CHAPTER L-CoNrrNuEp

To be squire Hadlow of Hadlow
Hall was their patent OF nobility, and
they were prouder Of it than If they
received a dukedom. Pride of birth
was their stumbling block and rock OF
oifence--more 10 them than religion,
than fame, than happiness.
1t was cherished and nursed by them,
and worshippcd with fanatical idola-
try, and sometimes, like a scorpion
taken 10 their breasts, il turned and
stung them TO the hearts core!
Poor Jack Bingham had no right
whatever. even in lis widest dreams,

scendant Il ;hif proud family.
He had nothing but good, honest,
red blood In his veins, and that was
mere puddle according TO the squire's
way OF thinking. He had never made
the least objection 20 the great friend
ship that existed between his daughter
and the wears on-why should he?
He was Of no more consequence than
her mastiff Sambo. He amused her,
and he would rs soon have thought of
forbidding her 20 play with her
parakeet, or give sugar and dainties TO
her favorte pony, as not to see Jack
Bingham as often as IL pleased her.
And yet he might have well dreaded
the result of such companionship The

with an oval face, and the most beauti-
full black fringed blue eyes magma

But the squire wrapped himself in
his pride as in mantle. never dreamt
that the young man would dare TO
raise his eyes 10 his daughter.
Jack had dared, though. and loved
her with all the strength Of his great
tender heart.
He had thought of little else save
Dorothy during his four years alb
sence.
In every place he went TO he pur.
chased something that he thought
would please her.
What was he TO do now? Could he

and insisted upon Jack being constant

much for him to do, that she could not
get on at all without him. And Jack
went, and shut his eyes to what he
didn't want TO see, and was happy In
his FOOLS paradise.
One day she would have piece OF
music for him to copy, another pho
tograph TO color OF fan to be paint

pairing, or piece OF carving to be

On other occasions she would, II

as to whether her pet had bronchitis
or not; and III Judy winked an eye or
looked heavy and stupid, demand anx-
iously IL he didn't think she was going
to get distemper.
Then Bingham would sit for hours
with his arms high In the air, like n
dervish who had dedicated his hands
to Heaven, holding skeins of wool,
which his fair companion rolled into
great fleecy-looking, gay-colored balls,
OF trace point-lace patterns, or fill her
tatting- shuttle. or do anything she
chose to ask him, no matter how I'M
reasonable or how disagreeable.
And through 1t all Dorothy looked
so bright and winsome, and there was
such charm in her sweet dangerous
smile, that il was no wonder poor Jack
Cooked and loved, and didn't ride

In love.
Dolly was quite unconscious of the
mischief she was doing quite uncon-
scious of the hopeless passion she had
inspired I'm Bingham's breast. She had
been used to him all her life, and look
ed on him as her brother, and thought
he treated her as he did his sister. And
1t must be allowed that he was always
courteous and attentive TO Blanche,
and had only retired before the super
Tor claims Of an accepted lover.
And so matters stood one evening
when February was nearly half over.

Aud let those sea green eyes divine
Pour their love madness into mine.

New Years day was bitterly cold.
The snow fell, and the wind howled,
and the air was keen and frosty.
But none of the keen air or the cold
wind penetrated TO the great dining
room at Hadlow Hall.
There all was warmth and bright
ness. The pink lamps threw a rosy
glow on the table loaded with delica-
cies; on the massive plate, and gilt
tering glass. and many-hned nowers
and ferns; on charming faces, and cost
ly dresses. and flashing jewels.
Jack Bingham didn't see much
charm In the scene. though. He had
brought down TO dinner a stout, elderly
titled dame with an alarming appetite,
who thought much of the turtle, ana
the trunles, and the champagne, and
nothing nc all of her companion.
Her attention and devotion to the
good things gave Jack ample leisure
20 look around, but as Dolly sat on the
same side, and he couldn't see her
he didn't value his liberty much,
and found himself after awhile gazing

A Complicated Case.

The following are the facts In case
which come up for trial some time
since. A gentleman, who for conven-
fence we will call A. made a note
payable TO b., by whom IL was indoors
ed TO G. The latter wrote upon the
back OF the note: 'for value re-
ceived. hereby guarantee the pay
ment Of the within note" and Endorsed
10 To ID. The Endorsements were all
made before the note fell due, and at
the date Of its maturity the maker
was solvent. The note was never paid,
and g. heard nothing OF it until he
was sued by ID. IL appeared from the
evidence that at the time the suit was
brought A., the maker, was insolvent.
The court decided that n. was re-
leased from his obligations because
the note had not been presented for
payment at the proper time. The
single question for consideration was,
therefore. could G. escape by showing
that ID. had been negligent and that
A. and h., both Of whom were pri-
marily responsible, had been dis
charged by reason Of such negligence.
A divided court held, however, that
O. must pay the note. BY his con-
tract OF guaranty he became abso-
lutely liable TO pay in case the other
parties, prior In point Of time, failed
to do so. A guarantor is usually a
fayorite In the courts, and this case
was surprise TO many who thought
G. should have been released.

together till the beginning of the
third inning, when up to the end of
the game both, the play was exceed

first inning of Dallas very bad errors
were made by Isaacson, Mullaly and
Rogers. But Weaver did we'll in catch

In the second inning Hoffman sur

the part of O'Rourke got to first, stole

home among much cheering.
Dallas in their second added three
more tallies.
In the fifth Hanlon called four balls

spectators soon convinced him of his
error and Mullaly went to first ON
balls.
In San Antonio's eighth, Isaacson
added one more tally, making the
score, Dallas 6 to San Antonio 4,
which was not changed through the
rest OF the game.

His Name Was Legion.

CHICAGO, August 3.-United States
Detectives left this city for San Fran
cisco Sunday to arrest VIM. Rains,
alias Raymond, alias Colby, Baptist
minister, a spiritualist medium, a
gambler and train robber, for whom
they have been searching since 1877.
They expect to reach San Francisco
today, and to arrest him at once, at As
Sixth street, where he is now playing
the role of slate writing medium. The
officers allege that in 1872 he robbed a
mail car near Austin, Texas, binding
and gagging the clerk, and securing
about So 900. In 1875, under the name
of Rains, he held successful revival
meeting in Hearne, Texas. While it
was in progress the train was held at
the depot because of an accident. The
train men were attending the revival
services. Rains pleaded illness, and
was not present. The mail car was
robbed of $4,000. Rains was ar
rested, convicted, and sentenced
to four years Imprisonment for the
crime. In prison he developed all the
symptoms of consumption, and was
finally pardoned by President Hayes
in 1877, and disappeared completely
for time. Subsequently he appeared
as slate writing and materializing
medium in New York and Chicago.
Last week the detectives located him
in San Francisco.

The Freie PreSSe,

This journal, the would-be mouth
piece of the Germans of San Antonio,
opens its mud batteries upon the
LIGHT because the LIGHT has sup
planted it i'm the German patronage of
this city. The fact is, that the LIGHT
more correctly represents the German
opinion on anti-prohibition, protec-
ton, municipal reform, and national
politics, than does the Freie Presse,
which has turned traitor to republican
principles and has sold out TO the Cal
laghan crowd. Unable to hold it's
own among the Germans of this city
because of it's demen ted course, the
Freie Presse damns the LIGHT by
way of revenge, as it damns every
thing else that is republican. 1t is a
sheet without following. Denounced
upon the street, in the Casino i'm the
party conventions, by the German
press of the state and nation, it has as
few friends as it has subscribers and
cannot do any harm where it is
known. The tempest it raises in its
little tea pot hurts no one.
