How a .llodtst Tounsr Man Won HI Charmer at Last. Ilarper'e Magatsino. homo twonty years ago I do not know how many exactly, but it was some time during the war I heard a story which a soldier waB read ing in a newspaper to a littlo group around him, to their great enjoyment I shall tell it only in brief, though, I remember well, the filling in was a good part cf it, w hich will ba missing in my recitaL Mr. H. C. "Peterkin was a prosperous young ish man of buainoss who got ahead in spite of his constitutional modesty. This waa in bia way in society more than in trade; he was afraid of women moro than men. Tor a long, long time ho had sot his heart upon a lovely young lady.whoso sweetness waa like her name, which was Violet. He had often called upon hor, and reaolved'again and again that he would make her an offer of Lis heart and hand, but as often that heart failod him. Through the whole of the evening he would sit and "Gaze upon her as a star Whose purity and distance make it fair." and come away without making any progress in his suit At last hebecame alarmed.by the fact that the .dashing Captain Latham, of one of the Sound steamers, was often at the house when ho called to see his charmer, the charm ing Violet At last ho could not bear the sus pense any longer and he ventured, with much hesitancy and awkwardness, but with do-or-die determination, to ask her if aha would ba his. With remarkable coolness, she reclied: You should have spoken long ago, Mr. Pe- torkin ; I have been engaged to Capt Latham for some time past and we are to be married very short! v. I am .sorrv to disannoint vou. but we will be as good friends as ever, and you must come to see me just the same. The captain will always be glad to have your com pany. " reterkm want away sorrowfnL But a brighter day soon dawned, for within three mouths after they were married the captain fell off the steamer in a fog on the Sound and was drowned. Now Peterkin took heart Ho would have the widow. A year of mourning wore slowly away. Ha kept his eye ou the widow, but would not in eult the memory of the dead by proposing un til a ueceni interval iiau passed. Ihe year eudod, and he laid his heart again at the little feet of Violet She heard him quietly, and lliiAtlv rnniartAl "Ww Aaav I.t.vlrin T m Borry to disappoint you again, but for the last six months I have been engaged to Dr. Jones. It was hard to make up my mind between him and his friend the handsome Lawyer Bright but Dr. Jones was so good to ma while I waa sick in the winter after my husband's death that I promised him I would ba his at the end of the year. Ho poor Feterkin retired once mora; the widow Latham became Mrs. Dr. Jones, and so remained, while the discomrltted Peterkin wished the doctor might take enough of his own pills to make an end of him. Time passed on. Peterkin was walking down Broadway one day, while not vory far ahead of him he saw two men. one of whom he knew to be this hated Dr. Jones. A large flat stone was being hoisted to the coping of a new building; tho ropo gave way; it fell and instantly killed the two men. Peterkin rose to the emergency of the moment For the dead he could be of no avail. His thoughts were on the widow. He turned ; he ran, ho flew, to her abode. When she entered the room where he awaited her he began: -My dear Mrs. Jones, I bring you dreadful news. I was walking on the street, when I saw a stone fall from a house upon your poor husband, and he is dead; but yon must let me comfort you. I beg you now to be mine, my Violet, at last" ' Dear Mr. Peterkin, I am so sorry ! but when Dr. Jones and Mr. Bright were both beg ging mo to marry, I took-the doctor, and promised-Mr. Bright,if anything happened to Jones, I would certainly be his. So you see I am en gaged. I am Borry, for I do think a great deal of you, my dear Peterkin." feterkin was very calm and self-contained. He said, "And will you promise to bo mine when that lawyer is no more?" "Certainly I" will, with all my heart and soul" "Then come to my arms, my Violet, for the same stone that killed the doctor was tho death of Bright and yon are mine at last" Hurry. Worry and Waste. The London Lancet utters its protest, from a medical point or new, against overwork and worry. Ye have, it says, too many irons in the fire, too much business on hand at the same instant, and are far too energetic in our sndeavoro. With deliberation, calmness and such'reservcof strength as results from perfect restraint a man may do an infinity of work without either trouble or injury. Breathless haste, eager anxiety, and an excessive expend iture of energy are the outooma of