I Those two rival families repeated on ( small acale the discords of the ilon tagnes and Capr.leta. only, with doe re paid to the civilization of the times, in Head of 'pilling blood, they spilled money. Instead of dead relatives, then had been many lawsuits, long and en tangled: they went to law for spite, foi resentment, for anger: they kept at U with shut obstinate delight in litigatioi which is one of the joys of provincial life. As Uiu;J it was a question oi trifles a stream of water that had taker a wrong direction: an unruly goat thai had leaped from tbe field of one into th field of .the other; some obscure and etupid potatoes which, spreading them telves underground, had disregarded thi Lo lindanes. Upon this showered legal documents The lawytrs toiled to write in that Btyl of theirs the last relic of barbarous in v&sions: judgments were multiplied lawsuits grew complicated. The twt advocates rubbed their hands for joy and from the aspect of things were sun of transmitting, as a valuable iuheri tance, those quarrels to their sons. II'jV the enmity between Pa-juali and tin Uericca families Lad been caused coult not be clearly learned; aCirmation va ried on one and the other tide. But i was a deep and declared enmity. Being neighbors in town and in tin country they frequently met, looking askance at each other; the womei heard uiasa in two different churches; t the Dericca girls wore bine gowns tut I'asquali girls at once put on pink ones in the inunicipJ council the Pasqual were always conservative and thi Defied, naturally, radical; that whicl tie did tLe other would not do for i thousand scudi: where one went th other did not apjuar. And then gossip evil speaking, complaints, eagerness foj ecandal, malignity: in short, ail that out tit of pleasing things which take plac in provincial towns between two riva families. On the top of all this Carlo, tin eldest son of the 1'asquali, and Maria the second daughter of the Dericca thought it best to fall in love with eacl other. Love in a Ein'l town has not luucl variety. Usually it begins in chihihood continues amid games of Uindmau'i buff, is apt to manifest ilM-lf ia socia dancing j-rlies and round games and b always rauhVd by the parish priest am the mayor. Tiiefe loves are recognized mperiutended, established, registered ii the household comings and goings; pro tected by irrunibling grandfathers auf by priestly uncles; loves without nerves without tears, without tendernesses ant fancies; something extremely calm an alow the crystallization of love. Bu jirlo Pasquali liad had the incompara Me fortune to puss, once, a fortnight a' Naples, which made him look with scon tuxro provincial customs; and Maru lk-ricca at night, by feeble lamp liad wept over the hapless heroine; of Mastriani, and had envied them i: their fantastic passions; therefore foi these two was required on exceptiona love. First it was a furtive glance; t softly murmured word, yet heard witl singular perception by her who shoult hear it; a carnation pink fallen from l:alcony by reason of the wind of course a sudden pallor of his, a sudden blusi vf hers: then, by the armed intervention of a rogue of a fifteen-year-old girl wh came with a fiatiron to smooth Maria'i linen and the course of true love at th same time a note and a brief reply; i little letter, a long letter, and tinalh those voluminous epistlrs of eight or tei theets of note p-ajH-r which mark thi highest point of the folly of love. Alas! The joy of the young peoplt vas brief, and sorrow rapidly arrived V destroy it. They were seen, spied, thf Hews reached their resective papas, aiK all the thunderbolts of paternal wrath iiobittered by eleven lawsuits, Ml npoi the heads of the poor lovers. The bal cony windows were closed, the boit; were fastened cn the terrace doors, tht carnation X'inks on the bush were count ed, walks were forbidden, cr at leas! made without previous notice, the how of going to mass varied each Sunday but those two continued to love eacl other. liebuffs, exhortations, prohibitions difficulties availed only to inflame theii love. At night, in the winter, Maru arose, dressed herself, wrapiied Lerseli in a shawl, and in slippers, with batec 5reath, trembling for fear, descended the stairs to window of the first floor