"She has got 5,000," said the old
man "and she's a good girl. She'll be
a catch for somebody."
Then I thought he looked at me.
"Why should he look at mef I
thought "I'm not a husband worth
angling for, as he knows very well,
this man who pays me my small salary
every.week with his own hands."
iMlStillihe.did look at me, and I ans
wered witnTaT'wordf or two; I forget
what now.
"Yes," hfl said, talking with a mean
ing, too, looking at me evidently to see
how I took the news; "yes and what
do you suppose she does with it? Has
it locked up in my fireproof safe in ray
fireproof vault; doesn't use it in any
way; doesn't get interest on it; locks it
up as she does her rings and pins, and
lets it lie never touchpd."
"I wonder you don't give her better
advice," I said.
"Give a woman advice 1" he said.
"Try it. However, I approve of this.
Better keep her dowry locked up safe
than risk and lose it. I'm her guardian.
Her father and I had quarreled, you
know. But when be died he left her
and her money in my care. A nice
thing for an old bachelor to have a
young nice quartered on him for lifel
I'll marry her off as soon as I can. I
say, Fisher, come up and take tea with
me to-night."
He did mean it! He offered his niece
ana io.uuu to me! ue uai never
liked me either.
"Shall I got" I asked myself. I was
not a man to be bought by money, if
she were a coarse and vulgar creature
like her uncle; but otherwise why not
neo what she was made of J At least it
could do no harm to take tea with old
Simon Giddings. I went home with
him that evening. I noticed some lit
tle changes in the parlor, asJ-jiough a
ladv'a hand had bcn'husv there, an,!

in deep mourning. i
"Margaret, Mr. Fisher; my- niece,
Miss Giddings, Toin,"said the old man;
and as I bowed I saw a little velvet
headed crutch leaning against the girl's
chair. She was lame then. Old Gid
dings thought this an obstacle to her
making a good match so lie offered her
to Tom Fisher.
"It won't do, old man," I thought.
"I shouldn't mind a plain face, so much,
dut a lame wife will never do for me.
Then something whispered faintly in
my ear: "5,0001" For the rest Miss
Giddings was fair and pleasant in her
manner. She was a lady, too, which
seemed odd for old Simon's niece, for
he was as vulgar as he was rich; and
she sang to us after tea very sweetly.
I liked a girl . with dash and color,
and still her blue eyes and sweet smile
haunted me a little after I went home.
"She'll never quarrel with one," I
thought; and a woman worth 5,000
vould be a catch certainly; but that
crutch! I'll stay away from old
Simon's house for the future."
But he would not let me stay away;
he kept on urging me to go home with
him. There was a Marian Moore. Per
haps she liked me a little I admired
her intensely; but she had no money,
and I should take her away from her
snug home to some poor sort of place if
I married her. I should find " it hard
work to feed andLtcloihe Jier decently.
This fair sweet Margaret was ricli,
and as time passed on I began to see
her liking for me. And I sat in the
office one day, three months from J.he
time of my first visit, wondering
whether I could bo quite sure that I
should be good enough to the 1'ttle
thing I rapant to marry for her money,
to keep her from knowing that there
was no actual love for her in my heart.
And as I pondered, the voice of old
Simon reached my ears: "Tom Fisher,
up in the moon again, eh? Well, well,
when a fellow is in love we excuse lazi
ness in him. There's my niece Marga
ret pouring the tea in the slop basin
and oversetting the milk at breakfast.
'Maggie,' says I, 'you're a-thinking of
some one, an' ye.' She blushed to her
ears. You've manaced to get into
some good graces in that quarter,Tom."
"Do you think so?" I said.
"I know so," said the old man. "I
ought not to say so, you know but I'm
frank."
I listened to him then, two voices
whispering to me.
"You don't love her," said one.
'You don't hate her," said the other.
"You do want 5,000," said the other.
It would mako a man of you. You"
could go into business on your own ac
count. You'd cease to be a slave in
this dingy office."
Five thousand pounds! said I to my
self. Then I started to my feet.
"Mr. Giddings," I said, "would you
be willing to give your niece to me as
my wife?"
''Tom Fisher, I'd giy her to any de
cent young man. A girl bothers me;
I'm tired of the charge. Every one
doesn't want a lame wife. If yon like
her, take her, and on your wedding
day I'll hand the 5,000 to you and be
rid of the charge."
I turned faint and sat down to my
desk; but went to old Simon's house
that night and saw Margaret. She look
ed as fair and happy as a child. I sat
down by her and took her hand.
"Are you going to say 'No,' Mag
gie?" I said, and she lifted her innocent
lips to mine and kissed me. "I'll be
very, very good to you."
But there was no lover's warmth in
my heart; only a kind of gentle pity
for the girl who was to bring me
5,000. We were engaged. Old Simon
joked us coarsely, and seemed to exult
over the affair. I might even have
doubted the existence of the 5,000,
but that Maggie told me of it herself.
"Uncle was keeping it for me to live
on when I was an old maid," she said;
"but you shall do what you choose
with the money when I belong to you.
We'll buy a pretty house, shan't we,
dear, first of all, and live there all our
lives somewhere where we can have
a garden?"
