The day was certalply unsuited to rubbers, and Charley Eated them in apy weather. He was calm, bat it was the calmness of despair. Days’ and weeks, A whole month, went by, and Charley did not come back to us. My family decided that something must be done. They appointed a conference to meet at my house, which was already rented, and the new leseee desired immediate possezs'on. My family were far from sympathizing tn my awful suspense about Charley. Tucir con- victions were very decided. “He must have gone and drowned himseit that very morning,” they sald, and added, with 80 alr of commetdation and relief, that per- haps it was the best thing he coula do under tne Circumstances. My heart was full to bursting. 1 flew into a passion of grief and rage,and drove them all from the house. “You'll send tor us when you get cooled down,” they sald. And doubtiess I should, if Aunt Maria had not been belated at the family conference, and arrived whee my passion was at its lowest ebb.

Charley and I had always said we'd rather die than board or keep board- ers.

I never In the worid could have cained courage to pull it. Fortunately a young man came out. I slipy in, and he Slammed the door after him and went whistling his way down the street. I crept by the parlor floor, where some people stood ia groups, talk- ing and laughing quite unconcernedly ia the awiul presence of death itself. The dishes were clattering on the dumb watter; a woman came down the stairs, smiling and happy, cloaked and hooded for the opera. - Sac carried @ huge bouquet In her hand, and ] wondered Bow she could pass the parlor door.

Aunt Marla was already laggling about the kite x olleioth, and nothing would do but we 1 ig all go down and see that It really did sticx the floor. Mr. Chandler was a short, stout m: with Searcely apy hair on bis head, and « 'sioré. little nose that be had to keep perches in the air so his spectacles wouldn't rad off. Lis eyes were very round, end his cheeks were iat and red, and a fringe of white beard gave him some- how a very benevolent cir that was calculated to inspire confidence. We descended into what seemed to me the very bowels of the earth, and 88 We entered the big cavernous gloomy Eltchen there was ascamper that betoxened fats, abd an army of Croton-bugs fled at our approach. I was weak and nervous, and utter- ing an exclamation of terror clung to Mr, Chandler's arm. e “God bless my soul!” said Mr. Chandler, starung back. “Oh, 13 you! Don’t be fright ened, madam. Don’t be a: ail frightened. “I'll take care of you.” He had himself been considerably shaken by the size and quantity of this subterranean army, and it was evidently a great relief to him Wo fitd somebody even more startled than him- self.

Aunt Ma- ria seemed more to the purpose. She gathered up her skirts from tne fi and seemed pre- pared either for battle or ilgut and was the 1ast one to mount the lower stair. Mr. Chandler prctected me all the way to Aunt Maria’s door, and bade me night, with the hope that was arranged satisfactorily. “You've as good as feathered your nest al- ready,” sald Ann Marla. “I’m glad you wore yur black dress.” ee had no other fit to put oa,” I replied. ‘Is just as well,” she continued, “for I told him you were a widow—there’s no ‘use enterin’ inte partic‘lars abont Charley ——” “IUs nobedy’s business about Charley.” “That's what I thought; Widow, and I only menuoned azo mere & NIEST wins. didn’t speak of the boys, ir you don't iook old "a dream they bt up to my room— aad Viinx ’em ri As for the boys, around tili night-fall, and thea way.” was all Aunt Maria’s fault—every bit of it. bewildered at first I tried toreason with my husband, and persuade him that, after all, it was what might have been expected.

In vain Mr. Chandler mildly remonstrated upon the loss of two over- coats and a set of razors. They knew nothing of the way I felt, or how my heart beat some- times when at twilight I saw a big, b: 2 shouldered, sandy-| fellow standing there, with broken boots. It took mea good walle to grow calra and collected, and in the meanwhtie he had eaten a many slices of bread and meat, and perhaps stolen something from the hat rack In the lower hall.

I couldn't gtve him up; I wouldn’t. I got so tired of Mr. Chandler, with his bland “respectability, his fuvereat broadclotn, and his high hat, bis ever- Teady money, and bis never-ending remon- strance and advice.

