SAVED FEOM HIS LOYE. / - ; Reginald Vaughan, journalist, was smoking a solitary midnight pipe in his chambers when there was a knock at the door. He looked up without rising from his chair. "Hullo, Ensor!" he said, "come in. Where have you been?" His visitor was a young man in evening dress, an old Cambridge friend, and now also engaged in earning an imaginary income at the bar and an actual one by his pen. "Been to the theater," he answered, "and thought I would look you up on my way home. Why, that's the matter with you?" he continued, a3 c he leisurely took off his great coat, and filled a pipe. "You're looking as melancholy as if you, instead of myself, had been witnessing the performance of a modern English farce." The gloom on Vaughan's face deep? ened. "Tha^s the matter," he an? swered ' laconically, pointing to a bulky envelope which lay on his writing table. "You don't mean to say that your editor has sent back some of your work?" said the other, as he moved toward the table. "Worse, much worse," said Vaughan, with infinite path 03 in his voice. "Why, it's Mabel Lawrence's writ ingl Your lady love sends you lengthy letters, Vaughan. Or is it merely a collection of your own ele? gant epistles' which she now returns to you with scorn ? I believe there's some sense in that girl, after all!" . "Sit down, Ensor, and don't be a fool. Of course it isn't that; we are to bo married next month. She is a dear, nice girl?but she has lately conceived the notion that she can write, and sends me reams of the most impossible copy, begging me, if t love her?which, of course, I do ?to get them used. What on earth .am I to do?" "I see; she is one of the modern young ladies who look upon litera? ture as a pleasant alternative to crochet work. The Englishman Is supposed to say: 'It is a fine day; let us kill.' The Englishwoman un? doubtedly does remark: 'It is a wet dayj lei us create.' Hence the femi? nine novel; which, by the way, has almost ceased to be novel, and would scorn to be thought feminine. And 80 Mabel is afflicted with an attack of modernity?" "Not in the least. She is, thank goodness, quite free from that taint. She would rather read a blue book than a yellow book, I fancy. This is called % a /Domestic Drama.'" Vaughan got up and drew a bulky 'roll of manuscript from the envel? ope. "AH the worse," said his friend. "If the stuff were only slightly im? moral and wholly decadent we could place it easily enough, however badly it is written. But a wife who pre? fers the poetry of domestic drama to the prose of the domestic dinner table cannot be expected to provide very attractive food, bodily or men? tal. My best advice to . you, Vaughan, which I know you won't take, is to back out of your engage? ment as quickly as possible. She can hardly love you much if she pesters you in this way. Depend upon it, she looks upon you only as a medium whereby her? productions may find their way into print." '"You're talking bosh, my dear fellow," replied Vaughan. "She does love me; indeed, the tragic part of is. that she has written these things because she thinks that we ought to have all interests in com? mon, and that, as she puts it, 'we shall thus be fellow workers.' In? stead of making jokes about it, for heaven's sake tell me what I am to do. I daren't send It back and tell her it is worthless?that would break her heart. And yet no paper could print the stuff." "Is it so bad as that?" asked En? sor. "I didn't know that anyone had attained to writing down to that level in these days. Let us hear some of it." "No; I'm not going to read it?I haven't the courage to. You can study it for yourself if you like. It is a compound of every possible fault in grammar and expression, and its story is too terribly inane." Ensor took the manuscript, glanced through a few pages, and struggled nobly to suppress his smiles, while Vaughan thrust out his legs toward the fire and smoked moodily. "Well,"said Ensor at length, toss iug the MS. aside, "it is certainly ,the most awful rubbish. Seriously, iby far the kindest thing you can do is to tell the young lady frankly that she can never, by any possibility, succeed fn literature. Why don't you do this?" The other shook his head mourn? fully. "I can't," he said. "First, she sent me some verses, worse even than this story, and those I did send |back. Next came what was meant for a humorous article. That also I returned, though it made her rather angry. And, wishing to de? fend myself without hurting her feelings, I explained that people were so busy reading fiction in these days that there is no market for poetry or humorous articles. It wasn't that, of course; but I thought it would serve as an innocent ex? cuse. So now she has sent this, be? cause I told her, she says, that there was no difficulty in finding an open? ing for good fiction." "Your obvious reply is that those very words condemn the chances of this, precious production." "She'd never forgive me if I said that. I must get the thing pub? lished somehow. What on earth am I to do?" His friend reflected-for some min? utes