HONEYMOON HALL.
&
The sun strikes hot at Kurrauliou.
iuBcindu.
Kurraclieo is built upon the sand,
and sand is a terriblo spoilsport.
With no pig sticking, no shooting and
no cricket except on sand puddled Into
asphalt, the chief amusemonts of the
British warrior are brandy and soda
and flirtation.
Kurrachee is the iovemakingest
station in all the glowing east, and
the lovomaklng is of the sort that
ends in surplices and white favors—
not of malice aforethought on the
part of the mon, but because thero is
no help for them. There is sand all
■round and they cannot run.
The woryTnothor of marriageable
“spins" know this, and regards ICur-
rochod with tho calm content of a
huntsman, who has got all his earths
nicely stopped.
Thus It was that a great want
come to be felt at Kurrachee in
Beiude. There wus no place to spend
tho honeymoon in. In that great
sandy plain, tho acquisition of which
cost England oceans of blood, ami
ouo awful pun—grim old Cliarlio Nu-
pior's “Poccavi"—tliore wus not un
oasis big ouougli to accommodate tho
smallest pair of love birds that over
billod in a cage.
At length the grumbles of rupidly
mating oouplos grow so loud and long
that they reached the eurs of one Cow
asjpe Readymoney Bottlewallah—an
astute Pnrsoo financier with an eyo
, to the main chanco.
Cowasjeo set about rectifying mat
ters in a truly commercial spirit.
Ho selected a Bite five miles out in
tho desort, wrestod it from its lawful
owners, tho jackals, and there budd
ed and furnished a largo bungalow,
which he dubbed Honeymoon Hall.
Prom that day to this Houoymoon
Hall has lived up to its nomenclature,
and Cowasjeo Beadymouoy Bottle-
wallah's rupee bags have grown ple
thoric.
Of all the officers in her majesty's
Two Hundredth Foot who arrived at.
Kurrachee in a state of single bless
edness, only two remainod who had
not passed through a period of re
tirement at Honeymoon Hall.
' Colonel Spriggins and Charlie Han
cock remained as yet uncaptured-
sulitary monuments to the once in
vincible bachelorhood of the regi
ment.
Tho ohief was a confirmed woman
hater and never gavo the ladies a
chance, while the gay lieutenant was
such an arrant flirt that tl>e most
strategic mamma could not lay him
J>y tho heels.
The colonel and Hancock sat in
the veranda of tho moss bungalow.
It was tho day before tho regimental
hall, and tho two were discussing ar
rangements.
“Look hero,” growled the colonel'
at lust. "I hopo to goodness, Hon-
cook, you won’t go and got floored
tomorrow night. I must liavuouc
unmarried man in the regiment be
sides inysolf for common decency’s
sake."
“Right you ore, colonel,” laughed
Charlie; “uevor fear forme. We’ll
be the last of the Mohicans together
—but I mean to have my bit of fuu
tomorrow all the some.”
“There's that Miss What’s-lier-
nume—Bella Beamish, Isn't it?—she's
got her knife into you tight. She'll
bud you as Bure as fato if you ain't
•pry.”
“She is u dear little thing,” said
Hancock, "but her mother’s a ter
ror.” „
The chief dived into his peg glass.
When he caino out again he an
swered orooularly, “It’s my private
•pinion, Charlie, that the widow is
|pst os busy on her own account os
on her daughter's.”
• ♦ ♦ * * *
Hidden in the maze of imported
greenery the string band of the Two
Hundredth was reeling out waltz
after waits. The ossombly rooms
wore full to overflowing.
Behind a group of palms in one of
tho recesses a pair of tired dancers
.were sitting out. If they wore not
tired they ought to hnve been, for
out of the eleven times on the pro
gramme that had been negotiated,
-thoy had danced nine—together.
There was nu air of proprietorship
■■ about the lady and of suppressed ex-
- citoment about thegeutlemnn, which
would have agitated the colonel hod
'.he seen them.
“Well, that’s all settled, then,"
said he. “I’ll tell the padre to be
weady at the church at 8 on Monday
morning, arid we’ll get it done Btrict-
ly on the quiet. I should never have
•ho face to break it to old Surieeins
utter ine way rve voweu never
to"—-
“But, you silly Charlie,” interrupt
ed Miss Beamish, “tho colonel is
bound Xpikridw .all nborit it long lie-
' fore we come back to the lings. Be
sides. you’ll have to get leave.”
-Oh. lit tell the old Iwv I'm going
DAY, MAY 14, 1892.