The trata had left Erle and gone perhaps a dozen miles when a couple of officers surprised me by put- ting me under arrest and clapping handcuffs on my wrists and manacies on my feet. In vain I proteated. They would not believe that lwas not Wilkes Booth. To add to the un- Pleasantness of the thing, and a fact which also gave color to the beilef that I was the President's assassin, {t was well known that Booth had interestsin_the oll regions of Penn- sylvapla and had been there a number of times.

But the officers would hot Hsten to him, and it was not until Titus- Ville was reached, where every man, wom:n and child knew me, that the handcuffs and mapacies were removed from my wrists and ankles and I was allowed my liberty, I have the photograph which furnished the clew to ‘the Officers who arrestea mein my possession now.” QUEER INSECTS. Subterranean Borers Three Hun- dred Feet Below the Surface. (Gold Hill (Nev.)

Su- perintendent McDougal found quite a number of them by Soaking and washing the clay, and they are no defunct relics of antedl luvian times, but are all alive and kicking, in- credible as it may appear.

Sensible Adyice on Training Horses. Forty-six years ago, David Lewis, then a handsome, round-headed Welshman, was darly- ing from Utica, Onelda county, to Hamilton college, having a load of lads returning after a Fi ping vecavon © their studies, As he neared iddie settlement attention was called to a farmer maltreating a colt which could not and would not keep up in his work with an older horse harp‘ beside it. David, displeased at the unreasonable farmer, murmured, *Tu-ra- Ju-ral,” (but did not swear,) and stopped for the farmer to come to the road-side, and the two commenced in Welsh. We colleg2 boys had no Welsh professor, and were ignorant of the language. The tongues of David aad his countryman had a short spat. As we started on our way, I asked for a translation of the We Gialogue.

The Strange Tree that Got Mad and imAgreen| Made lweif Utterly Di bie. (Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise, May 29.) A gentleman of this place has a tree which Is @specits of acacia, It was grown from a seed brought from Austrailia, The tree is now a sapling some eight feet in height, and it ts in full foliage and growing rapidly. It 1s legumi- nous and very distinctly shows the character- = Of the mimosa, or sensitive plant. Regu- iy evening, about the time the “cnickens go to 1 "the tree goes to roost. ‘The leaves told together, and the ends of the tender twigs coil themselves up like the tall of @ well-conditioned pig. After one of the twigs has been stroked or handled, the leaves move uneasily and are in a sort of mild commotion for a minute or more. All this was known about the tree, Dut it was only yesterday that it was discover that the tree had in it much more of life and feeling than it had ever before been credited with. The tree being in quite a Small pot, one which it was fast outgrowing, it ‘Was thought best to give it one of much larger size, Yesterday afternoon the tree was trans- ferred to its Dew quarters. It resented the operation of its removal to tne best of its abil- ity. Arriving at his residence about the time the trees hi been transplanted the gentlemin found the house in a grand commotion, Oo asking what was up he was told that they had twansplanted the tree according to orders and the operation bad ‘‘made it very mad.” Hardly had it Been placed in its new quarters before the leaves began to stand up in all directions like the hair on the tatlof an angry cat, and soonthe whole plant was inaquiver. ‘Tals could have been endured, but at the same time {t gave out an odor most’ pungent and sicken- tr t such a smell asis given off by rattie- shakes aud many other kinds of snakes in sum- her when teased, This odorso filed the house ind Was 80 sickening that 1t was found neves- tary co open the dcurs ani windows.

