"How shall a man propose in order to be snccemful In bis sultT repeated one of our most Intelligent society ladies, whose silver locks only serve to enhance the beauty of ber still youthful face, "In my opinion, though all men know well enough how to 'make love, there is not one in a thousand who knows how to proposo. My husband Fjient six months protecting and convincing me of bis love, of which, by the way, I was well aware from the first, without once asking mo tho important question, 'Will you marry tnef and finally one day said to me, with a clia-tinai-tcned air, 'You are like all the rost. a perfect enigma. I have sjwnt mouths trying to win you, and I do not know that I havo mailo any impression ijxn you ; you are as hard to uuravol as tho scarf you wear around your throat' 'This, I exclaimed, in the most innoreut way, 'why, 'tis no difficult task to unravel it, if you only get hold of the right striug.' Ho saw the point, took hold of the right Ktring, and "HiH arm took the place of the scarf 1" "Well, neither of ui have ever reifttcd it." ON HIS KNEE9. Ono lady, tho wife of a learned judge, said: " Tis eighteen 3'oars since that dear man made a fool of mo, and after so great a lapse of tiino you cannot export mo to remember how he did it. I'll vow bo went down on his knpos, though you wouldn't think it to look at bis rotund proportions. And I was silly enough to believe every word ho said, and when he drc!ared sole.nnly that he would shoot himself if I did nol marry him of courso I consented, just to save his lifo; but I'll not be so tally another time- if lie only gives mo tho cLance." "Don't believe a word of tliat," chimed in thojudgo from behind ids paper. "I was actually compelled ! -i-k her to marry mo to get rid of the trouble of taking her or some other girl nround; 1 s'uo was iu love with mo, and thought she w..::M do as well as any other. Now that suuis up the whole history of this case." vir.onons courtship. f A brisi:' ) n-.l girl, w ho is a skillful angler for heart?, tinuks a youn m-n, to ba successful, Ishould propose af tor a very short acquaiat ans, take tin; girl by storm, as it were, while she is pleased w;th a now lieau, and beforo she has time to tiro of him; then follow the pro;iosal up with a vigorous courtship, lots of flowers and bonbons, drivos, theatre urtiest etc., and, if sho consent--;, insist upon a short engagement by all means. UNEXPECTED VOW3. Another well-knowu bloada beauty, who has created sad haviK:, and had much expt rienco in this lino, snys the ouly successful way is to propiso wh?:ti least expoctod. Allow no time for consideration, and then insist that th ncfcpi.-iiieu mast bv "now or never." Sho feels sure that ls the only waj' that sho will ever bo captured, hut sho thinks very few men are boiJ enough to try that game. LOVEU3 BOUE8. Ono well-known belle and Insauty says that "sho has had so many makes love to her that she hardly knows what is the best and most successful method. She was more occupied in studying how to prevent an approach to the subject than in facilitating it. Beaux wore all lovely until they became lovers, thru they became bores, for they moved, thought and talked constantly o" themselves and Ihmr happiness. Marriage is quite another tlung, is quite easily settled, when one find-, a suitable partner. Al'.Ot'ND THE WAIST. A married lady, in whose household the lil tie god of love certainly make hisabxxie, says the only successful p:o;sition of which she knows anything was nut do without a word being spoken; "John and I sat looking in tho fire a long time, without saying any thing, when all at once ho put- his arm around me, drew me to him and kissed me. When father came in a moment- later he said: 'Major, I'm going to steal your daughter.' " WILY WIDOWERS. A riark-oyed girl, with a tangle of soft brown hair shading her brow, says "If a fel low is desperately in love with a girl, and pei-sistent in his efforts to wiu her, he is sure to gain his suit. Widowers understand this point, and know exactly how to make love and propose, and you will oliscrve they are always successful." Sho knows one case where a widower wont in and hung up his hat, announcing his intention of remaining until he was accepted, and the girl had to marry him to get rid of him. A widower beau makes her -nervous about the result. MARRYING IN HASTE. ? "The quickest courtship on record," said one old resideut, "wiis that of Dr. Nick Mc Dowell, who, driving