mrs. Meiklo to do all bho could for him.
.Mrs. Meiklo noticed his pleased expres
sion, and jocularly observed that ho seemed
to bo getting better even with tlio thought
I of her coining down, and had no doubt that
n sight of her would do him moro good
than nil llio medicines ho hail taken. In
tho morning ho felt so well that ho got up;
but his happy anticipations of his wifo's nr
lival did not last long. Lifting tho tele
gram, which Mrs. Meiklo had left lying on
tho table, ho read it, aud was horrified to
discover what Mrs. Meiklo iiad failed to
read ou tho previous evening that tho
mcssngo was not from ids wife, but from
tho hated Cliarlio Itobinson. Tho demon
of jealousy took possession of his old soul,
and dread suspicion bet him ou tho rack of
mental torture
"Chailio Itobinson at Woodburn House!"

I been there all tho tiuio I havo been awav?
I beliovo her mother's illness has been
merely a blind ; and yet tho telegram bays
tho is grieved, " very much grieved." Ay,
ay, that must bo because sho has to como
away from his delightful bocicly. They
havo had a lino time of it, calling ono
another 'Dear Charlie 1 and 'Dear Dabs.'
Well, Ibis is tlio last straw, and no mistake.
I'll mako both of them buffer, or my uamo's
not Josiah."
These and similar thoughts occupied llio
convalescent merchant fully uutil tho ar
rival of tho train.
That saino morning, Mrs. Dlend nud
Cliatlio took their places in tho train. Mrs.
Dlend had spent n sleepless night, and laid
been regretting over and over ngain that sho
had not been permitted to boo her husband
in his last illness. She was dressed in deep
mourning; her heart w as very bad, and her
mind was filled with " thoughts loo deep
for words." Her cousin, tho merry and
talkative Charlie, had tied a crapo baud
upon his arm, and ho, too, was sympathetic
nlly bilcnt. Tho two undertakers men nnd
tho coffin wero also in tlio train. Charlio
bought, nud rightly, too, that however well
ndaptcd tho West Coast might bo for sup.
plying tho necessaries of life, a coffin of
builablo sizo niul material was not a thincj
that could bo obtained thero on tho shortest
notice. That was his reason for taking ono
down with him in order to bring tho body
up to town.
Tho four persons formed a melancholy
procession to tho houso of Mrs. Meiklo.
Darbara leaned heavily on Charlie's ami,
whllo geuuino tears of sorrow chased ou0
another down her blanched cheeks, aud th0
two men followed discreetly nt n distance
with tho coffin on their shoulders.
Mrs. Meiklo opened tho door, and grasped
both of them by tho hand warmly, observ
ing that ' it was a tiuo day; "but neither
of them could reciprocate her greeting, and
therefore badly aud silently shook hands.
Without another word, Mrs. Meiklo showed
them up stairs, aud they buiuiiumed all tho
courage at their command to enter tho
gloomy chamber of death. Charlio quietly
and gently pushed tho door open, and Ush
ered in his cousin, Sho entered, lifted her
oyes to tho bed, but it was vacant. Then
sho looked wildly about tho room, aud
there was her worthy husband in tlio flesh
nud in life, standing, ut tho window in his
dressing-gown, grimly looking down on tho
coffin which tho two men had upon their
shoulders nt tho gate below. With n fierce
ly nngry glaio ho turned upon Ills wife. Her
widow's weeds and tho collln bhowed there
was tome moiislioiiily hlinngo thing afoot.
Ho was about to sp'ak, when his wifo ut
tered n piercing hcrciiu nud honk fainting to
tlio lloor.
The two men, heedless of tho fallen Dar.
bara, staved ut each other for a nitmicut;
Josiah, with mingled hato, contempt and
jealousy, Charlio, witli open-mouthed won.

rapidly found a possiblo explanation.
"They intend," thought he, "in my
weak nud nervous condition, to kill mo by
tho bhock of viewing my own coffin, and
tho preparations llioy havo mado for my
funeral."
Dut ho felt btroug nnd nblo Io outwit
them,
"What is tho meaning of nil this?" cx
clalmed tho iralo Josiah to tho thunder
stricken Charlie. "Who is this coffin fer
ch?"
"It's all a mistako ," began Charlie,
in n conciliatory to-io.
"Alia mistake, is it ?" roared tho infuri.
ated old man, ou whom contending passions
nnd tumultuous thoughts wero begiuuing
to tell. "All n mistako, Is it ?" repeated
he, attempting to got within striking ills
taneo of Charllo. "I bhuuld rather think
it was u mistake, that I am alive--ami

(Jharliu dodged round tho table, to cscapo
tho blow which tho fierce Josiah aimed at
him with his foot.
"It is a mistake," cried Charllo onco
more, across tho table. "Tho iiiossako "