in silence. Then a curious smile came over his face. "Clearly, my dear Vaughau, the thing is hope? less as it stands. But if you are de? termined to get it published, the jmlywayls to rewrite it entirely." "Yds, that might do," said Vaughan, "but wouldn't Mabel be offended if we tampered with her work?" "Not half so much as if you sim? ply returned it as worthless. The joy of seeing her name in print will quite atone for everything. Come along; hand me over a pencil and a piece of paper and we will start at once. We won't make more cbauges than, are necessary, but just put a little flavoring of humor and cyni? cism, and brighten up the whole thing a bit, and then I'll undertake to get Johnson (of the Sentinel, you know) to publish it." "It's awfully good of you," said Vaughan. "I don't see that I can do anything else. And I can put down the necessity for the changes we make to the uneducated taste of the British public. But I'll leave the alterations to you?I haven't the heart for the work." "Very well, but don't say any? thing to Mabel about it till the thing ispublished. Just tell her that it has been accepted, and she will be per? fectly happy." "Now I wonder," remarked Ensor to himself on his way home, "whether this is selfishness or altruism. Sure? ly it is altruism;- for Vaughan isn't a bad fellow, but he will hate me like poison for at least a year after this. So I am really sacrificing myself in order to prevent his marrying that atrocious girl) whose taste is as de? fective as her grammar. Anyhow, I'll make those alterations to-mor? row, and I think, Eeginald Vaughan, my boy, that they will save you from the horrors* of matrimony." , Some three weeks later Vaughan found the following letter on his breakfast table: . "No. TOO, Queen's Gate, S. W.?Dear Mr. Vaughan: I nave ?een to-day the copy of tho Sentinel, which contains what purports to bo lay story. You wUl hardly be surprised, I think, to learn that you are henceforth to con? sider our engagement as absolutely broken off. You win hardly b9 surprised, I say, tor this was evidently your purpose in turning my story into ridicule, as you have dona But you might, 1 think, have found a more gentlemanly way ot doing this. You have put vulgar eomlo speeches into the mouths ot my pathetic char? acters; you have turned my hero into a cow? ardly cynic, and my heroine into a modern ad? venturess. In short, you have made me. figure as the author of a disgusting, modern and wicked tale, Instead of a true romance. "Please do not trouble to answer this note; I shaU burn any letters you send me unread. Aud the servants have orders not to admit you to -;tis house in future. BeUeve me, yours truly, Mabel Lawrence. " ?London Black and White. Names of Japanese Ships. It is the custom of the Japanese to acid to the names of their ships of war the word Kan, a term which is of Chinese origin and means war vessel, and their warships are always spoken of in this way, as: Naniwa Kan, Hashidate Kan, etc. In a similar manner.the word Maru Is added to the names of merchant vessels, as Omi Maru, Yamashiro Maru. The word is of obscure ori? gin. It is believed to be a corrup? tion of Maro, "an archaic term of endearment." The meaning and origin of names given to Japanese war vessels are of interest. Matsushlma is one of the Sankei, or "three views of Japan," and has been famous from earliest times. It is a beautiful archipelago on the coast, which can be described in the meaning of the words: "Pine tree-Islan d." Ituskushima and Hasih idate are islands famous for their beauty. Naniwa is the ancient name for the province in which the old capital, Kyoto, Is situated. Takachiho is a southern mountain, on the summit of which the first mikado, Jimmu Tenno, is supposed to have alighted wheu ho descended from Heaven. Yoshino is a wild mountainous tract of country, in which is situated a town of the same name, celebrated for its sakura (the flowering cherry) trees, said to number one thousand. Akagi and Hiyei are names of moun? tains.?Harper's Weekly. Cows In Clover." The duchess of Hamilton is quite devoted to cows, and has just de? signed and had built for them a lovely marble house to dwell la. It has beautiful tiled floors and marblo water tanks, and cost a great deal of money. The duchess also makes butter and cheese with her own hands, and Is quite an adept at handling the fickle churn. For milk? ing the cows, which is one of her special pleasures, sho has invented 'Soft hair gloves'. TEE NEW EIFLE. It Is the Best Magazine Gun for Army Use Now Known. An Improved Copy of the Danish Weapon. ?How the Rlflo Works?Smokeless Powder Is Used?Easily Taken Apart Wli:hout Tools. The new Infantry rifle is similar to the arm now used by the Danish gov? ernment, but so altered and im? proved as to make it the best mag? azine gun for army use now known. The Krag-Jorgen sen or United States infantry rifle, model 1892, is a magazine gun with a caliber of .30 ol! an inch, or .15 of an inch smaller than that of the Springfield rifle now in use. The new rifle is slightly shorter than the