Miss Elton was
a tall, handsome
girl, with fea
ttires and figure
of a somewhat
brbn ou n c e d
type, a nd she
had been greats
ly admired dur
ing this, ' her
second, London
season; so that
she was perhaps entitled to speak with
a certain degree of arrogance when
threatened with the loss of a supposed
suitor. Nellie Leighton, her conS
dante, had seen many seasons wax and
wane, and had assimilated a vast and
varied stock of knowledge. She re
marked: "Of course I don't knpw whether you
-want to marry him or not. If I were
in ypiir place I should want to marry
him, because he is going to be Lord
v Falconer one of these days, and he is
rich,; besides ' being a well-conducted

whose perfidy she.waa ifow iuei&d, f
is certain that she had at no tlme'teeu
half as fond of liixn as she-was of, her
self. However, she had no notion of
allowing- -him to be snapped up from
under her very nose by a scheming lit
tle widow; so she answered composed-
iy: ' - : :;vv ; . :r,;..
"I can assure yoa of this my dear; he
shall come to our picnic on the river
next Thursday, and he shall .not throw
us over for Mrs. Martindale's afternoon

and if I don't make him retracSt his
promise to that woinan befora the even
ing is oyer, you shall have my beauti

you." ...
"Quivirrarerra" was Miss Leighton's
placid rejoinder. ' '"People are not quite
so keen about dancing with rue as they
were in days gone by, and I like? to get
to bed by three o'clock,' if possiblfej jut
I will cheerfully remain until after- sun

as you have beca doing of late. 7 j , f
Now, it so happened that, at this
same moment,. Mr. -Lionel Falconer,
sitting in the smoking-room of "his club,
was receiving equally sage counsels
from his friend Bates, who stood m
much the same relation to him as Miss
Leigh ton did to Maud Elton.
"Don't make a thundering ass of
yourself,-my dear fellow," that worlds j
ly-wise bachelor, Bates, was pleadin". 1
'1 could tell you lots of things about
Sirs. Martindale, only I don't care to
pass for a scandal monger; and, be

lasts." yotf-. -wouldn't believe-, me. All I

avoid committing yourself. In due' time
your eyes will be opened, and then you
will arise and bless me. If it would re

now, curse away; I don'tpmihd."
.Lionel "Falconer, a long-legged, taci

countenance had not altered in expres
sion during Mr. Bates' haranu, of
.which the fag end has been report e
aoove, -reirameci irom cursing h
friend. lie merely took his cigarette
out of his mouth for a moment .imd re
plied, laconically: " ;
"All right, old chap."
But he was by no means sure that it
was all right, nor was he by any means'
sure that he had not committed him
self. Infatuated upon the subject of
Mrs. Martindale's charms hje assuredly
was not; he had begun flirting with her
simply and solely because Maud Elton
had seen fit to flirt with other people.
But he had been flattered and ca joled; he
had been dexterously led on from point !
to point, ami hi3 present impression was '
that-he had gone almost, if not quite, '
too far to recede. After all! what did S
it matter? lie was oas of those' ruck- !

Lionel Falconer would not have escaped

"in a ball room; but, bs it was, the ad
vent of an impatient partner drew Mrs.
Martindale away, and very little more
passed between them than has been re
corded above.
: Descending the staircase shortly af
terwards, it was his godd or ill fortune
to overhear , fragment of a dialogue
between two ladies who had jiut on
their wraps and wre waiting for their
respective carriages.
"So I shall not have to surrender ciy
fan to you after all, you see, Nellie,"
Miss . Elton was saying. "Talk about

the least little crack of the whip, and

such a simpleton."" r I -
At tliis 'jnnctttre' tlie simpleton ad
vanced and politely offered his arm to
Miss Elton, whose mother was already
fbqekcniug to lrr from the porch. Dur
1?i the short transit across theihall he
found time to say to his companion:
"I can't thank you enough for having
delivered me from Mrs. ; Martindale; I
wanted an excuse to break with her,
and it was awfully good of you to pro
vide me with one. By the way, I shan't
be able to turn up at your picnic on

I3he withdrew her hand from his arm,
stared at him for a moment and forced
out a disconcerted laugh. -