along the street in bis buggy one day, saw a beautiful girl standing at the window. He immediately stopped and hitched his horse, rang the tiell, inquired the lady's name, was ushered into the parlor, an nounced his own name', said he was "pleased with her appearance ami wished to marry her at once." Nothing but the knowledge that she was actually in the presence of the celebrated physician kept her from fainting. To her plea of Surprise at this unexpected announcement,' he only replied, 'Now r never.' When she asked to 'lake a week to consider,' he said, '1 am going down street to attend a critical case and liave no tiuiu to spare right now.' ' 'Give me a dav, then.' " TU tell you what I'll do. When I cm through with this professional visit, I'll drive arouud ana get a preacher; if you've made up your mind to marry mo by that time, all right 1' and he left her, breathless and unable to articulate another word. When be re turned they were quietly married. 'No cards."' no "pArxon" BEATJ. A society girl, who evidently has a bead for business as well as beaux, says: "No 'parlor bean' need ever propose with any hope of successs, for after a girl is compelled to bend her whole en- gies to the task of entertaining him 'quietly at home' for six months she would be appalled at the proposition to spend the baiauoe of her life 'quietly at home.'" 8be explains that a "parlor beau" is that sel fish, egotistical individual who, being a man, has as much variety and change as he wants, and thinks himself sufficiently interesting to entertain a girl without any assistance in the way of theatres, paiies and drives, but leaves the other fellows to amuse her iu that way. j A Live 31 an iu a Hearse. Rochester Post-Express. A rare form of hospitality was offered and accepted in Syracuse a few days ago An undertaker returning from the cemetery over took a decrepit German, who was toiling along in manifest weariness, and offered him a ride in the hearse. The tired pilgrim was sissisted into the vehicle, s-trc tched himself at length on the floor, the doors were shut and the undertaker drove on. Of course a livt passenger iu such a conveyance attracted a throng. '.of people. "StopI the rum's uot dead, cried a horror stricken wittpss, but the heaire moved on to the Germans destina tion, set him down in the middle of an excited crowd aid drove rapidly away. i'iie BOiVALO.

Lvrds of buiTalo. .an. tciope and deer weie to bo necsi on every side--, is now, to all ap.-ui anccs, stripped of its game. For tho vi.tiiv distance from Living ston to Man dun I only saw two or three small bands of antelope and not a sign of. a deer or buffalo. The fact is, the slaughter c f buiTalo and door Las btn immense for the past two years, and particularly of the fo.' Bjsr. It is estimated that durintr the oast winter tnere have bean l.uuo Hunters engaged in the business of slaughtering buffalo along the line of the Northern Pacific, between Marxian and Livingston. An eagle-eyed hunter got aboard of the train at Glendive, and be gave mo the following Interesting de tails as to the modus operandi in slaughter ing herds of buffalo: In the first place, tba experienced hunter uses tba Sharp rifle, 40-W caliber. "With this be can kill at 1,000 yards. When be sees a herd of buffalo be usually slips up to within convenient range, from J0 to S00 yards, and always select a cow for bis first victim. He does this for the reason that the cow is followed by both her yearling and two-year-old calves, and they will usually stand by ber to the last. But under no cir-clrcumi-tanci-s will the experienced bunUr kill his buffalo outright. If be does, the herd will stampede at oiu. Tlic policy is to wound fatally, but so that tho animal will dash around in a circle bafore falling. This it al ways does when mortally wounded, and after a few moments lies down. The remainder of the herd are not alarmed at this, but con tinue to gaze or look on dazed spectators of the tragedy being enacted. After bis first shot the hunter pauses until quiet is restored, and again fires at another cow with similar results. He always aims to put his ball just behind the fore shoulder, which will cause death in five minutes at furthest. "When the cows have all been slain be turns his atten tion to the calves, and lustly to the bulls. The experienced hunter generally bags his en tire herd, ' unless be is so unfortunate as to drop his game immediately, when all the sur