The Ce<lar Spring (air was a success, lots of exhibits, tine weather mid a large attendauce One of the feature's was the large attendance of would-be offl -e holders, the carryall one day having a fiill load of those distinguished visitors.

Wm, t-ig.'vu took a girl, Minnie Dyer, wi th-h im. but O'Oonnon went alone and. of course, if he danced, he must dance with some o( the girls brdught by tbe other (ellow*.

They afler w ards re;urned to the house and dauced a <i>uplc of lime* and then he accompsnied her home. On the way they talked the murder over and she ad-vised him to tiav and (ace it like a man, which he did. While he did not go and give himself up he made no effort to get aw»y. He was arrested, Sun.lay alter-no. m, and confessed lo tbe killing, giv-ing as a jusiification the plea of sell de-fense an.l expressing his s4irrow at the dealb an "be didn't mean to kill him."

These are the facts nulwtancially a* brought out. Iioth by the detectives and by tbeinqueat. which was held, Monday.

Mr and Mrs Chauncey Cha«e live in the towmhip of Otisco, near Belding. They have a daughter by Mrs. Chase's first hu-basd. named Bertha Car|ienter. Bertha is about eighteen years of age. of mvuple form, fair complexion and laughing eyes. On the farm is emp'oy-ed a man of nearly (oriy, named Eat. Hamilton, uncouth, poorly dresM-d and anything but handsome.

Last Friday morning Mrs. Chase ar.we ai tbe usual hour, and going to her daukihler'* room, (ound no <n-cu|iant therein. She co«imunical>'d this io her hiishand, who commenced an invesfga-Mon. and soon found that the lured man was also missiog, together with a trunk full of valuuliles.

Chans drove lo Bidding, served oul a warrant for ihe arrest of Hamilton, charging him with theft id good*. The warrant was placed in the bands o( Deputy Sheriff Elmer Fates, who im-mediately stared in pusruit of the run-aways. He traced them as far as Port-land. and north to nei r Maple, where he found Hamilton and the girl nt the home of Mr Burgess, who had engaged the former to work with his threshing machine.

The deputy blie'iff brought the couple to Portland. Friday afternoon, and took Ihe night train to Belding. The trunk, w h i c h was a lso in tbe {KMSCSSIOII of t b e

runaway*, was recovered but the girl as-sume* all rejponsibility for the thefi. fully exonorstmg Hamilton from the charge named in the complaint.

The gitl will probably be forgiven by her irate narents, but what will lie done with her companion Is not yet known.— I'urtlaiul Kcvirw.

IN the nomination of C. W. Watkins for Congreae from this district Ihe Re-publicans have most effectually squelch-ed Mel. Ford's aspirations, but possibly he is talking off to see if the party man-agws will not make Inni an offer similar to the ono they made Judge Morse, on the Kovernonhip. Tlwy offered him a guarantee of $l(i,00U a year it be would only accept the nomination on the<r ticket and poor Ford is gazing longingly al that unpicked plum, for he could afford to be beaten, as he surely would lie. if he could gather in anythinR like thut.

THE Advance, the onran of the Sagi-naw P. of I., gives this sketch ol James M. Turner, the republican candidate for governor:

••.lames M. Turner is really a new light that has arisen and our closest in-veetigation fails to discover ati* grave faults.

Slide— The Correapondem "Sllrd Il ia

G a n n r n l " —In Ihe Tall of • Rlnrin Tha Sklpper'a Tale of Woe.

