most into the lake with a scream.
"The lake was quite deep, and the
child. il left to her fate, would have
certainly been drowned. Realizing
this, | rushed toward the shore, dl-
vesting myself of my coat and vest as
l ran. Although | had moved very
quickly, the dog had been even quicker
In an instant he plunged into the water
and diving, soon reappeared, graspinS
the little one by the back OF the dress.
"As he sprang upon the beach he was
hailed with n shout of delight by the
children. He laid the little lady gently
down upon the grass. and after sniff
fling her from head to foot, finally came
to the conclusion that she was not any
the worse for her wet condition than a
good fright. He then shook himself
as free from the water as he could and
laid down to dry in the sun, which
was shining brightly at the time.
II satisfied myself that the child was
| in no way hurt, and then went over
and patted the noble old fellow upon

! seemed to say by the expression of his
| countenance: 1T was O. good thing
| happened along here-otherwise that
| little girl might have been drowned. "
| at this moment one of the tots came
up and began to feed the dog some
candy which she had with her, Rover,

ate the sweets with great relish, and
when they were gone looked as If he
would have enjoyed more. When he

he got up and began to romp with the
child that had fed him. He would
bound away and then return SUDDENLY.

This he continued for some time while
returned to the little one who had re-
ceived the ducking and began to ques-
ton her as to who she was and whether
/ had not better take her home. She
consented that ] should go with her,
and | had just taken her hand when
turned toward the lake TO call the
rest of the party, and saw the dog
deliberately push the little girl he had

claim for annexation, and returns an
enthusiastic supporter of the measure
and outspolen in its support.
Mr.. Mcmillan says that in the event
of annexation, Honolulu. now city
of 10000. will have 100000 people in
side of five years. If Hawaii becomes
American property it will afford a
splendid opportunity for young men.

pie of the Islands to refuse them ar

"For the past seventy years this gov
eminent has held out the hope that
some day they would be part of the
United States. That little handful of
men who went to the Islands from
America completely dominates the
whole Islands. They control the bust.

Dauphin then led the way After 60
Ing a considerable distance we followed
him down the long, straight, round tun-
mel. which we had before named the
Gun Barrel, turned a sharp corner and
were at the pit. This seemed forty or
hrty feet across, and so high that we
could get no notion Of the top. But
up ON one side at the height of about
twenty-five feet, as the Captain
guessed 1T, there was big hole which
l)auphin told us was the end of a tun-
mel leading to the Fort and the rest
OF the cave. He said that going up
from the edge which we could see, the
tunnel was almost as steep as the roof
or mousse for fifteen or twenty feet, af-
ter which it went slowly downhill. We
were careful not to make any noise
near here for fear some of the outlaws
might be lurking about above. Dau-
phin said there was a rope tied to q
s1arp corner of n rock which the men
used when they wanted to come down
for fish or for any other purpose
We had no sooner got back through
the Gun Barrel than Dauphin broke out
in q string of abuse of Isaac London.
but the Captain refused to listen to it
at all, telling him that he was no bet
ter than London, and that he would
have pushed his chief into the pit lust
as gladly as London threw him in if

If you were as old as am and knew

would think twice before you said it,
Dauphin may help us, but it's not much

talks strong enough against London
now, but It's all because he hates him,
and hate is a poor foundation to build
on in such as case as this. He hates
London because he Is afraid of him,

but we must get up into the other
part of the cave" went on the Captain,
because I don't doubt he is right about
there being no place to get out in this
part. My plan is to make a pole of
these small sticks, binding them togeth-
er with strands of the rope, long enough
to reach up to the mouth of that tun-
nell"
He set to work that moment, and
stopped no more than to eat hurriedly
and sleep a few hours for what must
have been two or three days. Thus it
was he worked: First he took q dozen
of the small sticks, each three Oh four
feet long, and splced them together
with strands of the rope, making a
slender pole full thirty feet long. Then

In 1877 a wife was sold in England
for a40, and what is more remarkable,
the articles of sale were drawn up and
signed at solicitors office, the money
paid, and the chattel handed over with
all the gravity of law.
In the course of a county court case
at Sheffield in May, 1881, man named
Moore stated that he was living with
the wife of one of his friends, and that
he had purchased her for a quart Of
beer. This transaction was brought
under the notice of the government by
Mr.. A. NJ. Sullivan. who requested the
Home Secretary to take measures for
preventing such reprehensible transac-
tions. This had no effect, evidently, for
since that time many sales have been
recorded.
During the hearing of school board
case in the course of 1881, at Ripon,
a woman informed the bench that she
had been bought for 25s., and had as
summed the name of the purchaser.
At Alfreton, in 1882, a husband sold
his rib for a glass of beer in a public
house and the rib gladly deserted her
legal lord.

the Captain, very quietly. "And we
