the admiration 1 elicited, and the e¢jac-
ulations of surprise and commendation
thet greeted my first appearance before
the worid of fashion.
“Every sweet has its bitter,” and 1
regret to say that my seif-complacency
was ruffled in some degree by the envy
of my associates and the spiteful remarks
I was forced to hear.
“The very thing to catch the eye of a
sporting blackleg, or some brainless
swell,” whispered an insignificant
“Soft felt ” ton smart-looking “Derby,”
while a pe “Nobby” remarked,
with a leer, “ All's not gold that glit-
ters.” Dissgreeable words like these |
eonfess caused some misgivings in rei-
arerce to my fulure, but { was not fated
to remain long in suspense, for notwith-
standing the high price set upon me,
only a few days elapsed when an exceed-
ingly aristocratic-iooking, venerable
gent.eman entered the store and re-
quested the obsequious clerk to permit
Liim to inspect the elegant beaver, at the
same moment indicating my proud self
by a motion of his gold-headed cane.
After & minute examinstion of my
proportions he approached a mirror
opposite, and, placing me npon his head,
1 saw instantly by the smile of intense
satisfaction which illumined his benev-
olent countenance that my destiny was
sealed.
Very soon after I was incased in a
handsome box and sent to the almost
palatial residence of the retired mer.

several flights of stairs and deposited in

dressing-room of my purchaser,

much of the vanity of indies, snd thought

solely to the female sex; but judge of
my surprise when suddenly [ was
roused from darkness and silence by the |
flash of gas jets and the voice of my new
master, as be drew me from my snug
resting-place and, balancing me above
his brow, surveyed the effect produced
in the immense glass that reflected the
full length of his tall, commanding
form.

“Sia ply,” returned the workman, |
“ because you put paper in the inside.”
“Paper I” echoed the merchant. |
“Paper, did you say? You mistake—"
The hatter with some difficulty ran

The tiny birds were not at ali timor-

about anxiously when their lowers were

Brigham Young and His Family,
A reporter for the Si. Lovis Hepub-
lican has haa a talk with a daughter of
the Iate Brigham Young, the Mormon
leader, who is now a Mrs. W. T. Harris
Mrs. Harris has been away from Mor-
monism for some time. She tells of the
prophet’s family-life as follows:
She said that of the forty-seven chil-
dren, each and every one were splendid
specimens of physical health and |
strength. There was not
a weak or |
possessed of a good amount of intelii-
gence, She spoke in a very admiring
way of her brothers; told how one was
graduated with high honors from West
Point, two fiom the Troy (N. Y.) col |
lege, and of another who attended the
Naval institute at Annapolis.
“How did we live together in that |
question; **why, most happily.”
** Nineteen wives aud forty-seven chil-
{dren in one house, and no quarreling?”
{the reporter said, in a.tonishment
{ “* How in the world did you get along so
| weil together?”
| “My father's ruling hand, I think, |
| hud a good deal to do with it.”
“‘ In what way
on He taught us io love one another.
i Every morning wives and children met
{ in the parlor, where we had prayers and
| singing. People have often asked me
el
iildren and wives, but 1 can tell you,
| knew it, and found out where Le or she
i was.”
| “And did you really all live in one
| family?’
* Yes, all.
Our house was like a great
{ hotel, and
we were the guests. Om
{ lather was a great manager, and very
| practical in superintending his household
| uffairs. :
| and, without instructions, but by a sort
| of understanding, kept it. Our
opened into a large hall, like the one in
wanted snything from sisters, brothers,
| or wives, we went into this room or
that at will.”
** And you never quarreled with each
other, or had any trouble in the house?”
* Never; but hold, Yes, we did have
trouble. It came with Amelia, my
father's seventeenth wife. She was
from the East, and married father for
his name and wealth, She was a high-
strung woman, and should have stayed
in the East. My father thought a great
deal of her, so much that he built her
what was afterward called Amelia cas-
tle.”

husband of the lady who wears the

A “Naval Demonstration.”
By the treaty of Berli+, the suitan of
Turkey was required to give up a small
portion of his territory that lies on the
borders of the little mountain princi-
pality of Montenegro to the raler of that
coun'ry. But months, then
elapsed, and the sultan failed in this re
quirement of the treaty.
‘urks, who occupied the territory, re-
sisted their transfer Montenegro,
Armed jemselves, and prepared to con
test the matter to the end.
When Mr. Gladstone became prime
minister of England, however, he re
| solved that the sultans delay should
end. and that he should be compelled to
| carry out the obligations which required
| him to make the cession to Montenegro. |
! He persuaded the other greal powers to
| join him in this purpose, and their en- |
| voys all pressed the sultan to yield to |
their united demands. Then the sultan
| said that he would give up, not the ter-
| ritory that had been named, but the
| seaport town of Dulcigno to the Prince |
! of Montenegro. This proposition was
accepted by that prince and by the great
i pow TS.
But the Albanians resisted also the
giving up of Duleigno, and the sultan
{ geclared tha. he could not compel them
to lay down their arms. Then the |
powers, under the lead of England, re- |
solved to make what they calied a
“paval demonstration” ia Turkish |
waters. Accordingly, fleets under the |

