21 Some weeks ago a dashing young bachelor named Morrison came to this place and made the acquaintance of a handsome young widow who owned in her own riglit an unincumbered and nice little house and lot They fell in love and finally were married He then pur suaded his wife to sell the property in order to buy with the proceeds a tnoiu desirable place The cash was paid down and ho put it in his pocket and that very night he bade her good by and started for iie train She followed him to tho depot and imploied him to give her part of the money but he slapped the fat pocket book into hi 1 breast coat pocket told her to go to hell and left her standing on the platform as he boarded the train The next morning she received notice to vacate the premises This is hard but it is according to the law Prof Proctors Love Affair Proctor the English astronomer authorizes it to be known that he intends to make America his future home with New York his professional head quarters but will probadly live in St Joseph Mo where he is soon to marry a lady living there She was born and reared in that placemarried there some four years ago and accompanied her husband to Australia for his health About a year ago he died and on her return among the passengers on on shipboard was Mr Proctor The two became acquainted and a deep and growing regard sprang up He accompaniedjher to St Joseph but went not stopping east to fill his lecture engagements-returning however occasional- as circumstances would permit Their formal engagement naturally followed The lady is about twenty five is the mother of two very interesting children and is herself a beautrful and highly cultivated noman The Worf of The Season Milwaukfk March 19 A terrible -now storm raged an early hour the wor of the -ea-on because of the snow being heavy with moi ture and a very high wind The wire- aie down in and the trains are certain to be blockaded The democrats say the republicans have bought Mahone Well suppo the assertion is true have the democracy any reason to parade their extreme virtue It was a democrat aena tor whom the republicans have bought if bought at all and it is probable the only reason the democracy did not make the purchase was becau no re publican senator could found on the market We presume the best way to view the munificent subscription purse iust completed for Gen Grant is a a matter witli winch the public has no concern If the Goulds and the Vanderbilts wish to give their money to Gen Grant it is their affair and if Gen Grant wishes to take their money it is his alfair If we mav however be allowed a word on the ubject it is that Gen Grant would be a much greater man in the eyes of his countrymen if he had politely but firmly told thee gentlemen that he was well able to earn his own li ing and was not need of any assistance just at present Globe Democrat A novelty for trimming dresses and mantles wide galleon on each side of which are two row of leaves made of
