FLOUNDER'S TRUE LOVE.
Alack I Alack I She Lived
Centuries Too Soon.
Throe
Mr. FlounJor was a young gentleman
of sthftic temperament. Ho was al
ways in love with some ulj-ct or other.
Sometimes it was a lady that enslaved
his aiTcctions other times a jjicturo or a
piece of sculpture; an.l yet another
time, perhaps, soma teapot of fanciful
Jesign or other piece of Jelf of rare pat
tern wouhl alorb all Lis emotional fac
ulties. At times, however, lw would get
muddled, and could not always tell who
or what h was in love with: and in this
statf ho would remain until some cir
cumTanro anwo which Pxrwwerl to him
th errnr or a'ostirdity of his situation.
He a lored tho ladiea, who petted and
cosieii him. But it never came to any
tiling. The) iris soon found ut tho
evanescent nature of his professions, and
hroko with him in time to preve nt talk.
This did not matter very much, how
ever, as he had a large and varied stock
always on hand to select froiu. And so
ho would fail in and out of love in the
most sereno way imaginable.
Mr. Flounder was five feet eight
inchb in height. Ilia shoulders were a
hit narrow and sloped beautifully; light
hair, brushed flat; large and full eyes,
which, judging friu their far-oiT look,
were capable at times of discerning ob
jects at an illimitable distance; the
delicate tracings of his eyebrows re
quired a closi- ins;H'tion to appreciate
thoroughly their beauty; nose, atiiiine;
mouth, large, with plenty of upper lip.
He wore a mustache assiduously culti
vated, but clue k and chin the latter
r-lreating gracefully wrro of virpin
smoothness. His long les-k, which was
fenced round by a very high cellar, was
just able to support a head of abnormal
proportions. Clothes neatly cut, and
se tting oiT admirably a somewhat lachry
mose expression of countenance.
Mr. Flounder's education had been
neglected. Ho knew next to nothing.
In short, he was a perfect chaos of igno
rance. His only occupation was follow
ing tho ladies and other things referred
to. This, to lie sure, was not very re
munerative, but, as he hud a clear l!(M)
a year of his own, it did not occasion
him any uneaainess.
Hut things could not go on fur ever In
this way. So Mr. Flounder thought one
evening, as ho laid down an article lie
had been reading the subji-ct was mar
riage. In it the writi-r had clearly provtsl
that it was the hotindcn duty of a man, if
ho had the means, t su-arch out for a
woman whom he could lovo lt, and
wed her, always provided that she was
willing to have him.
Mr. I'lounder had always looked ujxn
marriair in the light of a pastime.. He
now iv that it was a duty as well, and
ho entered at once into the writer's
view s. Mretching out his legs and plac
ing his fit t on the fender it was a cold
night - he lay back in his arm-chair and.
vkith t '. pamphlet across his ktii-c, gave
himself tip to relbstiou. Hut, as his
mind rt I'e :ti d nothing, he was norcly
put about as t liow he should proceed.
Just then hiseje caug'it bight of his
walking Mick standing in aomer. A
gleam of intelligence lighted up his
face, ttetting up, lui returned with tho
stick, and. reseating himself with the
cnsikisi end of tae tick ia his mouth,
felt that he was now in a position to
combat the difficulty.
The great question was now Is-fore
Lim, viz. whom should ho inarry? If
among his own female asuaintauco ho
was unable to f. nd one with whom he
could mate, then it was his duty to ex
tend his search until he came across
some ono who would suit.
Ho now proeeedisl u bring the whole
force of his mind to bear on the knotty
problem. A he slowly atid solemnly
nuckl the end of his ulick preparatory
to bringing his mind to a focun ho felt
delicious influences stealing over Lim,
while the muscles of his uc-clc relaxed,
and, with Lis Lead graoefjlly inclined
to hi. shoulder. Mr. Flounder violied
ho Soft embrace, a id. failing asleep,
passed into the land of dreams.
