The Lost Umbrella.

I'll wager tho best box of cigars in the city." Dono."

Thin short dialogue took place between two young men

they rushed breath

lessly down two flights of stairs, and seizing hat« and umbrellas, issued from tho door of a fashionable boarding- house

That evening a young lady entered the dining-room of one of these aristocratic houses, and on being chided for lateness rejoined, pettishly: "I couldn't help it, mamma. I've been so unfortunate to-day. 1 declare 1 could cry!"

VVhv, bow? What do you mean?" In the first place, I leit my purse on my toilotte-tablo, I was in such a liurrv to catch that cur. 1 stutred tho bank check into my glove for safety. I went to the bunk and got it cashod—lil'ty dollars, you know—and it occurred to mo the money wouldn't be safo in my cloak packet, so I unscrewed the top of the nandle of my umbrella and put the bills in that hollow within the broad part. Thou I w«nt to the photographer's and got my proolb, and, for want of a tyetter place, I looiishiy put those in the hollow too. Well it rained in torrents, and two voung gentlemen were following me. You needn't look shocked, mamma— they wore, though thoy did it very unobstrusivelv. I've seen both of them before, and I beliovc thoy room opposite. At any rate, they got on the car thai I'did, this noon, and they got on tho one 1 came home in. One of thorn sat next to me, and the other near the door u.n tho opposite side, and if 1 turnoil my eyes auy where but straight forward, 1 was sure to receive a glance of admiration."

We'll dispense with that part of it, Mary." No, wo can't, mamma," was the demure response, "for my confusion, and tho fact of my umbrella's dripping over my dress, caused tho catastrophe. I had to set tho umbrella aside a littlo, yofl pee, and when I got up to leave the car, both those young men rushed for the door. It was really comical, mamma. 1 was no sooner outside tho car when two umbrellas met over my head, and there stood two voting gentlemen, both quite determined to escort ino to the house door. I never wanted to laugh so much but I didn't laugh. 1 thanked them with a very dignified bow—one apiece— and then producing my own umbrella from tlie folds of my water-proof, opened that, and walked off. Mamma," continued tho speaker, tragically, "1 never will liavo another umbrella tnat is like overy 0.110 else's."

I don see at all what you are coming to, Mary," said her mother, perplexedly. "What was the trouble?" "Trouble? Why, mamma, when I got homo I found 1 hadn't my own umbrella at all, but soiuo one oise's just like mine!"

And tho liny dollars and photograph prools Were gone."

Why, you careless girl! How could you have done such a thing?" "It is the greatest shame In tho world that umbrellas are made so much alike," wa* the vexed response.

Is tho one you have jttsl like yours?" Precisely *black alpaca with an ivory handle." 'Somebody must havo stolen yours, or, rather, exchanged purposely."

I don think it, mamma in fact, know they couldu't. No ono could have known what was in tho handle of mine and tho ouo I brought home is much snrucer. I'm sure the person who tooK mine would nover think of looking in ill handle."

Perhaps not." Jim, mamma, I want the fifty dollars elso how can I hare that light silk dress?"

I daro soy yott dd, but you can't have it just now." Hut 1 must." And the speaker eoaxingly put her hand on her mother's arm.

Nonsense. Advertise Vour umbrella. Sotnu of tho people on the car mast have it."

Two days later appeared an advertisement in the Herald to this effect:

"H'm!"said Miss Mary Armstrong, as she ulanced over this paragraph in the morning's pajer "thai'll never bring back tho umbrella."

In the bachelor apartments across the street the *dvertiaemnit was differently commented upon. Mr. Frank Keunedy who had been tilted back in ills arm chair, when lug eye loll upen It, suddenly sprang to Ids feet with an exclamation.

By tioorge, I'll win that wager!" wonder," he contiuued, a pure hen sivelv, "If Courtenay '11 see it? P1I borrow his morning paper, for fear he will. Why, what a royal road to an introduction this is! I'll take an umbrella—any uiobralU—my own would answer de*criptlon-TH, by C»*orge! much worn out, and I'd be ashamed of it—and go over puid prevent myself. CXnr«ntay '11 be fartotis—ha! hnf Hy •Ueorjt©, though, how did this umbrella get so shabby? I've only had it four weeks. I'll go buy a new one, black alpaca, with a carved Ivory handle, and introduce myself to MUM Armstrong with that. I feel that box of cigars already in my pocket."

