Near to my house there lived bachelor,
Reputed rich, and servants three he had:
A valet trim to shave his latherd jaw.
A buxom maid and mischievous lad.

with an involuntary accent of surprise.

The two gentlemen now entered
horse car, and the conversation ceased.
Martin lapsed into gloomy revery; but
the judges spirits seemed, for some rea-
son, to have visibly improved. He had
received a severe shock at the moment
when he entered the room and found
Pauline and Martin together. The lat
ters announcement of his intended de-
parture brought an immense relief. He
had already begun to like the young
English1nan. but he now began to regard
him with sincere affection.
They left the car at Bleecker street and
proceeded to police headquarters. There
was still quarter of an hour before the
formality of getting bail could be ar
ranged. They were admitted to the in
spectors room, and at the judges request
he courteously gave permission to them
to have an interview with the prisoner.
"How is he standing it, Inspector
asked Martin.
HE doesn't find it amusing, suppose;
but he is as comfortable as could be ex-
pected," replied the impenetrable officer.
''There will be no difficulty in getting
bail, will there?"
''I presume there will be nothing un-
usual. But the case is not a simple one.
There are some awkward features to it.
"How is that?'' demanded the judge.
"Well, as regards motive for one
thing"
"It would need strong motive to give
weight to such an accusation" Martin
remarked.
''That may be true for those who have
made up their minds beforehand not to
believe him guilty. But the jury will
not be composed of such persons"

There is more Catarrh in this sestion
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For q
great many years doctors pronoupoed it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced It
incurable. Science has proven catarlh
to be unconstitutional disease, and there

DTSCTSsING REDUCED GRAIN RATES

There was full ATTENDANCE at the meeting yestor
dav of the Joint Executive Committee of the trunk
lines and their Western connections The trunk
line presidents were not hand, but there were
most of their leutenants present. The Grand Trunk
was represented by Traffic Manager Sergeant Vice
President Orland Smith and General Freight Agent
Halrott appeared for the Baltimore and Ohio and the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western was also repre-
scntcd.
The meeting took no definite action and adjourned
until today. The discussion mainly confined 70
the reduction in grain rates by the baltimore and
Ohio and the best method Of preventing the extension
of reductions and the largest possible restoration of
rates already ordered to be reduced. Practically the
only important roads that have met the Baltimore
and Ohio cuts are those included in the Pennsylvania
System.
It was declared by Acting Commissioner Bulen,
after the adjournment, that tho proceedings had been
entirely harmonious.
There IS a general disposition to protect the New
York and New gland traffic from the effect Of
promscuOus competition with the Baltimore and
Ohio and the Pennsylvania business Philadelphia
and Baltimore but the best method of so doing
could not be agreed upon. 1t is expected, that
favorable results will be accomplished at to-day ;
conference because of the prevailing sentiment in
favor of concerted and conservative action.
