There it stood in the old farmhouse win- dow, that scarlet geranium, its clusters of blossoms glowing like spots of flame, and the velvety green of its leaves expanding with almost tropical luxuriance of growth. No petted favorite of the greenhouse ever thrived more determinedly, for it took its stand en the good old democratic platform, and grew just as vigorously in that low- ceiled room as if rt were the conservatory of a ducal palace. The fire in the chinftey leaped out and fell fitfullywith the uncertain gusts of wind that wailed round the lonely house, and sent the red leaves whirling down the road. The sky was gray and cheerless, save wheie a belt of lurid gold above the western woods maiked the coming cf the sullen November sunset, and an indescribable something of the contagious melancholy in air, earth and sky, seemed to have drifted down on Amy Wilton's heart, as she lay on the chintz-covered sofa beside the fire, her large brown eyes halt closed, and her needie lying idly on the delicate strip of ruffling with which she had been me- chanically busying herself. Was she pretty, do you ask me? Well, that depend* entirely upon one's idea of prettiness. Of color, frrshness, rosy bloom, she had none. Do you call a pale anemone, a fragile violet, or a colorless statue, beauti- ful? Of all these things, Amy Wilton might have reminded one, as she lay there, white and still, the brown braids falling around her oval cheeks, and the small hands crossed upon her breast. "My g'-oduess. Amy. the fire's all going out, and here you are. half asleep!" Amy opened her eyes and became cog- niaant of the bustling presence of a rosy, dimpled damsel, with cheeks like winter apples, and black, roguish eyes, who threw fresh coal upon the fire, gave the hearth-rug an adjusting shake, and bustled around the room with infectious activity. "Better to-night. Amy?" she asked, sud- denly pausing beside the chintz sofa, as a bird might light abruptly on the branch of a tree, fur she was not unlike a bird in her quick motions and careless grace, bright- ened little maiden. •*1 shall be better very soon, Grace," said the sick girl, evasively taking Grace War- ren's rosy fingers in her own transparent palm. "Did you inquire fir letters at the post: ffice, as you came by ?" 6 "Yes ; but there was no letter, of course." Amy was silent a moment, and the unshed tears trembled on her lashes. "Grace," she said softly, "do you remem- ber that It is three years ago to-day since— since Alfred went away?" "I'emcmLer it? Of coarse 1do; and I've not a bit of patience when I remember it! To think how he lias thrown us all aside, tne friends of his youth and poverty, like outgrown garments, now that he has become a famous and prosperous man! And he has even forgotten you, Amy, bis promised wife!" "Hush! There was no formal engage- ment." "I don't care!" ejaculated Grace, with sparkling eyes. "The compact was none the less sacred In heaven's eyes, and if Alfred Courtenay marries that rich heiress people talk about— don't turn so pale. Amy —surely the room is too warm! -hall 1 call your mother?" "No; lam better now," said Amy, try- ing to smile. "It was only a momentary faintnes**, dear." "I know whet It is!" said Grace, nodding her head emphatically. "Doctor Jay always said it wasn't healthy to keep that larpa geranium in the window. Those spreading branches and clusters of flowers sbsoro every breath of fresh air. Let me take it upstairs." "Not for the world, dear said Amy earnestly. "I would not miss the sight of Its cheerful flowers for anything earth can give. Alfred brought it to me when it was a little sprig scarcely two inches high, and he always used to say that its bright blos- 10ms in the win law seemed like a welcome to him in the winter evenings, when—" Amy's voice broke down here, and she turned he: cheek to the pillow, crying qui- jtlv. Grace said nothing, only stroked her friend's brown hair with a touch that was full of unspoken sympathy. She knew that 'ear-, were Amy's best medicine just then. And so we leave the two young girls in lhe red glinting of the firelight and the chill gleam of the November sunset and turn to t far different scene. Mrs. Montague Frances was "at home"— •"at home" amid blazing chandeliers, hot- house japoulcas, and gilded ceilings, to her dear 500 friends in brocades and jewels. The mansion was in a glow from attic to basement— long lines of carriages were set- ting down the fashionable world at the car- peted doorsteps— and the band had just struck up a mazurka, when Mr. Courtenay lounged Into the salon. "There'- your fascinating young lawyer, Madel.n," whispered a bloomingmatron, in black velvet and diamonds, And Madelon Frances turned her stately head, while 'he deep rose color suffused her cheek and brow. The hostess' beautiful daughter was a .brilliaut brunette; the liquid softness of her Jet-black eyes and clear, dark skin made you think of some glowing Spanish picture, while thure was something almost Imperial in the carve of her small, rose-red mouth. Her drets was of simple white muslin, without a solitary ornament, and amid the sliiuing profusion of her raven locks were tainted two or three vivid blossoms of the scarlet geranium. Nor was she the only one In the throng who noticed Courtenay's entrance. A "ris- ing man," his brilliant talents had already constituted him somewhat of a "lion" in metropolitan circles, and he was greeted on all sides with welcoming words. "Here comes Courtenay— wonder when he means to propose?" languidly remarked an exquisitely dressed youth. "Propose— to whom?" asked his com- panion. "Why, to Miss Madelon, of course! It Is pretty plain that she likes him, and he would be a fool to hesitate at the chance of obtaining a beautiful wife and a fortune at the same time. Lucky fellow, that! Well, I, for one, never could see what the ladies hud to admire in Courtenay," re- marked the other, misanthropically, lower- ing his voice as the gentleman in question passed by. "Hallo! what's the matter? He Isn't ill. is he?" For Courtenay bad paused suddenly.with a strange pallor overspreadlne his cheek as his .ye fell upon Miss Frances' beautiful profile? "Tell me," he said, turning to Colonel Anderton, who stood close by, and speak- ing In a husky whisper, "what flower is that Miss Frances wears in her hair?" ••Flower?" repeated Anderton, leaning a little forward to get a glimpse of tho young lady spoken of. "Why, scarlet geranium, of course; and very becoming it is to her And -lii-ian style. But, are you ill, Courte- nay? Shall 1get you a glass of wine? "No; I am perfectly well," returned Courtenay, speaking in a strange unnatural tone. For an Instant the brilliant confusion of the ballroom seemed to have ebbed away, aud he saw only the wide old farmhouse kitchen with its low celling, and— oh. best remembered of all— Amy Wilson's seraph face half visible among the scarlet gera- nium blossoms, as she gazed down the dark- ening roaa watching for his coming form. Allthe mist* of sophism and worldly pride melted from around his breast and ho saw himself as he was—a recreant lover—a cold- blooded deceiver. "It is not