A CoailrraMe Amount to ht Pour t Fort
Cnnljjr.
The government has for some time had
in contemplation the building of a largo
bulkhead at Fort Canby to protect tho
fort and vicinity from the waters of
IJakt-rs bay. llids were advertised for in
Tkk Aktokian and were opened at noon
yesterday at the fort by First Lieutenant
L. A. Chaniberliu.
The work consists of a single row of
piles driven five feet from center capped
with planks 4x15 inches and faced on the
outside with three-inch plank spiked on.
The rip-rap work is to be laid smooth
on the outer face and packed against the
bulkhead on both .sides, not less than
three fet-t thick at the top and sloping
downward. The whole work is about .",
SH ft t long and six feet high.
There were sixteen bids in yesterday
from all parts of the country." Surpre

is the intention to let the contracts and
go on with tho work as soon as possible.
As soon as tho piles are driven and the
riprap constructed there will ho a big lot
of earth filling from the shore side to bo
done. This, however, will ha done by a
gang of twenty-eight prisoners, who will

ItrPEltrS BACKET.
'I havo been waiting for you, Itupert,"
Desdemona McCafferywas a witching
strawberry blonde with dreamy brown
eyes and a large, luxuriant foot that at
tracted attention wherever she went.
Careless aud trifling in mast things, and
and little recking whether she hadpio or
radishe3for breakfast, her love forBu
pert Hetherington was the ono absorb
ing passion of her life. "When ho was by
her side life was like a beautiful day in
June.
"I am never unhappy when you are
with ine, darling,' she said, nestling her
head on Itapert's sheulder: "but when
you are away everything is dreary, and
dismal, and forlorn. Did it never occur
to you of what antagonistic emotions the
life of woman is made up?"
4,It never did," replied Bupert. "I have
been too busy this week trying to figure
up how I came out in those pools that
Ben Worsley sold mo on the Capitals of
Salem.
For an instant there was silence. The
shriek of the Telephone and tho bleat of
a calf on the hillside wero the only sounds
they heard. Present Iv Desdemona spoko
again.
"But it is so. Bupert," she said.
Flamo and ice, poison and perfume,
smiles and tears, roses and upas, passion
and abnegation these are what tho gods
cast into the caldron from which camo
woman'
"But your sex is fickle, is it not?" said
Rupert." "You know the old saying
'Woman, thy name is Flaherty.'"
Desdemona looked at him steadily a
moment.
"I presume you refer," she said, in
cold, better-come-in-before-your-ears-are
frozen tones, "to the line which reads:
'Frailty, thy name is woman.' "
"I guess likely,' was tho reply, "but I
really can not see why women should
buck-jump around so much."
"It is because you do not understand
their nature. A woman loves some man
with a mad, unreasoning love. She is
only a girl a frail, passionate, moody
girl, whose") heart is a lute for every
wind to piny upon; who is swayed by
lovo and honor like any reed; who in the
sleepless midnights looks renunciation in
the face, with dry eyes: who walks hand-in-hand
with n sorrow that might so
easily woar tho stars of joj-" and with
a convulsive sob breaking from her lips
the girl turned to enter tho house.
Itupsrt stopped her. "You nre off your
feed, my darling," ho said, in tho low,
musical tones ho knew so well bow to
uso when a woman's lovo was to bo won
or the unexpected advent of three aces
in a jack-pot announced. "You will he
better in tho fall, sweetheart the golden
tinted fall when the Salem association
gets out those beautiful mezzo-tinted
posters announcing its annual soiree of
livo stock."
"Do you really think so, Itupert?" tho
girl asks, putting her arms around him
with a wistful, how-do-yon-think-j-ou'd-feel-if-papa-was-to-heave-in-sight
look.
"Why, of course 1 do, niy angel," ho
replies bending over to kiss her onco for
tho cigars.
"And would you do anything in your
power to make mo happy?" and again
the yearning, anxious, somebody-hold-thc-dog
expression came into tho dusky
63'es from which the tears aro welling.
"My love," ho says, speaking slowly,
and with an earnestness that shows how
grave tho subject is to him, "you know
that lor your dear sake 1 would bravo
any danger, mako any sacrifice that man
can make. You know that j-our happi
ness is mine, that to win a smile from
your sweot face sheol could furnish no
torture I would not endure; yon know
that in a pinch I would oven "
"bnongul" said Desdemona, a glad
smile fluttering on her -lips; "I will test
your love.'
'Do so, was Kupert's rem v. "Let me
prove mj love as tho crusaders of old did.
by some noble, manly action. I am
ready for the test, no matter how terriblo
it may be;' nud his pure young face
lighted up with a rapturous John-Sher
man-on-the-Occident-balcony smile.
JJCdemona kissed uim tenderly. 'r
knew you would not fail mo, my own truo
love," she murmured. You may bring
them to tho houso this evening.'
"Bring what?" asked Rupert. I do
not understand you."
"You will catch on before the summer
is over," came tho reply, in clear, incisivo
tones. "I mean two boxes of raspber
ries." and tho beautiful girl .stepped into
the house.
With a dull pain at his heart Rupert
went away. "I'm o'er young to marry,"
he said sof tly to himself, "and too lux
uriantly fly to begin lurying raspberries
in June.'' Fr-OJH "Tuffy," by Clms.

