id'-a of ildinpf what sho pleaded with it.
Mk lnlcia Kaines was a raidille-
,1 scfijid cousin, who had more gen
tility than income, and who eked out
th-latter by acting in tho capacity of
httitrron and companion to tho saucy
b. ;uity, giving advice which Ethel never
took, nnd objecting on principle to every
f i.tlcnian whom Ethel fancied.
I; it one day Miss Vano entered her
rc'.itiviM presence with very rosy cheeks
and a deep sparklo in her eyes which
Jvid-x ia had never seen there before.
."Miss l'udocia," fdie said, 'I am en
p.ipe.1 to be marrietl."
"Are you ?" said Miss Eudocia, with a.
little gasp, as if sho were swallowing
ex-dor oil.
"To Mr. Harold North."
"My goodness !" cried Miss Eudocia.
"Why, it isn't three weeks sinca you
w iv first introduced to him."
"Oh, that's nothing," 6aid saucy
Jlthel. "I made up my mind that I
likrd fum in three days."
"I think you aro running a great risk,

in vt r marry a man that I didn't know
nil about."
"Is Jliat what has kept you from matri
mony all these yoars ?" said Ethel Vane,
misejiievously.
Miss lames tossed her head, nnd the
tip of her cheek-bones and the end of
her nose became a degree more roseate
than usual.
"Well," said she, "of course yon know
tour own business best; and I only hope
you will never live to regret this precipi
tancy." Hut Ethel married Harold North in
less than six weeks more.
"I never could reconcilo myself to
HiHi a rash step," said Miss Eames.
"Oh, well," said Ethel, "there seems
to lL no invasion that you should."
"You'll live to repent it," persisted
Mis Eames, waxing venomous under
the barbed sting of her pretty young
ceuin's words.
"Oh, uo; I shall not," laughed Ethel.
r.ut in spite of this war of words, tho
young prcvple. had scarcely settled elown
afWr the honeymoon, beforo Miss Eames
came to visit them, with a fearful array
ef Surutoga'trunks, bandboxes, and par
cels strapped up in brown paper. Ethel
raa to the gate to welcomo her.
"I i'm so glad you come just cow,

ing Eon, with cnirbt those myi teriously '
hal3dome faces which inspire all school
girls with the idea that t hero must be