yet too late he murmured in- wardly. "Great heavens, and could it be possible that 1 could have contemplated marrying a woman I never loved, merely for her wealth and position? Oh, Amy.my first and only love, help me to prove true to myself aud thee!" "Going, Courtenay— and so early? Why. you have not even spoken to Miss Frances!" ejaculated the colonel, in astonishment, as his friend turned to leave the room. "I must go. 1have just remembered busi- ness of tho utmost Importance," said Courtenay, in hurried and constrained ac- cents. "Make my excuses to the ladies— and my adieus, also, if you will he so kind, colonel? I find myself obliged to leave town for an Indefinite period of time." Before Colonel Anderton could recover breath to ask the meaning of this strange freak, Alfred Courtenay had left the room and the house. The red leaves were raining sorrowfully down from the great tree at the turn of the road as Alfred Courtenay came iv front of the old brown farmhouse with its weather- stained chimneys and the apple orchard at its back. He paused and shaded his eyes with one tremulous baud. There was the window with its white muslin curtains— and there, also, a scarlet geranium blossomed. "I accept the omen," he murmured, once more striding forward. "If she had taken it away 1 should have felt that my place in her heart was justly forfeited— now 1 am reassured!" Softly—softly his footsteps fell on the gray d<i' .stone and tne warm threshold— softly his hand fell on the latch. The fire flashed up as he entered the room, so that he could see Amy's brown hair dropping around her head as she sat with horback to him wearily trying to read. The latch slipped from his touch and clicked warnlngly. *V-.V "Grace, is it you?" There was no answer, and Amy turned round in surprise. Another instant and the bitter years of waiting and disappointment were all forgotten upon Alfred Courtenay's breast! When Grace Warren came In, rosy with her frosty walk, she scarcely recognized pale, fragile Amy Wilton in the blushing, smiling cirl who sat there beside the tall visitor. Happiness is a better physician than all the M.I). . in creation. And when Amy Wilton was married her young friends all marveled that instead of orange bads, or white jessamine, she wore in her soft curls only a blossom of tha scarlet geranium. When they questioned her on the subject she answered simply: "It Is Alfred's favorite flower. A NEW YORK CHURCH. Extern!. e Repairs to Be M- de to s Structure In New York City. New Tort World. The scheme of improvement for St. Mi- chael's Church contemplates a complete re- modelling of the main structure with the exception of the wall on Thirty-first street. The building was erected about fifty-five years ago, and extends through from Thirty- first street, 150 feet west of Ninth avenue. The ground occupied is 75x183:9 feet. About a year ago it was decided that ex- tensive repairs were necessary, but the church authorities were somewhat unsettled until fire destroyed a portion of the north end. The plans for the improvement have been prepared by Architect L. J. O'Connor. The new front on Thirty-second street will be of Indiana buff lime-stone, and while it will he very attractive in appearance, will be without towers. The tower of the rear wall will remain as itis. but the roof line will be raised six feet. The roof will be of Spanish tiles. There are to be four grand entrances to the church from two vestibules, reached by flights of steps. The vestibules will have tiled floors, the ceilings to be paneled in ash. The basement will bo arranged conveni- ently with a large hall for meeting pur- poses, and will be finished in harmony with the remainder of the edifies. The interior of the church will give the effect of loftiness, and yet is designed to be entirely void of that air of coldness char- acteristic of some of the old structures. It will be constructed with special reference to its acoustic properties, the best devices to secure the desired result being used. The ceiling will be vaulted and the aisles will have groined arches. There will be no gal- lery, except that fur the orgau loft The clerestory walls will be carried on heavy iron columns with steel girders. The plaster work will be handsomely orna- mented and the wood work will be in ash, highly finished. The cost is estimated at about $180,000. Small Cities in Kama*. New York Tribune. It is the common belief that Vergenne*, Vt., which was mc roorated in 1788, and now contains only 1773 inhabitants, is the smallest city in the United States. People who hold this belief, however, are vastly mistaken. They ais not aware of the facil- ity with which cities are created under the elastic laws of the State of Kansas, which has no limit on the interior side to determine when a village may as- sume the dignity ot cityhood. In that State there are no less than 862 incorporated cities, while the total number of cities in the United States is only about 1667. Of the 362 Kansas cities only sixteen have more than 5000 inhibatr-ots, 315 have less than 2000, 266 have less than 1000. and ten have less than 100 inhabitants apiece. At the date of the last census the duly in- corporated cities of Acillaand Appomattox in that State rejoiced in the sum total of thirty-four inhabitants each. The absur- dity of a system which penuits such a state of things ought to bring about a change in the laws that would make it-Impossible. -\u25a0 To Cltin Goatskin ltnes. • Ladles' Home Journal. Many inquiries come to me as to how to clean white goatskin rugs. They can be cleaned by washing or with naphtha. Wet a small part of the rug with naphtha and rub with a small cloth until that space is clean ; then clean another place, continu- ing until the entire rug has been treated in this way. Hang in the air until the odor has disappeared. Take care th.it no gas is litin the room while the naphtha is being used. To wash the rug put into a tub about four gallons of tepid water and a half pint of household ammonia. Let the rug soak in this for about half an hour, sopping it up and down in the water frequently. Rinse in several tepid waters and hang on the line to dry. if possible in a shady nlace. Select a windy day lor tins work. Even with the greatest care the skin will become bard when washed. Rubbing it between the hands tends to soften it; or, if may be folded lengthwise, the fur side In, aud then be passed through the clothes-wringer sev- eral times. This, of course, should be done only when the rug is dry. A SANITARY HOLOCAUST. Sailors' Clothes and Bedding Set on Fire. RED TAPE AT WASHINGTON. The Cholera Scare Has No Local Foundation, but the Quarantine Tag Should Have Been Beady Weeks Ago. "It wouldn't be a bad plan to wake up the authorities at Washington. They need It. The quarantine tug is badly wanted." That was what Dr. Lawlor, the Quaran- tine Officer, said to a Call reporter yester- day, when tho subject of the Frank Pendle- ton and the cholera was brought up. Dr. Lawlor happened just then to be tak- ing a spell of rest on the lounge in his office. He wanted it as badly as the State wants the quarantine tug. lie