So, after that, I never doubted, but
clung to the idea as I could not if I
had loved the girl. We were married
in a fortnight. Uncle Simon and his
old housekeeper alone were present. It
had touched me a good deal when Mar
garet had whispered that s'ne had rather
JiayeJTweddmg party. J -
fey "Fancy'tKe.'brideiinipW up'thVaisIe,
upon -p. crutchLVahe said. i'Letjne. be
married with none-to stare at me. Yom
lore me, so I don't care about being
lame any more, but I'd rather not be
stared at."
I took her in my arms and kissed
her then.
"I'll bo good to her," I said as the
clergyman uttered his prayer "very,
verj good;" and I was saying it again
when I sat with my wife in old Simon's
parlor, and he coming in, stood twink
ling his eyes at us maliciously.
"So it's over," he said, with his fiend
ish chuckle. "She's yours; now for the
5,000. I'm going to hand it over to
night. I shall sleep better."
I blushed with shame. "Not yet,"
I said; don't talk of money yet."
"No," said Simon. "But I will,
though; I've got it here." And he un
locked a sideboard which stood in the
room and brought out a small roll done
up oddly enough in brown paper.
"There it is," said he, "there it is.
Look at it; count it. Five thousand,
plum. Count it!"
"He fairly grinned as he spoke. She
smiled. I saw something in hit laugh
that made me shudder. Without a
word more I walked to the table, open
ed the parcel and spread out tha notes.
There was 5,000 worth of them, read
ing the value on their faces; but they
were the notes of the Diddleton & Bil
kem Bank, which had failed years ago!
1 had been deceived. The girl I had
married was penniless!
"Impaster!" I yelled. Old Simon
yelled with a roar of laughter.
"Good joke," he said. "I have done
what I ha e promised. You've got
the 5,000; I didn't tell you what it
was in. Of course such money is of
no use to you; but I can't help that.
Ha, hal"
I think I should have given him a
blow, but just then I heard Margaret
screaui. I looked at her. I saw, as I
had known before, that she had no
hand in the deception. I saw an avful
look in her eye, a doubt of my love
trembling on her lip. I saw her rise
and falter on her poor feet and stretch
her arms toward me. I heard her cry,
"Thomas, 1 did not know!" and then
oh, thank God for it! the love I had
never felt before rushed into my heart
a great allconquering love.
I ran to her. I took her in my
arms. I gave her the first kiss of
passionate and new-born love, and I
said: "Margaret, try and hear poverty
with mo for I love you better than my
soul."
And all Margarets money the
money that faded before me like fairy
gold could never have given me half
the joy that the wealth of love given to
and received from her gave me upon
our bridal day, gave me in all the first
struggling years of wedded life, and
will give me, God grant it, until the
end.
STCIUCOAT O.V KLAMATH LAKE.
ThenewsteamerjustbuiltforThatcher
Si Worden at Linkville, for navigating
Klamath Lake, will be one of tho
greatest benefits to the people of that
section yet introduced. It will do all
the business in the way of freight and
passenger transportation from Linjc
ville to Klamath Reservation and Ft.
Klamath, as well as other points on
the lake and small streams emptying
into the lake. This lako is about "37
miles in length and 1C inileain width,
and for steamer excursions is one bf
the loveliest and most picturesque.
The Klamath Indian Agency, where
some eight or nine hundred Indians
are quartered, is on Wood river, about
4 miles from (he lake, and 4 milet
further up this stream is Fort Klamath.
The steamer will endeavor to reach
Fort Klamath, the only difficulty being
the short turns in the stream, which
can be cut away. If tho boat cannot
reach the Fort, she can get within one
mile of it, which will be a great ad
vantage. The short turn a mile below
the Fort could be cut away without
any very great amount of work, the
stream being plenty deep enough all
the way up to and above the Fort, with
room enough at the Fort for turning
round to come back. It usually takes
about 10 or 12 hours to make the trip
by stage, owing to the round about
way and bad condition of the wagon
road, while the steamer can make it in
less than four hours. It is the inten
tion of tho owners of tho steamer co
tow burges in hauling freight and a3
there is no current good time can be
made, and communication afforded with
all the islands, and with all the little
streams emptying into the lake. In
the course of time, an effort may
be made to build a canal with locks
at Link river, which joins Big Klam
ath with Little Klamath Lake, tha lat-
'cduldrahwvcontinue downTtbe-,KIamalh-'c'
rjvci itjmr uiiiciiia, iub runiuH ot
Xink river would not permit steauieV
navigation, unless locks could be put
in it. By such an improvement a
steamer could come down to Butte
Creek Valley in this county, and thence
to Whittle's ferry on the Klamath, in
nddition to navigating all the water
above Linkville. Linkville is said to
be improving greatly, many buildings
going up and the population rapidly
increasing by newcomers. The daily
mail for that country ought to connect
with Yreka, as the principal bulk of
the mail comes from the south, and
goes to Ashland and thence to Link
ville, double distance, except the first
day of the week, when the two weekly
mails leave Yreka, one via Butte creek
and the other via Klamath river. A
daily mail from Yreka to Linkville
would save one half tho time required
to send the Eastern and Southern mails
via Ashland, as Linkville is the same
distance from Ashland as from Yreka,
and Yreka is over 45 miles south of
Ashland with the high Siskiyou inter
vening to make the distance equal to
60 on an ordinary level road. Yreka
Journal.
From E. H. Autenrieth, who arriv
ed in town last Friday, we l-arn that
the railroad surveyors from Oregon,
are surveying to the Klamath river.be
ing now on this side of Cole's. He
thinks they will run a line to strike
the Klamath, a short distance above
Bell's ferry, which continued this side
