A slight railing on either side divided the' path from the garden, Where the summer chrysanthemums, the peonies and pinks were, bursting into bloom, while the camellia, azalea and primrose gave iorth their expiring strength in a few delicate flowers. Some late violets peeped timidly from the shadow of a huge rock;. around the lattice work of the summer house vine tendrils struggled with dainty clematis, and cherry blossoms. from which the house was named, bloomed In gay profusion everywhere. Sitting there in the silence of the even? ing, the soft landscape spread out beneath him, the odor of the garden mounting to the arbor, Kam pel almost forgot his re? cant annoyance and indulged in pleasant dreams of the future. Dusk was advanc? ing, when he was startled by seeing Niya, who1 had approached, noiselessly, standing fiC'the" dcorway. She uttered a little scream on finding the summer-house occu? pied, and was about to go away, when Kampei recalled her and desired her in a harsh, voice to sit down. She obeyed, the blood meanwhile mountingindignantly to her fJfflrellea?pandrwheu Ifompei looked severeyfoflfty shetaistBy brushed-away the traces of recent tears and said defi? antly: .?i'Fwjwn not thus* good-Kampei; I am no^O-Suha, your betrothed; I am only Niya.

You are no longer anything to me but the miserable tea house attend? ants He turned away from her with, a gesture of anger. She clasped her hands to her aide and staggered against the frail wood jworft, making the whole structure tremble; then, looking at him wildly, she uttered a heartbroken cry and rushed down the path, past the ; house and across the hroad road. ? Kampei followed the girl with his-eyes, and, when be saw her- climb the bank on the roadsideand spring Into the river flow tag Jskrwi&beyoadi he.mutte^ to himself: l "The death of a dog is good enough for ouu ifKiirvo'uean*asonH1' ~ ??.t" t* 1 But better thoughte quickly came, and he determined to try and save her. ? Niya rose to the surface" of - the. water, and her clothing buoyed her for some mo? ments. She did not struggle, but kept her hands thrust into the sleeves o? her rohe. She sank again in the smooth cur rent, and as her face-became hurled her. ^fortitude deserted her, and. she threw up.her arms with a Stiffed Shriek. . Tho bugles that marked the Bpot where she sank were almost gone When Kampei reached the bank, divested of .his sandals and outer garments. He sprang into the stream, and. succeeded in seizing the drowning, gidv wffoy though nearly 5in-:' sensible, grasped him tightly about the neck, mnd?3ng ma movements; Kampei, finding the place'''shallow, put his feet upon the ground, but to his terror they sank into deep mnd, and he felt the water gradually rising upon him. Ha strained every muscle, hut the water still mounted until they were both covered A roar as of iiaunder- filled his ears, and his head seemed about to burs ;, hut he managed to preserve some coolness. By a violent effort he loosened Niya's frantic embrace, and, still grasping her clothing, struggled out of the mud and gained a firm foothold, exhausted and gasping for breath. ' Though his strength was almost gone and his knees. tottered, he held Niya to his breast, looking anxiously into her face. Her eyes were closed, and her head fell heavily on his arm, the hair, from which the fastenings were gone, falling over bis shoulder in a thick mass and floating on the stream. ; 'The incident had been observed/from the chaya, and a number of men now stood on the bank, by whose aid the two were soon placed in safety. When Kam? pei had seen the } girl restored to anima? tion and given in charge of the female ! servants, he-was -forced to join the other guests, by whom he was clapped on the 'shoulders and praised as a hero. He slept soundly until awoke by the harsh sound of the shutters being moved in theiri- grooves- and by the sunlight pouring in through the semi-transparent screens.

