JUG If WAUE IN ENGLAND
The administration organs have been
trying to defend free trade by asserting
that wages are higher in unprotected
Great Britain than any other part of
Europe. This claim was or is based on
statistics several years old, and docs not
apply to the existing condition of affairs
in England If there is any doubt on
that point the following item from a
recent Birmingham paper would dissipate
it promptly:
THE STRIKE IX THE OCN-LOCK. TRADE.
The ojeratives on strike in the gun-lock
trade at Darlaston decided on Wednes
day evening to issue an apppeal to the
general public for support, in which they
set forth that, after paying expenses.they
were unable to earn more tfinn Is. 2d. n
'day of 14 or 15 hours. They demand an
increase of 2d. per lock, whchiif grant
ed, would enable them to earn about 10.

1' HOT JSC T AMERICAN
I N T E 11 E H T S.
If the people of the United States
should adopt the free trade idea should
conclude to purcha-c abroad everything
they consume that can be purchased
cheaper than at home, is it not plain that
two-thirds of our people would have no
employment and, therefore, no money
wherewith to purchase supplies, even
though Hour be worth but $1 per bund
and beef one rent per pound? Ami is it
not also plain that to the extent that wc
purchase abroad such articles as can be
produced nt home a cu rtain proportion
of our people must be condemned to en
forced idleness and, therefore, io poverty,
ignorance and degradation.
Tin: people of the United States, like
the people of all civilized nations, are
compelled to contribute to the support
of government, and all the mule inhabi
tants of militfiry age arc under obligation
to risk their lives in defense of that gov
ernment in the event of war. Is it not,
therefore, both just and expedient that
our own citizens be preferred in our
markets over foreigners- not merely
placed upon on equlity with them? Giv
ing the preference to our own citizens
implies no enmity, no hostility to the
people of other rations, for we recognize
the right of other nations to prefer their
people ov r us; and even if we did not
they would exercise tint right have al
ways done so and always will. Ohio

"THE BITER BIT
Maj. Do Laney was sitting at his club
in Chirles street smoking IIo was. for
the tuno being, alone, and not only was
his faeo serious, but he was drawing at
his eiirar with a certain fierceness which
denoted anirer and annoyance.
'Hollo. Do Imey," cried a well known
voice. "What's up? You look as crrave
as an undertaker."
"And you as though you would soon
require my servieea. I may safely echo
your question! Why, Vane, you are but
tho fchadow of tho merry lad who joined
us not many years ago. You're going tho
paro too fast.
"I know it; but it's too late to put the
drag on.
".Not a bit of it. It is never too late to
mend turn over a new leaf."
"I would if I could tear out the old one,
a la Dilke; but I'm in debt and diiUculties,
and cannot extricate myself.
The major continued to pull strongly at
bis cigar, and silence fell between them.
"Charlie," he said, looking up sud
denly, "I'm off home to-morrow to York
shire. The preserves are good lots of
young birds, and this is only the 1st of
September. I should have started yester
day, you may be sure, but for something
which has rather put me out and detained
me here against my will. And now, my
boy, suppose you accompany me; it will
give you plenty of time to confide your
troubles to me, if you feel Inclined. I
have asked a few good fellows down, and
my dear old mother and prettv little
sister will make you welcome. They
always come and take care of mo and my
friends at mv littl shooting box, and de
clare they like it, although it cannot be
half so comfortable as their own home."
"But they have your society to makeup
for it."
"lhat Is what tney say. 'lliey are
weak enough to believe in me completely,"
he laughed.
"Not so very wrong, either," returned
Charles Vane with a smile, "but aro you
sure - they wouldn't think me an awful
bore?"
"Quite; they extend their welcome to
my friends. Shall we start by the after
noon train?"
"It is awfully good of you."
"And you will come?"
"I should like it muchly it was a
lucky chance for me which kept you in
town, It'B an ill wind which brings good
to no one."
"Then that is settled. It is the first
time I have ceased to feel savage for the
past two days."
"That is not much in your lino either,
major. Your circumstances and disposi
tion seem generally to make life an easy
matter with you."
"Well, I'm a bit off the line now. It is
not pleasant to receive a demand from a
man you don't know, to return him a
thousand pounds which you have never
borrowed, now is it?"
"By Jove, no! Who has been trying on
that game with you?"
"Cheatham, the advertising money
lender of Swindle street."
"Tho deuce ho has! lie's tho sharpest
old beggar in town; Jew to the backbone,
although ho eats pork like a Christian,
aud would produce his baptismal certili
cate at a few hours' notice if you doubted
hi s assurance of his religious views. There
is no dodge ho is not up to."
"Well, it is a case of the 'biter bit this
time; he has been had, at last."
"What, old Cheatham? I'd like to shake
hands with the man who could outwit
him."
"I don't think I should."
"I'm all curiosity, major; do tell me
about It."
"Well, the day before yesterday I had
got my leave, and had made up my mind
to travel from Plymouth by the night
train, when I received a letter from tho
money lender, telling me my hill was due,
and requesting immediate payment of tho
same. I wired back that there must bo
soiko mistake, as I had given him no bill,
and received a return telegram saying
There was no mistake whatever.' Upon
which I took this strange communication
over to the colonel, and asked his advice.
It was to run up to London at once, and
sift the matter. I did so, and here I am."
"And what about the bill?"
"It had been given him by some one re
presenting himself to bo me, and very
cleverly the rascal did it. He called et
Cheatham's olSce and sent in his card,
'Maj. George De Lancy, 176th Fusiliers.'
"The eagle eyed one of course saw him,
and by his own account was very polite.
"The 6trauger 6eems to have been a
man of about my own age, of millitary
and gentlemanly appearance.
"lie told Cheatham that he had inde
pendent means, but that he was for the
moment inconvenienced for a little ready
money in consequence of some family
matters, and that he had made up hia
mind to borrow 1,000, hut from who
ever he might get it he Bhould require o
promise of Btnct secrecy, and the sum
should be returned in three months, but
he would permit no inquiries to be made
concerning him.
. "He was not in the habit of borrowing,
and it would ennoy him greatly if the
transaction became known.
"Mr. Cheatham promised Implicit obe
dience, swore never to betray the major's
confidence, and asked when the money
would be yequlred, as he might not be
abl to supply It for a day or two.
"His client told him with nonchalance
that thero was no hurry whatever the
ail air was not pressing, a week hence
would do for him admirably, and Cheat
ham, unctuously rubbing his hands to
gether, said that would suit him exactly;
ppoa which the stronger took up his hat
and gloves and turned to the door, but
Mr. Cheatham was there before him,
bowing hira out with his extra best
cringe.
"Of course he did make inquiries, ha
admits the fact, and found that my credit
was good, and that I was the owner of a
Couple of estates, and he was more than
satisfied.