had been out since 5 A. M. and had done a good deal of fumigating before lunch time. ".Between the early rising and the fumes of chlorine 1 have a bit of a headache," said tho doctor. "Sit down and 1will give you an idea of my morning's work. "Of course the last cholera scare is all wrong," ho said. "The Pendleton did not come from a cholera port. There Is noth- ing to show she had chuleia on board, Still I took no chances. It is most improbable, not to say impossible, that a vessel could be four months on a trip with a recent case of cholera on board or anything likely to con- rev tho disease. "Still 1 made up my mind to take extreme measures. I went iuto the forecastle of the Pendleton, had all the sailors' clothing and all their bedding brought out, saturated them with coal oil, burned them up and had the ashes thrown ovet board. "This was in addition to a thorough fumi- gation of the ship. All the closets and every possible source of infection were flushed and disinfected. "When 1 had finished the work Captain Nichols protected vigorously, but ended by ordering fresh clothing and bedding for the crew. That ends the matter so far as lam concerned." Replying to a question as to when the new quarantine tug would be ready for service, Dr. Lawlor intimated that this was a case in which red tape was master of the situation. The joint State and local Boards of Health, ne said, have united in an urgent telegram to Washington, asking for the tug to be put in sei vice. No answer has been received. It seems that the appropriation has been exhausted, and there is not even money to hire a crew ; but how easy to take the money from some other fund, especially as the amount required is so small. , "Look at the amount that is being ex- pended In the East," said the doctor. "Cholera may get in at the back door while the front door is closed and barred. "So far I have been able to make things safe by a thorough fumigation with chlorine gas, developed by mixing sulphuric acid, common salt and black oxide of manganese In suitable vessels. But it takes a lot of time, and the tug, with the apparatus on board ready prepared, could do the work iv an hour." The doctor was asked about the City of Puebla, which arrived yesterday morning aud was held at Meiggs Wharf. "She had no immigrants on board, so I contented myself with fumigating the pas- sengers' baggage, and allowed her to deck at noon. She had a clean bill of health, too. "Where a ship comes in with a case of Infectious sickness on board I should not only fumigate the baggage, but have the passengers transferred to Angel Island, their clothes removed and treated by heated air and themselves put through disinfecting bathe. That is an extreme step, of course. "The President's proclamation does not Include ships which do not carry immi- grants, and this Is why I did not put the British ship Candida from Rangoon in quar- antine. She, too, had a clean bill of health. Here it is. "This national cholera scare has done good in San Francisco in one respect," said Dr. Lawior in conclusion. "We nave had a good clean up. "The Call made a point in showing that Chinatown is not by any means tha only filthspot in this city." Sea anil Shore Item*. It ia stated that the Chinese pay the smug- glers on Puget Sound from 8100 to $170 per head for bringing them into this country. The average price is about $100. From twenty to tliirty Chinese are carried in one boat at a time. On the Ist inst. the grain fleet en route from the Pacific Coast to Europe was 42 ships from California, 9 from Oregon nnd 3 from Washington, making a total of 54 vessels. In 1891 there were 88 from Califor- nia, 26 from Oregon and 10 from Washing- ton, a total of 130 vessels. As an example of the value of recent cargoes, it may be stated that the Thirlmere took out toLeith, Scotland, 59,917 centals of barley, worth £58,000; the Eulomene 90,151 centals of wheat to Queenstown, worth 1117,200' the British Yeoman 64,129 centals to Hull, worth £89,780, and the Falls of Clyde 59.935 centals to Queenstown, valued at 379,414. The oddities of nomenclature in certain lines of steam and sailing ships have never been explained except en the grounds of idiosyncrasy or convenience. Thus the Cunarders all end in "ia"—the Kussia, Gallia, Etruria, Umbria, etc. The lnmans are cities— the City of Koine, City of Paris, etc. The Wilson line has a leaning to the final "o"— the Komeo, Othello, Cameo, Marengo, Virago, for example. The White Star lean 3to the "ic's," a* the Germanic, Teutonic, etc. In the sailing lines there is one firm which deals in •"Knights," as the Knight Errant, Knight Commander, and so on. There is a line of Saints and another line of Prince". About the only thing not recorded is a line of Maids; and yet "Maid of Athens," "Maid of Artols," "Maid of Orleans," are appropriate and suggestive names, and a long list might be made. The Spreckels tow boats are all named with ad- jectives of the ready-for-work style; and one firm has named its scow-schooners after the counties of the State. Otherwise a uniform system of nomenclature does not prevail among San Francisco shipping men. WHERE RENAN WORKS. Hurled Anion*- Books and Papers the SiivHiit -.ire* a Quiet Life "College de France, staircase A, second floor, to the left, is a green baize door.which is opened by a neat maidservant. You pass through three or four rooms of bare, pro- vincial and priestly aspect, scantily and austerely furnished. Along the walls are open shelves laden with books in tho living and dead languages of the east and west, and here and there a drawing by Ary SchKffer, or an antiquated engraving in a clumsy old-fashioned frame," says Theodore Child in Harper's Magazine. "The last room is M. Ernest Renan's study. Itis furnished with bookcases and armchairs upholstered in red velvet; on the mantelpiece, between two candelabra of the time of the first empire. Is a bust of the eru- dite Victor le Clerc; on one wall a portrait of Mme. Kenan when she was a girl. At a table facing the window, with his fur cap, ids magnifying glass, his cuneiform inscrip- tions and his bonks and papers spread out before him, M. Kenan sits, rotund and epis- copal, his hands crossed over his shapeless body, from which the large head emerges, rosy and silvery, the face broad, with big features, a great nose, enormous cheeks heavily modeled in abundant flash, a deli- cate and mobile mouth and gray Celtic eyes, alternately full of dreams and of smiles.' This is the habitual attitude dur- ing a few moments' pause for meditation, and. as if by a sort of physical reminiscence of his priestly education, the crossing of the hands is accompanied by a muttering and susurration of the lips. 