You are working too hard. Besides, I begin to understand, since you ironed my shirts sweetest, that laundry work is a specialty. i But I shall learn in time, said Mrs. Fisher. I only scorched four of your shirts; and my home-made bread is delicious.

And, oh! I am so anxious to make home ali it should be to carry out Josiahs lovely dream. Mamma, come and dine with us to-morrow, and see If I have not some little talent for cooking. That is a good idea, said Mr. Fisher. I shall unavoidably be away from home; but I think, little wife, your dear mamma will see -that my idea Iras, perhaps, too" Arcadian; and we might' get the servants back, and see wifle In her pretty dresses again.

I always tell my daughter to do as her husband wishes, said Mrs. Royal; but of course I will dine with Berenice. She did. It was a very good little dinner; but the next day found the servants in their places, and Mr. Fisher never alluded to his Arcadian dream again.

Good Company. Police Help fBe Gamblers. From twenty-one Milwaukee pulpits Protestant ministers Sunday thundered against the gambling evil that exists in that city. Each minister read a copy of a report made by a committee of the Ministers Association which has conducted investigation, and the report dealt in facts. It gave the gambling houses, their location and the reputed owners and told how many players were in the places when representatives of the, association "1 i Visited them.

The report itself contained a great deal of evidence that will be used in the courts. Some of the ministers handled the city authorities without gloves, and all urged the citizens to arouse and see' to it that the laws against gambling are enforced. To Settle Labor Troubles. In all likelihood the State of Wisconsin have a State Board of Arbitration at once, in which will be vested authority to act as mediator in all instances where labor and capital cannot agree. IThe law passed by the last Legislature providing for the establishment of such a board did not go into effect' until Saturday, Twhen it was published in the official State paper.

The act provides that one member of the board shall be selected from some labor organization, and he will probably be a Milwaukee man. Frank W. Archibald is indorsed by labor unions. I terminals are located. Williams, Dougherty Upham, of Duluth, secured the contract of dredging the slips.

There is also danger that many inmates of the asylums, may gain their liberty through habeas corpus proceedings, based on the legality of commitments.

Two courses only are left an appeal to the Supreme Court for a decision on the constitutionality of the law or an immediate call for a special session of the Legislature. It is probable that an appeal to the Supreme Court will first be made Among the cases in the Circuit Coflrt for Chippew. County is one brought by Irvine against Benjamin Millard to recover on a promissory note given on Dec. 14, 1S93, upon which there is due $2,103.33. Millard, in his an swer, claims as an offset that on Apri 20, 1893,.

he possessed certain knowledge concerning the ownership; location value of certain lands and timber located in the counties of Ashland and Bayfield. The tract contained 8,617 acres and Was bought fo $160,000 on his advice and rec-ommeiidatioh by McDonnell Irvin.e.

It was decided that the girl should go. On the voyage she met a very pleasant gentleman and to him she confided her mission to the -old home in Germany. He finally proposed marriage. He was accepted, and the wedding took place at her home.

Her money, about $2,900, was intrusted to bis care WISH I had been- named Peggy, said the young wife, sobbing. Be--A- renice is a name for a princess or a countess.

Give me the particulars.

More is to be gained by submission than revolt, especially when the husband is much older than She Had a History. A well-dressed and sharp-faced woman passedinto the lawyers office, and very shortly was standing by his desk. I beg your pardon, she said, in salutation, but can you spare me a few minutes of your valuable time? I am very busy, madam, he replied, but if you have anything of Importance tp communicate, I shall be glad to hear it. Pray be seated. Thank you, no, she said, looking around at a clerk or two in a nervous fashion.

I am a woman with a history, and Excuse me, apologized the attor bos that? he cried. Your little wife, was the reply. -Berenices face was, adorned with smears and smudges, so were her hands, so was her white apron. Some accident, darling? he cried, inalarm. He did not like to tell, her that she had a dirty face, so he laughed, and as she threw herself into arms embraced her like a very knight of courtesy.

Retiring to his own room to look In the glass, he found that the three kisses that she had imprinted on his cheeks and brow had left their mark there. He put his hand to the polished space on the top of his -headland found it sticky, and his usually immaculate shirt-bosom had the marks of ten tiny black fingers upon it. It took him some time to make his toilet, and when he descended dinner was on the table, and Berenice was striking the gong in ear-splitting fashion. I was so afraid you would let your wifelets first dinner grow cold, she said. Not likely, love, he replied.

