They bad just been married in Greenwood cemetery, lirnok kn, and were i,n thru way tu Nebraska, where Mr. Huibank, ultlicjiijli a yuunj; man. is largely interested in tin; cattle business. Tiny bail never met each (ilber until Wednesday morning last, ab lhiu;;h they bad eurrespunded Cor years. At 1 1 10 fire in the Hrouklyti Theatre, a jjtxiil many yearn ao, the father and sis ter ol .i f liuibauk, uhij was then a yuunj; boy, were lost, as was also the mother and sister of Miss Sadie Kin;.', then of Slate street, in Krooklyn. Mr. Ibirbank, in willing through a relative for the pailiciilars if the death of his iiaretils, had his biter answered by Mi.-s Kill!, who, although then but twelve years of ae. occasionally wrote for her uncle, an undertaker in lirooklyn. This letter was handed to Mr. Duibank, a mere boy, to read. He wrote back to thank Miss Sadie, and a eotrc-pondeiiee indued. Mr. Hulbank's father beiD: dead, he gradually caiuu into the estate, and by frugality and care lie made it a very wealthy one, as well as going into the extensive buying of cattle, lie never forgot Miss King, who, as she developed into womanhood, had becouio very dear to him. He wrote to her la.-t October asking her if she would marry hiiu. She replied in a satisfactory manner, but suggested that, as the lirooklyn lire had been the means of their meeting, they should carry out the maniage ceremony in (in enwood cemetery, near (he monu ment that was erected by the lily of Iirookljn to the memory of the unknown dead who perished in that terrible holo caust. On Wednesday Mr. liuibauk, accom panied by Col. Montgomery (lieen. of St. Louis, an old fiiend of bis father s, fir. Foster liishop, of Cincinnati, and his sisti r, anived in lirooklyn, and bo met Miss King lor the lirst time at Inr house, on He Kalb avenue. Carriage were procured, and a minister who bad been engaged was taken up on the wav, and the parly drove out Filth avenue to the cemetery. I'nder the massive and beautifully carved gateways the happy couple went, out through the silent city of the dead, which contains the i nor inous number of li."i(!.12."i bodies, cut across by its beautiful lakes, traversed its shady avenues until they cnino face to face with the tall shaft which marks the resting spot of l.'i unknown dead who perished in that fearful lire. Tin re were eight in the party, aud the group were quickly made aware of the solemnity of the spot by the bride who said : "Harry, my mother and sister are under that stone; wo never found them." He took her baud and answered: "Aud so are mine." Colonel Kiug, who was au officer in the army during the late civil war, sii 1 : "Yen, and they are in one of the most beautiful spots this world can find for the dead. Sadie, vou have selected this spot to be married, are you ready ?" The uiiuislcr then arranged them in line, facing the monument, aud the.ceiv uiouy proceeded, not a sound marriug the rites but the twitter of the birds. After they bad been prouounced man and wife they walked up the grassy ii eliue to the shade, and the briJj aud room knelt whita the clergyman offered up a short but affecting prayer. They all returned to the city, the bride and groom going to an aunt's Mis. C. bar- num, at Yonkers, where, they remained until Thursday morning, when they left for his home in Nebraska. To a renorter who rode from New York with tbctu on the train the groom Slid: "This was no adveilising idea ol my wife's.

