THE GOVERNESS.
The train shot out of eight In the
blackness of the night', a pensll of light
from thenturion lamp, shimmering npon
the wet platform, dimly outlined the
Oguro of a yonng girl clad In a water
proof. A carriage drove up, with tho
curtains closely drawn, and a lond bnt
not nnploasant voice called ont'
"This way. please."
A drive over a rough road brought
them to a commodious residence, sur
rounded by grounds ample enough for a
park. As it was late she was shown at
onco to a room
Bho arose early tho next morning,
nwakened by the brightness of the nt
moephere and tho sweet singing of tho
birds.
She had given her name as Kato (Jon
over, and had como to accept tho posi
tion of governess in the family.
Presently the lady of the honeo
knocked and entered the room. Evi
dently sbo was much pleased with tho
now arrival, for her eyes rested npon a
sweet, frank faco, a graceful, compact
form and an nttiro as neat as It was
sensible.
"1 hardly expected to Und you so
yormg," Mrs. Cameron said.
Nor asked Miss Uonovcr. "still
yon will find mo proficient."
Oh, to bo Bare," Airs. Cameron hur
riedly said "Pleaso walk down to
breakfast."
The breakfast room reached, tho said:
"Hiss Conover Brico Rutherford, my
nephow."
Tho namo startled tho yonng lady so
much that her self possession almost
failed her. She bowed in recognition of
the introduction, and then turned her
attention to the two children who were
to be under her charge.
During tho moming moal she cast sev
eral lartlve glances at unco Kulher-
ford, not qulto sure whether ho was tho
man who had driven her from tho sta
tion or not. De was reticent then he
seemed to be reticent now. lie was
young, handsomo, refined, with per
haps rather an cxaltod opinion or mm
self.
It was not remarkable that during tho
Bummer ho began to take considerable
intercut in tho protty Utile govornca.
lie was thrown almost daily in her so
ciety, and her frankness was especially
charming to him, because ho was not
much disposed to be frank himself.
His interest at last assumed a mora
fervent shape, and finally led him to
make a declaration of love. A look of
triumph crossed her face but it cucaped
his notice, for she was seated In the
shadow.
"This Isn't unexpected," she replied,
"but"
Brico Uuthorford frowned at tho re
mark and waited for her to conclude it.
"You see. you don't know anything
about tne, she saki, starting in afresh.
"Oh, but 1 flatter myself I do," was
his reply. "1 never act without proper
consideration.
"I mean as to my ray antocendenta,"
Jdlss Uonover said. "As to my my
purposes
"I don't care ubour your antecedents,"
ho interrupted. "And as for your pur

Where Jh.lMl.ott'. Friend Was F.und.
On the voyage In a frigate from Alex
andria to France Napoleon said to those
who wern In his confidence:
"I am taking two very different
chances. If this vessel U captured by
the English and I am thrown into an
English prison I shall be In the eyes of
France a common deserter, a general
who left his army without authority to
do so.
"But if 1 reach Finnoe in safety, sub
duo the factions, take command of the
army and carry out my plans for the na
tion's good, I sliall win the blessings of
our fellow countrymen.
"I will not be tuken by an English
vessel. If we encounter one we will
fight as long as possible, and when the
enemy begins to board us wo must sink
the ship."
This deenersto plan was received In
silence and with evident disapproval, ex
cept by Gnspard Monge, who said, when
it appeared that no one else was going to
speak:
lea, general, you liare stated the
situation exactly. It what yon snggest
happens we must sink the ship,"
I was waiting fur this proof of friend

the plan," replied Napoleon.
Xsot long afterward an nl.tnn was
given, and every one hastened to his post
to defend the frigate against an ap
proaching English vesiel. It was soon
discovered, however, that tho vessel was
not English nor unfriendly.

