1000 Dollars Worth of Virtue,

81 900 Dollars Worth of Virtue.
In our advertising columns will be
found a proclamation by the Union
League Club, Offering 81. 900 reward
for the detsction OF any fraud at the
ballot boxes next Tuesday. This is a
regular annual investment in wind by
the Republican leaders. 1t cost moth
ing but the price OF the advertising
space in The NEWS and Journal !,
There is never the remotest chance
of the LOCO being called for. The
return for the small outlay is proba-
bly, very good indeed. The purpose
is to guli voters, and unqusstionably
it has Its effect with the gullible.
Now, let us see how sincere 1t is. A
thousand dollars is a good round sum
of money. Thousand dollar bills do
NOT grow in clusters like leaves
upon the trees. Supposing there
we're any real attempt at
fraud in this county. Suppose
for Instance, there were twenty-five
Or thirty cases discovered. mot to
speak Of such a number as in 1882
how would the Union League Club
propose to pay the reward. The Re-
publican party has q good many rich
men In its ranks. but could 1t or
would II pay mp $2S. 600 in rewards
for the detection OF election frauds.
But. on the other hand, II the party
anticipated only poor little. mis-
cradle measiy fraud, would it offer
any such sum a. $1,000 for its detec-
tiouf
You see this offer Is insincere. IL Is
fake. 1t means nothing, 1t Is Of
fered In the full expectation that it
will never be demanded. 1t Is simply
a bit OF election clap trap. and that is
all there is to II.
Now we are most anxious to see
Sheriff Stanton elected. We believe
both on public and party grounds
that he ought to be at the head of the
polls this fall. We urge every demo-
cratic support him; we desire to see
every possible resource strained 70 Sc
cure victory for him and for the
party, And yet We would much
rather see him beaten than see him
elected by fraud, corruption or dis
honesty in any form. We are not
afraid to lash crime in our own
party. We have done our share
in bringing about ballot reform
and in securing the conviction of the
men who dehauehed the franchise in
this county. We point with conf
dence and With pride to our record in
this regard. We bslieve every one
republican and demoerat-will believe
us when va say that We stand pre-
pared, at need, to do the same thing
again. Show us the ballot-box stuff
ing. the repeating, the false registra-
ton, and we will lead the cry to put
those guilty Of the wrong behind the
bars, no matter what their party.
But let as have no imposture on the
public, let as have no ante-election
scare designed to catch the hesitat-
ing voter now and to be promptly
forgotten the day after election. Let
rs have fair play. Let us fight this
fight to the end or the issues of the
campaign, and not try to influence
votes by lies aud fabrications about
contemplated crimes, which have no
existence except in the imaginations
Of those who are doing the shouting.

II Mr.. Monk wanted to go through the
marriage ceremony with that child he
had some special and mysterious rea-
son for so doing, unless--which was
scarcely possible-he was of a senti-
mental disposition, and, in the manner
OF many men advanced towards middle
age, was enamored of Mats youth and
inexperience.
"Tell me, Matt" said Brinkley, after
pondering the matter for some min
utes; "tell me how long you have
known this Mr.. Monk?'
Ever since came ashore" was the
reply.
"Humph!-is he well to do?-rich3"
Matt nodded emphatically.
"All Aberglyn belongs to him." she
said, "and the woods up there, and the
farms, and the horses up at the big
house, and-everything."

son, he is very friendly with William

"oh, yes," answered Matt; "and I
think William Jones is afraid of him
sometimes; but he gives William Jones
money for keeping me-"
"Oh, indeed! He gives him money,
does, he? That's rather kind of him,
you know"
At this Matt shook her head with
great decision, but said nothing. Great
ly puzzled, the young man looked at
her, and mused. 1t was clear that
there was mystery somewhere, and
he was getting interested. Presently
he invited Matt to sit down on the
steps OF the caravan, and he placed
himself at her side. He was too ab-
sorbed in speculation to notice how
the girl colorod and frightened as they
sat there together.

pause. 81 should like to know some

Paper, Pens and Ink.

Paper, as we learn from recent dis
coveries, was In use in Egypt as far
back as $500 B. c., and not merely, as
old Pliny thought, from the time of
Alexander the Great. The ancients, IL
appears, knew more about pens and
inks than they usually have credit for.
The Greeks made silver and other me-
tallic pens, and Latin manuscripts
show q great variety Of inks-red, pur-
pie, green, blue, silver and gold. Tho

museum shows the skill Of the penman

fro be CONTINUED.

