For even that trivial Joy.

Was It Suicide ?
' Jack Bancroft and I were old friends.
I had known him frOm his babybood;
and loved him fer the excellent qualities
of heart and brain which he possessed to
an uncommon degree. Jack was one of
fortuhe’ s favorites, while I—well my lines
had not fallen in altogether pleasant
places , .ybt through all the changes of
my changeful life we had remained firm
friends.
Oils day he came into my study which,
by the way, was pmlor, dining and bed-
room nll in one, and declared I must take
a holiday, and accompany him to a place
in Jersey where he had spent a portion
of the previous Summer. I, nothing

glad to got away from the sweltering
heat 0! th'é' city, and the next evening
found myself an inmate of a large furm~
house near Port Murry. A quaint Old
house it was too, surrounded by magnifi-
cent shade trees. An old-fashioned gar-
den filled with a profusibb of roses that
made the air almost overpowering with
their perfume. HowI feasted on fresh
eggs, milk and othe1 delicacies! But
my own special enjoyment of that Sum-
mer outing has nothing to do with my
story.
For a week or more we wandered around
all daylong with guns and fishing rods;
shooting harmless little birds, and catch-
ing a. fish or two. One evening we were
seated astride a rail fence when Jack sud-
denly raised his gun and fired. The re-
port from the gun was followed by a cry
of pain.
“By George!” exclaimed my friend,
” I guess I have shot some One.’
We bounded over the fence, and made
our way through a field of clover toward
the spot from whence the cry proceeded.
Under a tree we espied a girl, small and
slim, with gypsy-like face, shaking her
brown hand and moaning piteously.
“Are you hurt badly, little one?" I
asked, stooping to examine the hand that
had received the charge- of shot. ‘
“Not very much, sir. But 011, it fright-
ened me so ! Ewasn’t doing any harm,
only just lyingin the grass to rest," she
replied. 53;.

me.
The child hung her head and made no
answer to the" mquiry, which be repeated.
“Idon't live anywhere. I run away
from Aunt Becky. She’s a hateful old
cat and beat and beat me till I couldn’t
stand it any longer—then I ran away.
You needn’t ask mo-to go back to her, for
Iwon't. My hand doesn’thurt much.
Even 1111 did, it isn't as hard to hear us
Aunt Becky’s beatings." -
She uttered the words in a breathless,
terrified way, and gazed at us defiantly,
as if to assure us that she would resist
any attempt on our part to lead her aback
to the relative who had so cruelly used
her.
“ Poor little waif, ” said Jack, tenderly;
“ we don’t want. you to return to Aunt
Becky. Then to me: “Suppose we trike
her to the tavern where lunched yes-
terday. There 'I can dress the wound and
get her something toes ”
When she was convinced that we were
inclined to befriend her, we had no diffi-
culty' 1n inducing her to mompany us
to the cavern, about a mile distant. Oh
the way 'tb'cro the girl, half child and
half woman, toldus that her name was
Alma Lake. She was an orphan, and
had lived with her aunt as long as she
could remember. 8110 had worked hard
all her life and had always been harshly
treated. Nobody 1111 over spoken kindly
to her except her old grandfather, who
died the year previous. Aunt Becky was
glad when he died, because he had to be
wcited on just like a baby, and she (Alma)
often wished she could die, too, and lie
in the graveyard beside her dear old
gmndpap- ' .

Therefore he would frequently start 01!
after breakfast and sometimes would not

prompted me to ask himhow he managed
to kill tints. when he laugbingly replied
that he had turned schoolmaster.
"You see," he explained, “Alma takes

in the progress of his pupil and declared

content with the rustic life we were liv-
ing and I found it very restful—away
from the noise and bustle of the city.
One day I rwcived a. letter which made ‘a
trip to'Now York“necessary. ' I informed
Jack of my intended visit and asked him
to accompany me. This he declined d'o-
ing, saying he meant to start to Saratoga
in a few days, to join his mother-bud sis-
ters, who were already there.
Business detained me in New York
much longer than I had expected, and
after an absence of nearly two weeks 'I
returned, behaving of course, that Jack
had departed for Saratoga long before.
I was considerably astonished when our
landlady informed me that he had not
gone yet, although he had talked of go-
ing every day, but had finally decided to
await my return”
I strolioddown the road toward Lilly

face we had whiled away many an idle
hour, wondering the While what my re.

