A SOUTKE'S ROMANCE.
Hop picking wns nlivnys a khIu titnn
at Pendextor fnrnt.
Fnr nwny the KuMr-n lmze Iiuiik over
tho hills like n qiiivPritiR veil: tho blnnd
air trna full of nft, rtulitln frnifrnnco of
wild Krapos ripetiftijr In tlm "tvoods, and
tvherpvor a dead treo or rudo atono wall
afforded it n vimlnKo ground, tlio silvpry
tangles of clematis wove a lovely pnr
land, and the tnnnsoa of goldenrod and
purplo frinRed aster licld up their cltin
ters of dazzling bloom. And in the hop
field merry voices echoed from morning
until night.
Will Pendexter, walking up and down
the aisles of silver green leafngo with
bis hands behind his back, might have
reminded ono of Doaz in the ancient
Scripture story princely IJoae standing
in his harvest fields and giving a kind
glanco and pleasant word to every one.
"Isn't ho handsome?" said little Fanny
Dix to Miss Morgan, the rector's daugh
ter. Fanny was a pale little dress
maker, with an incipient cough, who
had been recommended by her doctor to
spend a fortnight in tho hopflclds, and
Miss Morgan, whose, mother had died of
consumption, picked hops every year on
principle, just ns Judge Marier's daugh
ters visited Long Branch. "And all the
handsomer since ho has turned grnyt I
do wonder why ho never married."
"Don't you know?" said Miss Morgan
sagely.
"No."
"I can tell you, then," said the rector's
daughter, who dearly loved a morsel of
genuine romance. "Because his first
love jilted him."
"As if any ono would jilt Will Pon
dexterl" said incredulous Fanny.
"Oh, but he wasn't Bquire Pendexter
then and all this happened SO years
ago," averred Miss Morgan, her flying
fingers never leaving off among the clus
ters of pale green hops. "That was bo
fore he inherited Pendexter farm. Ho
was only a poor young farmer then, with
his own living to waku, and this was a
beautiful girl who was spending the sum
mer hero. And they woro engaged and
all and the very night before tho wed
ding she ran way with an Italian, one
Count Caprivi, who was singing on tho
New York stago."
Fanny drew u long breath.
"And what became of them?" said she.
"Oh, they went to Italy, where tho
count expected to succeed to largo es
tates, and 1 suppose they are t hero now."
Fauny looked with secret awe at tho
ruddy face nnd magnificent height of
Will Pendexter as ho sauntered down
tho green aisles of waving tendrils and
tremulous leaves, and almost wondered
to hear him ask Mahala Bently about
her baby in the offhnnd, ordinnry lan
guage of everyday life, and give lame
Billy Bartlett "Good day," just as if
there bad been no Countess Caprivi in
the world.
But Fanny Dix was but a girl yet.
She did not know how 80 years will
bridge over the darkest gulf in a human
life. There is no scar that will not heal
in SO years. There is not a grave on
which grass will not grow aye, and
daisies bloom in SO years.
"1 do not know that we can take an
other hand, Simpson," said Squire Pen
dexter meditatively. "The field is crowd
ed already."
"What 1 thought, exactly, sir," said
tho overseer respectfully. "But this
'ere is a pretty young slip of a girl, with
a feeble mother dragging along on her
arm. And a man don't like to say 'no'
to inch! So I thonght I'd just speak to
you before"
"Where are they?" said tho squire,
rubbing the gold knob of hia walking
cane against his noso, and Simpson knew
that the case of the forlorn ktrangers was
safe enough.
"Mother, don't fret. Here comes the
gentleman now," said a clear, soft toned
voice, and Squire Pendexter found him
self looking into a pair of wistful, deep
blue orbs orbs that belonged to a slight,
beautiful girl dressed in faded fabric and
worn shoes, who waa loaning against
the well curb. For while Simpson had
been gone on bis errand of inquiry she
bad drawn a bucket of clear, cold water
out of the sparkling depths of the well
and given her mother a drink out of the
silver bound gourd which always hung
there.
"Sir," without a moment's hesitation,
"might 1 have a job of work in your hop
fields? We have come from the city
mother ant I tbero'i , notWwr to be
picked up tlicr". and my mother Is ait
ing, and we thotixlit the smell of tho
hops might do her good. I'lense, sir,
we'd work cheap, if only we might (deep
in tho burn anil linvo a hit uf sonietliiug
to eat bntwet'ii whiles!"