made himself Very agreeable, and Miss
Eudocia began to relent in her opinion
ol him.. - : , . ,j
Tho next 5ay &hb- was beginning an
elaborate piece 'of worsted work in the
pink-ftnd-Eilvet drawing-room, when tho
maid knocked at the door.
"I'lease, ma am," said Phebe, in a
perturbed manner, "she will come in'
And sho won't send np her card ! And
she won't wait in the little green reception-room
formo to go up to my mis
treat ! And please, ma'am, here she is
on the stairs now !"
Thcbe," tnid Miss Eamcs, "what on
earth do you mean ?" -
At the enme minute Ethel North camo
s' flly in from an opposite door, and
found herself faced by a tall apparition
in black, with a dusty crape veil, hag
gard eyes, and hair originally black as a
raven's wing, but now thickly streaked
with filver. ,
'Ah!'' said she, as Ethel looked at
her with surprised bluo eyes, "so it's
vou , is it, that have married rav has
baud?" "Married j-our husband !"
Ethel could only gasp out the words
after her in breathless amazement.
"Yes !"' utteitkl the other woman,
with a chuckle of malicious satisfaction.
"But don't think that you are to keep
him, in spite of your blue eyes, and
yellow hair, and pretty pink cheeks. I
was pretty once, in the days that are
past. I have the first right to him, and
I mean to have him. Eve followed him
half over the world, and I've traced him
out at last. Where is he? I say, where
is he?"
Ethel looked .at Miss Euilocia, and
shrank behind her like, a frightened
deer. .
"Ho is in the city," said Miss Eudo
cia, bewildered and hesitating. "Ho
has not returned yet."
"Then here I wait until ho does re
turn," said tho woman, seating herself
upon one of the pink damask chairs.
"Yes, you may well stare at my rags; A
hut it is his fault. He can dress you,
you pitiful doll-faced thing," with a jerk
of her bead toward Ethel, "in silks and
jewels, while I am shabby and neglected.
But never mind ; we shall see what the
law says to this. A man can't have
two wives. I'll wait yes, I'll wait"
She laughed ilerisively as she spoke.
Ethel caught at Miss Eudocia's hand,
"Oh, come away !" she faltered, with
trembling voice and changing color. "I
I am afraid of that woman."
And together they took refuge in tho
library beyond, locking the door to bar
themselves effectually, from all intru
sion. "Miss Eudocia," whispered Ethel, as
pale as a ghost, "what does it mean?"
"It means, my poor -child, that yon
havo been clu atrtd and deceived !"
groaned Miss Eudocia'. "Didn't I tell
you so? Didn't 1 say you would livo
to regret your rash precipitancy ? Oh,
Ethel, I never liked that man's face ! I
always knew that there was a dark mys
tery in his life."
"What shall lI do? Oh, dear 1 what
can I do?", gasped Ethel; and Miss
Eudocia could feel that her hands were
as cold as ice.
"( Jet your tilings !" said the old maid.
"Come homo with mc 1 Leave him for
ever !"
"But I Iovo him !" wailed Ethel.
"More fool, you !" crieel Miss Eudocia,
fairly losing patience. "What! after
lie has trifled with you deceived you
blighted your whole life? Come home
w ith me, I say ! Don't let him gloat
over the ruin ho has wrought !"
But even-as Miss Eadocia pleaded
with the young wife, who sat there pale
and drooping as a broken lily, the blinds
of the open winddw back of them were
cautiously raised and a rubicund face
iX)kcd in.
"Ladies," said the owner of the rubi
cund face, in a whisper, "don't be
aUrrocd. There ain't no occasion. Bat
is sho here ?"
"Who 5" exclaimed Miss Eudocia, who
was tha first to recover her self-possession.
"Mrs. Nckes ! Escaped from the
Trivate Lunatic Aylum, three miles
down the river, this evening. Tall lady,
. in black. Talks about her husband, as
I she thinks is married to another wo-
! man !"
j "Yes," cried Ethel, springing to her
I feet "Oh, yes she is here. She Ls in
i the other room."
1 And she UUl hysterically laughing
! and sobbing, into Mm Eudocia's arms,
j "Mum's the word, then," said the man
j with the -rubicund countenance, disap
Miss ! paring from the window as miraculously
j as he appeared. '
s And presently they saw him escorting
th tall lady in black down the carriage
; drive, talking to her, as they went, in the
moit persuasive manner possible.
"Oh, yos'm," said he. "He's at
Doctor Fitching'n, waitin' for jou. He's
been there this long time, and . we
couldn't thick wliere you was gone. He's
thrown all the other wives overboard and
come book to yon. Oh, it'g all right"
. Ethel North looked at Miss Eadocia.
Miss Eadocia looked at Ethel North.
"What geese we have been 1" cried
Ethel, radiantly. - '
"But circumstances did look rather
suspicions," said Miss Eames, blankly.
"I believe youre sorry yet that you
can't say, t told you so,'" laughed
Ethel, as gleeful as a child.
"No, Em not, my dear," said Miss
Eudocia, bursting into tears.
And she really and actually meant it ;
for Miss Eudocia, old maid though she
was, had not a bad heart. Popular

With no Drop of 'egro Blood.
Tho Selma (Ala.) Times tells the fol
lowing singular story : Mr, Isaac
Frank, a white man, was indicted by the
Jast Grand Jury under the charge of
living in unlawful wedlock with a negro
woman. Mrs. Mary Ann Frank, wife of
the accused, was present ; also her
alleged mother, Lucinda Weaver, col
ored . Lucinda was sworn, and put npon
the witness-stand. . Her testimony threw
new light npon the case and caused a
little flutter of excitement and surprise
among those present. She spoke in a
straightforward manner. Notwithstand
ing Lucinda has always been known as
the mother of Mary, it turns out that
thefoung woman's parentage is purely
white. Lucinda. testified that she was
not the mother of Mrs. Mary Frank and
that Mrs. Frank Was given to her when
an infant three days old ; that a promi
nent gentleman in South Carolina brought
the young child and presented it to
Lucinda, requesting that she raise it as
her own. She stated further that the
child was the illegitimate offspring of
an aristocratic woman, and it was her
brother who gave the infant to the old
negTess to shield his sister's reputation
and conceal her sh ame. The old n egress
brought her charge to Alabama, claim
ing her as a daughter, and the real
truth of matters very probably never
would have been uncovered to the world
but for, Mary's : marriage to the white
man and the indictment issued against
him. Mrs. Frank, now grown into
mature womanhood, has light, straight
hair, a fair complexion, and clear, blue
eyes, and doesn't bear the remotest trace
of African blood. A number of gentle
men visited her recently, conversed with
her, and decided that Bhe was beyond
doubt a white woman. After Lucinda's
testimony was heard, Solicitor ; Pitts
agreed to a verdict of not guilty, and
the happy twain departetl in peace.
In the Soudan.
The recent Soudan battle, in many of
ts leading details, reproduces with curi
ous exactness the great victory of Miani,
or Meeaunee, by which Gen. Napier, in
1813, broke the power of the hitherto
unconquereel warriors of Beloochistan.
In both cases the European troops
assumed the offensive against a much
larger force than their own, and the
beaten Orientals displayed a stubborn
tenacity seemingly quite at variance
with their usual impulsive temper. The
description of the Arab mode of fight
ing, "rushing in under the muzzles of
tho guns upon their , hands and knees
and then slashing right and left," reads
like the 6tory of Miani over again. The
Belooch swordsmen dashed in under the
bayonets and hewed with their short
swords at the limbs of the British sol
diers. After the battle 43 men of one
English, regiment were found wounded
bv a slash across the knee. ; The be
havior of Osman Digna's Arabs in their
retreat, "walking away with arms
folded, as if sauntering through a
bazaar," is a perfect photograph of that
of the Beloochis at Miani when the
splendid charge of the Irish Brigade
had finally turned the scale against
,them. VOur troops," said Napier, "fol
lowed up the retreating enemy, ponritfg
in volley after volley till they were tired
of slaughtering, but still the stern war
riors, of Beloochistan preserved their
wonted swaggering stride and would not
quicken it even though death was at
their heels." Evidently there are seme j
"impulsive Orientxls" who are cot easiir j
cowed bv defeat, whatever some, Li-
torisns may S3y.