At last tho long agitation for woman mi lira go seems about to bear fruit. It is probable that ill one of the new States soon to be admitted possibly in two of tbeui Women will, at an early date, come into tho enjoyment and exercise of the elective franchise upon equal terms with the sterner sex. The convention ingugcd in ('ruining a constitution for the Stale to be Conned out of Washington Tcriitoryhas adopted a woman suffrage provision, and, though a similar proposition was ib feated in the North Dakota convention, jet the ques tion is left to the legislature in such a way that uo'ie majority may at any time extend the right of voting to wo men. The fust woman suffrage convention iu the I 'nited Stales was held forty-one years ano at Seneca Falls, N. Y. These early suffragists were few in number and comparatively weak in iulluence aud they had to contend with ridicule and preju dice that were almost universal, and with all the conscivative influences of society. Hut their courage never failed them. With gicat singleness of purpose they persevered in thiir agitation year by year. They overcame itidifferciice by their importunity and the persistency of their appeals, until now they are numer ous and influential, and can command a respectful bearing. Incidentally, the agitatioii has, beyond question, improved the position of Amer ican women. During the last forty years many lulu tieial changes, affecting married women anil their separate eslates, for ex ample, have laken place, and they are in most instance, directly traceable lo the advocacy of the woman suffragists. In many Slates women Vote on school ques tions, in some they are eligible for mciu bi r-hip on boards of education, and iu Kansas they bavebeiii admitted lo the municipal franchise. Professions and employments not before ncccisible have been opened lip to them, and ill a gener al way they have acquired a greater sell reli.ui e, a ivriain indepindiiice of char acter and life, and a eousciousnets of their iioliudiial rights, wbieh arc iu a measurable b glee to be regarded as re sults of the persistent discussion of the suffrage question. There are many reasons for thiuking that woman suffrage would fail to pro duce the gin d remits anticipated by its enthusiastic advueatcs. Iiut it is unde niable that the movement in favor of it is backed by considerable influence and by a sentiment that is both respectable mid intelliL'cnt. Senator Hoar, m the letter which he wrote with the view of influencing the convention iu session at Olyiupia, said that a majority of the members of the Senate of the tutted States, ns ut present constituted, favored the admission of women to the electorate. Whether this estimate is correct or not, Mr. Iloar'sstatcuicnt indicates tbegrowtb of feeling ill this direction. If, then, the experiment must be tried, it is, perhaps, prebrablo that its fust (est should be made in cue of the new States. But wherever it is made, it will be keenly watched by the rest of ibe country and its results carefully noted, and iu those results the gem ral cause of woman suf frage will in all probability be gained or lost. aslnngton .

The HoihIciTuI i:tigliitci'iiig Work ol Jacob's Won Hhlrli is Kvcn Now III Two friends of mine, a couple who had been married for twenty years, came to the conclusion that marriage was a failure for them. They agreed upou di vorce. Years before, the man had been well off, but had lost evciylhing through speculation. He took to drink and soon degenerated to a won bless burden upon the. wife, who supported tho family by taking boarders. For ten years these two had lived to gether in the came house, the estrange ment widening as the husband's folly in creased, until she could endwre it no longer. The papers were made out and the day came when he was to leave the homo he bad made so wretched. I happened to be a witness to their parting. There was no one in the house at the time but we three. She picked up his shirts and collars, which she lud that day ironed with her own hands, and he stood on the thres hold with the narjel under his arm, be sides a trunk which contained his other personal belongings. Scarce a word was spoken. Both seemed to feel that a crisis iu their lives hud come. For twenty years these (wo had been tottelher, throuuh linht and shade, in good fortune and ill, aud now they were to part forever. Twenty years before buoyant with youth and hope and confi dence in each other, these two had link ed their lives together. They had come to look alike, so potent had been the force of association. What touching memories must have surged through both of their hearts as they stood thus, she leaning against the stairway in the hall, and he standing on the doorstep with the dusky twilight closing in about liiin as if lo emphasize darkness of lulure years. The hour seemed strangely in keeping with his strange parting. there are moments so tragic in life that speech is dumbly inadequate. This was one of them. 