him shall call to pay my respects to-
morrow"
The chief of the sixty-lrst division bowed
obsequiouslv.
Then James Peruke went out into the street
and hailed hanson.
"Drive to Ill Mud court said he to the
driver, and away ratified the cab to its desti-
nation.
All this time Margaret Mullins was quietly
pursuing her household voeations, uncon-
scious of the great events that were transpir-
ing.
Suddenly the door was flung violently
open and in came James, the seventeenth
inspector of the royal inkstand. breathless,
exultant, happy. In a trice the situation was
explained and the necessity for prompt action
plainly seen. The cab was waiting outside
and Margaret ran upstairs to put on her
bonnet and came back looking so sweet and
blushing so prettily that James Peruke felt n
tremulous thrill run down his spinal column
and come out at the tips of his fingers and
toes.
And now a cloud began to settle over the
household and person Of Solomon Boggs.
Day after day went by, yet James-Japes
who was to marry Elizabeth-did not come
The old gloom and melancholy settled over
everytt ing. Pennyboy renewed his purpose
OF going into the tobacco business and began
to make inquiries for a suitable shop.
Again and again did Mr.. Boggs go up to
the office of the seventeenth inspector Of the
royal inkstand, but an infiexible attendant
said that Mr.. Peruke was engaged and could
not be interrupted under any circumstances.
The first function any was in despair.
Finally the Daily Termagent came out with
a graphic account Of Gorgeous reception

Mr.. B0ggs' DaUghter.

Without his red necktie Solomon Boggs
would have been insignificant, if not an ab-
solute nonentity, but with it he became at
once pompous, bold, and aggressive. Inyol-
unfairly his chest expanded beneath it until
it stuck out like drum-major's. and the
whole splendid aggregation OF necktie, shirt
front and bosom rose and fell with deep SELL
satisfied undulations.
Decidedly Solomon Boggs. with his toilet
duly performed by his valet and his commits
sion first functionary to the lord mayor
reposing snugly in his coat pocket. was a
person upon whom the awe-struck looks Of
ordinary people were bestowed with the more
reason, as none of them ever saw him in the
privacy of his chamber, existing without his
teeth and his hair. and his left eye and his
red necktie.
Another fact that went long way with the
ordinary people, was that Solomon Boggs, be-
sides his honorable position and the emolu-
ments incidental thereto. was the possessor of
a vast amount of property. He had SO many
houses that he had TO employ three agents to
collect the rents and look after the repairs and
abuse the tenants, all his own spare time being
consumed in his efforts to have his taxes re-
duced about half what they should have been
in the regular order OF things.
The house which he himself inhabited was
a very wonderful structure of iron and stone
and brass. altogether suitable as a place of
residence for a man of his exalted station and
means. being finished inside most exquisitely
and equipped with every modern contrivance
for making existence endurabe and giving
employment to plumbers and bell hangers,

charge from their situations. Pennybov, the
chief clerk, whose duty it was to do all the
work that should have been done by Mr..
Boggs himself and to scatter over his desk
every morning huge mass Of papers to make
it look as though the first functionary was
terrific man of business, began to think seri-
ously of resigning voluntarily. to save him.
self the pain Of a dismissal, and of establish
ing with his savings a small cigar stand on
the corner.
Pennyboy and Mr.. Boggs had at one time
got along capitally together but the former
having let out in an unguarded moment that
he was already married man and the father
of twins, their intimacy had drifted into cool
ness with the greatest rapidity.
Ina secluded street where lodgings were to
be obtained ut ridiculousiy low figure, and
where the principal features of the landscape
consisted Of washed clothes hung out to dry
and clouds of SCOT emanating from the Chin
neys, lived James Peruke.
Right across the court from James Peruke
lived Margaret Mullins, and between them
there existed a romantic feeling that belonged
to sylvan groves and babbling brooks, and
was entirely out of place in such locality
James Peruke belonged to that unfortunate
class OF persons who are poor but proud. He
held very inferior position in the office Oft the

trade where he conscientiously performed
the tasks of nineteen high officials. who on
their parts lent tone of dignity to the Office

being the only drawback to its happy con-
summation. 1t was an affection that had
been cemented by years of close companion