Mr. Kennedy walked across the hall and tapped tlirlee, each time louder, upon the pposite door. Getting ao answer, ho called thtoiittti Ilia key-hole.-—

I say, Courtenay r'

there's Mr. Courteaay

"V:

Gone down town, air, half an hour

ago." "Gone

has!" muttered Mr. Kennedy, searching distractedly for hat and gloves. I say 1" a* liu ItaM'a th®

—to tho chambermaid—"where's nearest umbrol la store ®s Right round the oorner." "Runout and buy me an umbrella, will vou There's a good soul! Take thiB bill, and keep the change, and get uie a black alpaca umbrella, (ladies' site, remember that.) with an ornamented ivory handle, understand?" "All right, Sir." 1

And hurry—do!" The maid vanished, and Mr. Kennedy began to make himself irresistible as far as haste-would allow. Ho met he returning chamber-maid at the door, inspected the umbrella in the hall, and then triumphantly marched across the street. He rung the bell, inquired confidently for "Miss Armstrong," and was ushered in. With umbrella still hi hand he walked into tho parlors, but was arrested and stricken sjieeebless almost on the threshold by the sight of his chum, Ellis CourtoWay, who, also holding an umbrella In liand, occupied an easy chair by tho table. Mr. Courtenay was dressed with suspicions nicety, and the umbrella was apparently new.

The two occupants of the parlor faced each other in blank surprise, which in Mr. Courtenay's case, changed to amusement. As lor Mr. Konnedy, alter uttering explosively his favorite "By George he subsided into a chair, and began, feebly, 5 now—how—m—."

uSh!

Street,. New York eity. A

young lady was just stepping upon a borne-car before tho door, and uoth hurried toward it. The car passed on, leaving the two lines of aristocratic houses that composed the street wrapped in the mists of tho rainy afternoon.

Some one's coming!"

Miss Armstrong, opened the parlor door, had to hide her face behind her handkerchief for a moment ero she could advance with rt quisito gravity. Here two "knights of yesterday" were considerably embarrassed, but managed to present themselves, their oxeases and their umbrellas.

Bv George!" finished Mr. Kennedy, •'being on the car, you know, I felt, as I nii^ht say, interested, you know."

I'm much obliged to you, I'm sure." "And this isn't the umbrella?'' I'm sorry to say it isn't. Mr. Courtenay rose to go.

I should havo been glad to have returned vou your umbrella," he said, politely." "As it is, I can only hopo it may be restored."

As I do myself, I assure you," Miss Armstrong responded. "Not for the umbrella's sake, but for the sake offifty dollars and some photographic prools which werj screwed into the handle."

Eh By George!" Constraint was forgotten in tho sudden surprise created uy this statement, lie fore half an hour haa passed tho three were quite at ease together. They passed from speculation about the fate ol the umbrella to tho weather, and to locality and season, to amusements ana to music. When they left, it was with tho understanding that there might be future visits.

However, neither of tho young gentleman had his cup of satisfaction full to the brim, because of the other. Not a sentence did either utter as they crossed the street. In the upper hall of the boarding house at last Mr. Kennedy broke silonee:

I say, Courtenay, when did you see that advertisement?" About eight this morning," was tb? laconic response, as tho one addressed fumbled with his key.

And you went down town and—" I always go down town." "Oh, pshaw! Don't be high and mighty! You went down town and bought an umbrella. Oh, ho, ho, ho!" And Mr. Kennedy's voice grew fainter and fainter as ho retired into tho depths or his dressing room. Presently ho emerged therefrom, and shouted across the hall: "Well, wo neither «»f us won the cigars. Both of us got introduced the same minute, by George! I^et's go halves on a box." "All right," responded Mr. Courtenay, and shut his door, soliloquizing, as he strolled to the front window and gazed at tho house opposite, "As if I cared for cigars

It was noticed after this that the young gentlemen both cared very much for two thing*. They cared for their front windows, and. they cared moro yet for the owner of the lost umbrella, tho lady of No. 8.

Tho umbrella was not returned. It became a thing of the past. Whether or not Miss Armstrong bad tho light silk dress, uncertain, but taking into consideration the number of entertainments she attended, first with Mr. Kennedy, then "itli Mr. Courtenay, and so on. it is safe to assume that she did. Ami the winter wore away.

