caught on. Then everybody got poles
and clubs, and everybody pOked and

Norwood Templeton, and a dull red
stream dimmed their bright blossoms.
In the afternoon Richard came in,
and went straight to his room, locking
himself in. He had scarcely arrived,
when two men entered and inquired for
him.
1 called him down-Mrs. Payne was
out-and, when he refused to give them
private hearing, one of the men ad-
yanced, and, charging him with the
murder of Norwood rempleton ar
rested him. He seemed too bewildered
by some other event To take any notice
of this: and, when he went away with
the one in authority to pack up a few
things, the other explained To me that
Norwood had been found dead, shot in
the chest, with discharged pistol i'll
his hand.
The man had evidently something
else TO tell. L pressed him. Reluctantly
he said
well, miss, yOn must know it sooner
or later but she who it's all about Is
dead too. She was found dead in the
hall by the servants when they came
down"
The next moment Richard, who had
Just returned, had hurled him violently
back against the wall.
WHAT" he yelled furiously. "What
did you say. She dead Queenle?
Oh " and he fell down senseless.
Mrs. Payne came back while We were
trying to restore him. and then there
was another scene.
Meanwhile all sorts of fancies and
persons had been floating in my dizzy
head-my dream, the figure last night
in the wood, the Spaniard who wanted
Norwood to fight duel.
Need | dwell longer on these fearful
scenes? L have been plain enough. 1t
only remains 10 tell that before night
Richard was at liberty and the Spaniard
in custody; that the latter confessed his
crime, and considered that he had acted
fairly towards his enemy i'll allowing
him a shot at him. He suffered the
penalty OF the law.
The cause of poor Queenie'S death
was mystery. The doctors disagreed
about it. For myself | cannot say
whether il was the heart-diSeaSe in-
herlted from her mother, aggravated by
the excitement of that fatal night and
morning, or whether deeper. stranger
must be sought for the tlIght of her
pure spirit from its fair tenement.
Richard mourned as strong men
moarn. But he could not bear to stay
where he would Sc daily the objects
which would remind him Of his loss.
And he At last agreed to go to Canada.
His mother and l accompanied him;
and here, as In old England, good
fortune waited on his patient labor.
That is all; and | am glad it is told,
RICHARDS POSTSCRIPT.
My darling Lucy has forgotten to tell
how one day found out her secret,
how l learned what she had SO nobly
borne for my sake, and how proud, but
how ashamed | was at the know ledge.

The winter had come and gone.
Spring began to make Redthorpe Wool
gay again. But lt brought no bright
ness TO us at the Wood Farm. For
soIAe weeks 1 had seen sad look steal
over Richards face as he sat with US
now and then in the evenings. l tried
to comfort him silently and he knew
it, and thanked me silently too with
grateful eyes. But he would not speak.

things had changed with her too: At
one time that shadowy thoughtful gaze
would deepen and deepen, until she
was wrapt in some pleasant dream
which sent a soft smile rippling round
her mouth. At another time it was
turned to me with such a wOeful. fear
in it that my heart bled for her. But
she would not speak either.

into the belt of jungle without being
seen from the thicket. Once in, we
worked rapidly down to the point oppo-
site the thicket. At the edge there was
nothing but low bushes about seven or
eight feet high, no tree half large enough
for us to have climbed into to shoot
from.
'.It was foolish thing to do, sup
pose, but I determined TO stand right
there, and for once get a good, fair
shot. The trackers thought it very
risky, but they promised to stand by me
whatever happened. So took my po-
sition in the edge of the bushes, posted
the crackers close behind me, gave the
signal, and the beat began.
''Fighting tigers on foot is anxious
business, and l had hard work to keep
my hands steady while we watched.
But we had not long to wait. Five
minutes after the beat began, we saw
the tigers face peering cautiously out
of the bushes at the end of the thicket
opposite us. He saw the men in the
trees, and felt that he could safely pass
between them. He walked out of cover,
and skulking low amongst the stunted
bushes, at swift trot made straight for
where we were standing. He got over
the ground very rapidly, glancing sus-
piciously right and left, mouth a trifle
open to breathe freely. At last we were
face to face! covered him from the
moment he left the thicket, and when
he was within forty yards of US, aimed
at his chest to make sure, and fired.
Down he went in an instant, roaring
and growing horribly, biting and claw
ing in every direction. Quick as pos
sible gave him the second barrel, and
tried to reload. | could scarcely man

only youngster then, you know" said
Theobald, with an apologize smile.
'tWell, another shot ended the brute,
and then you should have seen the ex-
element and joy, as the whole gang
came running up, and gathered around.
l never saw men SO nearly tickled to
death as those fellows were. They
crowded around that dead tiger, and
abused him frightfully in the most alb
surd ways, putting dirt in his mouth,
beating him with their sticks, and call
ing him by all the bad names they could
think of.
"After they had relieved their feel
ings in such ways, they made litter Of
poles, put the carcass upon it, and
started for Doraypore. 1t was tri-
umphal march. The people flocked out
of the villages we passed to see the dead
man-eater, and to praise the sahib for
his grand skill, and above all to make
sure the tiger they had so long lived in
perpetual fear of, was really dead.
They said that was their father, their
mother, lord of the earth, and don't
know what all else.
Il cut off the head of the tiger, and
stuffed it to keep as a trophy; It is still
at my brothers bungalow in Madras.

AIaska's Wealth Of Ice.

Governor Kinkead, in a letter to the
SilOer State, says: Yesterday we "did"
Glacier Bay, and of all the magnificent
sights that the eye of man ever looked
upon l think it the chief. The sur
roundings are grand beyond any de-
scription, and must be seen to be even
approximately appreciated. Our good
ship steered within 100 yards of the
foot of Muir Glacier, the front about
three miles in extent and spreading
back in fan-shape for miles. If you
could fill the Humboldt Valley from
bluff to bluff for a distance of about
twenty miles with ice 500 to 1000 feet
leep, you might form some idea of this
rreat work of nature. The foot of the
