of my f; i. is'.o, ii!a!:ingan ( nga'jonient

and diicefed my oouivo to o:ie of tho
quiet quarter:; of the rity in which my
hotel .ivi :;ituat d. Tho less frequent
the hazur.-; and show windows hecame
so much more insignificant hecame the
number of foot pa:;.;cnger.s on the
streets. IJut it seemed to me a much
moro .stylish looking part of tho city
than tho public drives of the central
portion, because here tho high, grave
looking houses were either govern
ment ollices or were inhabited by city
oliiciaLs or wealthy private citizens.
rrfore. me walked for some distance
a young anil elegantly attired lady.
At a curve of tho street I succeeded in
getting a Hooting glimpse of her pro
file, and felt myself thereby urged to
observe carefully even tho knot of
of golden blonde, sunshiny hair, half
covered by tho dark Kngiish hat, as
veil as the extremely delicate, grace
ful figure of the still youthful girl.
Suddenly her step faltered, she half
turned, lingered for a moment, and
then walked hastily towards me, past
mo, and back over tlio road by which
she had just come. Not far ahead of
tis came sauntering along an oilicer,
with a lady on his arm, gayly chatting
and laughing. Could they have fright
ened my Unknown? A saddened in
terest stirred within me ; I wished to
gain some insight into her strange
0 conduct, and therefore made a hasty
in --'lowing her and keeping only
, f.jj iZi jfcTaw how she pressed tho
.Ir' M hand passionately to her
deJolut"fth.1? :th tcai's in hev violet
tbrvakc f"1'aa sad, half scornful ex
vron't b i 'liarmureil something to hcr
.hich my excited imagination
-Mixicicd to bo: "O, foolish heart, why
art thou not quiet; whv mounts the
blood to my cheek, and compels me
to turn back lest J betray myself "
The childish ebullition moved mo
unconsciously, and a feeling of jeal
ousy stole over me ag'ainst that oliicer
whom I had involuntarily thought of
in connection with this young girl. If
I had only dared to adarcss her; but
that I could not bring myself to do.
She evidently belonged to the first
class of society, and nothing was fur
ther from my thoughts than a desire
to insult or intrude upon her. Uut
fortune favored mo. A small package
which she had hitherto carried slipped
from her arm without her having re
marked it. Quickly 1 picked it up and
gave it back to its fair owner, with a
lew polite words. She looked at me
with a surprised, somewhat haughty
glance, as I remained standing before
her rather longer than was absolutely
necessary. Her large, violet, childlike
eyes were still filled with tears, and
the delicate face was deathly pale.
"I thank you," she said, briefly, tak
ing the package from my hand. 13ut
I did not allow myself to be dismissed
thus quickly.
"You are not well, my dear young
lady," said I. "'Will you not com
maud my services if"
Something in my voice, perhaps also
xny quiet, respectful manner, seemed
to inspire her with confidence. She
looked nt me with wonder in her
eautiful, tearful eyes, and said, less
curtly than hef ore :
"ou are very kind, sir; I would
like to have a droschke."
I howed, and, while she stood at the
window of a flower store, I hurried
doWn the street and soon found an
empty vehicle, in which I joyfully and
with a gentle feeling of expectation of
what would happen next, drove back
to my little Unknown.
Meanwhile she had regained her
self command; only her hand ye
trembled as she in entering the car
riage laid it lightly in mine, and it
felt ice cold through her glove.
"Your residence?" I asked. She
named one of the elegant streets in
tho west end, and as I called the ad
dress to tho coachman I knew how
certain I would be not to forget it my
self. I closed the carriage tloor; she
then bowed her lovelv head at the open
window and thanked mo for my ser
vice; but she spoke confusedly,and i:i
Jier embarrassment her palo checks
colored with a rosy blush, so that she
opXeared even much moro charming
than before.
'2Icy I call to-morrow and inquire
after your health?" I ventured to ask;
but she seemed taken by surprise at
tlio question, and hesitated to answer,
while the blush deepened on her
cheek.
"Ilil" cried the coachman at this
moment ; the horse started otf, and a:;
I stepped again on the sidewalk tho
vehicle was already rattling away.