There is an old npple woman who does
business on a Wall street corner who de
serves a medal for one of the best natured
dispositions in this town. Tho other day
a coal wagon, ono of the big ones drawn
by three horses hitched abreast, drove
up to her corner and slowly and olnmsi

driver swung his horses around so as to
give another team a chance to get

proved disastrous to the proprietress of
tho stand and her goods. Down she
went, while a goal share of her apples
went tumbling after her.
Luckily she was not much hurt, but
as she reclined on the pavement she saw
one of the horses add Insult to Injury by
opening a vast month and closing It npon

The Trouble With tbe Tepper.
Tho late P. T. Barnnm, being n pro
nounced joker, turned also his witty
faculty to use. When he told the Adiron
dack landlord, with great solemnity, that
ho hesitated to find fault with anything
about tho hotel when so much was agree
able, he was urged by tho landlord by
all means ti bo frank and do ro. "Well,"
said Itanium, "it is only ono thing; I
have discovered with regret that your
pepper is half peas." Tho landlord de
clared it could not be; but, on being as
sured that Bornutn knew pepper as well
as ginger, ho wrote a caustic letter to hli
grocers about sending him snch stuff.
They, knowing doubtless who the real
complainant was, wrote back that if he
would epeli "pepper he would find half

What th. Truffle Is.
The ancient Romans, at whose surnp-
tooos banquets truffles played an im
portant role, supposed that their exist
ence was one ot the material results of
thunder. More modem botaoUta have
classed it at a species of mushroom, but
it can scarcely be termed such. .To lie
exact, the trnfflo is a tuberculous fungus,
a sort of morbid extravasation of vege
table sngara analogous to oak balls or
nut galls, and doubtless originating, as
those latter, by the sting of an insect.

man's right leg was bound fatt over tho
left handle. The other bog hand? ran to
the rescue, but aside from uncovering
the barrow and delivering tho m.ui e
right leg, could not move him nn Inch
Tho danger was that more sand might
slido nnd bury its viotlm alive, for there
were already cracks In the sand visible
and one or two huge boulders which
might como down any moment. Tho
boblders had just been dlsclosiMl i v th
sand slide.
It was soon apparent that without
more nnd wiser help, the man would
certainly perish by exhaustion or b"
smothered. The neighbors wero rain d.
Among the now comers was Daniel Loe,
ot the beach who afterward sold ho had
onco seen a man buried in n well and by
common consent, as the only man who
dared to havo n plan where an error
might cost the trapped man his lifo and
perhapi) the lives of others, ho woa al
lowed to direct. First of all ho called
for a long plank. Ono was brought
from the bog, and carefully placed eotno
three or four feet nbovo the man below,
and between hun and tho sand face, nnd
across the snnd bank.
Then he ordered planks to bo bawod
tomo five feet long, and thoso to bo
placed upright ineido the horizontal
plank nnd facing in and toward tho
bank and a man to hold each plank
steady aud to stand to it It another slido
camo. Ilo then ordered short oak and
pino limbs to bo cut nnd pfit in tho Band
above Iho upright lino of planks, to
catch nnd Btop tho sand which momen
tarily was sifting down. Tho whnlo
structure was then braced at each end
by joist and plank, and servod oa a rude
sort of shield. Then, with the) mon
holding the planks, tho othors tried to
dig tho man out. His left foot nnd
lower trunk seemed held as in a vise. A
. -----ra
shovelful of sand taken out seemed in
stantly replaced by the sand sifting down
from tho hill. Hands wero then nsod
instead of shovels nnd somo stones un
der liira removed. But It was slow,
hideous work for tho strongest ncrvod.
And now camo tho crisis.
Tho rif tod earth bank abovo with" tho
pino trees on it was moving was slid
ing down. A shout nmong the men to
hold fast a Becond or two of tho terri
blo drift of earth a second shout and
tho deadly mass stood still. Tho plonk
barrier so far had saved. Bnt the man
in peril had now been somo four hours
In a situation, tho poril of which ho
know, not expecting, as ho afterword
toid "the boys," but that ho was to bo
carried homo iu n bos, and though War
ing up bravely, was vory much ex
hausted. Ho must bo released spoodlly
or perish. Of all traps, sand under such
conditions is the most relentless we ever
sot cyos upon, Every attempt of strong
men to pull tho man out rauod, A new
way was Suggested by Mr. David Ellis,
A strong rope irom ono or tno Dog
screens was brought. A stray woman's
shawl, left by somo cranberry pickor on
tho bog. was found nnd used to muuio
tho shnrpiios of the ropo against tho
mans flesh in hauling, the ropo was
fastened tight under his shoulders and
then, as God willed, with strong men
assisting nnd othors holding nt tho plank
barrier, ami tho sand mil settling down
every moment, tho man was pulled out
of his sand grave not a bono broken,
not a scratch! The place where tho man
lay four hours in deadly poril was the
next day found covered with four fVot
of sand. Cape Cod Independent
