What Katie hid.

When Mr.. J. FL. Keller left this city with hi
family to spend the summer at Biloxi, he hat
bound TO him German girl named Kate seruve
Kate was happy for awhile on the sea beach
but at last grew weary and wanted to return IL
the city.
One day she handed Mr.. Keller letter, pur.
porting to have been written by her mother
which stated that Kate should DO sent ifnme.
diately home. This letter was. however. discoy.
cred TO be forgery, and she did not gain her
point.
Perseverance sometimes conquers, and as Kate
had failed by forging . letter to return to the
city, she made second effort and used more
dangerous weapon to gain her victory. One
evening while she was talking to the other ser.
wants Of the house she remarked:
'If this house would burn down, would not Mr..
Keller and family return to the city?" This re.
mark was answered by the servants in the
affirmative, and the next night Mr.. Keller dis.
covered his house to be on fire in the garrett.
The flames were, however, discovered in time and
extinguished.

THE NEW ORLEANS DEMOCRAT WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20,

to know that the feat OF "elevating" Special
Deputy Champlin is not quite so essy TO accom-
plish as was anticipated by the delegation who
once in the Treasury Department would be at
once shown the Endorsements left there by two
or three dozen prominent Senators and Repre-
sentatiyes when Champlin was pressed for the
position Of
ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.
None OF the delegation were aware OF this fact
and to make their labor . little more difficult,
those very indorsers having been made fully
aware Of the "raid," have gone to the front again
in support OF their friend.
In addition TO this quite large number Of i'm.
porters and business men OF the city have for
warded to the Secretary protest against Champ
Inns removal, which will it is said have consider
able weight with the great powers at Washing

The Maggie ana olivia, Of New Orleans,
Carry OFF the First and second Prizes.
According to the intimations thrown out by our
yesterdays dispatch, the postponement Of the
Point Clear regatta was most wise proceeding,
for yesterday there was splendid wind blowing
from the south, and it proved to be q most sue
cessful affair. or late there has been not a
little contention between the yachtsmen of our
city and those along our lake coast over the re-
spective merits OF their boats. and, although one
or two trials we're had, no one appeared to be
fully satisfied.
The owners Of our Maggie from the first were
confident of her speed, and from early spring
were anxious to arrange match for sum that
would be worth running for. According to the
dispatch given below, they did not reckon with
out their host, for that gallant yacht won the first
class prize, and her followers the Olivia took
the second prize. 1t appears two Of the Mobile
boats, owing to the heavy wind, capsized. making
the scene oil the more exciting. The following
are our special dispatches:
