. MADELINE'S FATE. ??Why, where is it!" criod.J2eaiiie, stop?; ping short within the door, Tier "big, opal eyes stretchod wide open in umazcmcnt. "Strange!'' said her mother from be hind. "Perhaps Fio has taken it some where," and sho "turned to Investigate the mystery-V" * -: .'" fir.; I % 71 ^'Strange indeed!" thought Pearlio, as sfco sat down on the side of the bed. "Dear 'me!" ,exelhirocd her : mother, eomihg in again in a frenzy of- anxiety, - "nobody knowa anything about it.'' i? i'-Womustlbok*,'' cried PeariTe', starting to her feet, fear taking possession, of her! heart in earnest. "It must be some where. . -Who ever heard of a wedding dress disappearing mysteriously an hour before the wedding.?.". But their search was all In vajn. Places possible and. impossible of concealment were ransacked, to no purpose. In no ? PearUo sat dovm on Vie side of (ho bed. wardrobe, drawer, or corner could the gretty, now wedding-dress bo found, earlie of course helped things along by sitting down and crying as though her heart would break. It had been quite an expensive wed ding-gown for rearlio, who was only the daughter of a "retired sea-captain, not any richer than the majority. But Pearllo was the idol of his heart, the younger of two girls, and " the baby," so tho captain had said: "Hoshould chooso her dress himself. Ho know what a weddln* rig 6hould be, for he'd seen .'em in furrin places. None of your cheap stuffs, but real silk and flowers, you sec." Then ho had delved deep into his ever ready purso, without a sign oi shrinking, that he might ut least sec his " little gal" in the real article ho covoted. ." Exquisite shell-flowers, too, with a real gem of a fan that ho had brought from 4-ho "West Indies, embellished tho toilet. Frank Ellison had run down to Cralg mofe in tho early summer, intenduig to make a brief sojourn, but tho "blue capped waves," he said, bewitched him, though everybody knew?as everybody does know in a small town?that a cer tain blue-capped damsel, known a3 Cap tain Gray's "middy," had bewitched h?n still more. And'now had como the wedding-day, ? and Captain Gray was about to relinquish this saucy little sailor of his, who was an epitomized etherealized edition of himself, into tho keeping o* a good-looking " city chap." Yos, tho wedding-day and hour had ar rived, and the bride sat mourning tho loss of hor woddlng-drcoS. : ?' "Well, Pearlie, there is no alternative; you will have to wear your white Swiss. The folks and minister will be here in no time. There Is one comfort?they all knew you had a lovely no*- dress, and it is too lato to delay the wedding., To think anyone would be mean enough to steal that, of all things?for it must have been 6tolon!" So, at tho appointed time, with this shadow oi annoyance and sad disappoint^ ment hovering. over them all, Pearlie stood up to bo married. ? Poor Captain Gray, sulky and out of sorts, Pearlie, lugubrious, and with, the suspicion of a pout on hor usually smiling rosy. lips. Perhaps the bridegroom was tho' only ono really happy, for at this particular period' Pearlie looked beautiful to him in any garb. . So the ceremony proceeded, and Pearlie ? was just beginning to get a little wearied. ? Suddenly "behind her sho heard n light rustle and stir, thon a surprised, murmur. Pearlieatonce very indecorously looked over her shoulder. -Upthrough the company camo n wild eyed, gipsy-faced woman, her scant black hair flying loosely about her us sho nod ded and smiled to right ar.d left. .Pearlie recognized her, as did every-, body else. It was tho crazy woman ut the village, known as "Wilil Mad." But what was she doing there? She had burst suddenly through the window from the piazza, and, strangest STie rcas Voicing to the bridegroom. of nil, she woro tho missing wedding dress ! Bcforo any ono could Interfere or realize tho Situation, sho had jostled in front of tho sober old minister, causing his re spectable gold-rimmed glasses to topple over his nose, and was Lowing to the bridegroom. "So you havo como back, dear?como back to marry mo. Glad to seo you. Ha! ha! ha! You havo mado a mistake, lady fair; you'ro in tho wrong place. Como