 busy that she had only peeped into the par lors and few of the chambers. Oracle was with them, holding fast to tho hand of her new mother; she clung to her even now, and her artless affection was very dear to the young girl, ,who felt her motherhood such responsibility.
 "Mrs. Montford and have lived SO quiet ly we have seen no need for changes, but shall be happy to make any which you may suggest"
 'There is one ideal room which miss in the house," she replied. "Every thing is rich and beautiful, and with few touches of arrangement, arc all that can be desired, but the rooms lack the element of coziness which should like to embody in family sitting-room, in which to spend our even. ings."
 "Then you do not intend to spend your evenings at Mme As ball and Mrs. R's musicale, and so on through the listi' and he looked at her with amused interest.
 s'Not unless must" she answered. "lf you wish me to, I will try to please you, but have had little opportunity for reading, and was hoping that you would help me in selecting and digesting some of these books which look so tempting to me" and her eyes rested lovingly on magnificent bookcase filled with valuable books. 'I shall be only too happy to-" he replied in a tone of relief; "to tell the truth, society is a consummate. bore to me, ,:unless taken in homeopathic doses, but did not wish to pin you down to my quiet life; now for your idea of room.''
 II think had better not tell you," she | said, playfully; "Gracie and will surprise l you some evening""
 He stood biting his lip in grave indecision 'I think, Mrs. Falconer," he said at last, "that there is such a room in the house, but 1 it is never opened except when Mrs. Mont | ford dusts and cleans it; would you like to see it2"
 l She looked in his face, and read the truth. 1 "1t is your first wife's room," she said, gent ly; forgive me for touching on a subject which l fear has given you pain" l ''No, no, not that" he said ''the room is very dear to me, and when you have seen it, you will read her character in it, l think" !" They turned and went silently up the stairs to door which he reverently un. locked, and they entered. It was revelation of pure, sweet mind, as everywhere the eye met light and deli. cate things; pink and white were the main colors used in it's adornment; the walls were tinted pink, with cornice of ivory white the windows were curtained in delicate hlmy lace, looped back with pink satin rib bons; small bookcase filled with her favor l lte books; cabinet organ stood in g corner l With an open book on the rack; dainty, rest 1 ful chairs, ornamented with laces and plnk
 ribbons, stood about in unstudied positions as if the owner had but just placed them l there.

back in primitive style" She smiled at the recollection. "But I think l should like it exceedingly well, however"
 "Then you had better order a habit, for Doll, one of the carriage horses, is very gentle animal, and am very fond of horse back riding With a few lessons at the riding school I think you will make very graceful rider"
 She turned to him gratefully. "You forget nothing that can add to my happi- ness," she said, and involuntary tears of pleasure stood in her eyes.
 1T should hope not" he replied, smiling |" it would be unpardonable should invite lady to my home and then neglect her"
 They were riding now out beyond the business portion of the city, past elegant residences and palatial homes.
 "You have told me SO little of your early life," he said. "I should like to hear how your childhood was spent"
 "It was a meager and cramped child hood," she replied, thoughtfully. "Of my parents I remember nothing, and Aunt Debby always seemed strangely reticent ln regard to them.''
 And your aunt?''
 "Was always very kind to me, SO far as she dared to be; Uncle John is very un- reasonable when he has been drinking, and not only abuses me, but his own children end his wife. His downward career has been very rapid for the last five years, and from being the owner of a comfortable home he is now obliged to live In miser- able rented cottage, not nearly large enough for the family, while they would actually suffer for necessities if aunt did not sew con- stantly. I have helped her to clothe the children, what could from my own scanty earnings, but I must confess did not see it a duty to go beyond that in the family of a great able-bodied man, when he was spend ing the greater part of his earnings in dfinR,' and her eyes flashed angrlly.
 "You did quite right" said MT. Falconer, decidedly; "there are some classes of poor whom it is a positive injury to help"
 The answer to MT. Falconer's letter came in due time; it was characteristic of Mrs. Stanford, bewailing his hastY marriage in one breath, and congratulating him in an. other, and he smiled as he read aloud: "l will visit you as soon after the wedding as can be spared. Lilly sends greeting to Mrs. Falconer, and bids me say that her remem- brance of her is a very pleasant one," but the main part of the letter he wisely kept to himself.
 "The dear grl," said Isabel, in grateful relief "1 believe l shall find my first i'm pression of her correct"
 A few days later charming little note came from Lilly herself, acknowledging the gift of the picture. 'You say, dear Uncle Harvey, that it was my new auntie's selec tion; she must have exquisite taste, and nothing could have pleased both Ralph and myself more perfectly. Thank her for me until can thank you both in person, which hope to do soon after our return from the mountains"
 "Do you see any changes you would like to make2'

jackson Wins.

