Romance off a,Convict iiirl.
The Pbetty Pickpocket who Might
Have Been a Fashionable Belle.
I
Tea yean ago this month a refined
and pretty young girl was aent to Black,
well's Island for picking the pocket of |
a lady en Broadway. Bay before yes.
terday the same girl, now a lovely wo
man of twenty.four, was convicted of
the theft and sentencod to four years
hard labor in the State prison. The
story of this unfortunate woman is a
most interesting one. Born in Lexing
ton avenue of wealthy end respectable
parents, she nevertheless inherited that
unfortunato temperament known as the
hysterical or emotional. When the
yonny girl was convicted the first time
the mother pleaded hard for the mis
guided daughter, but it was hoped that
the discipline of two years would bo of
advantage to her, and so the smtenco
was carried into execution. Thought
less and gay as a child she donned the
convict's dress., She utterly refused to
work, and considerable liberty was
givoa her. Everybody liked her, for
she was pretty and winning?moro like
a spoiled child than a dangerous woman
Te tho son of tho warden, a tall youth
of eighteen, she seemed areritable angel,
with her soft hands, deep blue eyoB, and
her volatile ways. It took him about
three months to arrive at the conclusion
that she wis the most admirable lemg
that this earth contained, and six
montho moro to decide that it was
wrong for such a refined little lady to
be kept in such a place. Ho was serv
ing an apprenticeship as gas-fitter in
New York. He began to neglect his
work on plea of illness, and to stay upon
the island instead of going t-ver to the
city. It was astonishing what an inter
est he took in all that related to the
affairs of the prison.
Never was so grand a chance offered
for a gallant hero to strike a grand
blew to captivate his lady. If Pajuline
Deschappelles bad been a convict instead
of a merchant prinoess, Claude Melnettc
would not hero had to resort to the
subterfuge of personifying a prince. "If
I get you out, will you marry me 7"
said the Claude of Blaehwell's Island ;
and bio Pauline responded : "Yes, yon
or anybody else j only be quick about
it." In broken words, caught through
gratings or behind iron doors, the fugi
tive lovais plauucd it. She should g;t
away and leave the J/-land alone, remain
in Now York three weeks and then ho
would join her.
A proper opportunity was long in
presenting itself, but :t cacao at last.
The warden bad loft for a time his son
on guard alone. The sister of tho young
man was in her room above; she was
ca'lcd down on some pretext and sent tu
a neighboring building. Quick as a
flash the pretty jail bird dashed up
stairs, tore off the convicts garb, and
donned tho sister's best suit. She did
not forget the veil and parasol with
which te shield her features, and she
had the wit to sober down her usual airy
gait to the more staid motion of the one
into whose shoes sho had stopped. Our
Claude was waiting "Hero, I want you
to row my sister over to New York," he
said to the men, and they did so.
It is not known how ho fixed mitt on
with the family, but certain it is that
three weeks later he promised to eherish
and protect for life that liborated jail
bird and she to love him, to honor aud
to obey.
A couple aged respectively fourteen
and eighteen were rather young to bo
gin house-keeping, so they lived in a
hotel. His lovo for her was a real pas
sion ; she was his angel no matter what
she did, and he worked hard all day
and every day to support her. As for
her, sho certainly respected her hus
band, she was grateful to him, she had
kept her promise, but the stained, dark
hands of the gas fitter were always a
horror to her ; it was towards the light
fingered gentry that she gravitated
gracefully and naturally.
Having tbo whole day to he rselt, in
the midst of the great metropolis, the
hereditary dormant passion was surely
and speedily routed to life. Thievinjg
is a disease. With this poor girl it
assumed the chronio state.* Before she
had boeu a wife two years she was ar
rested for grand larceny, tried and con
victed, and sentenced to Sing Sing for
throe ^cars. When she oamo out she
thought herself cured; the husband,
like Douglas, ever tender and truo, took
her home again. Unfortunately for bor
she nevor loved hi;n, and she was in
capable of keeping her promiao to be
honest.
At last she did fall in love. She tried
to piok the pocket of a rich Southerner,
and he caught her in the act and
chivalrously fargave her. Again a
yearning for something uobler and bet
ter took possession of her, and again she
promised never to yield to temptation ;
hut the new lovo awakened in her heart
made her ashamed ef her husband. Soon
she was again on trial for larceny, and
the father of her husband came forward
and did not epare hie evidente in full.
She received another term ia Sing Siag.
Io time the warden's soa was divorced
and married again.
Adelaide] oatne from prison the thi rd
timo to stand beside the death-bed of hor
mother. "If you are again tempted to
yield to ths fatal passion, my dear child,
think howinuch your poor mother loved
you," said jhe dyiag woman ; and again
the daughter took the pledge of abstin
ence. Shelwent to live with a sister in
Brooklyn. /At the ago of twenty -thrco
she was more of a child than sho had
been at foufteen.
"[ am uping up to my homo," she
said yesterday, Sing Sing?111 call it
my home, I have been there so much.
I believo iTliku it bettor than this New
York. I suppose it's because I am so
hardened," Jsnd the eyes fill with tears.
Her last pwdgo is 'broken ; tho paoio
oamo with its great excitement for all,
and an excitement especially caloulatod
to aggravate' a malady like hers. She,
fur four more years must occupy a

