Mrs. St. Johns saw three persona on thebeaeh. and she aat down to watch
ft . and think what it was bast to do.
Mrs. 8t Johns had gotnsedtothinkiMC about what was best to do long
ago. Mr- St, Johns, like the disagree

ownied the etioaax of all his disagree

her daughter and the man she hod hoped to win. "I would like to stran
gle her!"
The group on .the beach turned in
fiie dusky twilight and came up the
nath to the house. When they came
in sight around the clump of cedars at the olios, Homer Graves had given an arm tolmcia and was walking between the two girls, "I know Lucia could marry him if Miss Marvin were only out of the way," Mrs. St. Johns said slowly, to herself; "I am quite positive of that; but while she is in the way we can do nothing. Must I sit idly and see my cherished plans fail, all on account of that girl's
pretty face and winning ways r never; It's war between us! Lucia and I will win if we can if we fight it out to the death! She heard Lucia in her room,
aad she got up aad went in. Lucia had thrown herself upon the sofa despondently.
"Wbat is the matter, Lucia?" asked
her mother, seating herself beside her
daughter.
Matter enough!" eried JUucia, iret-
fnUy. "That hateful Miss Marvin-
how I do hate her. Why, she talks so
to Mr. Graves about poets and history,
musks, and all that, as if she were a man, and., know as much about such
tilings as he does; but when she says
anything to me she talks as if I were a
a ehild or a f ooL and couldn t under
stand what she meant if she talked to
me as she does to him; and oh, dear,
dew; 1 lore him better than any man I
ever knew before. Oh, dear, dear.
And hoe the young girl, who showed
how shallow and superficial she was
by the weak lines about her month, be
gan to cry.
"Dont," said her mother soothingly;
has there was a hard ring in her voice that told that she was thinking of the
woman they both hated. "We must do
aamethinff to set rid of her. Let me
think it over, my dear."
All that night Mrs. St Johns thought,
but failed to find any plan which pram
jed success. If they could be rid of Alma Marvin, That one thought kept ringing through her brain. If they only oould! They must wait and bide their
time. Mrs. St. Johns was perfectly unscrupulous at all times, and she had a HtmVk obieet to work for now: one

oitement wero too much for Almas nerves, and she was completely exhausted when she reached the house.
Mrs. St Johns, who had seen the ac
cident from the house, and had sincerely hoped that the girl would drown, met them pn the steps in well-feigned solicitude, and bustled about giving orders here and there and everywhere,
and assuming full control of matters. She got Alma off to her room and put her to bed, and then congratulated herself, as she might have done under the circumstances.
Bonier seemed to have forgotten the
existence of Lucia in his anxiety re
garding Miss Marvin. Mrs. St Johns discovered this with her keenly jealous eye. She stayed with Alma, who, by-and-by, fell into a drowse, which lasted until late in the evening. You could have
told by seeing Mrs. St Johns' face that dark and evil thoughts were at work in her souL She was deathly pale. What
ever she was thinking about .frightened
her. By-and-by she arose and went noiselessly to her own room. She came
back presently, clutching something m
her hand. She bant over Alma ana
satisfied herself that she was asleep.
Then she shook a white powder from a
little piuk paper, which her hand had
covered, into an empty silver pitcher, which was slanding on the table. Her
hand shook like a leaf as she did it and her face was like the face of one dead.
Presently Mrs. Orable came m.
"Yon will tire yourself out," she said
to Mrs. St. Johns. "Let me stay here
while you go and rest awhile. " "1 don't know but what I will," Mrs. St Johns replied. "You had better go
and get some water first, though. Alma
may want some when she wakes, and there is none here," Mrs. Crable took the pitcher and went out, coming back presently with the water.
But Mrs. St Johns lingered. She seemed very loth to go. "I think she ought not to sleep any longer," she said. "I will wake her." She touched Alma's hand and the girl awoke. "You were sleeping too sonndly, I feared," said Mrs. St. Johns. "Would yon like some water?" She poured out a cupful and held it to Alma's lios. In putting baek the
cup she managed to overturn the pitcher, and its contents went gurgling to the floor. "How careless!" said Mr St Johns, evidently much annoyed. "I think I had better go to bed if I am as awkward as this," and a minute afterward she had said goodnight and went to her own room.
In the hall she stopped and looked
back. "I think I shall ta," she said,
meaningly, and then went to find Lucia, who was waiting for her to report the condition of her rival.
She is resting very comfortably,"
answered Mrs. St Johns, not disposed to say much about her, evidently. "I am thirsty, Lucia; I wish -you would go down stairs 'and bring some fresh
water, you can find a pitcher in some of the rooms below. I left one down stairs this morning." Lucia went
obediently, and presently came back with a pitcher of water, from which her mother drank

