policemen were cutting the dead man

rivited on his masters face, but
the moment they tried to re-

face, whining piteOusly the while. The
police tried to coax him away, but he
showed his teeth every time they APP

them to keep their distance. The
blockade continued for over an hour.
Then one policenan.the less timid of the
lot, fired two shots at the faithful
brute. At this the dog plunged down
the stairs to the door and again blocked
the way. swapping at all who APP

palatiaI store and Algernon was very
much exercised over some intricate and
perpleXing accounts. He was worried
and anxious. He did not want to ap-
pear hasty or rude. but he was eX-
tremely anxious to discover the peskv
error in his cash balance. Alice was
beautiful in her new spring suit, and
she knew it. She was kitteniSh and pc
culiar, and AlgernOn was at. his wits
end. A precOciOuS office boy realized
the perpleXitieS of the situation and
herOirally came to the rescue.
He hurriedly picked up one of
the "anti-bore" scrolls and placed
it in front of Algernon'S desk.
Just when Alice was most seductive
and attractive the young boy crept UP
under the desk and suddenly unfurled
the scroll. The suggestion was neither
delicate nor appropriate. The Mortified
girl found confronting her the words:
please leave, | am going to have fiji, :"
and with wild hysterical shrek she
fell lifeless to the floor. A physician
was summoned, the girl was restored to
consciousness, and it was not until then
that the astonished and grief-stricken
lover read the SWOon-indueing words
upon the scroll.
Explanations were in order, and most
satisfactorily made. A wedding was
solemnized last week. and the eOnfiden-
tial clerk became a happy son -in-law,
but the Office bore-killing patented
scroll has been relegated to obScurity,

conversing with him, land there's quite
little romance connected with her,

'.She belongs down in Baltimore, and
her father is wealthy liquor distiller
of that city. She's got cool 5000, 1000 in
her own right, and decisiveness about
her that means business. She located
at the George hotel. Black Rock, this
summer, coming there all alone. a
young man sitting at her table attracted
her attention. She spoke to him one
evening after he had met her but three
times, and she broke him all up by ask
ing him if he was married. He replied
that he was too poorly situated for mar
riage just then; he hadn't much money,
and had to- support his father. We'll.
I've plenty of money she said; why

She returned to her home in Balti-

to Black Rock with her father, was
married in Bridgeport, and she and her
husband are passing the remainder of
the summer in Newtown. as happy as

PROMPT ACTION NECESSARY .
Minister Phelps Drives the Last
Nail in SackYilIe's Coffin.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-Lord Salisbury re-
manned at Hatfield house, his country
residence, to-day. He received several
cable dispatches from Lord Sack
vile, the British minister at Wash
ington, admitting the facts in connec-
tion with the MurchiSon letter and say
ing that he regretted them. A number
of dispatches from Secretary of State
Bayard, were forwarded to Lord
Salisbury, in which the secretary of
state urged that in view of the coming
national election in the United States,
it was imperatiyely necessary that
there should be change in the
British representative at Washington.
in order TO calm the popular excite
ment. Mr.. Phelps. the American min
lister. and Mrs. Phelps visited Hatfield
house this afternoon, and will be the
guests of Lord Salisbury until Monday.
Mr.. Phelps ana Lord Salisbury held a
long consultation in the library. Mr..
Phelps enlarged upon the
NECESSITY OF PROMPT ACTION
on the part of the British government
in order to repair the evil. Mr.. Phelps
made a special point that by treating
MurchisOn as a British subject, entitled
to advice, despite the fact that he stated
in his letter that he was naturaliZed
citizen of the United States, Lord
Sackville had disregarded and vio-
lated the understanding of September,
1871, when Mr.. Fish. then secretary of
state, obtained from the English gov
eminent a recognition of the American
doctrine of naturalization. Lord Sails
bury admitted that this was
most serious point of view of
Lord SackviIle'S conduct. The mat
ter is more annoying to Lord Salisbury
inasmuch as Lord Sacksville's appoint
ment originally was attributed to the
influence " his (SaekYille's) sister, who
was the wife of the late Marquis of
Salisbury, and who has since been mar
ried to the present Earle of Derby.
