Mp ffpe Yp + rem—— A young couple engaged to be mar- ried, were walking in the vicinity of Bristol, England, where some slight disagreement arose between them, and the young man walked hastily away. The young woman soon went in search of him, and found that he had climbed a tree, and hanged himself by his handkerchief. Nobody was near the spot, and the girl at once climbed the tree to cut her lover down, but she had no knife with her, and the only way by which she could effect her ob- ject was by biting through the knotted handkerchief. This with some diffi- culty she succeeded in doing, and the foolish boy fell to the ground insensi- ble. The young woman then succeed- ed in getting assistance, and he was taken to the Bristol Infirmary, where he is now lying in a very precarious condition. sw mri - A J 8 STAI sm - _— THE FALLEN SON.

I laid dow nto go to sleep, and the bedbugs began to gather like lunch- caters around a free ‘lay out.” 1tried to kiver up and keep away from ’em, but the pesky varmints would ketch hold of the bedclothes and pull them off from me. They didn’t think noth- ing of draggin’ me around the room if I held on. I fit em till midnight, and then looked around for some way of escape. There was a ladder reachin’ up into the loft, and I thought the best way to get away from the blood-suck- ers was to climb up thar, so I did. There wasn’t any bugs in the loft, and I laid down congratulatin® myself on my escape. Pretty quick I heard the ladder squeakin’ as if somebody was comin’ up, Bimeby I saw a bedbug raise himself up through the hole in the floor and look carefully around the loft.

Civil War Raging in the Japanese Empire—Shocks of Earthquakes. London, April 14.—Later advices have been received from Yokohomsa and Hong Kong. The civil war is raging with increased violence in the Japanese empire. The Northern party, or opponents of the Mikado, had a strong flect under the former admiral. in-chief of the Tycoon, and made their headquarters on the island of Yeeso, of which they had complete possession. They have since captured Sado Sima, an important island on the western coast of Nipohon, from which they can make incursions into the main land. Earthquakes have been felt in the Japanese islands, but up to the last date no loss of life or prorerty is re- ported and the shocks were light. From the Eternal City.
