and striking appearance of the wander
chief could not but impress her. :.
The second day after the departure Of
the gypsies from Sanford Hill, as the
old army officers place was called, there
was an arrival In the person Of the gov
erneSs engaged to finish off" Lulu's
education.
At the first glance Mt Viola Hale Lulu
did not like her; but in few moments
after she changed her mind and seemed
almost fascinated by the handsome gov
erness,. for she was strangely, weirdly
beautiful, with great black eyes in
which slept words Of passion, ripe red
lips, teeth like milk and without blem-
ish, and hair that touched the floor when
she was standing blue black and
with inclination 10 curl.
Her complexion was dark. almost
bronze In hue, but there was rich blood
In the cheeks. and her form was the
very perfection Of grace and beauty.
Her age was hard 10 tell: at times she
seemed like girl, and then again one
might not be far wrong II he said she
was nearly 30.
From her entree into the mansion she
ruled, and yet no one seemed to know
that she held the feiBs; but Col. Sanford
soon became her slave. Lulu seemed
wholly under her influence. and no one
seemed conscious that she made her
power felt. She was an accomplished
musician, and sang with depth VI feel
Ing that would captfvate any listener.
When at length Capt, Fred De Laney
came again TO Sanford Hill on a visit
and met Viola Hale, he seemed, 10 Lulu's
surprise, not to take fancy 10 her.
That woman has q history. Lulu, and
a dark one, mark my word for it, he
said.
"5he IL very beautiful, Fred, and ae-
eomplished, sweet~tempered, and, and"
"ABd what, Lulu
"And don't like to have you find fault
Then will not. She ia an angel
only she has history" and the persist
ent man could not be changed in his
opinion.
The next day Fred proposed a horse
back ride, and when the horses were
brought round, Viola Hale appeared in q
habit that set of her W0adf0us beauty
strangely.
Refusing the offer Of Fred to aid her.
she laid her hand on the p6gamsl and
leaped lightly into the saddle from the
ground,
she's been in circus, I'll wager
said Fred, in low tone a. he lifted Lt,-
Ia to her saddle. and he was more con-
WINGED Of this when be saw the perfect
manner in which the g6Vsfnsss managed
the Wild horse she rode,
Whether Viola Hale realized that the
young captain did not exactly like her.
IL was hard TO tell; but she suddenly be-
gan To turn her battery o. fascination
upon him in a manner that threatened
10 change his mind regarding her, But
fortunately his f9rI01gh MAS soon ended,
and be departed f0f his command On the
frontier, happy man, because LUlu
Sanford had promised 10 be his wife
when she Was q year and 2 half older,
and Col, Sanford approved the match
