equal, I am aura. He seems like a common
aert of fellow, but she Is evidently very fend
of htm, and I am sure I would far rather she
aheuld see one lever twice a week than have
a variety coming here at all limes."
Aa the days were en our treasure de
veloped new and admirable qualities; she
wen the baby 'a heart completely, se that
be waa perfectly content te be with her for
hours at a time.
Hee was a model of neatness, and se pretty
and bright In her fresh, quaint little cap,
that all our visitors Immediately expressed
admiration for our domestic. Tnen she was
always smiling, aud her work seemed te be
a real enjoyment te her. 1 neter saw her
leek cress or Irritable no matter bow tired
she was, and she never complained when a
houseful el company dropped In upon us as
was frequently the case, aud accepted al
most wltn reluctance, and always with pro pre
luse thanks, such extra fees as 1 gave her at
these times.
" What a blessing she Is 1" Kvelyn said te
me ever and ever. "1 am growing abso
lutely fend of her."
"He am I " 1 began, but 1'velyn para-
lyrea me witn a ioek.
" 1 will monopolize that part of the house
hold alTaiis, if you please," die said.
" But 1 can't help a growing feeling of
fendneu for a person who manages a fur
nace aa she does," 1 pleaded. "Yeu knew
hew we have alternately frozen and broiled
until Mellle came. New the temperature is
just right always and I am uet called be
low a dozen times each day te explain or ex
plore tint furnace. And she saves fuel, tee ;
and se I can forgive her If she lets the grocer's
bill iMuiiie rather formidable dimensions of
late."
"Bui Jehn, you muat remember hew
much company we have been having ; and
you alwajs want the beet of everything, you
knew. He don't blame Mellle if the grocer's
bill is rather large."
"Oh, I don't blame Mellle for anything; 1
don't believe 1 would tind fault with her for
anything lesi thau murderingBthe baby, alie
is such a treasure." jk
"Am I te understand frenSiat assertion
that you would smile upon haPj she put me

" He Is possessed of one characteristic of a
gentleman : he smokes geed cigars. The
kitchen Has redolent with the smoke of
first class Havana latt evening after he went
away."
" I am glad te hear that," laughed Kvelyn.
"Fer that is an Indication el extravagance,
and II he is extravagant he cannot very seen
be in a position te take Mellle away from us.
She says she will never marry him until
they have together saved enough te procure
a little bema"
Oaj ulght after Mellle had been with us
three months she saved the house from being
broken into by burglars. Our house deg,
who always barkedren the slightest provoca
tion, made satinusual a pretest at sounds
which KveJrvn and I stent thrnuirh alt tin.
consclejatfy that Mellle arose aud inspected
ansien, ana awaKenea me a few min
utes later, her brown eyes wide with fear.
"1 a a man drop Irem the slanting
reef," she said, " and take te bis heels. 1
knew some one was trying te enter the
house."
" Aud but for your watchfulness aud your
nerve he would hae succeeded, no doubt,"
I said. Aud tbeu, after the fashion el brave
men, when the burglar has gene, I anne end
made a thorough investigation of the beuse.
Turned en all the gas Jets aud slammed all
the doers as if le say :
" Who's afraid T-net 1."
During the next week I kept a brace of
pisieis in my room, dui slept soundly
through all the noises of the night If I
happened le hear the deg bark I turned ever
with a contented consciousness that Mellle
would hear and intestigate. And like the
man whn crept down stairs behind the shel
ter et hi wile's skirts at a Bimllar juncture, i
thought "it would be a ery mean burglar
who would harm a woman anyhow."
Mix weeks later Mellle areuted us early In
the morning with the startling announce
ment that the house had been robbed. All
the solid silver was gene from the dining
room, and the window was wide open.
I sprang te my feet and made a clutch for
my clothing which hung eer a chair. Yes,
my purte, which I had left in one pocket,
containing fJ5, was gene.
Just then Kvelyn meaned: "Ob, my
rings and breech are gene! I left them en
the drexser and they are net there."
"Ob, Evelyn!" 1 cried, "howleolish and
careless you were te leave your jewelry
there." '
"Ye, dear," Evelyn answered meekly,
"I ought te hae put It with your watch
under the pillow," aud as she spoke she re
moved both pillows and disclosed the fact
that my watch, tee, wa missiug.
"It would haebeeu easier for the burg,
lars If we had only pnt everlhlng they
wanted In eue place, you knew," Evelyn
added maliciously, "and 1 am se glad you
had your pistols handy, Jehn, dear."
Mollle in the meantime had disappeared
possibly at the juncture when 1 made a wild
rush for my clothing and she new reap
peared with tea wet eyes. " My room wi
entered, tee," she said, and f el my money
taken, and my geld ring "
"Neer mind, I'll make it all right with
you," 1 said, " but hew was It that you slept
through it all, Mellle T"
" I don't knew only it had been washing
day and i was very tired."
"Aud did jeu hear the deg at all ?"
"Ne; I don't lielieve he barked. 1 can't
understand It Perhaps they had drugged
blm during the day or something."
Oi course i sent for the police, and el
course they took an Inventory of the rooms
aud the missing articles, and of course they
looked wise and knowing, and of course that
was the last et it 1 paid Mellle her l-l, and
her lever, Jim, supplied another riug shortly,
and the domestic machinery weut en as be