Then ft occurred to him that the girl's present I position might be owing to a quarrel with her relative on this very subject, and the idea made him remorseful. - Finally he wa?informed--that,1 despite her engage? ment to him, O-Suba hod during his ab? sence found another lover, a European trader at one of the ports, with hair and heard golden as the tresses of the sun goddess, and that there were rumors of their approaching marriage. - His thoughts turned to poor Niya, neg? lected by her relatives, insulted by him, and left to battle alone with a world that is so cruel to the weak. - Kampei long lay-awake that night, and' the result of his meditations was made known; ? to his parents when he sprang from his mat soon after daybreak. The old couple approved of his proposals, and went to the veranda to say farewell, and to watch him fondly as he walked with a light step towards the highway, tying un? der Ids chin as he went .his. conical broad brimmed straw hat. Before he had gone far his father called him hack. "Take my purse, son," he said; "chaya keepers are very hard to deal with unless they see the money hag in; your hand You wiB find In tb^the*fgold pieces yon brought home yesterday:""' " The sun was still high in the heavens when, Kampei. stopped at the "Chaya of. the yejtlaut. Cherry Blossom," and, after exchanging salutations with. the proprie? tor, begged to see the girl Niya. She was brought into his presence, looking pale and alarmed, and casting timid glances at the young man from under her long lashes. Her hands played nervously with her robe and she looked about anxiously &r a place as for as possible from Kampei. "Niya," he said, "I am not angry with yon, bnt I want to know why you left home." A faint cry was her only reply. "Had I any connection with it?I, Kam? pei?'-' ? The girl wrung her hands and turned ?fcer face away, looking distressed, with trat, however, uttering a word. "Would you like to come home again, little' Nfyai" he went on in an encouraging voice. "Yah, yahlyou are too fast, young sir!" broke In the master, who was sitting on the veranda smoking, and listening to Kampei. "You are toe fast. She is mine ffor two" years! I have the agreement signed by herself, with her receipt for the money." "Money!" cried Kampei. "She has sold herself, then. But," he continned more calmly, "I am willing to pay you back again. See," and saying this he drew out his purse, showing to the mas? ter of the house a number of gold coins. "How much was it, I pray you, good sir?" "Eighty riyos," the host replied. "Eighty riyos," echoed Kampei, a light dawning upon him. "Why," the host went one angrily, "that is the very purse in which I gave ,ihc girl the money, and yet you pretend not- to know that she is bound to me! What is the meaning of this deceit?" / Kampei recoiled.-- All was now plain to him. To save his parents'from ruin, his father probably from death, this poor girl, tenderly reared, sold ;ierself into virtual slavery,'where exhausting labor, ill treat? ment, even stripes, would bo her lot! And hp had almost allowed her to- drown her? self when driven mod by his taunts! Poor Niya! And she did. this for?was it for his parents or for him? The question made him thoughtful. Meauwhi lo Niya, her forehead pressed against the' partition, sobbed The mo? ment she longed for had arrived. Kampei pow knew why she was there, kn"w that it was for his sake she left her l jar vil? lage.' Yet she was frightened. What business had she to interfere in the affairs of grown people? What did she know of the great world that she should face it so lightly? Above everything there was Kampei only a few feet from her, looking at her most' intensely?she knew it with? out turning around: sne, felt his gaze pierce her?there wad Kampei and what should she do?

"Niya," he said, looking sharply at her\ "I am no longer affianced to O-Suba; she loves a fair haired foreigner, and is about to marry him." She turned quickly, her cheeks glowing, her eyes sparkling through tears like the sun through mist, and in the happy smile that lit up her face Kampei read her secret. "Then you . love mel" he cried, and Niya's smile and blush said "Yes." "You did not consult the girl's rela? tives," said the young man, turning to the host. "She told me she hod none," stam? mered the other, alarmed for the legality of his agreement. "Destroy the indenture, and receive back your money* good 6ir, I beg," said Kampei. The tea house keeper agreed, and, while the two men drank a .cup together he confided to Kampei that he was not sorry to cancel the bargain-, as the girl did not suit. "She moped too much," he said; "she had some hidden grief?the cause of which," he added, with a smile, "I can now divine."

As to the source of their Inspiration, he admitted that they not unfrequently went tq^ the back volumes of the firm's fashion magazines, of which, there were files reaching back to the very beginning, and having evolved a new bonnet or dress out of bis inner consciousness, or by altering or developing some long forgotten mode of the past, the artist has done his share of the work. The next thing to be done, according to my Informant, was to induce some well known leader of Parisian so? ciety or popular French actress to adopt one of the new shaped hats or costumes, 'of whatever it might be.