her s‘sshc stdod before- him with bowed
head and hands clasped over his arm.
The sight filled me with pain. I thought,
is it possible that I have overestimated
his sense of honor. Cau'it be that he has
wantonly taught this poor friendless
child to love him. My' better judgment
told me that my suspicions were no
founded, and yet—I turned away, determ-
ined to question him closely regarding
the matter, and if my suspicious were
correcttoread him a lecture he would
not soon fOrget.
I was in my room when he came saun-
tering up the lane leading to the house.
Astent out to meet him I observed
that his handsome young face wore a
troubled look.
“Iamsoglad you are back!" be ex-
claimed cordially, grasping my hand. _“I
could not go until you returned. " . -
“Why not i" I demanded coldly. .
“0b, confound it, on account of little
Alma; she went on in such a dreadful
way when I told her I was going that I
had not the heart to leave her. You see,

leis. Itricd-tobekin’dtoliér. Don’t

never uttered one word of love to her. I

you can tell her—but you will know what
t9 say. I will leave some money with
you, and when the countess ceases to re-
quire her services we must put her in the
way to earn a dmant livelihood."
He lookedso perplexed and spoke so
sincerely that the shadow of suspicion I
had harbored concerning him left my
mind. . .
' “You had better leave immediately," I
advised.

The next morning our host carried

road just beyond the tavern we encoun-

’f'us, as was her wont, but leaked sadly and
gsilently at us. As we drew near I held
out my hand and spoke pleasantly to

kept on, her r‘yes fixed on Jack s face.
"Our friend is going to leave asto-

his hands.

She gazed after him with a yearning

heart tbrob with pity

she murmured m a tone so low that the
words did not reach his ears.
"Come, Alma, you are too old to
behave so Ichildishl” I remonstrated.
“Take the children to the woods and I
will see you when the train starts."
I turned and followed Jack; who was
walking very rapidly. I did not overtake
him, and when I reached the depot the
train was just moving off. On the way
back I looked for Alma, but failed to find
her. Having Mporta'u't’ work to do, I

tone. -
“I think you are mistaken, madam,"
I replied, anxious to shield my friend,
yet fearing her words were too true.

him of Alma’a disappearance, but; made
no comments on what I deemed his dis-

was back at the farm. When I repeated
the story of her disappearance, be said,
sadly:

could have induced me to take such a
step. I have not seen the poor child
since the morning I went away. Banish
your unjust suspicious, and let us go in

When we were about leaving tho house
to begin our search. the landlady told us
that there was great excitement in the
village, owing to the fact that some men,
while rowing on the lake, had found the
body of a woman floating in the water.
The body had been carried to the tavern,
and the county coroner had been sent
for.
The. news threw Jrck into' a terrible
state of excitement He started for the
tavern at such speed that Icould scarcely
keep pace with him. When we reached
our destination the countess told us the
body was in the woodshed. She had not
looked at it, but they said it was that of a

Alma. '
After one hasty glance, Jack turned
uway, unable to repress the 80115 that did
honor to his noble heart. '
. The coroner pronounced it a case of
accidental drowning, and we kept silent
lowing evening. Then I learned that 8

When the body wa‘s’propared tr the

to their last resting place.
We never: could decide whether she
threw herself in the water or was occi-
dentally drowned, but hopedit was the
latter. During Jack’s absence in Europe,
and awarding to his directions, I had a
monument placed over her grave. It

