CHATTER yI.-THRouGH TILE LANES


The air was clean and fresh, and filed
with the sweet earthly smell that follows
rain; but there was no moon, and in the
narrow lanes, Ofte vershadowed by trees,
1t was very dark, which was, perhaps, the
reason why Captain Beauregard kept his
impatient horse at the easiest of trots,
though, even where there was more light
the pace was not mended, and Valerie
either put this down to over-caution on her
account, or preferred not to ask questions
''for conscience sake
Truly, this was happiness, this drive in
the sweet June night. Valerie felt as if
she wele in dream, and maybe her COM
panion felt the same, for he did not offer
to break the silence between them, till
they were more than q mile from DON
nington; then, bending down a little, he
said, softly:
'Youwill promise me those three dances,
Miss Herbert, will you not?"
Eyes," she said, simply; ''that is not

That innocent answer brought a smile to
Max Beauregard's handsome mouth, a flash
into his dark hazel eyes.

CONTAGIOUS PLEUR0- PNEUMONIA.

The Committee Give Cattlemen Chance to
Talk on Sen. Planners Bill to Extirpate the
Disease.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16-The senate com
mittee on agriculture gave hearing this
morning ON Sen. Palmer's bill to extir-
pate the contagious pleuro- pneumonia,
foot and mouth disease, and rinderpest
among cattle. DR.. Azel Ames, of Chlca-
go, E. S. Wilson AID G. p. johnson, of
the Illinois board of live stock commits
sioners, congressman McShane, OF Ne
braska, and Delegate Carey, of Wyoming,
appeared in support of the bill. Dr..
Ames said the bill differed III but one
respect from the bill passed by
the senate last session aud which was
recommended for passage by the legis-
latures of eleven ststes and many boards
of trade. He said the government
bureau of animal industry had been in
operation three years and in the opinion
of those most interested had proved in
adequate for the emergency. The march
of the disease had been such that the
secretary of the treasury had interdicted
the importation of cattle from
Scotland from whence such dis
easeE come. In this country
east of the Alleghenies, a number of
centers of the disease existed, and west
of the Alleghenies, where there are now
centers of the disease, it is believed there
is serious danger of its breaking out
fresh. Fear was expressed that the dis
ease might reach the ranges where it
would be impossible to eradicate it. II
was estimated that pleuro-pneumoni
among the cattle had already caused the
loss of twenty or thirty million collars,
besides a loss of $15 to $40 on each head
of cattle exported to Great Britain.