Ronzo de Leo, who traveled many years in Africa with Dr. Livingstone, was pno who almost stood out alone in the asser? tion that a race of dwarfs lived in central Africa. In his lectures in America he told of a little people who fled to the clefts of the rocks when the explorers ap? proached. C. Eugene Wolff, who traveled many years with Stanley, and who Is now in the city, gives some, queer accounts of these dwarfs. "On the southern, branches of the Congo," said he to a reporter, "I have seen whole villages of these Lilipu tians. They are a generous little people, who live in rude huts and clear ground, engaged In varied sorts qf agriculture. They are also skilled hunters and they make palm wine. They are as lithe and supple in climbing trees as monkeys or. baboons, although they are physically as perfect men as any. of the giant tribes thereabout, and they know ns much. "The men aro not over four and a half ' feet high, while the women are a good deal smaller. These tiny little men aro both bravo and cunning. They are ex? perts with the bow and arrow, and readily bring down the African bison, antelope and even elephants with them. As trap? pers of small animals they are unsur? passed. In a close pinch they use the lance with astonishing dexterity, and an ordinary sling in their hands is wielded with wonderful skill. The dwarfs coMect the sap cf the palm, with which they make soap. The men are smooth faced and of a rich mahogany color, while the hair is short, kinky and as black as night. Tens of thousands of them live on the south branch of the Congo. They are nn affable, kind hearted people, of simple ways and devoid of vicious tendencies to a greater degree than most semi-barbaric races. The women are industrious and amiable. Very queer these people look alongside the great swarthy' blacks fur? ther np on the Congo. The latter are of prodigious size, uncouth, rude to the re? motest degree and cannibalistically in? clined.

STEERAGE EXPERIENCE' I j - ' ? ' ' ' HARDSHIPS OF fH& BEEkERS. FOR HOMES IN A NEW LAND. An Emigrant Gives Interesting Details of His Life Aboard Shlj>? Disregard of Health and Decency?Incidents of the Passage. A gentleman from the northern part of Missouri, who was in Omaha two days of last-week, is a living exemplification of the advantages which the land of the free andHhe home of the brave possesses for men of all nationalities. A few years ago this gentleman landed in this country, one of a number of tired and wretched immi? grants. Today he is an associate justlco of the county court of n prosperous Mis? souri county, in which he has made con? siderable money as well as many friends. "The scene on the pief previous to the departure of a. Vessel is an exciting one," said he. "It is crowded with emigrants all in, a confused and excited state, re? minding one of a frightened flock of sheep. The majority are perhaps English, Irish and German, though nearly all nations are represented. Each emigrant has a contrary ticket which, in consideration of HLCUjreht rate of fare, stipulates for his tep^tiation to New York, together h^-a full supply jot wholesome" pro? visions,1 cooked and served byitastewards. The passenger is. required to provide him? self' with "bedding and cooking utensils, ki my time the weekly allowance of food for adults was prescribed by the govern? ment and printed on the contract ticket As I remember it, it was 21 quarts of Water, 8 1-2 pounds of, bread, ;1 pound of wheaten flour, 1 i-2pounds of oatmeal, rice and peas, 2 pounds of potatoes, 11-4 pounds of beef, 1 pound of pork, 2 ounces of tea, 1 pound of sugar, and salt, pepper, mustard, vinegar, etc. The steerage stew? ards berth the- emigrants, and they are then marshaled on deck under the scru? tiny of a government inspector who ex? amines them for infections diseases. "What is the general treatment these people receive while at sea?" , asked the reporter. "Well," replied the Missourian, "neither officers nor men seem to consider them worthy of reBpect. Occasionally you will find some ships' officers who will treat them In a humane, tolerating manner, but as a rule.they are treated more like a drove of cattle. No difference is made between the better or worse class, bnt all are treated alike. There is no classifica? tion; the single women and men are sep? arated, but Poles, Germans, English, French, Italians and people of all conn -tries are thrown together. A cleanly, thrifty woman is berthed next to a filthy one, and tho same with neat appearing, hardworking men, who are compelled to mingle with the dirtiest of vagabonds. "The steerage is usually cold, dark and foul smelling. - It extends nearly tho en? tire length of tho vessel under the saloon deck and is cut up into gloomy apart? ments. In each one of these are four tiers of berths or bunks, two on each side. The lower tier is two feet from the deck and the upper tier is three feet from the roof. The steerage is about ten feet in height; in each tier are probably six berths, of eighteen inches-: wide and -six i'eet Jobg- hjid rhja^e ptj boardq.