One of the important matters before the

many of the figures reported are higher

The St Louis club has now nearly 500

ST. LOUIS CLUB.

Nearly all American clubs are OF recent
growth those in the west necessarily 50. The
St. Louis club was only started in 1873. Like
most clubs III the beginning, the organiza-
ton bought private mansion for their head
quarters Tho club was small then, and an
ordinary residence accommodated it. There
is enough Of the old French element left in
St Louis to insure good cookery, and the new
club soon became famous for its cuisine and
wines.
The club is not merely for social purposes.
In times of need it steps in and silently in
fiuences municipal politics and other matters
pertaining to the city's welfare. In this case
thero are wheels within wheels. The Yelled
Prophets are a secret organization of citizens
who hang together as a power behind the
throne in city politics. Within the general
circle of the ST Louis club IS select band
known as the Commercial club This IS con-
nected in some mysterious way, 50 it is said,
with the Yelled Prophets, whether by the
psychic telegraph of the occultists or not does
not appear But whenever an important
measure Is to be carried III the city council
for public improvements, or health, or any
thing like that, the bill IS apt to be passed and

the Yelled Prophets and the Commercial club,
all is silence agaiu-till next time.

On the second floor also is the dining room
proper Of the club. This is the most attrac-
tive AMI splendid room in the building. In
this fact one traces the old French life in st.
Louis. The French like their dinner sum-
mons to call them TO scene Of light, beauty
and music.
The club house is furnished with large open
freplaces which are capable Of taking in real

And SO the third Miss Temple was engaged.
Mamma made no objection. She did, indeed,
when business came to be talked, remark
to Mr.. Brent that her daughters fortune
would not be large, and that she hoped he
would be able to provide handsomely for his
son. At this he waved his hand in conf
dent way, nodded and said: THAT shall be
all right" He did not at that time enter
into any particulars, but Mrs. Temple, from
what she knew of him, was quite satisfied
with this assurance and the matter dropped
It was soon known to the whole town that
Sophia Temple was engaged to Percival

our disappointment at the mysterious disap-
pearance of the rector's Irritation with the
widow. Indeed, some of us started the
hypothesis that what we superficial investi-
gators had mistaken for a Irritation was in
reality nothing more than the settling Of the
preliminaries Of the present affair. We said

intimacy between them.

CHAPTER III.

It was dark as father and son drove home,
and Percival was greatly startled when,
almost as soon as the horses began to move,
the rector threw himself upon him, and, sob
bing like child, called out:
u am ruined man, Percy-a ruined man.
The explanation which followed this an
nouncement was in all its main features new
to Percival, who had never known any par.
ticulars Of his fathers affairs. The facts,
which may be briefly told, were these: Brent
senior was the son Of father who had mar.
ried twice, and the rector had now half.
brother nearly twenty years older than him.

life interest in it, but at hts death the whole
passed absolutely to her only child. Rector
Brent's father had ever been q careless and
imprudent man, who, having married for.
tunately, lived ON his wifes money. After
her death he married again, a. has been said,
and his second wife died in the same month
as himself; but his reckless and improvident
character was plainly seen by the state in
which his affairs were left He might easily
have saved, and saved handsomely, for the
education and maintenance Of his second son,