Springfield. The breech is opened and closed by a sliding bolt operated by a handle and knob at its rear end. The magazine is a horizontal one, lying under the receiver of the barrel, and closed by a gate at its right side. Part of the barrel, where it is grasped by the left hand in firing, is covered with wood. This is necessary, for the barrel becomes very hot from the extreme rapidity of fire. The han? dle at the rear cud of the bolt, and a lug at its front end, fit into grooves and lock the bolt when the breech is closed. On Its exterior the bolt car? ries the extractor, while inside is the firing pin and spiral mainspring. The magazine holds five cartridges, which are pressed forward by means of a follower acted upon by a spring, so that the cartridges are placed ono by one in front of the bolt. The magazine can be instantly filled from a "quick-loading" box holdiug five cartridges. "When the bolt is drawn to the rear, the cartridge just fired is withdrawn by the hook of the ex? tractor, and thrown clear of the gun by an ejector at the bottom of the receiver. At the same time a fresh "Cartridge from the magazine is placed in front of the bolt. The bolt is then shoved forward, placing the cartridge in the barrel, and at the same time cocking the firing pin, so that the piece is ready for firing. On the left side of the piece is a "cut-off," by means of which the cart? ridges in the magazine can be held in reserve until the proper moment, and in the meantime .the piece can be used as a single-loader. The cartridges are bottle-shaped. The bullet weighs only half as much as that of the Springfield, and is fired j with nearly double the muzzle veloc- j Ity, giving greater range and accu- | racy. The powder used is of tho smokeless variety, so as not to ob? scure the view of the soldier and not to obstruct the small bore of the gun. The bayonet is simply a long knife, so that it is useful off as well as on the gun. One important feature of tho new rifle is that in one minute's time, without the assistance of any tools, it can be completely taken apart, any broken pa rt replaced, and then it can as quickly be put together again.?Harper's Weekly. SUGAR A REMEDY. It Will Cure Hiccoughs Where Other Things Fail. "Why don't you stop that hic? coughing?" asked a man of a friend, who was convulsed with the annoy- \ log convulsions in the street near the Astor house the other day. "S':op them?" gulped the other, I "I?I?wish 1 could. Held my breath?fifteen minutes?drank nine swallows?water; nine times. Tried to?scare myself; make believe? lost my watch. No good. They I won't go." "Will you buy if I cure them for you?" asked the first speaker, laugh? ing at the frequent Interruptions in j his friend's description of his troubles. The other gasped In the affirmative reply, and the two en- ! tered the rotunda. "Giv? this man a heaping bar spoonful of powdered sugar," said tho friend to the barkeeper. The man did so. "Now swallow it," con? tinued the speaker to the vic? tim of hiccoughs. The latter essayed to do so and succeed? ed after some little effort, for it is not an easy matter to swallow a mouthful of powdered sugar. When he mastered it he looked inquiringly at his friend. "Well, where are your hiccoughs now?" remarked the other with a smile, "They seem to have gone," he re? plied, "but they'll come backagain, I suppose, after a little while." "If they do," said the friend, "it will be the first case I know of where powdered sugar has failed to give relief for hiccoughs. If one spoon? ful of sugar won't do it two certain? ly will. So far as I know it's a posi? tive remedy."?N. Y. Herald. Sea Otters Are Worth Money. Mr. W. Scoggin, who has been over on .the coast of Washington, above Gray's harbor, on a hunting trip, found a number of Indians en? gaged in shooting sea otters.

A Find Which May Throw Light on tho Poopllng of T ills Continent, There will shortly be presented to the savants of Europe and America a relic of antiquity rescued from the dust of the dim dawn of human life in tho western world, which promises to at once '.throw light on the origin of man on the western hemisphere and prove the open scsamo to further reading of the early races of the earth in tho far east. In a roclc-hcwn tomb in southern Mexico there has been found a bronze and hammered iron sword bearing on Its blade and handle in rich inlaying of silver characters of record and rep? resentations of life distinctively As? syrian and Grecian. The characters on one side of the blade arc cuneiform, says a writer In the .'5t. Louis Globe Democrat; those on the other cannot be identified; possibly they are Hittite. The first, fourth, sixth, eighth and eleventh letters in the easily recogniz? able cuneiform characters of Chaldean antiquity are exactly alike as graven upon the blade; the first, fourth, sixth, eighth and eleventh letters in the mystic inscription on the reverse are also identical. It is In the possession oi Senor Gpnzale M. Moliner, a de? scendant of one of the oldest and most illustrious farailier of Spain, who is resident in