THE GREAT AESPER.
TALE OF A BIG DIAMOND.
How an Immense Gem Was Lost,
Recovered. and Lost Again.
CHAPTER III.

When Van Hoeck recovered, and
the baronet heard of our long fast, he
took us at once into the dining-room,
and had us served with the best he
could give. 1t was repast to rec
ompanse us for our long privations,
and fora time we famished wretches
forgot our treasure in the keen animal
pleasure of satisfying the craving of
hunger. Sir Edmund sat at the table
withus, directing theservants, who sure
" had never before waited upon such
strange company, One could see that
it was q real delight to this large
hearted man to see us eat and drink.
Miss Lascelles herself waited upon
Van Hoeck, attending to his wants
with feminine delicacy, his atfliction
appealed to her woman's sympathy.
She WAS tall and graceful girl, with
her fathers fair, complexion, bright,
mirthful eyes, that added to
the happy expression of her face, and
beautiful soft brown hair that took
golden lights and chestnut shadows in
it's undulation. She looked you in the
face with a fearlessness only
possible to those who are perfectly
healthy and perfectly honest. To the
charm of physical beauty was added
a faultless manner,-the complete self
command and unfailing grace insepa-
rable from o lady of birth and
education. She was as courteous to
us, who must have seemed the veriest
outcasts OF society, as though we were
her equal. A true lady can never be
ungraciOuS.
Her presence had an indescribable
effect upon my senses,-the effect OF
fine music after discord. ! was con-
scious OF a return from savagery to
civilization. But it was not until my
gross appetite was satisfied that be-
came susceptible to this new delight.
The Baronet spoke not one word
about the diamond during dinner, but
when it was all over he said:
Well, now, we will go back to the
library; and you shall come with us,
Edith, if our cigars will not be dis
agreeable to you, for we have a
marvellous matter to talk about"
In the library Miss Lascellas seat
ed herself beside her father, while we
three men sat facing them on the
other side of a small round table, on
which I placed the diamond. At a
little distance from there was lion
skin on the floor. and on this the
Kid threw herself; as she lay there
looking toward us, with her chin
resting in the palms of her hands and
her elbows planted in the
fur, we saw scarcely anything of
her but her great lus-
trous eyes, because OF the shadow
thrown by the lamp shade,
"Now, let us understand the posi-
ton of things to begin with" said Sir
Edmund, taking cigar, after handing
the box to US.
"This will explain q good DEAL"
said l, putting i'll his hand the copy
OF our agreement.

storm was soon followed by the storm
itself, which crushed in a large part Of
the cholera hospital like an egg shell,
hurling the beds and wooden walls into
a mass of ruin. From the debris came
the shrieks and groans of the. victims. A
number of them died while the work of
rescue was going on. Other buildings
were also crushed in, and the tents of
the traders who had remained, notwith-
standing the cholera, were scattered
with their contents in all directions.
The wretched people of Novogorod have
had all the courage driven out of them
by this latest visitation, and many of

CosHocToN, o., Aug. 7.-The Toledo,
Walhtondining Valley and Ohio rail
way, a branch of the Pennsylvania sys-
tenn now in course of construction, ex-
perienced it's first horrible mishap
during the night, six miles north of
here, at point known as Richeson's
gravel pit. Six human beings We're
crushed to death and fifteen others ter
ribly injured, two Of them fatally. The
cause Of the horrible mishap is as fol-
lows: A construction train in charge of
Conductor Humphrey and Engineer
Clyde, which has been engaged in haul
ing gravel from the pit. The dead and
injured were engaged in ballasting the
roadway at the point three miles
north of the pit. After the last
train had been unloaded the men boarded
the cars that were being pushed ahead
of the en- zine to their boarding camp.
A few hundred yards south of the gravel
pit, The train was running at hazard
Gus speed, and when they arrived at the
gravel pit, Which was to be passed with
out stopping, the switch was open and
the train entered the siding and collided
with some empty cars standing in the
pit. The great number of workmen
were seated on the first and second cars,
and when the long train turned in upon
the spur they had no opportunity to
jump. Ten of the cars were piled in a
mass of debris and beneath this the
poor mortals were crushed. 1t required

Interior, who is largely responsible for
the radical change in tho policy Of the
land department as the court of the
last resort in contest cases, will leave
the department with a record for close
attention to business equalled by few
government officers. During the past
three years he has been at his desk
every day, not even taking the leave of
absence to which all government en-
ployes are entitled. His decisions have
been marked by common sense and
good judgment, the honest settler get
ting the benefit of the doubt in every

BATTLE WITH. A PYTHON.
-Four Mcnn's Terrible Struggle With u
Monster SCrDent.