“And what am I to do about poor
mamma wi.li all this secrecy? lent
she to knm” about it till afterward?"
"Certain..- not. She won't' mind;
I'm very sure of that And, Bella,
dearest, that gives me a chance to
suy something. I've always hod a
horror of mothers-in-law. I shall be
glad to do the civil to Mrs. Beamish,
hut I can't consent to live with her,
you know—not for a single day. A
mother-in-law under the same roof is
the—I mean she’s a 'dinner of herbe
to a stalled ox,’ or something of that
sort, as somebody says.”
"Charlie, I believe that cantanker
ous old colonel has made you as bad
as himself; but I suppose I must be
dutiful and give in. And. Charlie I”
"Yes, dearest.”
*♦♦,•♦*
The Lionel's rubber was finished.
Had it not been for sundry tremors
on his favorite sub’s bebulf, the chief
would have been in a tolerably com-
placont frame of mind.
“By tho god of war ho's dancing
with her still," ejaculated tho colonel
from the doorway, “and ho was
dancing with her two hours ago. I
must get arouml and road the mu
tiny act before it’s too late.”
The irate warrior bucked into the
corridor with the intention of mak
ing a detour, and so getting to the
other end of tho ballroom without
having to trnvorso it.
But as Spriggins dissappoared from
tho doorwny to start on bis round, a
indy rose from among tho cliuporonn
at tho other end of tho room and
slipped out of tho door nearest to her
—the one for which the colonel was
mailing.
Thus it was that I10 espied a fe
male form, no longer young, but not
without pretonsibns, advancing to
meet him along tho corridor.
“Oil, Colonel Spriggins." said the
lady, ns tlioy met, "do show me
which is the cloakroom. I've lost
my linnkereliiof and want to get an
otlior out of my handbag.”
The colonel grunted something un
intelligible and opened Hie door of
one of the moms on tho opposite side
of tho passage. Here was a vust
array of feminine wraps neatly tick
eted, a few stray powder puffs be
fore a cheval glass and a tray full of
pins. But the attendant told off to
keep track of the finery was not
there.
“Oh, never mind, colonel," replied
his companion politely. “You’ll do
just as well. Come, let's have a regu
lar good hunt togother."
The wretched man turned to flee
In search of the attendant—too late.
The door of the cloakroom shut to
with a dick; tho lock was shut from
the outside, and tho great financier,
Cowusjoe Readymoney Bottlewallah,
shambled off dowu the corridor.
“By the lord of lire," murmured
the Parsoe to himsolf, “the colonel
is weak and the Meinsahib is very
strong. In a quarter of on hour die
will propdso marriage to him. Ten
ants have been scarce of late and
business must bo attended to.”
*♦***.
Cownsjoe Readymoney Bottlewal
lah Bat in his go-down surrounded
by bales of “Europe" goods. To him
entered n Hindoo Knltmutghar—
Ramnsawtny Bux by name—a per-
Bonago with white garmonts and n
shifty eye.
After greetings, duly exchanged,
the body servant, being biddon, seat
ed himsolf on 11 heap of carpets and
took up his parable:
“Ramasawmy Bux is commanded
by him whom it is his privilege to
serve—Hancock Sahib of Pultun Two
Hundred—to seek the Mountain of
Commerce, Cowasjeo, and to make
business with him of importance.
Tho sahib is about to take to wife—
whisper it not in tliy bazaar, O Cow
asjeo, for it is as secret ns thy Towors
of Sileuce--he is about to take to wife
a beautiful Missee sahib, tho daugh
ter of tho Momsuhib Beamish. He
would fnin hire of thee for the
month of sweetness tho bungalow
in the desert known as Honeymoon.”
Cowusjoe Readymoney Bottlewol-
lah's mild brown orbs twinkled.
“Ho, liol" he laughed, “so Han
cock sahib has yiolded to bright eyes
lit lost. It is good, hut thy master
comes too late to ask for Honeymoon
Hall. It was let only yesterday for
a mouth from Monday next to an
other sahib, whoso illustrious name
I am not at liberty to mention. But,
as you know, O Ramasawmy, I have
much sympathy for those whom the
moon goddess lias struck silly. Think
you that your master-would be hap
py with the half of Honeymoon
HallC
“Tliy servuut believes that the
sahib would bo happy anywhere.”
