Ho had never undertaken management until after his marriage, ond In) Is indebted to licr, It is falil, for tlio Inspiration, Hp Is so modest and retiring a llttlo fellow thatniritiy orsons have wondered how ho could summon courago to propose! to n woman so much larger than himself. The matter of his proposal isthusre lated. Tho musical twain weio en routo to Hartford by rail seated sldo by side; Rosft seeming to bo unusually de prived. Parepa, a close observer, and Always sympathetic, noticing his mel ancholy, Inquired the cause. Ho an swered: "I havo been unlucky In this coun try. For sotno reason or other I havo not been able to keep my .friend In America. With tho best of feeling and Intentions, I appear to lose as rapidly as 1 mako them. I think I havo not to day n slnglo friend." "Oh, I am sure you have," respond cd she brightly. "Alasl" ho exclaimed, sighing, "I fear I have notl" "Indeed, you are mistaken, my good Carl. II you have not so regarded me heretofore, I promise you now that I will always be your friend." Rosa's boyish face kindled with do light, ho took her gloved hand; and with chivalrous instinct lifted It to hi lips. "And," she added, with a charming Ingenuousness, "I will be your wife al so, If you like." A fortnight later tl'cy wero married. Sho had long been very fond of him, and he of her, and sho knew It. But he was so sensitive and self-depreciating that sho felt that he would not reveal his affection unless ho wero liberally encouraged. Few men or women have been better partners, sentimentally or financially, than Parepa and Rosa. They gave English and Italian opera at tho Acad emy in better styles than it had ever been given, and notwithstanding the great expense to which they had gone, they realized handsomely from tho en deavor. Rosa ond his wife cleared here over t250,000. Chicago Times. Odd I'ollotvslilp. Tho annual minutes of thn Grand Lodge of tho Independent order of Odd Fellows of Pennsylvania havo been rmhliOipil in hnnlr form.

A ftrango though not a novel phase of the Indian question, Is that two pro phets have arisen, each of them In re gions far remote from the other, preach ing that tho Indians should have no further intercourse with whites and missionaries, and that though few In number, they shall again possess the land, Smohalla, the Oregon prophet, urges tho Indians to live upon no reser vation, to accept no bounty, to enter no church or school or houso of prayer, and to bo In no way lured from the habits of their forefathers. Already ho has a compact and powerful band who bcllcvo in his doctrines and try to llvo up to them, though no attempt hat been made to carry out the cxtermlna tlon of the whites, which ho also preach es. A similar pro het has arisen among the Comanches at Arizona, who tells his people that ho has had an Interview with tho Great Spirit, who said that tho Indians who wero adopting the mode of life of tho whites weto going down hill fast, as regarded popu lation, and that the Comanches would do tho same, should they too become cllvllted.