I hnd loiig.'d to go syvordflshing all my life. I knew the rmt i i r e was llavurotia, gamy snd gissl, for 1 hnd eaten savory bits of him broiled. 1 knew thin he c a r ri.-d on hia pnguac^nna anont n swont of

Clished Ivory ns lively ns nn ll.ilinn'a sll-to and as heavy na King Arthnr'* ex

calilier I knew he would (Iglit like a cow-boy, and waa from eii{ht lo fifteen feel long. Ho I wunl. 1 to g-. after Mm, or I fooliahly thought I did 1 wns talking in this way on a pile of stono they called a wharf when a skipper spolo np nnd says: "Von goea a feller after 'em W'y don't yon go along 'er ' im'"

He blew on his flng.-rs a shrill pipe one long blast and twoshort—as a slsnal. and n-celved a almllar answering liorn. The anils luffe"!. the aloop hove to and came around, and my whistling agent put me alioard from his own dory.

ON DO ARD THE BLOW. The sloop tackcd again and laid herself

right down before the wind. It seemed nice. Each wave was about aa long aa the (loop, and roiled up (mm toward Spain, It •cemed like the conluroy tobogean slide at Coney Island It suggested going to heaven In a hammock. We introduced ourselves The skipper's name. 1 had been told, waa Hallibut. but after I bail called him by U about a hnndn-d times I fonnd out that il was Hiirlbnu He was at the helm and held the reins Another man stood on a llltle platform ahont thirty feet np the mast, and it was his bnsineiia to discover the fish and tell the captain which way to •leer A third man was standing right out on the end of the liowrsprit with a har-poon In his right hand, a aharp. ngly look-ing steel weapon six or seven feet long

T h t s is gloriona!" I shouted "Heyf" sung out the skipper, above tbe

whistling wind "Gloriousf" I repeated. "Tail of a storm." be shoaled back.

>ba'n , t git no fish " I went over where he mood. There were

two vessels like our own a llltle distance off, with men in the crosstrees and on the bow.

Tbe captain tacked, and as the boom came around yelled onl. " "K onl for your beadT' I looked out for it. and then 1 ob-served for the first time that he seemed in trouble He WHS swearing in a low, gentle baritone voice unlnlerrnpiedly. mildly, with quite H surprising rani.-e of epithet and of metaphor It was the most serene

Kfanity I had ever hi artl It had wbeed-l nnd even (uithetlc arcents. like a New

foumlland dog that is Isdng petted "What is it. sirf" I venturisl to ask. "That infernal son of a aculpln on the

Ice quarter stole a fish f m me jiste'day," aaid be lu the same subdued voice. "I'd like to whale'em soH be couldn't stan'," and then be blasphemed again in a foolish and ridiculous voice.

"Did he take it rijfht off the deck?" I asked

He cast a withering glance al me. swgre a little and remarked "He did nol, but be might Just as ivell uv It M US my fish. Il wan'l more'n ten rod nbead uv tu, and we wut jest a goin" to gather 'Im."

I aaid 1 "never e-w^'lrred a deer mine till I'd shot him "

"Kir.irr o r r ' u n i s HECE," fie grunted five or six timta In a way

that was sad to see, embrunii'nog that u t terance with an arals-sque of profanity quite dnzrllng to hear, and added " H u l a deer! Well li» might git away f m ye, mightn't he* An' a swordflsb couldn't git away f m tne, could hrf That's the differ enoe. ain't it1 .Inst f-s srajn thnt white livere.1 mea-ly cuss haij toak ll ngbl oITm my dtvk "

"Starboard Imw'" yel'ed the man in the rigdm:

"Hello!" said the captain In a surprised way, aud put his helin a-port The sloop listed Ui the leeward, and ihe nnin ou the Ism held np his har)Miou at arm's length and gazed anxiously down into tbe water.

A wriUiiug convulsion—chug—tbe sharp Iron ha<l left his hand and gone Into the sea. The rope nit tied after, the sloop came around into the wind, a boat waa toned over the guiinla by a man and a boy Ami the chase lieguu.

