TBI IITIUIBLE GIRL. Hating deciJod to finish tho year io Italy I looked aronnd me for a dwelling, to be led up011 reeeoneble terms. I lonnd whet I wenthd in the oaUklrt. of theanoiont oity of Luoca, one of the loWicst pot on the peninsula, lhe house wae qnite new, and in eferr way desirable, while the rent asked for it was absurdly low. I questioned the agont in regard to thia ciroumatanoo. Having ' my money aafe, he oould afford to be truthful." There ia nothing againxt tho houoo itoelf, but the grounds have the reputa tion of being haunted. Btrango aounda are said to be hoard near the lodge of rook iu tho park yonder. We Italians are superstitious, aignor," he added, with a bow, "but I presumo to an American a ghost is no objoction." 'So little," I replied laughing; "that I am obliged to you for tho opportunity of making the acquaintance of this one." Such superstitions aro common iu Italy, and the agent'a story made very little impression uiion nie. During a tour of inspection around the 1 premises, I came npon the rock iu ques tion. It consisted of two walls of gran ite, perhaps twenty feet in height, meet ing at an oblique angle, covered over tbeir greater extent with wild vines. It struck me as an exceedingly beautiful nook, and appropriate for my hours of cntdwr lounging. On the following morning, provided with a book and a cigar, I went thither und disposod mysolf com?ortably in tho shade of an olive. I had become ab sorbed in the volume, when I was start led by the sound of a voice near me. It was evidently that of a woman, wonder fully soft and sweet, singing one of the ballads of the country. I could tlistin guinh the words as perfeotly as if spoken at arm's length from me. I started up in amazement. I had no visitors, and my only servant was an old nmn. Nevertheless, I made a thorough exploration of tho neighborhood, and nut intiod myself that there was no one iu the grounds. The only public road was half a mile distant, lhe nearest dwell ing wus directly opposite, acr.iss a level plain in sight, but fur out of earshot. In a word, I could mako nothing out of it. I observed that whon I loft my original position undor the olive, the voice be came instantly silent. It was only with, in the circumference of a oircle of about two yards in diameter that it was audiblo at all. It appeared to proceed from the anzlo between the two walls of rock. The minutest examination failed to reveal anything but the bare rock. Yet it was out of thU bare rook that the voice is sued. I returned to my former stution m downright bewilderment. Tho agent's story occurred to me, but even now I at tached no weight to it, I am a practi cal man, and was lirmiy convinced that there must be some rational explanation of the mysteiy, if I could but discover it. The voice was certainly that of a voung gfrl. But where wai sho? Was the old fable of the wood nymph a truth after all? Had I discovered a dryad em bosomed in in the rock? I imilotl scorn fully even as these fancies ran through my head, j ..JittWttate than half an hur the sing- lmf-conHWied. men it loasou, ana, IllOUgll- 1 WUUBU jmucuiy lui luurcvtai, I heard no more of it that day. When I returned to the house I nude no men tion of tho matter, resoldng to keep it to myself until I had soiled tho mys terv. ! The next morning at an airly hour I returned to tho spot. Aflor a tedious interval the singing begin again. It went softly and dreamily tarough one verse of song thou ceased.1 Presently I heard a deep sigh and then in a slow tone, the voico said: ; "Oh, how lonesome it! is Am I to pass my whole life in this drtary place?" There was no answer. Evidently the person was only soliloquising. Could ' she hear me if I spoke, as I heard her? supposing her to be a living being at all. I' determined to haz.rd the ex periment. "Who is that speaking?" I Hiked. For Borne minutes there wi no reply, then in a low, frightened wlisper, the voice said: I "What was it? I heard a voce!" "Yes, I answered, "you hard mine. noke to you." I "Who are, you?" asked the viice treru uously; "aro you a spirit?" "I am a living man," I returned. "Can you not see me?" "No," answered tho voicq "I can only hear you. Oh, where ire yon? Tray do not frighten me. Cone out of your concealment and let me se you." "Indeed, I don't wish to alrui you," I replied. '.'I am not hidde;. I am standing directly iu front of lhe spot whence your voice seems to con?." "You are invisible," was the tpmbling answer. "Your voice comes t rue out of the air. Holy Virgin! you nst be a spirit. What have I done to deserve this?" ) "Have no fear of me, I entrealyon," I said, earnestly. "It is a3 much d a mys tery to mo as it is to you. I hat yon speak but you aro otherwise