Physical Eaucation. In A recent mayazine article Dr. Felix L. O3- wald makes a@ vigorous plea for the better pays- teal education of children and youth. The subject 18 one which ought to attract wide Pubulc interest, and be taken up by teackers, Preachers and other agents for Influencing the pularmicd., There is danger, witu the hot jouse processes for forcing tal growth in our schools, and the great demands upon the brain and tbe small demands upon the body made by the business life of mea who are not farmers cr mechanics, taat we shall become an effemiuate nation. ‘The aim of most of our educational institutions 13 to cram the pupils’ mirds with memorized facts and forms, allowing their bodies to take care of them- selves. In the boys’ schools there 13 a chance for athletic exercises, such as bali- Playing and rowiug, but only.a few sta- denis engage ib these sports. The lad who Makes his mark in the school and is the pride of the professors Is usually the one who gives bis whole time to study and recitation, 1a some of theschools for giris a mild form of gymnastics, called calisthenics, 1s practised, Dut it goes for Uttle tn the way of thorougi physical training. The ordinary movements of the day give the schoolboy or schooigiri pleaty of exercize for the legs, bat almost’ none for the arms. In running about the house and to school and back the laziest child performs the feat of supporting and propelling the body with one foot rematuing on the ground at jeast eight thousand times. But what have the arms done in the meanwhile? Carried a chair acrcss the room perhaps, held a book, and con- yeyed food to the mouth. To equalize this dif- ference between the arm and the less, Dr. Oswald thinks, should be the primary object of physical culture. He advises the fitting up in every city house of a special room for arm ex- ercises, such as hurling, swinging aad iltting, and gives some practical suggestions a3 to tle apparatus needed. An old bolster and a cushion target, he says, will do for the propulsive exercises. There should be a pair of swiuging rings suspended about four feet above the iloor, over # stratum Of Old quilts and carpets. Healih-lifcs can be mace out of weighted buckets or sand-bags with strap handies. He would add a knotted Tope, fastened to the celiiug by means of a Screw-hook, and hangivg down in a single or ccuble chain, which children soon learn to climb by the hand-over-hand process, thu3 ttrepgthening the biceps and flexor muscles, to whose development the quadrumana owe thelr peculiar arm power. Thea he would en- courage tue youngsters to turn the hall into a race course in cold weather, and to get up run- ning matches out-of-doors when the seasoa Periits. In its general invigorating effect on the organte syste:n, he says, running surpasses every ower kind of exercise An {n-door gymnasium for older peopte can ted Up, Dr. Oswald teils us, lor $50, and ie thinks will be as useful as a private ltorary. v sowlug 13 bis deseripUoa of the essenual of such a promoter of health aud long A spring-board and leaping-gauge; 2. a iad 3.

The need for @ thorough reform tn popular methods of education is hardly overstated by Dr. Oswaid. He finds that in Mas3actfusetts, Ohio and North Carolina, which are taken as represeniative states of their respective sec- Uons, only three schools in a thousand pay any attention to physical training. Tne most essential thing of al! 1a neglected and lets to chance—showlog children and young people how to build up strong bodies and teaching them the primary laws of bealth.

Trivun The New Thing in Shoes, {London Truth, May 12.) Japsnese robes, adapted to harmonize with the Corset-moulded waist and European bon. Ret, were a la mode last winter. Some foreign leaders cf fashion intend this summer to £2 farther in the direction of Orientalism by Wearing, in seaside casinos, Japanese shoes. ‘The Japanese shoe accommodates itself to the anatomy Of the foot. It Is rounded and wide at She toe and narrow at the heel. Tae uppers are Of fine straw, plaited openly and lald over Some bright-colored lining. The soles are of thick leather. In our climate the leather up- per is requistte, but there is no reason why it Should not be cut ata Japanese and prettily embroidered like an Indian moecaila. [a shoes thug made, stout or deformed feat would not be at the disadvantage they now are. The easy size at the rounded end would afford con- cealment to protuberances. To be tolerably well off, in the ordinary boot the foot must b3 very slim, There is no handsomer ovdjact than human foot which has been allowed to grow up in liberty and ina mild and dry climate. Nor is therea more ung!caotly objest than one tbat bas been deformed by tight, narrow-toed boots. Observe with what care the Parisienne at Trouville—tho igh the beach there 1s smootn fastens on, before goes into the water, her sandalled bathing shoes. If her feet looked. well bare, she would be as carefnl to display them nude as she ts to cover them up. Is there anything more ridiculously ugly than a European boot, which has taken the form ofa icular foot, when seen apart from its ha- tual wearer? I have known of firtations begun at watering places which might have led up to the bymeneal altar; but for impru- dent exhibitions of boots at bed-room doors in hotel corridors. Tht not be so Fidiculously tell- acause, it be- ing more easy, it would not be forced by the ‘Wearer’a foot into a particular shape.

