Bingold Cooper revives the memory of the social as well as political success in this city of the daring, unscrupulous forger and scoundrel.

During the winter of 1864 there appeared in Washington a handsome, dashing young man, who represented himself to be the son of an English nobleman. He made a great parade of his aristocratic lineage, and asserted HILT7AUKEE capital stock of 25,000. A railroad tunnel throiio-h Raton M.nrT tain, Arizona, is finished.

"I came on purpose to marry you. Will you have me?" he said boldly, when Kezia nad managed to release herself. "Thank you, Mr. Rees. Yes if you please," she replied, gratefully.

There is certainly no accounting for dreams, or, indeed, for proposals. Rees Manorgwyn, could never account for his, and would probably have slept it off with his spirits and I water had not Kezia had a father. Happily for her, he was not an absent man. and returning just as the words we have quoted were spoked, he ratified them with hia blessing. The news soon spread far and wide that the "young couple" were engaged, and more jokes made over those two commonplace words than would have filled Joe Miller's jest book.

"That' my doing. Now I must keep master up to it," said Mally; and so she did. Ho was quite forgetting to visit his sweetheart but, at he got in the habit of riding once a week to Tygwyn, and would probably have continued it to his dying day, but for Kezia's father. He was for naming the wedding day as soon as politeness permitted, and as hees would not, and Kezia could not do this, he took it on himself. So through him the day was appointed.

Jules Verne's "Tribulations of a Chinaman in China" has been translated into English by Virginia Camplin, and will be published in November by Lee Shepard.

It is one of the most whimsical of it'B a jthor's books, and introduces the telephone, the phonograph, and Capt. Boy-ton's lifesaving suit as familiar articles to an educated Chinaman. The story opens by showing the hero at a bachelor dinner which he gives on the eve of his marriage, and at which he complains that he is too fortunate for happiness. Wang, the philosopher, his friend, thereupon prays that evil may befall him, and that night he receives a letter telling him that the Central Bank of California, in which all his fortune is lodged, has suspended payment. He immediately determines to commit suicide, but being a good hearted creature, resolves to benefit his friend and his betrothed by his death, and so goes to the Shanghai office of the Centenarv Life Insurance Company and insures his life for $200,000, three-quarters of the sum in favor of Le-ow, his betrothed, and the rest in favor of Wang, and then he walks home to die.

Unfortunately he has set his heart on feeling some emotion when at the point of death, and, finding himself quite cool and comfortable when about to take poison, he gives up his plan, goes to Wang, and mauea ium promise to murder him before the two months for which his life insurance premium is paid shall expire. Kin-fo now begins to feel sensations of but fear, they soon depart and it is again unpleasantly comfortable, when he suddenly learns that the Central Bank of California has resumed payment, that its failure was a money making pretense, and that he is richer than ever. He now wishes to live, but Wang has disappeared, and with him has vanished a letter written by Kin-fo and saying he has committed suicide. Now begins a very pretty chase; the man who wanted to be murdered following the man whom he chose for his assassin to tell him he preferred living and being guarded while engaged in the pursuit by two Americans, agents of the Centenary Life Insurance Company, who are determined not to allow the corporation to lose a valuable life. The three find Wang at last, but he runs away from them and apparently drowns himself, and they return to the home of Kingfo, thinking that he is safe at last.

This pleasing delusion is rudely disturbed by the reception of a letter written by Wang, and saying that he had handed the letter to Lao-Shen, a Tri-ping rebel, and engaged him to do the murder and to pocket the legacy. Kin-fo and the insurance company's agents immediately start to redeem the letter, and begin the journey on a junk loaded with coffins of Chinese who have died in America. The agents overhear a conversation between some pirates hidden in the coffins which constitute the cargo, and catching the name of Lao-shen infer that the life of A valuable discovery of ervpsum baa the church.

Two thousand and twentv-fou'' nelsons Proper Sphere of the Palno. Form the Denver Kewal One of the most difficult things on earth to choose is a suitable wedding eift. The proper exerciBe of ingenuity in this direction depends somewhat on the taste of the donor, some what on the condition of the donor's pocket, and to a very limited extent on what the bride is supposed to want. The display of presents at a stylish wedding is an attraction which falls little short of the miscellany of the museum. Cream pitchers and napkin rings are numerically in the ascendancy.

The useful and the ornamental are blended in alarming variety and it is a happy csincidence that, as the articles are one by one added to the museum, the delighted bride exclaims of each new arrival that it is the very thing she has been sighing for. It was thus with a lady who several years ago became a bride. One of her friends, who had studied the catalogue of napkin rings, milk jugs, pickle forks and embroidered fans, concluded that none of these things would meet his views of what constituted a proper donation, and everybody would be likely to give them, he resolved to send as his tribute of esteem a square four-legged piano. When the cart containing this instrument of torture backed up to the house the bride declared that she had long wanted a piano, and that she had no doubt that this was the very instrument for which she had been sighing. Withits carved knees and its glistening varnished case, it became a thing of beauty as a part of the parlor furniture in the newly equipped farmhouse.

There was but one thing in the way of its becomming a joy forever. That was the lack of musical education on the part of the bride. She knew no more about piano playing than a Comanche squaw, nor had she any desire to learn. Still she admired the piano as a nice piece of furniture, and would have kept it in the parlor had not visiting friends frequently annoyed her by asking her to play them a tune or two. But after a while, weary of having to explain why she did not play on this piece of furniture, and finding that she only made her friends angry by asking them in return to play on it when they did not know how, she decided to wheel the piano into the kitchen.