"Well, then,” said Cowasjee, “go
to him and say that Honey moon Hall
is at his disposal, and bring mo back
a month's reut—XOO rupees—in ad
vance, of which sum ten rupees shall
oe tnmeOwn uustoor, o Kamasaw
my. Then when the sahib reaches
tho bungalow in the desert say to
him that tin* half of Honeymoon Hall
lias been let to another party. The
moon goddess will have made him so
silly that he will forget in his blise:
that b,c lias paid for the whole!"
♦ * * * * *
“Aud how did you mUnago the
colonel, Charlie?" asked tho liuly.
“Whut did lie say to youv application
for leave ("
“Took, it like 11 lamb. I can't think
what's tip with old fv’.'iggips the I.:?,:
“Horrid old boar! I wonder if he
knows anything yet?" replied tho late
lliss Beamish.
“If he doesn't, ho's not likely to
know for some weeks," sold Han
cock'. “Ho's going away for a mouth's
leave himsolf this morning, he told
me." ,
“How I'm married 1 mean to re
taliate by cutting that dreadful old
colonel. He did his best to prevent
the match, Charlie."
“Oh. you mustn't be hard on poor
old Spriggins; but here we are.”
Honeymoon Hall is a great ram
bling one Btoried bungalow, with the
Usual veranda running all around it.
Ramasawmy Bux stood on the veran
da to welcome his master and mis
tress. ,
As the eyes of the mild Hindoo fell
upon the unruffled visage of tho
bridegroom his heart was smitten
with a great fear. Ramasawmy was
not a coreligionist of Cowasjeo
Readymoney Bottlewallah, aud his
faith in the (towers of the moon god
dess to strike his master silly had all
along been baiting.
Tho sahib would be savage when
he was informed that he was only a
part tenant of Houoymoon Hall, and
that another pair of occupants were
to arrive lator in the day.
Now, when n Hindoo lies to savo
his bacon lio lies without thought of
ulterior consequences. Immediate
immunity from the sahib’s toecaps
is what ho puts before him as the
one and only goal. Ramosawmy’s
lie, promoted, vice tho moon goddess
superseded for absence without
leave, took t6 itself, like an older
practitioner, tho form of a ebt-pent.
With hands raised to forehead and
stooping in deep unlearn the kbit-
mutgliar approached tho carnage
and addressed Hancock, not in tli#
vernacular in which ho had con
versed with Cowasjeo, but in tho
English of the bazaars.
“Sahib, it is my sadness to tell mas
ter a misfortune considerably large.
Master and meinsoliib must keep
this side tho house. Other side great
tremendous cpbra loose, in. the floor,
with his wiffi and whole heap of lit-
tlo cobras. Floor very rotten, and
they pop in and out like thingumbob.
This side, floor all right.”
"All right, Ramasawmy,” replied
Hancock carelessly.
By tiffin time tho bride and bride
groom had settled down into their
new quarters, and had explored that
port of Houoymdon Hall which Ram-
osawmy's fiction hod reserved to
them.
After the meal Charlie began to
cast about for something to do, and
bethought him of the cobra.
“Look here, BeUissima," said he,
“let's go and have some fun with
those snakes. The reptiles date on
music, and I’ve brought my banjo
and a key bugle. We’U have a pri
vate snake charming seance ih the
Hindoo style, and fetch ’em out of
their hoLs ”
The instruments were brought,
and the happy pair stole along the
veranda around the corner of the
bungalow toward tho snake infested
rooms. Outside a window thnt was
veiled with a cuss-cuss tatty the am
ateur snake charmer paused.
“This room will do,” said Hancock;
“we’ll start the music llrst, and then
peep through the blind and see-if
thoro are any results."
Tho brido twanged the banjo, the
bridegroom put his soul into the bu
glo, nud botwoen them they raised
such a din that the jackals afar off in
their dons must have imagined that
a rival tribe of their own species hod
taken possession of Honeymoon
Hall.
But not for long. In another mo
ment silence—grim, awful, terriblo
silence—reigned over those desert
solitudes.
For tho cuss-cuss tatty was torn
aside, and there, astounded and
speechless, stood tho misogamist
Spriggins and Bella’s mamma.
The two parties glared at each
other without a word. Then tho
tatty was dropped.
“By jove, it’s a duplicate job," wa :
the chief snake charmer's sole re
mark, as ho led his partner back to
review tho position.
***** *
Colonel and Mrs. Spriggins returned
to Kurrachee fully three weeks bo
fore Lieutenant and Mrs. Hancock,
preferring, it is supposed, the con
gratulations of tho cantonment to
the state of society which prevailed
at Honeymoon Hall.
