in him. she said, $50 | broke the
engagement between MS and mar
ried rich man. That was two
years ago. Passing through this
town, we stopped to resi- a few
days, and | saw You this evening,
and that is all. You know the
rest"
"Go !"
1t was all that Alma could say.
The woman turned with light
laugh and swept from the room
like a shadow.
Alma threw white shawl
around her shoulders and left the
house. She wanted to get out in
The open air and fight her battle
alone. Not that she loved HIM less
she could never do that.
Down on the river road, an hour
later, she found herself face TO face
with Mark Cameron. He took her
in his arms and drew her close to
his heart.
Il have seen that woman" he
said, calmly-"the woman whom |
once fancied that | loved. She
will trouble you no more, Alma.
Dear love, the black shadow is
gone from between us forever.
After | left you | was called to the
bedside OF Il man who had fallen
from his horse and was brought
into the hotel to die. Alma, |
found in him the man who had
married Miss Garth, the woman
whom we met this evening. He
died half hour ago. Before he
breathed his last he sent for a mag
istrate and had his disposition
taken, which eXonerates me torev-
er from that old haunting horror.
He swore that TO win Miss Garth
he had committed the forgery and
had thrown the blame upon me.
Alma, dear, true love, there is no
longer any shadow of sin be-
tween us. You love me-will you
be my wife? 2"
Her head rests upon his heart
she whispers softly:
Il have always believed YOU
never once doubted you~but for
your sake ] thank God that the
dark shadow is gone from your life
forever
Truly, "human love that clings
through good ana i'll report and
remains faithful to the end is but Il
reelection Of that divine sympathy
that laid down its life for us ALL"

WHAT'S UNNECESSARY.

A gentleman ofsianding and rep
utation in this country was at an
informal dinner given the other
night TO half q hundred New York
ers, says the New York Sun. He
was called upon for a speech. He
chose for a subject ''The Harrison
Administration" and when well
along in his remarks he told what
in his opinion, were the chief re-
quisiles for office under this admin
istrati0n. Gentlemen" said he

THE TWO SPEAKERS.
birmingham News.

birmingham News.
The new speaker of the House OF
the Mississippi Legislature, Mr..
Madison, is very much like Reed,
Speaker of Congress. Madison is
laller than Reed, by fifty pounds,
and has a balder pate. Reed may
be wittler, but in solil "horse
sense" and IN ayoirdupOise, Madi-
son first kicks the beam. Then
Madison is OF royal blood, of most
illustrious Virginians. These two
men will serve at least to show how
corporeal fatness affects partisan
conceptions OF inter-race relations.
The oleagmousness of Reeds har-
rangues, when dealing with north
ern sentimenlalism sickens his
Mississippi counterpart, who uses
Reeds phillipics as he does seltzer
powders, TO blow himself up, and
then he blows up Reed. His
breezy speeches, under these cir
cumslances. won for him the hon
or he has achieved at Jackson
Reed is proud of his greasy obesity;
Madison of his practical wisdom,
and both have been heard solilo-
quizing:
"Pm longer round from head to tail,
ethan mammoth elephant or whale,
'Infated with supreme intensity,
Il fill these quarters of immensity."
Reed when thus happily sentI-
mental, rubs his prodigious paunch
and Madison has a coal black bar
Der shining up" his luminous
skull.

Beyond doubt the negro is in
this country to stay. Some believe
there are more negroes in America
than in Africa. 1t is not likely
that the number will ever be re-
duced, for the negro race is the
most prolific in the world. The
theory advanced years ago that
mulaltOes and quadrOons would
not be as prolific as persons OF pure
blood is found 10 be incorrect.
Tho negro can be relied upon to
multiply if not 10 replenish the
earth. He can also be depended
on TO remain with the whites. He
knows what is best for him, though
it may not be The best for them.

Let the man who is too poor to
take his home paper, but pays for
a city paper, ask himself the ques-
ton: Do the city papers ever give
any home news ? No Do they con-
tain notices of your churches,
schools, improvements. and a hun
dred other matters of local interest
which your home paper furnishes
YOU without a cent Of pay. Not an
itaml DO they ever say a word
calculated to draw attention 10
your county and aid in the enter
prise of your communilyg Not a
word ! Aud vet there are men
who have such contracted views
that they think unless the home
paper give them as many square
inches as the city paper, they are
not getting the worth of their mon
ey. They are are like the fellow

leather for the same money not
