I can mill remember, na painfully aa
though it whs aa ailtiir of yesterday,
h- v ooonrrecv- - u a
quito tho swell event of the season. I
ual been looking forward to thin ball
with interest for h good while, be
catiHo I intended to find un opportun
ity there to e.T.;ct a reconciliation
with Alice. Such opportunities wero
nt frequent, und I knew that if I
mix.se I tuis ouu it rni'ht bu n long
tiuio before I found another, an 1 that
oliously handsome Dick Hamilton
was paying her ii proat more nttentiou
thxn I liked. Alice audi hal been close
friends ever niueo we were children,
und I had curno t.i f'-el th.it I had u
Hort of proprietorship in her. We
hid even been etixa,'ed for just
tweuty-four uour, at tho end of which
time we hal tarrele.l, for reasons
too comnlic ite.i und too iiburd to bo
intro luce 1 li. ro. 1 npeo lily rejientoJ,
however, n u I was only waitiu-,' for uu
pport.iLiiy to iuJu'-'o her to do like
wise. With this we'hty resolution on my
min 1, it :h no wonder that I felt lit
tle tremor us I started to fo dowu
h ta irn, and that I bcauned myHclf with
unusual attention in tho great pior
glis, to make sure that my nttiro was
perfect. Xot'nin embarrasses one
inure un b r trying circumst.mcLS than
tho consciousness of bein: budly
dresst-d, 1 was, I think 1 mny Hay,
well dressed. My trousers wero im
peccable, my gloves ditto, my c sat fitted
to per.'i'o:iou. my wlntu waistcoat was
as hjotles to employ a figure' which