The great pugilistic encounter be-
tween Peter Jackson, the colored
Australian, and Jem Smith, the Eng
fish champion, for purse Of G1, 900,
took place at the Pelican club, Lon
don, Sunday night. The referee gave
the fight to jackson on foul in the
second round.
In the first round there were many
heavy exchanges. In the second
round Smith appeared to be winded
and jackson forced the fighting, and
knocked the English champion all
over the ring. Finally Smith made
II rush and threw jackson. Smith
tried to resume the fight with bare
knuckles, but the police seized him
and persuaded him to shake hands
with his antagonist. Smith was
beaten at all points.

County Official Paper.
Politics M MONTANA.

There = going to be lovely muddle
in Montana before long. Judge Do
Wolf the other day issued peremp-
tory writ Of mandate, ordering the
Canvaasing Board Of Silver Bow
county to count the disputed Tunnel
precinct, and the order was obeyed.
This elected tho Democratic deleGa-
ton to the lower house Of the Legis-
Iature, and the county authorities
issued certificates Of election in 40
oordance with the returns. But the
State Board Of Canvassers had al
ready given certificates to the Repub-
Gcan candidates. As matters stand,
therefore, Silver Bow county will
send to the Legislature six Demo
Gratis, whose rights are admitted, and
tour whose seats are contested. II
the whole ten are allowed to take
their seats there will be Democratic
majority of three. II all the contested
seats are left vacant until the house
decides who is entitled to them there
will be temporary Republican ma
iority Of one. But neither side would
have q quorum, 30 that either party,
by withdrawing, could prevent an ad-
verse decision.
The Democrats have the Governor
and the Republicans the Lieutenant
Governor, which gives them the con-
troll Of the Senate, that body being
tied. Suppose each party in the lower
house should decide to break the
deadlock by recognizing it's own con-
testants. Each side could then Or
ganize house containing more than
quorum. The Democratic Governor
would recognize the Democratic As
sembly, and the Republican Senate
would recognize the Republican AS
sembly. This would prevent the
possibility of any legislation by either
party, but the Senate might join the
Republican House in electing Repub-
lican United States Senators. The
Democratic Governor, of course,
would refuse to give them certificates
Of election, and then the case would
come before the United States Senate,
which has a Republican minority.
All that makes an interesting stu
alton. There are plenty Of minor
complications, such as the fact that
the admission OF the State puts Judge
De Wolfe out of office and that there
are two claimants to his seat, each of
whom desires to do something in the
Silver Bow matter, but the possibili-
ties already mentioned are enough to
keep the people of Montana from for
getting all about politics in an of
year, Examiner.

CLAYTON, n. NJ, Nov. s.-Unless the
snow-storm which has been raging Tor
eight days comes to an end soon next
summer will show n country covered
with dead bodies Of animals rs thickly
as was the old Santa Fe trail in the '00s.
The depth Of the snow now is not less
than twenty-six inches on level, and
In many places 1t has driftcd to seven
feet high.
When the storm struck this section
seven large herds Of cattle. numbering
from 400 to 1900, were being held near
this place awaiting shipment to Eastern
markets. Tho blizzard sent them In a
southerly direction. The half-frozen
cowboys tried In vain to check the
herds. Finding it utterly impossible, they
rode their exhausted horses into the
canyons or partially sheltered places,
where they passed many hours In misery,
without food or fre. The cowboys went

cedar tree with which they managed to
make fire. During the second night one
Of their horses died and the men cut
pieces Of flesh from the dead animal,
which they warmed and atc without
salt. After remaining there sixty hours
they started out, and after much suffer-
ing and hardship reached a ranch thirty
miles away, where they were cared for.
Five cowboys arc known to be frozen
to death. They are Henry Miller, John
Martin, Charles jolly and two men un-
known. Two Mexican sheep-herders
have been found frozen to death, one
near Tramperos and another on small
creek near town. Two men coming in
this morning report drifts in some places
seven and eight feet high In which are
hundreds Of dead stock, many with only
their heads and horns above the snow.
In ono drift thirteen were counted and
In another ten. Some OF these were
alive. but unable to move. Herbs of
sheep are completely wiped out OF
existence and the range for thirty miles
from town Is covered with their dead
carcasses. 1t Is estimated that 10000
sheep have pcrished In this part Of the
Territory. At present 1t Is impossible
to estimate the number Of cattle lost, but
it is probably In the thousands.
Every place Of shelter in the town is
being used as barns for snow-bound
horses. The hay supply is nearly ex-
hausted, and 500 ton was offered by
stockmen and the otter was rc.
fused. At Texline, nino miles be-
low Clayton, two passenger trains
have been snow-bound for week.
Provisions running out, the pas
scngers were compelled to venture
out In the storm and kill cattle, the
quarters Of which we're taken into the
cars and roasted. 1t Is thought snow
plow will reach the imprisoned trains to-
day and release them and that the road
will BIO opened in day or two. The
storm is by far the worst ever known In
New Mexico. The exact loss of life and
property can not at present be estimated.