'Tn his study, in the lecture-room, in so- ciety and in his writings M. Kenan seems to be always gay and always ironical. His smile is one of the most fascinating enigmas of literary Paris, and its explanation, ifwe can discover it, will throw light on several tendencies of contemporary Francs." A STORE ON SHIPBOARD. An Innovation to Be Introduced on Atlantic Steamers. New York Mall and Express. The steamship men are talking of adopt ing another gigantic wrinkle. It isn't a three days' transatlantic traveler this time or even a system of air brakes to check a vessel in a fog, but simply and plainly a notion counter on shipboard. "it is a capital idea," said the originator, who, by the way, manages one of the big- gest linen running between the Mersey and tills port, to a Mail and Express man. "it is our Intention to establish a counter on every one of our ships. The department will be in charge of a landsman and an as- sistant,the latter a Betty officer, on; board. It will be ne-essary to select a landsman, because sailormen know very little about notion counters. Every to be found in a first-class dry-goods store will be put on this counter; every hint?, I say, with the Eossible exception of the latest fang'e in on nets and Iruuks. ' v "We'll run a full line and sell as good and as clean goods as any firm on shore. .The time is gone by when passengers have to be inconvenienced" through an oversight in having forgot to pack away sbo.-buttoners, a particular kind of glove, a hairbrush, a' handglass pr any other article that makes huui&h nature kind and good. No, we wont have any special sales, but we'll have sS|ks and ginghams in abundance, that the ladies may have a chance to while away the monotony of the voyage. It's a big scheme and it will be a great boon to our patrons when it is fully established. We will not intend to make money of the concern. One buyer at each side of the ocean will keep us supplied, and to pay them and the attend- ants will be the only profit that we will lay aside. The scheme is practicable aud ought to go with a rush." v .-'„", A HOG-RANCH DIFFICULTY. The Moral of ItIs, Do Tour Own Courting. A Suit in the High Court of Love Mixed Up With Another in a L*ss Ethereal Court. H. Schroeder recently returned from a long visit to Honolulu. Vw'v In thai part of the globe there is said to be considerable latitude allowed as regards clothing and courting. Schroeder returned all right as to clothes, but retaining some remnants of derange- ment on the courting question. "You ought to marry," he told his son, who accompanied him, "but you are too bashful with the girls. "Take a high baud with them, my boy ; show them you are master and they will soon come to heel. "You see I'll have you married in a week after landing." On arriving in San Francisco they were received by H. Graepe), Schroeder's brother-in-law, and his niece, Mrs. C. Hansen. Willi the latter Schroeder Jr. imme- diately fell in love. She was a petite per- son of considerable force of character. Graepel received them into his house, and things were very comfortable for awhile. He mentioned to his guests that he was Interested in a hog ranch near town, and threw out feelers that Schroeder Sr. should come iuto paitnersliip. Schroeder Sr., however, was otherwise occupied. To tell the truth, he was disgusted at the slow rate of his son's wooing and had con- ceived the gigantic, but in Honolulu per- fectly regular, idea of doing his courting for him. v ' Inthe meantime, however, rather to get rid of Graepel' importunities than other- wise, he lent that gentleman SIGO to mako improvements on the hog ranch near town. Pretty soon theie was an explosion. Mrs. Hansen had never lived in Honolulu ond imagined that Schroeder was courting her for himself. When she learned that bis advances were on another's account her scorn knew no bounds. . She said she thought itreal mean of her uncle's partner to act so. The word "partner" alarmed Schroeder. Could thero be a scheme afoot to make out that the |160 he loaned to improve the bogs' condition was paid as a part of the price of partner-hip in the hog?? The idea was too much, but on suing Graepel for the return of the money be found to his disgust that that was the im- pression Gra-pel had received. Mrs. Hansen even appeared to testify that the partnership was agreed to. Another gentleman had caught her heart on the rebound.it may mentioned* and she was married two days before coming into court. Her testimony would have been conclu- sive had not a witness appeared who proved that Graepel had admitted the loan in a police court, where he had been charged with some petty offense. Justice of the Peace Cook was therefore enabled to eive judgment and costs for the plaintiff, Sehroeder, who is going back to Honolulu by the first boat. He is thinking of leaving his son to collect the judgment down at the hog ranch, but Srtiroeder Jr. is afraid of meeting Mrs. Hansen and her withering glance as she re- calls her wooing by proxy. A FAITHFUL WIFE. Lady Dilke Hat Never Doubted the Honor of II *• r liutb.nil. Chica-o Herald. There are several reasons why the name of Lady Dilke attracts more or less atten- tion among women and men. For the last three or four years she and her husband have been living abroad In retirement, on account of the scandal in which Sir Charles Dilke was concerned several years ago; but now that he has returned to England and has been elected to Parliament this charm- ing woman is sure to be beard cf more fre- quently. Lady Dilke is said to be the original of Dorothea Casaubon In "Middlemarch." Her first husband. Rev. Mark Pattison, was a great friend of George Eliot. He married the present Lady Dilke when she was scarcely more than a slip of a girl. They lived happily together for many years and on his deathbed the old clergyman told her that if she should ever meet a man she could fall genuinely in love with it was bis wish that she should marry him. She had been a widow for several years when she first met Sir Charles Dilke. They became engaged and the marriage was set for a year hence. Airs. Pattison started on a tour through Egypt In the meantime. While she was there the news of her lover's disgrace was brought to her. She returned to England immediately and in spite of the protests of her relatives and friends she insisted upon being married on the spot. She would hear no word against Sir Charles, and to this day she declare* that he is an innocent and greatly wronged man. They wore married very quietly and started on a tour of Europe and Asia, which lasted nearly two years. Lady Dilke is an accomplished woman who, besides being a recognized authority on all art subjects, has written several ex- tremely clever books. Her loving constancy and implicit faith in her husband's Innocence has done more to turn the tide of public opinion in his favor than anything else iv the world could have done. An Electrical Dairy. A gentleman of leisure in England has taken up dairr-farming ns a hobby, and after visiting all the best dairies on the continent of Europe and securing the best advice as to machinery and utensils, has just built a dairy the like of which has never been seen. The building, which is of Carrara marble, is fitted throughout with electric light, and all the motive power for separators' and churns and washing pur- poses is supplied by electricity. The open- ing of tois palatial edifice was performed with great ceremony by the Lady Mayoress of London and Is expected to make the be- ginning of a considerable extension, of scientific dairying.

