I imagine who could have been his de-
/ liverer.
"He is a noble fellow. at least, ="
said Adolf lie did not even wait for
my thanks.
"And mine" added Vivette.
Adolf looked "a her as closely
as his unspectacled eyes would
permit, to learn what were the
true feelings which prompted this
honest and feeling expression of
thanks for his delivery. But not even
Lewis best gold-rimmed glasses would
have enabled him to learn more than
her words expressed.
HE must have been a strong swim
mer," said Vivctte
Yes; fine, strong, noble looking
man; swan like Sandwich islander. "
Strange he did not wait to receive
our thanks" said Vivette.
''Do you know, Vivette, those words,
our thanks give me delight? l can
delay no longer, my dearest Vivette; l
offer you my hand with my heart,
which you already have. BE my wife
mine forever-and l know we shall
be very happy"
Then seeing her start as il surprised,
he feared to have a reply at that mo-
ment, and added:
"Not now, dearest Vivette, / do not
press for an answer now. Take time
to consider; and should you finally say
no, l had better have persisted in the
beautiful Ohio"
my dear cousin, thank you for not
pressing this offer now. l appreciate
it, believe me. But you VIII not press
it now?"
IF you wish il. dear Vivettc, can
wait; but my happiness and that of
your father whom you love depend
upon your answer"
And mine said Vivettc signifi-
cantlv.
Adolf was pcrplexcd and troubled at
the tone of these words, which ex-
pressed more than had been intended;
but he could only wait, and he re-
solved to abide the effect of time, and
trust his fate. This was just what
Vivette wished of all things. She did
not wish to fatty refuse her cousin S

knew from the first she should never
accept it. Now she could wait events
without committing herself in any
way and she felt relieved.
The Gazette next morning gave a
full account of tn" steamboat excur-
sion. and of the accident 10 Hon.
Adolf Molier of New Orleans" who
had been 80 gallantly rescued by
Mr.. Joseph Gust, a wcll-known and
rising young lawyer of the city"
Here was complication! Vivette
was first in the house to get hold OF
the Gazette; and unable to suppress
her surprise aud pleasure, she
was proceeding with bcaming
face to show the paper TO her

happy face and asked what delighted
her So For moment only she hest
tated. then with her wonted ingenious
courage she handed the Gazette to
Adolf and ran off TO conceal her face.
without sitting down Adolf read the
whole account of the excursion expect
ing to find something pleasing until he
read of his own rescue at the hands of
his hated rival, Joseph Gust. Then he
stamped in mad fury, swearing he
would rather have died in the water
than to have been saved by that man!
"Of course the scoundrel knew me and
did it only toShumiliate me. Icertainly
did not know him without hat or coat
my glasses being gone and my eyes
full of water, and / hope he did not
know me, for the same reason. But il
is cursed luck all round"
Then he hurried off to confer with
Old Charley--he never thought of,going
to Vivette: that was little too much.
But Old Charley was not a bit sur
prised. He had from the first sus-
pected from the account given by Adolf
and Vivette, brief as that was, that
the rescuer was no other than Joe
Gust"
"Please read that, uncle" said Adolf,
handing the paper TO Molier Senior,
and pointing out the article in the
Gazette. Old Charley Molier read the
whole account deliberately through.
Then he said composedly:

Word of their condition was brought
TO Queen Dido in her palace, and she
gave immediate orders that her people

He had sister, the Princess Dido,
who was married to a man of immense
wealth. a worthy nobleman of Tyre,
named Slchaeus. You might think that
a king would be glad to have the
friendship and support of a man Of
that kind, especially in that far-away
time, when thrones rested. at best, upon
somewhat shaky foundations, but Pyg-
malion was so pulled up with is own
Importance and so confident of his pow
er, that he sometimes 'lost his head"

everything else in his nature-the love
Of gold, and he was in the habit of
overriding anything that might stand
In the way of acquiring 1t.
In spite, therefore, of his close rela-
tionship TO Sichaeus, of the love that
he should have felt, but did not. for his
beautiful sister, the Princess Dido, he
determined to become possessed or the
wealth of Sichaeus, and to that end he
had him put to death.
But the widowed Dido managed to

The natives received her with many
manifestations of friendship, and when
she asked them for only so much ground

to dismay. and then to downright ad-

shrewd princess had interpreted hel

her own head; but when the natives

very fine strips. and then tied together
into very long string. With this string
she and her followers managed to in
close a pretty good-sized piece OF
ground, upon which they at once built
a citadel as the nucleus of a town.

Representative Livingstone Springs ResO-
luton Concerning Venezuela.
tNGLAND's ACTION DECLARED UNFRlENDLY
House Listens to the Reading of the
Presidents Message and After
Ordering IL Printed Ad-
journs to Friday.

| WASHINGTON, Dec. 3-The first move
ment in congress upon the Venezuelan boun-
| dary dispute came today in the form Of reso-
! luton introduced in the house by Representa-
| tive Livingston of Georgia. whose name has
| been somewhat identified with the question
! by reason OF his resolution recommending ar
bi;ration, which was adopted by the last con-
| gress. and his recent visit TO Venezuela.
The resolution recites that by resolution
| OF the last congress 1t was recommended that
the boundary dispute be submitted to arbi-
| tration. that the action was brought to the
attention of her Britannia majesty's govern
ment by the president courteously and with
kindly intent, and declares that her majesty's
government has failed to give the prompt
consideration to the important request con-
tanned in that joint resolution or to answer
the same in any manner such as was due and
becoming to the dignity of the United States
as great nation and to the friendly rela-
tions existing between the two governments" !"
The resolution also recites that after this
communication the colonial sscretary in
structed the government of British Guiana
to take forcible possession of certain terri
tory of Venezuela involved in the dispute,
IAN act which has been officially declared to
be the manifestation of an unfriendly d.sposi-
tion toward the United States
In conclusion 1t provides for joint COM
mittee of two senators and three members Of
the house to investigate the facts and recon-
mend proper action to congress to vindicate
and preserve the dignity and rights of the
United States in the premises.
The excitement and confusion attending
the opening session of the house yesterday
had almost entirely vanished when that body
met at noon today. The crowds in the gal
leries had thinned out, the flowers had dis
appeared, members l'lled and chatted easily
in their revolving chairs, and the house as
sumsd something like a normal appearance.
Rev. Fl. N. Coudon, the new chaplain of
the house, and blind Universalist preacher
from Port Huron, Mich. delivered the in
vocation after Speaker Reed had raped the
msmbers to order.
Mr.. Payne, republican OF New York, chair
man OF the committee appointed to wait
upon the president, reported that Mr.. Cleve-
land had sent his respectful situations to
congress, and would communicate in writ
ing Immediately thereafter Mr.. Pruden the
presidents executive clerk, appeared with
the message, which the speaker forthwith
laid before the house. AS the clerk COM
menced its reading the house became quiet
and the members listened, some intently but
all respectfully, to the words of the chief
executive.
Five thousand copies of the message were
ordered printed after which, at $50 p. m.
on motion of Mr.. Payne, republican of New
York, the house adjourned until Friday

tor Murphy said there could be no doubt
of speedy confirmation. He did not believe
that Senator Hill would make any oppos!-

pressed satisfaction with the selection.
Judge Peckham is known to the mem
bers OF the court through his decisions and
is highly esteemed in that quarter. He ap-
peared before the court on several occa-

young man, ha is still remembered for his