Luly. I was a liddlo to myself; how
ever, I mado tho firm resolve to find
out by to-morrow soma particulars
about this new street acquaintance.
A few hours later I sat with a num
ber of pleasant friends in one of the
bet restaurants under the lindens.
Tho conversation was lively and cheer
ful, and there were many ladies and
gentlemen continually going in and
out..
lit tho neighborhood of the table at
which wo sat and mado ourselves
merry was gathered a largo party,
jooi'..sund gay like ours.
Some young girlish faces before us
having attinctod me, 1 involuntarily
looked around for my Unknown, but
t!a ;o y -a, certainly, there he was
no::l Jo tho I it 1 lo blonde coquette, with
the sfductivo little snub nose, and the
showy white felt hat tho oliicer of
Lul'.owor street, tho same before whom
my little friend bad taken llight, for
although I had no foundation for the
the idea, since wo had met many other
men on that street, I could not belli
thinking of tho large, showy, hand
some, but utterly blase and insolent
looking lieutenant of infantry in con
nection with her.
"Who is that pale ofiicer.'" asked I
of i iv friend Krich.
" Where.'"
I indicated the direction to him.
"The ou with the black beard, next
to th.- little blonde lady."
"!!.'" said Urich. and laughed.
"W hy, ho is tho lately betrothed, the
har.e.'.ome i'aumwolf. I thought you
sur. iy must know him."
"?.o, no; but what is the story about
him r" I inquired.
"Well, nothing moro than that yon
der blonde has with much trouble, it
mu:.t bo admitted captured him for
life, after he has caused ne arly ninety
nine others to dieani of the same
h;,.;y fate. For myself, I never
cor.i-1 have attained such an elegiac
"aim. al ter breaking oif a love ah'air.
II.it ho lias been unh-rfunate. Young
Sadies with and without pedigree,
with and without money bags, bow
:low:i to him, after ho has devoted
'jirn: e lf to them for half an hour, en
tirely conquered by bis irresistible
rase;i:atioiis. And it is just the same
with the old ones. Many, to bo sure,
allege, indeed, that behind that titanic
brow there is nothing but a cornfield,
and that a thrashed out one!"
While Eiieh had been speaking my
eye; had wandered away from l'aum
wolf. His pale face, framed in by
curling black beard and hair, remind
ed r.;e, in fact, of the Zeus of Otricoli.
To mo it was in the highest degree re
pugnant. ".T'.iough tears have recently been
flowing from beautiful eyes, since his
betrothal with Fraulein Josepha Maier
has appeared in The Gazette.
"?laier?" I involuntarily asked.
"Yes, yes," laughed Erich; "simply
Maier with an 'a-i,' but passably pretty
and immensely rich, of course. And
since Fraulein Josepha does not look
Jewish, Paumwclf can endure that his
fatkcr-hi-law in spe should have
form-Tly been a cloth merchant in
Fit. :: ! :f ort-oii-thc-Main. "
The, conversation havingonce turned
on ti:o handsome Faumwolf, it did net
coon leave tiie subject. On the other
side v.f our table the people were whis
pering about him, and one said:
"J;, is quite incomprehensible to me
that I :o did not rather take little Gerds
hof, whom ho so recently courted.
The h i is of altogether dili'ereiit stock
from the Maiers, and she seems to be
lie: :l over heels in love with him.''
"Yes, but tho money the money?"
criee another.
"Well, at all events, this one is a
blo:i-!e, too, and a very rude one," re
ma i ' cd a third. An idea suddenly
seiz-r-.l me.
"Where does Fraulein Gerdshof
live';"' asked I of Erich.
lie looked at me a moment without
speaking, and then laughed aloud.
"Well, you certainly are amusing
thi.5 evening with your abrupt ques
tionv. Besides being called Yon Gerds
hof, of old Margravite nobility, her
fr.thc : is a pensioned general, but
whe : ; she lives I do not know. Do
von wish to console her for the loss of
Pa: l ; wolf, old boy?"
I t"; row him a glance full of rage.
A ye -.ug assessor who sat at our table
a:i'i seemed to have heard our dia
lo.'.a called out tome: "I can give
-.-. the address, Baron Kur-
in'.-.v. n street, No. 33."
.'. I ! that was tho very dwelling of
my Unknown. I felt "all the blood
iu. ii to my heart; then thanking him
is' t. c information, took my hat and
stick, and without turning to reply to
tho j .'Sting remarks of those remain
ing i I the tabic, left tho place to saun
ter, v. ithout aim or object, through
the Moonlit streets.
1'ii.w, after long wandering hither
and thither, I finally found myself
Ix f r. o the much thought of house in
Ku.-.inzen street, I surely cannot
tell. I went on tho opposite side of
thc::'cet and looked at the house

as if em wings; almost an hour thus
passed in chatting with the amiable eld

had not appe-are-el. But when tit part
ing the general said he hoped to:ee
me ei ten at his house during my stay
iu the city, 1 e-ould not refrain from
pressing hi-; ha.nel in e'.eep, hearth It

What was tho excitement and expec

pared with the impatient throbbing of
my heart with which 1, on tho ap
pointed elay, beteiok myself to tlio elin:
r.er. A numerous company had
alreaely assembled; many of tiio per
sons present were known to me, were
ineleed friends, my that I soon found
m-sclf most eleiighti'ully sitaated.
And the daughter of the house?
Thcresloe.nl Eveline with her friends,
her graceful figure moving with be
witching grace among the guests; for
she was obliged to assist that aged,
somewhat conventional locking lady
in deing the honors of the house the
general's wife hael been eleaei many
years and I could nel help admiring
the tact and self possession with which
she, in spito of her youth, so charm
ingly filled the position cf hostess.
Here she askeel an okl gentleman after
tho health of his sick spouse; there
she whispered some pleasant remark
to a young lady about her tasteful
toilet, or repelled a too gallant cavalier
with a scornful glance or a saucy an
swer. With cacti and all she knew
just the right tone to take. She was
surrounded by all. Everyone flocked
about her, who, like an apparition out
of a story book, moved around amcng
those molded fashion plates. And yet
there lay in her violet eyes, when she
believed herself to be unobserved, a
sael expression which did not accorel
with tlio conventional smile of the
sweet, small mouth.
At length the signal for dinner was
given. Eveline laiel tho tips of her
dainty fingers on the arm ef at:",
blonde cavalier, a cousin of thefami

