Her voice rose to a scream, which in
its agony pierced Dorothy's heart
'Oh, do something for her-do
something for her!" she entreated,
raising tear-dimmed eyes TO the sur
geon's face.
But even rs the words left her lips
they saw that it was too late.
Lady Ruskln's voice ceased sudden
ly; she fell back-she was dead.
But with death stealing swiftly upon
each one of that little devoted band
there did not seem SO great a gulf be-
tween them.
Each minute licked by the clock
brought the end nearer, nearer,
nearer.
All who could do service were
doing what their failing means allow
ed To prolong the struggle in
despairing hope; but Dorothy knelt
by Lord Testers side in the room in
which her dead cousin lay.
Eberhard had sunk upon a couch,
exhausted by the effort lately made.
Dorothy held his hand in silence; his
was pillowed on his shoulder; her
other hand held the tiny revolver
firmly.
You will remember" she said,
looking in his face for an instant
I'VE will die together" he said,
quietly. "Ah, darling, that is all We
can hope for nowm
hneeling there the girl prayed half
audibly, half brokenly, and the mans
deeper voice joined in the holy solemn
words.
Only Higher Power could save
them now; all hope OF human aid was
given up.
"'What is that-what is that?"
Dorothy exclaimed, suddenly starting
TO her feet. 'Oh, Eberhard, is it
true?"
She raised her revolver and looked
at him.
"Hush." he said, putting his hand
on the tiny weapon, as he stood erect
listening intently with ashen face.
"Those are not the voices Of those
brutes outsides, Dorothy; that is an
English cheer-those are our own
men joining! That is the strain of an
advancing band. They are here at
last! They are coming in time! Ny
darling, we are saved"
For one instant Dorothy stood lis
tening TO the advancing clear-growing
sounds-stood with her lovers arm
tightly around her, her pale pure face
! irradiated by wondrous glow.
For one instant she turned and look
ed into the eyes seeking hers with
passion of tenderness and love in their
depths.
Then, as the rescuing music echoed
close at hand, and the cheers rose
long and loud, the girl slipped to the
ground, and knelt there with clasped
hands and appraised eyes.
LET us thank God, Eberhard, she
sobbed.

In conversation with Hon. W. D. Hill, of
this city, regarding the mention of his name
by number of Democratic papers through
out the State, as candidate for the nomina-
tion for Governor before the next State con-
vention, Mr.. Hill informed us that he would
not be a candidate, a decision that will be re-
gretted by many of the friends who would be
pleased to see him make the race, and be-
lieve that should he benominated he could be
elected as easily as any man in the State.
He is acknowledged to be one of the best
party organizers and public speakers in the
ranks of the Ohio Democracy, and if he could
be persuaded to enter the field, in the event
of his nomination wonld make it exceeding
ly warm for the opposition. As campaign
speaker he has few equals. His candidacy
would add strength and vigor to the canvas,
and it is hoped, that, should there be uni
versal demand upon the part of his friends
that he allow his name to 60 before the con-
vention, he will reverse his decision and act
in accordance with their wishes. IF it be the
will and wish of the party that Hill be NOM
mated, we are for Hill.-Def0nce Democrat.