But dont you need a glance in the mirror? Oh, I shall. put all vanity aside, my dear, she answered, and simply be domestic. If you are pleased, there is no one else to see, you know; besides, I must wait on you. Will you carve? Oh, certainly! said Mr. Fisher.

Certainly. This is i Soup, love, said Mrs. Fisher. Of course we have soup. I served everything at one time.

But we have courses all the same. The fluid which Mr. Fisher tasted somewhat resembled dishwater; but he forced a smile, and thought he would try the. fish. The next instant a creature of the sea lay before him, much as It came from the water, save that it was covered with a very rancid sauce.

It had been opened; Its bead, tail and scales remained intact. It does not seem quite. right, SQine-how, said Berenice. Next time. have It cleaned, love, said her husband, playfully.

And after all, beef is the great reliance. Where is the beef? Before you, dear, said Mrs. Fisher. Shall I turn the gas up higher? The husband made no remark. He turned a ball of burned bone and meat about with his fork, tried to cut a few scraps, gate it up as a bad job, and sighed.

Oh, Josiah," dqesnt it suit you? asked Berenice, with I pleading glances. Is it overdone, dear? Im afraid it is, a little, said Mr. Fisher. But Ive no doubt the next course will amply -compensate. What have you given me, angel? Apple pie, said handing him a large plate, on which lay a large slice.

The ttnfortunate husband took one mouthful, then said, meekly: Ill try the pudding, dear. Pudding! laughed Mrs. Fisher. That is my home-made bread, fresh from the oven. Try a piece.

No, no! Ive eaten quite heartily already! cried poor Fisher. Ill smoke a bit 1 Oh, dear, screamed Berenice, af ter-dinnecoffee I forgot it. The very thing, 1 love, said Mr. Fisher. While she was gone, however, he stayed the demands of hunger with wine biscuit from the sideboard, and sat beaming upon her as she re-entered with an extra smudge on her nose and a scorch on her apron, carrying a tray loaded with coffee pot and cups.

Now I will show you the sort of cof fee your little wife can make, said she, passing a cup for him. He took it, tasted it, and beamed on her again, then he said: A little weak my dear. By the way, did you grind the beans? She shook her head. Does one grind coffee? she asked. Always, said the husband.

Im sorry, said Berenice. But now Ill get my little note-book you can tell me just how you fancy things. The soup stronger? Yes, he The fish? she inquired. Well, you must, tell them to send the fish well cleaned, be said. The beef moderately done, and, lest you should have too much to do, buy bakers bread and pastry.

Never! she answered, solemnly. 1 know a 'housewifes duty better. Give you bakers bread and things! Never, my love. And the coffee must be ground, I remember. Yes, he said, helping her to get the dishes together and put them on the dumb-waiter; grind the coffee, sweetest.

And it was a lovely little dinner for me torcook, wasnt it? queried the black and gre asy object, whom he could scarcely recognize as his dainty Berenice, approaching him with upraised lips. Kiss me ten Ho did it. And isnt it so lovely to be alone together I doing everything to make home happy? Delightful! said Mr. Fisher, as he polished himself surreptitiously fwith a napkin. Im going out for a few min-ntes, pet He did.

His goal was a restaurant. During his absence Berenice admitted her mother at the kitGhen door. Well? asked the latter'. I shall love Josiah, better all my life! said Berenice. He has been an angel! Oh, what a mess I served him; and he smiled it through.

My program is ready for to-morrow. I mean to offer him b. dinner, after' a receipt of my own, serving everything with sugar Instead of salt. The coffee will be ground into powder, and I shall put and 1 foot 6 inches high. The proper hls-f torical inscription will appear upon the, base.

Several months ago- a Norwegian vessel arrived at Galveston; having in tow the hull of an English ship that was found floating on the surface of the sea, after some disturbance beneath the waves, either of a volcanic or earthquake nature, off the Faroe Isles.

The hull was '-covered with shells, but there was not much water in the hold or under -the decks, and, judging by apearances, the ship of which it was part would seem to have taken fire fifty years or so before, and burned to the waters edge. Some iron-bound chests, found in the captains cabin, contained several articles that had been reduced to pulp, and a leather bag that needed to be cut open with an ax More than a thousand pounds worth of guineas, dated 1809, were found in the bag.