IN. ¥.* Times.) The American Canoe Association has tssued the program of its second annual meeting, to be held at Lake George on the 11th, 12th, and 13th ef August next. There are to be thirteen Taces, including every variety of race in which @ cance can possibly engage, and as the canoe ists are to camp together on an island, they ‘will have every opportunity to study one au- oth er’s canoes, out of the water as Well as in Wt. At the Lake George meeting last Aagast, when the American Cadoe association was formed, there were thirty-oae canoes present; and as the as:ociation has since that date Dearly quadrupled its membership, It is under- Stood that at least seventy-five ‘canoes will find their way to Lake George next August. The impulse given to can by the forma- tion of the American Cant ssoclation was greater than the most sanguine friends of the Sport had ventured to hope. Three canoe clubs united to form the association, but in less than eight months afterward eleven new ciubs had been formed and had enrolled themselves on the list cf the association Meanwatle, hun- dreds of men throughout the country had dis- covered the existence of the cruising canoe, and had furnished themselves with canoes witout connecting themselves with any cind. Some idea of the growth of the demand for canoes may be gained from the fact that ali the half- dozen cance builders in the country fiad tt im- possible to keep up with their orders, and ono rm, which, with the aid of ingenious ma- chinery, turns out five canoes daily, 13 still Unable to meet the demands made upon 1".

However this may be, it is Cart that aregatta must always be’a promin-nt any large meeting of cAnoeists, if for no other reason than Uhat it faraishes an aitractive spectacle. It should be remem) ret. moreover, that a canoe regatta is something More than a mere Doat-racd. It 1s virtually a comp titive examination of canoe modeis and canoe rigs. Theraces at Lake George next August are so arrany 3 to thoroughty test the canoes that may take part tp them, ere are many different models as well a3 classes of canocs, and the difverent rigs are legion. A re- gatta in which every canoe has an oppor- tunity to be matched agaitst every other not merely under sal! aud under paddle, but fa circumstances which will test its Strepgih and lightness and the ease with Whicb It can be bandied, must be of great use in determining the comparative merits of dif- ferent models and different rigs. Although the two classes of sailing and paddling canoes must always be disiinct, it ts ceriatn that there must be such UbingS as the best pos- sible model for a salllig canoe and the best possibie model for a paddilng canoe, and tbe canoe regatta must D> an ald to the discovery of the perfect model. Amougthe dozen different rigs there must be one WhICH 13 decided!y better thaa any other, and it 13 only by a competitive test that th's rig can be als- covered. ‘The materials of whica canoes ara Dutlt can be compared and their relative merits ascertained by canoelsts who have the oppor- tunity to watch a fleet of seventy-five canoes during turee successive days of caretaily ar- Tanged tests, and po matter how oid and ex- perienced a Canoelst may be, he Can hardly al lend a meeting lke that at Lake George with- oul gaining valuabie hints as to the fitting and caulpment of a canoe. Incicentaily a gathering of one ortwo hun- dred cauocisis must stimulate the inverest in cruising. Around the camp fire stories of Cruises will be told and new crulses planned. ‘Two cancelsts are to start from Lake George on the 15th of August for a little crulse of 12,000 miles, extending from Lake George to Trinidad, South America. They will reaca the Gulf of Mexico by way Of the Mississipp!, and after cousting along Mexico and South America, wii touch at the West India Islands, aud cruise northward through the lagoons between Florida and Chesapeake bay. ‘Their example must have its effect in the leading men to undertake long canoe cruises, and i€ 13 not tmpossiole that 12,000 miles may betfore very long be sur- passed by some ardent canocist ambitious of gaining the medal for the “lougest canoe cruise, In the brilliant prospects of American canos- ing there fs nothing that can render a lover of athletic spcrts uneasy. The “professional” ele- ment, which has so often converted boat-races ard base-ball matches into pretexis for gam- lng, cannot intrude itsel( among-canoeisc, for a “professional” canoeist 1s as Impossible as a proiessional player of “I spy.” To be a canoe- ist, 2 man must have that true love of nature ahd outdoor work which wil\ enable bum to re- gard the labor, incouveniences, discomforts, and occasional dangers of a canoe cruise as ae of a delightful sport.
