An lnelilent Ttittt Intercstcit tlte miner, ut

There wcro nbout two lmiiili ed meii
of us nt Ilnmcslok Diggings, nnd It wi s
tho hour ot noon oh n summer's itay
when biz Jim Pavls uamc over the hilt
with hi. pnek- on his bnek and staked
out n rlnim. Ho ramo nlone, nnd that
wns why wo noticed him so particular
ly. He seemed light shy of in for
three or four days, and that is why wo
wondorcd if ho was all riphl, HIr Jim
had got a squltit at the faco of every
man In camp before he thawed out and
Ueoamo social. In a little tiifie we
found ltlm to bo a good fellow, and so
wo gradually ciuno to forget our first
suspicions. Vo were still ugreod, how
evor, that t hero was something queer
about him. Ho appeared anxious and
perturbed whenever n new arrival was
nnnonnood, nnd If a party of half a
dozen came along, Jim would go into
hiding until he had sized them Up. It
was as U ho suspeptod. somo one was
trailing him down,
There wore nil sorts of moil in tho
mining camps lu those days, nnd it was
tho rule to mind your own bnsiuow,
ik lonp a n minor ebeyod tho rules and
regulations laid down for tho govern
ment of a camp he was looked upon as
all right. What ho had been In the
pat was nothing even to his tcntmate.
There was a big shauty in the ucuter
of our vlllago which was occupied as a
storo, saloon, bank vnd general rendez
vous nfter working hours. I was in
thero ono afternoon just befoie tho
miners knocked .olf work, when u
si ranger quietly entered, Ho had como
by tho trail and alone, but no ono had
noticed him, Ho was a slim, light
weight man, and though clothed in
rough garb you oould ,-soo nt once that
ho wns not n miucr.vlle. w as sunburned
and nukctnptjbut that wns to bo ex
pected "ouTjliere. He was talking with
tjie storekeeper nil entered asking
after just such'a man us IligJlm Davis.
t-SiJljs fnce struck mo pleasantly enough,
tint l Hero wns u something lu his gray
uteres to rcmltnd you of a wounded
breast, and a something in his voico to
satUfy you 'that would bo n pitiless
enemy.
Ho went out before I did. Where ho
kept himself (or tho next hour I never

A GHOSTLY BRIDAL.
The stagecoach which ran between
Paris and Marseilles had just reached
Grenoble, when the young Bnron de
Saint Andre climbed np to tho front
seat.
Here he found a good looking fellow
of his own age, and straightway the
two became great friends. At the end
of an hour they began exchanging con
fidences af ter'the manner of youth.
The scion it noble stock was on his
way to Paris, to buy an officer's brevet,
so as to serve his country, as his ances
tors had done beforo him; the other,
who was the son of a rich tradesman,
was also bound or Paris, for the pur
pose, however, of marrying an heiress,
the daughter of an old friend of his
father.
"It is nn even thing!" cried the young
baron laughingly, "A, mere money mat
ter for each of ns. Tho little god Cnpid
has no moro concejrn In your business
than in mine!"'
? 'There you mistake," retnrnod the
other. "I have never seen Sylvia, but I
fell in love with her, once and forever,
tho first time" I laid eyes upon her por
trait. Judge for yourself."
He opened n tortoise Bhell case, and
Saint Andre exclaimed admiringly:
"What nn angel! Indeed, my dear
fellow, you aro very fortunate to have
that charming, dainty creature picked
out for you."
"I do not complain," said tho bride
groom elect, "and now I am going to
sleep, if this miserably, jolting concern
will allow me. I am cxpoctcd to break
fast at my f utmo father-in-law's as soon
as I reach Paris, nnd as I shall then bo
presented to my betrothed I want to
look as well as possible."
A' tho end of three days and two
'nights the heavy stagecoach lumbered
into the metropolis and the two travel
ers went, to tho nearest hotel and en
gagod two rooms, intending to take a
little rest, i Saint Andro had just tlirown
himself upon tho bed when ho heard
deep groans in- the next room, and on
rushing in fonnd his late companion
rolling On the floor in agonies of pain.
Tho servants were summoned, a nhvsi-
cian was brought in and tho latter de

-ipaint Andro dreaded tho benring of
Jne sad news to the family, but there
was no one else to perform theerrand,
4nd so lioset ofT( carrying Wth lilm tho
'dead youth's satchel.
When ho reached the stately mansion
tho front door flew open and two foot
men in livery came to meet him. One
relieved him of his satchel, the other
took his hat and cloak and n voice was

"Dear fellow!" cried a little, fat,

tho newcomer rapturously to his heart.