The only extant explanation of the
speedy departure of the elder tenants
is to be found in a remark which the
lieutenant afterword addressed to
Mr. Cowasjee Readymoney Bottle-
wallali:
“No, you old scoundrel, I shan't
sue you for tho balance of the rent.
I took it out of the colonel."—Boston

Dead Bodies In Lake Superior. .

THEATRICAL NUISANCES.
Bat M Tk.r. I. If. W»y of
Tbem They Mutt It. Endnnd.
Tho highly reprehensible hablt'of
cuming into the theater after the
curtain is up and disturbing the en
tire audience Ip getting properly
seated is growing in New York.
This is bad. The other and more
flagrant violation of individual rights
—getting up and hustling for the
doors before the curtain goes down
on the lust tableau—is also growing.
This is worse. ^ •
There may be and very often are
sufficient reasons for some people
being late. I can't help but think,-
however, if there were stringent
rules enforced prohibiting any one
going or being shown to a seat while
the curtain is up there would be a
great falling off of this nightly nui
sance. The discretion of ushers,
properly exercised, is often com
mendable, but a well known rule
enforced by the police, if necessory,
would work advantageously all
around, for those who come late
would know before hand thnt they
must stand until the close of the first
act.
As for the person who begins to
shuffle into his or her wraps during
the most tolling lines of the piece
and noisily bolts for the exits in the
middle of the grand denouement,
nothing but a club seems adequate.
This because the annoyance is so
great and because there is no reason
able excuse for it. I have seen men
and women who have the outward
appearance of gentlemen and ladies
get up thus and stampede as if there
were a fire, and have found them
loafing in the lobby until the lights
were turned out on them.
Tho desire to get out first is ap
parently one of those curious freaks
of human nature that impels men to
jump from the moving tram and off
tho ferryboat bofore it gets to the
dock, and women to nm across tracks
in front of the horse cars—not lie-
cause tlioy are in any special hurry,
but merely to "get there, Eli."
Tho effect upon the great majority
of playgoers is to spoil their full ap
preciation if not destroy their under
standing of the piece. This matter
is so palpably outside the bounds of
good sense and the most ordinary
exercise of the reasoning faculties
that a remedy is not to be readily
suggested. Nothing short of a Bovt-
ery “bouncer" posted in each aide
with a dub would seem to reach the
case.—New York Herald.
Bitd Temper Under Water.
One of the strange effects that div
ing has upon those who practice it is
the invariable bod temper felt While
working at the bottom; and os this
irritability passes away as soon os the
surface is reached again, it is only
by the unusual pressure of air inside
the dress affecting probably thb
lungs, and through them the brain.
My experience has been that while
below one may fly into the most vio
lent passion at the merest trifle; for
instance, the life lino held too tight
or too slack, too muoh air or too lit
tle, or some imaginary wrongdoing
on the part of tho tender or the boys
above, will often cause the temper
to rise.
1 have sometimes become so angry
in a similar way that I have given
the signal to pull up, with the ex
press intention of knocking the heads
off tho entire crew; but as the sur
face was neared and the weight of
air decreased, my feelings havo grad
ually undergone a change for the bet
ter, until by the time I reached the
ladder and had tho face glass un
screwed I had forgotten for wlint I
came up.—H. P. Whitmarsh in Cen
tury.
He Had Some Feeling.
One Billie, a ten-year-old not 1,000
miles from Detroit, is about the
worst youngster on record, and,
strange to say, his fond mother
doesn't seem to know it half as well
os the neighbors do. Not long ago
she opened out on a man who spoke
liis mind very freely to William.
"Did you tell my son to go to the
bad place?” she aslccd, with a flash
in her oye.
“No, ma’am, I didn't," was the
prompt contradiction.
“Did you say he would go there
some time?" she continued.
“No, ma’am, I didn’t,” and the
man became hot. ‘ ‘I suppose he told
you I did, but it isn’t true. I haven’t
much respect for the bad place,
ma'am, nor never hod, but I've got
enough sympathy for it not to wish
it any such bad luck os that.”
Then he got around the comer
quick.—Detroit Free Press.
An Argument Against Ether.
When anaesthetics were first dis
covered it was urged by those who
had learned to admire the dexterity
of surgical art that the day.' of that
art were doomed, that surgeons
would become mere “puddlers,” and
that a false sentiment and fear about
pain and the infliction of pain would
take from tlu4 Eseulapiau fraternity
the boldest and manliest qualities.

now be bom.—Dr. Richardson in