infuible." "Are you a real living bein asked the voice, doubtfully. "Then wy do I not see j tu? Come to 111. I vill sit here. I will not fly." I "Tell me where I am to eome?I said. "Hero in mv garden in the ail." "There is no arbor here," I nurncd "nly a solid rock, "out of whth you era to be speaking. "Saints protect rue," answenl the voice. "It is too awful. I dare bt stay here longer, Spirit or man, fsrewil." "But you will come again," I phded. "Let mo hear you speak once morl Will you ' not be here to-morrow til same hour?" I "I dare not but yet your voice und as if you would do me no harm. ies, I will come?" I Then there was utter sileuce th mys terious speaker had gone. I retrned home in a state of stupid wonder.ues tioning myself if I had lost my stses, and if the whole ocetrrence wasrt a delusion. I was faithful to my apjint ment with the voice on the folliing morning, however. I had waited it a few momenta, when the soft, trem ins accents broke the silence, saying: "I am here." "And I too," I answered; "I am ( ite ful to you for coming." "I have not slept the whole ni t," said the voice, "I was so terrified. Am I doing wrong to eome?" "Are you still afraid of me?" "Not exactly, but it is so strange." "Will you tell mo your name?" "I don't know Lenore. What is yours?" "Ooorge," I answered, imitating her example uod giving my first name only. "(Shall we not be friends, Lenore?" "Ob, yes," answered tho voice with a silvery peal of laughter. Evidently its owner was getting over her fears. "Don't be offended, George. It is so strange two people who cannot see each other ami perhaps never will, making friends." "I will salve the mystery yet.Lenore," I annwored, "and And out what you are. Would you be glad to seo mo in my proper person?" "Yes, she replied, "I should like to see you." "And I would give a great deal to see you, Lonore. You must be very boauti ful if your face is like your voice." "Oh, hush!" was tho agitated answer. "It is not right to speak thus." "Why not? Do von know, Lenore, that if this goes on, I shall end by fall ing in love with yon, though I never see you." "You aro vory audacious," was tho reply. "If you were really here, before me, I should punish you.for it. As it is, 1 am iroinir now." "But you will come again to-morrow, Lonore?r' "If you promise to be more discreet, Goorge, yes." As may bo imagined, I did not fail to keep mv engagement with my invisible friend. For many conseontive days these strange meetings continued. As absurd as it nity seam, the voice was be ginning to make a powerful impression upon me. I felt in its, soft tones the manifestation of a sweet, refined woman's soul. True, I had made no progross towards unraveling tho mystery, nevertheless, I was confident that through some inex plicable dispensation of Providence I had beon permuted to hold communion with a real, living, lovely woman, from an unknown distance. She had not yet told me more than her first name, and I did not press her for more as yet. Her only answer to my question as to whero she' was, was, "In the garden." Sho did not seam capable of grasping the fact that I was not invisibly near her. She seemed content with matters ns they stood, and for the present I oould do no more. I made no one my confidant as to my daily occupation; first, becauso I know that I should be regarded as a madman upon my mere statement of the facts.and next, because I shrank from having an auditor at my mysterious conference. Will it bo lielieved? I was in love with the invisible girl in love with a voice Absurd, of course, but I am not the first man who has fallen in love with a woman's voice. Besides, I was confident that it wns'only a matter of time before I should see the girl m person. One day, toward tho end of summer, we had been talkiug, as usual, and I had said, "My stay in Italy is nearly over, Lenore." "Ah," was the quick reply, "you will leave me, George. ' "No, Lenore," I answered, "not if you wish mo to stav." "How can I help it, Goorge, whether vou go or stay? I have never seen you: I never shall sue you. What am 1 to you?" "All the world, Lenore," I nnswerod. "Ours has been a strange experience. Without knowing each other as people ordinarily do we have been close friends. Y iu aro more to me than a friend. I love you, Lenore." There was a quick, suppressed cry; no other reply. "He trnthful, Lenore. Tell me your heart. If you love me, trust to mo to discover your whereabouts and come to you. If you do not, say it, and I will spare you the pain of meeting me, and let us never speak again." There was. a pause; then she tremu lously said: "1 have never seen you, but my heart tolls mo to trust you. I know you are good and noble, and I am willing to leave my