OCEAN CITY SENTINEL. SUPPLEMENT. LETTY COLES.
"Ah, there you are in a perfect extrava- ganza of roses--blush, crimson, yellow, white--yourself the fairest." "Don't be ridiculous, Tony," laughs Miss Coles. But she adores her roses and is not offended at a very trite compliment, since Tony gets it off. "Are they not lovely?" she continues, picking a withered leaf from the flower just potted. "Now, I wonder if you can keep a secret, Letty Coles, a secret I have come all the way from Cupid's Towers to tell you. I am to be married--married, Letty Coles, and I want my congratulations first from your lips." "Married?" They are brave eyes she raises to his, and yet time was when Letty Coles expected him to ride over from Cu- pid's Towers through the beautiful golden fields with a different story for her ears. There is a moment of silence after that word, bur during that moment so much has died and fallen out of her life that it seems to her a small century has passed, and she wonders that Tony has not tired of standing there waiting for her to speak. But a moment is soon over, the dead soon buried, and drawing off the big dogskin gloves in which she always gardens she lays both hands frankly in his and speaks the words he is waiting to hear. "She is beautiful, Letty Coles, this dainty Perle de Jardins of mine, so beautiful! And Cupid's Towers is but a dreary place to which to bring her. You will come to see her often, will you not? You will brighten up the dull old life for her as nei- ther mother nor I can do? You will be a sister to her, Letty Coles?" So Letty Coles promises; so Letty Coles sees him ride away on Gray Eagle, the no- ble animal that has brought him to her so often while she stands idly at the garden gate, the cluster of Letty Coles roses burn- ing in her hands. Ah, very fair, very young is Tony's love, Letty Coles thinks, when she makes the miserable little first call on the bride that is expected of her. And frail! The girl's heart aches within her at the sight of the delicate creature, and by and by the old crones begin to shake their wise old heads and talk about "declines," and to ask each other if Vesta Tadlock's family is con- sumptive. It begins to be evident that she is slipping out of life away from Tony. "You must send her south," says Letty Coles one day. She has just been for a visit to the invalid, whom she has found free from pain, but terribly weak. "There is no hope," he answered wearily. "There is always hope--always, Tony, as long as God's gift of life remains," she says gently. "Send her to Florida. The climate must benefit her." "I cannot send her among strangers. Mother's nerves unfit her for nursing, and business complications will prevent me from leaving home for months. I must keep myself in a position to supply her with every comfort while she needs it, and my absence would be financial ruin just now." "Will you trust her to me, Tony?" lay- ing her hands tenderly on his head as a sister might. "See, I am strong--well. My nerves are like steel. Will you trust me to take your darling?" "Trust you? As I might an angel--a saint--anything unselfish and noble. But I have no right to ask such a sacrifice of you." "Never mind that. There ought to be no talk of sacrifice between us, Tony. Once--do you remember it?--you asked me to be to her a sister. You must let me fulfill that promise now, will you not?" And Tony, in his gratitude, thinks there is not a woman in the whole round world equal to this one, and even has his doubts of the saints and angels, to whom he has just alluded. So they go to Florida, Letty Coles and Vesta Tadlock. But not even Florida, with all its sun- shine and flowers and salubrious climate, speaks aught of hope or health to the lovely invalid, and Letty Coles fears that she has brought Tony's wife here to die. "Is there nothing to be done?" Letty Coles asks of the physician one day as they were talking out of earshot of the invalid, besides whom a stout, middle aged woman is sit- ting. "She needs new, healthful blood. It is just possible that it might with good effect be supplied to her from the veins of another person. There would be some difficulty in finding a suitable subject, I fear, and it is scarcely a hope." Letty Coles' big dark eyes rest for a mo- ment on his. They are very beautiful eyes, and although he is a zealous advocate of celibacy--though, as he has already taken immense care to inform Miss Coles, he is "wedded to his profession," his heart gives a sudden hammerlike throb, well conduct- ed organ that it is, for Dr. Estaver is human, after all, in spite of these antimarriage no- tions of his, and this bit of pathetic feminine beauty "does" him. "Transfusion? Yes, yes," eagerly, "we will try it." And so they do, and it is an artery in Letty Coles' own firm round arm that pours out its rich life for Tony's darling--Letty Coles, whose life has been spent in the open air, whose health is so gloriously perfect, who is ready to sacrifice everything for the sweet hope of giving the young wife back to her husband's arms. Exactly this does Miss Coles do, and marvelously glad she is to do it. Another June lies over the land. Letty Coles' rose garden is something worth a journey to see, all a riot as it is with loveli- ness. "Letty Coles! Letty Coles! Where are you, Letty Coles?" cries a deep voice through the sunshine. "Like Beauty's fa- ther, I am in search of a rose--Letty Coles." "The garden is before you. Choose as you will," says Letty Coles. Dr. Estaver smiles softly. The doctor is visiting Tony--ostensibly. He cannot re- sist this opportunity. "And what should I choose but my own Letty Coles--eh, Letty Coles?" Letty Coles blushes the color of her own fragrant namesakes, but she does not with- draw her hands. Tony is only a brother to her now. Her own brave heart has over- come the sweet, old love, but it is not for- gotten; it only deepens and strengthens the new. So they stand among the roses, the yel- low motes of sunshine dancing about them all in a glorious drift of rose petals, and in the steady, loving discharge of duty Letty Coles finds her happiness, her love, her fate.--Exchange. A Chronicle of History. The most northerly of newspapers is said to be the Nord Kap, published weekly in Ham- merfest, Norway, by Peter Johannsen, who lives and works in a little turf roofed house. The Nord Kap is regularly printed from news received from a ship which touches at Hammerfest but once in eight days. Sometimes the latest news arrives on the day of publication for the former hatch, and then "the latest" does not get into The Nord Kap till it has been known 14 days or more to the great world to the southward.--Youth's Companion.