HIS FAVORITE FLOWER.There it stood in the old farmhouse win-

dow, that scarlet geranium, its clusters ofblossoms glowing like spots of flame, andthe velvety green of its leaves expanding

with almost tropical luxuriance of growth.

No petted favorite of the greenhouse everthrived more determinedly, for it took itsstand en the good old democratic platform,

and grew just as vigorously in that low-ceiled room as if rt were the conservatoryofa ducal palace.

The fire in the chinftey leaped out andfell fitfullywith the uncertain gusts of windthat wailed round the lonely house, andsent the red leaves whirling down the road.The sky was gray and cheerless, save wheiea belt of lurid gold above the westernwoods maiked the coming cf the sullenNovember sunset, and an indescribablesomething of the contagious melancholy inair, earth and sky, seemed to have drifteddown on Amy Wilton's heart, as she lay onthe chintz-covered sofa beside the fire, herlarge brown eyes halt closed, and herneedie lying idly on the delicate strip ofruffling with which she had been me-chanically busying herself.

Was she pretty, do you ask me? Well,

that depend* entirely upon one's idea ofprettiness. Of color, frrshness, rosy bloom,she had none. Do you call a pale anemone,a fragile violet, or a colorless statue, beauti-ful? Of all these things, Amy Wiltonmight have reminded one, as she lay there,white and still, the brown braids fallingaround her oval cheeks, and the small handscrossed upon her breast.

"My g'-oduess. Amy. the fire's all goingout, and here you are. half asleep!"

Amyopened her eyes and became cog-niaant of the bustling presence of a rosy,dimpled damsel, with cheeks like winterapples, and black, roguish eyes, who threwfresh coal upon the fire, gave the hearth-rugan adjusting shake, and bustled around theroom with infectious activity.

"Better to-night. Amy?"she asked, sud-denly pausing beside the chintz sofa, as abird might light abruptly on the branch ofa tree, fur she was not unlike a bird in herquick motions and careless grace, bright-ened little maiden.

•*1 shall be better very soon, Grace," saidthe sick girl,evasively taking Grace War-ren's rosy fingers in her own transparentpalm. "Did you inquire fir letters at thepost: ffice, as you came by ?"6 "Yes;but there was no letter, of course."

Amy was silent a moment, and the unshedtears trembled on her lashes.

"Grace," she said softly, "do you remem-ber that Itis three years ago to-day since—since Alfred went away?"

"I'emcmLer it? Of coarse 1do; and I'venot a bit of patience when Iremember it!To think how he lias thrown us all aside,tne friends of his youth and poverty, likeoutgrown garments, now that he has becomea famous and prosperous man! And he haseven forgotten you, Amy, bis promisedwife!"

"Hush! There was no formal engage-ment.""I don't care!" ejaculated Grace, with

sparkling eyes. "The compact was nonethe less sacred In heaven's eyes, and ifAlfred Courtenay marries that rich heiresspeople talk about— don't turn so pale. Amy—surely the room is too warm! -hall 1call your mother?"

"No; lam better now," said Amy, try-ing to smile. "Itwas only a momentaryfaintnes**, dear.""Iknow whet It is!" said Grace, nodding

her head emphatically. "Doctor Jayalways said itwasn't healthy to keep thatlarpa geranium in the window. Thosespreading branches and clusters of flowerssbsoro every breath of fresh air. Let metake itupstairs."

"Not for the world, dear said Amyearnestly. "Iwould not miss the sight ofIts cheerful flowers for anything earth cangive. Alfred brought itto me when it wasa little sprig scarcely two inches high, andhe always used to say that its bright blos-10ms in the win law seemed like a welcometo him in the winter evenings, when—"

Amy's voice broke down here, and sheturned he: cheek to the pillow,crying qui-jtlv. Grace said nothing, only stroked herfriend's brown hair with a touch that wasfull of unspoken sympathy. She knew that'ear-, were Amy's best medicine just then.

And so we leave the two young girls inlhe red glinting of the firelightand the chillgleam of the November sunset and turn tot far different scene.

Mrs. Montague Frances was "at home"—•"at home" amid blazing chandeliers, hot-house japoulcas, and gilded ceilings, to herdear 500 friends in brocades and jewels.The mansion was in a glow from attic tobasement— long lines of carriages were set-tingdown the fashionable world at the car-peted doorsteps— and the band had juststruck up a mazurka, when Mr. Courtenaylounged Into the salon.

"There'- your fascinating young lawyer,Madel.n," whispered a bloomingmatron, inblack velvet and diamonds,

And Madelon Frances turned her statelyhead, while 'he deep rose color suffused hercheek and brow.

The hostess' beautiful daughter was a.brilliautbrunette; the liquidsoftness of herJet-black eyes and clear, dark skin madeyou think of some glowing Spanish picture,while thure was something almost Imperialin the carve of her small, rose-red mouth.Her drets was of simple white muslin,without a solitary ornament, and amid thesliiuing profusion of her raven locks weretainted two or three vivid blossoms of thescarlet geranium.

Nor was she the only one In the throngwho noticed Courtenay's entrance. A "ris-ing man," his brilliant talents had alreadyconstituted him somewhat of a "lion"inmetropolitan circles, and he was greeted onall sides with welcoming words.

"Here comes Courtenay— wonder when hemeans to propose?" languidly remarked anexquisitely dressed youth.

"Propose— to whom?" asked his com-panion.

"Why, to Miss Madelon, of course! ItIspretty plain that she likes him, and hewould be a fool to hesitate at the chance ofobtaining a beautiful wife and a fortune atthe same time. Lucky fellow, that!Well, I, for one, never could see whatthe ladies hud to admire in Courtenay," re-marked the other, misanthropically, lower-ing his voice as the gentleman in questionpassed by. "Hallo! what's the matter?He Isn't ill.is he?"

For Courtenay bad paused suddenly.witha strange pallor overspreadlne his cheekas his .ye fellupon Miss Frances' beautifulprofile?

"Tell me," he said, turning to ColonelAnderton, who stood close by, and speak-ing In a husky whisper, "what flower is thatMiss Frances wears in her hair?"••Flower?" repeated Anderton, leaning a

little forward to get a glimpse of tho younglady spoken of. "Why, scarlet geranium,of course; and very becoming it is to herAnd -lii-ianstyle. But, are you ill,Courte-nay? Shall 1get you a glass of wine?