| and sailed to the Adriatic. These com-
| bined squadrons were unde: the com-
{ mand of the English admiral Seymour.
| They anchored in a bay called Gravosa,
| very near Dalcigno; and Admiral
| Seymour then called upon the prince ol
Montencgro to take possession of the
town with his troops. But this, the
prince declared, he was unable to do

diers: and he asked that the fleets should
giist him by themseives opening hr
upon the town. This, how 'ver,the French
ships refused to do; and as the powers
desired above all things to remain
united, it was decided that the only part
the fleet conid take was to ride at an-
chorage und look on while the Mon
tenegrins attacked the town, and took it
if they could
The sultan now said that if the fleets
would go away, and not seem to be
threstening him, Dulcigno should be
given up. Bat the powers knew toc

were good for. They were nol woitl

So the fleete remained, and the prince
of Montenegro prepared to try to capture
the town; while the fiery Albanians
still remained fortified and defiant
wichin its walls. Au last, however, the
sultan yielded, and agreed to give up
the town: and thus the ‘ ‘naval demon-
stration,” without firing a gun, or per-
formine s hostile action, succeeded in
its purpose.
Other serious ;matters, however, con-
nected with the Eastern question ree
main to be settled. Turkey must stil:
be forced to grant some territory to the
(Greeks; and we may be sure that Mr
Glndstone, who is an ardent champios
of Greece, will be very much in earnest
when the Greek frontier comes to be
decided.
Soon or late the sultan must make up
his mind to satisfy these Greek de-
mands; but it may be that another and
more violent * naval demonstration”
will be brought to bear upon hin, be
fore he will yield to what must be t«
him a very bitier necessity.~ Youth's

and princes helped to beautify and
adorn. It was founded by Ibu-l-Ahmar,
the first great ruler of Gransda, upon
the site where a palace and fortress had
always stood; but the new building
was intended to outrival in extent and
magnificence anything erected in Spain
or in the East His treasures and those
of his successors were freely expended
upon the great work. One of these em-
ployed such vast resources for the pur-
pose that he was commonly supposed
to be an alchemist, who relied upon the
occult sciences to supply himself with
silver and gold.
Under such continuous and extraor-
dinary efforts the Alhambra became a
marve: of splendor. Its architecture is
said to belong to the third Moorish
period, one ot decadence compared to
the times which produced the mosque
of Cordova; but if the Alhambra misses
the massive simplicity and singleness of

the two earlier periods, it possesses in
its ornate picture queness, in the deli-
cacy and wealth of its decoration,

only reproved him for his audseily in
contradicting a “par” put in on excellent
wthority. Mr. Gason took the train
for Dublin, and, presenting ai-eselt in
the editorial sanctum, d
na a correction of the statement that
Lie had been burbarously murdered. The
editor, with a beautiful faith in h's cor-
respondent which must excite admira-
tion. refused to be hoaxed by a “pretend-

that gentleman's solicitor sent a letter

editor knocked under.
Triple Tradegy.
The suicide of Robert Low at West
Albany, Minn., was the upshot of a
jong strug: le between good and bad na-
ture in the man. He was from his boy
hood of a peculiarly morose and vindie-
tive disposition. As a man, he guar-
reled and fought with his neighbors,
was cruel to dumb animals, and oecame
an ohject of general aversion. The comt
munity was astonished when Mrs. Gray,
an amiable and pious widow, consented
to become his wite. She was strongly
advised against the wr but she was
certain that Low loved ier sincerely,
and believed that she could reform him.
For a while after the marriage Le was a
different man, and it was thought that
his wife's influence was po
enough to keep him in good behavior.
But at length he fell back into his old
ways of violence. She parted from him,
and began proceedings for divorce He
went to her residence, and begged her to
give him another trial. He protest:d
that Lie wanted to be a kind husuaad,
and felt sure that he could conquer his
temper. She repulsed him deci-
sively. He had struck her and her
son, and she considered him incorrigi-
ble. Thereupon he shot her through
se heart, killed the son and then him-
self.
The Montenegrin.
The Montenegrins have castoms that
might teach civilized nations a lesson.
I'bey never go to law. Lawsuits, costs,
fines, damages, fees, replevins, mort-
gages, appenis, decisions, ete. are un-
known to these simple children of
nature. If a Montenegrin has a dispute
with a neighbor about a piece of land,
do they hire surveyors, and then go to
court about it? Motthey. They quietly
ard peaceably take their rifles, and a
couple of swords like scythe-biades, and
have a friendly discussion about the
matter on the edge of a cliff half a mile
or so high. One gets cleft down into
his boots, and the other, or perhaps
both, tumble down the half-mile, and
the whole is forever
Yet so-called civilized people would
haggle years and years about the thiz
