1t had been a warm morning An I'M
usual mist which the sun had not dissi-
pated had Crept on from the great grain
field beyond, and hung around the house
charged with dry, dusty closeness that
seemed to be quite independent of the suns
rays, and more like heated eXhalation or
emanation of the soil itself. In it's acrid
irritation Rose thought she could detect
the breath of the wheat as on the day she
had plunged into its pale green shadows.
BY the afternoon this mist had disap-
peared, apparently in the same mysterious
manner, but not scattered by the usual
trade wind, whiCh-another unusual cir
cumstance-that day was not forthcoming.
There was breathlessness in the air like
the hush of listening expectancy which
filled the young girl with vague restless
ness, and seemed to even affect scattered
company of crows in the field beyond the
house which rose suddenly with startled
but aimleSs wings and then dropped va
cantly among the grain again.
Mai. Randolph was inspecting distant
part of the ranch, Mrs Randolph was pre-
sumably engaged in her boudoir, and Rose
was sitting between Adele and Emile be-
fore the piano in the drawing room. list
leSsly turning over the leaves of some mu-
sic. There had been an odd mingling OF
eagerness and abstraction in the usual at
tentions of the young man that morning,
and a certain nervous affectation in his
manner Of twisting the ends Of small
black mustache which resembled his mo-
theirs eyebrows, that had affected Rose
with half amused. half uneasy conscious
ness, but which she had, however, referred
to the restlessness produced by the wealth
er. 1t occurred to her also that the vacu-
ously amiabIe Adele had once or twice re-
garded Ter with the,same precocious, child
like curiosity and infantine cunning she
had once before exhibited.
AL this did not, however, abate her ad-
mir1tion for both-perhaps particularly
for this picturesquely gentlemanly young
fellow, with his gentle audacities of COM
pliment, his caressing attentions and his
unfailing and equal address. And when,
discovering that she had mislaid her fan
for the fifth time that morning, he started
up with equal and undiminished fire to go
again and fetch it, the look of grateful
pleasure and pleading perplexity in her
pretty eyes might have turned less con-
ceited brain than his

time mortined at their civil fnslncerlty.
At the end of two weeks Maj. Randolph
received letter from Mr.. Mallory. When
he had read it he turned to his wife. "He
thanks you," he said, ''for your kindness to
his daughter, and explains that his sudden
departure was owing to the necessity of
his taking advantage of great opportunity
for speculation that had offered" AS Mrs.
Randolph turned away with slight shrug
Of her shoulders the major continued:
But you haven't heard all. That oppor-
tunity was the securing of a half interest
in Cinnabus lode in Sonora, which has
already gone up hundred thousand dol
lars in his hands. By Jove! a man can
afford to drop little social ceremony on
those terms, eh, Josephine?" he concluded
with a triumphant chuckle.
Hes as likely to lose his hundred thou

MAN," said Mrs. Randolph. ''Pve no
faith in these sudden California fortunes
YOU'RE wrong as regards Mallory, for
he's as careful as he is lucky. He don't
throw money away for appearance sake, or
he'd have rich home for that daughter.
He could afford it."
Mrs. Randolph was silent. "She is his
only daughter, l believe" she continued
presently.
eyes; he has no other kith or kim" re-
turned the major.
"She seems to be very much impressed
by Emile" said Mrs. Randolph.
Maj. Randolph faced his wife quickly.
"In the name of all that's ridiculous, my
dear, you are not already thinking off,
he gasped.
II should be very 10th to give my sane
ton to anything of the kind, knowing the
difference of her birth, education and re-
ligion, although the latter, believe, she
would readily change" said Mrs. Randolph
severely. But when you speak of my al
ready thinking of such things do you sup
pose that your friend Mr.. Mallory didn't
consider all that when he sent that girl
here?"
Never" said the major vehemently;
land if it entered his head now, by Jove!
he'd take her away to-morrow-always
supposing l didn't anticipate him by send
ing her off myself"
Mrs. Randolph uttered her mirthless
laugh. And you suppose the girl would
go? Really, major, you don't seem to TN
derstand this boosted liberty of your own
countrywomen. What does she care for
her fathers control? Why, she'd make
him do just what she wanted. But" she
added with an expression of dignity, 'pcr-
haps we had better not discuss this until
we know something of Emile's feelings in
the matter That is the only question that
concerns us" With this she swept out of
the room, leaving the major at first speech
less with honest indignation, and then,
after the fashion of all guileless natures, a
little uneasy and suspicious of his own
guilelessness. For a day or two after he
found himself not without sensation of
meanness, watching Rose when in Emile's
presence, but he could distinguish nothing
more than the frank satisfaction she showed
equally to the others. Yet he found him
self regrettiug even that, so subtle was the
contagion of his wifes suspicious.

