A KNIGHT OF MALTA

Instead, her needle few among the
folds of gown of soft, pink wooden
material, cut by n modest seamstress,
and to be sewed by the wearers own
fingers
The little dog Florio lay coiled up
at her feet
The heap of ose-tinted draperies
marked the boundary between childish
neglect and the cares of coquettish
maidenhood She had coaXed her
grandfather to give her fresh attire
for the springtime, and the old man
had abruptly refused the request. In
dignant and rebellious, Dolores had
taken a gold chain, belonging to
her mother, to the Monte di
Pieta, pawned the trinket and returned
home in triumph with the purchase in
her arms. When would she wear it?
On the first occasion. Jacob Dealtry
made no comment, if he noticed it at
all.
Now the girl was astonished and
amused by her own reclllessness in the
bold step taken.
She glanced about her where all was
unchanged, and only she seemed to be
undergoing some subtle modification
of growth.
The fountain, with the worn urn,
and basin of weather-stained marble
filed with greenish water, was one of
the earliest recollections of her child
hood
A clump of canes grew on the brink
and struggling aquatic plant spread
broad leaves on the surface of the
water.
Nespoi and oleander, Judas, pepper,
pomegranate and fig trees formed a
patch of shade along the boundary. A
castor oil plant throve below broken
wall, set with border of bristling
cacti Yellow sprays of euphorbia and
mimosa mingled with jessamine and
myrtle. All about the girl bloomed
roses, geraniums and pea blossoms,
pink, white and purple, star-like
flowers of vivid color amid the
green. A solitary cypress tree tow
cred in a slender shaft above the wall,
and q family of white pigeons now cir
cled in flight above the parapet, and
again alighted on the shoulder OF
Dolores, or the gravel path, in search
of food, with the familiarity and con-
fdence of household pets. The parent
birds, plump, sedate, and full of digni-
fed Importance, were allowed to
preen their ridized plumage in peace,
but the grandfather ruthlessly sacri,
iced their offspring from time
TO time by popping them inte his
soup-pot, which took the place,
in his modest menage, of the
kettle of a gypsy camp. Several
bee-hives occupied nook. Other
livestock there vas none on the
premises, neither ,lucking fowl, COW
pig nor even n donkey. A lean and
wol6sh watchdog had died of old age
md had never been replaced, either
from sorrow ut his loss on the part oi
his attached master, or because Jacot
Dealtry realized he possessed nothing
.oguard.

CHAIN M AkING.
A New Method which Greatly Faciii
tates the Work.


An improvement in machines for
chain making is set forth at much
length in the Providence Journal. The
main feature is the device for forming
the links from a wire, of which any
necessary amount is carried on wheel
rotating on an adjustable mandrel hav-
ing a cross-sectional shape similar to
that of the proposed link, and as the
wire is coiled around the mandrel 1t ad-
vances along 1t. passing under saw,
which separates the coils of wire into
links. A feed device now grasps
the foremostlink and moves 1t along the
mandrel to the exact position to be TAX
en- up by the jaws of the link carriage,
the base of which is traversably mount
ed on a track in line with the link man
drel; the carriage proper is furnished
with oppositely rotatable and reciprocal
jaws, which are held in the open posi-
ton by springs, while they are closed
by lever, having a slot with inclined
sides, in which pins on the jaw frames
move-the drawing of the lever thus
tending to close the jaws together, while
the releasing allows the springs to act
so as to open the jaws and release the
link The reciprocation of the carriage
is effected by a series of novel cams
and levers Interviewing with one an
other, the rotation of the carriage and
Its jaws to exert a torsional openig OF
the link being accomplished by rack
and pinion movement.

QUEEN ClTY'S DREAM.
work Commenced ON the Lake wash
ington Canal.