the City of Mexico. Ho will soon lay it before the Smithsonian Institution in person, and until that time it will not 'see the light of re? search outside of Mexico. The sword and its scabbard of bronze are massive and we'll preserved. In total length the 'sword in twenty-six and one-half inches, with a blade cf nineteen inches. The roughly hammered iron blade shows the crudity of the early days of the iron age, but the exquisite inlaying of silver oa the bronze bears testimony to the cunning of the silversmiths who wrought the weapon. To all appear? ances, and according to the inscrip? tions, it was a royal arm, for on its ample hilt it bears in horizontal lines the crowned head of its evident ?wearer, while below, in cuneiform 'characters on tho blade, are apparently the title and name oi the sovereign. .The sword and scabbard weigh twelve pounds, of which the sword alone rep? resents two-thirds of the total. . The story of the discovery of this in? teresting relic is a romance. Seven years ago a curiosity dealer in tho City of Mexico purchased it for a few paltry 'reals from an ignorant Indian from Merida, in the state of Yucatan, in southern Mexico. The dealer supposed it to be n othing more than an old Roman sword, such as were often worn by tho Spaniards at tho time of the conquest of Mexico. The Indian said he found it in the depths of a tomb which ho had penetrated, and that, with a bronze spoon, now also in the posses? sion of Senor Moliner, it was the only I thing of interest he had found. Tho [ sword and scabbard were incrusted with . half an inch of oxidization from their long burial, and on being ! cleaned up were offered for sale to tourists along with the customary 'more or less valuable stock in trade of an enterprising curio dealer. For one I reason or another it remained in stock until recently, when ? it by ohance caught the eye of Senor Moliner, who has made an intelligent study of an? tiquities, both in Europe and America, and who :.t once bought it at a curio sale price._ HIS BIG RED EARS. They Prevented Hlca from Making a Good Match. Nothing is so hostile to romance aa ridicule. This truth was strikingly il? lustrated in the case of a college friend of my own. He was a good-looking young fellow, but had, unfortunately, been gifted by nature with a large and red pair of I ears, which stood out from his head in a distressing fashion, says a writer in I Answers. His sweetheart's young I brothers chafed her unmercifully ; about this peculiarity of her lover's. They compared his ears to Chinese j fans, and talked up some preposterous , story of one of the old travelers about an African race whose ears were so large that they used to wrap them? selves up in them during inclement I weather. They insinuated that, their j sister's lover was the sole surviving member of that race. Absurd as it may seem, their foolish talk resulted in a broken, engagement. A Rival to nubber. It is one of the remarkable facts of existence that when a substance that has hitherto been deemed indispens? able fails us, there are others brought out almost immediately that appear not only to take its place but to far ex? ceed it in utility and tho range of use? fulness. A new material, bearing tho name of cellulose, is said to be com? posed of exactly the same elements as starch.- It will absorb any color, takes polish readily, may bo turned in a lathe or rolled into Hat sheets of any desired thickness and stamped into plates, pans, trays, boxes, book-covers or almost anything of a similar char? acter. Made liquid and used as a size, it is admirable as waterproofing and has a thousand uses that could not be found in rubber. It is said to be ex? ceedingly tenacious and will be a per? fect substitute for glue. As the rubber crop has not in all particulars been satisfactory, this new material will be hailed with enthusiasm by consumers who appreciate high-clas3 productions at reasonable prices. An Experiment in Cooperation. . Agneta Park, near Delft, in Holland, is the result of an interesting experi? ment in cooperation. A tract of ten acres has upon it one hundred and fifty houscR, each with its little garden and with certain common buildings and common grounds. The houses are oc? cupied by tho employes of a great dis? tilling company, who form a corpora? tion which owns the park. Each mem? ber owns shares in the corporation and pays rent fcr his house; the surplus after expenses are paid comes back to him as dividends. If he wishes to go away or dies Iiis shares arc bought up by the corporation and sold to the man, who takes his place. A BAKE OLD MISSAL. Romantio History of an Ancient Volume Now in California. It Was Er ought Over the Ocean by Co? lumbus and Again by Cortez?A Trcasarod Relic of the Lato Gov. Plo rioo. Under lock and key, in the state li? brarian's office at Sacramento, is a vol? ume worth more than twice its weight in gold, says the San Francisco Chroni? cle. Six centuries have rolled by since the pious Fra Ambrosius sat in his monastic studio and mixed the watery blue, the pale green and startling1 