The Nnites iuo.. = Isrt in the Fight
Against CASTOR.


ATLANTA, Ga, Sept. e.-Gaston's negro
deportation scheme is broken up, ternpoP-
arily at least, in Hancock county. Castor
himself has pistol ball in his head,
Crawford Holsey has broken thigh and
Isaac Dickson will die from wounds which
he received in the fight on Monday night.
Anna jenkins, wife of the man who led
the opposition TO CASTOR, Is badly hurt
The fight was altogether among the ne
groes, and the whites had nothing to do
with 1t.
Dan Jenkins, a leading negro of Han
cock county, told his people that CASTOR
was deluding them, and that his enigra-
tion scheme was swindle. This in
eensed Castor and his lieutenants, and
| they threatened jenkins.
CASTOR, who was formerly in Atlanta
and worked up deportation scheme, has
been in Hancock county for three or four
months. He collected 81 from every man,
woman and child enrolled as "a colenist
| for Liberia. He is plausible talker, and
had 5000 of his race pledged. Time and
again he appointed day for the depart
ure, but when the time arrived CASTOR
was somewhere else.
After frequent disappointments some
OF the emigrants began to believe what
jenkins ana tnelr Whlte Irlends had tolu
them. But 1t was too late. They had
sold their property. CASTOR had part oi
the money and the balance they had spent.
Some of them became desperate, aud "A
number of them armed themselves and
called on Gas ton for the purpose Of hay
ing him refund their money. CASTOR raj,
lied number of negroes to his assistance
and battle ensued
The planters sympathized with Jen-
kins, who was working for the best inter.
ests OF his people. This fact has been dis
torted into active participation by the
| whites in Monday nlghtls fight.

ly to get the better of his discretion was
at its height. He began to tell her i'm
pulsively, passionatcly, before he fully
realized it.
She turned so white and speechless
that his heart almost ceased beating.
The thought that he had ut last uttered
the irrevocablc, fatal words came to
him too late to prevent the utterance of
his hope and his longing, but not too
late to make the flow of his eloquence
tremble and die on his lips. He became
as mute as she and almost as pale For
moment they stood close together by
the window, in the fading light from
tho western sky, looking into each 9TH
er's eyes with n mutual terror.
IL have frightened you," stam-
mcred Maxey.
An undeniable fact, but it was all the
artist could think to say at that mo-
ment
Still he could not stand inactive He
sought to take the dainty hand which
timidly shrank from tho contact. He
grew moro persistent when he encoun-
tered opposition and concentrated all his
energies on the capturing of the trem-
bling member. In another moment it
was his. Then, with sudden boldness
which astonished even himself, he drew
her close, close to him.
He felt her startled heart beating, as
if it would break, next TO his. The I'M
seen hand raped upon the window, but
it had no longer any interest or any ter
ror for them.
''Oh, Mr. Maxey, let me goi''
No; we must undortand each other
first Tell me that am fool or q cow
ard, and l will. -
She made him no reply. She strug-
gled little with her baby strength and
gave 1t up. She was very quiet. +
But still the frightened heart beat
wildly close to his. She had not spoken.
Softly the artist bent down to look
into her aycrtcd face There was neither
anger nor tears there-only the paleness
and the terror i
The two hearts We're throbbing now
in unison. 1t was getting dark.
Annette, he whispered, "call me
cowardr'
She answered him at last in voice
that was so low and hushed that it hard
ly sounded natural:
II have no right to tell lie, and
have no right to mix my life with yours.
You are young, ambitious, ric&~with
future / have not-not oven name"
No; l am not rich Annette. You are
mistaken, and, depend upon it, your
name will be known some day, and it
will be as good as mine But what is
that to me? What if you really had no
name? 1 love you for yourself, Annette,

