Wreck of Two Lives.
Ainong tho residents pf Montreal ,
in tho Hpring of 188was an old
Canadian family whom wo will coll
Maisonvillo , who occupied one of Shor-
brooke street mansions. The fa mily
were but few in number , consisting
of Pierre Muisonville , n retired land
owner , who , for the past few years ,
had been a widower , his daughter
Emiline , nyoungor daughter o ! somo
14 summers and a boy of 10. These ,
with the servants , lived a quiet , en
joyable and uneventful life in that
pleasant section near tho baso of
Mount lioyal. To Miss Emiline , a
beautiful and dignified young lady ,
life appeared all sweetness and in its
mostglowing and attractive colors ,
for she had a lover , a fine , frank
manly youth , somo two or three
years her senior , and a scion of one
of the old English-speaking colonists ,
who are represented as being tho
most proud and domineering class in
the Dominion.
Archie Stevens has for some three
years been a constant and welcome
visitor at tho Maisonville residence ,
but of late had become the accepted
lover and betrothed ot Emiline , and
the full time of tho two was at pres
ent occupied in making plans for the
future and depicting a long and hap
py life in roseate colors. But man
proposes , and fate disposes , is an old
trite saying and became wretchedly
true in this instance ; for a few un
guarded and jealous words were giv
en utterance by Archie , when Emiline
impetuous , and dignified as a queen ,
arose from her silken couch and in a
few hasty words regretted .that she
had ever met him , then coldly inform
ed him that all was over between
iaiom and that she desired the be
trothal broken. Archie high strung ,
sensitive and smarting under the re
buke so justly administered , too
proud to admit his error , passionate
even as his intended bride , assisted
in enacting a formal parting with
seeming cheerfulness , and went to
the cit } ' . The next morning's train
conveyed him to the far west , from
whence occasionally his friends heard
of his exploits.
"When Emiline found that her lover
had departed , after the first flow of
tears and sting of remorse , she put
on an air of gaiety , and seemingly
thought but little of the occurrence
that severed two hearts , although in
her heart she felt that a lifetime of
misery was to be the future of each
of them.
In order to make the world believe
she was happy and still heart whole ,
she passed the scores of young men
by , giving her hand to JohnForster ,
an ossified old bachelor who had but
oneidea in his head to make money.
Thero was another thing he under
stood equally well , and that was ,
how to keep it. His manner was cold
and precise , in character he was mean ,
srroveling , contemptible and cunning.
But he , with the aid of her proud
spirit , obtained her , and wdien she
stood m church arrayed in her bridal
dress , she seemed to be the embodi
ment of beauty , grace and refine
ment.
"Well , the wedding was over ,
and after a short trip Emiline was
duly installed as the mistress otFor-
.ster's fine house on Cote St. Antoine ,
and she reveled in fine dresses , fine
furniture , a fine equipage and a stupid
incumbrance in the shape of an an
tiquated old fogy of a husband.
But John Forster was seemiugly
very proud of his beautiful young
bride , and the fact . of ownership •
seemed to warm even bis callous old i
heart , and for a while turn his <
thoughts in other channels than those '
of money grubbing , note-shaving and ;
the Quebec system of banking and •
finance generally. Then , again she i
added to his importance , and he <
plumed himself not a little in bear- , >
ing off so dainty .a prize , and it gave
him a malicious pleasure to meet her •
numerous old admirers in the park
or at the resorts with the graceful ;
Emiline on his arm. His smile as he ;
passed was cynical , for of course she i
prelerred him to them all ; for if she i
did not , then why did she marry him ? (
In her manner after their marriage
she became yery deferential and at- •
tentive to her old Adonis , and peri i
formed her duty to the letter , and so <
the old man really began to experi- •
ence a feeling akin to that of satis- ]
faction. He noticed that her girlish. 1
gaiety was all gone , and that she no , >
longer wished for the round and j
pleasureable excitements of the ball , -
room and opera , but the change-he <
considered was a decided improve- i
ment , for she was now Aire. Eorster i
and intended to drop all her former <
acquaintances or keep them at a rej j
spectable distance ; and he evidently 3
liked the change , for he kept away ]
from the club where he formerly called
to associate with liis cronies and ;
brother financiers , and found his way ;
homeward , and all through , those '
long evenings Emiline sat and played j
games ot chess or whist , or listened ;
to his gains or losses in the way of 1
business , or read political articles on 1
the in affairs be-
manner which were - j
ing conducted at Ottawa , of which. 1
the words conveyed no ideas to her
absentmind.
But day by day a silent and unex- (
plainable sorrow seemed to grow up- '
on her , andjvas continually gnawj j
jngatlierheart. She walked through. (
the * busy streets pf the city leaning'
on her husband's arm , but she "felt" ;
form at her side and
an unseen ever , 1
ac night , although she slept next his ]
heart , she felt that hers was far , far 1
away.
Then at times , when she was alone , j
with no human eye near to read her -
sad secret , then would her small ;
hands be clasped in the agony that 1
had required all her strength to con- '
ceal , her " fair head bent to the very j
dustwhilst ; for hours afterwards her ]
eyes would be swollen and red from ]
bitter weeping.
The summer months were spent 1
quietly at the resorts at St. Hillaire j

