OF DICK'S FINANCES.
Di.'k SiunJcra off to boarding school
for the tirat :un and I'ncle Joaeph Vll
taking advantage of the -t to inatill aomr
good ndrice luto the young mfajMl'l
niuid.
"Don't be extravagant," lis said, aa he
slipped a live-dollar gold ptsea into hit
nephew' hand.
"Don't spend your money for eadjr,"
continued I'mle .loseph, "or buy a lot ol
useless toys. You'll lind your money go
soon enough without that; won't he, Tom?"
Tom, Dick's elder brother, readily re
plied: '"Xo mistake about that, un. le. lie won't
bring much hack, I'll be bound."
"Now, I'll tell you what I'll do," raid
Uncle Joseph, "just to eu.ourage you to be
careful with your cash: whatever sum you
bring back with you, I'll double it."
"Oh, thank you, uncls!" exclaimed Dick,
seeing him. elf the future possessor of still
uiore wealth; for how could he spend live
dollars in three months, when Tom had
given him two dollars mil his Aunt Mary
had presented him with a like amount "
There is no doubt, however, that I nele
Joseph's promise did a great deal to check
undue expenditure on Dick's part. Still,
the money melted away somehow, a great
dial more quickly than be could have be
lieved possible, and when the weeks had
flown by and only live days more remained
before the holiday began, Dick was more
grieved than astonished to lind that his
total assets amounted to one dollar, a nickel
aud a two-cent postage stamp.
"That isn't much t" Re', doubled," he said
to himself. "It's lucky they pay our fare
home for us."
Aa he waa counting his money a boy
named Brand passed by. Brand was older
than Dick, and was reputed to be a singu
larly good hand at a bargain. He had tried
to sell various articles to Dick during the
last few weeks, but hitherto without suc
cess. Hut he was now the possessor of a
treasure which raised Dick's envy to a high
degree.
This was a baseball and a bat with which
its owner had twice made home runs in
school matches. Diok'l bat showed signs
of splitting, and he very much wanted a
new one.
"Hullo, Dick!" exclaimed Brand. " bunt
ing over your riches?"
"Not much of them," replied Dick, eying
the bat.
"That's a pity, for I thought you might
like to buy my bat and 1 Kill. Simkin told
me you wanted them."
"80 1 do, but I can't afford it."
"How much have you got '" asked Brand.
"Only u dollar," was the desponding re-
ply. .
"Well, I can't let then go under one and
a quarter, and that's very . heap. But look
here: give me the dollar now. and I'll trust
you till irext term for the quarter. That's
fair enough, isn't it?"
"No, I can't do it," said Dick. "T want
to take the money home."
"Take it home? W'hnt a queer idea!
Tnn't you gt -ome mote given you when
you get home?"
Dick explained how he was situated,
Brand's face lightened considerably when
ie heard the difficulty.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" he
isked. "Look here. I'll show you the way
to work it. Yotl give me the dollar, and I'll
lend you thr.c dollars for you to take buck
1 nil get doubled; then you Can send me the
three and a quarter back, and still have two
seventy five of vour own, as well as the bat
and ball."
Dick hesitated. It struck him that the
offer, though tempting, had s.itnet hing
about it which waa not quite straightfor
ward. Hut thore was the bat aud ball only
waiting for him to take thsin. and Brand
was eager to persuade him to el OSS the bar
gain, in a few minutes it was all settled,
lad Dick was the possessor of the envied
articles.
Now tht1 he had so much money in hand,
he could not resist a final visit to the vil
lage, where he spent f0 cents more than he
intended. However, he reached home with
two dollars in his pocket, so lie felt he was
ill right.
A shock awaited him. I'ncle Joseph had
gone to New York, and would not be back
tor a week.
He waited a couple nf days, and then n
letter raine from Brand, asking him why he
hail not sent the money.
Dick did not like to write and ask him to
Wait, o he took the unwise course of not
answering the letter.
lie spent the next day or two very un
easily, and then eamo the bad news that
I'ncle Joseph would not return for another
week. Worse tii. 111 tiiat, ut dinner tune a
telegram came for Dick, aud Tom naturally
wanted to know who on earth could be tel
egraphing to him.
"It's from Brand," said Did;, who now
felt frightened, and saw he must make a
confession.
"I'rom Ilrand!" exclaimed Tom. "Do you
owe him any money?"
"No; but I promised to lend him three
dollars and a quarter."
"ltut you told me you bad brought back
two dollars," said Tom. "Send him that,
and here's a dollar and a quarter to male
it up."
Dick was delighted, and tried to turn the
conversation; but Tom's suspicions were
iroused, and he began tonsk awkward ques
tions. The upshot of it was that Dick had to con
fess, by degrees, how much he had spent
during the term for one thing and another.
Tom mentally calculated the total, and
saw that it was Impossible that Dick could
have brought back two dollars. He began
to look grave.
"I'm afraid there's something wrong,
D o';," he said. "What's been going on?
Make a clean breast of it."
There was no help for it, nnd Dick had
to confess the whole truth. s he did, be
saw what a dishonest trick lie had been
playing.
"Why. Dick, I should never have be
lieved it of you." exclaimed Tom. "Don't
you see that you've tried to cheat uncle out
i l his money? And so you told me that you
prOuuMb to lend Brand some money,
when renlly you owe it to him."
"This will be a lesson for yon," said Tom.
"I'll put it right now. Give me all tin
money you have."
Dick handed it over willingly,
Toqj then wrote a letter to Brand, whom
he knew well as one of the pests of Hale
hursl, nnd told him in very plain words
what he thought of him.
He sent him back one dollar and his bat
and bail, and told him that, unless he re
ceived an immediate letter of apology aud
regret, the professor would be mnde ac
quainted with the whole transaction.
The reply came by return of post, and was
as apologetic as it c mid well be.
Dick parted with his bat and ball with
out a murmur, and when his uncle returned
and asked him how much he had brought
back with him he would not even mention
the half dollar which he had actually saved.
He never allowed himself, either, to be
led by the tempter on to so dangerous a by
path agaiu. tioldea Day a.

