[The plan, which was approved at 8 previous meeting, has _already been mentioned in Taz Tmerse] The Evanston people, it was thought, would extend the drive north to their village. The work from Huran street gouth, should prop- erly be done by the city, but Mr. Nixon thonght, 28 it would be & great improvement to the North.

They would probably be paid the urhount expended by the city, or at lesst s portion of it, Mr. Winston asked if there would not be some diffculty in getting the Suporior Send Company, which hes possession of & portion of the beach, to suspend operations. « A gentleman stated thet he understood that Mr. Leloyne, the ‘head man” of the Sand Company, had signified 3 willingnesa to give up | ‘his Jease. ¥, d £ Professor Swing inquired if any estimato o’ the cost by lots had been made. He thought every property-owner interested would give something to help the Asscciation to sccomplish its object. The cost should be divided among them. The Presidont remarked that almost every one ought to be willing to give at least €100, 23 the value of their property would be greatly en- hanced, Mr. Ogden and himself and given the right of way throngh their lend. x. Nixon said the cost permile of the present drive was S80,000. The one they proposed to constract was not over Lalf a mils in length. Some conversation was then had sbout con- tinuing the drive to Indiana sireet, and in regard to making an assessment upon those who bave taken shares of stock. Both projects were sp- proved of, but no action was taken, as the Ex- ecutive Committee alone bave power in the premises. b Those present who had not subscribed for stock were requested to do 50, sud John F. Staf~ ford said he would take three shares, Professor 8wing two shares, and John A, Yalo threo shares. The meeting then adjourncd. THE CITY IN BRIEF. Dir. H.

Fafr sgainst Ler motler, Mrs. Lane, was brought to 8 conclusion yester: day. Tho juty returned a vendict in favor of Mra. Fair, restoring to hor the 8,000 in Mrs, Lane's hands, and §600 interest. Neither of the ladies were in Court at the time tha verdict was announced. Hglf an hour after the above verdiet wag re- corded, a small boy frum the ofiice of Provines & Jobnson entered the International Hotel with, & note for Mra. Lane. 5 The note was from Mrs, Lene's counsel, ap- prising her of her defent in the suit. She read the note hurriedly, and then or it like an eggehell. A terriblelook af deepair eattled up- on her foce, and for an instant the sank in o chair and buried her face in _her hands. Then sterting up, she crushed her black straw hat on her head, threw an old shawl overbhar shoulders, and started down the staircase, She went straight to the drug store on the cor- ner of Eearny streot, and celled for buif an ounce of lsudenum’ Tha druggist knew her, and asked, *“What do you want of i, Mrs. Lone?” "Bho replied: *Oh! I cannot slee) without lsudanum. Ever since my deughtor's trouble I've been sonervous that I canuot.geb anyrest unless I take gsomething.” = ‘The druggist put-up the drug and copscien- tiously took his half-dollar. Then NMrs. Lane started for another drag store ou Kearney street, Hero she asked for half an ounce of chloroform, eaying thet she bad the toothache | and wonted to refieve it. This drug was also utup and duly paid for. _ All this time .the Todiy wos apparsoily very calm, meither of the druggists having uoticed amything pecular in her manrer or langusge, From this drug store she went to another, and again asked for chloro- form. Here, tao, & small vial was put up for her; which béing paid for, the lady thrust into her pocket with the otherbottles and sailed out into the stroet. Onco in the streef, Mrs. Lane clutched her three bottles, and with an exultant but despair- ing smile on her features, struck out for the hotel, She mounted .the staircase, and, after Dalf & hour's steady climbing, stood in tho deor- wey of No. 62. She went in, placed the bottles on the table, took off her black straw hat, throw ber shawl into s chair, and drawing some note paper toward her, began to write. She wrote steadily for .an hour, at the end of which time she had four letters written. Then she partially closed the door, leeving it ajar, and propared Derself to die. i _ Half an hour afterward the chambérmaid on that fioor heard the modt frightful groansin No. 62. She stood o minute in alarm, then peeped in through the crack.: - Bhe saw Mrs. Tiane lying on the bed writhing and groaning, and like a gonsible immediately screamed and ran, Bhe shot down tho stairossy like s siaped cat, and at the foot tumbled heels'over head over a gor- zeously attired young man in & light overcont. This was Mr. J. B. B. G. X. McKibb n, & boerder in the Interna Hotel. The girl could only gusp ‘*Ars, Lene! Suicide!!" and then, draw- Ing her ekirts tightly around ber, fainted with great propioty. - Mr. AfcKibbin didn’t etop to bring the girl to, ‘but made & bee-line’ for No. 62. He pushed the door open and welked in. To ‘his horror Mrs. Tene said: - “Oh! Mr. McKibbin, I've taken Poison, _ Run quick for Laurs and tell bor to come and see me before I die!” Mr. McKibbin waited to hear no more. He went down the | stairs like s scared rabbit, ten steps at a time, Inthe lower hall he shouted to-some one to send for a doctor at once, that Mrs, Lane had talion poison, * Quick for your life " he yelled, “T'm going for Laut: And’ then Mr. MoKibbin went up Jackson street, making the best.time on record. Down Kearny street.Mr. . ibbin went at a Fy:e which wonld have left Goldamith Meid hull down at the quarter-pole; and -up. the staircase of No, 420 he'bolted”sod ‘shanbled like a frightened mule. Meanwhile, another 'messenger hed been de- epatched for Dr. 0'Donoell. ‘The Doctor listened calmly to tho messenger's hurried recital, and then, shonidering his-stomach-pump, walked ith grest diguity and- deliberation to {ho hote]. The Dactor Tound Mre: Lisne 'lying on the bed, ifutter stupor. She was eurrounded by threa or four lady sympsthizers, who “were shrieking, wringing their bands, and doing their utmost to do nothing. The Doctor rigged his stomach pump, 3nd in & few minutes bad & fine stream of chlorof xudanum, and other pleasant things flowing into a basin, Ina few minutes | this treaiment had its effect, and Mrs. Lane re- covered conecionsziess, but' was very wesk, an irrational in her talk. ¥ B ‘While wsiting for tho Dactor to arrive, tha { th ladies who had gzn 'to help Mrs. Lane dis- covered three letters—the -letters she had writ~ ten—lying on the table. - One wes_ eddressed to 8 ladyin the house, another to Mrs, Laura D. Fair, and the third to ‘The people of San Fran- ciaco.” The latter was evidently & very long Totter, but it wss tightly sesled, and the ladica could not gee the contents, The lady to whom one of the lotters was addressed opened hers. It was written on & sheet.of note-paper, and was hurriedly ecrawled in a cramped d. It read as follows: 8ax Faxcisco, Oct, 10, MRS, —, My DEAR F21eND: I am golng to’ lesve the world and get rid of all my troubles, ~ ¥ou will £ind some of my clothes on a_chair near the window, ‘Huva the clean dress put on me whed Iam desd, and ‘have the soiled ones washed and given to Laura, ' You will ind 2 leather trunk in. my room, locked, ad” ad- dressed to Mrs, Levy, Indisnoplis.