modern ac tivity, whether in this country or on the conti nent The system of "quick returns' has been the bane of literature, almost extinguishing it and substituting 'in its place "journalism. " The same system has revolutionised thought and science, and it is rapidly undermin ing the human constitution. Statesmen and politicians aro kept on the strain of sus tained attention, and their brains are for many hours in the twenty-four, whether in or out of Earliament, in a condition of ferment The rains of speculators on the stock exchange, and even the brains of merohants in their private rooms, are equally taxed, and in the same way. All classes 01 the community share tha tur nioiL The period is one of brain-wearing im-' petuosity, of hurry, worry and waste the waste of cerebral enorgy and nerve force. Tha only marvel is that locking to the utterly un physiological character of our mental and ner vous habits of work, the number of sudden failures is uot greater than it is. and that we have not a larger percentage of brain-in' ity to deploi a. Rnrdette and the Editor. The Graphic One day when Bob Burdette was in New Tork nawkeye Burdette, I mean he went to the then Evening Express office and met the then managing editor, Chamberlain. Concealing his identity Bob told a touching story of his strug gle in a country newspaper office and his de sire to try his hand at the metropolitan grind. Mr. Chamberlain 'received the modest appli cant with great dignity and no encouragement Finally he asked for samples of the ambitious countryman's literary efforts. Bob handed for inspection one of his unpublished sketches done in his happiest vein. "A person who writes such rot as this," calmly and icily ex plained Mr. Chamberlain, "can never hope ln succeed in journalism. He should get a job of hoeing corn. The joke did not look half ts fnnny to Mr. Chamberlain as it did to the al ways genial Bob, after the mauaging editor disoovered who his visitor really was, and tha more particularly that at that time the Express was copying copiously from Burdette'e Hawfc- F.

THE BROOKLYN BRIDGEs The iireat EarlaeertBff Wrk of ' : CwaU-UBt, tlM And th Larfiit Btructur oflu Kind in th World. Goorga Alfred To wnaand, , . V " In order to get on tha bridge I had to walk up a steep hill from tha Eaat rivee fto Fourth or Fifth street, and turning ia there at tha lop of the hill I came to a huge ornamental trota house, tha skeleton of which ia just up, and which aeemed to me to ba some thing like 100 feet long, and ia to be, I suppose, tha depot of tha railroad company er easing tha bridge. much smaller depot hi aa: the New York aide. and not so far advanoed. These ears are to cross on a second story of tha bridge ao aa to ba above and out of tha way. and that ele vated railroad portion is bat partly finished. I gave a pass at tha gate, and waa instructed tokeepin tha middle of tha bridge on an asphaltum walk, till I should come to a ladder, and this I waa directed to descend, and take a half finished board walk on the right and look out for holes. The first hole to which I came before I got on tha bridge proper at all gave ma a view of people and wagons far down below that I aaw comparatively little of the bridge for some time, being engaged in looking for more holes. Although tha aaoent seems very gentle, it ia like any reformation ia Ufa, however alight, if continued long enough it carries tha man to a pretty high altitude. In a very few atepe tho town, whose level I had left began to sink down, and very soon its highest roofs were far below me. As I approached tha river, what seemed to be long and broad wharves I found to be the pebbled roofs of warehouses and fac tories. I had walked, it seemed to me, a third of a mile before I discovered tha cables at alL they dropping below tha bridge in order to get the proper dip to acale tha towers. At tha place where tha ladders descended I found a crude wooden walk, intended, I think, for ve- buiam. uwuirviuK uie uuwui ui ma DnaireL A 1 understand, the outside nlaoea are for waff. ona. tha two spaces next within for street-cars. and the middle walk for pedestrians, while the cable railroad goes over the top of every tfaing ui ias wiuuio. 4 A large number of men were at work on tha bridge after 1 left the viaduct and straek that portion truly suspended; yet from belotrjt had looked as if nobody was there. . Soma of these men were keeping charcoal fires alive to heat bolts red-hot; others were carrvina- the bolt to blacksmiths, aud the blacksmiths were driv ing, while their assistants were supporting tha blows. A multitude of men ware painting tha iMn ns.4i.