A hawk once courted a white little dove, !
With the softest of winzs and a voce fall of
love ; !
And the hawk Oh I yes, aa other bawks go -Was
a well enough hawk -for aught that I
know. 1
But ehe was a dove,
And her bright voung life- i "
Had been nurtured in love, i
Away from all strife. !
Well, sho married the hawk. The groom waa
delighted; !
A feast was prepared and the friends all in
vited. ., ;
(Does any one think my story not true ? i
He is certainly wrong my facta are not new.)
Than he flew to his nest, !
With the dove by his side, '
And soon all the rest j
Took a squint at the bride.
A hawk for his father, a hawk for his mother,
A hawk for his sister, a hawk for hia brother.
And uncles and aunts there were by the
dozens. .
And Oh 1 such a number of hawks for his
cousins! -They
were greedy and rough
A turbulent crew.
Always ready enough
To be quarrelsome, too.
To the dove all was stranee-but bever a word
In resestment she gave to the 'wrangling-she
beard. : " . i
If a thought of the peaceful, far-away nest
Ever haunted her dreams, or throbbed in her
breast,
No bird ever knew;
Each hour of her life;
Kind, gentle an1.' true,
Was the hawk's wife.
But the delicate nature was too sorely tried,
With no visible sicknoss the dove drooped and
died: 1
Then loud was the grief, and the wish all exr
t pressed ,
To call the learned birds and hold an inquest.
So all the birds came,
But each shook bis head ;
No disease could he name
Why the dove should be dead.
... " v i : ' -
Til! a wise old owl with a knowing look,
Stated this: "1 he case is as clear as a book;
No disease do I find, or accident's shock;
The cause of her death was too much hawk I
Hawk lor her father, and hawk for her mother,
Hawk for her sister, and hawk for her brother,
Wat more than the delicate bird could bear;
She ath winged her away to a realm more
fair I .
" She was nurtured a dove : !
' .Too hard a hffwk's lite
Void of kindness and love, j
Full of hardneis and strife." j
And when he had told them the other birds
knew i
That
this was the cause, and the verdict was
true.
QUEER FOLKS.
"When Ralph Chadsey proposed to
Helen Grantham and was refused, he was
a very angry man. He knew that h4 waa
homely, ignorant and awkward, that his
tastes were not refined, and that his
'home circle was not one in which a lady
could be happy; he also knew that Miss
Grantham was very pretty, accomplished
and the inmate of a home which every
one delighted to visit. But he was
equally certain that lie was the' sole
owner of a small factory that yielded
him several thousand dollars par year,
and he .had been taught to believe that
no faults of birth, education or manners
would prevent a man of means marry
ing into any family that had little or no
money. I
Miss Grantham's refusal
amazed him,. and
as,tnanks to genera-1
. -a .
tions of mean ancestors, he recognized
no rights but his 'own, and had never ex
perienced the faintest throb of chival
rous feeling, he soon came to hate Miss
Grantham as much as he bad loved her,
and when the young woman soon after
ward accepted and married Frank
Hatcher,' the rejected lover swore he
would have revenge on both Helen and
her husband.
In any one but a brute the desire for
revenge would soon have been gratified
oy the experience of Mr. and Mrs.
Hatcher, for Frank, although one of the
charming fellows whom all women adore,
had in business but little stability and
shrewdness. He made debts for his em
ployers, spent his salary before he
earned it, aad ran so heavily into debt
that his brightness and his wife's bloom
rapidly disappeared. Several acts of
carelessness caused him to lose his situ
ation, and he reached a degree of des
peration that would have made almost
any vindictive enemy pity him. Just
then the civil war broke out and Frank
was lucky enough to obtain a commis
sion, the income of which brought com
fort to his wife aud baby. But even in
the army his carelessness got him into
. many misfortunes, the last of which was
that he lost his life by not exhibiting
proper vigilance at an outpost.
On hearing of Hatcher's death all his
creditors forgave him and tendered their
sympathies t6 his wife; but Chadsey, in
stead of burying his hate in the dead sol
dier's grave, fell more vindictive than
ever, it seemed to mm tnat ins oppor
tunity had escaped him, so he added in
tensity to his hatred and heaped all
upon the dead man's memory. Helen
bravely endeavored to earn a living for
herself and child, And Chadsey took a
room from which he could see her every
cold, wet morning, as she hurried to the
store in which she stood all day as a
saleswoman. Now, he fully believed she
regretted having rejected him; now he
could not doubt she would gladly accept
him were he to propose. The thought
gave him' the most blissful sensation of
his life, and he swore to himself that he
would rather die a thousand deaths than
let her see a penny of his money.