"1 don't want yon to work chenp,"
said the squire, assuming mi aspect of
unwonted grutt'ness to cover the sympa
thetic thrill in his voice. "1 never
grudged money's worth for good, honest
work. As for tho barn, my honsckeepet
can put yon up In ono of the vacant back
chambers over tho kitchen, and there s
always enongh toent at Pendexter farm.
"Pendexter farm I"
Tho woman, who had been sitting on
tho mossy cattle trough, slowly lifted
her head here nnd pushed bark her worn
snnbonnet.
"Whero nrn we, Isorn? Whither hav
we come? I knew a man named Pendex
ter once, who"
"Yes," said the squiro, who had given
a little start at the first sound of that
low contrnlto voice, "It was I, Clara
Caprivi! To think that fate should have
brought ns together ngnin iiTter nil thesf
years!"
Tho palo woman struggled to her feet
and clutched nt her daughter's slim,
strong arm.
"Lot us go. Isora," said sho. We
wo have tnado a mistako. (iivo too hit
shawl. Quick! . Let us go!"
"But, mother, why'" soothed tho girl
who scarcely ns yet ciniiprehfnded nl'.
this byplay. "Don't you heitr what the
gentleman says? Wo can Imvp work h' re
and food and shelter. Mother, sit down
again! You nre trembling all over!"
"I tell yon, child, yon don't know!"'
said Impatient Clara, possessed with a
sort of wild, unreasoning terror. "We
we must go!"
"Clara," said tho squire, he himself as
sinning the direction of affairs, "the
child is right. Let bygones be bygones
You don't suppose I would turn yon frotr.
my door?"
Clara looked into his face.
"Haveyou forgiven mo, then?" said she.
"Forgiven you? Yes, years and yean
ago. Let ns lie friends again, Clara."
For hia heart ached to see how pale
and wan she was how haggard were
her cheeks, and how like smouldering
fires the light burned in tho sunken eyes.
Sho told him all that afternoon, while
pretty Isora wns stripping tho clustered
hojie from the vines with a dozen girls at
pretty and as blooming ns herself, how
her lifo had been an aimless wreck; how
Carlo Caprivi had been no count after
all, but a nameless pretender, with nei
ther honesty nor muney; how ho had left
her with the bnby Isorn on her hands tc
shift as best Bhe might for herself, and
was killed in a gambling brawl; how she
had struggled on for years constantly
feeling herself less able to wage unequal
warfaro with tho world.
"Clara," snid tho squire, when she had
finished, "why didn't yon come to me?"
"Bi-canso I had wronged yon so deep
ly," she faltered.
"You might have known I would have
been kind, even to Capri vi's child. Well,
it doesn't matter now. You are here,
and yon must stay lu re. Do you hear
mo, Clara? Must! Bless my heart! You'll
grow strong in theso country breezes,
nnd that palo girl of yours will got color
in her face."
Bo they staid at the Pendexter farm,
and beautiful Isorn Cuprivi grow fairer
to look upon with every passing dny.
"Clara," said tho blunt squire ono day,
"that girl of yours is prettier than ever
you were.'
"I know it," said Mmo. Caprivi
And as sho sjioko tho words a pang of
jealousy struck sharply through her
heart. Yet was it not natural enough
that Squiro Pendexter should take note
of Isora's opening lovelimws?
And in her room thnt night Clara
wrestled with her own heart and con
quered it.
"Ho will marry Isora," she told her
solf. "Isora is beautiful, and ho is in
the prime of life it is as it should be
whilo I I am only a wreck, waiting on
the shore of timo for the usual billow to
como and sweep me away. God bless his
noblo heart! God bless my sweet souled
girl! And God grant that they niuy be
happy togother for many, many long and
happy years!
The squiro came to Mine. Caprivi the
next day with rather un embarrassed face,
"It iscoming." thought Clara; "I knew
it would."
"Clara," said he, "I've a question to
ask you."
She hold ont her hand with a smile.
"Ask it, then, freely," she said gra
ciously.
"Should I be making a fool of myself
if, at my age, 1 were to marry?"
"You would be doing the most proper
and natural thing in the world," Clara
answered, still smiling, although her
heart seemed to stand still within her.
