CHAPTER XIV.

A moonlit highland such n moon! II
hung like n clear lamp in the blue sky,
and the golden stars surrounded ii ms
coIrtiers do a queen. The dinner was
over ut Kings Ciyne. Lady Faync had
delighted every one with her magnificent
singing. Tempted by the lovely moon
light, many OF the guests had gone out in-
TO the grounds. Lady FayDe was talking
sentimcntally 10 the young Duke; Captain
LOrme would have fain done the same
thing, hut Lady Lilias would not listen
The moonlight lay like a silver veil over
tho fair earth, making the night almost ~
bright ana clear rs day; the Watctfhrown
up from the fountains was like silver; and
tAe tail trees threw graceful shadows on
Tie grass.
During dinner there had been some con-
ycrsatiou about tie pretty farmhouse, and
Vanc had listened with incXpressible
PAIN. lie hated the false co!ors under
which lie appeared, yet he could not
change matters now. lie knew nat Sir
Rayc would be greatly displcased if lie
did so, as one Of The conditions OF his adop-
ton had been that he should give up
home. NanC felt miScrabiy unhappy, and
wished hc had never accepted Lou Ci.arn-
woods inyitation-but then he would MOI
have seen Lady LiliaS, and She was so kind
and so gracious to him. lie awoke from his
|rcyeric To and Lady Liiias was near him.
White lilies were in the dead gold Of her
hair md in her dress of white silk with
rich trailing laccs, diamonds sparkled on
her lovely arms and neck, aud Il smile was
on her facc-sweeter, Vane thought, than
the face OF woman ever wore before.
'lvhat are you thinking about 80 deep
~, Mr.. Eibarl?" She asked. al have been
watching you for the last five minutes; you
look really as though YOU would never
smile again"
AS she spoke, she walked slowly from
the long French window Oh TO the terrace,
and he followed her. lie watched her as
she drew over her shoulders wrapper of
wLitc cashmere witt, golden fringe. There
in the moonlight her beauty gained fresh
radiance, for the light tcil fuil upon her
charming face and golden hair. She seem
cd to expect that he would accompany
her.
Every one prefers the moonlight" sh'
said. NV u are not singular III our taste
In few minutes they had reached the
gardens where the liiics stood in thict
clusters and the odorous roses filled the al
with perfume.
"You look like the queen Of the lilies
said Nane abruptly "and as Tor hc, Lad,
Li.ias, my reason j. going again, IN
senses are leaving mel"
There WAS no anger in the fair face.
"Rcmind ne, Will YOU, OF my folly" h'
went on-"rcmind me that you are as fai
above me n the stars. Send me ava
with cold and cruel ridicule, send me from
YOU with bitter words, Tor l love you-oh
Heaven, how | love you-and how utter
~ in vain.'
But no rebukc was in the sweet proud
lips, 40 scorn was in the beautiful eyes
lie saw a warm trcmulous flush which rose
even 10 the roots OF her hair-he saw a ten
der wisttul smile in her eyes; and he Wa.

That SehooI Rink Fraud.

Correspondence OF the Capital Journal
Once more we are called upon to
contribute to some one OF the unseen
agencies. Many school looks are
thrown aside and others far les. mer-
itorinus introduced, at very high
rate, and with the understanding
that these are introduction rates y
and the books will be higher. The
precocious youth now finds the
books necessary" to be good load
to carry. If the public schools and
the election of the law makers
were on the same day we should
have different lot, but we forgive
and can't forget, and stand by our
first love, and vote accordingly.
AS a matter of fact, we are not equal
to the task of getting our books
furnished by contract or changing
the law that binds US to accepting
any book at any price and could
most assuredly save by making
terms with our school superlnten-
dents and keep the same books from
time to time. There should he
limit to the number of auxiliary
books in schools. VICTIM.

In a Trance.

Shortly after the return home of
two young Georgians who gradual
ed with honors at medical college
and who thought what they didn't
know wasn't worth knowing, a
negro residing in the community
died of some strange disease, so
strange that the resident practicing
physician hesitated to designate for
it any of the nomenclature with
which their profession abounds.
The young graduates announced to
their inner circles of friends that
they intended to examine the corpse
and announce to the public the
cause of the death. They invited a
party of chums to witness the ex-
animation. A vacant, one-room
house was secured, located on the
main street. A large vat was secur-
ed and into this a solution of pre-
pared stuff was poured, which was
intended 20 preserve the body and
keep it in its perfect state. The
grave was opened and the corpse
taken out and put in the vat. Every
thing worked smoothly and the die
cussion was to take place the next
night. The party was formed, the
night for the examination had come.
The body was floating in the vat,
face upward. 1t was taken out and
placed on the table. AS the first
knife touched the corpse the body
quivered. A shudder passed over
the student. His associates, more
bold, grasped the knife and attempt
ed to cut the body. AS the blade
pierced the form the supposed dead
man again quivered and moan es-
capped from his lips and he sat up
right. The students and their
friends dashed for open air, the corpse
following. The negro had been in a
trance.