'Have 1 got everything An nie?" he slowly said, in a dazed way. as he turned toward the door. "All but this, Frank do you want it?'' and she banded him a packet of faded letters tied with a crumpled ribbon. He turned pale as a corpse, as if not until that instant realizing all the part ing meant. He looked at the packet slowly untied the ribbon aud wound it about his baud, his whole frame trem bling violently. "Keen them Annie for nie!" he ebbed, made one convulsive step toward the woman, then turned and walked out into the ui"ht. And she? Hoiv many of the engineering works of the nineteenth century will there be iu existence in the year 0,000 ? Very few, we fear, and stilt less those that will continue in that far-off age to serve a useful purpose. Yet there is at least one great undertaking conceived anacxocuion by nn engineer which, during tho space of 1,0011 years, has never ceased ils office, on which the life of a fertile province absolutely depends In-day. We refer to the liahr.loiissnf the canal of Joseph built according to tradition, by the son of Jacob, and which constitutes not the least of the many blessings he conferrcl on Kg)pt during the years of his pros perous rule. This canal took its rise from tin: Nile at As'mt, and ran nearly parallel with it for nearly L'.IH miles, creeping along under the western cliffs of the Nile valley, with many a bend and winding, until at length it gained an eni iuence, as compared with the river bed, which enabled it to turn westward tbruugh a narrow pass and enter a dis trict which w.is otherwise shut off from tho fertilizing floods on which all vegeta tion in Kgypt depends. The northern end stood seventeen feet above low Nile, while at the southern end it was at an equal elevation with the river. Through this cut ran a perennial stream, which watered a province named the Fayoum, endowing it with fertility and supporting a large population. In the time of the annual flood a great part of the canal was under water, and then the river's current would rush in a more direct course into the pass, carrying with it the rich silt which takes the place of manure and keeps the soil in a state of constant productiveness. All this, with the exception of the tradition tint Jos -till built it, can be verified to-day, and it is not mere suppo sition or rumor. Cntil eight years ago it was fit mly believed that the design has ulwuys been limited to an irrigation scheme, larger, no doubt, than (hat now iu operation, as shown by the (races of abandoned canals and by the slow aggre gation of waste water which had accumu lated in the lliiket el Qiicruu, but still essentially (he same ill character. Many accounts have been written by Greek und Human historians, such as Herodotus, Strabo, Mutianus aud Pliny, und repeated in monkish legends or por trayed in the maps of the middle ages, which agreed with the folk lore of the district. These tales explained that the canal dug by the ancient Israelites servid to carry the surplus waters of tho Nile into an extensive lake King south of the Fayoum, and so bilge that it not only modified the climate, tempering ibe and winds of the desert and converting ibem When (ieorge came home, the wind- family was loud in her praise. She was a line inu-ici i; she had uiiening taste in at; she was charming, witty and lov able, but (ieorge soon saw that she bad won thetn uueimsciously, not by display ing lii-r own merits, but by appreciating theirs. This is a true story in fact, but the truth of its meaning is repeated wherever a woman is found who has the intangi ble quality called "charm." She may be deformed or puck inaikid, but will win friendsbin and love by bet lack of .Hi'lf-conseiousness, by her quick sympa thy with others. Many an attractive girl would save herself tuiieh anxiety and vain effort at Inr entrance into the world uf society, if she understood that it was made up i f individuals, each of whom desired to find not the beauty, wit or talent of others but the cordial recognition of their own. If you can honestly forget yourself and take an interest iu others, you will soon find yourself smrounleJ by hosts of friends; but if you dishonestly affect this interest, you will deceive no oue. Your dullest companion will recognize you as a snob and toady. DM & ENTOMBED. l.uikril In a Vault llicr Mglil Willi Seventeen Coi-tses. . . ., i , . . . . v: 1. : 1....I .1. f..n ....

The hour was about uine, and although there wire twenty persons about, none of them at first could must, r enough courage to go in, As they stood in listen ing attitudes the cries again went up. The gills were sobbing with terror, and even the young men glanced anx iously at one another and inquired in whispers, "What does it mean?" Inn moment the terrifying sounds ceased, and then they came again with renewed vigor. "Let's see what it is?" suddenly sug gested one young man. "All right," came from half dozen others. (iuided by the sound, they made their way between the graves lu a vault near the centre uf the cemetery. The vault top rises only u few inches above the ground, but there are a number of holes piercing the sides, and the investigators threw themselves prone before this. F. r a time they could sec nothing. Thin ;ine of the watchers discovered the out lines of a moving form, and another pierc ing sound rent the air. Satisfied uow that the thing within was a ghost, tin men spuing to their feet and ran like mad lor the streets. The mystery was not explained until officer Smith passed that way. Just as he reached the vault in question he no ticed the white face of a man, wbo was King ou the floor inside. He truuiptly broke iu the door, and found James N. Clarke, one of the grave diggirs, iu a half unconscious condition, leaning against the side of the vault It was some mill nt-s before he could talk. Thou he s lid : "I came into the vault yislereluy alter noon ti do some work. There arc sev enteen bodies here. As I entered, tin door closed with a bang, and I saw that I was caught. The lock is a spring lock, and opens ouly from the outside. At lirst I laughed, hut as no one cimc to my relief I soon quit that. Wh 'ii night came I was thoroughly fliihtelied. There was no fun in (he prospect of passing i whole night in a uarro v vault w't h sev enteen corpses.