fnto in your hands. Yes, George, I lovo yon." Even as sho said tho words sho utterod a cry of alarm. Then, a gruff man's voice spoke: "Goto vou r room. Lenore. As to this villaiu with whom you have been holding theso secret meetings, wo shall soon find him and punish him, as ho deserves. Saarch for tho rascal, Antonio, and bring him to me." There was a nniclc trampling of feet and crushing shrubbery,' as if the men were breaking through it. Then another man's voice spoke: "Ho has diHnppeareil.your excellence. "Very well, we shall fiud bim yet. no cannot escape me. ibis is a nne piece ol business, surely the daughter of Count Villani holding secret meeting with none common vagabond. Lenore shall take the veil." "Yes." I cried, "tho bridal veil, Count. I shall pay my renpects in per son to-day. Then, leaving them to cet over their astonishment us best they might, I re turned to the house iu high spirits, lhe name Count Villani hud given mo the clue to the whereabouts of Lenore. The dwelling ef which I have spoken as situ ated across the. plain, and opposite the rock, was the residence of Count Villani. I had met the old gentleman in the city, and formed a speaking acquaintance with him. A' ceitbrr of us had men tioned our pri vate affairs, I had no menus of connecting liu daughter with my in visible girl. That afternoon I presented myself to the Count, and efter amazing him with mv story, which a few tests con vinced him true, formally proposed for his daughter's band. As my wealth and social positions are well known, h offered no objections, and his daughter was sent for. As she entered the room I saw tbat,ny idea of her had been less than true. I bad never seen so lovely a woman, nor one who so perfectly embodied my highest conception of grace and beauty. Her dark eyes, still with tears, met mine in quiringly. ...... T "Lenore," said I, "I have come as I Pr'GTOrge," she cried, with a radiant rmile, "is that yon?" "Are you disappointed?"! asked, am I what yoa expected?" "You could not be more," she replied naively, "yon are no less." ' "Now that we meet as solid, material beings," I oontinned, "are you willing to ratify the contract we made when we were only voioe, Lenore? Your father gives ns permission." It may lie supposed that I received a satisfactory answer, when the good-natured count fonnd it discreet to turn away his eyes during my reception of it. As to the strange circumstance which was the means of uniting ns, a series of tosts revealed a remarkable accoustio property in tho rock, by which persons standing in certain positions with refer ence to it, were able to hear eaoh other with ease, more man a quarter oi a rune anart. It is a matter of fact solution of the mystery, but Lenore and I aro none the leas grateiui lor me goou omcos oi the i-'k. A Woman's BiiMiiess Buccess, An immense business success has been reached by the proprietress of tho largest and most respected German daily paper in New York. This lady was left a widow with six small children, and a lit tle newspaper which sho desired to sell. Only S'mJO was the largest sum offered for it. Hoping to find a nioro generous purchaser later ou. she porsuaded its editor to remain at its head for a short time, but no ono wanted tho little journal. Its editor was a clever writer and a judicious sclocter of news, and month by month the popularity of the little sheet grew and grew, and at last, aftor a year or two, she relinquished the plan of partimr with it at all. She mar ried tho editor, but sho always kept the business of the publication nnder ner own care, learning by each experience how to purchase paper with more intern gence, employ work people, manage money, and yet find time to watch over and direct the education of her bovs aud cirls. After a time sho became rich, fell into the habit of driv ing down to her handsome and retired oihee daily at 10 o'clock, to return agniu at 3 o'clock iu the afternoon to an ele gant homo.from which her accomplished daughters wero happily married, aud from which her honored sons went forth to homes of their own. She has erected with her enrniucrs one of the handsomest buildings iu New York. She recently gave $50,000 to an old ladies homo (Ger man) and during all these years of pros perous toil sho has never been persocut ed or oppressed by mon. Indeed, they have not even desired to rise iu her path or stand in her way, and sho has nover coased to be a lady of high breeding and sweet, womanly sympathies. Dor Staats Zeitung is the leading German news paper, and Der Zeitung building is a most beautiful monument of woman's capacity to do the very best bread-win-niug work in the world, provided she gives her mind, heart and enthusiasm to its accomplishment. This