and Mont Beloil , and autumn found
them homo again in Montreal. One
evening in September one of thoso
heavy snow , sleet and wind storms so
frequent in tho fall occurred , and
Mr. Forster decided upon dining at
tho nearest club to the office rather
than proceeding to tho Cote in tho
face of that howling gale. Ho had
just comfortably seated himself and
was enjoying tho refreshing glow
of warmth instilled from quaffing an
excellent glass of burgundy , and was
giving liis orders to the obsequious
waiter , when his attention was at
tracted by tho conversation of two
gentlemen who occupied seats at the
little table behind him , and who with
all tho delightful assurance of youth
and good spirits imagined themselves
unheard.
• 'That looks like old Forster , " re
marked tho elder. "But still it can
not he , for he has never been known
to be away from home one evening
since his marriage. "
"Oh , no , I do not think that is he , "
said the other. "But say , Harry ,
have you seen the beautiful Emiline
since her marriage ? Why , she used
to be the life of the Hollands' par
ties. "
"No , I feel too much put outabout
it ; such a splendid woman to marry
such a money grubbing old idiot ,
find all on account of a foolish quar
rel with hot-headed young Archie.
Why , it has been the talk of our set
ever since , and those who have had
the news say that you never saw such
a wreck as it has made of him. How
ever , she is being well punished , for
with all her pride and consummate
tact , and the forced effort to keep up
appearances , it is plain that she is
the most miserable woman in exist
ence , and if old Forster had not been
the biggest fool in existence he would
have perceived it long ago. The old
adage that an old fool is the biggest
iool is well exemplified there , you
may be sure. "
Those words were sufficient. Fors-
ters appetite seemed to fail him sud
denly. The oysters and fish were un
touched. The game Jay there un-
tasted and no order for removal was
was given to the waiter , who gazed
from the other side of the room on
tho inactivity and sudden change
that seemed to have-overtaken tho
old man. Then Forster filled glass
after glass of wine and rapidly quaff
ed it and called for a bottle of brandy ,
which he nearly emptied- a few
draughts , when an inspiration seem
ed to seize him , and taking his hat
he hurriedly rushed into the open air.
Making his way through the blinding
storm to Cartier squarehe drove
out to the suburb of St. Saveur and
there demanded to be set down. Ho
paid the hackman and was left alone.
For a time he walked as though rea
son had left him , and then an air of
determination returned , and settling
his hat down over his brow in a very
prophetic manner , he turned his foot
steps deliberately homeward , and ,
after along tramp through the blind
ing sleet and the bitter blast , neither
of which seemed at all to concern him
in the leasthe , arrived at the mansion ,
to all appearances calm and collect
ed ; but it was but the counterpart
of the deceitful lull of the calm out
side.
side.He
He found Emiline pale and self-pos
sessed , as usual , and evidently wait
ing and wondering as to the cause of
his being belated. He seemed to be
quite as much at ease himself , even
going so far as to indulge in a little
gaiety , complimenting her on some
coquettish additions that set off her
splendid figure charmingly. So , seat
ing himself by her side and toying
with her sUken sash , he remarked :
"I am thinking of taking a short
journey , and , as it is only a business
trip ) it would only inconvenience me
to take you along ; but you will hear
from me , and meanwhile you know
how to amuse yourself don't you ,
Emiline ? "
He carefully scrutinized her , but
there was no conscious blush arose
to her pale cheek , nor could he ob
serve a change of expression in her
countenance or a tremor of her frame.
To all appearance he might as well
have been addressing one of his
pieces of statuary in the hall. How
ever , he had determined what to do ,
so biding her one of his characteristic ,
adieus , he ordered hip coachman to
bring a valise and start for the rail
way station.
When the door closed Emiline felt
as if a load had been lifted from her
heart. She knew that for some time
since her marriage had been the gos
sip at each party of the elite , and
each day she was relenting of the
part she took in causing the depart
ure of her lover , of whom she had
since heard nothing definite. He
wrote a letter to her once from a dis-
tant"point in California , which she
received shortly after her marriage ,
but she mustered up pride and cour
age enough to return it unopened ,
and now that her husband had gone
away she knew that gossip would be
ever ready with its thousand tongues '
to malign her , so that the only course :
that she could pursue soon determin
ed upon , and denied herself to all vis
itors and was strong in her purpose
not to go abroad until her husband's
return.
Shortly a letter was received from
him at Quebec and another from j
Montmorenci. Then a long silence. | :
The wearied wife wandered restlessly
and abstractedly through her finely
furnished rooms and tried by this
self-inflicted penance to .atone for tho
defection of her heart. She tried her
guitar , and the old songs they had
sung together would rise unbidden
her . The * stories she
to lips. verj se
lected to read she had read before 'in j [
company with her absent lover.
Turn where she would , all seemed
gloomy , and her cup of misery seem
ed quickly ; filling to the brim. She.
becamfe nervous from close confinej j ' j '
ment and started at every footfall ,
as day after day passed , and still no
letter from her husband. The time
had long since passed that was set
for his return , and poor Emiline was
in a dreadful state of suspense ; but
the letter came at last , one morning.
It was sealed with black , and . in its
contents it stated that whilst at
Tadousac , near the mouth of the
gloomy Saguenay , one day it was
found that Mr. Forster was sudden
ly missedand that everything tended
to show that he was accidentally
drowned. His hat , with his name
inside , - his handkerchief with his