Henry D. Lennox, a resident of Glas

Mr. Lennox calculates Hint ut the

"When the ( arncgics left Dunferm

to the extent ;i 11 shillings, but the

escaped the memory of the benerl

TO USE WIRELESS TELEGRAPH

Experiments with wireless teleg

Will soon be made between Tatoosh

to Paget sound. At .me time the gov
ernment maintained a station for re
porting nnd observation "ii the is
land, but the cable to Nonll bay broke
several years ago, nnd sii then ves
tals, have been reported from Noah
bay. The government now proposes
to reestablish the Tatoosh Island sta
tion and to r.-open telegraphic com
munication with the mainland. If
the experiment with wireless teleg
raphy fails, 11 cable will be laid be
tween the island nnd Neah bay. Ow
ing to currents and rocks between
the Island 11 ml the mainland, the life
of n cable olT ( ape Flattery is very
short, so the government will do its
best to make wireless telegraphy a
success in order to Rave the cost of
expensive cables. A reserve lias been
set aside nt Tatoosh island, and plans
and specifications have been made
for a station to cost $.1,000. It is ex
pected that bids will be called foV ut

Baldwin Sails for the Pole,
The ships, of the Bnld wln-Zeigler
arctic expedition weighed anchor at
Tromsoe, Norway,' the other night
about midnight and, with the stars
and stripes and Norwegian Hags at
th"ir masts, steamed ..IT to the
north. As they left the hnrbor the
crews of llio other vessels in the
harbor gave the expedition a part
ing cheer. Evelyn B. Baldwin, chief
of the expedition, was 111 excellent

bad little doubt of reaching the

In the days when Thomas Doggett,
"the famous comedian." gave bis coat
and badge to perpetuate his loyalty
to the ftrst prince of the house of
Hanover, the Watermen were still in
full force, and their connection with
the actors (a point seldom understood
hitherto) is explained by a petition
which they sent in to the privy coun

praying that t he playhouses (Sliukes
peare's among others) might be re
