CHAPTER XVIII.

On the day arranged, early on the
morning after the dinner ~ Littel Al
rc>!ord Park. John Gordon went up to
London. he has been much moved by
the iutimation made to him BY Mr..
White taft that some letter should be
written "a him nj his London address.
lie had made his appeal To Mr.. Whit
tlcstaf. and had received no answer
whatever. And he had. after Il fashion.
made his appeal also to the girl. He
felt sure that h plea must reach her.
His very presence then in the house had
been an appeal 10 her. He knew that
she ~ tar believed I'm him as 10 be con
SciouS that she cCUldat once become his
wiic-if she We're wiling TO throw over
his rival. He knew also that she loved
him-or had certainly loved him. He
did not know the nature of her regard:
nor was it possible that he should ever
know that, unless she were his wife.
She had given Il promise 10 that other
man. and-it Wa thus Re read her
chara ter-She could be true to her
promise without any graf heart-brcak
At any rate. she intended to be true to
ii. He did not for 4 moment suspect
that Mr.. Whit;lcStatf was false. Mary
had declared that she would not with
draw her word-thai only from her own
mouth was to lie taken hcr intention of
! such withdrawal. and that such inten-
ton she certainly would never utter.
OF her character he understood much
but not quite all. He was not aware OF
the depth of her feeling.
But Nh. Whittlestaf he did not under.
stand at all. OF all those vac;llatiar
SoftneSSes he knew noth;ng-or of those
moments spent with the poet. in which
he was wont 10 fight against the poets
pretenceS. and of those other moments
spent with Mrs. Baggett, il which he
would listen TO. and always finally re.
iect, those invitations TO manly strength
which she would always pour into his
ears. That Mr.. Whittlesiaff should
spend hour after hour. and now day
after day. in teaching himself 20 regard
nothing but what might hes: suit the
girls happ;neSS-of that he WAS alto
Tether in the dark. To his thinking.
Mr.. WhittlcSiaff was a hard man. who,
having gained his object. intended ~
hold fas: by what he hal gained. He.
John Gordon. knew, or thought that he
knew. that Mary. as his wife. would
lead 4 happier lie than with Mr.. Whit
:~lestalf. But things had turned out un-
fortunately and there was nothing for
him but to return 10 the dialnond-tields.
Therefore he had gone back 10 Lon
don with the purpose of preparing for
mis- journey. A man does not start for
South Africa tomorrow, o., if not to-
morrow. then the next day. He was
aware that there must be some delay;
but any place would be better in which
to stay than the neighborhood of Crok-
er's Hall. There were things which
must be done. and people with whom
he must do it; but of all that he need
say nothing down at Alresford. There
fore, when he got back 10 London. he
eesnt TO make all his arrangements

in now al his elbow, and he was hold
ing her by the arm. II was 10 him al
most aS though she were already his
wife, and the feeling 10 him was very
pleasant. Only II she were his wife,
or II IL were positively decided among
them that she would become SO, lie
would certainly tell her the reason iOY
which he Nigh. undertake any Jour
ney. Indeed, there WAS no reason on
nected with any business Of his which
might not be told, other than tina,

him to London. He only answered her
now by pressing her hand and smiling
into her face. ''WIli IL he for i

for the first place. He is one of the
cleanest and most honest men on the
bench, but the opposition to him will
be the indefinite objection that he is
hardly fitted for the position. His
plainness and LONELINESS and the fact
that he has never been one of ''the
boys" will he made use of by friends
of Judges Powers and Veazey. If
Judge Royce is defeated and Judge
Ross is not to be elected chief judge,
the bars having been let down, there
will be great fight by the friends of
Powers and Veazey, both of whom are
in the prime of life, both ambitions,
both very popular and both qualified
for the position. The probable fight
over the chief justiceship will be the
great event of the session. The defeat
of Royce would be victory over the
Smith ring, but a squabble among the
assistant judges for the position is not
very creditable or pleasant to cOntem-
plate. - Burlington Correspondent

other side issue dragged into the con-

convention Endorsed the action of Miss
Willard, the national president, and
the national executive committee in 60
ing before committees of the different

4 Newspaper or am Organ
which

1t has been IA hobby of the CdiedOni-
an that the coming citizen will prefer Il
newspaper to an organ. therefore it
halls with joyful appreciation such ev-
idence of that good time coming as is
given in the following statement of
fact: We know Il man in Caledonia
county, what his name and where his
residence we shall not divulge without
his pcrmission,-a man of education
and culture an ardent republican and
AN earnest Blaine man; lifelong
reader of the Boston Journal, who has,
since this presidential campaign be
gun, stopped his journal and sub
scribed for the Boston Herald. His
reason for this change III his own
words is this "Whilc | shall vote for
Mr.. Blaine and expect that he will be
elected, | cannot endorse the course of
ther truthful or honest. And while |
do not believe in the candidate of the
Herald, ! can get in that paper the
facts on both sides and then | can
Judge for myself
When party men of the character of
the above are discriminating enough to
see the effect of Il thick and thin parti-
san paper and honest and frank enough
to admit it, we are not without hope of
the ultimate triumuh of indpnpndpnt
thought and action in this country.