"No; Iam perfectly well," returnedCourtenay, speaking in a strange unnaturaltone.

For an Instant the brilliant confusion ofthe ballroom seemed to have ebbed away,aud he saw only the wide old farmhousekitchen with its low celling, and— oh. bestremembered of all—Amy Wilson's seraphface half visible among the scarlet gera-

nium blossoms, as she gazed down the dark-ening roaa watching for his coming form.Allthe mist* of sophism and worldly pridemelted from around his breast and ho sawhimself as he was—a recreant lover—a cold-blooded deceiver."Itis not yet too late he murmured in-

wardly. "Great heavens, and could itbepossible that 1 could have contemplatedmarrying a woman Inever loved, merely

for her wealth and position? Oh, Amy.myfirst and only love, help me to prove true tomyself aud thee!"

"Going, Courtenay— and so early? Why.you have not even spoken to MissFrances!"ejaculated the colonel, in astonishment, ashis friend turned to leave the room.

"Imust go. 1have just remembered busi-ness of tho utmost Importance," saidCourtenay, in hurried and constrained ac-cents. "Make my excuses to the ladies—and my adieus, also, if you willhe so kind,colonel? Ifind myself obliged to leavetown for an Indefinite period of time."

Before Colonel Anderton could recoverbreath to ask the meaning of this strangefreak, Alfred Courtenay had left the roomand the house.

The red leaves were raining sorrowfullydown from the great tree at the turn of theroad as Alfred Courtenay came iv front ofthe old brown farmhouse with its weather-stained chimneys and the apple orchard atits back.

He paused and shaded his eyes withonetremulous baud. There was the windowwith its white muslin curtains— and there,also, a scarlet geranium blossomed."Iaccept the omen," he murmured, once

more striding forward. "Ifshe had takenitaway 1should have felt that my place inher heart was justly forfeited— now 1 amreassured!"

Softly—softly his footsteps fell on thegray d<i' .stone and tne warm threshold—softly his hand fell on the latch.

The fire flashed up as he entered theroom, so that he could see Amy's brownhair dropping around her head as she satwith horback to him wearily trying to read.The latch slipped from his touch and clickedwarnlngly. *V-.V

"Grace, is it you?"There was no answer, and Amy turned

round in surprise. Another instant and thebitter years of waiting and disappointmentwere all forgotten upon Alfred Courtenay'sbreast!

When Grace Warren came In,rosy withher frosty walk, she scarcely recognizedpale, fragile Amy Wilton in the blushing,smiling cirl who sat there beside thetall visitor. Happiness is a better physicianthan all the M.I).. in creation.

And when Amy Wilton was married heryoung friends all marveled that instead oforange bads, or white jessamine, she worein her soft curls only a blossom of thascarlet geranium. When they questionedher on the subject she answered simply:

"ItIs Alfred's favorite flower.

A NEW YORK CHURCH.Extern!. e Repairs to Be M-de to s

Structure In New York City.

New Tort World.The scheme of improvement for St. Mi-

chael's Church contemplates a complete re-modelling of the main structure with theexception of the wall on Thirty-first street.The building was erected about fifty-fiveyears ago, and extends through from Thirty-firststreet, 150 feet west ofNinth avenue.The ground occupied is 75x183:9 feet.

About a year ago it was decided that ex-tensive repairs were necessary, but thechurch authorities were somewhat unsettled

until fire destroyed a portion of the northend. The plans for the improvement havebeen prepared by Architect L. J. O'Connor.The new front on Thirty-second street willbe of Indiana buff lime-stone, and while itwillhe very attractive in appearance, willbe without towers. The tower of the rearwall willremain as itis. but the roof linewillbe raised six feet. The roof willbe ofSpanish tiles.

There are to be four grand entrances tothe church from two vestibules, reached byflights of steps. The vestibules will havetiled floors, the ceilings to be paneled in ash.The basement will bo arranged conveni-ently with a large hall for meeting pur-poses, and willbe finished in harmony withthe remainder of the edifies.

The interior of the church willgive theeffect of loftiness, and yet is designed to beentirely void of that air of coldness char-acteristic of some of the old structures. Itwill be constructed with special referenceto its acoustic properties, the best devices tosecure the desired result being used. Theceiling will be vaulted and the aisles willhave groined arches. There will be no gal-lery, except that fur the orgau loft

The clerestory walls will be carried onheavy iron columns with steel girders. Theplaster work will be handsomely orna-mented and the wood work willbe in ash,highly finished. The cost is estimated atabout $180,000.

Small Cities in Kama*.New York Tribune.

Itis the common belief that Vergenne*,Vt., which was mc roorated in 1788, andnow contains only 1773 inhabitants, is thesmallest city in the United States. Peoplewho hold this belief, however, are vastlymistaken. They ais not aware of the facil-ity with which cities are created under theelastic laws of the State of Kansas, whichhas no limit on the interior sideto determine when a village may as-sume the dignity ot cityhood. In thatState there are no less than 862incorporated cities, while the total numberof cities in the United States is only about1667. Of the 362 Kansas cities only sixteenhave more than 5000 inhibatr-ots, 315 haveless than 2000, 266 have less than 1000. andten have less than 100 inhabitants apiece.Atthe date of the last census the duly in-corporated cities of Acillaand Appomattoxin that State rejoiced in the sum total ofthirty-four inhabitants each. The absur-dityof a system which penuits such a stateof things ought to bring about a change inthe laws that would make it-Impossible.

To Cltin Goatskin ltnes.•

Ladles' Home Journal.Many inquiries come to me as to how to

clean white goatskin rugs. They can becleaned by washing or withnaphtha.Wet a small part of the rug withnaphtha

and rub witha small cloth until that spaceis clean ;then clean another place, continu-inguntil the entire rug has been treated inthis way. Hang in the air until the odorhas disappeared. Take care th.it no gas islitin the room while the naphtha is beingused. To wash the rug putinto a tub aboutfour gallons of tepid water and a half pintof household ammonia. Let the rug soak inthis for about half an hour, sopping it upand down in the water frequently. Rinseinseveral tepid waters and hang on the lineto dry. if possible in a shady nlace. Selecta windyday lor tins work. Even with thegreatest care the skin will become bardwhen washed. Rubbing it between thehands tends to soften it; or, if may befolded lengthwise, the fur side In, aud thenbe passed through the clothes-wringer sev-eral times. This, of course, should be doneonly when the rug is dry.

