said, shall l show you the money!"

visitant, as though this were some con

waiting, sprang instantly upon his feet.

they Frightened and softened with a tender
triumph, and even as they frightened,
faded and dislimned. But Markheim did
not pause to watch or understand the
Transformation. He opened the door and
went down stairs very slowly, thinking to
himself. His past went soberly before
him; he beheld it as it was, ugly and
strenuous like a dream, random rs chance
medley-a scene of defeat. Life, as he
thus reviewed it, tempted him no longer;
but on the farther side he perceived a
quiet haven for his bark. He paused in
the passage and looked into the shop,
where thecandle still burned by the dead
body. IL was strangely silent. Thoughts
of the dealer swarmed into his mind as he
stood gazing. And then the bell once
more broke out into impatient clamor.
He confronted the maid upon the thresh-
old with something like a smile.

You nave no idea what it costs to run a
hotel like this. There Is a big help list.
rent, supplies for table, gas bill, heat and
many minor things besides the general

will foot up nearly 81 200 a day. OF course
in summer there is no heating up of the
house by steam, and that knocks a big
item off, but, taking all the year round,
our expenses will average fully $500 per

THE hitch in the negotiations for a
eession Of hosulities in ST Louis seems to
be caused by the refusal Of the heads OF
departments Of the Missouri Pacific Rail
road company TO re employ all the men
who went out on a strike. During the in.
term a large number OF men have been
set to work and the company will only re-
employ a. many men as are needed in the
several departments. OF course, they
will not discharge those who were en-
ployed while the old men refused to work
This will leave a large number of the old
employees out in the cold. But who is to
blame for that2 Powderly and his aid.