A Political situation Which Closely Rivals
the One In England.
Cuba stands related TO Spain and
Spanish politics very much as Ireland
does to England and English politics
Cuban affairs take up disproportion-
ate amount Of time In the Cortes; the
Cuban deputies rival the Irish MEM
bers Of parliament in fatal huency
OF speech and readiness to denouncs
the government on the slightest provo
cation; and standing cause of per-
plexity and dismay to Spanish cabinets
has been the problem of governing
Cuba in a way TO maintain Spanish
supremacy and satisfy native senti-
ment ut the same time. The minister
for the colonies recently brought in a
bill for the reorganization of the
Cuban government which provides for
a considerable degree of home rule
and distinctly takes away from the
despotic power of the captain general.
Upon it public opinion in the island
and in Spain has been divided, some
maintaining that it was a legitimate
concession to the desire for self-gov-
ernment, others contending that it
was first and dangerous step towards
complete independence. Minister
Maura has planted himself on the very
modern ground for Spaniard that it
is impossible to govern q free people
without having some way Of consult
ing thcir wishes, and that the majority
in Cuba should be allowed to decide on
affairs Of local government. On the
whole the preponderance of opinion in
Cuba seems to favor the plan, and as
the minister has Sagasta's full assent
and backing 1t seems probable that the
bill will be given trial. 1t will be
nearly as interesting and instructive
to watch its operations in Cuba as it
will be TO observe the working of the
new Irish parliament in Dublin.-N.

CHAPTER VII
MATT GROWS MATRIMONIAL

AA NHCVo HhAhhmOhlhA
That night the young man Of the
caravan had curious dreams, and
throughout them all moved like pre-
siding fairy Matt of Aberglyn. Some
times he was wandering on stormy
shores, watching the wrecks of mighty
argosies; again he was in mysterious
caverns underneath the ground, search
ing for and finding buried treasure;
still again he was standing on the
decks of storm-tossed vessels, while
the breakers thundered close at hand
and the bale-fres burned on lonely
headlands. But at all times and in all
places Matt was his companion.
And, curiously enough, Matt in his
dream was very different to the Matt
of waking reality: taller and brighter
in fact, as beautiful as n vision can
be; so that his spirit was full of q
strange sensation of love and pity, and
the touch Of the warm little hand dis
turbed his spirit with mysterious Joy.
So vivid did this foolish dream become
at last that he found himself seated
on a sunny rock by the sea by Mats
side; and he was talking to her like O
lover, with his arm around her waist,
and she turned to him, with her great
eyes fixed on his, and kissed him over
and over again 30 passionately that

II was blowing hard, and the rain
was pelting furiously on the roof OF
the caravan. He tried to 20 to sleep
again, but the face of Matt las he had
seen 1t in his'dream) kept him for
long time awake.
Now, young man." he said to him
self, "this Is idiotic. In the first place,
Matt is child, not q young woman;
In the second place, she is vulgar
little thing, not young lady; in the
third place, you ought to be ashamed
OF yourself for thinking of sentiment
Mt all in such connection. Is your
brain softening, youngster? or are
you laboring under the malign infiu-
ence Of William Jonesp The kiss you
gave to this unsophisticated daughter
OF the desert was paternal, or say,
amicable; II was a very nice kiss, but
1t has no right to make you dream Of
stuff and nonsense" a
But the influence of the dreatn was
over him, and In that half sleeping,
half waking state, he felt like boy In
love. He found himself calculating
the age Of his own friend Let him
seel 1t was fifteen years since, in her
own fgurative expression, she ''come
ashore" and the question remained:
How old was she on that interesting
occasion9. AS far as he could make out

ING HIS FATHER A NUDGE.

full tales; and wonder sometimes If
all they says be true"
Brinkley looked at his host for a
minute or so in silent wonder, for the
little man was transformed. Instead
of gazing upon him with the stupid ex-
preston which up till now his face had
wore, his face expressed all the keen
ness Of fox-hound we'll on the scent.
There was also another curious thing
which the young man noticed: the
word wreck" seemed to act like magic
on the other members of the Jones
household. At the first mention of it
the old man started from his sleep; and
he now sat staring wildly before him,
evidently imagining he was standing
on headland gazing out TO sea.
"Wreckp' he murmured. SAY, there
II be, driftin' in wi the wind and the
tide, William-driftin' In wi the tide"
"Shut up, old man." said William,
giving his father nudge; then, turn
ing again TO Brinkley, he said: BE
them tales true, MASTERY"
"Eh? Oh, yes; perfectly ture," said
Brinhley, being In lively humor, and
and determined to give his host treat.
The expression in the eyes of VII
liam Jones became even more greedy.
"P'raps," he said, you've seen some
Of them wrecks?"
"Dear me, yes" answered Brinkley,
determined to give the reins to his Inn
agination. GIVE seen any number of
them. Huge ships broken up like
match boxes and every soul on board

"Ah. yes, mister" said William
Jones, eagerly, as the other paused;
"arter-"
"well, afterward, my friend, I've
seen treasures come ashore that would
have made you and me, and dozen
Others such, rich for life"
'Dear, dearl and what became Of II,
mister-tell me that?" i' rt
"What became Of it?" repeated
Brinkley, whose imagination was be-
ginning to give way; ''why, It was ap-
propriated, OF course, by the popula-
lation."

