ffhv Only One In the South. a Vory Chuiiuiiij; VUUIIK Luvena Mabry is one of tb? notable characters of Atkuita, Ua, says the New York Sun. Luveua is a flaxeu-huircd, cherry-lipiied girl of twenty-five, with a lorm like llube. She enjoys thu dibtiiiLtiou of bang the only female detective in the South, and has a history that is as romantic as it has been adventurous. Her father lived in Haralson County, where he was a dealer in moonshine whisky.

One day Deputy-Marshal Mark iScott appeared on the scene for the purpose of arresting the old man, but found the daughter instead. Sue Rave him such a tongue-lashing as he had never received before. She was brought to Atlanta a prisoner, where she met United States Marshal Helms, who saw at once that she would a good detective. I could strike a still-house like a hound pup does Blop," she said. The most notable case in which she was engaged was that of Jim McCoy.

Jim had murdered Deputy-Marshal Kellett and a companion. Tho murder peculiarly brutal. In a renconuv ten years before Kellett had wounded McCoy. McCoy extracted tne bullet and kept it for ten years, when he sent it whizzing through Kellett's heart. As all the mountain people were his friends it was found impossible to spot him.

There was a noiahbor with whose daughter McCoy nad illicit relations, and" with her Miss Lavc-na w.ii intimate. She went thereon a visit, aud when she was shown into her room she quietly slipped out of the window and into her friend's room, where she secreted herself under the bed. About midnight McCoy entered and spent tho night, liciore leaving hcuiaUean engagement to return next night. Miss Luvena watched the first opportunity to slip out and into her own room. A few minutes later sue appeared at the breakfast table as thouga nothing had liaj- pened.

She returned to Atlanta in time to give warning, and th-it riyht the ofVers arrested McCoy at the appointed place. In order to carry out her schemes Miss Luvena appears ahead as a -Jlv' 1 young hidy. and makes friend's. She then gives tho points siway to oflircrs. appearing with them hcrsolf in a male so unlike herself that those who kuow her could not detect her.

On another occasion "s'ic hud to spot an illicit distiller in llandolph County, Ala." She learned that the moonshiner hud a comely daughter. Tjuvcna, therefore, i i a a handsome male book-peddler, presented herself at the moonshiner's house. The stranger was all smiles for the younir girl, and soon an making low. Jvoxt day the affair hud progressed fat- enough for the girl to take the stranger completely into her confidence, and she pointed out the still-hens' 1 That night, the establishment was raided, and the girl has never since heard from her lover. "In one, of into Cherokee, she said, tnadc quite a ui.ish on a sweet young lady, mid I am now engaged to marry her.

She sends me the sweetest letters! You ought to see them. I had to play the part of a man up there, and I went in male attire. This young girl took to me at once, and I could not shako her off Ro I just made love to her after the most approved style. "We have been corresponding regularly. My greatest diflicnlty with her is having the dates for tnarri.ige postponed.

She a sweet young thing, and I hate to break the illusion in which sheif so happy." DRESSES FOR DOLLS. A York EMiiblislitiipnt That Is tlihiK i i There is one fashionable dressmaking establishment tip-town on a principle that is thoroughly unique. A York -Vail jind Express reporter Mumbled across it the other day and found it to be utterly unlike anv other establishment that he had ever been in Xew Yuik. except the fact 1hat.it was dorig ing business. It M.IS like other PI.ICOS where feminine wearing app.ux-1 is tn.ide.

loo. in respect that silk.s, Uiccs aiid ribbons werf strewn everywhere, or v're in i i hands of young women who were i and clipping and sewniLT they lint ignorant of dressmaking methods as the reporter was, the more lie looked at the cutting unit i i i it seemed to him that there wrong about, it. Tho dress seemed patterns in miniature, ami expensive gi-odb were being cut up into most diminutive AYilh a reporter's usual ho inquired if thei was not something wrong about the way tho work was done. "Not at was the reply. "But 1 never saw any one that those dresses would hi are finished." "Well, wo do uol i they should fit any one you have ever was the smiling response; '-these are not a sort of dresses.

Tiny an- i i made fur dolls, as all the dresses here This was the secret of the small pattern and the merciless cutting up of costly cloth. This whole establishment was de- votcd to making dreases fur the dolls with which the mothers of a coming generation are just now amusing themselves. It was not much like tho little tumble-down room in which Caleb Plummcr's blind daughter made dresses for dolls of hirrh and low degree, and of no particular degree whatever. The up-town establishment is really a very considerable affair in its way, and some of the small dresses turned out here are as pretentious in their way as those that grace the forms of our Fifth avenue belles. The young ladies, who arc at once the pets and tyrants of wealthy parents are apt to be as fastidious about the quality and tit of their dolls'dresses as their grown-up sisters are about their own gowns, and a pretty penny some of them cost, more sometimes than do the dresses of many grown persons.

The most expensive kinds of silks, satins, laces and ribbons are used in fitting up the dolls sometimes, and some of the dresses come high. Most of the dress-making is done orfirms that sell the dolls, but there is also an individual custom. Many misses have a habit of becoming particularly attached to some particular doll, for winch dresses have frequently to be made. Some of these dolls of degree have regular outfits, which are renewed at intervals, just as those of line ladies are. But, of course, most of the work is different in character.