In s few minutes after Mrs. Lane had recov- ered conacioueness, Mrs.-Fair-came panting up the long etaircnse accompanied by Mr.- McKib- | bin. e entered the room and gave one look et the half-animate figure on the bed. “ Well ! mother,” she exclaimed in a_pes- sionate tone, * What's this ? Good gracious! do you want - to bring . more disgrace on” ua ! Havn't vo made seneations enough that you should go and do this 7', 5 ““Hush! child!” exclaimed the mother in a low, faeble voige, “ I've nothing to live—for |—I to—diol" and with this ehe fell into —wanted—1 & violent fit of weeping. “ Well,” eaid Mrs, Fair—her anger now rising to the ligheat pitch—* then why didn't you tuke enough of the stuff to finish you, and meke one job of it 7" - At this speech the ladies in theroom wero horror-stricken, and one or two_ of them hastily left the room. . v ¢ Oh, Laura, don't be angry,” murrured the woman, ““but whydid you drag me.into the court, and why did you put that doar little child on thoe stand to ewerr against its grandmother ? Ob! Laurs, you are Lilling me—yoi srq killing me. I want todie! (turning to the z‘m:hams), why didn't you let me die " “ Look here,” replied Mras.

You know she did, and yet you and your lawyers try to meke her out a liar.” At this instant some one handed Mrs. Feirthe letters. She opened hers, read it bastily, and then crushed .1t into ber.pocket. She merel; looked 2t the superecription on the other, P then stuffed that into her pocket also, *‘ Well, she's out of ‘danger, ain't she?” | asked Mrs. Fair of the doctor. The doctor eaid be hoped go. ‘* Well, I don’t seo that I cpn do siny good; 5o I'll go,” the said. And after a few mare plepsant little paesages between mother and danghter, tho letter venished snd did not again appear on the" scene. A Once during the cvening she eent down to the hotel tq seo how | her mother , bub thiat wes all. Mrs. Lane kept on_ improvisg, and by 9 o'clock she was out of all_danger. There were some doubts ex- pressed bf many- as - to - whather Alrs, Lane had really taken poison. It ‘was thought shehad In his. merely got up the scene s a menns of getting her daughter to her in the_hope of effecting & reconciliztion, The fac} of Jor leaving her door open and msking.2 noiso wag held to be evidence in support-of this theory.

I bur- ried out and found every man, women, and child in the placn fogtifying their crop against the in- vader. Bome were digging ditchos and turning the waters of the nearost stream info the dyke, while ofherg ware piling up dry brushwood, ready 10 baignited whon the enemy tpproached.

The hogsand chickens were let loose on the destroyer, but they soon grew eatinted with the feast, and still the locusts pressed on. And when satlast the despairing farmers withdrew and gave up the fight, all that night the locusts fell on their roofs like hail- stones, and crawled in through every nook and crevice in their dwellings. The next morning when they sroso at day- light to inspect the oxtent of their dnmages, 5 woful_sight presented itself. The country was_ indeed »'weste; months of hard labor and hagea of a handsome return from the crops had faded away as the blade of grass before the locust; not & trace remained to indicate that the seed had ever been planted, or thet a grand tract of sway- ing grain glistened in the sunboams on the morning before. But petiently the work was recommenced, while the locusts passed on in their westward course of desolation. The In- dians hed a rich feast. To the red man’s palate aroast of locusts is a delicious treat. This in- sect has a decided dislike to eage brush, and although it condidors it a good shelter for ita young, atill it will not devour a leaf of that pun- gent shrub.” S A REMARKABLE REUNION. ° Meeting of nn Unbroken Family of Thirtecen NMembers in Maince-Une common Instances of Longevity.
