DAILY ENQUIRER * SUN: OOLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SUNDAY MORNING OCTOBER 18, 1887. MRS or TIB WEDDING «OWR. A wonun Is bosy mid seven, And wearily wean a frown, fo, her tired brain plans the devices That are wrought in a wedding gown. Ohe heeds not the hum of their voices, Her thoughts upon work ate bent, Fora warns i whose mission is labor Mast with lab >r b ■ ever content; And to sew, hern and loon and to stitch Are the hard needs that keep her down To the sosot. sorry pittance earned For her toil on a wedding gown. Her delicate form bends low O’er a fabric rich and white, For a queenly woman pledged To a man whose wealth is might; And both with a predict! cost Would astound the gaping town, And spare na ight, even woman's toll On this dainty wedding gown. Ho ply fast the nimble needle. Falter not, poor soul, for rest; In another world are better gowns. Nay, and crowns for the opprest. But hers you may no* aquauder The houre that are not your own, And 1 t eye nor finger drop A stain on the weddiog gown. For a tear from a sewer’s lid Is an Oman that It will trace ft’s later path in the days to oome On across the wearer's face. Vet why not, asthrongh reads a streamlet Steals sebblng and winding down, May your tears In quiet wander Through lashes beside your own! Hem on with yonr heart-strings still,' Smile, ennob ed by patient trust— ■Are women but feathers and satins Ends Ufa at a hillock of dust? Dear sonl, need and pain are the hands For the whitest to him who looks downl l On her who shall be at his ooming In a beautiful wedding gown. — N. O. rimee-Demscrat. ADA ADAIR. One glorious morning in midsummer two ladies were sitting in rustle lounging ehalre upon the wide veranda of the Hen- lock Inn. The younger, a fair maid with dark blue eyes and a wealth of golden hair, gazed dreamily oat upon the charming view, little lake amid the pine-clad Adirondack hills, calm and still in a glare of August snnahine. The elder lady held an open newspaper an her hand, and had jost read in it this notice, mystioal to the uninitiated: OoMirr Theatre Call, Season 1888-8. The ladles and gentlemen of the compa ny will assemble in the green-room, Mon day, August 80, at 10 :a. m., for first re hearsal. Season opens September A Mr. George Garrick, Manager. She realized sadly' that the time had --come when they must bid farewell to this quaint mountain village, and go back to the toil and striving of the city. After the blissful dalliance of a holiday it is not pleasant to think ot returning to the bur den and worry of commonplace labor. But thie was but a passing regret; there was a more serious cause for disquietude at this wudden summons. "Mother,” suddenly said the girl, "I will tell Arthur to-day the true story of .my life. I have done wrong in not telling Ihlm long ago.” Her mother’s face brightened. "It will be best to do so,” she replied. "I am con fident that it will make no difference in his feeling toward you, while should some accident disclose tbut you are 'on the stage,’ the discovery that you have de ceived him may make a serious breach be tween you.” "Then, dear, I will tell him as soon as he comes. I expect him to call every mo ment.” “Indeed,you cannot deferit any longer,” rejoined her mother; "rehearsal on the 10th, only a week ahead.” At this instant a cheery voice exclaimed, -‘Good morning, ladies!’’ and Arthur Mar vin stepped upon the balcony. The blush that came into the young girl’s cheeks told clearly that the Bov. Arthur Marvin was the "be” of the preceding conversa tion. He had come to Hcmlockvillve two years before in an endeavor to repair by a long reBt the ravages close and assiduous -application to hiB studies had wrought in his constitution. Being successful in his -quest for health, aud finding, too, that the word he taught fell upon willing ears, he had permanently settled in the village as rector of the Episcopal churoh. Until the advent ot this maid into bis life he had beeu indifferent to the city and country belles alike, but from the moment he first beheld her he felt that there was a woman he could love. Throughout the happy months of her ▼aoation, as they drove along the shady roads, rowed over the lake or strolled on the picturesque paths that bordered it, they told agaia the old, old story that is forever new, the romance of lhe liking of young hearts. Mrs. Vaughan was the widow of an act or, and Penelope, her daughter, was an actress at the Comet Theater, "the home of burlesque,” where she was known as Miss Ada Adair. None of the boarders in the Hemlock Inn were aware of this; nor did Arthur know it. As we have seen Penelope had determined to tell him at the first opportunity. Arthur had only time to say a few words about the concert that was to take place that evening, und then he was obliged to leave them- Penelope was forced to await another occasion to disclose her secret. The guests of the Hemlock Inn had hired the village hall that night, and had announced a “grand vocal and instrument al concert” for the benefit ol Mr. Marvin’s churoh. Penelope, who never sang in the hotel parlors, as other ladies did, had sur prised the managers by ofleritig to sing a salo. When her turn came to appear before the crowded audience she walked quietly out upon the smalt stage and sang the souliul words of "London Bridge.” She felt in strange accord with its weird re frain. Storm and sunshine, peace and strife, Over the bridge they xo; Flouting on the tide of life, Whither no man shall know. Wh . will miss them there to-n orrow? Waifs that drift to the shade or sun! Gone away, with their songs