He bowed low once more, after the
Oriental fashion, drank it eagerly,
and astonished Olive very much by
raising her hand to his lips, as he ut
tered the words "B1on giomo sig

said Olive, turning very rosy.
'It's lucky for you that Maude
didn't see him." laughed Eleanor
May.
Ooh, Eleanor, don't tell her!"
said Olive, blushing deeper than ever.
"Of course shan't' said Eleanor.
"Well, what. luck?" demanded
Guy Mariner. as he sat smoking at
his window that evening, and hailed
with acclamation the approach Of AL
gernon Medlicote.
''Pve won MY wager"

''But, by the shades of Moham

sitting down where the cool breeze
of twilight could fan his brow.

Il disguised myself as a scissors
grinder, and put the family shears in
perfect order
Did they suspect-the young Ia
dies, I mean
''Not in the least"
"And how does the fair one with
the golden locks appear in the Sc
clusion of her own home?'
''Like slovenly virago," he said.
''Had it been anything else than the
testimony of my own eyes l couldn't
have believed il. But Olive-little
brown-eyed Olive-she is jewel Of

laughed Mariner. "But isn't it rath.

both her water and her lover at the

licote, gravely shaking his head, "bu

to the scissors-grinding fraternity"
And beautiful Maude Satterly coult
not understand why it was that AL

"Everybody thought he was de

From the Lexington Intelligencer,

Some dissatisfaction has been ex-
pressed at the passage of a law hv
the Legislature to prevent bidding for
office, as it is called, for the ALLEGED
reason that if such law was passed
the legislature should have reduced
salaries and fees. 1t did do this, but
so many misrepresentation have been
made by republican papers of what
the body did, that the people are in
many instances deceived, as in this
one. OF the bill reducing salaries
and fees the Paris Mercury, of recent
date, says: ''Another new law pass
ed by the general assembly, at its late
session, was the "fee BILL" as it is
called. 1t is claimed that under IFS
operation about one hundred thous-
and dollars of costs will be saved to
the state IN criminal and other cases
In addition 1t reduces the fees of the
circuit and county clerks, witnesses.
jurors, etc, etc. The only danger
is that the ''retrenchment" is carried
too far. Besides reducing the fees of
county and circuit clerks it reduces
also the amount they are allowed to
retain. For instance, in Monroe
county the county clerk must pay all
his fees in excess of Sl,250 into the
county treasury-Sl, 800 being the
previous limit. This bill originated
in the senate. A similar house bill
was defeated in the senate, and this
introduced and passed in its stead.
The limitation as to amount Offices to
be retained does not take effect while
the present clerks are in office, but
the reduction of fees to be CHARGED
by the officers for any official act
takes effect with all other general
laws in ninety days after the adjourn
ment. " In this county the reduction
made in clerks salaries is from So
600 to Sl.OCO.

entire coast of Alaska, including the
islands and embracing $500 miles of
frontage, sis vast reservoir of fish,
of the cod variety, and equal to
the best caught on the banks of New
foundland. Capt. White, attached
to the United States revenue marine
service, who was employed there last
year, confirms the statement of Nor
ris, and says that he sounded along
the shores of Alaska, finding nothing
but "a vast Goldfish bank, with plenty
of halibut."
Assuming the correctness of this
information-and there is no reason
to doubt 1.-THE country may be con-
graduated upon the prospect of "get-
ting even" in the Alaska business.
Heretofore that national possession

money, saying nothing of the cost of
maintenance. The seal catching has
been, and is, in the hands of a cor
poration monopoly which gives the
government very little if any of the
proceeds; and aside from the seals
there has been no crop worth gather
ing. But the Goldfish ought to help
matters out wonderfully. They are
a staple article of food of which the
world never seems to get tired; and
if properly managed the Alaska sup
ply should meet all demands, and
thereby becomr the source of hand
some annual revenue. Certainly,
with such supply in our own waters,
we need not quarrel with England
any more about the Canadian fisheries. |
Let us hope that Congress will be
shrewd enough to not to let this un-:
expected addition to the national
assets follow the seals, and drop into
the relentless maw of a close corpo-
ration.

Look Out.

An exchange says: ga new swim
die is being attempted in some parts
of the country. Last fall, travelling
salesmen disposed of lot of top bug
gies to farmers and others at S6G
apiece, and now second gang is
going around claiming that they hold
chattel mortgages of $50 on each
vehicle. Some have given up their
carriages, while Others will contest
the matter"
Alludlng to this matter, the Hanni-
bal Clipper remarks: ''Some of this
class of vehicles were sold here on
Saturday last at ruiaous figures, rang
ing from S32 to S35, and it was claim
ed that only $1.40 was made on each
buggy. This, it would seem, would
scarcely pay for the time expended
in their sale, let alone the board per

The AUeiEso FIipt.


She was supreme five years ago.
But five years have told upon her
complexion and her beauty, while the
young men adored her are young
men still, and WOO her little chit of a
sister, who seems to her only fit for
! the governess and the children's din
ner. The retrospect is not pleasant.
p, She thinks of time wasted, of honest
hearts toyed with, embittered, reject
ed. She has seen, one by one, pref
ty girls of not half her beauty or style
reap2d and garnered by the proper
husbandmen. And now she stands out
rejected, abandoned and in the cold.
The retrospect is not pleasant. But
how about the prospect! 1t is sad

bright rooms, the polished floors.
Still her name figures on the invitation
cards, though she knows that she is
asked not for her own but for her SIS
ter's sake. She might indeed give
up the game and retire with the dig
nifty OF years. But the dignity oi
years is an indignity for her. She

she trips it on 4 toe which perhaps
never was fantastic and has certainly
long since ceased to be light. What.
