A WIDOW'S WANT. She Invites Pr;rmnh for Her Fair and San Francisco Chronicle The strength of the San Franci matrimonial market has been aceur- ately gauged at last. For many years widows, maidens and all classes of matrimonislly inclined womanhood | have believed this city to be the high altar fo sacrifices. The| aumber achelors was supposed to be disp rtionately large, and the | lave lieved to be accordingly favor chances for catching a husband been by able. But in the light of a_Rincon | Hill widow's experience, this sup posed state of affairs does not exist, | and bachelor quotations must be made much higher hereafter. On last Sun day the tollowing advertisement ap seared in the “personal” column of | The Chronicle WANTED—A respectable widow wants to make the acquaintanc respectable man with & view to Call at ) Harrison street, It was to be supposed —at least all | marriageable ladies did supposo— that the scenes in front of this enter- prising widow's door would be an _in< tensitied repetition of those which were enacttd when the man advertis- od that he wanted to buy a dog. But, strange to say, nothing of the kind happened. g\'.-_ 319 Harrison stroet is built on the side of a hill; sloping down toward the water front, At the lower corner a good natured fish- man keep a tave On Sun day morning he as sunning himself in tront of hisdoor — “Well,” said he, “‘whe them chaps mon- keym’ round here for? That's the | fourth man what's been askin’ afier | the numbers of thestreet. And they | all go up the hill, and then they look at that woman's house. What's this her name is? She's a widow, with a boy and a girl.” N Q OF THE COTTAGE. While he was still talking another man had been edging up to the speak- ““This is Harrison street,” said | ‘It is, sir,” replied the man nd which side i asked the new-comer. ‘‘Last louse up the hill on that side,” said the questioned one, pointing his hand. But the inquirer did not profit by the information, He ascended the hill on the opposite side, apparently the least concerned in_ 319 and its occupant, who might be watching his ascent through the closed blinds. When he arrived opposite he halted and became | intensely interested in the landscape around him. Next he began to exam- ine his shoes. He turned around on his heel a few times and finally he scemed accidentally to discover that he stood opposite to 319, He looked up and down the street in a shy a few times, and finally made siraight for the door. He ascended the steps with the guilty face of a eriminal and rang the bell as carefully as if he were handling a dynamite cartridge. The | door opened promptly and a little girl was seen to admit the caller, He had hardly disappeared from view when gorgeous uniform of a police officer hove in sight on the cresi of the hill. The reporter immediately recognized him as ¥—, the homeliest man on the force. Ofticer F— has wanted a wife for many years, but his lack of physical beauty is so great that even vantages he possesses in his connection with the force has failed to overcome the prejudices which the belles of Tehama street nourish against him. Officer F—— was_gorge- ous in a bright uniform. His star shone like a Mastodon minstrel's dia- monds, and the new tassel which en circled his 1 tened as if it be- longed to a brigadier general. IS SHE A FINE WOMAN{" He was just from the hands of his barber. There was a suspicion of powdler to be observed on_his cheek, whenever the gravity of the situation struck him strongly~ enough to sup- press the grin_which _hovered about his mouth, Officer F. inspected the house apparently unconcerned. Then he proceeded to mentally photo- graph the surroundings, and sceing the saloon-keeper still sunning him- self he came down hill, “‘Fine morning,” said the officer. ““It is that,” answered the liquor- sellor. “You haven't read The this morning? “No, sir,” said the man of bever- ages, The officer smiled as if he had been offered a treat. Then he put his detective faculties, sharpened by six years' service on the force, to work, He gradually drew from the aloon man the information of what he was in search of. No. 319 was in- habited by a widow lady of uncertain years, who rented rooms to lodgers, Her family consisted of a son of 10 and a daughter ot 13, She was poor, but not in distreas, “Isu’t she a fine won officar “That's how you take her,” came the answer. “I'don’t know nothing about the woman but what T've seen of her on the street. Sure she isn't young, and she isn't old either, But what's the matter with her? There's hali a dozen axing after her, The ofticer was silent, “Officer,” said the reporte you want to answer the advertise- ment ¢ He grinned a ghastly grin, but did not lose his presence of mind alto- gether, “‘No, Mister,” said he; “I thought there might bo a lot of fuss, becaure they'd all want to go in