AMERICAN ~WOBKERS. '
It appears from ”statistics recently
compiled that the whole product of Am-
erican manufactures in 1850 was valued
at$l, 019,;000.000 inlSBOit sts$1,885,-
000,;000 in 1870 it was 84,232,000000;
and in 1880 it was 05, 389,000,000. An
explanation of the enormous increase in
the volume of trade was feund partly' 111
the increao 0f the preduoing popula-
tion, but chiefly in» the multiplication of
machinery. In 1850 there were altogether
957.000 hands? employed in manufacture ;
in 1860 the number was 1,311,000, in
1870, 2,058,000; and in 1880, 2,,700 I000.
The' mcreasc from 1850 to 1800 who thus
37 per cent, from 1860 to 1880 about 50
per cent, and from 1870 to 1880 about 31
per cent. In 1870 there were steam
engines and water wheels, with 2, 8-10, 142
horse-power employed in manufactures,
and in 1880 them was a total of 3,410,837
horse-power employed, being an increase
of 1,064,095 horse-power, or about 50
per cent. But this increase of horse-
power does not fully represent the pro-
ductive capacity'that"is ‘added’ to the
already existing sum total. In many
departmentsjof light manufacture, such
as shoemakiug, clothing, woodeuowarc,
etc, a. little machine will treble-the pro-
ducing capacity of one hand. The pro-
ductive capacity of the States prodoeds
at a far greater rate than that of any
othEco ountry. Half a million persons
are ded to the population every year.
from immigratiOn, and these represent a
productive element. All are workers,
and, indeed, there are few idlers in the
States altogether. Another important
point is that the machinery represents a
producing element exclusively. The
great need now is to find additional con-
sumers of the products of the enormous
industries going forward The home
market has hitherto been chiefly the
concern of the manufacturers, but now
this market is completely overstocked,
and if it is necessary to find out foreign
buyers. If thesebo not provided, and
the productive capacity of the United
States goes on increasing at the present
rate, the American people will have labor
problems thrown on their bands which
they will find very difficult to solve.
Bacn AND 11111 01mm.
Not only the artist and lover. however,
but the craftsman comes before us in the
records of Beach's early church organist
life. He knew all about the technical
build of the “ huge house of thesounds,"
and his thoroughly practical specification
for the. repairs and improvement of the
organ at his next post, the Blasius-
Kirche, at Muhlhausen, which is given
in full, is very interesting as well in its
provisions as in its downright and dicta-
torial tone, as of 'a man who knew thor-
oughly what he was about and would
have no scamping. Unfortunately, even
musical readersviu England know gener-
ally, so little of the mysteries of the organ
that we must fear that quotation from
this document would not be appreciated
here; but it may be mentioned, as show-
ing how little inclined was Bach at this
time to anything like the asceticism of
the modern purists on the organ, that he
not only gives special directions about
the repair of the “tremalent” so'that it
1 may be regular in its pulsations, but that
be added to the pedal 11 new "Glocken-
spiel,” or scale of bells, played by the
pedalkeys. What would be s'aidto this
in [a modern church organ? There is a
Glockenspiel stop on the Crystal Palace
organ, and‘when the first organ player of
the day presumed to introduce this at
the last Handel Festival, in a particu-
larly beli-like passage in Hamdol's First
Concerto, we remember how the critics
come down upon' him. 'Baob’s former
organ at Luneberg had a “ Cymbalstern "
also, a contrivanco for striking cymbals
in the organ, probably by a special
pedal. Whether these additions are
really in keeping with the genius of the
instrument, and whether Bach himself
in his older period of more serious organ
composition, would have cared as much
about them, of course may be questions
to be asked; but thofactis interesting as‘
showing that organ concerts in the good
old days were by no means the sedate
and solemniafi‘airs that they are oftev
supposed to have been. ‘ "
scan on WOMAN?
One of the most remarkable historical
mysteries on roocrd, ‘riv'a'lling that of the
identityof the man in ”the iron mask, is
that of- the sex of the Chevalier1d'Eon,
who was French EnVoy. to Englaudin
1761. He acted as private agent to
Louis XV. and lived 111 London- for; four-
teen years. 116 was a handsome man of
a rather efi'cminato appearance, and was
noticed to be very shy of the ladies and
to avoid genoralvsocrety While he was
there theabtory got about that he was a
woman, and the scandal thus aroused
caused King Louistorocall hisAmbas-
sador and order him to assume his
proper dress, that of a woman. This she
did and was always afterwards known as
Mmeg'd'Ecn. fiA-lifo of this remarkable
persOhage stated-that 'sho ’a’ssumed the
dress of a youthin order tOIsccure higher
educational opportunities and thus'en-
tered the College Masai-in, at Paris, and
afterwards became doctor of laws, was
ihe author of several learned volumes
- and was introduced by Prince do Conti
to the King”. It was said that the King
knew the secret of her -;scx but for her
remarkable talents selected her to under-
take ‘a_ secret mimion .to Russia. which
was so well performed that she was after-
wards sent to London. During the
French . Revolution Mme. d’Eon again
went to England, where she died in 1810.
After her death it was assertcd that the
character Of a woman was a disguise, and
that Mme. d'Eon was a man after all.
But the facts in the case are not re-
garded as provon either way. This curi-

CIRCUMSTAN'I‘IAL EVIDENCE.
To show us that ‘tmtb' is stronger than
fiction" the following incident is given,
and claimed by a legal writer on the sub-
ject to be fully authenticated. It oc-
curred in an English coast town, in the
latter part of the seventeenth century.
Two brothers wera lodgiug'at an fun in
the town. They had come into pOsses-
siou of some property, concerning the
disposition or division of which they
could not agree, ' and had frequent quar-
rels. One night thoy had been drinking
hard, and had become so quarrelsomo
that friends were obliged to interfere to
' prevent a fight. At last they were
quieted, and retired without further dis;
turbauoe. They slept in a double-bed-
stead room. In tbofirst gray dawn of
the morning one of the brothers was
awakened by a violent attack of bleeding
at the nose. Arising and partially dross.

shoro. Here he was so unfortunate as to
surprise a bmd of smugglers in the act
of secreting a boat-load of brandy-cash,

brother had been aroused by the horror
stricken inmates of the tavern who found
him asleep, his brother’s bed being
empty and the pillow drenched with
blood. The trail of blood~spOk1 was 1016
lowed to tho seashors‘and the cOncIusiou
was inevitable that the duo brother had
murdered the other during the night,
and had dragged the dead bodyout and
thrown it into the sea._- The supposed
murderer was tried, condemned and
banged on the strength of the testimony
of the facts against .him. Happily for
him he had a most elevated and loving
sweetheart, who had not only made every
effort to securehis releasaaud tooou-