"Pardon me, sir, bnt"

rupted the other. "Look.it is 12 o'clock,

and la all impatient to meet you.1
Ho pulled tho young 'man-into the
broauaat room as no spoke, and with
out pausing an Instant added, "My wife,
Uncle Dorival, Aunt Dolnrice, here is
the son-in-law at last; Sylvia, my child,
bid hint wclcome"-r , '
"I beg pardon, sir," cried Saint Andre,
but again his host interrupted him.
"Don't tell me that j-ou wish to draw
back at tho last moment, my dear fel
low! Everything has been arranged by
my esteemed friend, your father, but if
you have any objection to urge I will
hear it later; bad news can always keep.
Now let us sit down to breakfast at once
and be merry, 8t by me,sn-in-law,
and give me your opinion of this pigeon
bisque."
The visitor was young and very hun
gry, having fasted since midnight. The
shock of bta companion's sudden death
had unnerved him somewhat, and so for
the timo being he yielded to the force of
ctrpumatance.
"Come what will," he wild to himself,
"1 cannot bear to put a dampener upon
the joy 91 these good ple; at least
tto 'until ithey' tore; bad! .their break

He joined therefore in the generul
merriment, smiled sweetly upon blush
ing oylyta, the srtae-elect, and replied
runheaitatuigly to his uunoaed futnre
fntner-ln-iaw s inquiries.
"How Is yonr Aunt Annaude, m

Uncle Dorival, who read cyclupvdtat
and waa thought veiy kiunttd, retorted
quickly:
"And why should Uo not hate us tint
sentiments as a noblcauiu? Away with
your absurd nutious, auterl All men

The clock struck 2, and Saiut Andre
suddenly felt a pang of remorse for tha
part he was playing, as he recollected
that be had to arrange for bu friend t
burial and would be expected at the
hotel lie therefure rtwu 11 uui tuo tauli

saying solemnly:
"I will exilain. At II o'clock this

body should be removed this afternoon.
Yon see, therefore, that if I were to all
sent myself any longer it would be very
awkward." With these wonla lie, dis
appeared, leaving tho old father over
whelmed with amaicinent.
When the rest of the family linni-,1
what hod been said they decided that
tho youth wns jbking.
"110 uas iinmor," said Uncle Dorival.
"I shall concratulnlB him tlm smut tl,.

supper. '
But supper time cumo and passed, nnd
thero wns no sign of the son-in-law. ' The
family became anxious nnd alarhied,
and toward 8 o'clock they sent 11 mes
senger to the hotel to inquire for the
passenger who had arrived there by
coach that morning. The proprietor
sent back word that the gentleman
named had died nt 11 o'clock of colic,
aud that tho body had lieen taken Away
for burial in tho nfternoon. This hewn
was received with unbounded astonish
ment, and little Sylvia burst into tears
as sho declared that sho would wear
mourning as if sho wcro n widow.
"It was his ghost that came here,"
said tho girl's mother in a tone of awe,
but Undo Dorival shrugged his shoul
ders. "Do ghosts cat and drink ns lin did?'
ho asked. "That fellow was merely
somo young t-enpegraco who wanted to
play a trick on ns and get a good meal
nt the same time." Nevertheless tho
ghost story went the round of tho serv
ants' hall, nnd tho footmen Iwnsted of !
having seen a spirit in broad davliirlit.
Tho talo spread nntil it became n sub
ject or wonder lu boudoirs aud drawing
rooms, nnd the fnir young widow who
had nover been married wore a black
gown nnd veil and Bhed passionate tears
for tho affianced husband whom she had
seen but once.
Two weeks later she was wandorinrr
about tho garden ono evening, listening
sadly to tho songs of tho nightingales.
Tho stars were shining brilliantly, but
tho sight of their beauty only served to
increase her sorrow.
"Alas!" sho sighed, "if ho were but
here to stroll with me along these path
ways!" :
As sho spoko a cracking of boughs
near her made her start with ter
ror, and iu another instaut a man
broke through the flowering shrubs and
knelt at her feet. Tho 6tars wcro shin
ing to somo purpose then, for by their
light she recognized the faco for which
sho had been longing, and in a voico
which betokened mingled joy nnd dread
sho cried:
'Then you aro not dead!"
'No indoed, sweetheart." ho answered
softly; "I am alive, and I hope to live
and love you for many n long day yet."
When the two young people entered
the drawing room the family were play
ing backgammon. A look of amaze
ment greeted the appearance of Saint
Andre, aud every one being dumfound.
ea tlio young haron had no difficulty In
telling his Btory, which ho concluded bv
asking for Sylvia's hand.
'Ihe marriage took place as soon as the
proper period of mourning had elapsed,
and Aunt Dolarico wns triumphant.
"Did I not tell you he had tho bearing

