Defaultpr Murdered,

ELMIRA, N. Y, Aug. 21.-News was re-
ceived here to-day that Ebert p. Cook, who
was president of the Bank of Havana, New
York, and who some time ago embezzled
all the available funds, drove to this city
at midnight and took train for Canada
since which time his movements had been
a mystery, and his oldest daughter had
been shot by an insane man in Buenos
Ayres July II. Cook went Immediately
from Canada to South America, and was
Joined at Buenos Ayres last fall by his
family, consisting of his wife and four lit
tie girls, the oldest thirteen. A young man
named Gluck, from indianapolis was an
inmate Of the family residence at BuenoS
Ayres. On July II, while Mr.. and Mrs. Cook
were standing in doorway talking, Gluck
walked out from another room where he
had been writing, and without the slightest
warning shot Cook, killing him instantly.
Then he turned to shoot Mrs. Cook, when
the daughter, Thankful, who was up stairs,
rushed down and was shot through the
temple, dying instantly. With the butt Of
his pistol Gluck then inflicted ugly wounds
on Mrs. Cooks head which rendered her
insensible. He dragged the bodies TO the
cellar door and then committed suicide by
taking chlorOform. 1t is supposed that hB
was insane as the family had never had
any trouble with him.

GALVESTON'S GALE.

One Hundred and Fifty Dwellings De-
stroyed-Part of the City Under Water.
GALVESTON, Tex, Aug 21.-A violent
easterly gale began yesterday morning with
the wind blowing at the rate of fOrty-five
miles an hour and increasing In velocity
almost every moment The southern ana
southwestern portion of the city was soon
inundated by water and many families were
driven out and compelled TO seek safety
and shelter at the hotels down town. The
street railway along the beach was torn up
and the waters of the gulf were soon break
ing over the lower galleries of the Beach
Hotel. Much apprehension is felt for fam
lilies residing at exposed points and for
shipping anchored in the outer roads. To-
ward evening the gale became hurrt-
cane and the gulf was never seen in
such a furious mood. Thousands
of people who were obliged TO leave
their homes were unable to remove
their effects, while others were fortunate
enough to construct RATS on which to trans
port the more valuable of their goods to
places of safety. All the portion of the
city east of Thirteenth street and south OF
Avenue l. was under the waves at mid
night Houses along the beach were swept
away bodily. There were many narrow
escapes of occupants. Some had to swim.
Probably $50 dwellings have been des-
tToyed and scores of others have been
greatly damaged. In the central part Of
the city only the lower floors of the build
iDgs were invaded by water, and the mer-
chants saved their goods from damage by
removing them to the upper floors, and thus
prevented great loss. There is a great
deal of suffering among the dis
possessed refugees but every effort is
being made to aid them. The storm is a
trightful one and causes general alarm and
confusion. Among the buildings destroyed
are the Beach rink where the State Demo-
cratic convention was held and all the build
ings in the interstate drill grounds. The
total loss will reach 100000. Several re-
tailers on Mechanic, Market and POst-Office
and fremont streets suffered considerable
damage to stock The water covered the
lower floor of nearly every store on the
south side of Market street between Nine
teenth and Twentieth streets and between
Babb avenue and Twenty.eighth street.
Three seamen Of the schooner Livona Per-
kins were drowned by her capsizing. The
captain swan nearly ten miles and
was rescued. A negro was drowned on
shore. These are the only fatalities known

CHAPTER XIV.
JNCLG DAMS PREDICTION

Carefully as Mr.. Miles had kept his
opinion of Walter Brownfield locked
in his own heart, his very manner
aroused the suspicion of his family that
something was wrong. The GOODNESS
with which Walter was treated was per-
ceived by all, aud both old heads and
young began to put many strange things
together
Pinkey Miles perhaps suffered more
OH account of the youth than any other
member of the family. Her naturally
sympathetic heart went out to the un-
fortunate Walter when he came there
a few weeks before, homeless wan
derer His face was so pale and so
sad, he looked so weary and friendless,
she could not help plying him. Then
when she discovered in him the true
germ of manhood, a noble heart, and
highly intellectual brain, then was adj
miration mingled with her pity. He
was her ideal of true manliness. How
different when compared with the rough
clownish fellows of Preston Flat, who
seemed to know nothing save to run
horses on Sunday and attend corn
huskings. In form he was more slen-
der than they, not nearly so muscular,
but his genteel well-bred air contrasted
strangely with the rough rude youths of
Preston Flat. The Flat had its DULLES and
heroes whose achievements were with
the fist. Walter was Pinkey's hero, but
far different. He was refined hero.
'Could he be so badP" was the ques-
tion which arose in her mind again and
again. Was it possible that he who
was so gentle and kind would associate
himself with men whose whole aim
was plumber and bloodshed?
Although Mr.. Miles had not charged
Walter, nor limited at his suspicious to
his family, yet Pinkey knew as well
that he had suspicious as If she had
heard them. She had read of mer
being deceitful, and playing the par
of good men when in reality they were
knaveS at heart, but Walter could b.
playing no such part; his manner wa!
perfectly natural