And he found, to his great delight, a
new object to hate; it was the son of
Helen and Frank Hatcher. The baby
whom Hatcher had left when he went to
the war grew rapidly, and was as mis
chievous as boys in general. He had
his fair proportion of 1 quarrels with
other boys in the village, and Chadsey
sometimes was delighted be jond mea
sure by the spectaole of little Frank be
ing severely poiinded by a larger boy.
Chadsey was also pleased on recognizing
on tho boy, from time to time, 'clothing
that undoubtedly had been made from
garments that Frank Hatcher, Senior,
had worn years before.
Occasionally Chadsey would hear that
some one had proposed to the pretty
widow, but without success, and more
than "once, when wondering aloud why
"the pink and white fool," as he always
called her, declined suitors with money,
e was answered with:
"Perhaps she's waiting for you, Chad
aey." This remark was always accompanied
by a coarse laugh, but the object of it
did not wince, for he took m earnest
what was meant for fun. Waiting for
him! Was that tho reason she always
passed his lodgings on her way to her
workVas it to affect him to tender-
nftRH that she wore exnressions sweet.
pathetic, romantic, or melancholy, all of
v which Chadsey believed was merely
"put on" for use out of doors? Well,
she might wait; he could stand it as
long as she, and he would rejoice to see
her grow gray with laughing.
Meanwhile little Frank grew in char
acter as well as ino'ues. and determin
ing one day that hia mother should not
work any longer, he secured a position
with a firm in which Chadsey was a
silent partner. Chadsey did not learn
for a fortnight of what had happened;
when he found that Mrs. Hatcher was
no longer .what - he called a common
working woman, and that he himself was
one of her son's employers, he was furi
ous and demanded that the boy be dis
charged; but his partners outvoted him,
for their new clerk, being liked by every
one, was worth far more than he cost
them.
Although baffled, Ghadsey was not
beaten. He felt that the boy was to
some extent in hia power, so he gratified
his vengeful spirit from time to time by
scolding the new , clerk on slight pre
texts. He soon found that this course
waa not safe, for the boy had tongue as
well as spit.it, and he occasionally re
torted in a style that turned the laugh
on the special partner. Then Chadsey
determined to disgrace him and thus
strike his mother. It would not be hard
to do; the old trick of putting marked
money from the drawer into the young
clerk s pocket would answer every pur
pose, so he adopted it. v;;
Then there was a terrible scene in the
store, and Mrs. Hatcher, with tears in
her eyes, hurried up to the store to plead
for her boy. Chadsey had expected this
with great glee, but befoie Mrs. Hatcher
arrived the boy had pleaded his own
case to his employers with such spirit
tnat tne special partner had turned pale
and walked aside into a wareroom,
where one of the men heard him mutter:
"His mother's eyes! He has his
mother's eyes!"
Nevertheless, Chadsey, before abrupt
ly quitting the store, had insisted that
the case against the boy should be
pressed. His partners, who, had their
suspicions as to how the marked money
came in Frank's pockets, assured Mrs.
Hatcher that ,- they believed there must
be some mistake, thatlhey would not
think of making the affair public, but
that Mr. Chadsey, their special partner,
insisted on it.
"Then," said Mrs. Hatcher, turning
very pale, "J must appeal to Mr. Chad
sey." '
"You?" exclaimed one of the partners,
so surprised that he gave a customer
too much change; "you appeal to Mr.
Chadsey?" -
"Certainly," said Mrs. Hatcher,, turn
ing to leave the store.
"Excuse me, madam," said the part
ner, "but In that case, I must accom
pany you. It may be necessary to
reason with that fellow by knocking him
down."
The couple went together to Chadsey's
lodgings, but could not gain admittance
to his room, the door of which was
locked , although the servant insisted
that Mr. Chadsey had come in an hour
before and had not gone out again.
"He's a coward!" exclaimed the part
ner, hammering at the door, and calling
Chadsey by name.
finally, the door yielded to an extra
effort, and the couple entered. No one
was visible..
rThis i3 very strange," said the part
ner, looking about the room. Then, as
he looked at some papers on the table,
he continued, "no, it isn't, either look
at this.
