The news | | recorved might before last from the | wandering Jeannette hag sont glad ness and sorrow to many a breast but to the young lady in question it | has created the most anxious tears, Yesterday, just before the San Fran- cisco train pulled out, a matronly old | lady might have been soen support- | ing a heavily-veiled young woman They were ovidently mother and daughter, from the tender and motherly manner in which the elder lady looked after the slightest want of her companion. A Times reporter, noticing the couple, surmised that the young lady was laboring under some great mental sorrow. He looked toward the coach from which the ladies had just alighted and saw that it was a private carriage. His curiosity was aroused. He approached and cautiously interrogated the driver. The old coachman was very reticent, and the newsgatherer was about to gide up in despair, when an idea struck him. He put it into execution atonce by telling the old man that his interest in the two ladies had b-en aroused from the fact that he believed he saw a family resemblance between himself and them. “T just arrived here the other day said the reporter, “and I have every reason to believe that that elder lady is a very near relation of mine.” This had the desired effect, and the poor old man unfolded a story of ro- mance in real life that never occurs more than once in a century, It seems that Miss was visiting friends in San Francisco during the winter of 1878 79. She met Lieutenant Da honhower, U, 8. N a noble specimen of manhood. The lieutenant was smitten with the fair daughter of Los Angelos. They met often, and the sequel was soon evident in a desperate love aftair. But the old, old siying that true love never ran smooth was never more plainly illustrated than in this case. For several months there was not a happier pair inall San Fran- cisco. This earthly bliss conld not last long, however. The licutenant was under orders to sail inthe ill-fated Jeannette As the time drew near the sweet girl became sad and pensive, and it was a common thing for her to meet her lover with tearful eyes. She told him her tears, and pleaded with all the eloquence only known to a lovely maiden, but her lover had been ordered by his country to go to almost 1 death, and his honor would mit him to break his word, even for the being he worshipped. The sad day of separation finally arrived and the two devoted lovers parted, possibly never to meet again in this world. This is the sad story told in brief by the old coachman, who related his tale with tears in his eyes. ““Yes, sir,” said the old tellow, ‘“‘she has been a different girl ever since. They had only known one another a short time, but 1 don’t believe two people ever loved as did this devoted couple. Why, sir, her mother said that when the lieutenant came to bid her good-by, it took two of his brother officers to separate them when the moment of parting came. She fainted almost as soon as he was out of the house. When she revived, she ordered a carriage, and immediately repaired to the Cliff house. As soon as she arrived there, she took a stand where she could get a good view of the Golden Gate. Neither commands nor coaxing could move her until she was satisticd the vessul hod passed out to sea After returning to Los Aungelesshe led & ro- tired life, having been convinced from the first that she would never see her lover again. Sne has never failed to be up by daylight since the Jeannette sailed in order to read the telegraphic news, That sir has been the only thing that hus interested her. When she got Ths Times this morn- ing and got the news from the Jean- nette you might have heard her acreams almostamile off. The whole tamily were in bed at the time. When thoy reached her she was in a faint, and everybody thought she was dead. But (hn{wus not kind enough to put he poor girl out of her misery. The The first thing she said was, ‘Mam- ma, tuke me to San Francisco at once.’ She don’t scem to know what she wants, but her mother would start for the spot where the Joanuette was lost it her daughter would ask it.” “How old is she?” “She was nineteen last O stober,but to look at her uow you would thiuk she was at least thirty,” The young lady is well known in this city, and up to within the pust two years was one of the hrightest and wost beautiful of the Los Au- geles bellos, Her nume i3 wappressed for the present, aud her untortunate lo air s known but by few, as the family have made every efint o keop it quiet.

The original grant | was made by Congress in 1800, the state holding the lands in trust, and was given power to digpose of them in such manner as the Legislature shall provide, In 1874 the Logisla ture granted to the Chicago, Portage & Superior Company a grant of 24¢ 600 acres on either side of a line sur- veyed from Yellow river to Superior, upon condition that the road to Supe- rior city shall be built and in opera- tion by the time the North Wisconsin is built to Yellow river, the point of intersection, and within five years of its accoptance of the lands, and shall also construct and put in operation the proposed railway of said Chicago, Portage & Superior Air Line, north erly from Genoa in Walworth county, at the rate of twenty nules a year. Under this arrangement the time al- lowed for the building of the northor- ly sixty-five miles of the Air Line road would have expired May 5, 1870, The Legislature, however, in 1878 ex- tended the timoe three years, or until May 5, 1882, The first work was done on the line last spring. Meantime a number of companies had cast a long- ing eye on this grant, as it was not being earned by the construction of a road called for by the terms of its al lowance, and last winter several bills were introduced to confer it upon other companies, notably the Chicago, St. Paul & Omaha and the Milwaukee & St. Paul, but none of them: became a Last spring the former company an the work ou a lie from the Yeilow river to Superior city, with the avowed object of secuting a con- neetion with the Northern Pacitie, and are building a line trom Chippewa Falls to Yellow river, having iron laid to Bloomer. This entire line, when completed, will give them a ice at the Chicago freweht from Superior and the Northern Pacitie. With this line, which it is intended to complete by May next, the St. Paul & Omaha Company, it is alleged, will make an effort to secure the land grant which, it 1s claimed, will be ferfeited by the other company by its failure to complete the road within the al- lowed time. The points to be mado by the St. Paul & Omaha Company, it i3 claimed, will be: L. That the grant made to the Air- Line Company by the Lugislaturc isa part of the grant made by Congress for a railroad and branches, and of that system the present North W consin is constitutionally the main line, 2. That the Air-Line Company will fail to build the line within the time prescribed by law; and 3.