the young friend was in the street, lean ing against the walL So they talker lor two or three hours without caring for the cold, the rain or the loss of sleep they talked without seeing each other from a distance of Eve meters of alti tude, becoming silent at every south of a iasser, then cautiously resuming their discourse, with the continual feai that Maria's parents might arouse am find her in that aerial colloquy. But whut did it all matter to them' They had within their hearts suushiue light, springtime, courage, enthusiasm If the king had come they would noi have moved. Instead, the brother o! Maria, one night when he cor.ld no! sleep, arose from his bed and found tht door ajar, went down the stairs, heart a murrnnr, and caught his sister in tin He unceremoniously barred tbe butters ia the face of Carlo, gave Maria resounding box on the ear, and brought her to her room. Next morning the (-mail window on the first Boot was walled np. Oh, all ye faithful lovers, who grieve amid the paiusof thwarted love, imagine the despair of those two! Their letter were no longer legible, for tears blotted the words; rows of exclamation points, that looked like Prussian soldiers under arms, followed the dally imprecation? aguinst fortnne, destiny, fate and other impersonal beings incapable of resenting ti:em: a thousand fantastic plans were created and then rejected. Carlo wonld have liked to eh.pe with Maria, but his father allowed him no money, and it v ould have been difficult to put together the nine lire and fifty centesimi fur two tickets for the journey to Naples; they thonght for a moment of suicide, but found that it would not solve the diffi culty. Then, ia Use long run, their love lcjune systematic the imprecations were always the same, and they could not go to their beds without having -poured forth rqxn the faithful paper tiic fullness of their grief." in the town nothing was talked of but their unshakable love aud their torments; tuey were tbe objects of general inter est; if a Neapolitan arrived, the towns folk took him to 6ee the ruins of the tvnphitbeater, and related the ca.- of Carlo and Maria. Therefore the young people, flattered iu their amour iropre, assumed the behavior fitting to the cir cumstances Maria was always pale, with a melancholy air, never smiling, always talking to her girl friends about her joyless days, refusing to amuse her self, content to recruble in all respects j one of Mastnaui a heroines. Carlo took lonely walks, was always deeply depressed; at balls, he nevet moved out of a corner, content that they murmured around him, "Poor Jonas man; that unfortunate love affair sad dens his lifer In Society, at small fes tivities, in visits, with the unwaryicg monotony of the province, the discourse always returned, ppon tUfi subject tf tltf two lovers. Carlo and Man a Dore wim dimity the burden of their popularity. FimJIv. after 1 den't know how many years four or five, it stems to me oi this continual struggle, cf daily weep ing, of Ion?, loff !uve maintained a'.ivc by 'dissensions, the aspect of things changed. There was a worthy person there still are such who with many ef forts of eloquence persuaded the parent that bv the lawsuits they were losing property and much of it, as witness the two advocates who had grown rich at the expense of their clients; that those two young people were pining and would go into a decline because of that thwart ed love; the bouses were side by 6ide and the estates contiguous; Christ for gave, and they must forgive if they wished to find forgiveness. He said so much and so many other persons, moved br the example, interposed that the questions came to a compromise which bad as iu first chapter the marriage 1 Carlo and Maria. Here, surely, every one will suppose that the young people were greatly con soled, and will suppose truly bat my obligation as a sincere story teller con strains me to say that in their first free colloquy reigned a great embarra vment They were accustomed to see each othet at a distance by stealth; to speak from a first floor window down to the street in the darkness, disguising or smother ing their voices; they found themselves quite different, perhaps a little ridicu lous; they had no subjects of conversa tion, they were often