was Countess Soundso, no longer i.:
the first bloom of youth, l.i.iust a:l
that I had secretly hoped to see Li . -line's
angelic heael at my siclv Yv iiu
a mien which was certainly not very
amiable, I otTercd tho countess my
arm anel led her to the places desig
nated for us. Though otherwise a
most estimable lady, she almost drove
me to despair with her loquacity, and
while she even before soup inquireel
about my recent journey in the East,
and expressed a desire to hear some
thing about my last new work, my
glance strayed impatiently past the
questioner in a vain search for Eveline.
I had not had the opportunity to ex
change one worel with her. She had
oidy noeldcd to me from across the
room, pleasantly and confidingly, as
to an old acquaintance.
Pretty soon I felt a gentle touch on
my arm, anel a voice 1 only too well
remembered asked, shyly, and at the
came time saucily :
"Boes nicin Ilerr no longer recog
nize his protege?"
I turned quickly,- anel, yes, there in
eleed was Eveline, who hael been sit
ting next to me for full five minutes
without my having observed her. My
neighbor, the countess, and Eveline's
escort, the cousin in the Guards, very
soon understooel how much they might
expect to be entertainetl by Eveline or
myself tluring the four or five hours
passed at the table. How the time sped
and what were tho general topics of
conversation wo never knew. But I
was entirely happy during the whole
time. Not once eiiel I discover in her
eyes that melancholy drooping which
had before made me anxious. Oh, if
I could only succec-el in making her
forget Paumwolf I To this fond, proud
thought I concentrated all my mind
and eli'orts. Yvith rapture I noticed
how her oyer, hung so earnestly on my
lrps as I tolel her of my travels, and
my restless wandering about from one
distant land to another. Anel when I
spoke of my dear solitary Barwalde,
with its somber fir trees and its rush
grown pondsi of my immense library
and tho beautiful grand piano which I
often trusted to the hands of my over
seer, just to have some accompanying
instrument to my beloved violoncello ;
when I saiel, "Surely Fraulein Eveline
also plays on the piano, and very much
better, too, than my overseer," a
thoughtful smile spread over tho tlear,
swe-ct face. She loved music very
much, she replied, anel it would give
her pleasure to accompany mo some
day.1
"I hope you will do that at Bar
walde,"" I cried, passionatelj". She
tlroppcel her lids, over the c.'ear, violet
eyes, and a deep blush spread ever her
cheek.

A Lesson in Grammar.
One of the stumbling blocks to the
fine writers is the okl grammatical
crux of the "Two first." This is all
wrong according to the school teach
ers. Tho Herald receiveel anel an
swered a question last week touching
tho grammatical accuracy of Bishop
Lericcley in the much quoteel verse :
Westward the course of empire takes its way;
The four fii-tit acts already post.
Shoulel it not reael first four? asks
the querist. Not at all. "But," says
the school teacher, "there cannot tie
sour firsts, there can only be one.
Oh, yes, there can; there can be as
! : .any firsts as people want. The pre
; ; . nso of the grammarians is, that
j when you say lirst four you speak
! : :oro correctly, for you have in mind
second and third four, but this is
oreciselv where thev are mistaken
In tho passage in question there is
only reterence to hve acts altogether,
and if you say the first four there can
not be a seconel four in tho thoucrht.
And yet the hard headed grammarians
labored over this problem tor years.
until tho newspapers showed them it
made no difference in the thought
whatever in what order you placed
tiic words. Chicago Herald.
Is Dry Rot Contagious ?
Tlinvi- r y -ne.n m lo h enrdi n fliinor nc
a diagnosis of disease in v.ood, anef the
botanical physicians, according to The
Northwestern Lumberman, profess to
know that it may be contagious or
sporadic. Dry rot is called conta
gious, and it is said that the germ of
that elisease may be communicated to
sound wood by tools which have been
at work in diseased wooel. It is
thought possible that this theory ac
counts for many incomprehensible
breakages of timbers. The suggestion
is that sound lumber should not be cut
with the same saw that has passed
through fctulf affected by dry rot with
out cleaning.
Cclcr and Taste.
The peculiar association cf a color
with a sound by which a certain sound
will at or.ee vividly arouse a definite
color, is quite normal and has of re
cent years been frequently described.
The association of color with smells is
a much rarer phenomenon, and of
color with tastes perhaps rarer still.
Dr. Fere gives an account of a woman,
who, after taking vinegar, saw every
thing red for a few minutes, and tlen
everything as bright green for more
than an hour. Dr. Fore explains this
as duo to a similarity in the subsidiary
emotional eilccts accompanying the
sensation. Science.