"Then, by Jove, I'll risk it," said the
squire jubilantly. "Clara, will you have
me? Shall we begin our disjointed lives
over again, my girir
Mme. Caprivi grew pale, then red.
"Halloo!" said Squire Pendexter, "have
I spoken too abruptly? Have you
"No," said Clara faintly. "But-bnt
I thought it was Isora that you loved."
"Then you thought wrong," said the
squire briskly. "I have never loved any
woman but you, Clara, and I never
shall."
So they were married quiotly, and the
autumn of life shines softly over them
as the veiled sunlight hangs ita golden
baze over the picked hopfielda of Pen
dexter farm.
And poor Clara is content at lost.

EFFECT OF A FRIflHT.
A POMPADOUR THAT CAME FROM BE
ING CHASED BY A BEAR.
Kxperlimee uf nn Advetitnrniie Yiittng
Traveler Among the Mountain) of Mar
Ipnrta, C'nl. A Terrible Itnra iPnwn a
Mountain Side A ICntdt fthnt.
George F. Leidig. the proprietor of
Grant's Springs hotel, Mariposa county,
who arrived here a day or two ngo, sayg
that game of all kinds is very plentiful
in his vicinity and a few miles away in
the high mountains.
"I have known of some curious things
in reference to the varied wild game of
Mariposa," he said, "but I never knew
of a stranger thing than happened to my
son George and Stago Driver Joe Ridge
way of the Yosemite line some time
since. Oeorgo, you know, is engineer on
the Central Pacific railroad, on tho divis
ion between Wells nnd Carl in.
"Well, he and Ridgeway thought they
would go up above Glacier point and
have n look around. You know that to
get to Glacier point you must climb
about B.r.OU feet and do it all in but little
more thau a couple of miles. It's a hard
task, and when you get up there you
look sheer down, ns it were, from a bal
loon upon tho world. Before you nre
spread the waterfalls of the Merced river,
tho snow capped cones of the Sierras
and everything to miiko up a garden of
wonders. Probably in tho world there
does not exist a grander sight.
"It is within tho confines of the cele
brated Mariposa grant, to which the
dauutless explorer. Colonel John C. Fre
mont, once had a title, but which he
finally lost after much litigation. This
was for many years known ns tho home
of largo numbers of grizzlies, the most
formidable to bo found anywhere. Since
there were so many of them, not all the
hunters that have gone into thnt region
have succeeded in wiping them out.
"When Georgo and Joo had finally
succeeded In getting to the top and they
had gazod upon the panorama liefore
them, they started to tho south on a
shoulder of the mountain. They had
not proceeded far when there were in
dications of bears. Their great tracks
were visible in some places along the
trail, and they kept a sharp eye ont for
them. They thought without noticing
much that they were tho tracks of black
bears. There were somo birds, and al
together tho boys wore enjoying them
solves. "Just ns they began to descend a wind
ing knoll on tho ridgo they heard a
thrashing in the bushes as of some one
whaling them with a long club. The
two had become separated. Ridgoway
was where ho could get tho best view,
and he suddenly caught sight of a big.
grayish black object lying on n log. He
knew at once that ft wns a grizzly, and
he let fly at him.
"Whether he hit him or not was nevei
found out, but immediately there was
more thrashing and a shriek from the
bear that mado the tall pines ring. Then
there began a journey of that bear to
ward Georgo. It was rapid, for a gris
tly can run like a wild bnffalo. nn
wieldly as he looks. Ridgoway could sef
that ho had sniffed Georgo or caught a
glimpse of him through the bushes, and
be yelled to him to look out, as the griz
Ely was after him. Then ho took to hii
heels himself. Georgo had scarcely got
tho warning when the bear was almost
upon him. Ho turnod nnd flow down
tho mountain.
"It was a torriblo race. Now it would
look as though Georgo would evado the
bear.und then it would appear that there
waa no escaping his itvs. George zig
zagged over stumps, fallen trees and
through bushes, tho bear still after him,
and finally fell down a rocky declivity
where for a time he lay half dead. The
great brute had finally given up the
chase, luckily for the young man ho wac
after, und at length Ridgeway got tc
George and helped bun to stand np.
"Now, here a strange discovery was
mado. to which I call your attention
You have heard of people's hair turning
white in a night, us though a man had
lived a lifetime in a few hours.
"When George got down to my place,
his hair, which since his birth had been
flat on his head, stood up like stubble,
as though it waa waxed and combed up.