In "The WUdertiiess llucter Theo
dore Roosevelt says that as a rule no

velt returned to his ranch and., found a
strange hunter ' staying- there, and
asked his foreman who was this new-
comer, who evidently appreciated pood 1
things and seemed inclined to make a ,
permanent stay, aecorainff to tne cus-
torn of the country.
My foreman, who had a large way of
looking at questions of foreign eth
nology and geography, responded with
indifference: - . "
"Oh, he's a kind of a Dutchman; but
he hates the other Dutch mortal.-, lie's

This seemed puzzling; but it turned

the wilderness, and in the wild coun

lead in every way. The sons of the
Germans, Irish and other European
newcomers are usually quick to claim
to be "straight United States," and to
disavow, all kinship with the fellow--countrymen
of their fathers.
Once, while with a hunter bearing a
German name, we came , by chance on
a German hunting-party from one of
the eastern cities. One of them re

COTTON AND TOBACCO.
Old-Time Prices or These Commodities la
- the South. .
' "We have before us,"" says the Rich
mond Journal of Commerce, "sales oi
two bales of cotton and two hogsheads
of tobacco sold at Norfolk, Va., June
9, 1831, by James Gordon, a life-time
commission merchant of that city. The
weights of the bales of cotton were 312
and 330 pounds. Price, 0 cents net
sales, $01.24. Weight of the two hogs
heads of '. tobacco, 1,375 and M"C
pounds. Price, $3.50 and 83.25 per 100
pounds. Net sales of .both. $08.35.
The accompanying letter says: 'I feai
you will be disappointed in the sales oi
the tobacco. I confess it seems to me
a. low price, but I assure you nothing
better can be done here.' 4 s C .'" -
"JVe are not posted as to how long
after this leaf tobacco was sold thai
Norfolk continued a tobaccomarket.
"Wonder if a treaty was ever entered
into between' Norfolk and Richmond,
that the one should sell cotton and the
other tobacco without business compe
tition. If we so conclude; the treaty
was like, that of William Penn and
the Indians, nn written f or it has been
faithfully kept to the present day.
"The tobacco farmer of the hour
may glean a ray of consolation as he
contemplates the price of tobacco in
1831 and compares it with its value "in
1893, and consoles himself with the
knowledge that our fathers received
less than present prices." -
. The BlentschikofTs.
The last representative of the famous
Russian famiy of Mentschikoff died a
short time agi is Baden Baden. The
founder of the family was Prince Alex
ander Danilovitch Mentschikoff, who
was the son of a stableman and the ap
prentice to a baker. . The boy attracted
the attention of Gen. Lefort, Who in-,
troduced him to Peter ; the' 'Great.'
Owing to his extraordinary clever
ness he obtained great Influence over
the czar and soon advanced to the
highest place in the empire. In time
he became the. most important and the
most feared man in Russia. In 1727,
however, he fejl. suddenly into dis
favor and was banished to Siberia, his
immense fortune being confiscated by
the crown. He became insane there
from brooding over his fall and losses,
and died in 1730. His son was restored
to favor, however, and the family
quickly regained its prominence. The
fortune of the last Mentschikbfi5, run
ning into the millions, will go to a dis
tant relative. Prince Sagarin. -
. - She Won Her Point.- ' '
- Nearly half a century ago a maiden
lady residing- in EoxborQugh purchased
an ax from George. Da vis,-a hardware '
dealer in Manayunk. The ax was in
constant service, and by its many trips
to tne grindstone was worn down until
t he steel blade, was no- lono-er of use.
Becently the old lady carried the "pole
or hnact of the ax to Manayunlf. to have
a new blade inserted. Meeting a friend.
he advised her to go- to Davis -store.