UN-
Strange and Startling Structure, of the
Denliena ol the eeCrrnttire. Way
Donti Have lieen Crowded from the
Surface of the Rea.
For a century or mora naturalists havn
known a great deal concerning tho
marine organisms which dwell in tho
snauow water next tlio shoro. They
long ago learned the amazing richness
of theso littoiul forms. Tlio census of
species atnonntsnow to inoro than 100,000
distinct forms! It l, however, of late
that they have ascertnined that tho deep
er parts of the ocedn floors have nln nn
abundant and varied peopling, Tlio
greater part of. theso shore dwellers aro
exceedingly Intolerant of tho enormous
pressure of tholeepcr waters, as well a,
of tho low temperaturo and total dark
ness which exists there.
Ce'rtairf forms have, howevnf. nrnnlrcl
the ability to -withstand theso neenllnr
conditions, as generation by generation
turougn 1110 geologic ages they have
crept nwny from the renlms of fierce
combat next tho shores to tho less con
tested fields of tho open and deeper
seas.' Through all tho geologic ages
thil selection of especially prepared
groups for tho singular stations or hab
its of tho ocean depths has been going
on, with the result that those dark and
prossuro burdened regions nro now ten

by species which ever surpriso the stu
dent who is accustomed alone to tho
torms Which dwell near tho shore.
Ono of tho most strikimr features con-
nectcd with tho animals of tho deep
seas is tho frequency with which wo
nna tneir living specimens which remind
us of kinds which in former; geologic
periods dwelt in tho coastal districts of
tha oceans. It seems that many of these
ancient creatures, when they could no
longer hold their own against tho more
highly organized and developed animals
which inhabited tho favbred stations
next tho shores, shrunk away into the
deep water, and. in, that undesired part
ot ino world tound an asylum, where,
amid tho changeless environment, they
have' dwelt for ages unaltered. Thus
tho vast profounds of tho deep have be
come a sort of almshouse, whereunto
antiquated forms have retired beforo
tho overwhelming pressure which tho
newer and higher lit 0 ever imposes on
its ancestors.
From tho results of the relatively tri
fling explorations which havo yet been
mado, there seems good reason to hope
that in timo wo may win from the deep
tho nearest living representations of
many creatures which- oned occupied a
large place in tho seas",, but nowjlw-e
abandoned tho fields of morb nfcrlva co'

greatest advance. "','
In the profounder seas the Invert qbrato
life appears to havo a Urgei? kh'a're than
is secured by tho vertebrate' or bnclP
boned nnimals; yet there are a number
of fishes known in these depths, and it
seems likely that theso, tenants of the
deep may bo numbered by thousands of
species. Among the finned tefttints Of
the profounder- parts of the ocean wo
find the most startling departures fro 1
tho types with which wo are familiar 4
coastal waters. In general shape tin ;
differ little froth their kindred1 which
dwell in tho sunlit shallows.
Tho differences are largely tf the
mechanism of tho 6enses, especially of
tho eyes. These organs undergo sur
prising variations with reference to tho
enduring of the darkness of these deeps.
In certain of tho species tho eight not

every country In the world spent a quiet
Sunday with their attendants on the
circus lot in west Indianapolis.
Tfio managers go to Sunday school,
the performers recuperate, tlio canvas
men and drivers sleep, nnd In fact every
body rests except tho attendants in the
menagerie. The orang-ontang must havs
bis whiskers trimined, tho lion his toes
manicured, and tho elephant must hare
n spongo bath and his corns pared.
Tho hippopotamus pcrspiros blood dur
iilg the whole week, and unless his
rough skin Is washed on Sunday a black
crust forms and ho gets "scaly." The
American water is not so soft and free
from alkali as his native water of cen
tral Africa and his teeth get coated with
matter resembling tho sediment of a tea
kettle. On Sunday bis month must bo
pried open and his teeth cleaned and
brushed with scented tooth powder made
from the pulverized baik of a Ireo which
grows on the banks of the Luknga river
in Africa. If his teeth were not thus
preserved tboy would decay In. three
years and dyspepsia would send him to
a prematura grave in a foreign land.
The too nails of tho lion grow long nnd
sharp. Twice a year they must bo
trimmed with clippers to keep them
from' tearing each other to pieces in
their family brawls. The tlgcra and the1
bears rub against their cages so much
that soro spots break out and they must
bo healed with liniment and medicated
oils. In fact all animals must receive
treatment of some kind. As their regu
lar keepers alono understand how to
treat them, Sunday is thus n busy day.
When tho representatives of tlio city
papers visited tho menagerie they found
tho lions roaring ,and ranch excited,
Near ono of tho cages two men held
down on tho ground a cub, while Lion
Tamer Conkling with a largo pair of
nippers was clippingjte too nails, Thero
were four cubs in the cage, and ono by
ono they wero taken out of tho cage by
Conkling and their nails cut short.
Whllo this operation was going on the
lioness was crying piteously and shed
ding great tears. No human mother
could show more parental solicitude for
its offspring than tliis queen of animals.
Tho Hons in another cage 100 feet dis
tant almost chilled one's blood with
their terrible roars whilo the cubs were
undergoing tho operation.
The elephants seemed to be having the
best of the day. They wero being sponged
with soft warm water and enjoyed the
bath hugely. An old elephant had a
corn on ono of his f oro feet and ho grace
fully rested it in a stall while his at
tendant removed it with a razor. After
the lion cubs had been, attended to
Tamer Conkling entered the cage of
three huge Hons which Mr. Perley said
was the biggest cage of lions in America.