Seattle. July 3I.-Work ON the Lake
Washington canal and the filling in of
the tide flats began this morning at
11:3O O'Clock, when Miss Zoe Semple,
daughter of Ex-Governor Eugene Sem
ple. started the machinery of the
dredger Anaconda, stationed at the end
of the east waterway. The occasion
was one of public rejoicing. and as the
sand appeared at the end of the dis
charge pipe 2,700 feet away, it was
welcomed with cheers, music by a
band, and noisy blasts from steamboat
and factory whistles. Appropriate ex-
ercises We're held on the dredger, and
also at the end of the pipe line.
The enterprise, which is being car
ried out by the Seattle q Lake Wash
ington Waterway Company with the
state, includes the excavation of two
waterways in the tidelands of Elliott
bay, one mile long and 900 feet wide,
and of a canal which is an extension
of one of them to admit ships to Lake
Washington. The lake canal will be
cut one mile through tide flats, and
two miles through the upland in which
it will pierce one Hill 308 feet, and an
other IA feet high. 1t will be 80 feet
wide at the bottom, and 26 feet deep
at low tide, and will have a lock at
the outer end large enough for ocean
steamers. The purpose of making the
canal at this point is to have it directly
connected with the present water front
facilities of the city, and to secure ma
terial for filling III / ,525 acres of tide
lands at the head of Elliott bay.
The work is expected to occupy five
years and to cost $1,000, 900, towards
which the citizens have raised sub
sidy of 100000. The capital is fur
nished by ST. Louis men, headed by
Henry Semple Ames and Edgar Ames.

Heavy Bank Deposits.

London, July 3O.-The Times this
morning has a letter commenting on
the enormous increase of private de-
posits in the Bank of England and
says: The money that the syndicates
formerly put into foreign investments
has been kept in hand. Good author
tiles estimate that up to 1892 English
capitalists were accustomed to invest
80, 900, 900 pounds yearly in America,
chiefly in railroad stocks.
But for the uneasiness induced by
the American monetary system, I'M
doubtedly it would be reinvested in
America. now that business is percep-
tibly improving there, but the defects
of the system still remain, and these
cautious persons will refrain until they
are remedied. The positive rush both
in England and Europe to lend money
in China proves the desire for good in
vestments.

of July Lewis Farmer and his wife,
who run a small store about two miles
from here, were murderously assaulted
and left for dead, after which their
store was robbed. Later developments
seem to fasten the lynching Oh the real
culprits, since it is learned that the old
negro Burwell was promised reward
to ferret out the guilty parties. This
became known to those concerned in
the Farmer outrage, and they are
thought to have made away with Bur-

WAR IN MACEDONIA.
Turkish Troops Defeated and Their
Quarters Burned.


London, July 30.-The correspond

says:
''The Macedonians, after sharp
conflict with the Turkish troops, have
captured Nevrcop. The victors burned
the telegraph station and the Turkish
quarters.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Chronicle says:
According to the statement OF the
ROumanian minister at Constantine
pie, many insurgents IN Macedonia
were found to be Russian officers. The
porte intends to send the documents
found in their possession to the powers
as proof that the Macedonian uprising
is due to Russian agents and money
The Chronicle also had an editorial
on the above information, with regard
to affairs in the Balkans, as menacing
the peace of Europe. 1t says:

except by summOning another congress.
Failing in this, we may expect atroci-
ties in Macedonia and Albania.

They Cling to Confucius.

Pittsburg July 3l.-Rev. DR.. Dona-
hoe, pastor of the Eighth Presbyterian
church of this city, and who has been
idnetitied with Chinese mission work
for years, in an interview today says
that he believes the efforts to convert
Chinese from paganism are futile. He
says that although the Cinnamon go to
Sunday school, and seem to take an in
terest i'll the Christian religion, and
even profess Christianity, yet they
cling to their heather ideas and cere-
monies. Rev. DR.. Donahoe is looked
upon as the leader and adviser of the
resident Chinese, and went to Wash
ington in their interest when the Geary
law was enforced. His opinion has
been formed only after years of study
of the Chinese. He does not intend to
give up the missionary work in this
line. He believes that while the Chi
nese cannot be converted TO Christian
ity, they can be raised TO high social
level by religious influence.