at which noble persons were present in great
numbers. Solomon Boggs read it while he
was at breakfast and swooned. As soon as
he came to his senses he hastened to tho
honorable the secretary of the coastwise trade
and demanded that James Perukes commits
sion be revoked.
The honorable secretary looked grave. He
was afraid it couldn't be done. The appoint
ment had been made and confirmed, and the
occupant of such high Office as that Of
seventeenth inspector of the royal inkstand
could not be tampered with. 1t would be too
dangerous. Then he dropped his voice to
confidential whisper and spoke OF unpopular
acts. Really it was matter in which he must
decline to interfere.
With an aching heart, Solomon Boggs with
drew and turned his steps in the direction OF
his own place of business.
''What are you doing, sir?' he demanded
fiercely of Pennyboy on his arrival.
Nothing in particular. sir" said Pennyboy
in much trepidation.
Mr. Boggs giared at him savagely.
Nothing in PARTICULAR he howled, shifting
his desk with his fist. "You are always doing
nothing in particular. Do you suppose that
YOU are gong to draw your salary for doing
nothing in particular? Get out of here, siri"
Pennyboy ruefully retired. 1t had come at
last. but the shock was greater than he had
anticipated.
When he had gone, Mr.. Boggs sat down in
his chair and Groaned.
As for the seventeeth inspector Of the royal
inkstand, he remained in the enjoyment Of
his high office and generous salary. the actual
inspection of the inkstand being attended to
by an intelligent boy of nine years who
washed it ont and refllled it every morning,
and was paid sixpence a week for doing se.-

outrageous fortune. Often and often had
impossible schemes for getting along in the
world been proposed by James, and others
equally impossible by Margaret but their very
impossibility rendered them fruitless.
Ii was while affairs were in this state. In
the widely different spheres of James Peruke
and Solomon Boggs, that chance brought
them into contact with each other.
Mr.. Boggs. having attended a meeting of
the committee on pros and cons, was walk
ing home in very bad humor when he
chanced to get his foot wedged in between
two paving-stones so tightly that he could
not draw it out again.
James Peruke happened along and, seeing
the predicament, hastened to lend his
assistance and soon succeeded in setting the
foot free again. for which act of kindness Mr..
Boggs bestowed smile upon him and then,
acting upon the constant impulse which DOS
sessed him, invited him to his house to take
dinner and meet his daughter.
James being a gentleman, albeit poor,
bowed with much grace and accepted.
The acquaintance thus formed grew apace
and it was not long before he was regular
visitor at the house of the first functionary
and was thoroughly posted about everything
therein, including Miss Elizabeth Boggs. As
the frequency Of his visits increased the heart
of Solomon Boggs beat high with hope. His
demeanor was no longer fierce. Slowly but
surely the fish was nibbling at the hook, and
it was only a matter of care, prudence and
time when it should be successfully landed
But all this time the heads of James Peruke
and Margaret Mullins were filled with wild
and desperate scheme.
James, when he visited Miss Boggs. assumed
a lover-like familiarity. He uttered tender
nothings. He allowed. his hand to stray idly

PAY DAYS In THE "STRIP"
Seven Million Dollars Being Dis
tributed Among CherOkees.
MONEY FOR BABIES AND ALL
Story Of the Tribe and Its Relations with the
National Government-Driven from Pillar
to Post President Martin Van Buren,
Finally Came to the Rescue.

The payment of $1,000, 900 to the Cherokee
Indians by the government for the famous
Cherokee strip is now in progress. The dis
tribution of the money began at Tahlequah,
the Cherokee capital, on June 4. and will be
until August 6, when nearly 81, 900 900 in cash
will have been distributed among "a, $3.50 peo-
ple-men, women. and children.
No matter how old or how young no mat
ter whether he has one drop Of Cherokee
blood or is full-blooded Cherokee,
every person in the tribe gets the same
S265.70. In the light of this information il
doesn't take a far-sighted person to see why
more than 500 babies have been born in the
Cherokee Nation within q year; it doesn't
take far-sighted person TO see why hundreds
OF white men have married Cherokees.
Some time in April an accurate census Of
the Cherokees was taken. Then the chief
said: AL whose names are not now on this
list must present their claims at once, for only
those whose names are written down will be
paid"
Those who hadn't given in their names did
so. Babies were christened in haste, and
their names went ON the list. Chief Harris
tells the story of man who rode into Table,
quah out of breath an hour before the books
closed and said between gasps that son had
been born to him.
"What is his namef"
ale has meme yet"
He must have one to go on the books.
What shall 1t be?'