Tho sound of tho clock in the kail
striking nine reminded him that he had
accepted an invitation to Mrs. Ilrow
party that, t-ry eawniug. Hastily put
ting on his dress, things., ho wan soon on
tho way to his destination.': )lr: Jtrown
was famous f r collecting ll the pretty
and laLionablJ fiirls Ui Wr parties, uiid.
Mr. Flounder had ample soope in which
to exercise his discrimination. But,
being on his mettle now, he became ex
tremely fastidious, with the result that
Le returned to his lodgings with tho
conviction that Mrs. Brown waa not able
to produce a woman worthy of his love.
The next night found him at tho
theater. AYhile the audience attended to
tho performance Mr. Flounder wanned
the sea of faces about him in the hope
that he would flrkd the object of his de
sire. From his place in the pit-e.talls
he carefully scrutinized each individual
lady in the boxes. But she was not
there. Then his eyes swept the dif
ferent circles with like avail. The
dress circle absorbed the greater share
of his attention. F'eeling that he should
leave no stone unturned, his gaze soared
even to the "ginls."' in case the one
flower he sought should 1 perched so
high! But no! He then relieved the
strain on his neck by examining the
females in his iniuiediato vicinity, but
none came up to tho mark. His lovo put
in no apiioarance, and Mr. Flounder at
last let fall his eye-glass just as tho cur
tain fell on the final scene, and he re
turned to his lodgings, his future wifo
still to be discovered.
Nothing daurtsj, however, be pur
sued his search day aft' r day, but w ith
like result- He tried all the houses at
which he was an-ustonii'd to visit, but
not ono girl of his acquaintance came up
to his Meal, and ho saw that he must
only extend the search outride his own
circle, as the writer had staUsl in the
pamphlet. At the time that ho came to
this conclusion ho was seated as usual
in his arm-chair before tho fire. He had
no intention of giving up the search
without first trying every available
means in his power. He began to re
volve in his mind what plan he ought to
pursue in order to compass his ends
when he heard a timid knock at Lis
door. In response to his "come in tho
door slowly opentsl, and, to his great
surprise, he liehcld a lady, richly but
quaintly dressed, adkancing tow ard him
with a slow and graceful motion. Mr.
Flounder was quite taken aback for an
instant by this very unexpH-ted visit.
Ladies had never before yisitod him at
his lodgings. But his natural gallantry
and ease of manner returned at once.
Removing the crook from Lis mouth Le
got up, and, advancing to meet his vis
itor, courteously requested her to be
seated, placing a chair for the purpose.
As the lady sat down she slow ly lifted
her vail. expoMnij w Mr. Flounder's en
raptured gaze a fae. of such unrivaled
beauty and an expression so mournfully
sweet as deprived him of all power of
speech and motion. Fixing her beauti
ful eye on his the lady said, iu tom-s
that thrilled Lis every nerve; '-Mr.
Flounder, I am your own true love."
Then he knew not how tho lady was
gone and Mr. Flounder awoke.
lie couiU scans-ly believe that he had
bsscn dreaming. Fivery thing the party
at Mrs. Brown's, the theater, other
places and, last of all. the lo-autiful lady
hail seemed so vivid and lifelike, bore
such an impress of reality, that ho felt
almost inclines! to regard them as so
many solid facts, and not as the outcome
of an overw rought imagination.
Dream or no dream, on one point he
was certain, that he had seen his beau
tiful visitor iK'fore at some period of
his life, but when or where, and undor
what conditions, his memory failed to
answer. He was also equally certain
on another point, which was that ho
was violently in lovo with her. She
said she was his true love, and he believed
her. What greater proof could Le havo
that she was the woman he sought? As
ho picked up the pamphlet from the
floor and went to bod it was long after
midnight now he. vowed to seek herout
or ele perish in the attempt.
Full of his resolution, Mr. Flounder
rose betimes in the morning, aud after
breakfast commenced to think what
course he ouirht to pursue in Lis Inves
tigations. What if he should insert an
advertisement in tho agony column of
tho Times something like:
''If the lady w ho appeared last night
in a dreatu to Mr, Flounder, at his
lodgiugs at , w ill Conimunieate with
that gentleman, either in person or by
letter, an arrangement may le ef
fected.'' .