first, 30 1 came down to make them form a line, but I guess they won't want me he. Chronicle 17" asked the When the reporter finished explain- ing to the saloon-keeper the interest which was takenin No. 318 the officer had vanished around the next corner.” A TALK WITH THE WIDOW, Yesterday noon, when it might be reasonably supposed that the streamn of aspirants for the widow’s hand had ceased to flow, the reporter called at | the house in question. He was ad- mitted by the girl who had opened the door on the previous day, and who | asked him to step into the parlor. | The widow soon made her appearanc She was a woman of middle age. She was dressed cleanly but poorly, as wes also her daughter, T}m re- porter introduced himself, and begg an explanation of the advertisement, “It means all it says,” said the widow. “I want to bring up my chil- dron as I was brought up myself— respectable —and I don't want to go out to work and leave my daughter at home alone. If I can find a good :‘n[ man 1I'd marry him To the question, how many callers | she had in answer to the advertise ment, she replied, “Two; one W was tight, and T put him out. other one promised to call again.” It was evident that the woman was in earnest. She protested that she had not been driven to the step she took by poverty or want. She want ed a husband, and, disdaining to em ploy the usual means by which that article is secured, she set about it i the most public and straightforward way imaginable, as will be seen by the above advertisement. She was disappointed, however, in having but two answers, but attributed the fact to the prevailing excitement over t! preside: assassination Ther ots of them as would marry me, said, smilin, How n Man Goes to Bed Speaking of how a man goes to bed an exchango says “Uhere’s where a man has the ad vantage. He can undress in a cold room, and have his bed warm before a woman has her hair-pins out and hey shoes untied, ' is how it looks in print, and this is how it looks in reality “Lam going to bed, my dear.

When this attended to he wants a drink of water, and away he promen- des to the kitchen. Of course, when he returns, his skin resembles that of a pickled chicken, and once more he seats himself before the fire for the mup. As the clock strikoes twelve, he turns out the gas and with aflop of the bed clothes and a few modic shivers he subsides—no, not yet; he forgot to see if the front door was locked, and_another flop from the bedelothes brings forth the remark: “Good gracious! if that man ain't enough to try the patience of Job!” Setting her teeth hard, she awaits the final flop, with the accompa- nying blast of cold air, and then quict- ly inquires if he is settled for the night, to which he replies by mutter ing: If you ain't the provokingest woman! r, he romem- BUGGY ELECTRICITY. How a Brunette Yonng Man and n Blonde Girl May be Utilized. Railroad Advertiser. Since the clectric light has proved a success for lighting large buildings, it has oceurred to a scientific man of this city that electricity could be used on wheeled vehicles. He knew by ex- perience that there was always more or less electricity wasted — forinstance, when a young couple were out riding | —s0 he experimented. Those who were outon the Whitefish Bay road last Sunday evening, may have been astonished at the unusual light that shone the whole length of the road, a8 & certain cariage passed along; and they probably observed ~ the fright of the two occupants of the carringe. The scientist had learned that a certain young man had engaged a buggy at a livery stable for the evening; so he bribed the liv man to allow him to experiment the buggy. The young scientist puta #mall electric lamp on the lower part of the dashboard, out of sight of the driver, and ran small_copper wires to the back of the seat, It is well known to the student of nature that when a brunette young man and a blonde girl, who act as the positive and the negative, that is, he is positive he will put his arm around her, and she neg- atives the arrangement ‘along at first until after dark—there is a certain clectric current established, small in itself, but of great power if prop. husbanded. “You have all felt it. O, don't blush. Tt is likeyour arm getting asleep, or hitting your funny-hone on the arm of a rocking chair, Well, this wire was placed so that the arms of the young people would toyeh it Just as they were passing Fitzgerald's there by the toll gate, they began to snug up, and before they got to Leu deman’s the Little lamp began to throw out light. It went under the horses' feet and lit up the road for rods, and the young people werc most as astonished as the horse was. They thought there was somebody fol lowing them with a lantern, and they straightened up and the light wentout. Every little while they would get near together and