A SANITARY HOLOCAUST.Sailors' Clothes and Bedding

Set on Fire.

RED TAPE AT WASHINGTON.

The Cholera Scare Has No Local Foundation,but the Quarantine Tag Should Have

Been Beady Weeks Ago.

"It wouldn't be a bad plan to wake upthe authorities at Washington. They needIt. The quarantine tug is badly wanted."

That was what Dr. Lawlor, the Quaran-tine Officer, said to a Call reporter yester-

day, when tho subject of the Frank Pendle-ton and the cholera was brought up.

Dr. Lawlor happened just then to be tak-ing a spell of rest on the lounge in his office.

He wanted itas badly as the State wantsthe quarantine tug.

lie had been out since 5 A. M. and haddone a good deal of fumigating before lunchtime.

".Between the early rising and the fumesof chlorine 1have a bit of a headache," saidtho doctor. "Sit down and 1willgive youan idea of my morning's work.

"Of course the last cholera scare is allwrong," ho said. "The Pendleton did notcome from a cholera port. There Is noth-ing to show she had chuleia on board, StillItook no chances. Itis most improbable,not to say impossible, that a vessel could befour months on a trip with a recent case ofcholera on board or anything likely to con-rev tho disease.

"Still1 made up my mind to take extrememeasures. Iwent iuto the forecastle of thePendleton, had all the sailors' clothing andall their bedding brought out, saturatedthem with coal oil, burned them up and hadthe ashes thrown ovet board.

"This was inaddition to a thorough fumi-gation of the ship. All the closets andevery possible source of infection wereflushed and disinfected.

"When 1had finished the work CaptainNichols protected vigorously, but ended byordering fresh clothing and bedding for thecrew. That ends the matter so far as lamconcerned."

Replying to a question as to when thenew quarantine tug would be ready forservice, Dr.Lawlor intimated that this wasa case in which red tape was master of thesituation.

The joint State and local Boards ofHealth, ne said, have united in an urgenttelegram to Washington, asking for the tugto be put in sei vice.

No answer has been received.Itseems that the appropriation has been

exhausted, and there is not even money tohire a crew ;but how easy to take themoney from some other fund, especially asthe amount required is so small. ,

"Look at the amount that is being ex-pended In the East," said the doctor.

"Cholera may get in at the back doorwhile the frontdoor is closed and barred.

"So far Ihave been able to make thingssafe by a thorough fumigation withchlorinegas, developed by mixing sulphuric acid,common salt and black oxide of manganeseIn suitable vessels. But it takes a lot oftime, and the tug, with the apparatus onboard ready prepared, could do the work ivan hour."

The doctor was asked about the City ofPuebla, which arrived yesterday morningaud was held at Meiggs Wharf.

"She had no immigrants on board, so Icontented myself with fumigating the pas-sengers' baggage, and allowed her to deckat noon. She had a clean billof health, too.

"Where a ship comes in with a case ofInfectious sickness on board Ishould notonly fumigate the baggage, but have thepassengers transferred to Angel Island,their clothes removed and treated by heatedair and themselves put through disinfectingbathe. That is an extreme step, of course.

"The President's proclamation does notInclude ships which do not carry immi-grants, and this Is why Idid not put theBritish ship Candida from Rangoon in quar-antine. She, too, had a clean billof health.Here it is.

"This national cholera scare has donegood in San Francisco in one respect," saidDr. Lawior in conclusion. "We nave had agood clean up.

"The Call made a point in showing thatChinatown is not by any means tha onlyfilthspot in this city."

It ia stated that the Chinese pay the smug-glers on Puget Sound from 8100 to $170 perhead for bringing them into this country.The average price is about $100. Fromtwenty to tliirtyChinese are carried in oneboat at a time.

On the Ist inst. the grain fleet en routefrom the Pacific Coast to Europe was 42ships from California, 9 from Oregon nnd 3from Washington, making a total of 54vessels. In1891 there were 88 from Califor-nia, 26 from Oregon and 10 from Washing-ton, a total of 130 vessels. As an exampleof the value of recent cargoes, it may bestated that the Thirlmere took out toLeith,Scotland, 59,917 centals of barley, worth£58,000; the Eulomene 90,151 centals ofwheat to Queenstown, worth 1117,200' theBritish Yeoman 64,129 centals to Hull,worth £89,780, and the Falls of Clyde59.935 centals to Queenstown, valued at379,414.

The oddities of nomenclature incertainlines of steam and sailing ships have neverbeen explained except en the grounds ofidiosyncrasy or convenience. Thus theCunarders all end in "ia"—the Kussia,Gallia, Etruria, Umbria, etc. The lnmansare cities— the City of Koine, City of Paris,etc. The Wilson line has a leaning to thefinal "o"—the Komeo, Othello, Cameo,Marengo, Virago, for example. The WhiteStar lean 3to the "ic's," a* the Germanic,Teutonic, etc. Inthe sailing lines there isone firm which deals in •"Knights," as theKnight Errant, Knight Commander, and soon. There is a line of Saints and anotherline of Prince". About the only thing notrecorded is a line of Maids; and yet "Maidof Athens," "Maid of Artols," "Maid ofOrleans," are appropriate and suggestivenames, and a long list might be made. TheSpreckels tow boats are all named with ad-jectives of the ready-for-work style; andone firm has named its scow-schooners afterthe counties of the State. Otherwise auniform system of nomenclature does notprevail among San Francisco shipping men.

WHERE RENAN WORKS.Hurled Anion*- Books and Papers the

SiivHiit -.ire* a Quiet Life"College de France, staircase A,second

floor, to the left, is a green baize door.whichis opened by a neat maidservant. You passthrough three or four rooms of bare, pro-vincial and priestly aspect, scantily andausterely furnished. Along the walls areopen shelves laden with books in tho livingand dead languages of the east and west,and here and there a drawing by ArySchKffer, or an antiquated engraving in aclumsy old-fashioned frame," says TheodoreChild in Harper's Magazine.