Monster Serpent.
NEW YORK, Aug. 17.-For nearly an
hour i'll this city four able-bodied men
with sixteen-foot python
which had just shed its skin, and cele-
brated the occasion by sliding out of its
cage in the museum of Louis Ruhe, on
the second floor of 2 William street.
1t was a care-taker who first noticed
the python wriggliny around the room,
poking its head in every crevice for an
avenue Of escape to the street. This
man summoned Ruhe and two other
men, and the four seizing different parts
of the snakes body, endeavored to re-
cageit. The python's body is nearly
three inches thick. 1t has large
mouth and sharp fangs, which bite
ferociously when the animal is enraged.
Again and again did the reptile wriggle
itself out OF the grasp of the four men,
now swerving them to this and now to
that side of the room, dashing them
against the walls and darting it's fangs
at them with terrible effect They saved
themselves by kicks which they gavethe
snake from their thick-soled boots
and blows from clubs. Finally, when the
battle had waged nearly half all hour
and the noise OF shouts and blows could
be heard. for Il block, there was bang,
a crash of glass and the snakes head ap-
peared outside the window. 1t slipped
toward the pavement like one end of a
piece OF thick creased rope, mottled
brown in color. There was cry of
horror among the spectatr rs, and boys
ran in every direction, while the horses,
with animal instinct, neighed with
fright. One of the men, however, roll
ing his hands in cloth, seized it's till and
all four held ontight Thepython curved
its head upward and bit piece of one
mans coat sleeve. Nevertheless the lnol
held on, and by their united efforts The
snake was drawn upward and at las
safely Gagged, much to the relief of the
onlookers,

to suffice for all political wants, it was
free silver. When this first came to a
vote they could not pass it. Then they
said it didn't make much difference,
the senate would not pass it anyhow,
for it was q Republican senate. Then
this Republican senate, mean lot of
devils as they are, went and passed it,
having no regard for the prophets of
the Democratic house; they passed this
bill that the Democratic house could
not pass. Then it went back down to
the house and thirteen of the Demo-
Gratis who had stood by us in March
could not be found except among the
enemy. When it went to vote it was
thirteen less than nothing.

tious address congratulating the order
upon the work accomplished, and asking
Gods blessingon future work. At II 80

brief address of welcome. The reports
Of officers were thar received. A recess

Boss Loucks, whose visible being has
been transplanted to Washington but
who still edits the Ruralist at long
range, exhibits wonderful amount Of
solicitude for the feelings of the foreign
horn citizens of South Dakota, whom he
alleges were insulted by Capt. Sheldon
atMitchell two years ago. We appreciate
fully this solicitude and we take pleas
ure in calling Mr.. Loucks's attention to
another insult, eyen more direct and
deadly. which threatens these same
foreign-born citizens of our own fair
state. One Mrs. Lease of Kansas has been
extensively advertised to take part in
the Independent campaign in this state.
She is the same woman who is given
credit for having secured Senator In
CALLS scalp in Kansas, and she was one
OF the shining lights and shouting spir-
its of the late Omaha convention. She
seconded Weaver's nomination, and as
the peroration of her speech delivered
herself of the following scintillating
gem of thought:
Give us Gen. Weaver and not only
the mothers, but the very children will
battle for him. Give him to us and we
will drive from American shores the
English and Irish with their stolen
goods.
Loucss certainly ought to interfere
between this knownothing Kansas vira-
go and the foreign-born citizens whom
she holds in such contempt, by keeping
her out of the state.

Time to Gail q Pension Halt.

Gen. H. W. slocuIn. In the January Torum.l
Congress is besieged at every ses
sion so to change the laws as to in
crease the roll of pensioners and vastly
to increase the expenditures of the
government. | believe the time ha.
come when this agitation should ce ase
l earnestly hope that it will be
checked for two reasons: First, | be
leve the tendency of these constant
demands will be to lesson the estee II
and affection which our people have
always felt for the veterans of the late
war. The lberality OF the people and
their desire to be generous towards
the nations defenders have been
evinced not only by this vast pension.
roll but by the establishment by the
general government Of national homes
in different sections of the country,
and by several States of like
institutions. In these homes the dis
ab!ed veteran is as kindly cared for as
III any similar institutions supported
by any govt rnment in the world.
Laws have also been passed giving
the veteran preference in the employs
ment OF the government. In fact,
nothing has been left undone by our
people to testify their gratitude to the
veteran soldiers.
But l have still stronger reason
for opposing the further agitation O!
this question, and that is the interest
l feel in the welfare Of the many thou
sands of honest and deserving people
whose names are now on our pension
roll. There is great danger, if we al.
low the pension claim agents to repre-
sent the soldiers as holy of
cormorants who are disconnected
with what they have received,
that sooner or later We shall
skill tie goose that lays the golden
eggs" 1t is for the interest of the
pension claim agent constantly to
change our penslon-laws so as to ems
able him to bring in new claims, each
OF which brings money to his Golfers
AT the rate pensions are now beng
granted, the claim-ag~nts are in
receip, Of s3,5o0,0o0 per year. 1t is
this class Of men and not the honest
pensioner who is interested in con-
tinuing this agitation. l fear that
eventually reaction will take place
and honest and deserving pensioners
will suffer with the undeserving.