away," dragging Pearlie from her lover's side; "you are tho bridesmaid, and I am the bride. Fiends! leave us! Would you take hlra from mo again? To tho ship, did you say? Ha! ha! ha! tho ship lies deep, deep down. You cannot reach it. -He came uproot, ofltto^day. Will he go,; too ? Ah, yes ;^to the ship?to the ship in' .theseal; Come,:come, you *andsl, to the ?ship away tmder the eea!" . . And amid her wild cries and muttorings tho poor daft creature was borno from the room, and the 6ervice at last finished. " Poor critter!" said the captain, three hours later, when they we'reseated quietly Jxigether, nnd tho borrowed wedding rai ment hadbeen secured and returned. ""'Taint very .often* Wild Mad takes to rampagiu'. She hain't now for three years, I guess, and that was when a -young sea-captain' come ashore here for a day to see some friends. Sho tackled him just aselie did you, Frank. You see, she's always fancyin'-somebody's Harry Lambert, the young ship-mate she gotso in- love with long ago. But she always quiets right down, they say, .after one of thoso-spells?" . "Harry Lambert, a ship-mate, did you say?"-cried Frank, starting at the name. "Yes, havo you heard of him? A mighty nice boy. I x'emember all tho affair very well. Ma'deUue Earle?that's Mad, you-know?was a 'bright,, pretty girl,' but there was insanity in the family. . "Well, young Lambert' came herb to visit just.'as you did, my son, and some how thori lwo: was together a great deal, but I'guess Harry never fell just in lovo with her?liked her company, you know, and so on, but she got wrapped up In him, and he determined to marry her, though ho didn't like her mother being crazy. " Well, tho marriage was the talk of the town, and things was goln* on smooth enough, when all of a sudden Harry dis appeared ? and never canio back. Mad, she took on awful, and then she fell to niopin', and finally lost her mind entirely. ? "-Dayafter day, and night after, night they'd: have to watch her, for she would walk up and down the sands, looking out to 6ea, or hide away in tho rocks some where for days, watching the ships sail ing by. .. "At last we got news that his vessel had gona down, and ho was among the lost; and not long after an old sailor came he :e with some letters which Harry For she would icalk vp and down the sands. had written and give to him, as ho was coming homo a passage ahead, of him. One was to his mother, and tho other to poor Mad. "In the last ho spoko of the message ho had sent her when he come away, say in' he was sorry that ho had to leave so sudden but he had boon unexpectedly ordered aboard. "Then ho said he hoped she would wait Eatlently for him, for he would surely bo omo again in two months. Poor lad! Whatever hod become of tho message wo never knew, but poor Mad has been a de mented critter ever since." As tho captain finished, Frank spoke through tho hushed, sad silonco that fol lowed. "It is strango," he said. "I have often wondered over the rumors of my cousin's love affair, .for. Harry Lambert was my own .cousin.'' ?!He,warn t, now !" exclaimed tho cap tain bluntly. . "Yes.; but all this happened when 1 was quite a lad. I never kiv: ? just where this Madeline lived, but I remember hear ing about tho story. I am told I greatly resemble him, and that accounts for poor Mad's raving to-day." Tho rosy rays ;rrom the setting sun shone across tho crested waves,'and fell " Why, w'laCs that he's a haulm' out of it f" fin shafts of brilliant light upon thosandy Ibeach, whero she had played In her rol | licking childhood, and dreamed in hor happy girlhood, as Pearlie drove to tho little depot, whence she was to bo con veyed from this homo amid blue sky and sunny sea to the turbulent big city. To bo sure she was to return every month or two for long visits, but never theless the separation nearly broke Pearlie's soft little heart. So tho captain and she had nearly smothered themselves In their parting embraces. "There's "Bimleck Finley, drawin' in his flshin' boat. Why, what's that he's la haulin' out of it?" ho exclaimed, his attention now arrested. "Looks mighty like somo one he's pulled out of Davy's I Locker. Joe, what's going