Tor JUST mere q coufguration in the wall
gave whirling motion to the water
The floating block that drifted too near
this spot was inevitably drawn in, and
once in there it staid, pounded up and
down, up and down against the mason
ry and the decaying piles till it was
melted quite away.
1t was dark and mysterious recess
this little section of the river beneath
the artists windows. Somehow the
building stood about it in such way as
to cut off the sunlight, except perchance
at high noon. 1t was always gloomy
close to the wall. Even vihen the river
sparkled brightest in the smiling sum-
mer days, just in here there was drea-
ry spot. Here the water swirled and did
not dance in little waves. Here. too,
had once been the end of wharf or
wooden structure of some kind. A few
of the venerable timbcrs yet remained
imbedded firmly i'll the rivers bottom
The blackened ends, projecting above
the surface, deepened the somber and
forlorn effect
The house in which Maxey lived did
not rise directly from the river wall. 1t
stood back and left little space-a
mean and parsimonious space-utilized
only by housewives for the hanging out
of clothes. A high picketed fence pre-
vented the contiguity of the river from
being dangerous.
Occasionally the janitor of the build
ing, who was supposed to have protect
ing eye for all that appertained to it,
emerged from the basement where he
lived into the yard to cast about him a
reassuring glance. One morning in De-
cember, when he came trifing altora-
ton in the familiar prospect caught his
attention and aroused his wonder. The

CHAPTER XIV.
TIME AND TIDE

More than once in the course of this
history it has been mentioned that tho
windows of the artist s chambers looked
out upon river. In truth, it was almost
impossible to be anywhere in Maxey's
rooms and escape its presence. He had
chosen his suit for the free, open pros
pect it afforded, and he had sketehed and
painted a landscape from this lofty situ-
alton dozen times. 1t mattered not in
what part of the house one was, there
was always something to remind him of
the river.
The sweeping curve made by tho
stream just above the center of the city
broadened the otherwise narrow belt of
water into a lakclike expanse and opened
q vista Of miles to the eye. Over this
wide surface the wind came and went
unopposed. 1t was ever rattling at tho
windows of the artist rooms. To awake
of winters night and hear the uneasy
ghost tapping with his chill hand for
admission was to be reminded of the icy
water flowing steadily with the tide
down between the great stone walls i'll
the darkness.
The tide rose and fell in the river for
miles above the city. In the dead of
winter it lifted the solid white surface
like marble floor, through 10 feet
twice day. After thaw, when tho
ice broke up, even in MaXey's rooms,
could be heard the great blocks grind
ing against the stones. These floating
masses drifted variously, as the tide ran
back up the stream, to crowd the mar
row space between the banks above the
sweeping curve or down beneath the
bridges and between the hulls of innu-
merable vessels out to sea- Only in the
space contiguous to the house i'll Dalla-
voine place they remained stationary,

IN SENATE AND HOUSE.
Not n Vote Taken In the Senate on the
Tariff Bill,

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE small crowd
in the galleries of the house yesterday was
well repaid for its atte dance, for at times
the proceedings wei interesting in the
extreme. While but ten pages of the bill
were read some very interesting discus
sions We're precipitated, notably one by
Mr.. Smith, Of Arizona, relative to tho
education of Indians, and especially the
Apaches, at the Indian schools of the east.
In the course of his speech he said that II
was possible to kidnap Indian boys and
girls and send them to school at Carlisle
and Hampton, but they would wander
back to the reservation and become worse
than they were before. The A. Z. A. mat
ter was again brought up and caused a
slight ripple on the surface OF the house,
but it blew over after n short pa sage nj
arms between Mr.. Linton and Mr.. Wea-
dock, both of Michigan. An unusually
large number of bills reached final pass.
age, among them being three senate bills.
Again yesterday the entire session OF
the senate was consumed with set speeches
on the free wool question. The tcmpera
ture in the chamber was stifiingly hot,
and the senators spoke to empty benches
on the floor and few listless auditors in
the galleries. Altogether it was one OF
the dullest and most wearisome days OF
the long three months debate. Not a
vote was taken.
