Blow
She
to
Had Bejected.
"Penelope, can't you say some
thing to soften the blow?" im
plored the young man.
"Oh, Philip, Philip! What can
I say? It is all over between us."
"That doesn't soften it any," re
joined Philip; "that's what you
said before."
And the unhappy youth looked
mournfully at a ten-dollar volume
of poems he had presented her a
few months before, and heaved a
sip-h so deep, so profound, that it
made his shoes perceptibly tighter.
"Penelope," hecontinued, "when
a young man builds all his hopes
on the promise of a young woman
and that young woman deliber
ately goes back on that promise,
it knocks the props as it were, out
from under bis hopes, and they
come down, kerswash! You may
have a perception some time, Pen
elope," he added with increasing
gloom, "of the feelings of a human
being standing by a wreck of this
kind and looking at the debris of
his own happiness."
"I couldn't help it, Philip," she
replied, "I have become satisfied
that wo were not made for each
other. 'We should not be happy
together. "We "
"Is it because I am a mug
wump?" he demanded.
"No, Philip, it is not that, I
think with proper nursing, you
would recover from that in time.
Neither have I any objection to
your personal appearance, your
position in society, your habits "
"My habits!" he ejaculated. "I
hope not. Penelope Witherspoon,
1 never in my life took a drink of
anything intoxicating, never
chewed tobacco, never smoked a
cigar, never went to a circus, and
never was in a ball-room. I don't
drink tea or coffee, eat peanuts,
chew gum, read novels, swear,
gamble, lie, use snuff, play check
ers, sit up late at night, goto thea
ters, eat between meals, nor read
Amelie Rives. I never kissed a
young woman in my life "
"So far as my experience goes,"
asserted Penelope, retrospectively,
"I can certify that you have not.
Philip," she added, with a glow of
tender womanly sympathy on her
face, ''you asked me to say some
thing to soften the blow. I think
I can foresee a great future for you.
Your habits have fitted you for a
shinintr career."
"In what capacity, may I ask?"

bune. Killed in a Logging Damp.
From Mr. Noah Taylor, who
was in town Wednesday, wo learn
of averysad accident which caused
the death of a young man named
McCloud, in Leavitt & Clemens'
logging camp, Tuesday afternoon.
The young man had begun work
in the camp the morning of his
death, being employed as skid
greaser and log roller. No one
was present when he was killed,
but it is supposed that in rolling a
log into the slide, he failed to
loosen the jack, and was car
ried along with the log ome
distance. When found his head
was terribly mangled, he hav
ing been killed instantly. He
had friends in the upper part of the
county, who were informed of the
sad affair, and who attended to his
burial Wednesday afternoon, in
Ford's cemetery. The young man
came from Wisconsin last spring,
having been employed in Weather
wax's camp since April. He was
highly respected by all who knew
him. Ho was about 20 years of
age. Chehaiis Vidette, 5.

How She Softened The
The Unhappy Youth
Victoria, B. C, Oct. 7. The
steamer Cariboo J?ly,C&pt. Myers,
from Skeena river for Victoria,
went ashore in . Granville channel
on Sunday night last at 11 o'clock.
Mate Roberts, certified as master,
was in charge of the steamer.
The night was bright and the pas
sage is a clear run for fifty miles,
and the accident is due to culpa
ble negligence. The steamer went
on at extreme high tide, and as
soon as the tide ebbed the stern
filled with water and the deck
cargo floated about. She was
loaded with 3,500 cases of salmon
from the Windsor Canning com
pany. The passengers and crew
got safely ashore, and were picked
up by the steamer Quictetej from
Alaska and landed here this morn
ing. The steamer was valued at
$18,000. There is no insurance,
and probably she will be a total
loss. The cargo was insured.
The schooner Favorite, the last
of the sealing fleet, arrived this
morning with 2,350 seals.
Two schooners have left fcr the

The fish commission steamer
Albatros left yesterday down the

especially for black cod, which

She will then examine along the
coast to San Francisco.
The Sound steamers will refuse

A Sensational Story.
New York, Oct. 7. The World
this morning prints the follewing:
It has just transpired through
friends in Milan that Laura Schei
mer, a beautiful native of Boston,
28 years old, baa been imprisoned
in the Sultan's harem with thirteen
other women.
She is an opera singer and trav
eled through the United States
under Strakosch's management.
She became infatuated with the
English tenor' Byron, with whom
she went to Europe. Her friends
say he married her, but their life
was an unhappy one for her.
Last winter the American colony
at Milan heard that she had be
come an inmate of the harem, and
was the sultan's favorite. Accord-
ling to the story, the sultan is be
lieved to have become incensed at
the attempt of. the American min
ister to Turkey, who tried, on ac
count of Laura's friends, to get
the woman out of her captivity, so
one night poison was placed in the
ice cream furnished the occupants
ot the imperial seraglio.
Fourteen poor women, including
the American girl, were found
dead in the morning, and the bodies
of the victims were hurried away
to nameless graves. The story is
full' believed in Milan.