on thero?" t The boy addressed came running up t with an awestruck face. "It's Wild Mad. She's drownod her self, sir," ho answered. I "How you talk!'' exclaimed Captain Gray. And presently the men camo past them, bearing their drenched lifeless burden. Yes, it was Indeed so. Foor Mnd had at last gonoon that fatal search for tho "ship away under the soa." Tho once bright rosy face was now cold and white in the repose of death. " Well, she's gone at last to meet him," said Captain Gray huskily, as they drove on again. "Those 6hinia' waters havo taken 'em both. They'll meet ?they'll meet?somewhero on tho other side." _ ' jgh ?'8T0RY* OF WALLT8TREET. ii^?nai^.iClMlr*a Knu of took?Arnualn '?^f- . Ttr?thcT?lder Stroet Men. [Brooklyn Eacle.l* So many stories are told about the risa of men in Wall street 'that they seldom attract as much attention,now as they did years'ago, when speculation .was carried on with caution. One of the most amus ing specimens of -Wall street men is to he seen every day on his way to the "street" in a brougham of his own, with a magni ficent team of bays ana an English coach man on the box. Within the brougham sits the speculator, leaning forward on hin caue and looking thoughtfully- "ul his well gioved hands. He has a pale and almost effeminate face, and his manner is reserved and austere. He is very much more exclusive and-ele I gant in the matter of personal enjoyment, 24 years old, and in deportment more dig nified than Mr. Gould, Mr. Connor, or Henry Clews?most of whom go up and down in the elevated, or in yellow cabs. This young man had charge of a cer tain department of ?. civets in a firm on Worth street, aud made all the way from $15 to.y-:~> a week. . He lived in a board ing house on Twenty-second street, on terms of special friendship with the land lady. His father had performed the mar riage ceremony for. the landlady in earlier years, and she kept her eye otf the clergy man's son, and fca him dutifully, for $8 a week. He had always "played" tho bucket shops, and often made, very tidy little winnings. ' ? The landlady had raised $4,000 during her many years of keeping boarders, and was about to devote it to paying off a mortgage on her house, when the solemn little clergyman's son succeeded inper suading her to invest some of ii In Wall street She was a cautious woman, and agreed to let him have ? *2U0 every Mon day morning for five successive weeki This is not a great amount of money, but he happened to catch . the market as it ? rose, and he is with, it yet His profits the first two weeks were enormous, aud the landlady threw all her money Into the pooL Now ho is living in bachelor's cham bers In the Cumberland, dines regularly at Delmonico's and lives in a state of mag nificenco suitable to a millionaire The older Wall street men arc immensely amused at the spectacle, for they say that a single slump of the market will wipe him out of existence as completely as though he had never lived. New Anecdote of Lincoln, pen: Perley Tooro.) Mr. Lincoln was found one momlng'by a visitor counting several small piles of greenbacks on his table "This, sir," said he, noticing tho gentleman's surprise, "is something out of my usual line. But a presidont of the United States has a multiplicity of duties not specified ?d the constitution or the acta of congress. This is one of them. This money belongs to a poor negro who is a porter in the treas ury department, and is at present very sick with the small-pox. (He did .not catch it from me, however; at least, I think not). He is now in the haspital, and could not draw his pay because he could not sign his name I have been at considerable trouble to overcome the di.'li culty and get his money for him, and have at length succeeded in cutting red tape, as the newspapers say. I am now dividing his money and putting by a por tion in an envelope, labeled with his name, along with my own funds, accord ing to his wish " And so he did?folded it carefully and locked it up in a safe, where neither moth3 nor rust would corrupt, nor tkteV^ break through and Bteal?thus resolving himself into a savings bank for tho benefit of a helpless sufferer.