Too low an Aestimato is apt tu bo Bet
on tho dome*?? value of newspapers.
After reading- them, and putting our
selvos, through their agency, iu mental
correspondence', with the world, thoy
are thrown aside and forgotten. But
to suppose their usefulness bounded by
their aews eclumnn and the waste-bag
is a thriftlass nijstako.
In the first j?ftco, there are the hous
bold reoipos, toj be found in stray cor
nera, often excellent, and deserving a
refuge on the fly leaf of the family
cook-beok. Then come the protty
versos, the strange and droll stories
the brief biographies and reminiscences
wbich, pasted in a scrap book, are a
Bourco of never ^ ending pleasure not
only to thoso who do not care for richer
intellectual food, but to those who have
only odd minutes for reading.
Notwithstanding the squibs jocular
journalists hare penned on the use of
newspapers for bed clothing, we know
from experience that thee aro not to be
despised. They may not be as comfor
table as your blaukots, but certainly
they keep out the cold. Two thick
nesses) of papers arc hotter than a pair
of blankets, and in'the ease ofpirsoos
who dislike the wAight of many bod
clothes, they arc ?aluab.o. A spread
made ef a double ftpar of papers botween
a p.overing~?4^ft-HMNfcid edrfirr^r*irdc~?ira
ble in evory household* The papers
should be tacked tege'.her with, and al
so basted to the covering to k'ep them
from slipping. An objection has been
made on account ol' the- rustling, but if
soft papers ho chosen the noise will not
be annoying, especially should the
spread be laid betwecu a blanket and
tho counterpano.
An a protection to plants against cold
both in nnd out of doors, nothing is bet
ter. If newspapers are pinned up ovor
night at a window between pots aud
glass, the flowers will not only not be
frozen, but will not even get chilled,
. o they aro so liable to be at this sea
son. In the same nay, if taken to cover
gardon beds, on the frosty nights of
early autumn, they will allow tho plan s
to remain safely out doors soute timo
later than is common.
One of the oddest services to put our
journals to is the keeping of ice in sum
.nor. Ab ingenious housekeeper recent
ly discovered that her daily lump of
ice would lost nearly twico as long wheo
wrapped in newspapers, and placed in
any kind of covered box, as when trust
ed sololy to a rcfjigerator. This is
very convenient, since it is possible to
have the best and cheapest refrigerator
constantly at hand.
To polish all kinds of glass aftor
washing, except table glas*, no cloth or
flannel is half so good as a newspaper;
and for a baker's dozen of other uses,
quite foreign to its primal purpose, it is
vtithout a rival.?Scribntr'i.
A California Tragedy.
A terrible tragedy occurred at Wat
sonville, California, resulting in the
instant death of Mr. J. Cilkey and Dr.
C. E. Cleveland. There had been an
old feud between tho men, and Dr.
Cleveland started out, avowing his pur
pose te kill Gilkey. A man, named
Devoe, tried to make him desist, bat to
no avail. The men met, drew pistols
approached to within two feet of each
other, and fired simultaneously. Dr.
Cleveland fired twice, and fell dead on
his face. Gilkey retroatod a few steps,
leaned against a tree, and then fell
dead to the ground. Both men had
been drinking hard during the day.
Truckee river, Colorado, is full of
trout. A man has lately been trying to
contract for the delivery of inordinate
quantities of the fish next summer at