Mrs. Hatcher took a sheet of paper
which the partner handed her, and
read: ; ;

mother's eyes, ! "Ralph Chadsey."
Mrs. Hatcher's eyes filled with tears,
so thut for a moment or two she cpuld
not read a second sheet that was ped
in her hands, so her companion read it
aloud to her;, it was a will, which, in a
few words bequeathed all his property
to Mrs. Helen Hatcher, formerly known
as Helen Qrantham.
"Ho will revoke this in an hour," said
the partner; "he never could live up to
so much decency."
And the partner was right, for, on go
ing into Chadsey's bedchamber, he found
his special partner lying on the bed with
a pistol in his hand and a bullet-hole in
his head.
A queen's Birthday Parly.
On the birthday of the Queen of
Portugal a ball took place at Lisbon, in
a temporary ball-room, on a terrace
fronting the sea. It was hung with red
and white striped cloth, and decorated
with suits of armor and banners. Baskets
fijled with flowers and vines from the
cornices, and the walls were festooned
with vines, interspersed with dahlias of
every coaceivable hue, while large vases
of - flowers were placed at intervals
around the room. The prevailing flower
was the dahlia, which in Portugal at
tains to a size, beauty and perfection of
color unknown to colder climates. The
Queen wore a scarlet corsage and train,
the latter over a petticoat of white wat
ered silk, richly embroidered with sil
ver. She wore a , girdle of silver cord.
finished with two large tassels. Her
diamonds were o' great size and beauty.
lhe dress was made high, on account of
her delicate health. -Owing to this the
ladies present all wore high-necked
dresses. The ball did not break up till
half-past four, as the Queen wished to
see the comet, and no guests left till
after their majesties. The ex-Kincr was
present. His second wife," and con
sequently the stepmother of the present

Miss Elise Henssler of Boston, who
made her debut as an opera singer some
thirty years ago.

"What did he dp?" asked the court.
"He stood on his head on stands in
Gansvoort Market,' the policeman said.
"I suppose you call that a well under

"What else did he do?"
"He threw a spittoon at a peddler, he
stole apples from a farmer and broke a
confectioner's window," said the police
man, stopping for breath.
"For all of whleh he cannot be im
prisoned," replied the court.
"He swore big oaths," the policeman
said. ,
"There you have him under the new
code," said the justice. ,
"All I skid was that the copper ought
to go shoot himself, he waa too fresh,"
said Taylor, sobbing.
, "If I let you go," said the court, look

"And never come to court again"

A Mnn or Yean,
"Auero Largo " or "Long Hide." ac
cording to the English derivation of the
Spanish word, burned himself to death
at the Real del Castillo, Lower Califor
nia, on Thursday night, December 14th.
For some time the old Indian had been
feeble and unable to walk. During the
recent heavy rains that fell in that re
gion, the jold man sought refuge in a
cabin neSr by. Last week he crawled up
to the house of Senor Francisco Parma
and told him he was very hungry. The
latter gave him a good dinner, besides
furnishing provisions for future emer
gencies, and then instructed the other
Indians at the rancherio to care for him.
They replied that they had; always done
so, as they entertained unusual rever
ence for the old man on account of his
age. Thursday, the date in question,
was a cold day in Lower California, and
"Long Hide" was given an extra
blanket by his dusky friends. This he
soon tore into strips, put them on a fire,
and soon his "tepee" or brush house
was all ablaze. When this had been ac
complished, despair for the moment
seeming to seize him, he plunged head
long into the burning mass.
A stout you n g Indian near by seized
him and tried to drag him out of danger,
but the old man grabbed a stake in the
ground near by, held himself in the fire,
and before other help could come, was
literally roasted alive, dying within a
few hours after the occurrence men
tioned. "Long Hide" was married and
the father of several children when the
Mission of San Diego was built, 120
years ago, and from what he told parties
who visited him he must have been not
less than thirty years of age at the time.
Three or four years ago ho lost a" son
who could remember when the Mission
was first built by the, Franciscan friars.