Herbert Kelcey's First Engagement.
The Brighton theater in Brighton, Eng- land, saw in 1878 the first appearance of Herbert Kelcey on the stage. The play was a comedy called "Flirtation," and Mr. Kel- cey was cast for the part of Archie Terry. In the company were such prominent Eng- lish actors as Edward Richton, David Fish- er, Jr., W. S. Penley and Nelson Wheat- croft. "I can't just remember the first lines," said Mr. Kelcey, "and a week be- fore I made my first appearance I had no idea of adopting the state as a profession. A friend procured the engagement for me, and I took it, hardly realizing that I was taking a decisive step in my life. As to my impressions, I was not nearly as nervous then as I am on a first night now. You see, the responsibility was not as great. For a year after my first appearance, acting un- der the advice of Mr. Richton, I traveled through the provinces with companies who changed their bill nightly. It was an ex- cellent school, although we often played to houses of 16 shillings. At the end of that year I took my first London engagement." --Exchange.
Wealthy People Wear Old Clothes.
It seems that the Bradley Martins are just like the rest of us. They go to Europe, enjoy themselves and come back with 128 trunks of old and undutiable clothes. The only apparent difference between very wealthy and moderately poor people is in the number of trunks. The amount of dressing required to exhaust 128 trunks of clothing can be appreciated only by those who know the importance of frequent and lightning changes. It is a little mean to pry into the private affairs of the Bradley Martins and to rummage over their old clothing, but the government is inexorable. As it is a contest of principle, it is gratify- ing to see that these worthy people are not above old clothes and plenty of them.--New York World.
The Salary of a Dancer.
The Parisian career of La Fuller, as the French bill boards introduce her, is an in- teresting study in comparative values. While the litterateurs and the scholars re- ceive an average salary of $3,000 or at best $4,000 a year for their intellectual service in the world of letters, the light footed Lois is paid rather more than $2,500 a month in the Folies-Bergeres alone, and has a three years' contract for 12 months in the year.--Exchange.
An "Istrorary" Sight. Hilbernior Loquitur--if ye remember the two pike Kenneth had in his aquarium now--the big one and the little one? Well, I went one morning with m' first pipe on me to have a look at 'm, and (be anything!) if one of 'um wasn't after swallowing the other! And the most istrorary part of it 'twas the small fellow was outside. The hearing of this fish tale lies in the application on it.--London Saturday Re- view.
MR. ASTOR'S ENGLISH ESTATE. An Exquisite Sylvan Retreat of a Loveli- ness Unrivaled In England. There is no part of the Thames from Lon- don to Reading better known or more fa- mous for sylvan charm than those over- hanging woods which fringe the steep river bank near Maidenhead, and which belong to the estate of Cliveden--or, as it is some- times spelled, Cliefden. Few spots are more familiar to the boating man, who ranks it above all other beauties of the Thames, the quarry woods at Marlow and the plantations at Nuncham forming with it a trio of characteristics riverain scenes. Looked at from a little distance--from the Formosa islands bank, for instance--the Cliveden woods appear to form a dense mass of foliage, but in reality there are numerous gaps, formed either by the wind- ing pathways or by exposed tracts of chalk. Magnificent yew trees hang from the cliffs with their twisted roots exposed to the air. There are luxuriant wreaths of wild clematis suspended from the tops of the trees, while all kinds of flowering plants grow plentifully in the shade. The lofti- ness of the ridge opposite to the Berkshire side, which is geographically a continuation of Hedsor park, gives every advantage to the hanging woods of Cliveden, bringing them effectually into contrast with the sur- rounding level land through which the Thames in its subsequent course has for many miles to run. Whether we see them in summer or in autumn, the exquisite va- riety of tints in the trees forms a picture of forest loveliness which is probably unri- valed in England.
