ed admiral rendering his sword.
 Good" said the mate briefly, as one of the men took 1t.
 'Whatr' demanded Miss Runbo1t excitedly. "Ain't you goin' to fight them? Here, give me that handspike."
 Before the mate could interfere, the sailor with thoughtless obedience handed it over and Miss Rumbolt at once tried to knock him oyer the head. Being thwarted in this design by the man taking flight, she lost her temper entirely and bore down like hurricane on the remaining numbers of the crew, who were just approaching. They scattered at once and ran up the rig ging like cats and for few moments the girl held the deck, then the mate crept up behind her, and, with the air

in a somewhat constrained attitude, colored violently, and planted both feet firmly on the ground.
 "Being as was passing close in, Miss Rumbolt,' said he, ''and coming ashore to see mother"
 To the captains discomfort, manifes- tations of further attack on the part of Mir. Runbolt appeared, but were promptly quelled by the daughter.
 Mother" she repeated, encouraging-' iy.
 ''I thought I'd come on and ask you just to pay sort O flying visit to the Thames"
 ''Thank you. I'm comfortable enough where I am," said the girl.
 five got a couple of monkeys and bear aboard which I'm taking to menagerie in Aberdeen" continued the captain, land the thought struck me you might possibly like to see 'em."
 "Well, don't know" said the damsel in futter, 'is it big bear?"
 'Have you ever seen an elephant?" inquired Hezekiah, cautiously.
 'Only in pictures, replied the girl. Well, it's as big as that, nearly said he. The temptation was irresistible, and Miss Rumbolt, telling her father that she should not be long, disappeared into the house in search of her hat and jacket, and ten minutes later the 1brawny rowersl were gazing their fill Into her deep-blue eyes, as she sat in the stern of the boat, and told Lewis to behave himself P It was but .afshort pull out to the schooner, and Miss Rumbolt was soon on the deck, lavishing endearments on the monkey and energetically prod ding the bear with handspilse to make him growl. The noise of the of- fending animal, as he strove to get through the bars of his cage, was ter rife, and the girl was in the full en- joyment of it, when she became aware of a louder noise still, and, turning round, saw the seamen at the wind lass.
 Why, what are they doing?" she de- manded. Getting up anchor?"
 "Ahoy there!' shouted Hezekiah, sternly. s'What are you doing with that windlass?"
 As he spoke the anchor peeped over the edge of the bows, and one of the seamen, running past them, took the helm.
 'Now, then" shouted the fellow, ''stand by; look lively there with them sails''
 Obeying a light touch of the helm, the schooner's bowsprit slowly swung round from, the land, and the crew, hauling lustily on the ropes, began to hoist the sails
 What the devil are you up to?" thundered the skipper. "Have you all gone mad2 What does it all mean?"
 ''It means" said one of the seamen, whose fat, amiable face was marred by fearful scowl, "that we've got new skipper"
 Good heavens, mutinyl" exclaimed the skipper, starting melodramatically against the cage, and starting hastily away again. "Where's the mate9"
 He's with us." said another seaman, brandishing his sheath knife and scowling fearfully. "He's our new cap- tain"
 In confirmation of this the mate now appeared from below with an ax in his hand, and, approaching his captain, roughly ordered him below.
 'sIn defend this lady with my life," cried Hezekiah, taking the handspike from Kate and raising it above his head.
 Nobody will hurt hair of her beau tiful head," said the mate, with a ten der smile.
 ''Then yield,' said the skipper, drawing himself up and delivering up the handspike with the air of 9 defeat

Fixed School Salaries.

The school board met yesterday
afternoon and fixed salaries of
teachers for the coming term. Sal
aries were regulated according to
classification Of certificates, the
highest certificates securing high
est salaries, while the three-year
rule and grade certificates also en-
titled teachers to increase. There
was but one salary decreased, and
that was done on failure of appli-

In Twirling a Pistol.

w. H. Boyd, the colored porter
at the Blue Ribbon saloon, was ar
rested by officer Springer last
night on the charge of being dis
orderly. He was fooling with a
pistol, and showing how to twirl
the thing on his finger, when the
trigger was touched and it eX-
plOded the weapon. No damage
was done, the ball lodging some
where outside the building, but the
fact that such danger was wanton-
ly incurred by the fellow led to his
arrest and subsequent fine Of $40.

A Friend of Debs.