This son must have been not less than
120 years of age. "Long Hide" told of
the first settlement of Old Town years
before the Mission was built; of the
coming of ships for water at Russian
Springs and many things of great inter
est in the past history of San Diego and
vicinity. ,
Juan Melandrez, who lives near the
Real de Castillo, says he knew "Long
Hide" fifty years ago, and that he ap
peared then nearly as old
$hen as he did when he
died. He says that the old man fre
quently beat the best horses owned in
the country on trips to San Diego, one
hudered miles distant from the Real, and
that he often chased deers until they
gave up with fatigue. He would then
capture them after they had laid down to
rest. Until a year ago he was able to
walk about and travel quite well. Since
then he has been obliged to crawl about
on all fours like a cat or dog. He re
tained his sight perfectly and all the fac
ulties of mind up to the day he died.
For twenty-five years he has refused to
speak any Spanish to reveal any
secrets of the country or of those living
in it. When asked to do so, he only re
plied, "I know too much of those who
live." To the writer of this "he said not
ten days ago, "I know ranch, I tell
nothing. I am very hungry, I am too
old, I &m going home. If you knew all
I know, the country would be excited. I
shall soon rest, and not be hungry or
tired any more." When asked if he
knew of the "Lost Mine" which the
Frenchmen worked, the old "Benedini
Mine," and of the silver mine near
the Real del Castillo, from which such
rich float silver ore has lately been
found, he replied: "Yes, I know all, but
I tell nothing only this, they all exist
and can be found, but never have been
Bince they were left." It is believed, if
not well known, that he knew just where
these mines are to be found; and the old
Indian's assertion that they do exist has
awakened a new interest in these mat
ters, f Counting the years he lived
before the old mission of San Diego was
built be must have been at least one
hundred and fifty years old, if in fact,
not much older.' Senor San Francisco
Parma took a great interest in the old
man, and often fed him when hungry.
George J. Bowron, the representative of
the Engligh capitalists, S. W. Murphy,
the mechanicalengineer of the San Nic
olas mine, and Colonelj D. K. Allen,
visited the old man, and took a great
interest in him. The old Indian is dead,
but could he have told his story of this
part of California, no doubt many secrets
would have been revealed which How
are as a sealed book. When the old
man was told that a railroad had been
run into San Diego, through Old Town,
and that within twelve months the cars
would run to the Real del Castillo, he
said: . ..
"Now 1 am ready to die. I have lived
loner enough. My people will soon all
follow. I am tired and want to rest from
hunting." f San Diego Sun.
Counting the Cost.
"Are "yon intending to buy a new
sleigh this winter," asked a mechanic of
Charles Wallace, as ho met him on the
StiFG6ii :
"I have not decided yet. Why?"
"I have some good ones on hand, and
will sell you one at a bargaiu. , Come
and see them."
"If I oonclnde to purchase I will give
you a call.
"I will give you time if you have not
the money just now; can wait three or
six months if you like; glad to accommo
date you."
"Well, I'll think about it."
Charles Wallace was a young man just
started in life. He had bought a snug
little farm, with a cozy cottage and good
outDuudmgs, and urougnt 111s young
wife there to help him enioy his new
home. He paid eight hundred dollars
down and gave a mortgage for tne other
thousand dollars, to be paid in yearly in
stallments of two hundred dollars prin
cipal and interest on the remainder.
Ellen had a little money that she had
earned in teaching school and she
furnished the house as far as she could
without running into debt. She 'was a
sensible girl, and preferred buying fifty
sheep to furnishing the parlor. "It will
not take long," she said, "for the sheep
to bring money enough to buy a parlor
set and carpet, and we Bhall have them
growing all the time, and we can wait;
our sitting room is good enough." So
when her husband came in and told her
that Jones would sell him a sleigh and
wait for his pay, she shook her bead and
looked grave.
"I would not doit, Charley. We shall
not drive much this winter, and that old
box sleigh fiof your father's will answer,
v "You know that id three months there
is two hundred dollars, besides sixty
dollars interest to be paid, which we
must not fail to meet. Let us see where
that is coming from before wo agree to
pay fifty dollars more for a new sleigh
that we can do without."
, The young man looked rather serious,
and ate his dinner very quiety. That
evening he sat down by the stove while
Ellen was clearing the table and said :
"I reckon I shall have to give up the
sleigh; I have been thinking over , what
you said at noon, and unless I sell off
come stock, I cannot, for the life of
me see how I can raise the money for a
payment on the farm in three months." -"That
has to be done, Charley, and we
must not sell the stock either; it would
be killing the goose that laid the golden
egg."
; "Have you sent for your parlor furni
ture?" .
