Certainly, Mr.. Western, you mean a
'Peerage.'"
"I'n tell you what want" said Joe,
in his blunt, straightforward way.
There's Trip Redfern is going to marry
a Mr.. Algernon Beaufort, who says there
is duke in his family, and / want to
find out if 1t is So"
"Pshawr' laughed the rector, "it is
sure to be right. Beaufort-duke. There
is Duke of Beaufort, but the family
name is not Beaufort, but Fitzroy Somer-
set. Here is the 'Peerage, look for your
self"
Joe looked at the book, turned the
pages, and was more puzzled than before
"Then those of the dukes family are
not Beauforts at all?''
Certainly not; Fitzroy Somerset. Did
Mr.. Beaufort claim relationship to the
Duke of Beauforti''
Joe rubbed his head.
THAT can't say. All know Is, he
told Mrs Redfern that there was duke
in the family"
HE did not say what dukei"

Joe saw his only chance of finding out
about Trips intended husband disappear

A Crititism OF u. L. See.
To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journals:
In last Fridays Journal u. L. See takes ex-
ceptions to an appeal Of the st. Louis Assembly,
K. of L. It is true that individual assemblies
will sometimes write foolish appeals, ths same as
individual members of the Methodist Church
will sometimes write foolish books. The great
body of Knights of Labor is no moro respon-
sible for that appeal than the great body of the
Methodist Church is responsible for s'The Mode
Of Immortality
But want to call U. L. Sees attention to a
matter that has probably escaped his notice, and
which causes his friends no little anxiety He
has written great deal and for a long time, and
has afforded his readers considerable amcse-
ment. But he is now getting old, and his acri-
monious style has so impregnated his soul that
it will reoui-e the greatest effors of his life to
r'd himself of it, If he should succeed at ALL
When an old soak is compelled to forego his
morning dram he then realizes the hold whisky

something sweet about something or somebody
he could see then how firmly he is tied in the
bonds of bitterness. II he will notice, he will
see that we use greatdeal more saccharine than
acid in our physical food. and those who dish
out mental pabulum should give us the sweet
u. L. See take a little of the saccharine
of philanthropy into his soul and repeat
the dose often, and within year there
will be such a transformation that he
won't know himself. u. l.. See will soon be
with the angels-good or bad-and In his pres
ent spirit he will not be in harmony with the
surroundings in the city his friends hope he will
finally reach. In his present unregenerate state
he would not more than be in sight of the New
Jerusalem till he would begin to critcise the
architecture, the style of some of the inhabit-
ants or something else. A change is necessary.
When the late telegraph strike was in progress
writer compared the wages of the operators
with those of farm hands, and u. L. See uses
the same illustration. Workingmen in cities
cannot live as cheapfy as farm hands do, and he
ought to know it. Suppose he had been COM
pensa1ed with farmland wages when engaged
in his profession, to gain which he spent years
of study.

Mrs. Peixada.n

Cassen g Co., New York, have published
new novel by Sidney Luska with the above ii
tle AS in this young writer's first novel, which
with one or two exceptions, are of the Jewish
faith. AS in that story, also, music plays
leading part in the development of important
events. The hero and heroine hold impassioned
converse over the merits of different schools"
of music, and the reader is treated to a critical
dissertation on Wagner and the Wagnerites,
which will bore him or not, according to the in
terest he may feel in the subject When the
heroine played Beethoven sonata to her lover,
that impressible young gentleman felt that the
subtlest and most sacred mysteries of the soul
were being explained to him. In the language
of the listener. deep melancholy, breathless
terror. keen, quivering anguish, blank despair
flashes of shortlived joy, instants of hope,
speedily engulfed in an eternity of despond;
tremulous desire, the delirium of enjoyment, the
bitter awakening to a sense of safety and self
deception; intervals of quiet reflection, broken
in upon by the turbulent cries of hundred
malicious spirits; weird glimpses into world of
phantom shapes, exaltation into the seventh
heaven of delight, descent into the bottomless
pit of darkness; these were a few of the
strange and vague, but none the less intense,
emotional experiences" through which the player
led him. This exuberant flow of Ian
guage is a marked popularity of the hero;
he is eloquent at all times, and in declaring his
love to the object of his hearts affection, an
occasion on which ordinary men are more or less
embarrassed, he delivers something very much
like q stump speech. This form of attack is GER
tainly very effective. the young woman ad-
dressed giving up her idea Of resistance and
succumbing to the food of talk without further
opposition.
The dramatic sense is strongly developed in
this author, but \ lack of true artistic feeling
makes his work far from agreeable to critical
taste. The plot Of the story is ingenious, and
the tragic situations well handled, but the reader
finds difficulty in letting his sympathies go in
they should. woman who is so lacking in the
sense of honor and what is due to herself and
her intended husband as to refrain from telling
him not only that she had been previously mar
ried but that she had been tried for her hus-
bands murder, is not the being to win the regard
OF the multitude. As this episode in her ca:eer
| in no wise alters her new husbands love- how
ever, and the shadow upon her reputation seems
unlikely to affect her standing in the circle in
which they move, this point is pchaps not one
that calls for adverse criticism. The story has
many strong features that it is matter of
regret that as whole IL does not leave a more
favorable impression. The authors youth, how
ever, gives hope for Improvement in future work.

Gardner. Ruffun & Co.

About a week ago, the PRESS men
toned the difficulties into which this firm,
more generally known as the Bartlett
Land & Lumber Company, had fallen
through the alleged irregularities of Mr.. E.
c. Gardner, the senior partner who had
spent $1,000 of his own, and $4,000 of the
firms money. AT meeting Of the creditors
of the arm, held in this city Monday, among
whom were Joseph E. Blabon, Charles Nc
Laughlln, W. Il. King, ID. W. True, Eben
Corey, John @. Twitchell, Cyrus Thompson,
J. FL. True, Dexter ". Kensell, j. L. Lewis,
Harry P. King, Fl. N. Jose, Charles w. Al
len and Frederick Durham, Hon. Charles
Mclaughlin was made chairman and j. K.
Emery, bookkeeper for D. W. True, secreta-
ry of the meeting.
Mr.. Buffum read statement, showing that
the company's assets are $39, 84647, liabili-
ties SAG, 647.92; excess of liabilities over as
SETS $6,8 As. He said the business had
been profitable, the years business in April
last showing profit of $4,000. Last year the
have been his, but he only used $500. Gard
ner speculated with the company's paper,
while he debited himself with only $500 for
the year. The money obtained on discount
ing the firm paper Gardner pocketed.
Mr.. Fl. N. Jose said Gardner had falsified
dorse the firm paper for $10,0O0-but owing
to Gardeners Misrepresentation had ex-
ceeded that amount. He had no security ex-
cept mortgage placed by Mr. Hale, of $780,
600 on the firm property at Upper Bartlett.
Mr.. F. B. Osgood explained that the new
New Hampshire insolvent law puts all cred
itors on an equal footing, therefore no mort
gage made three months prior to an assign
ment would hold as against other creditors.
Mr.. Jose was prepared, he said, to share his
loss with the other creditors Mr.. Buffum
was not prepared to make any offer of settle
ment.
J. F. Chenery, j. E. Blabon and Reuben
Wescott were appointed a committee to in
vestigate the books; were empowered to en-
ploy an expert lumberman and accountant
to get at the assets; and were ordered to re-
cord Mr.. Jose's mortgage of $4,000. Mr..
Jose volunteered to give the creditors pa
per, so that even if the mortgage held the
property could be divided pro rata.