vivors stampede at once. The buffalo does not scare at the crack of a gun. Ho has de cidedly more courage than discretion. It is only when the crack is followed by an im mediate fall that ho realizes its deadly nature and takes alarm. Tho policy of lulling the cows first and then the calves has resulted in the almost utter extinction of the female buffalo. Herds of melancholy bulls can still occasionally be seen, sometimes in bands of twenty or thirty, ami often without a single cow.. Tha few remaining cows now have their pick of lovers, and always choose from the young blood of tho herd. The buffalo bull after he passes bis fourth year, loses his attractiveness to the opposite sex, and tho aversion seems to lie mutual. Gathering about him his bachelor friends of equal age, ho sullenly retires into the wilder ness and forever avoids the female members of the herd, who mate with younger and mora uxorious masculines. As I havo said, tho bulls are aliout all that are now left of the buffalo. They largely owe their safety to the fact that their hides are less valuable than those of tho cows, while at the same time they aro far more difficult to kilL The hide of the bull is only worth to tho hunter from $1.80 to $2, whilo that of the cow brings $3.25, and that of the 2-year-old calf is worth from $1 to $1.50. But of late there has sprung up quits a demand throughout the east for tho hoad of tha buffalo bulL The well-preserved head of an aged bull, docked out with glass eyes and horns intact, will readily sell for $5 in the eastern markets. Consequently the buffalo-hunter of the fu ture will wage a destrtctive war upon the bull tribe, and these venerable relics of a by gone era will also pass swiftly away. Little John Jarre tt. Tittsburg Dispatch. - - John Jarrett always took a decided interest in what is known in amalgamated parlance as "solitary cases." These are cases where the firm or its manager picks out a man in a mill and discharges him, bis offence usually being his zealousness for his order. "Whilo Mr. Jarrett was in Philadelphia one of these cases was reported to headquarters from the Bethlehem Iron company's works, at Bethle hem, Pa. Mr. Jarrett was in the Philadel phia office when the information came in. He determined to investigate the matter in per son. Beaching Bethlehem ho went quietly among the men, incognito, and gathered after much effort the true state of affairs. He ap proached the manager, and after making a few inquiries, he demanded that the man be restored to his place. The manager looked, at the little man dressed in sober blue and said: "And who are youf "I'm Jarrett," said the little president of the big puddlers of America. He did not say it loud nor with apparent pride. The manager looked at him, the men took in the situation and looked with admiration up on the little labor champion. He did not talk back, however, but went straightway and called the company together and told them that Jarrett was among the men and de manded the restoration of the last man dis charged. The big Bethlehem Iron company were scared at the little Welshman's pres ence and without further parley ordered a shut down of a steel mill with an average annual output of 135,000 tons. Thus the sit uation rests, and Jarrett told the men to see that the mill be kept shut until the discharged man was restored. He then left as quietly as be came, bis visit producing a good effect up on t he men. Congressman Blackburn Prophesies. Washington Special. "I can name the next Democratic ticket. Hoadly is going to carry Ohio by 20,000. That will make him the Democratic candidate for president, and Cleveland, of New York, will bo tho Democratic vice presidential nominee. - The Republicans will abandon party organization and nominate David Davis, and they will not carry seven states. When it was suggested that Hoadly would not carry Indiana, Blackburn said: "Would you have the Democrats" go to Indiana and pick up any on? of three men all three of whom are fighting each other P When he suggested Cleveland for the vice presidency, some one said, "If Sam Cox is elected speaker it would seem that he would bo the strongest man for vice president." Blackburn replied: "There is only one trouble about Cox; he never plays for high enough stakes. If be had played for tho p. t.-Mency he might have amounted to something. He ran for speaker once, and had four votes." A CSeorsia Love Letter. From The Berrien News.