Over 100 years ago the following socalled "Genesis 51" was used to puzzle Biblical scholars, and to-day, were it read aloud in any mixed company, it is questionable if its fraudulent nature would be discovered, so beautifully is the spirit and language of the Old Testament imitated : 1. And it came to pass after these things, that Abraham sat in the door of his tent about the going down of the sun. 2. And behold a man, bowed with age, came from the way of the wilderness, leaning on a etaff. a And Abraham arose and met him,
and said unto him. Turn in, I pray
thee, and wash thy feet, and tarry all
night, and thou shalt arise early on the
morrow, and go thy way.
4 But the man said, Nay, for I will
abide under this tree.
5. And Abraham pressed him greatly ; so he turned, and they went into the
tent and Abraham baked unleavened
bread, and they did eat
fl. And when Abraham saw that the
man blessed not God, he said unto him.
Wherefore dost thou not worship the most high God, Creator of heaven and earth. 7. And the man answered and said, I do not worship the God thou speakest of, neither do I call Upon his name; for I have made to myself a God, which abideth always in my house and -pro-videth me with all things. 8. And Abraham's zeal was kindleJ against the man and he arose and drove him forth with blows into the wilderness. 9. And at midnight God called unto Abraham saying, Abraham, where is the stranger? 10. And Abraham answered and said, Lord, he would not worship thee, neither would he call upon thy name,
therefore have I driven him out from
before my face into the wilderness.
1L And God said, Have I not borne with him these hundred ninety and
iht vears. and nourished him, and
clothed him, notwithstanding his re
bellion against me, and conldst not thrm. that art thvself a sinner, bear
with him one night?
12. And Abraham, said, Let not the
ansrer of mv Lord wax against His
servant; lo! I have sinned, forgive me,
I pray thee.
13. And Abraham arose and went forth into the wilderness, and sought
diligently for the man, and found him and returned with him to the tent, ant? when he had entreated him kindly,
he sent him away on the morrow with
gifts.
14 And God spake again unto Abra
ham saying. For this thy sin shall thy seed be afflicted 400 years in a strange
land,
15. But for thy repentance will 1 de
liver them, and they shall come forth
with power, and with gladness of heart,
and with much substance.