-iH . .ml .11 4WI. kiJ.. . ...... t. temporary planking and the wooden ties for tha railroad. Is of either iron or steel, iron beinsr used in enormous girders ia tha approaches and to span the ato-eeta. Thar waa also a lit tle army or carpenters at work at temporary things. Tha bridge haa been painted in the modern taste, with olive parapets, variegated with red or blaok. When I finally came to one of the neat towers it seemed even loftier aad grander when I was within it than it looked from the! ferry boats on the river. There are two magnificent Gothio arches in each tower, and the stone shaft between them has to sUDDOrt two mora cables. To stand within that huge arch of what seemed to ba solid stone and look np at the lofty keystone made me dixzy, yet effect ually destroyed the last UnA-erina imnreeaion that there might be something unsafe about the support The towers looked aa if they were almost eternaL Tha cable which ao gracefully streamed out above aeemed merely links of sausage struns between tha housea of friendly Dutchman. Indeed, tha iron pendants from the cables seemed so slurht and indifferent to their responsibility that I looked at them ia soma wonder. Near the towers, of course, these rods, which I presume to be also made of wire, were Terr Ion, and seemed to have tha height of a very tall tree or nag stair; men tney gradually shortened aa tha bridge floor rone to the centre, and the cable descended until one could examine the entire Eendant from where it clasped tha eable like a uman wrist to where it seized tha truss be low in a great U ahaped hook of steel, on the thread of which tha nut had been worked down in soma eases to the length of two or three feet To look at tha boats of all desoriDtions nass- ing underneath waa to feel at onoe timid and have an exaggerated sense of distinctness. Every object on their decks, every function of life, the moving of a cat or a dog, the long stride of a sailor or the width apart of tha feet of the man at tha tiller, aeemed Terr curious, while there waa yet a propensity not to look. The big steam ferry-boats, which always saaAmararl oa aiHll Knfiwa w ava i n i i siaam aW waaI Kvwaaaw WW avkaaa Wiuio, VTWA'9 M V W av a vruav as if they were on a high aea. Tha movement of the top of a mast as it rolled with tha vessel seemed to describe an are of remarkable length. Larare schooners went underneath. and their maata yet seemed to ba nowhere near. Another world waa exposed from tha center of the bridge. The prominent ebjects which I had been familiar with in the two cities were hardly visible on account of the distance; while tha large sugar refineries, manufactories and inatitutiena f hardly knew substantial was the work that he who kept his eyes off the water below him felt as secure tuera as ic ue ft ad peen Is the middle of some turnpike. X observed with what diligence and fore thought the telegraph people had stretched their cables of different kinds and teleDhone en casement amidthe open iron work of the floors, where they seemed to be a portion of tha structure itself. The trains of cars are all built I am told, which are to be run on the cable railroad. The Brooklyn approach, I no ticed as I came near New York, waa of a differ, ent design from that in the main city. The New York parapets are mora elaborate, but not so graceful and delicate in design. Al though this bridge has cost something like 14,000. 000.lt shows very much of that money. particularly when one considers that in the two cities something tike three-quarters of a mile of the most valuable property to the width of eighty to one hundred feet nad to be bought outright for approaches. After 1 came out or ue western tower ana entered into New York proper, I felt somewhat that I have crossed the Atlantic ocean, ao pecu liar were tha sensations of having arisen oat of a city I had visited hundreds of times, and gone through the air like a bird and coma down in New York without touching a boat of any kind. Tha magnificent height of tha buildings in New York struck me at onoe aa compared with the plain edifices of Brooklyn. I seemed like ona who had coma down a ra vine, and suddenly found himself . surrounded bv tall mountains. As I looked an at anch edifices as The Tribune building, the Morse building, the Kelly building, all of which seemed to stand guard around tha bridge, I observed that two of the most conspicuous sentries upon this royal pathway were the new office of a Police Gazette, and a tremendous building where they publish tha Seaside Libra ries that have dona so much to spoil good cooks and housekeepers and destroy any