silent, hastening in their thoughu the hour when they should quit each other. There were no more imprecations and tears to be niicgltl with the ink; they eo longer wrote to each other. Every thing was free, smooth, easy for their af fection; they were not obliged to think of subtleties by which to evade the vigi lance of their elders; they took no more pleasure in murmuring a few words in Bet-ret; they made no more daring proj ects for the future. They would be married prosaically, without obstacles, like so many other silly couples. The townsfolk no louder took thought of them; the wonder and the comments on the marriage once over, Carlo and Maria no longer awoke attention, were no longer talked about; their behavior was noted no more; they ceated to be point ed out as an example of fidelity. Now all eyes were fixed cn the eyes of the pretor, who was accused of too great partiality for the vice attorney a Si-ri-ons piece of business. The two lovers felt themselves for saken a great coolness arose between them. Carlo found that the virtues of his fiancee, those virtues which shope in her letters, were dimmed by the atmos phere of home. Maria frequently thonght that Carlo was rather commonplace in his tastes, and to that end, with a ntupid marriage, so tempestuous a love was un worthy a reader of Mastriani. A few lively remarks passed between them in regard to 'illusions contradicted by the reality, abont "mirages,' "optical de lusions' and similar pin pricks; a quar rel ensued, then two, then they became a daily occurrence. One evening Maria said with in irritated tone: "Carlo, let us leave it off." "Let us," be replied without Leaita- tioll. And the next day he set off on a jour ney for the improvement of his mind; Maria went to Nflpks, to the house of a cousin, to fish for a heroic husband. The families had a new falling out Ma- ria's father had au onenin'T made for a window which overlooked his neighbor courtyard; the latter, in order to annoy him, built a dove cote of which the doves ran about everywhere; immedi ately there was a summons, a second, third, the lawsuits beu'an asrain. ai a and this time, the advocates said, ttnilin rithnt liniw of anv compromise.

Little Hazel was out in the yard singing and her music charmed the snake, which was near by, and which held its head np as long as she sang. The girl saw the snake, but did not know what it was, afterward de scribing it as "something very pretty and tied np with rib!n.ns." When she stopped singing the snake put out its fangs, and Hazel, being fearfully fright ened, screamed. The women in the house runhed out and found her. Her face wa colorless and her limbs rigid. She was soon restored to conscious ness, when the said that the animal sprang toward her, striking her in the waist the moment she stopied sinsn'r.tr. An examination showed a red spot at her waist, but the flesh was not broken. evidently on account (4 her thick clothes. w hen asked if she could hear anv rat tling sound she said she did, and an swers to other questions made it certain that the animal was a rattlesnake. Jackson Cor. Chicaco Tribune. A a Oat rich Aaiarea African. News has iust reached I.irrri.l cJ the arrival at Sierra Leone, west Africa, or a remarkable secimen of the ostrich tribe, which the people of that colony have seen for the first time. Theostrich, which is ten feet hiirh. has r. mm fmm central Africa, and walked a distance of at least 6U0 miles to the British colony. The bird was sent bv the irre.-it fo)i;im. medan chief, Alimamy Satnadou, to Mr. Alfred L. Jones, of Liverpool, who has the coaling establishment at Sierra Leone. It came down with a caravan of the Alimamy's headmen and traders, who arrived in the British settlement with their produce, ivory, gold, etc. It is a mofct unusual rirpnmstnnr fnr an ostrich to be found in central Africa, and when it reached Sierra Leone the whole population turned out t, m it The traffic of the streets was stopped, and the governor had to send a special company of native police to escort it to u werra ieone Coaling company's premises.

Knowing the great reverence the Alt mainy has for yueen Victoria and the English peopie, it is the intention of Mr. Jones to offer the bird to her maj esty as a present f rum the great Mahota medan chief.