TBS CHEROKEE JTATIOV. Socially, politically, and historically the Gherokees aro an interesting study. The Cherokee Nation is a political anomaly. Situated almost in the center of this country, neither a State nor a
Territory, and claiming almost absolute sovereignty, immunities that no other people in this country are heir to, and privileges foreign to our form of Government, the Cherokees may be
said to be in many respects a favored people. The Cherokees know a good
thing when they see it, and having a
good thing in their present condition,
they aim to hold on to it xne unero
kees enjoy local self-government,
which is maintained without public taxation. The risrhts of person and
property are protected, yet the protec
tion costs the protected nothing. What other people in the United States are
blessed to this extent? The Cherokees
have schools, seminaries, asylums, and
a penitentiary, yet their maintenance Acmt not coat the citizen a cent And
vet there is very little difference be
tween the so-called Cherokees and the
people of the neighboring States and
Territories. One might imagine before
visiting the Cherokee Nation that the
Gherokees were red Indians, such,
however, is not the case. The modern
Cherokees are mostly white men, na
tives of the different States and the European countries. There are few fall-
blooded Cherokees left Ion would have to search the Nation to And one. It is alleged that there are a few full-
blooded settlements on the Grand and Canadian rivers, but people familiar with every nook and corner of the Na
tion inform me that those who are
called full-bloods are really not more
than half-breeds. The population of
the Cherokee Nation is about 24,000,
The Nation comprises 11,000,000 acres
of some of the finest land in the world.
Of this 5,000,000 are "occupied;1
6,000,000 are leased to cattle syndicates. The Cherokee country is rich
in mineral resources. Some of the
finest coal beds in the country are in process of development It is well
wooded, well watered, and is equally
applicable to cattle raising or agricul
ture. The land is held in common,
Any Cherokee citizen can cultivate as mach land as he feels like, provided lw
does not infringe on the claim of hit neighbor. He can fence in any amoun' of unoccupied domain he desires to cultivate, but must leave a space of a quarter of a mile between his fence and that of the next plantation. This vacant space is used as common for crazing and road purposes. It is noth
ing uncommon to find a 500 acre plantation, luxuriant with oorn, wheat, rye, vegetables, orchards, and all other products of the farm. The land is well cultivated, the most improvod machinery is in common use, the fences are substantial and compact, and prosperity is everywhere apparent The largest apple itv not always. t

sprang upon a truiterer s ispie. J-"" crowd already recognized their leader. He began to speak, and he spoke with a certain rude and fiery oratory which moved his hearers more than eloquence. He bade them rejoice, for the hour of their deliverance was at hand. St Peter, once a fisherman, had beaten down tho pride of Satan and released the world from bondage; so likewise would he, Masaniello, another fisher
man, strike on tne uonas oi ine moss faithful people. Let them pay no more taxes; let them win back with fire and sword the ancient privilege of Naples, the right of freedom from all taxes which the Spaniards had infringed. His own life might fall; bis head might ride aloft upon a pole. But to die in such a cause would be his glory.' There is no rhetoric which thrills its hearers like that which gives the echo to their passions. The crowd broke into a fierce shout, and turned with exultation to the work of ravage. The
first object was the toll house in tne
squara Faggots drenched with pitcn were burled in at the windows ; a lighted torch was added, and the building in a few minutes was a pile of raging flames.
Then there was a cry ior arms, a-
ponderous beam was brought and wielded by strong men, the gates of the
Carmine Tower were Deaten in, ana uie crowd rushed eagerly upon the pikes and halberds. Clubs, knives, and bars of iron were pressed into the service ;

The days of successful whaling are not over, though the business has become very risky. The substitution of steamers for sailing vessels has resulted in soma very good voyages lately. One of the most fortunate skippers of tho day is Oapt Bauldry, of the New Bedford steam whaler Orca, who has just returned with all the oil and bone his ship can carry.

Ringing Noises
In the ears, sometimes a roaring, boning sound, or snappin? like the resort ot a pistol, are caused by
catarrh, that exceedingly oisagreeaoie ana vcu rommon disease. Loss of smell or hesrina also result
from catarrh. Hood's Barsapamia, ue great oiooa partner, is a peculiarly successful remedy tor this disease, which it cures by purifying the blood. If you suffer from catarrh, try Hood's Saiaaparttla. the
peculiar medicine. I used Hood's SanaparOla tor cstanh. and received great relief end beneflt from It. The catarrh was very disagreeable, especially la the winter, causing constant discharge from my nose, ringing noises In my ears, and pains In the back of my head.
Ihe effort to clear my head in tne morning oy hawking and spitting was painful. Hood's SarsapirUIa gave ma relist immediately, while in Mme I was entirely cured. I am never without the mod clnetamyhor.se. ail think it is worth ltewetebtm