initials , and his coat was found ; but
' all search for tho body had been un
availing.
Emiline silently perused its con
tents , and then quietly forwarded
instructions to the Bearehers to inter
tlio body , if found , and inclosed tx
liberal reward for the services thoy
had already rendered , in her behalf.
She was no hypocrite , and did not
I mourn deoply lor him , save in the •
outward garb of woe.
How tho news of the occurrence' '
got spread amongst the upper set , I '
or who forwarded theinformntion to
the Pacific , is of course , a mystery ;
but for a while the disappearance ot
Forster , and the fact that he left a
pretty widow , was tho all-absorbing ! i
. topic both at the clubs and the fash-
' ionable kettledrums. But tho news
got there all the same , and just as
Archie received , it he was about
starting for the Sandwich islands on
i the advice of his physician , but he at
once altered his course , and took tho
first boat from Los Angeles for
'Frisco ; in order to make rapid tran
sit to Montreal. The time he was
traveling he gave to decorum , and
on arrival at the Bonaventura sta
tion at once called a hack and drove
to the residence of tho sorrowing
Emiline. ' •
What the meeting was it is useless to
attempt to describe such scenes
occur but once in generations. Days
and months of wretchedness were for
gotten like some dreadful dream , and -
Archie received the admission that a >
woman who once loved him could
never forget him. She was once
again his own Emiline , rich , sorrow
ing , repentant and happy. Thus
days passed on. Every day Archie ;
called. He was rapidly recovering '
from his illness , but the travel and
expense had reduced his fortune , so
that now he had none to waste ,
j One evening they were sitting to-
l gether on the portico of the Forster
• mansion , enjoying the balmy breeze
that stirred the leaves of the maples
and brought sweet fragrance through *
the matted honeysuckle and climb-1
ing jessamine and arbutus that
shaded the porch from the glare of
the sunlight during the day and
made the spot a pleasant and cosy !
retreat for the evening. Her head
was upon his shoulder and her face j
was as radiant as a seraph's. They
spoke but lowly and at intervals ,
and the topic was their future home.
"Oh , Archie , " said Emiline , "take
me away from these painful associa
tions take me to any place in the
wide world , for Montreal has become
hateful to me. "
The lovers were too intent to no
tice that a shadow had been visible
passing towards them , but now a
well known and instantlyrecognized
voice proceeded from it with :
"Is that what you say my pretty
Emiline ? My death was merely a
ruse to try your constancy. It is a
pity to turn such a pretty comedy
into a tragedy , but I happen to fie
manager here , young man , " remark
ed Mr. Forster , for it was he Avho
had returned in the flesh , and if you
don't go out of this in 20 seconds I'll
blow the whole top of your head
off. "
The revolution produced by the
sudden reappearance of Forster
was too startling for nerves
that had borne so much already ,
and Emiline fainted , and was car
ried to her room. She survived the
shock but a week , but in that short
time since Archie's return they had
opened up their source of grief only
to regret that they did not bear and
forbear while it was yet time , and by
kindly concession endeavor to repair
the breach that irritation had made ,
and that a brief word timely put
would have amended.
Archie wandered around the city ,
demented , for a few days , when , hear
ing of the death of his beloved
Emiline be managed to obtain a
stolen glympse , which sight unsettled
his reason forever , and he became
hopelessly insane. Old Forster sold
out and went away , but it is said
that he is engaged in one ofthe west
ern cities in his old business of shear
ing the lambs and is now more miser
ly than ever. Detroit Echo.