"The last room is M. Ernest Renan'sstudy. Itis furnished with bookcases andarmchairs upholstered in red velvet; on themantelpiece, between two candelabra of thetime of the first empire. Is a bust of the eru-dite Victor le Clerc; on one wall a portraitof Mme. Kenan when she was a girl. Atatable facing the window, withhis furcap, idsmagnifying glass, his cuneiform inscrip-tions and his bonks and papers spread outbefore him, M. Kenan sits, rotund and epis-copal, his hands crossed over his shapelessbody, from which the large head emerges,rosy and silvery, the face broad, with bigfeatures, a great nose, enormous cheeksheavily modeled in abundant flash, a deli-cate and mobile mouth and gray Celticeyes, alternately full of dreams and ofsmiles.' This is the habitual attitude dur-ing a few moments' pause for meditation,and. as ifby a sort of physical reminiscenceof his priestly education, the crossing ofthe hands is accompanied by a mutteringand susurration of the lips.

'Tn his study, in the lecture-room, in so-ciety and in his writings M.Kenan seems tobe always gay and always ironical. Hissmile is one of the most fascinating enigmasof literary Paris, and its explanation, ifwecan discover it, will throw lighton severaltendencies of contemporary Francs."

A STORE ON SHIPBOARD.An Innovation to Be Introduced on

Atlantic Steamers.New York Mall and Express.

The steamship men are talking of adopting another gigantic wrinkle. It isn't athree days' transatlantic traveler this timeor even a system of air brakes to check avessel in a fog, but simply and plainly anotion counter on shipboard.

"itis a capital idea," said the originator,who, by the way, manages one of the big-gest linen running between the Mersey andtills port, to a Mail and Express man. "itis our Intention to establish a counter onevery one of our ships. The departmentwillbe in charge of a landsman and an as-sistant,the latter a Betty officer, on; board.Itwill be ne-essary to select a landsman,because sailormen know very little aboutnotion counters. Every to be found

in a first-class dry-goods store will be puton this counter; every hint?, Isay, with the

Eossible exception of the latest fang'e inonnets and Iruuks.

A HOG-RANCH DIFFICULTY.

The Moral of ItIs, Do TourOwn Courting.

A Suit in the High Court of Love Mixed UpWith Another in a L*ss Ethereal

Court.

H. Schroeder recently returned from along visit to Honolulu. Vw'v

In thai part of the globe there is said tobe considerable latitude allowed as regards

clothing and courting.

Schroeder returned allright as to clothes,but retaining some remnants of derange-ment on the courting question.

"You ought to marry," he told his son,who accompanied him, "but you are toobashful with the girls.

"Take a high baud with them, my boy;show them you are master and they willsoon come to heel.

"You see I'llhave you married in a weekafter landing."

On arriving in San Francisco they werereceived by H. Graepe), Schroeder'sbrother-in-law, and his niece, Mrs. C.Hansen.

Willi the latter Schroeder Jr. imme-diately fell in love. She was a petite per-son of considerable force of character.

Graepel received them into his house,and things were very comfortable forawhile.

He mentioned to his guests that he wasInterested in a hog ranch near town, andthrew out feelers that Schroeder Sr. shouldcome iuto paitnersliip.

Schroeder Sr., however, was otherwiseoccupied.

To tell the truth, he was disgusted at theslow rate of his son's wooing and had con-ceived the gigantic, but in Honolulu per-fectly regular, idea of doing his courtingfor him. v

'

Inthe meantime, however, rather to getrid of Graepel' importunities than other-wise, he lent that gentleman SIGO to makoimprovements on the hog ranch near town.

Pretty soon theie was an explosion.Mrs. Hansen had never lived in Honolulu

ond imagined that Schroeder was courtingher for himself. When she learned that bisadvances were on another's account herscorn knew no bounds. .

She said she thought itreal mean of heruncle's partner to act so.

The word "partner" alarmed Schroeder.Could thero be a scheme afoot to make outthat the |160 he loaned to improve the bogs'condition was paid as a part of the price ofpartner-hip in the hog??

The idea was too much, but on suingGraepel for the return of the money befound to his disgust that that was the im-pression Gra-pel had received.

Mrs. Hansen even appeared to testifythat the partnership was agreed to.

Another gentleman had caught her hearton the rebound.it may mentioned* andshe was married two days before cominginto court.

Her testimony would have been conclu-sive had not a witness appeared who provedthat Graepel had admitted the loan in apolice court, where he had been chargedwith some petty offense.

Justice of the Peace Cook was thereforeenabled to eive judgment and costs for theplaintiff, Sehroeder, who is going back toHonolulu by the first boat.

He is thinking of leaving his son to collectthe judgment down at the hog ranch, butSrtiroeder Jr. is afraid of meeting Mrs.Hansen and her withering glance as she re-calls her wooing by proxy.

A FAITHFUL WIFE.Lady Dilke Hat Never Doubted the Honor

of II*•r liutb.nil.Chica-o Herald.

There are several reasons why the nameof Lady Dilke attracts more or less atten-tion among women and men. For the lastthree or four years she and her husbandhave been living abroad In retirement, onaccount of the scandal in which Sir CharlesDilke was concerned several years ago; butnow that he has returned to England andhas been elected to Parliament this charm-ing woman is sure to be beard cf more fre-quently.

Lady Dilkeis said to be the original of

Dorothea Casaubon In "Middlemarch."Her first husband. Rev. Mark Pattison,was a great friend of George Eliot. Hemarried the present Lady Dilke when shewas scarcely more than a slip of a girl.They lived happily together for many yearsand on his deathbed the old clergyman toldher that if she should ever meet a man shecould fall genuinely in love withitwas biswish that she should marry him.

She had been a widow for several yearswhen she first met Sir Charles Dilke.

They became engaged and the marriagewas set for a year hence. Airs. Pattisonstarted on a tour through Egypt In themeantime. While she was there the newsof her lover's disgrace was brought to her.She returned to England immediately andin spite of the protests of her relatives andfriends she insisted upon being married onthe spot. She would hear no word againstSir Charles, and to this day she declare*that he is an innocent and greatly wrongedman. They wore married very quietly andstarted on a tour of Europe and Asia, whichlasted nearly two years.

Lady Dilke is an accomplished womanwho, besides being a recognized authorityon all art subjects, has written several ex-tremely clever books.

Her loving constancy and implicit faithinher husband's Innocence has done moreto turn the tide of public opinion in hisfavor than anything else iv the world couldhave done.