I was very well hutiKlicd with the tren

was aw.iy tit the further tu 1, talking,
I grieved to note, with that odious
young Hamilton. 1 did not cire to
uj'iko my approach under biieh trying
Circililistauco, and bido I my ch'auce
with wint juiienca I could muster.
Finally my opportunity came, und I
lost no time in reaching her bide. Hha
giecti'd mo very kiudiy, as buo h1
ways did, in nomethin? tuo samo stylo
that hIio miQht have received a very
ol I friend of h-:r father'n. This cheer
ful, unembarrassed greeting; ulways
provoked m j beyond moisuro; but I
did my bjst to fctillo my ill-temper,
wbioa was also Komowiiit auaeil
by tho ploamu' discovery that
through homo mis inder.itmdins ho
wa.1 not eugaged for tho next danoe.
I had never noua her more radiantly
beautiful, and I could feel tho eyes oj
many envious observer turned upon
mo us wo took our places. The next
duueouud the nest wero taken, but
the third she promised to me. At
the end of thin dance, which was a
waltz, and taiton at the unmercifully
last tempo then prevalent, I remarked
.that she was tome what flushed with
tho heat, and proposed that w e should
TViutuT sa9 gneme.l what wa In
my mind or not, I cannot say. It
seemed to me that tho color grew a
sha do deeper in her lovely cheeks, bnt
that may have been duo to the heat,
or wai perhaps the effect of my own
imagination. At any rate she assented
in the most charming manner in the
tho world, and we strolled ont into
tho largo and handsome conservatory,
which was now quito deserted. It
was in this same conservatory that we
had stood and talked the evening after
wo wore engaged, and I hoped that
memories of this would affect her ns
they did me. But alas I she was evi
dently in a very far from sympathetic
(state of mind.
"I suppoxcyon mnt bo very much
engaged with your profession," she
remarked, sweetly; "we see so little
of you nowadays.'" This hal all tho
effect of premeditated satire. It had
not been n mouth since we hal
laughed merrily together at my brief
less condition, and had agreed that wo
could bo very happy together without
riches.
Wot so deeply cngngol but that I
find time to call on all who caro to
havoine," I answered, bitterly.
Indeed you nro very unkind and
unjust to Hpenk so," she replied, with
utiruflled tranquility. "It was only
lust Thursday I heard Cuclo Jack
say"
"Something very flattering, no
doubt," I broke in, angrily. "Avery
tino division f direction, indeed. I
cnioy your I'ncf.o Jack's, and yours
goes to that"
"I think we brid better go back,
now, Mr. Lang. I had supposed that
I might trust you as an old friend not
to try to annoy and ves me."
"Mr. Ling! Isco I nm getting to
bo a very old friend, indoe 1. Ho old
that I soon Hhall b quite forgotten.
You uro right. We had better go
back ; your new friend will be ex
pecting you."
"Why will yon bo so pcrvcrso and
so cruel, Robert?"
"At least I nm not cruel enough to
forget you. Ibit Unit you would ac
count n kindness, I suppose."
'Indeed, I would rather have yon
forget mo tlmu think ho unkindly of
me. I had hoped that we might al
ways be good friends."
"I think," I replied, with unpar
donable brutality, "thnt you had bet
ter invost in a lnp door. They are
much more manageable."
"You uru right," she taid, with icy
sweetness ; "au 1 the v are at least grate
ful to their friends."
Torgivo me, Alice!" I stammered;
"I did not mean to bo snch a 'brute."
"Let us forget everything but that
wo aro very good friends," she an
swerod, after a moment's pause. "And
I want to put your friendship to a sel
fish uso this very minnto."
"You know very well that I would
gladly dio for you."
"Oh, my wants are not to exorbi-Ty.U?i-''.h
answeftj lightly.
"I merely want 'your' tWice'as my
oldest and best friend, in a caso where
I csn't trust my family to judge im
partially. I think you know Mr.
Hamilton Mr. Kichurd Hamilton, 1
mean." And I fancied that she
blushed a triilo as she mentioned tho
name. I auswered with a very bad
grace that I hal tho great honor of a
distant acquaintance with tho young
gentleman in quest iou.
t "I fancied so. Now, the long and
short of tho matter is, that my people
uro very nuxious to have me marry
him ; and Aunt Mary in particular hiis
her heart set ou it."
"He seems to mo a very desirablo
parti, indoe 1," I anil, coldly. "I sup
po.so yo'.t hardly need my congratula
tions." "JIo, too, Is so silly p.i to want to
marry me," bho went on, without
scorning to iiutico my rudo spoech,

soon followed. I dimly remombor

"Thut would ba improper, I ad

a as undeniable, and sho let her heal
rest against my shoulder with u little
sigh of satisfaction.
"How absurd to think that we ever
quarrelled," I observed, presently.
"Oh, don't talk of that horrid time
any more ! I have nearly cried my
eyes out over it. Lot's just remem
ber that we have loved each other all
the while."
For a momeut thnro was silence.
"Alice!" 1 said, severely, as a sud
den thought came to me; "what were
you iutending to answer"
"That," replied Mistress Alico, se
renely, "you will never know."
"There, that dauce is finished," I
said ; "the rabble will be out here in
a moment."
"There is no hurry," she answered,
with the delightful sang froid of wo
mankind under oiroatustancos that are
trying to maaoulino nerves. " We can
see auy one who pass's the turn of

and gruesome staiu of black, .that wai

entire front.
"I-l-I'm afraid it's ink!" I said,
in quavering accents of despair.

any ink come from?" Iler voice ha!

once in a while bofore. Evidently hoi
ladyship's mood was fast losing lU
amiability, and I felt some tremors ol
fear.
I knew altogether too well whert
the iuk camo from. With an awful
certainty I looked at my once immacu
late white waistcoat; it was now a
gruesome, soppy mass of Smith's Lino

emergency was frightful. Was there
an outside exit? And then the dross
horrible! I hare known affection to

gravy spilled over n new gown. Since
that day I have refused to believe nil
stories of hair growing gray from

impossible thnt any ouo should bf

Alice lookod up from herown mined
finery and ciught tho woo-begono cx

with tho ludicronsness of tho situa
tion sho burst into a little ripplo of
laughter, in which I was obliged to

