She was on ly gone a minute; then, -with a com ically rueful face, she begged me to come, to. We found the deserter cosily tucked beside the very girl he had admired the day before, for both of them were occupying the same car-step, while tde rest of the gay group were camped on the plat form. Of course I laughed, while Madge evinced her presence by reaching over and energetically pulling a curl of the handsome head that was so dangerously hear the young lady's rosy cheeks. Tom started, looked round, and coolysaid: "Ah, Madge! I thought it was you. "Well, 1 can't very well move just nowj but, 3Iiss Ellis, if you can look over your shoulder you will see my sister. Miss Fairfax, allow me to present Miss Ellis." The scamp certainly-showed good taste; for Miss Ellis was very love ly, both in feature and expression. She blushed a little, but bowed gracefully as her position admitted ; and her voice was singularly sweet when she said, "I lind that Mr. Fairfax is an old schoolmate of my brother's. They were at Toronto together !" , It was Madge's turn to blush now; not a little, but furiously, while Tom'a mischievous eyes danced with delight at her contus ion and I did some Yankee "guess ing" about what "brother," which proved quite correct, and then I sat down to watch further develop ments and to enjoy the happiness before me. O 3outh, and hope, and beauty ! What brave possessions ye are! Ye hold in your magical glasses such rare libations, and ye drink such eager draughts, believ ing the visions they bring to heart and brain. The train roared on. ".Boss Tweed" came out and stood on tho platform of his car, watching the strange tjesolato lands wo were passing; gentlemen boh'soled them selves with cigars ; ladles tried all conceivable changes of position and read persistcntlj ; whllu all the hap piness and delight in the whole train seemed to concentrato In the knot of young people about me. Madge sent for the hamper, the young ladies opened their baskets, and whan wo reached Cheyenne I left? Turn, seated oil a reversed water paJI, With all the' gay gjrjs around pampering him by oilers of the dalntost morsels, and my queenly Madge as nierry as the rest, direct ing at lijni a peqetual volley of saucy speeches. They were all going through to Sacramento. My prophetic fcoul told mo what would happen, for the Jrriprpaw.neijV )ii a JJulluian car for a week of two mutually faqsoiiitilile peoplo has an an almost certain re sult. Nothing in Euclid is surer than a flirtation, while something njorp serjqip is very apt to take place. Tonj gave lift: his qwn verr bjon of the story, declaring fate had boon too much for him, for during those days travel he had grown sq used to caring for Miss Ellis, so ac customed to playing a devoted lover "just to tease Madge," that when their destination was attained the force of habit made him still seek thji young hdy? and "she seemed so fond of him, that "rfaljy now, you know, a fellow finds himself 'in a queer position, am I had to marry hef just tosavp hpr foelln!" The pretty bride had heard alj this beforo, so sho only rejoined with tho meekest air : "I'm trying to show how sensible I am of his pure benevolence." "Altogether an accident!" but What ft delicious consequence! I am telling yqu a true story, dear friends, and if you'wlif find but th history of many a marriage it wil be found to havo an equally small beginning. "And Madge?" I think I hear you say. Well, Madgo was going to Sacramento to complete her en gagement to that same brother of Miss Ellis who had known "Tom" at Toronto, and Tom asserts that she rules him splendidly. I'd give something to see her eyes flash again, but to-morrow I am to say good-lyto rny b,oro and heroine, who' sail for home, at (Ja.pe ljreton j and Madgo is keeping house In Sacramento. A. S. Dimock. THE BAD BOY, "M. QuaJ" in the .Detroit Free Press.1 Chapter J. Introductory. His name was John Henderson Tomp kins, and he was going on thirteen years old. He had freckles all over his nose, chewed plug tobacco, and loafed around select schools and put tin ears on boys smaller than him self. His father was killed by a Canada saw-log, his only sister slept In the silent tomb, and his mother divided her time between gossiping and canvassing for money for the heathens in Africa. Chapter II. Thudy. Thus it will be seen that there was no one to give John Henderson Tompkins any domestic attention beyond an occasional whack with a slipper, which made him the worse. He wasn't sent to school, never had to take a dose of castor oil, was allowed to go around with a letter in the postofllce and his pants supported by a magnificent belt of sheep twinPi and If ho wasn't home by ten o'clock qt njght his mother felt per fectly suro that he would dump down somewhere and be homo In time for codfish and potatoes in the morning. Chapter III. Shameful JVc glect. John "Henderson Tompkiu's mothor npyer took him on her kueo, and asked him if he knew what was beyonu tne ungut stars, and if ho knew where'd he'd go to if he grew up an awful liar and a horse4hIef. She never told him about tho Children of Egypt, Moses in the bulrushes, or Daniel in the lion's den, and it Is no wonder that he grew up to be a bad boy. She didn't never have sticking plasters ready when ho got a cut, and Sun day learnings there was no ono to rub him behind his pars, fill his eyes with soap and water, and comb his hair the wrong way. Chapter IV. Hi Fcculiari He. Everything which happened in th village was laid at -hn Hen derson Tojnpkiu'a door. "It's some of that boy's work, they