Answering mv luquiriea tbe skipper said: "He'll ruu till he t lmou t . then he'll c-jme to the surface, and they will haul bim up to the boat, knock him in tbe bead with an ax and pull bim abosi^-if they are strong enough If lie's tovMg they'll tow'm over here "

We werr almost out of sight of land. Tbe sloop was runntnga hurdle race. Jump-ing over waves as high aa a house. She pitched fearfully aud she rolled awfully. TobuggauliiL' was tirlug tne out Ii aug-gested golnn iu a hammock to the other place. My stomach was queasy.

"When are wc going ashore^" 1 asked, "When we get some fiah." said the skip-

per, "This is glorious," 1 stood up a minute longer berolaally,

and thru 1 cidmly lay down In tbe bottom of the vessel—In my white flannels, oh, be-loved reailerl In my while Danncla It wa* wet, and mnckerel had apjiareully Just been shoveled oul of It, but 1 did not care, 1 was Indifferent a» to what became of my clothes or myself.

The skipper liegan to sing 1 cast our implorlug look ul him and "Brings bucket. Pete." he exclaimedto

tbe other boy Pete did as he was told. "Say! Yer ailing yer garmlnta!" re-

marked the skip|ier, i tried to retuambei the things he had sold about the unacru pulous mariner who atole hia swordflab. The sloop lay wullow-ing lu the t rough of tbe aea, and 1 lay wallowing in the trough of the aloop.

We got ashore some time toward night, and after lying on a pile of boards for a couple of hours I got so thut I could stand up aud even sja-iik a few words.

Seeing the Infant lleud passing tip the street in the gloaming I asked him If they got the swordflsb

"No. sir." he said "Didn't ye know bo got away f m us aud took (he harpoon? That's what made the cap'u so Rll-fired mad coming home!"

I shull uot ei. sw ordflablng again UU 1 feel better.—(irand Menan (N B.) Cor. New York World.

THE LAST OF THE VETERANS,

On* of Ilia Few SorrlTon of Thia Coun-try's twcoixl War with Kn^laod.

Gen. Abraham Dally, In full uniform and with nnmerons medals pinned upon his breast, wns the only veteran of 1812 who turned out to do honor to Washing-ton's Ulthday, and he was a guwt of the Veteran Zouaves. The absence of other* wss so conspicuous as to cause people lo aak, "What has liecome of l lie rest of the company'" The fact Is that death has gathered in Ihe brave defenders of the Union, who rallied around Its standard when ll wns for the second lime threatem-d by England's foes, until there Is only a remnnnt of two or three left.

A few years ago It was the practice of the proprietor* of the Fifth Avenue, the Continenlal. or some of the other hotels, to give tho veterans a dinner on each of the holldnys: but they have boen neglect ed in Ibis particular for a year or two One reason for this neclect is that other than the veferani. took Ihe opportunity lo get a free dinner, having uo claim npon the goneroalty of the giver of tbe feast other than that they were acquainted with some of the veterans. Hence this way of rememliering the old heroes five or six times a year with a feast ultimately be-came vexaiioun, and the Inlands and oth-ers could not lie blann-d for disccutinulng theenstom. The reunions of tha "Veter-ans of 1812" hsve each year fallen off In attendance, however, nnd it is doubtful If there will ever lie another.

Gen. Dally hits seemed to surpass all of the others in physical strenijth as well as lo length of life. He is iu bis ninety-fourth year and more hale nnd hearty than most men al TO. lie was born In this city, but for more than forty yean haa lived In the eastern districi of Brooklyn. He Inherits longevity, his falher living until he was ifi yean old. (Jen. Daily's wife, who waa Aon Norman, came from a similar lineage of sturdy and prolific stock.

She lived for sixty-Qve years after her marriage, and raised a family of fifteen children. AlthouKh only five of tbe chil-dren are uow living, the old veteran has more than fifty (iescendants still In the fieah, and be la a great-great-KTandfulher. Biseldeatsoo Is about 73 years old. The title of the old veteran Is not, as many have supposed, one which he earned when in the war of 1818, but It is a conipliment' ary title, aod came to him by election to tbe command of the battalion of veterans npon the denlh of Oen. Raymond, a few yearn ago

Gen. Daily's father was a well to do ship chandler In this city, and for muny years the son worki-d for him. Bul after the war the aon held various positions un der tbe government. Al one time nl~i<ii-u. Dally bail a grocery at Hester street and tbe Bowery, at tbe time when Grand i-trrct was only a little more than a country rood.