paced tho otiiee in a fury

"lie begged and prayed and implored
till the majors anger cooied. and to

at last consented to take tho 1,000 for
which ho had bargained, showing the
most utter indifiercuco about it. Tho

notes and handed them to him, and the
major lett tno oflice

"No, and never will; ho changed the

cleverest trick 1 have ever heard of.
"Poor beggar. I hope he'll reform,"
said Charlio Vane; "and, by jove! I'm

ruined many a good fellow who had got
mercilessly entangled in his net. Of
course, you're not responsible in any

"The affair has annoyed me; it is a new
and unpleasant experience to be mixed up

"I wish it were with me," sighed Vane
"Come, dine with me, and to-morrow
we will go north; let us both forget oui
troubles.
"Easier said than done, De Lancy. II

of that strange article which does duty

generate da3rs."
Charles vane extended his hand aud
grasped that of his friend.
"Major, you're a brick," he said with
feeling. "I'll try to bo a better fellow, if
only to gain your good opinion.
It was actually dark when Mai De
Lancy's dog cart turned into the gateway
or his pretty little place,
"They don't expect 3-011, but thev wil.

said. "Stay, there is one of tho game
keepers; drive on and I'll speak to him
and bo after 3-011 in a minute," and th
major jumped out.
Charies Vane e.lighted beforo the hall
door, which almost immediately opened
and in another moment two solt arm-
were about his neck.
"You dear, dear old pet,"cri'd nsilvery
voice, "I have been watching for 3-011 fr
an age; how late you ere. and how glad '
am to see you," and she not ou!y gave him
a ling, but a very decided kiss.
Then she recoiled a little.
"Ceorge, I never will forgive you!'' sh?
cried; "you Lave been cutting your raus
tache. It is not half tho size it was, aud
it was such a beauty."
Muj. Do Lancv was crossing tho lawn,
and his footsteps gave back no sound
Ho broke into a hearty laugh, and there
was a suppressed chuckle from tho direc
tion of the liorso's head, where stood the
groom hidden by the darkness.
"Don't alarm yourself, Rosie," said her
brother, "I bavo not shortened a hair."
For one moment tho girl stood.' as it
were, spell bound. The next she pushed
Charles Vane aside with strange power
Tor sueu sol t arms.
"You wretch!" she cried, and fled
through the lighted hall like ask- rocket
Charles Vane was a long time making
Rose forgive him for what was alter ali
no fault of his, but he could not forget
the touch of her ripe lips nor tho pressure
of lier rounded arms, and he was very
patieut and persistent with her.
. IIo liked her all tho better, perhaps, for
her spirit and tho annoj-auce sho felt, and
made up his mind to conquer tho antag
onisra with which she met him after the
contretemps.
When she did forgive liim she did it
royally.
And. Maj. De Lancy forgavfc him, too,
when he confessed that beautiful Rose
had consented to be his wife.
Sir Percy Vane, Charlie's father, was
asked down, and there was no doubt
about Rose's power to wheedle him. He
was totally "mashed.
For her sake he paid off every penny of
her fiance's debts, and, moreover, prom
Ised a liberal allowance to enable tho
young man to marry. "I don t express a
wish, mv dear, lie said, before he took
his leave, "that you will make my boy
happy vou couldn't fail to do it but 1
earnestly hope he will inakoyou so. I am
glad to think that when I pay the debt of