" I don't smoke any mere than 1 used te,"
1 said. "1 hate kept just about se se for a

you. I knew by the quantity of cigars that

"Well, 1 will," I said, and I brought out

My wile frequently aent Mellle te make
household purchases, providing her with a
check out of whlch-tue butcher or baker took

" Why, your girl, Melila. Yeu knew she

she gets and I give her the change. Yester
day she brought this and get a can of oysters.
I told her tbe signature was net natural, but
she said you scratched It oil In a great hurry

Kvelyn had com Inte tha hall during the
conversation, and we looked at each ether In
dumb amazement Waa Mellle, our treas
ure, a forger?
"Call Motile, Evelyn," I said.
We all went Inte the library te await her
coming.
She came pretty, neat, smiling, with her
bright honest eyes, a picture of youth, sweet
ness and virtue.
" Mellle, did you present thla check te Mr.
Smith yesterday, and tell him 1 wrote my
name hi a great hurry, and get the money
upon It ?"
Mellle looked from one te the ether, grew
a shade paler, and then said calmly, " Yes, 1
did."
" Did you write my name en that check,
Mellle?"
" Yes, I did."
" Where did you get the check ?"
" 1 took it from your bank book when 1
cieaueu up meiturary one uay."
" Old y en ever de such a thing before ?"
Mellle hesitated.
" Speak 1 Kemember this Is a state prison
crime, aud your only salvation Ilea lu con
fession." " Yes, 1 have written your name te two
checks."
"Mr. Smith." I said, "I will settle this
matter with you another time."
Mr. Smith took his departure.
" Mellle," said Evelyn, "come with me.
l want te examine your trunk. It you will
forge you will steal." i
aieme louewea my wire witneut a weru,
and unlocked her trunk. Nothing short et
Neah's ark ever contained tbe variety of ar
ticles that were found In that trunk.
Sheets, pillow cases, stockings, ribbons,
laies, handkerchiefs, napkins, tea, cetlee and
sugar were a few of the Items.
"Hew long have you been stealing from
me, Mellle ?" asked Evelyn.
" Ever since I first came here."
"What did you take at first? Yeu must
tell me everything, Mellle."
Mellle was silent and sullen.
" Mellle," 1 said, " unless you are frank
and lull in your conlesslens It will go hard
with you. If you make a clean breast of It,
we may forgive you, and grant jeu a new
trial."
" Did you begin with small packages el tea
and sugar ?" asked Kvelyn, gently.
" Yes, ma'am."
" And you increased them until, of late,
you have taken r, or (1, or T, or 8 pounds each
month ?"
" Yes, ma'am, I think I took 10 pounds of
sugar last mouth."
" What did you de with it ?"
" 1 gave it te my aunt and my sister."
1 groaned aloud. " Ne wonder 1 thought
the grocer's bill gewlng, Evelyn. If the
author of Jehn Ualllax, gentleman, had a
domestic like Mellle, whose relatives were
fend of green tea, Bbe must have been tbe
Inspiration el that poem 'Green Things
Grewing.' " And then an inspiration seemed
te strike me.
" Mellle, did you take any cigars ? ' 1
queried in a teuder, insinuating voice.
" Yes, sir."
" Lets el cigars, Mellle, te give te your
beau Him ? Did you keep him well sup
plied ?"
" Yes, sir."
"Aha! Evelyn!" I cried. "Truth
crushed te earth will rise again. Virtue re
ceives lu reward at last Evelyn, beg my
pardon."
" Jehn, hew can you jest at such a time ?"
almost sobbed Evelyn. "1 leel perfectly
heart broken. Mellle, you can pack up and
go, we will net arrest you but leave the
house at once."
" Evelyn, that U unkind," I said. " We
must show this girl mercy. Let us give her
one mere trial."
" Very well, Mellie, you can stay If my
husband desires it We will hush this mat
ter up and never speak of it, but, remember,
if 1 cent's worth of anything is missing from
tbe heuse you will be held responsible and
discharged in disgrace. But we will give
you one mere opportunity te redeem your
repuiauen."
" Thank you," answered Mellle, meekly,
But the next morning she came te us te
say that she had decided net te remain.
" Othelle's occupation's gene," said Eve
lyn. " She won't stay if she can't steal. And
te think hew we loved and trusted that
girl !"
Alter Mellle bad been in her room some
time Evelyn suddenly made her appearance
there also.
" I have concluded that I will take a part
ing glance at tue contents of your trunk ue
fore you go." she said.
Mellie resisted stoutly, but Evelyn, with
tbe quiet force of a strong, calm nature, pro
ceeded with her Investigations. And what
aoyeu mink ane round uewn at me Dottem
el everything.
Why, all our sliver forks, which we had
supposed taken by tbe burglars. This was
the last straw. E velyn insisted upon placing
her in the custody of the police at once and
letting tbe law take its course. She waa
guilty of two crimes forgery and complicity
In housebreaking.
But when It came te tbe final Issue Evelyn
bad net tbe heart te proceed. All Mellle's
priceless virtues are before us both and plead
for ber. We concluded te let her go with
her blasted reputation aa her only punish
ment "Just before she took her departure I aald
te her :
" Mellle, aa a last parting confidence be
tween two souls with but a single thought,
tell me bow you managed te keep the deg
quiet the night you admitted the burglars ?"
" I abut him in my room," she replied,
and then tbe deer closed upon " our treas