The Grow Indians Taking Up AllOtments
and Becoming Good Citizens.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-During the last
two and half years a remarkable move
ment has been going on among the Crow
Indians in Montana, south of the Yellow
stone. So long as buffalo lasted their
primitive occupations and ambitions were
unmodiied, but in the spring of 1884
the location Of the agency was changed,
and they began to move on to the
arabic lands in the valleys Of the
Little and Big Horn rivers to cultivate
small patches of land and put up rude
houses. A recent report from Agent
Williamson Of the Indian office states that
between 300 and $50 families are now To-
Gated on desirable lands which they wish
to have allotted them that they may enjoy
the advantage of possessing genuine home
Steads. This allotment was promised them
in their agreement of 1880, and the last
session of Congress appropriated $4,000 for
carrying out the provisions Of the agree
ment. Messrs. John G. Walker of Wash
ingtOn, and r. S. Saunders, of New York
city, have just been commissioned to visit
tine Crow reserve and make
the alOtments and they will start
west for that purpose in few days. IL is
expected that they will be able to place.
every family of the tribe on individual al
lOtments, and that soon after their lands
may be patented them as further provided
in the agreement. Heads of families are
to receive one-quarter and Others One-eighth
section of arabic land, and equal amount Of
grazing land in addition. The importance
of this step to the Crow tribe can not be
overestimated. 1t places them in the front
rank of Indian tribes who will soon be ready
for citizenship.

eyes, he'll jine us; he can't help it. "
The team was hitched, Bill got out
and Walter did the same. They then
repaired to the cabin. Walter moved
and acted like one under some strange
spell, some irresistible force seemed
driving him on to ruin. Inside the
cabin they were all grouped together,
and a plan for the robbery of the Bush

assigned him. An hour passed in which
the plot was fully laid and all arrange

"You understand it all now, young

TWO MAIDENS.

l..
Tra skies were bright and the world was fair,
The tall trees swaYed in the mild June air,
The bees were humming amid the flowers,
And song-birds gladdened the golden hours
Two maidens wandered across thc lea,
With hearts as happy as hearts could be;
They paused on gently sloping hill
To talk of the future, as young girls VIII.
There came no phantom. no thought OF pain,
10 blue-eyed Leila or dark eyed Jane;
No dark fOrbod ng, no dream of i'll,
AS they gazed afar from the peaceful hill
AT the glorious clouds floating calmly by
Through the azure vault of the heavens on
high,
And fading fast in the morning air,
Like little grlefs from worldly carr.
Then Leila said. "In future year,
in wealth and splendor will appear,
And wen, on Il future summer day,
My costly carriage may come this way,
The simple farmers. With strange surprise.
VIII gaze at me with their envious eyes.
I'll dress In satns and LAGOS rare,
And brilliant diamonds shall deck my haic.
" And l." said Jane, would the fond wife be
OF one who marries for love and me-
Give me home, and sweetheart there
For wealth and fashion do not care.
My tastes are simple, my wants are few,
My hope and dream to be good and true
My prayer, my purpose, my real intent,

The summers pass and the winters wane
With blueeyed Leila and darkeyed Jane,
Where the brilliant gas-light CLEANS and talli
On velvet carpet and gilded walls,
On costly carvings and pictures rare,
a woman sits in her easy chair,
Sits with weary, yet languid grace
The roses have fled from her once-fa1r faco.
All blue.eyed Leila, your hopes were vain,
Your years are saddened by grief and pain,
For what is fashion or what is wealth
70 worldly women unbessed by health?
And what are satins or laces rare,
Or diamonds blazing amid their hair,
When check is furrOwed and beauty hedt
y! life is nothing, when love is dead!
Dark-eyed Jane in her cottage stands,
Clasping her baby in her hands
She looks DER the meadows toward the hill,
And thinks as only woman will:
home for shelter, and clothes to wear,
Enough for comfort, and some to spare;
Little asked of wealth or fame,
Yet all of my wished-fOr blessings came"

CHAPTER XVII.
THE INTERVIEW.

Walter went to the house of Jack
Hawkins, and informed him that he
had been discharged by Farmer Miles,
HE bounced We, did he, ehP' asked
Jack, with grin on his face.
Eyes" said Walter, 81 was dis
charged and l certainly did not merit
it. -
"Well, ole Miles must hev got
kinder suspicion, We know" said Jack.
"But it'll all come out fair in the end;
We go to Bushville an look about We
sharp there. Dress up in yer best an
call on Mr.. Smallweed; may be We kin
git place in the bank as clerk; eff ye
can't We kin git near enough to see
how the doors ar hung, an the best
way to get in. The other boys nd
iist give the thing away eff they 'ud try
that part. You ar the only one in the
band who could do it."
This was the course that Walter had
laid out for himself; yet with far diff
ferent design from that intended by
Jack Hawkins. He babe Jack good
bye and trudged on to the village. The
heart of Walter Brownfield was much
heavier than it was a month ago, when
he came along this very road seeking
employment as a farm hand. True,
then he was penniless and actually
suffering with hunger; but now an un-
known, indetinable dread had seized
his heart. He passed several neigh
bors, who knew him, and such express
sions as
"On the tramp again, eh?"
"Givin' the road a lick, eh?" t.
"What, runnm' away?'
" Goodbye, Walter" and a hun
dred others greeted his ears. His face
flushed, until it almost seemed on fire,
yet he restrained his temper. To some
of the more sympathetic of his friends
he answered politely, informing them
that, for the present he would sojourr
at the village.
The quaint little country town was
reached at last, and, weary and heart
sore, Walter proceeded at once to the
small tavern, where he secured board
| for a week at two dollars and fifty
cents He saw Jack Hawkins and
Bill Martin, who had evidently stepped
in to see if the new recruit was getting
in his work we'll They did not con-
verse with him, but he felt that their
eyes were constantly upon him. He
shuddered as he noticed the two vii
lains watching his every movement.
Walter went to the bank of Mr..
Smallweed and stood about the door
for some time. The ruffians supposed
that he was making an examination of
the vault, with a view to aiding them
in the burglary.

intended to make then: believe that he
was doing their bidding, and yet to
avoid meeting them personally.

miserable tavern, determined to see