^ These; berths'generally emit an unpleasant smell of chlorate of lime or carbolic acid. "Officious stewards, are. moving about indulging in a coarse 'joke here and a growl at some unfortunate there. After the supper, and but few partake of the first one at sea, the tables are raised to the roof and the steerage -center space is clear. Some lamps are then lighted, but promptly extinguished at 0 o'clock. Three meals aro served every day, and In qual? ity and quantity they are substantial. For breakfast at 8 o'clock emigrants sit down to do justice to oatmeal porridge and molasses, hot bread, coffee and salt fish. For dinner at 12 perhaps soup or broth, boiled meats, potatoes and bread. For supper at 6, tea and bread and but? ter, with molasses. However substantial the food may be, the manner in which it is served is uncleanly. Beef and soup are placed on the table In rusty looking tins and then a scramble 'takes place, dirty fingers often being used instead of forks. On a-pleasant summer day the emigrants have quite a merry time on deck. Some of the Italians bring out their harps and violins, and a concert takes place. Aside from this .these people amuse themselves at cards, checkers and other games, and after a* timo they be? come partially accustomed to their filthy prison; the-majority make the best of it and enjoy themselves to a degree." "How is the emigrant cared for during a storm?" queried the reporter. "That's just where he reaches' the height of his misery," answered the ex emigrant. "I shall never forget the suf? ferings we all endured during a severe storm on my passage. When the storm came up the hatches were battened down, the ports screwed in their places and the companion ways closed. During alLthe; timo the sea is on deck perhaps 1,000 peo? ple were conflhe&tatho steerage,;on this., occasion, for near^-thrce days. 'Tho at? mosphere ,becamej*ciose and in -twenty four, hours was lpaHed with impurities; meals'were arregn^ariy served -and the food barely cooked'. .1 shall never forget the exhibition of, terror 'om^the part of some of the emigrants;' arid ' their terror became contagions as their shrieks grew louder and their prayemmore frequent. After the storm had subsided, and tne steerage was open, 'the' sailors would, not go in to clean-up rf or "six hours, and then they had to be\ supplied with, an extra al? lowance o tgrogi I r erheniber on this trip an incident which'i'saflof toTd'me was not an unusual one. One of the Italians in the steerage bad not washed himself since he had been on board, and after the storm he refused to leave his bunk, but clung to it in all its filth, and with his characteris? tic indolence. On the captain's order ho was .brought; on board^ind thoroughly cleansed with a hose, after'which he re turned, nppnrently feeling no better for his clean up, but I am certain the balance of us rested easier. "When the" steamer arrives at quaran? tine- a, towboat conveys the doctor on board'and He inspects the immigrants. If there are no cases of infectious disease the steamer proceeds to the city, and shortly another steamboat appears with the board? ing officer of the emigration commission? ers. This official ascertains the number of passengers on board and listens to com? plaints. "Soon the trees of the Battery park come in sight, the steamer's pulse ceases, several barges are towed alongside, and the immigrants with their baggage are transferred to these. The same excite? ment is here manifest as at the outset of the voyage. The.poor immigrants are browbeaten and driven about like the same old sheep, and as soon us the barges are loaded n :,i;t'!;ll ptcamer takes them in tow and llsey urv landed with their load of humnn freight at Castle flardcn."-?

Mr. Edward Jack, writing about hem? lock in The New York Lumber Trade Journal, says that until .lately it has been abundant in Maine and in the maritime provinces of Canada, but ax and fire are fast exterminating it. The liability of the tree to be blown down on account of Its bushy tops causes windfalls which ftometimes cover considerable areas, over which fires rnge furiously. The lateral ; roots run near the surface to a great dis? tance, and when the tree is blown down they bring up large masses of earth. In a windfall the trunks, tops and the clumps of earth brought up by the roots form a tangle through which one can mako only little progress. Two days of hard work were required to get through three or four miles of a tract Mr. Jack was once in? specting.?New York Sun. The Car's Itecllnlng Chair.