He | folt tinancially able to do this by reason of having made a sale ! Like Superior property. He filled out a check on the Girard bank for a very large amount, and intrusted it to | a friend” for colfoction. Whon the | plece of paper was presented to the paying teller, that official first seratched his chin and then went to | sco the presidont of the hank who at that time was Mr. Baker, father of the Hon, H. Baker. Mr Baker camo forward smilingly and and said that while Colcnel Fornoy had quite & largo sum of moasy on deposit in the bank the amount to his credit was not equal to that called for by the check, but still if Colonel Forney would step down to the bank himself, the check would be honored. The friend returned to The Press office in an indignant frame of mind and told Colonel Forney that he had made him the bearer of a check that had been dishonored, for the reason that thero was not sufticient funds in the bank. *‘Some mistake, sir; somemistake,” replied the big-hearted editor. *'I have much more than that on deposit in the bank,” and he uttered the name of a familiardepository other than the Girard. “But T did not go there the friend in amazement. is drawn on the Girard Bank to invest chine, of some Geor roplied 'ho check SMy!my!” sad Colonel Forney, “did 1 make such a silly mistake Why, T have not a penny in the Girard Bank, T did not intend to send there SON, yes: you have a largo doposit in the Girard bank,” answered the friend, “‘but it was not suflicient to mect this chock,” A mistake, sirg mistake,” ro- plied the colonel, T have not a pen ny there.” A vieit was made to the G bank, however, and Colonel Fornoy forna to his amazement that he was much richer than he thought. T the same way, when the Longacres’ bank in Lancaster failed, Colonel Forney found that he had a leng-time deposit there that he knew nothing of. It was this indifforence in money matters that exemplitied, probably as well as any other trait, the lavish dis- position of the man now mourned; lavish not only with his wealth, but with the more precious treasures of his heart.

Christmas Weather for 80 Years. A Christmas like the one just past— L. M Mann Groceries soft, balmy and benignant, more like April than December, a second child- hood for old winter—sets the world and our esteemed cotemporaries to discoursing upon a warming climate and a moderate season, As a 1utter of fact, Philadelphia in the last nine- ty years has had yearly weatherwhich has not variod through a span of five degrees. In the fifty-seven years from 1790 to 1846 no year was hotter than b4 degrees (L828, 45 and '46), and ounly one colder than 51 degrees mean temperature, 1816, when ice formed every month in the year, and the annual average sank to 49 de- grees, Last Christmas was warm and De- cember has been an open month; but in 1828 December had fow frosty nights, the mornings were otten fog- ¢y, ‘‘the same as dog days,” Bays a chronicle of the weather, “‘and a warm sunny day would ensue,” and Christ- mas was warm, The next year, 1829, was almost as warm. Twenty years later, 1846, December was warmagain, with a fortnight clear of frost, and the noonday temperature close on to Christmas was b6 degrees in the shade —too warm for fires. The oldest inhabitant, it 18 true, who is old enough to remember that Philadelphia had good sleighing for days before Christmas Day, 1790; that in 1791 snow blocked the roads, and Chiistuas mails and greetings from other cities got through with difliculty; that the next year gav sloghing nearly all Decombor, with icy strects Chiristmas Day, owing toa thaw and sharp frost “just before; while in 1802, "181H and 1816 deep nd weather close to zero lasted L hali the month - sueh an old- abitant might bo pardoned for believiug that Christmas showed the beginning of warm Christmases. He might even say in an esteemed con- temporary that ‘‘a greeu Christinas is the rule of late yoars rather than the exception,”” forgetting, as the old do, that one year ago Christmas week had the coldest weather - minus six do- grees—for twenty-five years, with sloighing from Christmas on; that two days after Christias tho year before was the coldest day of 1878, and that for a quarter of a century December has furnished the lowest annual tem. porature for over a fifth oithe timey But it would be absurd for our oldest inhabitant to forget that he had days in December, 1826, which went up to 60 dsul:uol and extremely mild weath- er Christmas, 1794, utterly spoiling the sleighing on which he Kul confi- dentially counted when snow fell De- cember 16 —a disappointment he had to bear again Christmas, 1795, after a week of excollent sleighing earlier in the month. The catching weather 1820 and themuddy Christmas of 18534 would linger in his mind and make him hesitate in - assuming that our winters were warmer; and if he was a level-headed oldest inhabitant he would conclude that, taking Christe mas weather for nivety years, there has beon a good deal of samoncss about it, and that wewory is a bad guide for a talk on the weather him. To this man Price said that the advance of half a dollar would secure a chain which would lead its owner to find a man of coined gold in the neigh- borhood.