crimson hues with which he illuminated thi3 ancient missal. lie devoted one year to the labor of copying, with microscopic ex? actness, the Latin prayers, the calen? dar of the saints and hymns of praise on selected parchment leaves. In the Introduction he wrote in Latin; "I have entered upon this work with a consciousness of my shortcomings and sinful impulses, which render me un? worthy of so honorable a task, but after much fasting and prayer I have been guided by an inner voice which bids me to write." The history of this missal is full of romantic interest. The monastery in which Fra Ambrosius worked was broken up, and the book over which he had spent so many weary days passed into the possession of a sailor named Eodrigo dc Triana, who shipped on the Santa Maria when Christopher Colum? bus started on. his voyage of discovery to the new world. Returning with the great admiral on his second voyage, De Triana married a native woman, and endeavored to carry the message of the cross to the people whom he had adopt? ed as his kindred. Iiis success as a mis? sionary is problematical. The missal, however, was kept by his children, and when the Spanish padres began to doch to the heathen Ghores that Co? lumbus iiad given to Castile, a priest bought the volume and made in it a note of the fact and the date. The discovery of such a work in the hands of the natives, made a strong impres? sion on the missionary, and he investi? gated its history, making o report to the head of Iiis order in Barcelona, at the same time forwarding the missal. The little volume, with its check chives of the Barcelona convent until Cortez fitted out his expedition to the land of the Montezumas, taking as his chaplain the pious Father Olmodo. Be? fore Olmcdo set out on the dangerous voyage the bishop of Barcelona gave him his blessing, some good advice and this missal. So armed, the chap? lain sailed away to the overturning '?f the dread deity Quetzalcoatl whom the dwellers of Anahuac worshiped. The bloody wars of the conquest placed the banner of the cross over tho ruins of tho teocallis and mode Cor? tez the governor of New Spain. Father Olmcdo soon after presented to Cortez the now historic missal, as a founda? tion for a library by the conqueror, and in his diary made mention of the travels and adventures through which he had passed. Cortez afterwards took up his residence in Cayoacan, one of the- suburbs of the present City of Mexico, and carefully preserved the book for a number of years. When this Cayoacan establishment was broken up, the conqueror gave the missal to the Franciscan Brothers, who were then waxing rich and strong in the new world. One 01 their number brought it to San Francisco in- tho early days of the gold excitement, and it passed into the possession of the lato Gov. Pio Pico. When the state library became an established fact Gov. Pico gave the book to the institution, whero it now remains. The missal is a fine specimen of il? lumination. It contains one hundred .and seventy pages of carefully-painted contents. The gold letters are mado of gold leaf firmly gummed to tho parchment. The frontispiece is a gem of medieval art It represents the crucifixion, with Mary and Martha (who aro given a slightly Japanese cast of features) standing at the foot of the cross. In the background a river flows, on the other side of which arc seen several edifices that are archi? tectural curiosities. This Interesting volume is valued at two thousand dollars. Mountains Disappearing. M. de Lapparent, the eminent pro? fessor of geology at tho institute of Paris, in a paper read before the Scien? tific Catholic congress, expressed tho opinion that all mountains will vanish off the face of the earth in course of time. He declared that, if the actual natural forces at work upon our globe retain their present intensity, in four and a half million yer.rs all inequali? ties of surface will bo leveled. lie in? stanced as a striking example the re? duction of the Ardennes, which were once a chain of the Alps, but which had already shrunk to their present dimensions at the outset of the tertiary epoch. Tho Alps, ho said, exemplified the youth, the Pyrenees tho maturity, and the mountains of Provence the de? clining years of mountain ranges, while the central plateau of Franco was typical of their death and dissolu? tion. Ho adduced other arguments in support of his thesis?namely, the lev? eling of the earth's surface in a given number of cycles?and paid an eloquent tribute to the labors of the geologists who read the records of life upon the earth before the advent of man. Hungary's Thousandth Year. Tho Hungarians arts making prepara? tions on a grand scale for a millennial exhibition, and the government/ at Prague has addressed a prayer to Em? peror Francis Joseph, at Vienna, that ho might lend thorn all tho historio relics in his possession which may havo any connection with Hungarian his? tory. The emperor has granted the re? quest, and relics valued at two million florins will shortly be. forwarded to Prague. SOUTHERN RAILWAY CO.