"Oh, Lr re she is," said n familial

How Emin Tasks Was Killed.
Licutouant Mohun, tho United
States Consul on tho Congo, has for
warded tho first reliable account of
tho murder of Emin Pasha. He says
that Emin, on bis li'.st expedition, bud
intended to go to tho Congo State, and
had crossed tho Congo for tho pur
pose. Ho unnounced bis arrival to
Kibouge, the Sultan of Kirundu, and
asked his permission to proceed
through his territory. Kibourge sent
a letter to Emin granting his request,
but at tho tamo time forwarded a let
ter to Saul, ono of his vasjiils, com
manding him to kill Emin. Said do
tailed four meu to carry out tho sen
tence, and they hurried to tho explor
er's camp and found him sitting in his
tent. They coolly rea 1 to him tho
letter sealing his fate. Emin replied
that his death would be terribly
avenged by tho whito men, and warned
thein not to hill him, but they paid
no attention to him. Ouo of them
seized his arms, nnother his head and
a third his legs, while tho fourth boat
out his br.aiiu. Etuin's people were
scattered nbout tho village at the time
and knew nothing of the murder, so
the murderers escaped. They were
afterward arrested, tried by court mar
tial, convicted and hnugod. It is
said that Emin had been warned of
tho malevolencoof tho Arabs, aud ex
pected sooner or latter that they
would kill him, but ii J paid no atten
tion to tho warmugf, and went on,
perhaps, intentionally and willingly
to his death. Pieavune.

Frank (Irouard, chief of Govern

derwent a di.Ticult surgical operation
at St. Joseph, Mo., in having removed
from his right bido an Indian arrow
head, which has boon emhcdod thero
,for nearly twenty years. Grouard
could not lie in lucod to take au anes
thetic. Wlieu tho 'instruments wen
placed in position he calmly lighted a
cigar aud stretched his powerful frame
upon tho operating table. Cocaiue
wus applied locally und the cutting
began. Grouard never twitched nor
moved a muscle, but puffed away at
his cigar aud chaffed the surgeon. The
arrow lay directly beueuth a large
vein in the right groin, aud au inci
sion of the veiu would have meant al
most certain death, so the operation
was a very delicate one, and the sur
geon was compelled to use his tlnger
to break tho tissues under the vein.
Still Grouard smiled and talked, and
when the dootor became provoked at
his audacity, the scout significantly
remarked that it was nothing to a man
who had had, burning splinters thrust
into his flesh, Grouard refused to
take a carriage to his house. He says
he was shot by a Sioux Indian while
fighting with Oeneral Crook, The
arrowhead is of steel, two inches long

Taking a Ion; aim, and a strong

and missed. Coolly t'.iruiug to the
private who owned tho guu, ho said:
"That's the way to shoot."
Ho again loaded tho weapon and
missed. Turuiug to tho second man
in tho ranks he remarked :
"That's tho way you shoot."
Iu this way ho contrived to miss
about fifty or sixty time?, illustrating
to each soldier his personal incapacity,

Next t'tuturi'i Population.
A well known French statistician
computes tho following ligurep, based
on present statistics, for the end of tno
of tho twentieth century. According
to his tables tho population of tho
earth at that time will bo '
Europe, 7tfJ,0"JU,00J (at present
3G4,Oi)0,0i)0).
Asia, 1,100,003,030 (at present 8J0,
000,000). America, CSj,000,00 (at present
123,500,000).
Australia, 30,000,000 (at present
5,700,000).
Africa, 200,000,000 (at present 170,.
000,000).
Thus America will be first in regard
to increase aud Europe second, wuilo
the ratio of increase will grow steadi
ly larger in America and smaller m
Europe. Tho decline of the ratio of
increase, which may be already ob
served in France, will extend in rota
tion to Germany, Italy, England, eto.
The population of tuo various coun
tries ot ths end of the next century is