and sorrow! Only the river still (lows on, Hurry alotig, sorrow and song, All is vanity'neatli (he sod. Velvet and rags, so the world wags, Un-.il the river no more shall run. Her song aroused the audience to the highest pitch of enthusiasm; they were enraptured hy the charm and passion oi her rich, full voice. A storm of applaus. burst forth when she bad finished, and Ada Adair ban singing under a strange uarnel” So musing, be lit a cigar, strode the hall, and set foitn on a ramble through the vil lose. This soon grew tiresome. He yawned and stood fora moment undecided whelh er to go on or not. A sign opposite ut traded his attention—“The Adirondack Eagle ” He crossed the road and looked through the window. The interior was lii up and some one was visible writing at n desk. "1 wonder wbat keeps my colleague o! the pen up o’ nights,” thought the youmj stranger, as he entered the office, aud walked leisurely up to its occupant. “How are yon?” said he; "I am Will Dover, of the New York Arbiter. TuougUt I’d call to see how your noble bird is flour ishing. The person writing was a sandy-haired, freckled faced country boy He looked upon Dover’s arrival as ptevidential. “I’m glad to see you!” said lie, heartily. I’m Mr. Jones, an’ I'm left here to get oat the paper all alone. The editor is down with the rheumatics, and the comp, has started off on a tramp. The page is short ’bout three sticks. Bay, mister, will you write something to put in there? I’ve bin trvin’ for three hours, an’ I can’t but I kin set it up.” Dover consented so pleasantly that the ink stained face of his petitioner beamed with smiles. He quickly wrote a report of some concert, bestowing lavish praise upon all that took part in It. Of Penelope Vaughan ho wrote: "Those who have only heard her singing inane, topical songs, or other ‘burlesque^ditties\ on not realize the depth of feeling she displayed in the simple Englsh soug. For her own sake, we advise her to give up link tights, and devote her talents to a tig her grade of performances.” "B'guin, I’m obliged to yer,” Bald the faithful neophyte as Will, finished. "I’ll get the form on the press to-night, an' I kick off the hull edition hy breakfast time.” Will. Dover walked slowly back to the hotel, elated by the consciousness that he nad none a good deed. Many of the concert organizers were as sembled upon the porch of the Hemlock Inn on the following morning, when Pill Jones appeared, yelling in finished news boy style: “Here’s yer Eaglet Full ac count of tbe grand concert”’ Never did journalistic enterprise meet with a quicker return. Bill’s stock was soon sold out, and he hurried back to the office for a new supply. The reading of the report created a sen sation. "Penelope Vaughan, a burlesqi artist! Scandaloun!” exclaimed the lartb A chorus of "I told you so” arose. The guests gathered in a large circle and all talked at once. Penelope, the unconscious cause of all this perturbation, was sitting within a lit tle boat house upon the shore ot the lake. At tTequent intervals she glanced along tbe road, for although she would not have confessed it, she waited for the Rev. Ar thur Marvin. Presently she saw him advancing rapid ly toward the hotel. His appearance alarmed hor; he walked fast, ana at times shook a stout cane violently in the air with fierce gesticulations. As he came nearer she saw he was in a violent rage. Beside him ran Bill Jones, the printer’s boy. Arthur stopped before the veranda. “Is Mr. William Dover here?” he de manded. From where she sat within the boat house Penelope could hear plainly all that was said. The ladies were eager to know what he thought of the astounding information that had burst upon them that morning, so they ignored his question, and one of them said sweetly: “We did not know we were to be honored by professional assist ance last eveniDg, Mr. Marvin.” Arthur hit the ground savagely with his cane. “I have seen the statement in the village paper that Miss Vaughan is an ac tress,” Baid he. “I brand it as a base cal- | umny. I assure you it is untrue, a lying j story. This boy tells me it is the lahri- cation of a young man stopping here. Is | he present?” No one responded to his demand. Do- , ver, indeed, had left in search of gayer ; scenes on an early train. Arthur had caught a glimpse of a well I known face near the window of the boat house, and he passed on toward it. With his words still ringing in her ears— ; words that proved his faith in her—she felt a sickening shame as he came near. She dreaded the interview; how hard her 1 story seemed to tell now. As he entered he was startled at the E alencss in her faoe, the pained look in er eyes. “Penelope,” he Baid, tenderly, "do not grieve so. ’Tie but a silly lie, after all, not a serious matter”— “Arthur,” she interrupted, her voice sounding harsh and strange, “Arthur, the story is true. I am an actress. The Hrt I follow I learned with my mother’s help; it is our only support. I have nothing else to confess, nothing else to conceal.” She paused, and then said slowly, “Ar thur, I have deceived you. I should have told you long ago. Will you forgive me! ’ “Darling,” said he, "you stand upon the porting of two rosidB, between which you must choose. One leads to the old life,the other whither? Shall we tread together the new path? I believe in you—love you. The soul within your eyes tells you are good and true. The past is gone; will you let me make your future?” No need to question what her answer waB. Still, lor fear some captious doubter might not be content, I reprint a telegram that flashed over the wires that day to New York.