More than that it staid so for two weeki
before he could get it down to where it
was formerly.
"The terrible race he had with the beat
had caused it We all took notice of it
and talked about it during the whole
two weeks. I suppose this may seem
impossible to some, and they may not
believe it, but it is entirely true. Nothing
any of us could do during the fortnight
would make the hair stay down.
"George is as brave as anybody, but
he couldn't help knowing the awful dan
ger he was in, and when his hair rose
up the consciousness of the danger was
so great and remained so long with him
that it took this length of time for it to
get down again. Since then be is hav
ing no use for bears, especially grizzlies,
and thoea familiar with the dangerous
race be bad do not at all wonder at it"

Large Writing tuffuhlouable.
It is not the latest style to write as big
as possible, but it is the latest fad to
make the bigness bigger than any other
woman's if you possibly can.
Also, it U pschutt(not chio any longer)
to put no address on your letter, no date,
and on no account to punctuate it. It is

Georgo Francis Cobson, a spiritualist
If Muskegon, Mich., has perfected a
scheme, he thinks, by which ho hopes at
death to be nblo to provo positively to
those still in t lie initteriiil stnto that his
spirit exists. Ho went to Pittsburg a
short time ngo and obtained a largo glass
rylinder, so constructed thnt it ran be
sealed airtight quickly. In this cylinder
ho has suspended with fine copper wire
Iwo pieces of metnl so light that they
may be brought in contact with each
other by the slightest motion of air with
in the rylinder. Wires pMs-s through the
cylinder, ono being connected with a
battery and the other with a telegraphic
Instrument.
He has mado arrangements for his
friends just before the spirit leaves his
body to seal him in tho cylinder so that
bis spirit may be kept from departing.
and nt tho same time is enabled by a se
ries of systematic disturbances of the air
within the cylinder to communicate with
his friends through the telegraphic in
strument. He Is dying with consump
tion, and the public probably will not
have long to wait for the test of his ex
periment. If it should prove successful,
his friends aro pledged after three dnys
to unsenl tho cylinder' and allow tho
spirit to depart nnd then seal up and bury
the remnins. Pittsburg Di-tpntch.

St. Tereea In the I nlted Htatea.
Teresa Urrea, tho living patron saint
of the Yaqui Indians, who waa banished
from her mountain home in Mexico sev
eral months ago by order of government
authorities, the charge against her being
that she was working up a spirit of war
fare among the Indians, is making her
home at Nogales, A. T., just across the
Mexican line. Slio continues to perform
many miraculous cures by simply laying
on of hands, and thousands of ignorant
Mexicans and Indians have visited her
since she waa exiled. The people of No
gales have taken a kindly interest in the
remarkable girl, whose powers of heal
ing the sick and afflicted are mysterious.

A Century Frmu Cabot to Lodge.
Henry Caliot Lodge is the 86th man
who has been honored by the state of
Massachusetts with a scat in the Unitod
States senate since congress was organ
ized in 1789. It is an interesting coin
cidence, by the way, that the great
grandfather of Mr. Lodgo, George Cabot,
was a United States senator from Mas
sachusetts just a century ago, he having
been elected in 1791 to serve nntil 1796.
His grandson's term will expire in 1899,
so that there will be threo years in th
two centuries when the great-grand
father and the great-grandson will hav
been wearing the same toga, with a cen
tury between them. Boston Herald.
Return of an Eminent llotanlit.
Professor C. S. Sargent, the eminent
botanist and promoter of arboriculture,
has returned from a trip to Japan. It ii
pleasant to know that he regards his ex
ploration as a remarkably successful
one. He traveled nearly all over th
empire, made a very large herbarium
and brought home a number of species
of trees and shrubs, of which a consid
erable portion has never yet been brought
into cultivation. Every lover of trees,
plants and general gardening will extend
cordial welcome to the professor on hit
safe return. Meebon a Monthly.

The London chamber of arbitration
appears to be well established and work-
Ing successfully along the lines laid
down by the founders. Its proceedings
in a case heard before it two weeks ago
are described thus: "The arbitrator was
one of the ablest men in the city of Lon
don; the hearing occupied two hours:
the whole of the fees amounted to 4
guineas, and the case would certainly
have occupied four days in bearing in a
court or law."
The Cumpagnie Transatlantique has
again brought forward the question of