kiss cach other slyly and #queeze, and immediately the light would blaze up. The was real frightened, A e young man's sitting on his side of the bugey, and he was a little frightened the fi'st few times that the light flared up; but as hie came out to hug, he was ing to hug, if it turned night into day; 50 he went to lying to her about the horse being a phosphorous horse. He aaid there were some horses so full of phosphorous that when they warmed up a little, from driving, they 5 shed light all around. Then they got nearer, and the electricity again appeared, and for an hour they rode along in the evening by the bright light. The young scientist passed them a number of times in an other buggy, and he is so well satis fied with the experiment that he will apply for a patent. The young lady was very much annoyed at the quecr light, and, while she cannot say that she did not enjoy the ride, she has re quested her escort to be careful next time when they go riding and not get a phosphorous horse, young wan, when he got back to the ‘stable, told the livery man that was the lightest sant voice | 8 !ain't you | Why don't you go to sleep | t garment, dangling got rig he ever drove, and he wanted a a | caleium light the next time he took |r|ml nice gentleman, but the li!l)‘l)vr his girl out. o They will know what caused the light when they read this, It is getting so there is electricity in everything LEADVILLE'S NEW SUNDAY. An Entire Change in the Carbon- ato Camp in the Observance of the Sabbath ' T adville does not n the world this scason much lie w done in days that are past, but she utting out_ quite as much bullion as erly, and, what many consider tter, 18 improving in her moral tone marked has this improvement be me that the newspapers find it a of comment. The following ticle, noting this change in the as pect of affairs is from The Herald of Sunday last, and is worth reading, as going to show the dawn of animport- ant era and the passing away of the Id state of affairs: A Sunday in Leadville to-day is a very different thing from what it was tWo years or even a year ago. At that time the only distinetion botween the days of the week was that on Sunday, if anything, more business was done, and the crowd on the streets was greater. Tt was the day conerally selected for all kinds of on- tertamments, and with the exception of one or two modest congregations that met for religious services wher- ever they could find & spare room, there was little or 1o opposition to attraction of tho theaters and billiard halls, ~ Merchants and elerks looked torward to it as a day of extra long hours and hard work. At the mines the seven days were one | and the same, and the fashion which | they set was the one that generally ob- | tained, The sound of church {bells would have been mistaken | for a fire alarm, so novel wonld it have rned, and even the strictest church- oers at home kept tracks of the lays of the week morely by the aid the almanae. Gradually a fow wing morchants elosod their doors make so as the i Sunday, and its imvortanco as an [ exceptional day of business began rs followed W to oxam- gradual reaction the mines die- rk not absolutely nee- Still the day remained more Ay than one of religious ob- as in the freedom of a n mining town it will always remain to a greater or less oxtent. During the transformation the various the | decline. Ot) plo thus set sct in, until my continued all w cssary religious denominations had been or- ganizing and gaining strength, and soon the proverbial liberality of a mining community was scen in the number of handsome churches that ¢ Fortunately their pulpits o filled with liberal-minded men who conld sympathize with the senti ments and rougheustoms of a new com- munity, and were thus able to exer- cise an influence that would otherwise have been but little felt, and .f the idea of apastor presidingovera dancing party among his parishioners seems a little too liberal to some of the good conservative people in the cast, they must remember the story of Mahomet and the mountain, as well as the greater freedom and liberality of viestern and especially mountain cus- toms and ideas. Practical, common sense preaching and carnest parochial work have built up large and healthy congregations, and when the church bell rings this morning the Sabbath quict of the streets and the throngs of well dressed and intelligent-looking people wending their way to church, will bear witness that the orthodox Sunday has at last reached Leadville, The Men Who Sucoceod New York Observer The great ditffe; | all callings, is enc the want of it. | amount of learning and integrity, and | the same opportunit and energy | will make one man a conque The want of it will see the other a failure, | Dead-beat are all men without force. | They had as good a chance as any of their companions.
