AN EoUIvocAL POSITION.

The managers residence at the Big
Horn is the first house above the bridge,
where the wagon road joins the trail
1t has high gallery across the second
story front, overlooking the gulch,
which is reached by long windows from
the rooms opening upon it, and by an
outside staircase from the ground. The
gallery forms the roof of ce-
ment-hoored porch in front of
ing lounging-place for the men
employed at the mine when they
are fortunate enough to be on good
terms with Miss Steers. the managers
housekeeper.
On the night of Mr.. Bingham's deten-
ton at the Black Dwarf, two friends OF
Miss Steers and several friends of
theirs were sitting on chairs tipped
back against the house wall, under the
shadow of the gallery, talking in low
voices and not smoking, an unusual
precaution, denoting secrecy. They
ceased speaking as soon as horses feet
were heard approaching, but conclud-
ing that, as they came by way of the
trail it must be the manager returning
home with his daughter, they did not
trouble TO look out.
The moon was shining on the wet
roofs, sheening them with silver; the
tamarack timber up the gulch supplied
the contrast of pitch-blackness broad
ened by impenetrable masses of shad-
ow. Cleans from the house-lights re-
vealed the figures of two young people
who had dismounted and were parting
at the foot of the gallery stairs.

WEALTH FROM wREcKAGE,
The singular Grade which BrouEhf
Fortune 10 Two Brook-
syu nrothers.

The recent death in Brooklyn of Will
liam Hinman recalls an interesting
phase of coast life Of half century ago.
The dead mans father, also n William
llnman. was born in the country place
where his eldest son is buried. 4 coun-
try village was too small for him, and
he settled in Brooklyn about 60 years
ago. With his brother, he started in
singular business, which made them
both wealthy in n comparatively few
years. and when. at about the break-
ing out of the civil war, each found him-
self the possessor of what. in those
times, was considered a burdensome
amount of wealth, they retired from ne
tive work. although each was in the sun
time of life.
Almost all of the silk. cotton and
wooden fabrics used in the country
then were imported from Europe In
sailing vessels. the number of steam
ships trailcking the Atlantic being in
considerable. The sparsely settled
south side of Long island had among
its denizens many desperately bad and
| bold men. whose chief source of none
tary supply was the profits which came
| from saving the cargoes of incoming
vessels wrecked on the beach. Life
/ saving crews were unknown in those
days: pilots were few in number, and

| Wrecks were numerous between the
Shinnecock hills and Rockaway inlet,
and the prizes cast up by the sea were
varied and valuable. From these the
elder Humans selected carefully and
purchased those which women could
buy. Dress goods, linens. cottons, fan"
nels, napkins, table cloths, bed cover
ings bolts of cloth, anything, in fact,
in the line of textiles were what they
readily brought. With the men who ac-
quired this stuff they had no relations
except as buyers and sellers, and their
interests terminated with each trans
action.
Usually they were the first TO hear
that there was a desirable lot of ar
ticles strewn along the ocean shore,
and frequently before they left Brook
lyn to gather up the goods they would
announce that on certain near-at-
hand day they would put on safe an al

them from New York, and also from
Jersey City, for their store was on the
corner of Fulton and Columbia streets
a short stones throw from the Fulton
ferry landing.
As the city grew their trade grew

ness place TO Fulton and Sands streets

THE APPARENT REASON.
She Readily Accounted for the Con-
stant Wearing of the
HalOA.

Dotty sat on stool beside her mother
looking at the pictures in an old church
book. There were angels and cherubim
and harplsts galore, and in them the child
found much to interest her. The last pic,
ture in the book was of a dozen or more
angels floating on the clouds. Above the
head Of each shone the symbolic halo. Those
halos bothered Dotty. She had never seen
such head dress and she was perplexed.
After minutes thought she held the book
up to her mother and said: 'See, mamma,
the ladies what's got wings and funny things
The. mother looked. "Those are angels,
dear" she said.
And what's the funny rings on their
heads, mammal" the child asked
Those are halos, Dotty."
Does they wear them always mamma
Does all angels wear them?"

they wear them all the time"

ABYSSINIAN TROOPS.

Hut They Never Wash
Themselves.

The Abyssinian soldiers ordinary

sists of a white linen shirt down to his
knees and pair of tight linen trousers
to halfway down his calf. Over this
he wears belt of folded linen and, as
rule, "shamma," or white cotton

that they rapidly assume dingy
brown hue, and as no native ever

large body of men is not precisely
pleasing. No shoes, stockings or head
Coverings are worn. The officers and
all who can afford it wear shamma
with broad red stripe, called n
"jano," and on high days and festive
occasions all varieties of clothes are
produced, of all colors of the rainbow.
Cloaks of blue, red, green, yellow or
violet, oranmented with rough EN-
broidery, leopard skins, sheep skins
and even lion skins, are worn ON such
days by the officers and small chiefs,
and on these occasions the army pre-
sents a noble show.
Any man who has killed lion or an
elephant, or has distinguished himself
much in battle, wears an aureole of
lions name on his head, and for each
five men he has killed he wears silver
band on his sword scabbard. The
highest recompense for valor is
sort of velvet top hat ornamented
with silver and great officers are given
shields covered with velvet and orna.
mented with gold or silver. The
swords are worn on the right-hand
side and are very much curved, almost
sickle-shaped, and sharpened on both
edges. These are used for everything
from killing people down to cutting
off mouthfuls of beefsteak. The rifles

skin is of the color of mud, and their
features ndhair are distinctly negro,

all concealment in one tragic look.
Ibid you ever hear of such thing as

II may say I've never heard of any

"Oh, but not like this!"
"Why, if it's possible at all, there's
no reason it shouldn't happen anywhere

breath quickly, sitting a sob. 'Mr.

pause. Faiths eyes searched his face
and Darcie trembled, looking down. He
was very handsome, standing before
her on his manhood under her pure
testing eyes; but she saw now only
what she was seeking for-the truth in
him. though she might have been helped
by the outward shape of him to per-
eeive the truth. She was not less a
child than other girls of her age, not
withstanding the unhappy progress she
had lately made in worldly knowledge.