Editor Evening LIGHT: =
The "Daily Express" of yester-
day (23rd) prints an article headed,
"Put Them to Work." which it
credited to the Philadelphia Times.
The article says: THAT they, Debs
and his associates, live in luxury at
the expense of their deluded fol-
lowers, and create labor disturb
ances without excuse, simply to
magnify their own Importance and
assure a continued livelihood" 1t
further says, of they were COM
pelled to make an honest dollar
before they could have an honest
meal, they would be the most mis-
cradle of all our so-called working
men, and if it is the power OF the
court to sentence them to hard la
Dor it should be done. Let them
have a chance to know what it is
to do honest work" ! will say
in reply to the article. it is a
great mistake to say that they
live in luxury at their deluded fol-
lowers expense. f. V. Debs is not
that kind OF man to do that way.
Debs earns as many honest dollars
as the editor of the Philadelphia
Times. If the general managers
were sentenced to hard labor the
court would hit the right ones.
The railroads and Pullman are
more guilty Of conspiracy than
DebS. The daily papers say that
the strikers done all the rioting
and burning that was done in
Chicago during the strike. / will
venture to say that 999 out Of 1000
of the mob were toughs and hood
lums, who delight in such work.
Debs knows and performs honest
labor and earns honest money.
In conclusion l will say that the
entire article is the veriest rot.

There are woman book agents to-
day, but they are very different from
their sisters of twenty. and even ten,
years ago. They are better business
women. They are more adroit in their
methods. Their commercial instinct
is better devevoped. They are freer,
too. from the suspicion which used to
attach to the one-tiIne book agent, and
they are accepted for what they are
plain. everyday business women, whose
mission is to sell books and earn a liv-
ing.
The writer met one of the most sue
cessful of these agents recently, and
under a promise that he would not
print her name. obtained from her a
very interesting story describing her
work.
The women who sell books to-day
she said. ARE generally clever and in
tereSting. and they make the most of Il
hard occupation. say hard because
mean that it is hard-much harder than
any one supposes. We deal only in
art and literature, which we must not
only introduce on the market, but find
purchasers for, and to do this last sue
cessfully. especially when the books
are expensive, requires talent of no
mean order.
''TIundreds of women earn living
by selling books in New York. and
thousands more by the same means
throughout the country. The occupa-
ton is an honorable one. and if a
! woman is mentally fitted to enter it,
| and has the right sort of commercial
instinct. she ought to succeed. She
| should, how yer. possess good cduca-
| ton. have an accurate knowledge Of
books in general, and be able to set
forth the value Of her own particular
book in i manner that will catch the
fancy of the person to whom she pro-
| poses to sell it."

THEY CAME TOGETHER.
Prize Bull Dogs Meet Accidentally
And Have 1t Out Be-

tween Them,
The fine bred bull dogs of Geo.
Morgan, a Houston street plumber,
and of Jack Lyons, a railroad man,
came together in a fight in Mich
ael's saloon yesterday evening, the
dogs somehow getting away from
their masters and going at it in
regulation bull dog style. The
Lyons dog held out for couple of
rounds, Notwithstanding the other
dog made him look like Ferris
wheel in rapid motion, and then it
required a bucket of ice water, two
seltzer siphons and four men
to separate the batants. When
the fun was over the customers in
the saloon got down from the
tables and chairs on which they
had hastily taken refuge, the spill
ed beer was mOpped up, broken
glassware cleaned out, and the
crowd which had flocked in to hear
and see all there was to be seen,
were told that the fun was over
and the hat would not be passed
around, but they could all drink
with themselves if their collateral
| justified.

THE PRECIOUS II SEALS.

Political rascals are much like other
rascalS. They find II very hard TO perma-
nently exile themselves from the places
that have been the scenes of their crimes.
Philadelphia Record.
We fully concur in the first part Of
this proposition of our Quaker City con-
temporary. We have long maintained
that political rascals are just like the
plain, every day members of the same
profession engaged in other lines. The
people will some day learn this lesson
and profit by it.
Now. as to the second part OF the
Records suggestion. that the rascals find
it hard to permanently exile themselves"
that Is so much the worse for their
neighbors.
The country can always spare the ras-
calls, 1t matters not whether political or
otherwise. If they entertain any doubt
on this point it is easy to make a test
case, provided the result thereof Is ac-
cepted as a precedent and finality.