No, that would never do. It might
only bring all th girls down tohis bulg
ing in a lsxly. and there they would
remain, blocking up tho street until ho
gave satisfaction. He must try some
other way. Why not apply to S.-otlaud
Yard for help? I ctoct i ves were up to
that sort of thing. Worse again. Mr.
Flounder gave up that idea also. Such
a course might involve tho lady appear
ing in the Hue and fry among a lot of
others wanted," or a drawing of her,
taken from his description, night era
liellish the police newspapers, with his
own portrait alongside. The idea pave
Mr. Flounder a turn. Ho broached sev
eral other plans, but they all fell to the
ground. Finally ho came to the con
clusion that the responsibility rested
entirely with Limself. and that ho must
only priecute his inquiries in )erson.
Stupendous as the undertaking seamed,
it atTorded him the unalloyed satisfac
tion of iM-ing the sole repository of Lis
own SKcret.
Lighting a cigarette, ho sallbsi forth
to get a little fresh air Is fore com
mencing active operations Ho felt a
bit fuddiod with the unusual strain on
his mental faculties, and required an in
terval to restore them to their normal
condition. But." as he wended his way
along the streets, he could not kcp his
mind ot? his lovely visitor. She fixed
his entire attention, making Lim totally
oblivious of the noisy hum around him.
Ho did not even return tho salutes ao
corded him by many lady friends, who
passed him on foot or in carriage, but
steadily held Lis way. avoiding all ob
stacles and danger of traffic by a species
of inner consciousness. The a-cidental
knocking of his stick, however, against
some projection rousea hitn from his
reverie. Looking up, bo found himself
in front of the 'National portrait gallery.
Tho rain was commencing to fall, and.
partly to avoid it, partly because be
didn't exact. y know what to do. Mr.
Flounder eii ured tho building and wan-d'-risd
from room to room in an aimless
manner
A little knot of x-oople standing; round
no particular picture attracted his at
tention. Crossing over, Mr. Flounder
looked.
It was a painting of some. Ttna-itifu!
lady, quaintly clad "perhaps a fancy
dress ball risliime," ho thought. But il
was tho fa co wiucli a'r-orlxsl ail his
faculties. So beautifully calm, but, oh!
how sad were those diiiiio features.
There was a sutelinesa blended with
softness tiut charmed Lim. Srell
bviuil tio fiAi'-d, and. jtj Jio Ivvit-d,
strange memories drifted through his
brain. A the lady's eyes looked lown
on him with a sad, mournful expression,
her lips seemed to part as if about to
speak, and Mr. Flounder, entranced
like, waited for tho music of her words.

night once more took shape, and, slowly
unfolding on tho canvas before Lim,
merged into and became ono with the
Ixautiful lady painted thereon. Once
more there fell on tho enraptured listen
er's ear, tho words; "Mr. Flounder, I am
your true love. "
Not until the last echoes of those
thrilling notes Lad died away in Lis ears

and ho looked about him with a be
wildered air.
All tho rxsaple Lad gone away from the
picture, and were scattered about. It
was some time, however, before be re

of relief and triumph passed over his
face. He had discovered the portrait of
his true love. He was on the track at
last. He could easily find out whoso the
portrait was, and then all he had to do
was to find out her address and go and
throw himself down at her feet- A few
simple questions aud all was done. His
boaom heaved at tho thought.
Looking roun-l, ho espied an official
of tho place. Crossing over to him Mr.
Flounder asked, with bated breath,
whoso portrait that was yonder.
'Mary Queen of Scots,' was the la
conic reply.
A thrill of happiness aud pride com

"She didn't die of any thing." said tho

gravia. SIMPLIFIED BURGLARY.
That Mew Departure Mad by avn In gen
loue Cincinnati Safe-Hreaker.