LOST; IX X BLIZZ ARD. "
One of the- saddest Vf'this winter's
storm tragedies, says i Dafcofa corre
spondent, was that which -resnlted m tho
death of the Nelson family, who' hyed
near Sanborn. They had cot been in
the Territory long, and they knw om
paratively little about the fieTcine&s'oJ
tho blizzards. . They were poor and had
made but 6cant provision for the winterf
Running , out of fuel, they had been
burning Btraw, and as the consumption
of ihis article was enormous. daring .tlie
severe weather, it was found almost Jn;
possible to keep enough of, it on hand to
last more than a few hours. t l When the;
last great blizzard swept over tho coun
try, the Nelsons found themselves with
only a little straw near" at hand and their
necessities very great. The nearest ttack
was only half a mile from f heir house,-
but they feared to brave the storm in "on
4brt to reach it. , : ' '
Hoping that the tem pes tjtvould soon
espend its force, they economized the ruel
they had at hand as best they could J
Doling out the straw, sparingly,1- tney
managed to keep theirf hovel tolerably
warm, and to cook such food as they
were supplied with. . Economical as they
were with the si raw, however, it was
spent before the storm i showed any sighs
of abating, and as tne cold grwinpre
intense it became a. question of securing
more luei or ireezmg i,o ueaiu. : xi is. ue-(
lieved that they realized the desperate
situation they were in and the possibility
that if they once ventured out in. the
blinding gale they l might not return.
None of them wishingjto, remain it. the.
cheerless home, the father and his. two
children started out.,. Jt is known that
they reached the straw stack, and-. each,
having secured a load, started back; but
in changing their course they last their
way, and wandered aimlessly about- uni
til, exhausted and benumbed with cold,
they could go no further. The father
then appears to have dug a cave in a
huge snow drift at a point as little ex
posed as possible, into which he put the
children. He then started out in-,search
of assistance, but finding none he suc
cumbed to the snow and the cpld. Be-.
coming tired of waiting ior him, and
probably crazed by her suffering one of
the girls left her retreat and wandered
aimlessly about the prairie. All per
ished. A searcliing party found the body
of one little one in the cave, and that
of the other a few rods away, and that of
the father about half a mile from his
own door.
Almost every blizzard that sweeps
over this section , causes similar cases of
suffering and death. They will, continue
until people coming here to settle under
stand in advance that they are braving
anr Arctic climate in winter, and that
when the blizzard rolls about their, habi
tations they must stay in doors and vait
for clearing skies. .

The Niscro's Captive Crew.
The captain of the steamer Nisero has
arrived in London, and will havo an au
dience with Eirl Gnuiville. The yllajah
of Tenom asks G2,000 ransom i for the
crew, the banishment of the rival Rajahs,
and the declaration that' Tcnomi is free
frOm the Dutch. The Nisero was'
wrecked on the west coast of Achecn,
Sumatra, on Nov. 12, while on a voyage
from Sourobaya to Singapore., The
vessel was looted by the subjects of the
Rajah of Tenom, and the crew, consist
ing of twenty-five"" inch, among whom
was an American, were tasen capuve.
Late in November the British gunboat
Pegasus visited the Acheen coast to give
aid to the captive crew, but it withdrew
when the Bajah announced that he
would put all the captives to death if
the gunboat fired a single shot In De
cember the Dutch sent out aiijfcx peti
tion from Padang to rescue the crew.
The expedition effected a landing 'ait
Tenom on Jan. 7, and the laud and naval
forces bombarded and burned the Rajah't
capital and destroyed several Ullages.