Now, the state of feeling between Miss Armstrong's two cavaliers was anything but cordial. To say that they avoided each other is a mild description. They insisted on being apart. Instead of having a social cigar together, they, whenever they spent an evening in, sat apart in moody unapproachability. Toward spring, matters grew still worso, and Mr Kennedy grew oblivious of his former lriend'a existenco. He, moreover ceasod going to No. 8 entirely, and to Mr. Courtney's amazement, seemed to have made ur» his mind to a courso of dissipation. Probably this did not agree with his health, for toward the middle of March, ho became invisible for several dnys, and it was reported that ho was ill. Confinement and solitude are terrible aiAictions to volatile persons. 8o it happened that,ouo windy March evening, neuralgia and lonesomencss conquered pride, and he sent a message to know it Courtenay would "oomo over."

Courtenay had no engagement and no objection. He was really shocked at the changed appearance of his friend, and was so cordially sorry for him that Mr. Kennedy's reserve utterly relaxed.

Yoh ro a good fellow, Courtenay but it isn't neuralgia altogether that i.using mo up. There are things worae than neuralgia, by George

I was standing In the draught staring at the sky—I kn*w that's the way got this neuralgia—and when I had finished, and stood there feeling that lite or death depended on her answer, what do yon think she said?"

Mr. Courtenay responded, in strangely muffled tones thai he haant an idea*

She said, and I oould have sworn she was laughing. 'Why, Mr. Kennedy, don't you know I have a vow I'm going to marry some one.' I gasped ont

4Who?" 4The

person who returns my

umbrella.' Confound umbrellas I" finished Mr. Kennedy, savagely kicking the table leg.

Mr. Courtenay's face, surrounded by wreaths of tobacco smoke, was very solemn indeed. It was more solemn still tho noxt morning at the breakfUst table. For almost a week It was as dolorous as the weather, and not once did ho sit In his accustomed place at the front window, or call at No. £.

Frank," ho shouted ono morning across tho hall, "l$nd me your umbrella, will you? I can't find either of mine."

There was a sound ot rummaging in Mr. Kennedy's apartment then an umbrella came flying across the passage, and landod on the door mat.

You'd better lose it somewhoredown town," growled the owner. I uevor want to see it again."

In a siiAilar gloomy mood,Mr. Courtenay began to perambulato the rainy and muddy streets. Whether his state of mind made him desperately careless and oblivious of his fellow pedestrians, is uncertain. At any rate, he came in violent contaot with a truckman, and was sent staggering blindly back into a doorway by the force of tho concussion. As for tne umbrella, it looked like a wrecked vessel, forthree of its ribs were broken, and, the stick, minus the handle, pointed protostingly upward. The hanalo was still clutched in Mr. Courtenay's hand, but that too semed to have become suddenly rickety. As he tossed it angrily against the opposite wall it fell back disjointed, and a little rwll of papers tumbled at Mr. Courtenay's very feet. For onco in his lile, and only once, tho latter individual .was betrayed into using his friend Kennedy's mvorite expression,44ByGeorge!"

He did not go down town„but returned home and shut himself up till after dinner. At seven o'clock he might have been seen crossing street, with a disreputable-looking umbrella in his

hand, which was just held together, and that was all. Bearing this, lie entered Miss Armstrong's presence, and answered her merry inquiry as to where ho had been the last week, briefly:

I've been finding your umbrella. Here it is." Somehow it took a great while for Miss Armstrong to understand how it come about. She was freshly amazed every five minutes to think that "her identical umbrella" had been all this time in Mr. Kennedy possession, just across the street. And to think, besides, that she had taken Mr. Kennedy's umbrella on the horse car! It was the very strangest thing that ever happened and she must go straight and tell mamma all about it.

But you have not done your part," interposed Mr. Courtenay. "You said the finder should be suitably rewarded."

For returning a whole umbrella. Thanks will pay for a broken one," replied Miss Armstrong, saucily.

Do you think so? But you have to keep your vow besides," said Mr. Courtenay, with perfect gravity.

She looked at him with wide-eyed surprise, then flushed and faltered as she asked: "V

What vow?" 44 To marry the person who returned vour umbrella."

Oh!" was the horrified response,

Did Mr. Kennedy Speaking of Mr." Kennedy, that individual was interrupted as he was lighting his first cigar tne following morning by a tap at tho door at which appeared Mr. Courtenay, holding an umbrella.

Miss Armstrong returns your umbrella, with thanks, and apologies for having unknowingly exchanged with you. You havo had hers four months, and I unfortunatoly broko it yesterday, when you lent it to me. She'd like you to accept the contents of tho handle of hers, and she insists on your taking this photograph. I is no more than right, since you've carried tho proofs about so long. Old fellow," he added, breaking into a long-suppressed laugh, |44you'11 havo to bo content with the photograph. She's promised tho original to mo."