Then, as there was great danger that the
law would seize upon him Again if the
fact of his resusitatiou‘ were known, he
was hastily wedded to his devoted lady

he had so recently been tried and con-

A Disrunssmo can.
A young American lawyer was retained
as advocate in a case as to which, not
feeling himself sufilcioutly prepared to
plead, he was very desirous of obtaining
a postponement. As, however, the court
had already protracted its session be-
yond the usual period,’ 1n consequence
of an unusual amount of business, and as
the jury were-getting impatient to be re-
leas'ed'from their duress, ho was well
aware that it would be impossible to pro-
cure such a postponement unless he
he could allege some extraordinary cause.
Fortunately—or unfortunately is the re-
snlt proved—he had a lively imagination,
and quickly formed a plan which be was
sure would be successful. Rising, de-
jectedly, with his handkerchief to' his
eyes he addressed the court in great ap-
parent emotion, “ May it please the
court, I have just heard of the dangerous
illness of my venerable mother, who is’
lying at the point of death. In such cir-
cumstances, much as I regret protracting
an already lengthened session, I must
request that this casobo postponed My
feelings are so powerfuuy agitated that I
should be unable to do justice to the
case, feeling as I do that my, proper
place 1s at the bedside of my mother. "
The pathetic appeal was completely
successful. A feeling of earnest sym-
pathy for the afflicted counsel filled all
hearts, and the jurors, though anxious
to return to: their families, were not suf-
ficiently hard of heart to wish to have
the business of the court proceed at such
a sacrifice of personal feelings. The
judge, who was a tender-hearted man,
had risen, and was about to grant the re—
quest of the counsel, when the deep hush
was broken by a shrill voice which pro-
cceded from a lady in a Quaker bonnet,
who was bending over the railing of the
gallery. It was the mother of the alc-
quent counsel .who, so far from being at
the point of death, come without her
son’s knowledge, to hear him plead,
“Timothy, Timothy," she exclaimed, in
avoice which could be heard all over
the court. I“. How often have I; chastised

00]. Stuart Wort] commenting upon
Sir John Lubbock'scgponments, tells an
interesting story concerning a cat which
he found during the dime-n War. The
poor creature was pinned to the ground
by a bayonet, which had fallen and
pierced its foot. The colonel released
it; and the animal attached itself to him.
and remained with him to the end of the
war. The first two mornings of their
acquaintance the cat was taken to the
doctor's tcntto have his wound dressed.
The third morning, the colonel was on
duty; but the cat found his way to the
doctor’s all the scum, scratching at the
tent for admission, and holding up his
paw for examinations-Chamber's Journal.

The extraordinary creature known to
foreign residents by the name of rod
fire-fish, and to the natives or Ceylon by
the title of gini- Dabs, inhabits the
greater part‘of the tropics] seas, from
Eastern Africa through the Indian seas,
to Austrdis.
This fish is remarkable for the singu-
lar development of the dorsal and pec-
foralfinatho latter boingof such vast
proportionate size that they were for-
morly supposed to act like the corres-
ponding organs in tho flying-fish, and to
raise the creature out of the water into
the air. ' Such, however, is not the case,
for the rays whicb‘oarry the connecting
strength of bone as in the true flying-
fisheu audarofar 'tooweaktoscrvethat
purpose. Indeed. the object of this ro-
markablo development is one of the many
mysteries with which the inquiring zoo-
]ogist is surrounded, and which make his
taskso exhaustlcssly fascinating.
The structure of the entire skeleton is
very interesting to comparative anato-
mists, butis too complicated. and re-
quires too many technical terms tobo
described here.
The rod fire-fish is common ofi‘ tho
Ceyloneso coast, and is said to be rather
valuableas an article of food, its fiesb
being very white. firm and nutritious.
The native fishermen hold this species in
an incurable wound with the sharp spines
which arm its person and stand out so
boldly in every direction. This idea,
however, is without any foundation; for,
although tho-thorny spines may prick
the band deeply and painfully, they
carryno poison, and, inflict no venomed
hurt. -
The general color of the rod fire-fish is
pinky brown, barred with darker brown,
and the head is redder than the body.
The huge pectoral and dorsal fins are
reddish brown, crossed with bold bars
of black; the ventralfin isblack, dotted
with white spots. and the rest of the
fins, including that of the tail, are light
brown. spotted with black. It is by no
means a large fish, being generally
about seven or eight inches in length.
There are nine or ten species of this
genus. 1