In the parlor it had only been ornamental. It should now pay for its house room, and become useful. She would use its broad top for an ironing table. For a few weeks this was partially successful. But the ignoramus who had built the piano had never contemplated this use for it and had in lack of 'orethought, made its top too high to be conveniently used for such a purpose.

For chopping meat it answered better, but the top was hardly solid enough. A square piano is an unhandy piece of furniture for the kitchen. It takes up too much room and is by no means as handy as the old fashioned ironing table, which by tipping backwards top becomes a settee or sofa on which the cook and her cousin can sit and during the swiftly flying hours of evening and courtship-From the kitchen the wedding gift was finally sent to the spring house, where the milk pans are kept and the butter is worked into those lucious yellow pound lumps of which epicures are so justly fond. It would seem that the piano had been given in vain, for who wants a piano in the spring house? But not so. It has entered on a sphere of usefulness far different from any ever dreamed of bv its patronized the public baths of BrclHyn last week.

Horrible Experience of a Six Bays' Drift on the Chesapeake. A correspondent of the Somerset (Md.) llerald, writing from Whitestone, gives the following terrible experience of a family which was found adrift in a sailboat on the Chesapeake bay: Early on Sunday morning a small sailing boat was seen drifting up to Chase's Landing, a few miles distant from this place.

It was brought in and moored, and an examination made at once. Six persons, who appeared lifeless as stone, were in the boat. The discoverers of this mycterious boat were filled with atuaze-ment and horrified at the thought suggested that the occupants had been stricken down by starvation, or, perhaps, by some fatal disease. None would venture to investigate the matter properly or touch the bodies at first as the whole scene wore the hideous and solemn aspect of death. The belief prevailed that it was a subject for a coroner's jury.

Mr. L. M. Lippo in the meantime came up and recognized the people as a poor family named Davis, who had immigrated into Lancaster county about two months ago under very peculiar circumstances of penury and beggary, but had disappeared suddenly on Monday last for parts unknown. Upon examining the bodies thoroughly he discovered that life was not quite extinct, and concluded that they might revive by careful medical treatment and nursing.

William Davis, the father of the starving family, was in the worst condition of them all, and after being revived, lived but a few minutes. He was cadaverous looking and sank exhausted, a corpse. He ana his family had not tasted a morsel of food for six days or more, and their sufferings were intense and beyond the powers of human mind to conceive. Davis's death was one of severe bodily pain and mental suffering, and was marked by frequent outbursts of agony. Mr.

Lippo took the surviving wife and mother and four children to his house where the kindest nurg ing and best medical attention were provided for them, and they will probably be restored to health. The man and family first came from Sheltown, to this place about two months since in the same boat in which they were rescued adrift. His voyage across the bay was regarded at the time as the brave act of a brave man in straightened circumstances, and the family upon their arrival were kindly welcomed to the village of Whitestone. A house was provided for them, and the neighbors gave them fish, vegetables, and everything they needed, but Davis proved to be a lazy, good-for-nothing, and unworthy man. He could not be coaxed to work, although he was able-bodied and in perfect health.

He traded off the provisions, groceries, and produce for whisky, and was in a state of beastly intoxication almost all the time he lived here. People then shut down on him nnd would give his family nothing to eat, hoping that this method would swaKen him to his senses and force him to work. He preferred to starve and, being without food for several days, he and his family started for parts unknown in the little sailing-boat. Thay took nothing to eat or drink on the voyage, and no beds or Vedding to lie upon at night. Why he should go in this way is a mystery, and looks like self-destruction or an attempt to murder his family by slow degrees.

The boat was not seen from Monday till Saturday, "and being these six day without food, besides being starved before starting out, rendered their condition miserable beyond conception. last week.

A retired army officer had an only daughter, who was a charming musician. Mr. Cooper devoted himself to her. He had a stylish team, and the young lady shared his rides. The couple became engaged, and when Mr.

Cooper was laid up with smallpox the romantic young iady wrote the tenderest -notes to him and daily sent delicacies made by her own fair hands. She believed him to be immensely wealthy and listened with delight to his Claude Melnotte descriptions of the home and estate of his ancestors in England. The girl was really refined, well educated, and of good lineage, but he always impressed her with the idea of her inferiority to him, and that it was great condescension on his part to notice her. She, like so many American girls, tamely submitted, and did not evince the slightest spunk until he deserted her and married Miss Motherhead, whom he supposed to be wealthy. His forgeries were discovered several days before his marriage, and it seemed cruel to allow the ceremony to proceed when the detectives were outside of Mr.

Defrees house, and followed him and the bride to the train, taking passage with them and not losing sight of him for one instant. At Havre de Grace the arrest was made. Cooper begged the detectives not to let the arrest be known until he reached Philadelphia and placed his bride a hotel. To this they agreed.

"All comes to those who can wait." Matrimony came to her after twenty-five years' expectancy, and he was content So, in a manner, was Rees, who had never expected it at all. They galloped back to Tygwyn side by side, with their friends following, where they feasted and rested, and entertained all the country, until they set out again and galloped to Manorgwyn. Kezia slipped into her place so naturally that at the end of a week he was heard to declare that he believed he had been married all his life, and at the end of a fortnight he was sure of it. "I never forget anything now," he asserted, pointing to his new memory. He was nevertheless, occasionally oblivious when absent from her.