Last week I noticed In tha I.ntm.ueknckr
that Lancaster new hsa an "Algenkln Club."
1 understand, tee, that the name of the club
Is the only thing that has been changed. In
alt ether respects It la te tetaln all the excel,
lent characteristic and features that made It
from its organization one of the meat respec
table, solid and successful clubs el our city,
combining the bast aecial features with ether
even higher purposes. Its ramp at Yerk
Furnace last August certainly waa a meat de
lightful one. Ha Ladles' Day waa a grand
success. And Its Annual Dinner, with Ita
ilew of wit and wisdom, an occasion long te
be remembered.
Tbe active aud genial president of the Al-
geuklns, Mr. Harry U. Moere, tells me that
there are going te be some notable improve
ments made at the annual camp this summer.
But as they are net yet fully matured I gueea
I had better net say anything about them
here. Tbe new name, however, la an Im
provement that la fully accomplished, and
most satisfactorily, tee. Certainly no bet
ter name for a club with the alms and plans
et this one could have been selected.
At first I thought the name Algenkln was
tee big, tee general. But it la net any bigger
than what tbe club alms te become and te ac
complish In the luture. A smaller aud mere
local, or specific name It might some time
have outgrown. It will hardly ever outgrew
the name Algenkln. Fer the Algenkln was
one of the two great Indian natleua who iu
early times were the sole possessors of the
whole vast region new embraced by Canada
and the eastern United States, north et the
thirty fifth parallel. The only rivals of the
Algenkins were the Iroquois, whose name
has already been appropriated by the famous
"Iroquois Club" or Chicago. Besides this
fact, there are ether reasons wby for the Lan
caster club tbe name Iroquois would net
have been nearly as appropriate as that of
Algenkln. Fer, according te Dr. Brlnten,
one el tbe highest authorities en the subject
in America, tbe Iroquois " were a race el
warriors, courageeus,cruel,unitnaglnatlve,but
el rare political sagacity. They are mere like
ancient Komans than Indians, and are lead
ing figures In the colonial wars." New these
are characteristics te which, 1 aui sure, cone
et the gentlemen or the Algenkln club care
te lay auy claim. They don't aspire te be
warriors, though their courage Is unques
tioned They are in no sense cruel, per
haps it was their mild and gentle, merciful
and syuiathetic, dlsoeltlen that kept them
from hooking mere than a few, a very lew,
of tbe sportive bass. Unimaginative they are
net as ait win uvtiiy wne usteneu te me
musical Improvisations of tbe club's gay and
festive troubadour. Ner de they profess any
political sagacity, but wish it te be distinctly
understood that their organization bus "no
political significance whatever."
The disposition and characteristics of the
Algenkln nation were much mere in accord
with these or tbe club that has taken ita
name. Saya Dr. Brlnten; "They were
mere genial than the Iroquois, or milder
manners and mere vivid fancy, and were re
garded by these with a curious mixture et
respect and contempt Seme writer has con
nected this dlllerence with their preference
for the open prairie country in contrast with
the endless and somber forest where were
the homes of tbe Iroquois. Their history
abounds in great men, whose ambitious
plans were foiled by the levity et their allies
and their want of persistence. They It waa
who under King Philip fought the Puritan
fathers; who at the Instigation of I'ontiae
deemed te death every while trespasser en
their soil ; who, led by Tecumseu and Black
Hawk, gathered the clana et tbe forest and
mountain for tbe last pitched battle et the races
In the Mississippi valley. Te them belong the
mua-mannerea lenni i,euspe, wne mue
foreboded tbe hand et Iren that grasped their
own se aeltly under the elm tree of Shack Shack
amaxen ; te them the restless Shawnee, the
gypsy of the wilderness; tbe Chi pe ways of