Successful Attempt to Combine Effective Control with Ample Iloine Ad van tagen. Results of tho System?Personal Com? ffrt, Education, Diet anil Clothing. At Banstead, in Surrey, there is being worked out an experiment in the education and bringing up of pauper children which is of exceptional interest. Few of tho holders of the mansions of Kensington and Chelsea are aware of the fact that as they Sitcoziiyin the Pullman express which takes them to Brighton from the dirty rac tropolis they pass within o mile of a free? hold estate in which they have an uhdi* Tided share; and on which is being carried put a scheme for giving health and vigor to the minds of the pauper children of their parishes which promises as success? ful results in its own field as ever they in? dividually obtained from the invigorating sea breezes to which they are hastening! To minds unfamiliar with the facts as to pauperism there is something startling in the knowledge that from these two parishes in the wealthy West. End there are no less than TOO pauper children to be cared for, and, if possible, made into use? ful citizens. At Banstead an attempt is being made to combine effective control with'the home advantages. _ On the high lands .pear the Downs there are erected twenty-three houses, each standing in its own ground, together with schools, hospitals, a church {'md the necessary administrative build: ngs, on the twenty-seven acres which form the little town. A street, runs throughout the length of the site and. the houses and other buildings are arranged on each side in a roomy, tasteful manner. Ten of these houses are set apart for boys and the remaining thirteen for the girls. Over "each of the boys' houses are a house father and a house mother, who are mar? ried. The father follows soro.6 trade or occupation which Is of use to the village and its occupants. One is a carpenter, another is a tailor, while the others re? spectively follow their callings as smith, plumber, shoemaker, baker, gardener and bandmaster. Over each of tho girls' houses is a house mother. Each of the boys' houses is occupied by thirty-eight boys, and each of the girls' houses by twenty-four girls. The house mother performs the duties of the home in her own particular way. Every week she sends to the store and obtains her week's suppty of groceries. She cooks for her children at her own lire and is assisted by them. She does part of the washiug for her large family. The children wash the door, clean the dishes, sweep out tho rooms and perform the other household duties under her direction. On the ground floor are the kitchen, general room, lavatory and the house mother's room; Up stairs are the bedrooms. The chil? dren sleep in two rooms and each has a separate bed. The good old rule of "early to bed: and early to rise" is Btrictly fol? lowed. When the children are out of school they are not made to sit on forms against a wall with their arms folded and - their toes turned out, staring into va ? caucy; -as used to be the case; but they are turned out into the house grounds, to scamper and play at their own games and to. shout and be boys and girls like other children. The house fathers cut.toys for their boys,'repair their playthings and as' sist them in their little enterprises, just as a real father does for his own boys. Some of the children have animals which they have purchased with the hoarded pennies they received at chance times, and they are encouraged to tend them well and are given facilities for keeping them. Others of them have fenced off little gardens, where they raise hardy annual and shrubs. The home life is necessarily not so free as that enjoyed by children in more fortu? nate circumstances, but there can be no doubt that the main characteristics of it nre there. The education of these children is un? dertaken in a most praiseworthy spirit. The schools are examined every year by the inspectors of the education depart? ment, and have secured satisfactory re? ports us to the standard of efficiency and the thoroughness of the teaching. As one passed through the boys' school and its class rooms the eye met the familiar sums set as 'exercises, just as they used to bother one:in the school days gone by. The girls' school is conducted on the most modern lines. In the infants' school there was the same thoroughness shown, as also provision for relieving the strain of ? study on their young minds. Tho mis? tress played "See Saw" on'a piano in the schoolroom, while the children went through a series of exercises such as hands up, on shoulders, stretch out and down, to the rhythm of the music. The greater part of the clothes are made on the site, and the whole of the bread baked-there. The washing 'also is done in the village laundry or iu the houses. It is practically a self contained hamlet, with its own roads, sewers and sewuge farm within its borders. As the children get up in years they are told off to assist : the. skilled fathers'and mothers in their trades. During'the three years ended 1884, 130 of_the.:"etiildren were placed in situations as apprentices or at service, and commenced an independent life on their own account. Of the fifty-nine boys, some went as hairdressers' and pages, and others were divided over eleven other trades. Of the Beventy-one'girls, sixty nine went as servants, one as a hairdresser and one as a dressmaker. As far as the managers have been able to trace them in ..their subsequent life, they have conducted themselves with credit to their training. The schools, have, been in full work for five years, and though .that is not a sufll cient period to pronounce definitely ns to ul?materesults Of tho cottage home sys? tem, as it,is called, yet it is long enough to bear most encouraging fruit arid the promise of success. The dieting of the children is very good. The clothing is warm and substantial. The children bear a ruddy, healthy look, and are pictures of strong, growing boys and girls. Some of <them are of an un? mistakably low type, while others have bright, intelligent faces. They bear an unimpeachable testimony to the more hu? mane treatment they receive than did Oliver Twist in the days of unrcgenerated Bumbledom.?Poll Mall Gazette. Ah Important Condition.