A number of men and women who
have during the past year or two
lost their positions in the depai-t-
ments through the varied changes
which have been brought about by
the political operations ofthe party
in power have interesting incidents
connected with their lives. A couple
of days ago your correspondent ,
while passing up Pennsylvania
Avenue with a bureau officer , passed
a man named Wilkinson , who was
recently turned out of the office oi
the comptroller of the currency on
account of offensive partisanship.
The bureau officer , after passing
Wilkinson , turned to me and said :
"You recognize that man ? Yes ; well
there was an incident in the early
part of his life which connects him
in a way with one of the most promi-
nent Democrats in Ohio. A good
many years ago Wilkinson was
moving into a house at Spring
field , now one of the most pros
perous manufacturing towns in the
central part of the Buckeye State.
While his goods were being put into
the house and those belonging to the
outgoing tenant were being put on a
• wagon * a seedy-looking tramp came
up and inquired if he could get some
thing to eat , offering to assist in the
work if he was accommodated. The ,
outgoingtenaKt referred the trampT
to'the incoming tenant , and'tnelat-
ter took the wanderer into the house
and gave him a dinner. There was
not much attention paid to that
tramp , and for years those who
saw him on that day lost sight of
him. Finally he reappeared , how
ever , entered into the business of the
place and began to grow. He grew in
every sphere of life. He became
wealthy and influential. Afew years
ago. he was governor , and now he
has more property and money than
any man in his section of the state.
It is notneccessary for me to mention
hisname. He lives otSpringSeld yet
and is a very rich man. His name is
a household word throughout Ohio. * '

About Iiord Tcnn3'son's well-known
horror of publicity it is told that oneo ,
whenwalking in liis own grounds , ho
won informed tlmt Home enterprising
tourist was looking down on.him from n
tree almost ovor liis head. Tho enthu
siast was soon brought down from his
coign of vantage. Tho laureate , hotr-
over , secured a imgo boy to koop off all
intruders in future , ho boimr too short
sighted to notice them. Soon after thin
youth had begun his duties it happeri-
oil that tho Prince of Wales walked
over from Osborno to seo Mr. Tenny-
son. Arriving at tho poet's houso at
Freshwater , ho asked the boy whether
Mr. Tennyson was in. Tho boy , think
ing ho studied a rat , said : "And what's
that to you if he " h ? " "Toll him , " said
H. B. H. , "that tho Prineo of Wales
wishes to see hint. " Tho knowing
youth thereupon , not to bo caught ,
said : "You don't take mo to bo so
green as that ? " and .to empathize his
remarks ho "placed his thumb to hi3
nose and spread his fingers out. " The
prince , however , had parlej-ed snfii-
ciently , so taking tho young hopeful by
tho collar ho placed him aside and walk
ed into tho house. Loudon Globe.

firm of Tolson Bros. , shoe and clothing
dealers , of this city , held a lucky ticket
in the December drawing of the Louisi

ter called at his store last Monday to
learn the facts. In reply to our question
Mr. Tolson said : "Yes , sir ; I held a
lncky ticket in the December drawing.
I have just returned from New Orleans ,
where I went to get the money. I re
ceived three bills , two § 1,000 and one
§ 5,000 , § 2,500 in actual cash. " The re
porter asked how much he invested. Mr.
Tolson's reply was , "I spent $10 for ten
one-fortieth tickets. One of the tickets
No. 43,085 drew $100,000 , and my part
amounted to § 2,500 , " He said he would
continue in business at the same stand
where they lead big drives iu shirts ,

man over his luck. He certamh * ought
to feel very good on winning .such a big
amount of money these hard times.
Heroic ] TIin i liawr iic < .
A herd of wild cattle was being driven
through the town of San Diego. A lit
tle child was playing in the street not
far from the spot where the cattle were
passing , when one of the bulls a hujre
creature with large horns made a sud
den rush at the poor bairn. To add to
the terror of the scene the drover was
tipsy ; and'in ' trying to turn the furious
animal he fell from his horse. Warning
yells arose from the spectators as they
beheld the terrible fate from which , as
it seemed , nothing conld save the child.
At this very moment a lady happened to
come into the street , and the noise of
the tumult at once attracted her atten
tion. She saw the child's appalling dan
ger at a glance , and immediately sprang
into the empty saddle. She succeeded
in catching up with the wild bull and
threw her shawl over its head just as it
was about to charge the child. She
then , withont leaving the saddle , lifted
the child to her lap and took it away to
a place of safety. This brilliant act of
bravery evoke round after round of ap
plause from every one who .witnessed it.