native liter ature. Although X want over this bridge in March weather, I did not perceive that the air was at an strong, ana it occurred to ma mat it wouia make one of the most beautiful promenade in the world for persona wanting good air, good sunlight and freshening, variegated ecenea. From that height the river below becomes aa blue and soft as Italian mountains, and every change in its surface made by river craft is some delicious variation of the tint while tha forma of boats, the sails, the fiaga, the infinite, variety of forms attending the river craft here give the mind a roal holiday. I asked Mr. Kingsley, one of the directors of the bridge, if he thought it would make any ehange in Brooklvn. "Yea,'1' said he, "I think it will be one of tha greatest influences toward giving us 1,000,000 population which we ought to have here in tha course of ten or fifteen years mora." I asked him if any elevated railroad schema existed on the Brooklyn side. Sa d he: "There was a charter obtained for a railroad, but it was allowed to lapse: and an other elevated road, of which little has been built, bids fair to lapee before anything is done. I hear that a Mr. Wilson from one of tha west ern states, Ohio perhaps, haa proposed to build this latter road. . He ia connected, I think, with the Nickel-Plate syndicate. But if it is not built we have a general railroad law under which, no doubt eome company will be organ ized to carry a railroad from the bridg through this city." - Speaking to Mr. Kin sella, tho well-knowa editor of Brooklyn, he said: "Tha bridge, while it is going to be no injury to New York, ia going to give Brooklyn a fixed status aa aa integral portion of the metropolis Heretofore it haa been vary difficult to go to a theatre 1a New York because oneaeyer knew what fame he was going to get home by the ferry boats.

Kansas City Times. They tell a new story now of Senator Tabor, of Colorado. It ia related that, when Tabor waa on tha KansasPecifio train going to Wash ington to taks his seat be met a Hebrew drum mer who had known him some time by repu tion. To pass the time they engaged in a game offseven-up. Tho play was even until tha close of tha aeoond game whea the drummer received four kings aud an eight-spot A queen was turned np. "Great Godd!" said the dru minor. "Mr. Dabor I visht it vaa boker. If ve vaa playin' boker I rood bet you my whole bun-doll. "How much is your bundlo! " asked the aobla senator from Colorado. "Two hundred and fifty toiler," replied the drummer. "Well," replied Tabor, "If yon give me the queen which is turned, 1 will go you. " "Tun," said the drummer, aud Tabor picked np the queen. "Dot eea a shnap," whispered tha drummer, showing his hand to a man in the next seat "I should smile," answered the man laconio aUy. "Vood yon like to bet some more Meester Dabor?" asked the.coiaxuercial tourist with an insinuating smile. "Yes," said the noble senator. "I have a fair hand; I whT make it 500." 1 hef only fifty," replied the drummer, and he made his bet good for 1300. "What hef yon get Meester Dabor?" "Four aces," answered Colorado's favorite son, showing the fatal one-spots. The drum mer waa perfectly paralyzed, and waa nnable to speak, while the noble senator stowed the pot in his toga. Slowly drawing a cigar from his pocket Colorado's favorite waa about to light up and withdraw, when the drummer re covered his sense of speech.

Tibbitt in San Francisco Chronicle The direction to "aaw off a limb as closely i possible to the stem," I consider unwise. Nature indicates precisely where every limb should be removed On every limb, close to the body of the tree, can be seena collar or ring. Just outside of this collar is tha place to cut off tha limb. If cut at a distance from this point the limb will die down to it and ia time will alough off. If cut inside of it and close to the tree there is danger of a decayed spot resulting in time and a long time will elapse before the wound will heat If a limb la cut at tne point 1 have indicated and at tha proper time,, which is when the sap is descend ing to form a new layer of wood, the wound, unleea a large one, will heal over the first year. A. Political Cariosity. Chicago Times. There ia a genuine political cariosity in Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania. Tha recently-elected sheriff has actually declined to hold office for the reason that it may inter fere with his business. Like Artemus Ward, who used to say that he never let business in terfere with his drinking, the politician sel dom lets business interfere with his politics. The Pennsylvania man ia a rare case.
