nue., its boundaries HANDSOME houses and Its
roadway thronged with costly equipages
bearing well dressed men and beautiful wo-
men. Passing the house of a merchant
prince, he saw in the window fine bronze
group on stand; how different from the lit

which had been visible through his mothers
best room" window as long as he could re-
memberl
Yes, money was the sole cause of the differ
ence: money, or the lack of it, had cursed
his father, as it now was cursng him. None
of the elderly men he saw had faces more in
telligent than his father, yet at that very
moment the fine old man was probably clad
in oft patched trousers and cotton shirt, dig
ging muck from black Shiny pit to enrich
the thin soil of the wheat lot And his mo-
Their: it made his blood boil to think OF her in
faded calico preparing supper in the plain old
kitchen ut home, while scores of richly clad
women of her age, but without her alert,
smiling face, were leaning back in carriages
and seemingly unconscious of the blessing of
being exempt from honely toll.
And, coming back TO himself, money, or
lack of it, would soon Danish him from all
that now his eye was feasting upon. 1t
would also Danish him from Lucia He had
reed stories OF poor young men whom Won
drous chances of fortune had helped TO the
hands and hearts of beautiful maidens clad
in fine rsiment and wearing rare gems, but
he never had failed 10 remind himself that
such tales were only ronlances; now the
memory of them seemed only to emphasize
the sarcasm Of destiny. Money had made

riously at his attire; on the contrary, at
| least one lady, in a late party that boarded
the elevated train on which he was returning
| to his hotel, regarded him with evident adj
| miration. Not many days before, even this
| sort of attention would have made him I'M
comfortable, but the experiences of his even
ing at Miss Dinon's had impressed him with
the probability that he would be to a certain
degree an object of admiration, and he was
already prepared to accept it as a matter of
course-very much, in fact, as he had been
taught to accept whatever else which life
seemed sure to bring.
OF one thing he felt sure: Lucia did not re-
gard him unfavorably. Perhaps she did not
love him-he was modest enough to admit
that there was no possible reason why she
shouli-yet she had not attempted to with
draw that little hand-bless it when he was
covering it with kisses. She had appropriated
him, in the loveliest way imaginable, not only
once but several times during the evening,
showing marked preference for him. Per-
haps this was not so great compliment as at
first sight it seemed, for, hold his own face
and figure in as low esteem as he might, he
nevertheless felt sure that the best looking
young man in Miss Dinons parlors was
palmer and less manly than himself. But if
her acceptance of his homage and her selection
of him as her cavalier were not enough, there
was that jealous look, twice repeated. He
informed himself that the look did not be-
come her; it destroyed the charm of her ex-
preston; it made her appear hard and I'M
natural yet he would not lose the memory
of it for worlds.
Could it be true as he had heard while un-
intentionallya listener, that her father was
not richs Well, he was sorry for him; yet
this, too, was ground for hope. After what
he had heard, it was not impossible to be-
leve that perhaps the father of the country
youth, with his thirty or forty thousand dol
lars worth of good land, which had been
prospected as q possible site for village of
seaside cottages for rich people, might be no
poorer than the father of the city girl. 1t
seemed impossible, as he mentally compared
the residences of the two families, yet he had
heard more than once that city people as a
class seemed always striving to live not only
up to their incomes, but as far beyond them
as tradesmen and money lenders would al
low.
AS to the talk he had heard about Miss
Dinon, he resented it, and would not think of
it as in the least degree probable. To be sure,
he would not believe her Sc, though if she
were he heartily honored her that she had
lived so well as to look far younger than her
years. Still he was not to be bought, even
by handsome and intelligent woman It
was lot uncomplimentary, though, that any
one should have thought him SO attractive to
Miss Dinon-a woman whom he was sure
must have had plenty of offers in her day.

bohemian Girl.

Tomorrow morning the box Office at
the Opera House will open for the pur-
pose of reserving seats for the Choral
Clubs rendition of Bohemian Girl "
There is every indication that the rush
for seats on this occasion will surpass
anything of the kind ever witnessed
here. Heretofore the club has given its
performances two nights, which have
been attended by an average of 1900
people. On this occasion there cannot be
more than 800 accommodated. and as
the opera of Bohemian Girl is by far
the most ambitions work ever under
taken by the club and probably the most
popular opera sung, the attendance will
undoubtedly be very large. With view
OF giving the public the best possible
opportunities for reserving seats the
board Of directors have adopted the fol
lowing rules:
1. No one person will be allowed to re
serve more than twenty seats at one time
or until the rest of the people in lint
have been accommodated.
2 Persons who do not want to stan,
in line can send substitute. who vii
take the place in the name Of the former
8. The box Office will open shortly afte
s o'clock, and to allow those who hav
been in line early an opportunity to ge
| their breakfast the board of director
will send representative to the ticke
office at $50 o'clock, who willtake an off
cial list of names of those in line, afte
which persons are privileged to depart
but must return in time for roll-call a
o'clock or their names will be dropped
4. Any list started before the officia
list at 6. 80 o'clock only relieves person
from standing in line and does not gran
them the privilege of leaving
g. As each person puts his name on I'll
official list he must give the number
seats he wants to reserve, which cannC
be changed under any consideration.
6. Not a single seat will be allowed
be reserved before the regular time fC
opening the box Office.