Human ingenuity is more devilish
than angelic, aud is more ale rt to de
stroy than to create. It is a general
proposition that what one man may do
another can undo, it being easier some
what to mar than to make. For years
lock-smiths and safe-builders have
racked their brains and employed
their cunning to devise a safe that
should be absolutely burglar as well
as fire-proof. As the builders have
improved their etocl casings and com
binations, time-lock.3, etc.. the burglar
has bettered his tools or extended his
methods of operation and it has
been found that, given a fair show,
the burglar wiU get into any safe that
can be set against him. In recent
years a high degree of perfection in
the construction of 6afcs has been ar
rived at, and many good men put their
money confidently into the latest im
proved receptacles, convinced that no
burglar has the art to penetrate tho
chilled arcanum. But ba&'ed in one
way the expedient burglar goes ener
getically and intelligently to work in
another.
In Cincinnati the other night he
operated upon a safe that was obdurate
to tho usual methods of persuasion.
Tho safo was not to be opened with
tools, nor was there much temptation
to drill holes into it and blow it open
with powder or dynamite. The job
was to be done expeditiously and noise
lessly. Ergo, the burglar, brought to
bear tho powerful clamp in general
use in safe factories, a simple and ef
fective instrument, by the aid of which
the spindle was pulled entirely out of
the lock, the tumblers of the lock al
lowed to drop down, after which tho
safe bolts were drawn by the mere
turning of the knob. The clamp is a
heavy bar of steel bent in the form of
a half square, with a threaded hole In
the stem through which winds the
steel lever rod. At ono end of the rod
is a ball and vise that seizes upon the
knob, and when the operator vigorous
ly plies his lever and begins to unwind
the thread rod, something is found to
yield, and naturally it is the caot-iron
knob and its fastenings.
The Ciucinnrtti experiment was thor
oughly successful, and will probably
be tho signal to the fraternity through
out tho country how to argue witi a
stubborn lock. The method is simpler
and safer than the old explosive style,
and knocks into shadowy perspective
the tedious and time-consuming drill
system. Chicago Inter Ocean.

AN EXCITING HUNT.
Unexpected Aid In Exterminating
the Savago White Wolf,
A llloody Fie-ht by Klks-Desperate
ItougH-aml-Tumble Encounter lie
twecn a II outer and a
Wounded AnlmaL
The owners of the large sheep ranches
In this vicinity, says a Linkville (Ore.)
dispatch to tho Helena (Mont.) Inde
pt r.dent, have bec-n so much annoyed
iatt ly by tho depredations coinmittel
!y the white wolf in their herds that a
.Treat hunt for these daring marauders
was organized recently. Tho white
wolf of Southern Oregon is the fiercest
r.-iimal not even excepting ttju bear
to lie found in the country, and it is a
formidahie-looking beast, often attain
ing five feet in length, and nearly as
large as a yearling calf. His strength and
ferocity are remarkable, and his cour
age undaunted, for he will frequently
attack a full-grown cow. Knowing him
to bo a rather tough customer to tackle
at close quarters, the hunting party,
which consisted of half-a-doren of the
neighboring stock-owners and your cor
respondent, went thoroughly armed
against him, with hunting-knives, re
volvers and rifles. The cunning of the
animal In evading pursuit is incred
ible, and, after chafing a couple all
night, we found ourselves no nearer
i ban before, so just at daybreak a halt
A-as decided upon, and breakfast was
eaten under an immense pine, growing
ia a narrow- glen, between two rocky
crags, aln.ut a quarter of a mile or a
attic more in length, and through w hich
a little shallow stream trickled over a
pebbly bottom. We kept as quiet as
fossihle, for the tracks of diiTk-rent
ui.-:ali in the sandy banks of the
-treain showed that it was a frequent re- t
.-rt of v. ii i beast, and. sure enough, be
fore the m al was finished wo felt the
L-round legin to tremble under the
tread of an approaching band of some
large animals. Quick as thought we had
dispersed and taken up stations about two
hundred yards apart in the underbrush,
which was dense enough to conceal us
completely, and-yet admit of our get
ting a good view of the ganio. We had
scarcely time to freely breathe before
tne lower growth of trees closing tho
entrance of tno little vaio parted and
tne form of a huge elk appeared, advanc
ing proudly toward the stream we had
just left. A nobler-looking creature
than the elk found on the Pacific coast,
with his stately antlers, such as the
hunters of the Eastern States havo no
conception of, and his dainty tread and
sensitive nostrils, can not well be im
agi nod-
The fine fellow I havo spoken of ad
vanced cautiously, sniCng tho air with
tno excitement of suspicion, but ho had
already passed our most distant out
post, so, apparently thinking return
equally hazardous, ho brushed forward,
and was followed the next moment by
a herd one, two, six, ten it was im
possible to count them. But before our
rifle could bo brought to the shoulder,
a new actor appeared on the scene. A
white wolf, quite six feet in length, and
the largest the writer of this article
ever saw, came howling from the belt
of small timber already spoken of,
howling lrightfuily, and sprung oh a
fawn drinking near its mother, and
which screamed loudly as the wolf bore
it to the ground.' This seemed to be a
signal for the rest of the band to ap
pear, and they came yelping down the
jrien in pairs and threes, their blood
snot eves and gaping mouths, with
smoking, lolling tongues, proclaiming
that they wore hungry.