It is an important business in its way. and gives employment to a considerable number of people, but it is probable that few persons knew heretofore that such a peculiar sort of dress-making establishment was in existence. 1 $ninrtlihK Sew in A new Parisian industry is the manufacture of hoar frost glass, which is covered with feathery patterns resembling thoae naturally produced upon window panes in sold weather. The tflass first given a ground surface, either by the sandblast or the ordinary method, and is then coated with soft Tarnish. The varnish contracts strongly in drying, taking with it the particles of glass to which it adheres, toit very accurately the branch inccrrtUl of frost-work.

A single coat gives a delicate effect, and several bold STRAYS FROM ABROAD. QCKN VICTORIA has announced fief tbat marriage uot a failure. A CHIKESI has been admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of the English colony at Hong Kong. THI palace built by Kinc Louis, of was very expensive, but the receipts for admission there last summer were $36,000. AM immense reservoir is in course of construction in Egypt for the purpose of storing water for irrigation when the annual overflow of the Nile fails.

TEK per cent, of all infants born in Europe die in the first month, twenty per cent, before the end of the first year, and thirty per cent, ol the remainder during first five years. IT is calculated that there are over 200,000 lepers in British India, the minority of whom have places in alms-houses and asylums, the others roaming over the country and subsisting on charity. THE abutments of a bridge over a river in Austria have settled twenty feet in the river bed since 1886. As the settlement progresses the masonry of the bridge is built up correspondingly so as to maintain the same road level. THE most monotonous city in its buildings is Paris, the houses there being almost all alike.

An attempt is now being made to vary this by building houses of the style of the Renaissance and Louis and hope is expressed that the example will be followed generally. LOXDOS spends between $7,000.000 and $3,000,000 a year on potted plants and cut flowers. Many of these flowers come from Holland, France and even Italy. A single culturist in Southern France claims to send every year worth of white lilacs, snowdrops, lilies-of-the-vallcy and roses to London. LOKD SAiisuraT has aroused the hatred of the people in India by referring to Mr.

Dadabhai Maoroji, an Indian candidate who ran for Parliament recently, as a black man. His political opponents have taken the matter up, and accuses him of insulting the whole race India, 200.00U.OOO of which are subjects of the Queen. JAPAN never imports workmen, but sends its citizens to study the arts and sciences. Three voung Japanese men at now in the office of the Surveying Architect of the Treasury at "Washington studying drawing. A bank is to be built at Tokio, and these voung men are permitted to copy the drawings of suitable buildings designed for that purpose.

ACCOBDIXO to "American Notes and Queries," in one of the cellars of ttie Rath- skeller at Bremen, there are twelve large cases of wine, each case containing "the celebrated which was deposited there in 1624. One case of this wine, containing 201 bottles, cost 500 nx dollars at that time. Taking all expenses into account and compounding the interest, a single giass, one-eighth of a bottle, would cost about $300,000, or about V300 a drop." THE AR.r OF KISSING. Osculiilluit Cmtiluri-fl in I-isHt of olosNional Is kissing an art! i here any science in osculation! There certainly i.s, wiys tho Free There is just as much art in adiniiiistei ing a kiss u.s there is in dressing i table or i i an It is not eery kiss, thai is acceptable, nor every attempt that merits commendation. There grades, of ki-sers.

just, as there are grades of pruauhurs or painters. There was i when kisses were fid- upon the buck oi the fair lady's hand. The hand chosen because the face was su paint il and powiieiod that a kiss would h.idlj impair the beauty of the facial ensemble. i ho hands were probably kt jtt whiter a now. A hund-kiss at, bes! is a barren ideality, and the hand would i a in its cleanliness in order to be kissuble.

jfimil- ly the baud took a back seat, and the lips, which n.itu re fashioned to lie kissed, cauie to front. There was an art in bestowing ki.ss on a lady's hand. It hail to be none daintily, delicately, considerately mid --olrinnly in order that the effect should be If there was art, in this, how much more necessity is fur a i performance where th" lips concerned hook at two women kissing. There is plenty of innocent impetuosity in the act, but not much a They rush together like two approaching and if there is not, a percussion equal noise to the explosion of boilers, is enough to let the bystanders know that there bus been some unusual performance. The genuine art of kissing is in its pin lection where members of tho opposite sexes concerned.

1'ut there are fewer men than women who know how to kiss properly. Must men want delicacy, or if von please, idyllic lendei ness in securing the delectable prize. They rush the goal of their desires in a blundering way, like a tiger which gathers itself together and strains all its muscles in one jump in order to overpower its prey. There is no finish a kiss so administered. It is apt to be offensive, because it is so clumsy.

A kiss to be perfect should be bestowed deliberately and carefully' and reverently, with somewhat of the same caution that a man would shoxv if he were to walk among a lot of eggs without injuring any of them. There is nothing in the world that is capable of such nice finish and sentiment as an artistic kiss. But heaven preserve the fair sex from the man who kisses, them as if ho were a sandbagger and she the object to be sandbagged. TAXES!