proprietor, and get a new .one in ex

The Theory of AntiBode Whkslt Im Sap
posed to Be Sank q th Aatretle 8m. ;
An interesting discussion hu been
going on of late concerning- a supposed
lost continent in the Antarctic sea.
Mr. H- O. Forbes, to whom the theory
of the former existence of this conti
nent is due, proposes to call it Antl
podea. He bases his belief in this
ancient-and now Kunken, land upon
thf ..existence of allied forms of wing
less birds in the Mauritius and in the
Chatham islands. ;.,-.. . t .
f i Tyv- oist- finH rft-t.
' islands forms of animate rolhr b.
continental - lands,' or to other "far-
removed islands, they are sometimes
driven to the conclusion that in former
times a land connection most hare ex
isted ' between the continents and
islands in question. , But the Idea,
though new in this particular applica
tion, is not new in itself, r -' j . ,. -
Two other supposed , lost continents
have become famous. The first is At
lantis, the story of which was known
to Plato, a land of fertility, wealth
and 'Civilization now. lying, accord ing"
to the legend, at the bottom of the At
lantic ocean.' : 1 ; hj r . -
The other lost continent is an inven
tion, or a deduction, of modern science.
It is called Lemuria, and is supposed
to have existed in ' the Indian ocean.
The islands of Mauritius, Madagascar,
Bourbon, Rodriguez,iand the Seychelles
are believed to be remnants of this lost
I contiren t still projectfriff above the
water;.. According; to tome German
- savants, man ' himself probably origi
nated in Lemuna instead of in Asia.,
; Antipodea, if it ever existed.' was
; separated from Lemuria by almost half
j the circumference of the globe, mud
' the Chatham i islands are remnants of
,u0e....UCWuuwer
Mauritius, it is argued, the flightless
birds, whose bones are found fn both
places, could not have made their way.
There ,are . other peculiarities in" the
distribution of life in the ' southern
hemisphere which, it is asserted by
some, can only be accounted for on the
supposition that such a continent as
Antipodea once rose above the Waters
of the Antarctic 6ea. - . . ; ,
A' BACHELOR GIRL'S DEEDS.

u.:'-?. Uh Old Maid.. '
About thirty years ago or more,
writes Oliver U.V Brace In Godey's,
when a young- girl In' a family had
reached the ripe and mature - age : of
twenty-five or thirty and lived until
that time unmarried, aflat in society
.went forth, after that' period she de
served the cognomen of the old maid,
and in , those days the title was ac
cepted, without reservation and- the
term:, "laid on the shelf-: -was many
times, unhappily tised. : . f r: , --:
This old-fashioned girl being simply
and i purely educated, whilst the pur--suita
of, the age, were narrow where
the ; advancements . of women were
concerned, a . responsibility in-.; life
was : needed after, the first blush of
youth-had banished. It was then that
this ripe and full-grown, woman be-,
came a- person , of ; importance In , a
family. Prom year to year the boys
and girls left the parental , roof for a
nest all their own. Whilst this clever
helper remained to be the solace and
comfort in the household and fill the
position of the useful member, she
acted her part well, with a dignity and
cheer that was unrivaled. Far and
near she was termed the Angel of
Mercy,", the saint who- was. proof
against all difficulties; the harbinger
of peace, that straightened out all the
stony paths .and . brought clear sun
shine amid the troubled waters in life
to those who were sick, , timid and sor
rowful. - For did not her.; dear, hand

marriage was on the tapisC it was she.
who : with .'skillful . fingers, plied the
needle so tastefully and steadily, and

for the marriage feast. ; ... .

Carious Admission Made by Sam Hmw

A conversation 'among a groap of
people the other day, all of whom were
of good New England families, brought
ont home curious admissions. Only one.
says the" Boston Transcript, of the par
ty could trace his descent, in the line
of mothers, farther than to the grand
mother, though several could; trace it
very much f arther in the paternal line,
and even in what they called the "ma
ternal line," which; meant,, of course,
the mother's father's family. ;-.r , S
All present could tell the maiden
name of .their mother's mother, .but
only one could tell . the maiden name
of her mother. Of course, many in
New "England among those genealog
ically 'ja.ro ful people who can tell you
the names of all their" sixteen great-gTeat-gi-aadfatljers
and grandmothers
cap do thisi but these are comparative
ly few. And those; who cannot carry
back the.' lines of mothers more than
three generations include the repre
sentatives of some of the most aristo
cratic families in New England, whose
line;ipf paternal descent is unbroken to
.the settlement and beyond.
