Hendrika went off with a somewhat
ugly grin to do her mistress bidding,
and Stella led the way through the mar
row gateway in the marble wall, which
may have inclosed nearly half an ''erf,'

with which l was not acquainted. Pres
emily we came to the center hut, and it
was then that noticed the extraordinary
beauty and finish of the marble masonry
In the hut and facing the gateway was a
modern door, rather rudely fashioned of
Bucken pont, beautiful reddish wood
that has the appearance of having been
sedulously pricked with pin. Stella
opened it, and we entered. The interior
of the hut was the size of large and
lofty room, the walls being formed of
plain polished marble. 1t was lighted
somewhat dimly, but quite effectively,
by peculiar openings in the roof from
which the rain was excluded by over
hanging leaves. The marble floor was
strewn with native mats and skins of
animals. Bookcases filled with books
were placed against the walls, there was
a table in the center, chairs seated with
rimpi or strips of hide stood about, and
beyond the table was couch on which
a man was lying reading.

'No, father, dear, have not lost my
self, but have found somebody else"
At that moment I stepped forward so
that the light fell on me. The old gen
tleman on the couch rose with some
difficulty and bowed with much court
esq. He was fne-looking old man,
with deep-set dark eyes, pale face, that
bore many traces of physical and mental
suffering, and long white beard.
''Be welcome, SIR he said. sit is
long since we have seen white face in
these wilds, and yours, if am not mis-
taken, is. that of an Englishman, There

''How do you do, Mr.. Carson?' said.
He started back us though he had been
stung.
"Who told you that name:' he cried.

':Sir,'' broke in, elf you will allow

him that you were going to leave Eng

He bowed his head.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.

Rains in the Northwest that would natu-
rally delay the movement was used as cause
of higher markets. The opening ruled firm
but with prospects of good wheat weather
prices sold down quite easily. The rains in
the corn belt continued to depress values of
that cereal and were unfavorable in the in
f1uence of that grain on wheat values. Cables
remained firm, and after short seaso of de-
clines there was larger buying, induced by
the break and advances that followed.
Cooler weather was forecast from Washing
ton and frosts were again talked OF. President
Van Horn, of the Canadian Pacific, disputes
stories of poor crop in Manitoba, and says
it is the best for years. News from the north
says it will be few days yet with good
weather. before threshing can proceed, on

Notwithstanding the continuance of the
trouble with the employees of the switching
association, business at the yards proceeded
about as usual. Receipts reached average
proportions for Tuesday, but under an ac-
tive general demand the offerings were
readily absorbed, and at strong l.tices, though
the dressed beef men we're doing but little.
The demand from other sources for cattle
was sharp, and sales were made to better adj
vantage even than on the day before. The
hog market too, was active and strong. 1t