SILCOTT'S VICTIMS.
Some Representatives Who Will Not Ac-
cept the Money Voted Them.

Some Of the members who argued on the
floor of the House against voting money to re-
imburse themselves out of the government
Treasury for the money stolen by Silcott are
maintaining the consistency OF their position
by covering back into the Treasury the money
paid them on that account
Mr.. Sayers (Tex.) and Mr.. Bland CMo. have
already returned their drafts to the Treasury
and others, it is understood will follow their
example. The number who will do this, how
ever, will probably not be large.
TO RESTORE The MONEY TO THE TREASURY.
lis proposed by number of members who
do not feel that they have a right to the money
to pass bill providing that none remaining
IN the hands of the sergeant-a -arms at the
end OF the Congress shall be covered into the
Treasury, as Was done III the case o. the salar J
grab of '73.
This Is the plan proposed by Mr.. Holman
and II Is the only one by which the money may
be surely got back into the Treasury unless the
money is put TO the credit OF the conscience
fund. thing some of the members object to-
II they pass the bill covering leftover funds
into the Treasury the members who do not feel
thatlt Is right to reimburse themselves will sim
ply not draw the money, and in the course of
time It will go back into the Treasury.
FIFTY-oSE PER CENT THAT THEY MAY ACCEPT
WITHOUT sCRCPLE-
At the time Of the defalcation an amount Of
money still remained in the sergeant-at-arms'
Office which if distributed pro rata among the
members would have amounted to about 81 per
cent
They are therefore entitled to this much
money without regard to the merits of the
question OF reimbursement for the defalcation
Most Of the members Will take this 81 per cent
and turn over the rest
There Is no disposition on the part Of those
members who Will not take the money to cast
any reflection on their colleagues who do, and
they are somewhat embarrassed in their desire
10 refuse the money graciously.

WHO Is TO BLAME FOR TIP
BAD Docking or a Bad Dock Strained
the Baltimore and Caused Leaks

1t Is fact that is not generally known that
the magnificent new cruiser Baltimore went to
sea from Norfolk recently with some of her
seams amidships newly caulked in
order to prevent leakage. A report
was received at the Navy Depart-
ment the other day from the civil engineer Of
the Norfolk navy yard stating that the Balti-
more was considerably strained when she was
placed IN the new timber dock there, causing
quite leakage before the water was all
pumped out of the dock
A hasty examination showed that one or two
seams in the amidship' bulkhead had started.
and caulking was necessary in order to allow
the vessel to go to sea-
TWO OPINIONS AS TO THE CAUSE.
A question Immediately arose as to the cause
OF this, and rapid survey OF the dock was
made. The civil engineer reports that in his
opinion the bottom OF the dock had settled
about nlne-tenths of an inch, while
the Simpson Company, the builders OF
the dock, say that they do not believe the dock
has settled at all, and that if the ship was
strained II was due 10 bad docking. This il
most generally believed for it is thought to be
absurd that the settlement Of a frac-
ton OF an inch, or even OF two or
three inches, in dock 500 feet long would
