Tor hVe years. Annabel WAS young
agt.n.
Let us pass over five years Of quiet
domestic happincss--for. although her
feelings toward her husband were very
different from those called forth by her
first love, still she was attached to the
worthy man.
Her black dress and ugly cap, no less
than her slow gait and saddened air,
showed her to be a widow. Lonely and
dosolate since her bereavement, she has
again taken up her residence with her
father, and mhabits the same little room
she formerly did.
A few months more, and her fathers
death increased her seclusion. She has
no relation left on earth, and earnestly
and bitterly does she pray that she may
die, and leave this world of sorrows.
She receives no visitors, and never ap-
pears abroad-onIy now and then, late
IN the afternoon, when the weather is
fine, her tall, closely-veiled figure may
be seen walking. slowly through the
shady walks about the castle, and the
village children coming home from
school peep at her through the hedge
and whisper {: "It is only the old lady
taking her walk. v
We said visitors were never admitted
there, and they were not. So much the
greater then was the surprise of all the
servants when, one day, ine-looking,
middlc-aged man was seen in the large
parlor in converse with their mistress !;
this was repeated SO often that at last it
became quite customary thing. She
took no more solitary walks; her black
veil was laid aside; her close cap again
gave way to her glossy hair-glossy

youth was coming back--for was not

FIRED BY SPARKS.

Bridges Burned on the Line of the Atlantic
Il Pacific Railroad from the Locomotives.
kilograms were received at the At
lantic & Pacific general office last even
ing stating that two small bridges on
the line of the road were burned, or
partially so, yesterday afternoon. One
of the bridges was No. 257 near Def
ance, and the other, No. Ala, three
miles from Dennson and ten miles east
of Canon Diablo. They were both set
on fire by sparks from passing train.
Efficient measures for the repairs of
the bridges were at once taken by the
officials of the company. The bridge
near Dennison was temporarily "crib-
bed" and the passenger train which ar
rives i'll Albuquerque this afternoon.
crossed it safely at 6 o'clock last even
ing.
The bridge at Defiance was fired by
No. z freight train at IL A. NJ. yester-
day, the fire not being discovered for
some hours afterward.
A construction train with bridge
timber and force of men left Cool
dge for Defiance in the afternoon and
it is supposed that few hours work
would be sufficient to repair the bridge.
The timber in the wooden bridges is
very dry at present, and the high winds
of the last few days have greatly in
creased the danger from fire.

Star Route Investigation.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14.-The at
torney general was asked to-day what
had been done in the star route brib-
cry cases, and what was being done.
He answered very promptly that much
had been done in probing the matter to
the bottom A great deal of testimo-
ny has been taken, and a great deal
more yet had to be taken; /;
that it would be impolitic
now. and irregular to dis
close any Of the evidence. as it would
put those accused and guilty men on
their guard, but, this much he would
say: that within a few days one or
more of those persons, in the depart
ment of justice, who have been used
as spies by the defendants, and who
appear to be deeply complicated in the
attempt to corrupt the jurors in be-
half of the defendants, would be ar
rested. That he had ordered this upon
evidence now before him. The
defendants, somehow or other, hav-
ing obtained knowledge of the
attorney-generaPs intention, and know
ing also that he had possession of in
disputable proof of the guilt of these
instruments of theirs, they would, with
in day or two, abandon the silence
disclosing the facts that were already
within their knowledge, for which they
had taken credit as public informers
because they were part of that story
not told by them. The sudden arrest
of their instruments would be fatal
move to them.

on the Union and Central Pacific roads,
more particularly against so-called boy
cotting /" contracts, which are intend.
ed to control all merchants shipping
exclusively by railroad and so
drive competing ship lines out
of business. The Pacific mail
is subsidized by the raih DAD
company to prevent its completion, in
order to drive vessels out of business.
The roads charge much higher rates to
merchants, who send heavy freights bv
sea, than they do to merchants who
send only by rail. Special contracts for
1881 went beyond those of 1889, .,nd
prohibited beneficiaries of them, even
from selling to those who did not enter
the special contracts.
Mr.. Armstrong thinks the complaints
of local points on the Union and Cen
trail Pacific roads, that they are being
Disseminated against, are of piece
with the complaints of all local points,
because they do not get so good rates
as terminal points, and Is inclined
to think the Objectionable special con-
tract system unavoidable and
past competition on these points
He expresses himself with leserve and
seems impressed with the magnitude
of the questions involved in freight
rates and determinations, and especial
ly with the vulnerable points and all
schemes of the government at regu-
lation thereof. Whether he will make
any recommendation in his annual re-
port is doubtful, but he has made some
effort at collecting information on this
subject, and it is likely will represent
facts in his report and give the public
a chance TO draw their own inference.

Another Case of check Raising.

CHICAGO, Oct. IA New York
special says: Another successful case
of check raising has been made pub
lie by which the American Exchange
National bank is said to be out $500,
on draft raised from SIS. The bank
has brought suit against the German
National bank, of Denver, to recover
the amount. Clerk, cashier, of the
American Exchange bank, alleges that
onSAugust z, the st. Joseph National
bank, of st. Joseph, Missouri, by its
president, made bill of exchange,
dated that day, and directed to the
American Exchange bank, to pay to the
order of T. Warner $15. That the bank
of st. Joseph delivered the bill of ex-
change to Warner or some other per-
son, and that the bill of exchange was
raised from SIS to $500. After being
raised, the check was delivered by per-
sons unknown to the German national
bank of Denver. The latter there
after transmitted it to New York, and
directed the American Exchange ma
tional bank to pay $500 to the order
of the Metropolitan national bank of
New York. The German national
bank of Denver has refused to pay
back the amount.

before the campaign was over,
that he would go on the stump,

described in detail repairs made upon

pervision at the Moore Island navy
yard, and stated that the work was
first-class in every particular. He
thought the Jeannette was as strJ1g
as it was possible to be, ana that devia-
tions from the recommendations first
made were an improvement and add
ed to her strength. He believed he
knew who was responsible for these
deviations, but did not care to make
positive statement The question was
not pressed though the impression was
given that the deviations were ut the
instance of Captain DeLOng. Witness
thought that the model of the jean
nette was not suited to Arctic cruis-

Vanderbilt Taken to Task.

CHICAGO, Oct. IA. The Inter-Ocean
says: Vanderbilt denies that he said
anything disagreeable about the peo-
pie, politicians and rival railroads, in
an interview which was had with him
in Chicago, and feels very much out
ragged because words are attributed to
him that have given offense to those at
whom they were directed, and the pub
lie at large. Mr.. Vanderbilt is rather
late with his denial of this interview
which was published twenty-four
hours before he left Chicago. The news
paper offices were open all that
time and are located within easy walk
ing distance of the hotel, at which he
was stopping. 1t is known he read it.
and it was alluded to by people who
conversed with him,
The fact that he neglected denying
its accuracy, until his utterances had
been widely commented upon and
condemned, leaves little doubt as tC
whether his denial is as truthful as the
interview.