FOOD WASTED IN HOTEL KITCHENS. sjLt&tlals That'ar^^Novor^Co^unzed ?Delicacies That oxo Thrown Away. The proprietor of a fashionable city restaurant calls attention to the enor mous waste of excellent food in establish ments like his own, as well as in hotels, first-class , boarding-houses, ? ancL' many private houses. His estimate is that fully one-third of all the food prepared is wasted. Of boiled hams, legs bfj mutton, and tongues, only the finest slices are placed before guests. Theiike--is true of roast game, beef, pork, , and mutton. ? t Large bunches-of celery are bought each j .norni;:g in the markets, but only the j best stalks are placed on the j ?able; and of fliese only the j .:hokest parts are ordinarily_ eaten. Asa j rule, not one person in ten eat all of any J sind of food that is ordered. If three chops .are served, one, is left untouched. | Some, will take half n. dozen grapes from ! i large cluster, and leave the. rest. The ; rumaiuder are not in a condition to place on the table agai: i. Many patrons of res raurants, more eiipeciaily ladies, call for a ;jlate of ossorttd cako. They break a small piece.- froiu each kind, eat that .which best pleases them, and leave tho ?emainder. This broken cake, though ;ostly and excellent, can not be served igairi. Many parts of loaves of cake are ?icver sold for the .reason that they havo become somewhat dry and inclined to grumble, pV.licacie8.that are thrown aw at. j Tlie like is true of loaves of bread of all 'linos. In every large restaurant there ire daily left hundreds of broken rolls, buns, biscuit, and fried cake3, as well as dices of excellent bread. Ordinarily, no aarson eats more than half the cheese that is served to him, but as the slice is broken it can not bo served again. Many, order small pofs of jelly, jam, or pre jorye. take out one or two spoonful a and leave the rest. Tho Whole is paid for and ?md the restaurant keeper loses nothing, but a co3tly delicacy that would be very valuable to some poor invalid is thrown ?i\vi?y. The daiiy waste in tho kitchen of a jiyot restaurant, hotel, or fashionable ?v-.'.rding-} ouso, is very large. Evory te?ft, chop, and cutlet is trimmed before i is broiled. The projecting portions of V moat and the fat are cut off and or ?narily thrown away. Some pieces are ?lightly scorched in cooking, and these ;re thrown aside. Often three or four cinds of soup or chowder are prepared, i:ilf of which remains unsold. The quan ?! y of cooked pens, beans, potatoe5,aud va -ious kind-; of vegetables left aftcrdinner :s ordinarily very large. With every large roast there is something like a quart of rich drippings that would be very valuable .'or poor families to use in cooking pota -oes and other vegetables or to employ as shortening. Large quantities of rich ,'ravies are left over from moals. Many fggB boiled in the shell are returned to he kitchen. This restaurant-keeper states that it is -.ho usual practice to dump all these ort oles into a barrel, which is taken away once each day, and the' contents fed to !>iga. The price received for this pig-food is very small. The waiters, cooks, and titoheu girls like this way of disposing of .vhat they will waste, because it saves ?rouble. To save all the different articles shat would be regarded as excellent food iu many families, or even considered lux ories, would require much work during rke most busy portions of each day.

It would ?:,rtainly seem that some person could de rise and put in execution a plan for uti lising all this valuable and excellent food hat now goes into the stomachs of pigs, in Paris, it is suid, there are places in which broken food is offered for sale. .Many persons who practice light house-, keeping patrouiza these .establishments and obtain from them most of their food. Many families that are fairly well-to-do purchase the scraps of raw and. cooked neat, for tho purpose of making soup. . In London the Sisters of Mercy. are lllowed to take nil the waste of certain hotels and restaurants. They keep some one constantly in the kitchen, who saves ill the scraps as well us the articles that are returned from the dining-rooms. These are carefully sorted, and put in covered baskets. The soups, chowders, and gravies are. placed in cans or buckets. At night n covered wagon comos and takes diem away. Some of the articles are -,akcn to hospitals and asylums, the others' ire distributed among the deserving sick md poor. The. work of collecting, remov ing, and distributing this food is con lucted in a manner so careful and orderly that no trouble is caused.? Jkicugo Times. rho Ohle' Source of Acoustical Defects. Some of the most eminent architeots are of the opinion that the chief source of acoustical defocts in a hall is the reflec tion of sound waves In suoh a way that they strike upon the ear of the hearer within a certain interval after the direct waves, and arc recognized ob an echo or resonance. It is asserted, In regard to the limits within which this point exerts i disturbing influence, that a difference of sixteen add one-half to twenty-throe toet not only causes no disturbance, but, under, some circumstances, may produce favorable re-enforoement of the direct by tho reflected sound, and that with dimin ished intensity the difference may be somewbui greater, but undor no circum stances should it oxceed thirty-three feet, fn regard to the acoustic conditions of churches, it is asserted that tho ceilings, which in theatres help the effect In tbo appor tjors, in churchos are too high for thU, and may produce resonance, or echo, and that it iB, therefore, necessary to dif fuse the sound reflected from them.