"No, I was in no hurry; we should not
use the room half a dozen times through
the winter; so I put the wool money into
the bank until I needed it."
"We had good luck with our poultry;
that brought us one hundred and fifty
dollars; but I have to pay some out of
that. How large a store bill have we, do
you suppose, Ellen?"
VI have no store bill, Charley, or any
other bill to pay. J have sold eggs and
butter for groceries."
"I owe something for nails, perhaps a
dozen dollars or so."
"Then there is twenty-five dollars yet
on the sewing machine."
"Yes; and as there is not a balance
due on the pigs, or have you paid it?"
"No, ten dollars there! And twenty
dollars more on the colt; and say ten
dollars to the blacksmith?"
"Anything else that you can think of
Charley?"
"My boots! Three and a half! Let me
see, it seems as if there was something
more. Yes, you know I got a meat bar
rel and a water tub; six more."
"It will take about all the poultry
I money to pay these bills, and I would
pay them right away.",
"They ought to be paid sure! But,
Ellen, where will the money come from
to make up the first payment?"
"You have some grain to sell unless
you conclude to feed the lambs and fat
them for market." ; :
"It would pay to fatten them, but they
are yours."
"No, we are going to pay for the farm,
whether the, parlor is ever furnished or
not, and, Charley, we will keep out of
debt, if possible, for the future."
'I did not suppose I was owing so
much."
"Little debts count fast, and it does
not take long to make them large. I
hope you will settle them all up right
away, so as to begin a free man. A man
in a debt is a slave to his creditors."
"Suppose we get a hundred dollars for
the lambs; how in the name of goodness
are we going to raise the other hundred
and sixty dollars?"
"There is the money for the wool and
fifty dollars of the butter money, and I
reckon, Charley, yon can earn twenty or
thirty dollars in three months."
"But, Ellen, you want a new dress or
two.'V-.; ' y
"No, thank you, I am very well off
now. You never asked me what I did
with the money that you gave me when
your checks came for the butter, and as
I did not need it for household expenses,
I thought it best to save it to help pay
off the mortgage, for I am in a hurry to
get that off our home, so that we can
feel independent." j
"You're a dear, littlo, prudent woman,
and I am as happy as 1 can be to see my
way clear!" : j 1
"As happy as if you were riding in
Jones' new sleigh with' a lien on it?"
"If you had said one word in fator of
it, I should have bought it, Ellen; I had
not thought." i
"Then there would have been another
debt to pay! We can live just as happy
to ride in the box sleigh till we are really
able to have a better One, and we shall
feel better by a fifty dollar bill next
spring." j
The next day Jones 'saw Wallace and
urged him to buy one of his new
sleighs. I
"No," he replied, "lam not intending
to buy a new one this season."
"If I had dohe as well as you have this
Sear," said the other, !"I would have a
andsome turnout to give my wife a ride
once in a while." .
"My wife would not enjoy a ride in a
sleigh that was not paid for, and I shall
not buy one till I can j pay for it. I am
going to pay for my farm and home be
fore I dash out in much style, and my
wife feels as I do about it."
That evening Jones was in the Btore
and made the remark that Charley Wal
lace would be a rich man by the time he
was forty, for he had ' a sensible woman
for a wife and he had common sense him
self. . i

i;' ' , . . . , EAST PORTLAND, July R. 18TS.
To those suffering from Catarrh, I would state that I have bet n afflicted with Carrh for twenty-five years.
I ha-t continual aching pains over the eyes, an for fifteen years have been troubled with swe- e? s m stomach
and left side, and could smell nothing. In the meantime I triea Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, Sanfi.nis Radical
Cure for Catarrh, and other remedies letuimmended by friends, besides remedies from local phvsicians, all of
which failed to cure, aud the best gave but slight relief. About six weeks ago I met Dr. James Keck. He said
the trouble iu my side aid stomach was caused by the Catarrh having extended to those points. He als- said
that he had a sure cure for Catarrh, and he could cure me. About five weeks age-4 txgan using the SURE
CURE. The pain over my eyes has disappeared: the soreness hi my side and stomach is gradually disappear
ing; my sense of smell is returning: and, m fa t, I feel like a new man, and am convinced that I will soon be
permanently cured. Any one doubting the above statement can consult me in person or by mall, and I wiil
repeat to them viva voce what I have here committed to paper, '