tender mother who must needs provide for her young, wrought with such materials as sho had within reach, and (die never cried out to the world to ask if sho might. . l . Letter to Boston Traveller. A Dancing Lesson. An old dancing master iu Now York thinks that the modern modo of dancing as seen at public balls and Long Branch hops is most inelegant, ill-bred, immod est and unnecessary. A ladv who dances well and gracefully maintains her indo pondence of motion and a perfect bal ance. Tho moment sho becomes a cling idg vine and allows her head to rest on a man s shoulder and his arm to embrace instead of support her, she shows not only a shocking lack of refinement but of good dancing, and impedes- her part ner's movements as well as her own. This most judicious of men and sensible of teachers luys down the following as tho proper position in a round daNoe: "The gentleman should tako tho lady's right hand in his left, and she place hor left hand upon his shoulder, the fingers appearing in front. The gentleman should rest his right hand gently upon the lady's back near the wnist, and both should stand on parallel lines looking over the other's right shoulder, the lady turning her head slightly to the left. Both should bend the upper part of the person slightly, so that tho shoulders should not bo more than four inches apart and tho hands that aro clasped should remain only a few inches from tho person, not allowing for wild stick- out of arms recently adopted. In tho grouping thero is no more contact of person than a lady taking a gentleman's arm for walking. 1 But to put tho whole matter in a nutshell, the vulgar and vicious waltz vulgarly and viciously, the inuocent and refined iu a refined and in nocent manner." f nrlout Case of CircamstunlUI Evidence. An eminent English jurist once said: 'Everything that could tend to throw light upon the facts in tho caso ought to be admitted as evidence, even to tuo waging of a dog's tail." Tho concluding portion of tho sentence, tho reader will poi hnps think, might have been omitted. It will be discovered, however, that tho whole point of the story which follows, hinges upon what would seem the irrele vant words of the utterance The inci dent occurred at the trial of Cipi. Moon light's gang, before the Court of Assizes, in England, and runs in this wise: The prisoners, soven in number, were charged with having attacked and broken into tho dwelling house of Catherine Fitzgerald, on Decembr 7, 18X1. Captain Moonlight himself turned in "(inner, but his testimony, which his previous bad record tended to impeach, wus confirmed as to some of his accomplices named Tuohig in tho fol lowing curious way: A dog belonging to tho Twohigs had followed them to Mrs. Fitzgerald's Louse that nifjht. and had been left behind. McCarthy, Mrs. Fitz geruld's servant, gave the dog np to the police, and tho informer told them to whom it Ixdongdd. The dog was put in a bag by tho police, taken to a spot near the house of the Twohigs and then re leased. It immediately ran into tho house, and, when it saw Pat Twohig, it tint back its ears, wairged its tail and greeted him with all the demonstrations of fidelity and affection of its canine na ture. The jury found the prisoners guilty, and they were sentenced to seven years penal servitude. Large collars frequently have a white cravat bow of lawn or moll, edged with lace, tied in front. Drunkenness In Claclnoatl. """"a Colonel John F. Hoy, a temperance lecturer of considerable repute, was asked by a reporter in Louisvillo, Ky.: "In what portion of the United States does drunkenness prevail to the greatest extent?" "The least amount of intoxicating liquor is consumed in the New Eugland States. As you come West and South the habit increases. The worst city in the world is Cincinnati. There is nioro whisky and beer drank there, and more of the evil, misery and crime resultant 'rom tho use of liquors,than in any place in which I have over been, either in this country or Europe That remark of a Boston paper was crucially correct. It was to the effect that though somebody had styled Cincinnati tbo Taris of America,' it was the 'Hell of the World.' If HaVrison, the boy preacher, converts that town he'll perform a gigantio work." "To what class of society doos the ap petite for drink cause the greatest havoc ?" . "Among the laboring and poor classes. You see, the barrooms aro their only places of resort, the onlj places whero they can meet associates. The wealthy can purchase other pleasures, and are generally organizod into circles for mu tual amusement and recreation. Of course drinking exists among them as well as among the lowly, but its coubo quences are not nearly so fatal." tOr.0 AT LAHT.