A seedy man walked into a downtown printing office with a small Scotch terrier in his arms, which he said he had found running around the streets. His desire was to sell the dog for the price of a meal, and he offered the dog to a printer on those terms. The printer refused to buy the animal, but asked the man to wait and he would see what he could do for him. He went out and purchased a blue ribbon, which ho tied around the neck of the dog after thoroughly washing the an? imal. The two strolled up Broadway as far as Fourteenth street, where a lady seated in a carriage in front of a dry goods house hailed them and asked if they cared to sell "that pretty little creature." They did, and when asked what they wanted for him they said that $25 would buy dog and ribbon. The bargain was quickly made. Around in Thirteenth street the men divided profits.?New York Evening Sun.

Near the village ofZilling florf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and in dustrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related by herself, is of interest to English women. "I was employed," she says, "in the work of a large farm? house, Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either food or drink. I was compelled to take to my bed for several weeks. Getting a little better from rest and quiet, I sought to do some work, but was soon taken with a pain in my side, whicli in a little while seemed to spread over mywhole body, and throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by a cough, and shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, and, as I thought, for the last time. My friends told me that my time had nearly come, and that I could not live longer than when the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of the Sei gel pamphlets. I read it, and my dear mother botight me a bottle of Skiokl's Smrr, (Shaker Extract of Roots) which I took exactly according to directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a change for the better. My last illness began June- 3d, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when I began to take the Syrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The cough left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing. Now I am perfectly cured; and oh, how happy I am! I cannot express gratitude enough for Seigel's Syrup (Shaker Ex? tract of Roots). Now I must tell you that the doctors in our district distributed handbills cautioning the people against the medicine, telling them it would do no good, and many were thereby influenced to de? stroy the Seigel pamphlets; but now, whenever one is to be found, it is kept like a relic. The few preserved are bor? rowed to read, and I have lent j mine for six miles around our , district. People have come eighteen miles to get me to buy the medicine for them, know? ing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind.I know a woman viio was look? ing like death, r.nd who told them there was no help for her, that she had consulted several doctors, but none could help her. I told her of Seigel's Syrup, and wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is in j^erfect health, and the people around us are amazed. The medicine has made such progress in our neighborhood that people say they don't want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who were confined to (heir beds and could hardly move a finger have been cured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by going through sonic water, aud was in bed five years with costiveness and rheuniatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her. There was not a doctor in the surrounding district to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but. every one crossed themselves; and said they could not lic*!}> her. Whenever tho little bell rang, which i.s rung in our place when anybody is dead, we thought surely if was for her; but Seigel's Syrup and Pills (Shaker Extract of Boots) saved her life, and now she i.'i ;is healthy as anybody, goes to church, .and can work oven in tho ii'-idu. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out, knowing how many years she had been in bed. To-day she adds her grati? tude to mino for God's mercies and Seigel's Syrup: Maut.v Haas. Shaker Medicines are now being sold in all parts of tho world, and are working wonders, as shown in tho above (?;? <e. A. J. White, . G l Warren Si. Now York. 3 3 rt' c 3 ?-d ??'