Lake Superior ; and also te them the Indian
girl Pocahontas, who In the legend averted
from tbe head of the white man tbe blew
which, rebounding, swept away her father
and all his tribe."
If I bad space I should like te give a sketch
of tbe religion, myths, and legends of the
Algenkins, as they have been collected and
explained by Dr. D. O. Brlnten, in bis valu
able work en " Myths of the New World,"
published some years age by Henry Helt A
Ce., and especially by Mr. Leland in his still
mere Interesting and recent book en " Algon Algen
kln Legends of New England," published
bv UeuahtOD. Mifllin A. Ce. The latter has
1 believe, made some material additions te
and corrections el Dr. Brtnten's researches in
the same general field of study. Perhaps
some day, wnen l get nr. i.eianus uoek, i
shall tell mere about it He haa carefully
examined and diclphered much of the New
England picture writing of the Algenkins,
and I have an Idea that perhaps his work
miaht hele some of the members of the club
materially, or at least by suggestion, If any of
mem intena te siuay tue uisrugiypuics en
the rocks in the Susquehanna. At any rate.
it la a book that the members el the club
ought te get and read.
Ne doubt. It one could only get at the early
history et our country, If the rocks and trees
along the river could tell us of all that they
have witnessed, from the days when Capt
Jehn Smith paddled up the river nearly if
net quite up te xera rurnace, ana wnen
perchanee the lovely Pocahontas herself left
the Impress of her dainty moccasins en tbe
mess where new stands the pavilion. If all
the history et these early provincial daya
could be revealed, aa we nope some time It
will tie by our Historical Society, there
would be abundant material found for many
a romance aa Intensely Interesting and deeply
pathetie aa the late Jehn Esten Coeke's " My
Lady Pocahontas," made doubly charming
read, aa I did last summer, te tbe accompani
ment of the Susquehanna's murmuring
waes, and. the whispering et tbe ancient
trees overhead, there en tbe river hills which
may themselves have heard tbe war cry of
Powhattan's braves, or even seen the re
doubtable Smith himself, IX net the graceful
form el the little Algenkln princess.
I have been reading quite a different kind
of a romance the last lew days, however, all
the mere romantle and Interesting because
wholly true and free from even the slightest
auspiclen of llctlen. It la nothing leas than
Prof. Mendenhali'a little work, recently la
aued by Houghten Mltllln A- Ce., of Bosten,
entitled A Century of Electricity. It la a
clear concise, and yet comprehensive enough
account of tbe progress that haa been made in
electxie science during the last hundred
years, that la, virtually, from the beginning
el the science up te iu present condition.
And what a marvelous history It is I 'though
told as soberly and briefly aa possible, with
no fine-writing, no atralnlug after dramatic
ttleet, scarcely any werda of enthusiasm
even, tbe mere plain recital of the facta ia ab
sorbingly Interesting, and as wonderful aa
any romance ever written or any fiction aver
Invented. What Professer Mendenhali
doesn't knew of the subject isn't worth
knowing. There Is probably no ether man
In the country aa mucn at home with It aa he,
and fortunately be ia also possessed of tha
literary skill te tell what ba knewa In lan
guage almost entirely free from technicalities,
and easily intelligible even te one who knewa
as little about the technicalities of the science
as I da
The Initial chapter of the book la Intro
duced by a letter of Benjamin Franklin
which la interesting enough te bear repro
duction. It la dated at Philadelphia, April
29, 1749, and addressed te Pater Collinaeu el
Londen. Thla ia what it aaya :
"Chagrined little that we have hitherto
been able te produce nothing in thla way of
use te manxinu ; ana we net weatner com
ing en, when eleetral experiments are net ae
agreeable, tt ia proposed te put an end
te them for thla aaaaen aemewhat humor