said, when ever a bushel of plums, a water melon, or a peck of peaches myste riously disappeared. He was proba bly guilty of everything charged, as when he died they found where he lad hidden seventeen stolen cow bells, forty Sxesi tver so many saw bucks, fifteen or twenty front gates, and I can't remember haw many snow-shovels. Chapter V. Dotcn on Him. In time, as the reader was informed in a jirevjous chapter, the adult male population of tho village got down on John Henderson Tompkins. Old maids jabbed at him with um brellas, merchants flung pound weights at him, shoemakers dosed him with strap oil, and grocers al ways looked around for John Hen derson when they wanted to heave out bad eggs and spolletffrults. Chapter VI. Hi Ambition. You might think that they would havw eventually succeeded In break ing the boys' spirit and dashing his hopfes, but they couldn't da it He had an ambition which nothing could' check. He wanted to be a bold pirate and sail the raging main, and he wa3 patiently waiting for the time to come when he could wear No. 10 boots and swear in a voice like the echoes of a bass viol. He would be content to crawl into hen-roosts and to creep around horse barns for a few years, but then but-then . Chapter Vn. Effort at Be form. Some of the more philan thropic citizens made strenuous ef forts to reform the boy. They locked him up in asmoke-house for a week; they clubbed him until he couldn't yell, and they held him under a pump until he was as limp as a rag, but as soon as they let him go he went right back to his old habits again. CnAPTEB VHT. Kearing 7iia End. John Henderson Tompkins bad kept this thing up for eight or nine years when our story opens, and he was nearing his end. Jus tice overtakes the guilty sooner or later, and justice was laying low for tliis bad boy. He had the cheek to believe that he would live to be a hundred years old, but he was to bo taken down a peg or two and Ills mother left an orphan. Chapter IX. JTie End. One day, while in the heyday of his wickedness, John Henderson Tomp kins came upon something new in the line of plunder. It was a pile of little cans labelled "nitro-glyc-erine hands ofT dangerous poison, &c," but he couldn't read and he didn't "care a copper. He carried a can behind the meeting-house and sat down on a rock to open it. There wasn't any guardian angel around to tell him that he'd get busted if he fooled with that can and so he spit on his hands and gave it avhack on the stone. Chapter X. Obituary. The folks all ran out, and after a good deal of trouble they found and sep arated the pieces of meeting-house from the pieces of boy, and they got together enough of John Hender son to fill a cigar box and answer as a basis for a funeral. They burled the lemajns in a quiot nook, and tho grave-stone maker put a llttlo lamb on the head-stone, to show that John Henderson Tompkins was meek and lovoly. Spring Bonnets., Fashion dictates' this season that the bonnet should be of the same shade as tho toilet worn wjth jt- As black is much adopted with blue in termixed, such as black slclllennc and turquoise blue ostunies,a, French milliner has designed an exquisite capote, made either in pale blue faille or Eng lish crepe, with a quilled crepe edge and garland of double 'forget-me-nots mixed with a garland of wood violets wand, the uflm. The contrast of the pale delicato hluo aud the rich dark violet l exceed ingly happy." Another vers lady like bonnet is made -of black chip; t has a large black satin bow on the left siqe: a brilliant WjhJg resting against tflp bow? and tapering higher than tho crown. Upon the edge of the hack of tho bonnet there is a cluster of Marguerites. The Eng lish capotes havo both curtains and strings. The prettiest have a very long jet fringe in front and at the side princeie roses, either flesh or sulphur qojqr mingjpd with, tulle. White straw mlxfedrwjth blaok vel vet will be' much worn this year. A laniballe bonnet, with wide velvet edge, turned up at the back, only, with a whito ftfather encircling the crown, is mado expressly to be worn with costumes composed of black velvet and white woolen materials. Steel arrows, Jet and steel-blue buckle, are still to be seen on bon nets, but a new and prettier orna ment is a dagger made , of yrquoi fcts, ILL ADOPT THE WATER WOHHS, The central city of the West Quite proud of late has grown, And feels lc can no longer wait A goo sized pond to own.

Then was aome improvement In the business transacted at the banks to-day. Money is easy at le gal rates, and the banks are dis criminating a shade less closely than heretofore. BUSINESS wa perhaps a little lighter In a gen eral way, than for the previous days of tho week, owing no doubt to the unpleasant weather. Prices are unchanged, except on sugars, which were sold at one-eighth of a cent off from yesterday's quotations. - Omaha merchants are now pur suing a liberal polioy toward West ern merchants that is sure to bring them a rich harvest in trade for the future. Prices in Eastern markets are closely watched, and as soon as any change is observed that will favor buyers, It Is conformed to on all orders filled, while on tho other hand theyareslow to take advantage of advances. The beneficial reenlta of this poli oy are already felt in a larger in crease of business frorrj points where other cities are competing for the trade. The quotations below may be relied upon as substantially coi reot On large orders they may be shaded somewhat however by good buyers. OMAHA MABKETS. Carefully Corrected DaUr DRY GOODS. j.