At the mouth of the Cumber kind river in Kentucky stands the supeiamiuaictltown of H nithland. It is one of tb 'ii:is beens" so, f tquently seen on the banks of tb -western ri .'t rs where the railroads liave cut them off irom the great short routvs .i trade and travel and left them to sltiinl.er and decay. This little old town of Smithlanfl was oiieof tho- most promising little tow.n on the river forty yean-; afn. It promised, but didn't pay. A sandbar formed iu front of tho town and rut it off from convenient access .to steam boats, and after tba failure of a government dam toturn tb qujrtnttraia djrlft4 awar irom VriJ io"K 'to fieV more roftilbato mat' Paducah, ten miles below, at tho mouth of the Tennessee, and grass and dog fennel grew, in the street ' -' In the days of her prosperity Parson Brown low, the eccentric preacher and editor of the Knoxvlllo, (Tenn-V Whig, accepted an invi tation to go down to rtmfthland and assist at a Methodist revival. Tb church being in an incomplete condition and the pulpit being filled with bundles of laths, Parson Brownlow took his seat in the altar, where ba sat pick ing bis teeth and looking at the congregation, previous to the morning service. After sing ing and prayer be announced that he bad been making a study of the congregation and thought a temperance lecture would be more appropriate than a sermon. At this an nouncement a queer old specimen of humanity, known as "Live-forever," Jones, jumped up from a front seat and exclaimed: t "I came to hear preaching, sir, not to listen to your experience-. YouTl please excuse me if Heave." ; ,'',, ."Certainly, sir, you are excused," said Brownlow, "and now, brethren," he contin ued, as "Live-forever" inarched out, "as there is no further necessity for the temperance lecture I will preach," and a very able ser mon was the result. At tho evening service Brother "Live-forever" Jones was in bis customary seat at the front, holding in his hand a lath which bo bad taken from the pulpit at he came in. - During tho excitement of the revival songs and prayers another member of tho church named Jones, wai called upon to pray, to whioh Brother "Live-forever" - readily re sponded, and be vigorously accented bis peti tion to the throne of grace by whacking the pew with the lath. After the violent -nocking at the door of grace a song followed, and then Parson Brownlow led in prayer, at the beginning of which bo was seen to secure a half dozen laths from the pulpit, and as he warmed up in the prayer it was noticed that he kept edging along toward Brother "Live forever." At last ho got within striking reach and began to emphasize his petition by vigorous whacks of the laths over the head and shoulders of Brother Jones, while tho congregation shouted amen and tho proces sion of Brother "Live-forever" and Parson Brownlow moved toward the door. The praj'er earnestly ascended and the latlis de scended until "Live-forever" had pafely escaped to the street minus bis hat. Then the prayer ended, and the congregation real ized that they hail experienced and enjoyed another of Parson Brownlow's eccentricitiea. Winked at Him. Washington letter in Courier-Journal. Maj. Wintersmith, of Texas, is passing away tho jull hours at the capital spinning yarns for tho entertainment of newspaper men. Here is bis latest, of two old Louisville spoils: "There lived in Louisville before the wah," says Jim, "two old sports, Dick Watson and old Bill Miller. Dick was a strong bebever in the doctrino of transmigration. He out lived Miller many years. About ten years after Miller died, old Dick came walking up the street one day to where there were several of his old acquaintances. As they stood in front of the Gait house, one of them asked wliat was new in the world. "Oh," said Dick, "nothing. I have just met old Bill Miller and had a talk with liim." "Oh, no; Bill is dead. He has been dead ten years," said one of the party. "I can't help it; I just met him and had a talk." Tho parties bethought themselves and re membered that Dick was a believer in trans migration, Rememliering this one of them asked old Dick where he had seen old Bill. " 'Right down street. He has come back; is a Tbus horse; is standing right down there hitched to a 'bus. I know it is him. You think I don't know old Biil Miller; why he winked at me as I passed by the 'bus that is standing right down there, and there is just shade enough for ono, and old Bill is stand ing in that, throwing off on his partner, as usual. Oh, I know it is him." "This settled it, and all hands went in and took it straight." A Western Man Pnzxled In Xew Jersey. New York Sun. '.Blessed it 1 don t give it up!" said a western man who was wandering up and down tho avenues ot Ocean Grove, N. J.f mopping his brow with a large bandanna. Deep trouble was outlined on his face. "Yes, I'm lost!" he exclaimed to a bystander. "I came up from Philadelphia this morning with my wife, and took rooms at the North Pole house. I went to take a walk, and have been three hours trying to find my way back. I've had no dinner and don't know where to get it. Wife probably thinks I've deserted her. What puzzles me is that everybody tells me that Ocean Grove has no hotel named North Pole." 'That's so!'' said the bystander. "Perhaps it's the Arctic" Western man (with a start) "That's it," and, upon being directed, he broke for it on a run. Another Ore at Tunnel Protected, Demorest's Monthly. And now it is proposed to'join England and Ireland by a tunneb- The distance, by way of the small island on the coast near Port Patrick, is nearly fourteen and a half miles. It will be an immense advantage to Ireland to be connected directly by railroad with England, and, of course, of still greater ad vantage if the tunnel under the British chan nel is ever constructed, XirknatueH for the People of the Statt h.