shows that he intends te slaughter them

dor the water, when they will float dead
on the sutface ready to be scooped up.
The sportsmen intend te prevent him
somehow from doing it.
The art of utilizing castawaj boue*
of all kinds is carried to the extreme in
all continental cities, and in no European
to a higher dogreo than London. Sotn e
of them go immediately to the boiling
houses, where every portion of fat and
gelatine thoy can yield is extracted?
the former substance being bought by
the soap maker, and the latter is utilised
in making the patent preparations so
largely employed in cookery, eto. Tho
larger bones are used by the turners,
who convert thrm into a multitude of
serviceable articles. Fragments that
cannot be otherwise employed are
ground very fine and treated with
sulphuric acid, constituting a well-know n
artificial fertilizer. The lab that oomos
in the process of boiling is employed in
making tho commoner kinds of soap.
Tbo bones are then thrown into large
retorts, and subjected to destructive
distillation, the matter of the bone
being resolved into its conitituent ele
ments, from which new compounds are
formed. Some of these pass off in vapor
or gns, but tho fixed principles remain
in the retort, the product consisting of
the earthy and saline portion of the
bone, blackened by the carbon of the
animal matter, forming ivory-black, or
bone-black. One of the most valuable
products extracted Irom the bones, how
over, is phosphorus, which is produced
iu largo quantities in all the hone boil
ing and utilizing establishments. Iu
this country there are establishments
that will take any dead animal, turn it
into glue, phosphorus, fertilizing agents,

Utah is not the only place in the |
United States where a man may onjoy
a plurality of wives with impunity, al
though the process by which this pri
Tllege is obtained is not one calculated
to endangor tbo institution of monaga
my. Some years ago the house of a
New Zea lander named Ottdes WHS bum
?d by nutiros vrhiL- its owner was tern
poraily absent, and on his return ho
found, as he thought, the bon'3 ?f his
wife and children among the ruins.
11s thereupon sailed for California, and
after the lapse oT a few years married
again. But bio wife wus raptured, not
burned, by tho savages, and she had re
gained her liberty, when she mvla her
way to California, found her husband,
and by a mutual agreement became an
equal sharer with" tho "se-roud wife in
her husband's Amende ?u ho mi?ah ia
stance of feminine gonorosity only p.ir
died by the English and Saraco.i wife
of the old crusader. The family lived
contentedly enough, but their neighbors
were scandalised at thin pcrvonion and
reversion of Enoch Ardcu's case, and
they brought the matter before the
courts. The lair of California, however
declares that if a husband or wife is
separated from his or her consort for a
period of five years, and either party
marries again under the impression that
tho first consort is dead, the second mar
riage is not void except upon application
of eithor party during tho life of the
other. As the two wive* in the present
case are willing to live under one roof
aud as the husband is anxious to hare
them do fo, tho courts decline to
interfere, and so tho Neul?nder is a

An Old Lady AHtoniulzcd.
Mr. B., a well know Metropolitan

an old woman from the country, came to
the printing office with an old Bible in

(I want'said she -that you should

?Fifty Cents.'

When the old lady wunt out, he aent

'Lor' sokes a massa !' exclaimed the
old lady when she came to look at it,
'hoir good you have fixed it!' I never

OlrtcHt Fortification in America
The Spanish fort of San Juan de
Pinon, no* called Fort Marion, at St.
Augustine, Fla., ia the oldest fortifica
tion on the Western continent still used
as a place of defense. It covers about
an ucro of ground, and would accom
modate a garrison of 1,000 men, with
100 guns. It waa begun in 1520 and
completed* in 1756, the Indians being
compelled to do the labor of building.
Over the entrance is the Spanish coat
of arms and the name of the then Gover
nor, the ohief engineer of the works,
and the date of the completion of the
fort. In 1835 a dungeon was discover
ed by the caving of a wall from above,
and in it were two iron cages just large
enough to admit the body of a man,
and each contained a human skeleton.
Who the victims wore thore is no tradi
tion to tell. In one of the dungeons
Osceola was chained, previous to his
removal to Fort Moultrie. The fort is
non garrisoned by an old sergeant.