MY VENGEANCE.

It came at last We wero in tho libra-TV, I seated before tbe grate, gazing vacantly into the fire; he in on annchalr cloee by, and ahe at thi piano.

Three months before I had met Harry Vane in the out-of-the-way conntry vil-lage where chance had thrown us both, I waa no child; twenty-three mm mere and winters had passed over my head and left me a wearied, unsatisfied wom-an, with nnmerons acquaintances but few friends, much wealth but no happl-ueea, many lovers but no one to love.

Harry Vane was seven years my sen-ior—on educated, traveled, polished man of the world in its best soii-se. We were much together. Onr tartes were similar, though on many, perhaps most, polnti onr opinions were diametrically oppo-site.

1 first admired, then loved him. Two months of unalloyed happiness

went by. I loved him with an intensity at which I myself almost shuddered, and he, perhaps beeanse ho had nothing elso to do, loved me. How did I know that he loved me? 1 never could explain. You might sneer at the foundation on which my belief rested, and possibly yon would bo right.

Then Louise Damorton, ha t ing wear-ied of Saratoga and Newport, nnd hav-ing by some chance discovered my hid-ing place, came too.

She was very beautiful. Even I, who had known ber from childhood, and knew how false was her heart and bow utterly worthless her character, was obliged to admit that a more peerlessly beautiful woman 1 had never seen.

Before three days had passed I felt that I was losing the only hnman being for whom 1 had ever cared, and ere a week was gone I knew that for the time at leart I had lost him. Her beautiful face, ber tasteful dress and her innocent, childish manner had completely en-thralled tho man for whom I wonld have periled my soul.

I said that we wero slopping at an out-of-the-way tillage. The residents them-selves said that it had not grown any in fifty years, and this statement was read-ily believed by the chance visitors, who found that in tbe whole place there waa not a singlo piano. Thia was an unfail-ing source of annoyance to Harry Vane, who was passionately food of music, and who soon learned that Louise was pro-ficient ia the art.

But tho summer passed away, autumn came and our party broke up. The cold winds of December were bowling when we met again. Louise had come to New York to spend a few weeks with tne. We hated each other holly, had always done so, and yet our inlerchange of visits waa frequent. Nor was there any hypocrisy in this; each understood the feelings of tho other thoroughly; "here was not the slightest deception; but each understood that for convenience sake the outwanl appearance of civility must be maintained.

Iliad not seen Harry since summer, but shortly after Louise's arrival he, too, cami- fo New York. The next day he came to dinner and speut the evening. Loniae at his request liad played and sung. She bad demo her best, and done well.

And this brings me to the opening seen. u . s k e t c h . All the time I had been sitting with crossed hands, gazing vacantly into tho fire and thinking with throbbing heart and glowing check that the moment of my triumph was a t hand.

He loved music, and what was her talent to mine? She had not heard me for years, for in my misanthropy 1 had refused to play for any one. and only practiced when entirely alone.

Had she known the t ruth she would never have touched a piano in my preo-ence. But she grew weary of playing ond he, starting from a dreamy trance, arose and set a chair for her by his own.

| "Would you favor ns, MarthaT she I asked, in a half triumphant, half inso-! lent tone. I He gave her an impatient glance; it ' w u provoking to have the charm of her music broken by any ordinary perform-

j once. 1 saw at a glance and undentood it

I perfectly; but without o word I arose and sealed myself at the instrument. 1 sow them exchange smiles: then be threw back his head and ckoed his eyes, as If resigning himself tn what could not be avoided.