The history of the estate begins with George Villiers, duke of Buckingham, the favorite of Charles II. It was here that he fled in company with the Countess of Shrewsbury, who held his horse, disguised as a page, while he killed her husband in a duel. The Duchess of Buckingham--so Pepys tells us--objected to the presence of the inconstant lady, saying it was not for her and the other to live together in a house. Whereto George Villiers answered, "Madame, I did think so and therefore have ordered your coach to be ready to carry you to your father's." Then the scene changes to the times of Frederick, prince of Wales and father of George III, who resided here for a short period and listened to the fa- mous national air, "Rule, Brittania," which, composed by Dr. Arne, was per- formed before him for the first time on Aug. 1, 1740. In 1795 the original edifice was burned to the ground, and in 1830 it was rebuilt by Sir G. Warrender.
A second conflagration awaited it after it had been transferred to the Duke of Suth- erland, when it was once more rebuilt from designs by Barry in 1849. The house itself, which passed a short time ago into the hands of the Duke of Westminster, is not in any sense picturesque. It is a great and heavy mass of masonry, the center being a revival of Inigo Jones' design for old Som- erset House. But the grounds have been brought to a rare pitch of perfection, and the views from the terrace, especially that which looks toward Windsor castle, com- mand a beautiful expanse of varied Eng- lish landscape.--London Telegraph.
Broken, but Still Game. Uneasily they walked along Fifth avenue. They had just emerged from the Holland House and turned into Thirty-sixth street. They had been to the races, lost heavily and felt blue. They knew that the antithesis of blue was red, so they looked on the cup which was red and took away their blue- ness. It also warmed them a little, un- steadied their gait a little more and dazed them considerably. They were commenting on the disasters which overtook their favorites that day on the track. One of them happened to glance up at a house they were passing, on which he saw something which puzzled him, for he said: "Wait er minute. Whaz zat?" The other look up at the house and saw a doctor's sign, thus: DR. JONES. 9 to 1. And underneath it another, which said simply: DR. BROWN. Without waiting for his friend to answer him the first man laboriously climbed the steps of the stoop and rang the bell--not once, but in the way that the comic papers usually picture intoxicated people as ring- ing bells. A startled darky made his ap- pearance at the door to be further startled with the query: "Shay, m'fren, wasser odds on Brown?" This was a particularly bright darky, but it took him some time to comprehend what the fellow meant. Then he tenderly helped him down the stoop, assuring him that the odds were even, but that he had better go home and take a nap.--New York Herald.
The Last of Her Tribe.
Old Jennie, the last representative of the famous Rogue river Indians now living in this country and quite advanced in years, is making a burial robe after the custom of her tribe in which to be laid away when the summons shall come and she shall pass to the happy hunting grounds, where the white man is not and firewater is unknown. The groundwork is of fine buckskin and is superbly decorated with the various kinds of money used by the tribe for generations past and richly ornamented in a pleasing and skillful manner with jewels, pebbles, beads and other valuables used and ad- mired by the tribe in the past. The robe when completed will weigh fully 50 pounds, and as a relic or reminder of the peculiar customs and practices of a nation of people now practically blotted from existence is most valuable and should be preserved.
With this commendable purpose in view Mrs. Rowena Nichols, who has been em- ployed by the World's fair committee to paint the Table rocks, has procured a num- ber of sketches of this interesting sub- ject and will paint a life size picture of old Jennie wrapped in her gorgeous cerements, and thus happily preserve a sacred custom about to pass forever into oblivion. Old Jennie was born and raised at the foot of Table rocks and during the wars was once captured by the whites and later rescued by her people.--Jackson (Fla.) Union.
Reversible Plush.
Commencement has been made in Eng- land within a comparatively recent period upon the manufacture of what is regarded as an important new fabric--an inexpensive weft pile plush, with either single pile or pile on both sides. A reversible pile plush has in times past een made by the factories of Germany with hand looms at the rate of some six yards to the loom per week, but by means of the newly contrived apparatus, which has been devised by a
Bradford manufacturer and can be fixed in ordinary dress and coating looms, it is said to operate at seven times the speed of the
German hand looms and to make goods of equal quality at a less price. The new goods have a weft pile, and consequently a very much cheaper yarn can be used.--New York Sun.