CHAPTER VL-CoNrInUED.

= CHAPTER VL-CoNTINUED.
The old man, who, Brinkley perforce
admitted, certainly bore some resem-
blance to the Rembrandtish head
which Matt had recognized, sat doing
fitfully by the hearth, while his son
was busily employed in mending an old
lantern.
Upon the entrance of Brinkley the
lantern was quickly thrown aside, and
William Jones, assuming a most OBJ
sequious manner, hastened to give a
welcome to the stranger. Brinkley
was amused. He accepted William
Jones offer of seat, then he lit up
his brier-root pipe, and, while smoking
lazily, he put a few questions to his
host. But if he expected to gain in
formation Of any kind he was soon un-
deceived. William Jones was no fool.
Combined with excessive avarice, he
possessed all the cunning of the fox,
and the moment he saw that the
stranger was pumping him he was on
his guard.
Presently, however, his curiosity
gained the day. Categorically, in his
turn, he began TO question Brinlley
about his doings.
81 suppose now, master" said he,
''you travel about deal in that cart
o. your'n?" .....
Brinkley explained that the "cart"
in question had been in his possession
only few months.
"But travelled good deal before
got 1t" he explained. This time last
year I-was in Ireland"
SIN Ireland, master2"
"Yes, on the west coast; do you know
it?"
William Jones shook his head.
There be plenty wreck there, amt
there2" said he, suddenly.
"Wreck?" repeated Brinkley,
"Yes; I've heard tell O. wonderful
storms and big ships breaking up.
Look ye now, and they do tell wonder

getting muddled. "Well, no-Arstly,

perstitious horror of wearing dead
mems things; and, secondly, because I
could not have done so had wished.
The people are clannish; they wanted
1t all for themselves, and would have
killed any interfering stranger"
81 suppose, mister, there be coast
guard chaps there?" said William
Jones. fFEf
"0h, dear, mol No coast guards"
"Ah!" sighed the old man, coming
out Of his trance. ''It warn't so long
ago when there warn't no coast-guard
chaps here neither. Then times was
better for honest men. On q dark
night twas easy to put q light on the
h"adland, and sometimes we got q

a-dreamin', he is. There amt no
prizes here, the Lord knows; it's Almost
as much as we can do to git a bit O.
bread. Matt knows that; don't ee,
Matt?"
But whatever Matt knew she evi-
IDENTIFY meant to keep to herself, for
she gave no reply. Presently, after a
little more general conversation,
Brinlsley rose to go. He offered q
two shilling piece to William Jones;
and, somewhat to his amazement, that
worthy accepted 1t gratefully.
"Good-by, Matt" said Brinkley. But
in trice Matt was beside him.
"I'm going to show you the way"
she explained as she went out with
him into the air.
"Whewl" said Brinkley when they
were fairly clear of the cabin; "the
open air is better than that den; but
then William Jones is very poor, isn't
he, Matt2"
"He says he is"
But, don't you believe it?"
"P'raps I do, and p'raps I don't; It
don't matter to you, does it2"
mot the least in the world"
They went on for awhile in silence;
then Matt, who had been furtively
watching his face all the while, spoke
again:
"You amt angry, are you, masterP"
she asked.
81 angry-what for?"
"Cause l said that just now"
Dear me, no; whatever you might
say, Matt, wouldn't offend me-"
If he expected to please her by this
he was mistaken.
That's cause you don't care. Well,
don't care neither, If you don't"
She ran a little ahead of him, and
continued to precede him until she
gained the last sand hill, and caught a
glimpse Of the caravan. Then she
paused.
"You don't want me to 90 any
further, do you2"
"No."
"All right-good-by."
She gave bound, like a young deer,
and prepared for swift run back, but
the young man called her.
Matt, come herel"
She came up to him. lie put his arm
about her shoulders, bent over her up
turned face and kissed her. In her Ina
pulsive way Matt returned the kiss
ardently; then, to her amazement, she
gave one strange look into his eyes
blushed violently and hung her head.
Come, give me another, Matt" he
said.
But Matt would not comply. With
one jerk she freed herself from him;
then, swift as lightning, she ran back
across the hills toward the sea.