Inspired by the same feeling of curi
osity to see what would come of tho
wolve s during attack, every man forljoro
to interfere, and quietly watched the
combat that ensued. F'or the elks,
which had at first scarcely seemed to
comprehend tho intentiousof the wolves,
soon collected themselves, and tossing
tneir great heads, began to paw up the
earth with their fore feet, making tho
air resound with their wild and furious
lellowing. They formed a circle alout
the wolves that had crowded around tho
body of the prostrate fawn and pre
sented to them a formidable rampart
of bristling heads. This circle nar
rowed and narrowed until it completely
inclexsed tho wolves, that now rx-gan to
realizo their danger, for they left their
prey, plunging forward at a deer with
snapping jaws and snarling in a fright
ful manner that revealed their sharp,
gleaming teeth. But their ferocious on
slaught was received on tho lowered ant
lers that in turn struck at them sind sent
'liem howling back for a few moments,
but only to return again to tho attempt
to break through the bristling wall of
tneir antagonists. This performance
was repeated again and again, tho elks
Closing together nearer and nearer at
each repetition, until they finally as
sumed the oSensive altogether and le-K-an
to attack tho wolves with hoof and
horn. F"or a few minutes tho scene
was one resembling pandemonium. The
plunging and leaping of tho maddened
trapped wolves and the steady rising
and striking of tho bodies of the deer,
with howls of pain intermingled with
shrieks of rage and fearful snarling,
nivia it an occasion never to Ikj forgot
ten by any w ho was present. As ono of
tho wolves, making a desperate dash
for liberty, broke at last from the circle
and Csl down the valley, Mr. T. ,
wiio was my next neighbor in the brush,
sent a shot after him, but it was ap
parently without effect, and was
likbvvise wholly unnoticed by tho elks.
In half an Lour tho combat was
ended, and the fury of tho elks leing
appeased a3 it might well have been,
for they had killed the last one of the
wolves they withdrew, so that we could
see tho torn and blee ding bodies of tho
wolves that lay scattered alout the dead
fawn. TLo deer bej-m ;vw w oenay
their old uneasiness at our hidden pres
ence, and we, judging it was time to
have some sport in our own behalf, se nt
a volley of shot into them. Three of
thei beautiful, stately creatures fell
plunging to tho ground In the death
agony, while a fourth, a splendid buck
and tho leader of the herd, was making
a succession of ngonk'tig sprit.g to fol
low his companions that had dashed
down tho glen with the thunderingtread
of a troop of cavalry. The three fatally
wounded elks died as wt watched them,
and a couple of well-directed shots
brought down the fourth, we bound
thein and t.ho wolves to tho horses and
turned our faces homeward, feeling that
our wolf hunt on the whole might bo
conside-red successful.
Wo issued from tho glen and took to
tho open road. Wo had our attention
attracted by a low growling and moan
ing in tho underbrush to our right.
