Better, infinitely better" said Tom,
for, besides his love, which may or
may not be worth having, what does he
offer her? Sunshine, daylight, liberty.
a square meal and time TO eat it, the
right to laugh aloud-more than you
or could offer to woman higher up
in the social scale With such advan-
tages to back his offer, is it a marvel
that she marries? 1t would be miracle
if she did not"
The sailors frank brow was clouded;
He was now thoroughly unhappy. His
friend had generalized where he particu-
larized, and while Tom poured out the
vials of his wrath for all oppressed wo-
men, he himself mourned over one In
his wisdom Tom declared matrimony
the solution of the problem, and in his
sincere and ardent soul the Captain felt
that he could propose that very hour to
purchase liberty for woman-if she
had the brow, the eyes, the mouth, of
Cassie.
1.-THE SECOND Box
In baseless dreams that night he pic
tured face like hers, and the expression
it might wear at offered emancipation.
Brown eyes flashing, cheeks mantling
like roses heart with the new delight
"She calls that den Christmas-box.
What if one were to give her another
and a better one?" The changing
and marvellous sea had brought him
into direct contact with wonders far
stranger than this, and the round
earth, which he had girdled many
a time, was like an open book upon
whose varying pages he had read
more curious tales than the one his
imagination was weaving. In his minds
eye he had violated with fearless ease
the inexorable unities of time and place,
and laid at Cassie's feet not only the
sunshine, daylight, and liberty, of Toms
enumeration, but leisure and compe-
tency wherewith to adorn it. They
would voyage together under far-away
skies-she never saw it now for dark
ness of the early morning and tiredness
at nipht-but he would show her its brill
liant beams in the frozen north, and its
golden haze in the tropics. She could
not stretch her arms out straight to-day,
but what rich recompense should be hers
in rose gardens and orange groves OF
which he knew, the stewed prunes and
prison banished forever! He rear
ranged his life, and scorned his old per
plexity the reconciliation Of Phlox
and Narcisse, in case he welded the
dogs lady; to he, what could he be?
Merely another Narcisse; to Cassie he
would be deliverer; and so the strong
man, who was bold as lion and cum
ming as serpent upon the treacherous
and stormy ocean, became harmless as
a dove and simple as child upon land,
and Arthur's willfulness and Toms
philosophy conspired to drive him upon
the Grand Windsor's perilous reef.
Early the next morning he summoned
his faithful ally, Arthur, and together
they went, where business called him
daily, to the hotel. Had the Captain
been schemer of the deepest dye, he
could have done no better than to sally
forth with his little aide-de-camp. AT the
marble entrance sat colored man with
a tray of summery bloom-roses and

Whose Chances are Brightest


Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-There is new
turn to the fight for the FL Paso collec-
torship. Owing to the extreme heat en-
gendered by the candidacy of thirty
seven applicants, it is reliably reported
that the secretary of the treasury is cast
ing about for a man who has never fig
ured as an applicant for the place.
AS a precedent was set for this
sort of action in the case of George A.
Knight, who came to be marshal through
the rivalry of Jones and MallOy, it is ex-
tremely probable that new man will be
taken for Ell Paso Col. Campbell said
to-day that he had never applied for the
Office and WASH It certain he would accept
it should it be rendered him. Owing to
the Importance of the Office and the great
need of having 1t run in Gquare way
more than usual care is being taken in
the selection of a collector. However,
nothing will be done until the president
gets back from his visit to Blaine. From
the fact that high official in the treas
ury was making inquiries recently about
DR.. White of Eel Paso in connection with
the custom house appointment there it is
surmised that White is the lucky man
who will draw the prize so hotly COM
peted for.

Dickinson WI Get His Money

WASHINGTON, Aug. G.-Seyeral years
ago the court of claims gave Judgment
for 500 900 in favor of Perez Dickinson OF
Tennessee, for cotton destroyed by Gen.
Burnside during the war. Some years
after congress provided for the payment
of the jueigment. Col. Woods, attorney
sin. thesease, demanded and received from
treasury department a draft
for the full amount. The draft
was of course made payable
to Dickinson, but he refused to
indorse 1t as he was afraid Woods would
retain more than he thought him entitled
to. Woods wanted S24 900, OF one
fourth of the entire amount, for his ser
vices. Several attempts were made to
settle the case, but without success.
Finally Secretary Fairchild recalled the
original draft and issued i'll its
stead two drafts, both payable
to Dickinson, and delivered one of
them, amounting to S24 900, to Woods
and the other for S72 900 to Dickinson.
The latter, however, refused to mdorse
the draft held by the attorney and de-
clIned to draw the money on his own.
In the meantime Woods brought suit in
Washington to establish his right to lien
on the Judgment, but the case was
dismissed for want Of jurisdiction.
More recently the case was again heard
at the treasury department, and to-day
Acting Secretary Batcheller decided to
paw the entire amount of the claim to
Dickinson and to leave the question of
attorney s fees to be settled between the
parties. Drafts outstanding were ac-
cordingly recalled and new one issued
III favor of Dickinson.

CHINA VS.. ENGLISH.
Probability Of an Animated Discuss
ion Between Them.

Great Britain has brought pressure to
bear upon the Canadian government for
the purpose of inducing the abandonment
of the policy of taxing Chinese on entering
the country. The present law is that every
Chlnaman, on entering Canada, must pay a
tax of SO. This regulation is irritating to
the Chinese government, and it is well
known that they threatened Great Britain
for the act. Great Britain has vast inter
ests in China, and. TO avoid suffering
vigorously for the sins Of Canada, she is
endeavoring TO get the $50 tax abrogated.
Capt Clayson, commander of the coast
guard Of the Chinese navy, says there is no
doubt that the Chinese government feels
very sore against both Canada and the
United States for their treatment of China
men. Whether China will take active
measures 10 retaliate against these coun
tries he is not at liberty TO say. There is
no doubt about her power The army and
navy are better drilled and equipped than
the outside world has any idea of, and are
becoming more perfect all the time. For.
eign officers are to be found in all branches
OF the service. Her resources in money
and men are seemingly unlimited, and any
power with whom she quarrelled would
have TO put up with whatever treatment
she melted out 10 them. England had be
come aware of this and was making siren
uous endeavors TO remove the only cause
for trouble that ever existed