P1.in-n P.ma. have received word from the snierinteudent of their stock range in tbe Bear Jliver valley that more than l.ft'iO head of fat cattle have been de stroyed by the great forest fires that Lave for weeks been sweeping over that regiu. Nine hoas and four cabins were also destroyed, and three herdsmen fatally burnei. The cattle were feeding in a small valley. A strong wind suddenly blew a tea of fire down upon them. The an imals stampeded, but they ran in the wrong direction. Before the cowboys could turn the maddened animals the herd was surrounded by flames. The cattle huddled in the center of a clear ing, about a mile square in extent, and the cowboys thonght they might remain quiet and eventually escape. Showers of cinders and sparks fell upon the herd, however, and presently a steer ran amuck among its companions, goring them with iu horns and bellowing frightfully. The other animals broke and rau in all directions. ,Many of them dashed into the mid.t of the flames, where they perished in horrible agony. Others ran into the burning forest near where the cabins had stood, and paused to drink at a water hole, but the fluid was scalding hot, and the poor brutes, maddened by their intensified sufferings, viciously charged each other and every other living object in sight To save their lives the four cowboys who were within the fiery circle at tempted to force their horses through a narrow belt of blazing greasewood, the shrubs standing about two feet high. Before they bad gone ten feet the ani mals had inhaled flames and dropped to the earth, their riders being compelled to run back to their starting place. Boise City Letter. A Canine Football Champion. At the conclusion of the game between the Harborne and Handsworth football teams at Harborne. on Saturday, Mr. H. B. Lowe allowed his dog, which is a W-autif ul black and tan Australian ter rier, to play the victorious team for about a quarter of an hour. As soon as the dog was brought on to the field he seemed anxious to get at the ball, and when ail was ready and he was let loose among the team, ia a few seconds he got the bail, which was covered by a net, firmly between his teeth. He dodged the players with great agility, and when feurroundod held the ball tightly between his fore feet, and try as the players would to obtain possession their efforts were ia vain. Then seeing an opportunity, he would dash off toward the goal stumps with his two legged opponents in hot pursuit. Passing, dribbling, and long kicking did not prevent him getting the ball, and once the net was between his teeth it was futile to try by kicking or pulling to release the ball. After about a quar ter of an hour's "play," which caused the spectators much amusement, the net on the ball was torn and sport was aban doned, "neither side having scored." Birmingham Gazette.

The right to call herself the oldest woman in Brooklyn probably belongs to Mrs. Mary Sohultzing, a German, who lives in a little frame building in the rear of a tenement house on Park place, near Rochester avenue. As near as she and her descendants can figure out, she is now between 103 and 105 years of age. She lives with her youngest son, w ho is now nearly seventy -five years of age. Mrs. Schultzing was born in a village in Germany, near Berlin, but the exact year she does not remember. She has a small silver ring, given her when she was a child, and it Las engraved upon it "1790." The figures are almost illeg ible, and a word which was in front of them has been entirely rubbed out, Mrs. Schultzing was married in 1613 and came to America fifty-nine years ago.

Creek Pirate. Recent declarations of the Greek newspapers that a regular piratical or ganization still survives in some of the more out of the way parts of the Med iterranean receive a certain amount of confirmation from the confessions of two men arrested in the Pinrns on charges of piracy not long ago. The head quarters of the band is said to be Aivali, and two dozen ships are said to be en gaged in the business. The scene of their operations, it is further stated. Is the coast of Asia Minor and the islands of the Archipelago, and by means of false papers the booty is landed in Greece free of duty. CatUe stealing is the chief part of the enterprise, but it is said that vessels are also attacked. Indeed the prisoners ailmit that a very short time ago thev. in company with others, attacked a Greek vessel on the coast of Ephesns, whose crew had gone ashore for water, killed the captnin, who hud remained on board, carried off the cargo, consist ing of fifteen oxen, and sold the beasts on the high seas. The plan of the pirates was to rob outside of Greek waters, and within them to pose as honest merchants. That is w hy they Lave been able to practice their trade in security nuder the very eyes of the authorities.

James Fatter man bad a chronic affection, and the plaintiff attended him and made his charges against Fatterman for visits and medicine. Fatterman's troubles grew more serious and became very painful. The plaintiff was called to lelieve and rendered some service. Fotterman died after a day or two. The plaintiff en deavored to secure bis bill. Failing to get payment from the family, he got his bill approved by two Justices, Graham and Mardis, and then sued tbe township before 'Squire Graham. From the just ices' judgment, the township took an ap peal. There was some evidence that the plaintiff agreed to cure Fatterman or make no charge. The township conten ded that as Fatterman was not a charge on tbe township, the services could not berocovered from the township, because they were not rendered in an emergen cy. It was also shown that the plaintiff bad presented bills of different amount". Tbe amount claimed in the suit was 125.