"Good morning, sir," said a woman,
whose faco looked like a boiled salmon,
with a pickax nose, and a voico that
sounded liko a far away echo from the
housetops as she addressed a young man
who tiembled as he viewed her stern vis
age. "What I want to see yon for, is to
ask if yen aro an Odd Fellow that is if
you belong up yonder?' and sho nodded
her head toward a building from vhich
he had just emerged.
He meekly replied. "I do madam."
"Well," said she, "my man says he is
one of you, and I want yon to tell niG if
he is an inside watchman, and has been
appointed for COO nights to watch tho
jewels? And do you have six meetings n
week. And does he have to crawl through
some of them in the daytime, and lose a
day's work trying to be a noddle grand,
or a past grand burglar, or some such
name as be tells me of ?"
The yonng man said that sho must
have been misinformed, that there was
something wrong, but sho interupted him
with. "There, you neednt try to play
smart. I understand all about this grip
business, and silent secrecy and mum
passwords, you can't fcol mo! Y'ou
wouldn't tell me for a farm in Seekonk,
would you? I don't suppose you would
tell mo" when raj' husband comes homo
with a hairpin in his toot and a lody's
collar on, instead of his own, whether he
has been taking a llebekah decree or
been at a surprise partyr Oh, no, you're
innocent, you nre.
Tho young Odd Fellow ventured to re
mark that he did not really understand
tho drift of tho inquiry.
"Oh, no; I sco its no use; you're all in
for each other, and you'd say the broken
earring I found in his pocket belonged to
you, wouldn't you? And if I should ask
yon who Araminta is that I caught him
talking to himself about, you'd say it was
the goat you pretended to ride; and if I
should ask you about this mutterinc I
hear of 'I pass' 'order it up' set 'm up
and give mo another hot one,' and all
that sort of thing, I supposo you'd say it
was all connected with yourhifalntin de
grees and necessary to tho order."
Tho young man meekly replied, as ho
tried to move away, that ho was in a hur
ry; that perhaps Brother Backup would
give all tho necessary information; that
ho could not really understand but sho
caught him up beforo ho could finish tho
sentence, "No, you don't understand
Oh, no! You wouldn't tell me for a pan
of doughnuts what kind of laws you
make, that says a woman shan't bo a
daughter of Becky, merely because sho's
got a wart on her nose. That's what ho
tells me, and then ho says I should havo
a medical examination, and that tho last
woman in has to wash tho dishes, when
they have thoso stuffing jubilees. Oh,
yes, it's all very nice to leave your poor
wifo at home on account of a wartand
sore heel, but I am going to find out this
business. I am going to find out whether
ono man can hold nil the offices through
the year, and set up six nights in the
week and tell his wifo sho can't bo a
Itebeknh, and bo on insido sentiment, or
whatever you call 'em, just on account of
a httlo thing liko that. I won't trouble
you any longer, as probably you want to
pass and 'set 'era up somewhere, but I'll
watch that chap of mine, and it I find
there is too much goat it, I'll forget that
I am a woman and if I don't mako his
head look like a double-humped bunion,
and ha'll have to wear my wash tub over
it for tho next three months," and she
slid into tho nearest grocery and bought
a dozen pickies and a stove lifter. Ore