So little John Thompson went on the books
and the other day his half-breed papa drew
the money for his baby boy.
The Cherokee nation of 100000 acres is
divided into nine districts. Here they are
with their population:

But there was. in spite of all this magnif-

But there was, in spite of all this magnifi-
cence. a thorn in the flesh of Solomon Boggs.
He had daughter.
This fa,t considered in the abstract, should
be regarded rather as blessing than other
wise. But when it is taken into considera-
ton that this young lady was rs homely as
baldheaded pheasant and had lived, in spite
OF her money. to the mature age of seven and
thirty without suIor for her hand, the
chaSrin OF Mr.. Solomon Boggs can be under
stood.
Therefore, when Solomon Boggs went down
to his office 10 pick his teeth in his capacity
OF first functionary, he generally bore heavy
heart along with him. During the day he
was frequently occupied with schemes for the
disposal of his daughter in marriage, and saw
in every man he met a possible son-in-law.
who would lift from his soul the burden that
oppressed it.
But up to the thirty-seyenth year of his
daughters existence the only man who had
wooed her was a gentleman from Mexico.
who, just in the nick Of time. was found to
possess three other wives.
Beautifyiny compounds of every description
had been applied to the unresponsive count
enance of Miss Elizabeth Boggs without the
faintest shadow of success. The vendors of
the compounds, fearing that some harm
might be done to the reputation of their
wares. sought to defend them by saying that
they couldn't be expected to turn witch into
Venus. and went about with the air of per-
sons who had been deeply injured and whose
confidence had been abused
So tormente1 and irritated did Mr.. Bopcs
become that little by little his subordinates
became filed with fear and uneasiness. and
scarcely ventured to raise their eyes before
him lest they should call down upon them

mally as he spoke Of the tremendous distance
that separated him from her. All this was
duly impaired by Miss Elizabeth to her father,
and he agreed with her that the only thing
that prevented an avowal on the part OF
James Peruke was delicate recognition of his
poor estate. Decidedly that obstacle must be
removed word to the honorable the secre-
tary of the coastwise trade from his friend
the first functonary of the lord mayor, would
set everything to rights.
''Your ear, my lord" said Solomon Boggs
OF the first opportunity, and, as result of
what he whispered into it, the assistant Sec
retary haded bulky document to the GUS
todan of seals and impressions, who put a
stamp on it. and handed it in his turn to the
chief of the sixty-flrst division. The chief of
the sixty-frst division Immediately waited
upon James Peruke, who sat at his desk copy
ing a report submitted by the commander of
the Ninth Brigade to the first lord OF the
shot tower, and informed him that he had
been created seventeenth inspector of the
royal inkstand He impaired this informa-
ton with a magnificent bow, and, drawing
forth the commiss IN, duly sealed and sub
scribei presented it.
Seventeenth inspector Of the royal ink
stand!
For a moment James Peruke's head swan,
and he was entirely unable to grasp the situa-
ton 1t was so immeasurably above his
highest expectations. The chief of the sixty
first division himself was a veritable pigmy in
comparison.
As soon as he could collect his senses James
started to ask the chief il he might absent
himself for the day. but remembering the
station he now held he looked bored instead,
and remarked:

The Gold Question.

EDITOR TINES: Coincident with yesterdays S
drop in wheat were further large Withdrawals
OF gold for export, Messrs. Lazard Freres took
81 600. 900. MeSsrs. Heidelbach. Ickelheimer Il
Co. =. .000. 900. Messrs. Ladenburs. Thalmann
& Co. $500. 900. and Messrs kidier. Peabody
Il Co.. of Boston, $500. coo. making for the
day SS.000.000.
The greater part of this gold was Withdrawn
from the sub-treasury. as a result or which
the Treasury gold is reduced below $50 .000.-
06O the lowest point on record. No uneasi-
ness is manifested in banking circles over
the steady reduction in the reserve, for bank
ers feel that the government can at any time
issue bonds.
As prominent bank,president said: "The
banks have plenty OF gold which they are will
ing TO lend the government on fair terms.
Secretary Carlisle if necessity arises has only
to make a new loan. The banks will sub
scribe TO it." 1t is highly probable that yes
terday's engagements of gold will be suppl ie-
mented by further Withdrawals to-day.
Europe is draining the Treasury, the Treas
urv will replenish from the banks, then Eu-
rope again drains the Treasury, then the
Treasury again replerishes from the banks
and so it will go on until there will be no gold
j, either the Treasury or the banks. then the
United States of America will be on u footing
with the Republic of Mexico, and have to pay
in silver the same as Mexico is now doing, 81
for every 81 of Indebtedness. With the depre-
citation of values. the appreciation of gold
will soon make itself manifest in the United
States of America, the same as in other debtor
countries.