charge of guns from tbe efecfricai battery."
In b feet note Franklin explained that"Aa

One cannot read this volume, la which are
traced ae dearly the different atepa aad
stages through which electrical science haa
rushed, "Irem tha rubbing of a bit et amber,
te the telegraph, the telephone, the electric
light, aud tbe electric railway," without
fully agreeing with the author that It " gees
far te Justify the most extravagant praise
which, even by poetical license, man haa be-
stewed upon himself." At tha aame time
that one must marvel at tha Ingenuity and
fertility of mau's mind, the connected hla hla
tery of this science shows, perhaps mere
clearly than any ether, that te no one man
belongs tbe praise. Edisen la only the end

en hla predecessors, the result of their labors,
Impossible without them, aa the elTeet ia Im

any one country deserving or mere credit
than another ; for all have contributed te the
terglng et the chain. The meat fundamen
tally important discoveries of tha last hun

grown and around whleh they all cluster,
boieng respectively te Italy, which gave us
Oalvanl and Velta ; te Denmark, which pro
duced Oersted ; te Prance, where Ampere
waa born, and te England, the home of
Michael Faraday.
It may be that this conclusion la net alto
gether agreeable te our American vanity,
which somehow or ether haa tried te monop
olize the great bulk of glory In the matter of
electricity. But thla Is altogether the result
et Ignorance, such aa a fair and full account
like Prer. Mendenhali'a cannot fail te correct.
It we are distinguished In the matter at all,
It la net for any specially great and Important
contributions te electrical science, but rather
te me art, tne application of tbe science te
commercial and practical purpesea.
Take, for example, the telegraph, whleh
la popularly claimed aa wholly A ner lean. Aa
early as KVJ a Russian, Baren Schilling, had
a system of needle-telegraph In satisfactory
operation. A little later two Germans, Uauss
and Weber, established a successfully operat
ing line atUettlngen. In 1&I7 another Ger
man, Stelnheil bad constructed several miles
et telegraph from Munich le various points
In tbe vicinity, which were elllclally sanc
tioned by the government, and were un
doubtedly the first electric telegraph wlrea
erected for commercial purposes. Tbe needle
telegraph, be it remembered, Is tbe one still
used for the transmission of messages ever
the ocean cables. Tue tint working model
of Merse's telegraph waa completed In 1835,
whose chief peculiarity aud improvement
was the recording Instrument be Invented.
It was net till 1S4I. however, that bis experi
mental line, with underground wires from
Washington te Baltimore was built He that
the claim te priority is certainly uet eur'a.
Much less Is the claim te originality In ahy
Important features et the telegraph. Aa Prof.
Mendenhali frankly cenfesass: "In the Merse
telegraph are found, the battery; for which
credit must be given primarily te Velta, and
then te Dantell,wheln ls3ti devised a battery

rent is put in operation, which was used by
Henry and also by Wheatatene; the line wire
auspended en poles a method first practically
used by Dr. W. O'Shaugbneesy at Calcutta
in ls39.'
The explanations given in thla little book
et the principles and application of electrical
science, from Ualvaal'a battery dewa te the
electrle light, telephone, and electrte aaoter,
are aa interesting aadae clear aa la the his
tory et their Invention and develepassat 1
am sure that I knew mere about the whole

And ittsaanbjectonwhichneonewaataaeid