Stopping to investigate the cause of this,
we discovered a white wolf rolling over
and over on the ground, teari ng at its
shoulder, in which was a gaping, irregu
lar wound, t' irn by a glancing shot. We
dtsjided that this must be the wolf that
Mr. T had lired at as it broke away
from tho eiks. and that his bhot must
havo taken effect after all. At any rat"
Mr. T claimed tho wolf as Lis, and.
drawing Lis lor.g hunting-knife, walked
up to it, and, suopiug down, was about
to fluSli tii'j animal by cutting its
throat. But tho creature, though weak
ened and exhausted by 111" loss of blood,
a;.'.,eared maaae-tied by the pain, and as
Mi". T lient over it sprung at his
f;.ce. Mr. T tLrow up his arm, aud
the teeth of the woi f nea rl y me t i n it,
jerking him, from the suddenness of tho
attack, from his stooping posture, so
that ho fell forward on the
body of tho wolf. Tho two rolled over
and ove r on the ground, Mr. T try
ing to disengage his arm and get at his
knife which had fallen from Lis grasp as
Le fell, and the animal, in an agong of
pain, grasping tho arm desperately and
holding it in his vise-like jaws. The
rest of tho party were afraid to fire for
fear of hitting the gentleman, but Ma
jor C and your correspondent, watch
ing every favorabieopportunit y, plunged
their knives into the animal's every
presenting part, until at last, nearly
hewed to pieces, tho wolf, with ono
final plunge, fell over dead. Mr. T
was by this time insensible from pain,
and his arm hung limp in the wolf's
jaws, that were fairly locked in the flesh
and had to Ikj broken apart before they
could be disengaged. Fortunately only
the fleshy pirt of tho arm had been
caught, the bono ese-aping; and, though
tho wound was a severe and painful one,
there was no danger from it. The skin
of the wolf a inasnifivent ou n.w
adorns his hall, and, no doubt, never
fails to remind him of his singular and
most dangerous adventure.
STAMP SIGNATURES.
Why No Firm or I'eraon Can Kccojrnlze
1'lieiti with Safety.
All business men should take warning
against stamped signatures frvtu the
huge swindle perpetrated not long ago
on tho Indiana insane asylum officials,
by some forger who passed a large num
ber of checks on the me-rcLants of that
city. It is supposed that the. stamp of
that institution was counterfeited and
that all the checks have originated from
the same person. The checks were mad"
payable to different persons and were
cashed by merchants w ho sold the beare r
a small bill of goods and paid the re
mainder of the check in cash. Every
bank in tho city but one received the
bogus checks on deposit from customers.
There Is no clow to the forger, lie did
his work speedily, secured a lare
amount of money from tho guileless
merchants of the Iloosie-r metropolis and
left f or another ficid of labor before his
forgeries had Wn discovered. It is -s-timate-d
that the losses from this one
stamp will amount to many thousands of
dollars.
All businessmen or organizations, who
acknowledge tho genuineness of a
stamped signature by tiding it in the
transaction of business, are just as liable
for lim full liiriount tf a check or note
stamped by that signature as they would
bo if tho signature had been wiit.cn by
their own hands. Tho I'ni'.od" Stavs
Government will not accept, a s.u;n. -ii
signature from any bank or Government
official. The stamped signature has
colli1; to be quite ge-nerally rec.jgtiizvd ii
business circles, but it is a source of dis
aster that stiould be speedily abolished.
Courts would cen-.iuiy hold thut if a
stamp w as acknowledged as a genuine
si. 'nature by any r-on or firm, that
person or 1? .-in is resjw.nsiblo for tho
stamped signature when a chock or not"
stamped therewith is in the hands of an
innocent party. It is only another feat
ure of the "innocent purchaser' decis
ion of the court. It is a fruitful Held
for skillful formers, and tho burden of
proof would le on the owner of the orig
inal stamp to prove that tho stamp
which deceived the merchant, bank
cashier or other person w as a forgery.
Any person who can gain ace-f-.ss to
your stamp can very easily place you in
trouble. No person or firm can recog
nize a stamp-d signature with safety.