Before 1 struck o dozen notes, how-ever, his bead was raised, and in lesa •han five minutes be was at my aide. For an hour or more 1 played, and be, enraptured with tbe strains, never left me.

After that he called almost daily, and with a triumphant swelling of my heart 1 saw how completely Louise had lost her influence and how my own waa re-established. Once n.ore I felt that bo loved me aud this time not because I happened to be the only woman near, but because from a host of comjietitora be had choseu me of lus own good wi l l

Louise KUW that her almost ccrtuin conquetil had become a most humiliating defeat. It cut her to the quick that L ber avowed enemy, should deprive her of tbe lion of the season. She saw her cauoe WHS lost, and to retrieve it resolved on * desperate expedient.

Slie bocanie ill. For several days she wss confined Ui ber room. We thought It only a temporary disorder till the phy-sician gravely Informed me that Miss Damerton's friends ought to lie notified.

I was greuilv startled. My heart mis-gave me fur the jiart 1 had acted toward ber, and thinking she was dying I began to reason bowiniuii better it would have been if I had made no effort to regain Harry Vane's love, 1 thonght how much wiser and stronger I waa than this frail flower; bow much easier It would be for me to go through life alone than this weal- child rs in and trifling a - 1 •n<?w her to be—who had never for a single hour dejiended on herself for pleasure or happinem. In this state of mind I one day asked her if she would like to aee Horry Vane. Tbe flushed cheek and quick glance told how grateful was the question, and made me reproach myself for not mentioning the subject liefora.

He rume of course at my request; my slightest wish liad become his law, bu t his stay wns very brief.

A few days |uinaod and then 1, know-ing the ple-tsure his vMt haii afforded, desired bim to see her again.

He bad acaroely entered the room when 1 waa summ|«ad away aud they

left alone. Procisoly what passed In that strange interview I never knew, but enough 1 gleaned to assure me that Louise made him believe that her illuees and approaching death—she told him •he was dying—wero caused by his in-difference.

Such statements could but make a powerful impression on his highly sensi-tive nature.

He wns bound by no promise to me, ond possibly not knowing tho madneos of my love pledged himself to her.

1 do not think her sickncsa had been entirely feigned. Pride and chagrin had to preyed on her mind as to produce a slight illness, of which she had availed herself to the utmost.

Day hy day she grow stronger. In a little while she was able to leave her room, and soon, the weather becoming milder, to take a short drive,

Harry was her constant companion, I do not believe he loved her, I do not believe it now; but a feeling of chivalry prompted him to devote himself to the woman who, for his sake, had ventured on the doubtful borders of thejfrave.

I did not learn all at once. It waa some time before the full conviction dawned on me, and then I hated her. All my fine theories wero blown to the wind. ' I felt a i d knew that tho love for which she pined with the wantonness of a spoiled child was to me life itself.

She left ns. Spring came, and with it o letter from Loniso asking mo to come to her homo and lie her brides-maid. She was to be munied early in May.

I went, of course, I fonnd Louise Just as I had expected to find her—proud of her conquest, and yet half dreading the man who, in the intercourse of married life, would soon fathom her worthless hear t

W e rode out one bright, sunny morn-ing to enjoy the pure air and visit tho cataract, which tho recent rains had swollen to a miniature Niagara.

My bright morning bad a fearful end-ing.

After half an hour's rapid riding we reined our horses in oo the edge of o steep bank overlooking a beautiful rivu-l e t The scene below was delightful Tho sparkling water, the white pebblea, the green moss and sweet violets made a picture never to be forgotten.

" W e must have some of those flowers as souvenirs of onr ride," Harry re-marked, as he directed his horse down the declivity.

He had reached the margin of the brook, dismounted, and was about to gather the violbts, when a loud shriek from Louise caused both him and nve to turn our eyes toward her.

From some cause her home had be-come restive and she not being able to