" Out of my sight," screamed Joslnh,
now fairly demented.
Tho young man still hesitated, hoping to

stnirs and out nl tho front door. When bo
got there, ho requested tho two men to carry
tho coffin back to tho station, and afterward
adjourned with thorn to tho only hotel in
tho place, to explain and l.ingh Immoder
ately at this most amusing misunderstand
lug. Meanwhile, Josiah helped Mrs. Mciklc to
put his unconscious wlfo to bed, There
after, ho hurriedly donned his npparcl,
throw on his overcoat, nud rushed oil down
stairs,
" Where aro you going ? " Inquired Mrs.
Meiklo, who hid Bent for n doctor.
"Going? I am going to my lawyer in
Glasgow to get n divorce. I'll not Bland
tricks liko theso!" ciicd Josiah, ns ho nn
grily flung himself out nud violently slam
med the door behind him.
At tho station ho got a Herald, where ho
read t
"On tho 21st instant, hiiddculy, at L ,
in tho sixtieth year of his ago, Mr. Josiah
Dlend, much regretted."
"Much regretted! M'hm," muttered
tho old man, snceriugly. "A mouth or two
would havo seen tho two married. Oh, I
bco it nil I sco it all."
When ho arrived in town, ns ho was cross
ing Iho streets ou his way home, ho met his
old friend Mr. Maxton.
" Dear me, is that you Josiah ? You
aro ndvcrlised as dead in to-day's papers ? "
" Get out of my way, you old fool," re
plied tho reckless one, his temper in no do
grco improved by tho journey .up to town.
So saying, ho tore nlong the street, leaving
Mr. Maxton gazing after him in speechless
amazement.
When ho arrived nt his house, tho bcrvaut
who opened tho door neatly jumped out of
her skin with fright; but Josiah pushed
past her, aud marched into tho pallor,
where a few mnlo and femalo friends were
assembled, presumably for tho purpose of
condoling witli tho widow upon her ex.
pected return to Glasgow. They received
Josiah at first in silent astonishment ; but,
immediately afterward, witli n hearty cheer,
which was tho first thing to mako him
think an error had been made, and that
thcro was no intention to kill him with fear.
Tho blinking of hands aud tho subsequent
explanations tended to cool down his wrath,
nud ns tho fever of excitement left him, ho
began to feel liis weakness and physical
prostration returning, nnd ultimately was
compelled to accept tho situation with tho
best grace possiblo under tho circum
ttancjs. When tho telegram was bhown to him, ho
went to tho postmaster to demand an ex
pkmntiou, an apology, and compensation
for loss and damage
"Look here," said he " I was bid with
a bilious attack, and got my landlady to
send this telegram : ' Your husband is bad ;
como down at once' Ono of your operators
mado it ' dead,' nnd thereby caused a fright
ful misunderstanding. I think you will ad
mit,' baid Josiah, with studied severity of
tone, "thcro is a Tery great difference be
tween being bad and beiug dead ? "
"Yes; there is n great difference, cer
tainly," replied tho postmaster, pleasantly ;
"and I'm glad tho mistako is not tho other
way; for if you had been dead, instead of
being bad, I would not have been favored
witli this visit."
Josiah had not looked at tho error in that
light ; but not wanting to acknowledge tho
postmaster's urbanity too readily, he re
plied :
"That's all very well; but it docs not
explain ono of tho most stupid bluuderi. I
ever heard of. Tho clerk should be hoise
w hipped."
" I am exceedingly sorry tho mistake has
been mado; but, if you will bear with mo a
moment, I'll explain. Tho dlffereneo be
tweeu ' bad ' and ' dead ' is not very great in
tho telegraph alphabet it is altogether in
what is technically called spacing. Accord
ing to tho dot and dash hystoin of tclo
grnphy," continued tho postmaster, who
took paper nud pencil to illustrato it, " tho
word ' bad ' is thus writtou und spaced:
b ... a. d ..
I he word 'dead':
d .. o . a . d .,
being exactly tho snmo number of beats
or dots and dashes ; and when telegraphed
thus :
... . .. bad,
cud
.. . . ., dead,
you will observe there is, after all, only tho
dlffereneo of a dot. I nui glad, however,
that tho dot has turned out to bo in your
favor."
; 1 n" very much obliged to you," said
Josiah, "for your lucid explanation. I
pray you, however, to call tho cleik's alien,
tioutotho matter. H i I I known It might
havo been an unconscious error, instead of a
grossly careless ono I would not havo trou.
bled yon. Good nfteruoou."
Willi this explanation, Josiah was paci
fied and pleased. Ho restored Mm. Dlend,
ou tho return from tlio West Coast, to her
former position as queen of ids hoart ; but
though ho regrets his hasty violence ho has
not yet quito coiiquoro.l his aversion to
Charlio Itobinson.
