amused and half angry tone.

nance out Of these footprints on the sand,
and the little subsequent events. But you
have not heard all my thrilling tale. Old
Edward also informed me that he saw your
sister, Miss Elizabeth, going along the cliff
almost level with you, from which he had
concluded that you had argued as to the
shortest way to the Red Rocks, and were
putting the matter TO the proof"
Elizabeth" said Beatrice, turning Q
shade paler, "What can she have been doing,
I wonder?"
'Taking exercise, probably, like yourself.
Well, I seat myself with nv pipe in the
shadow Of that rock, when suddenly see
Mr. Davies coming along toward Bryngelly
as though he were walking for wager, his
hat fixed upon the back Of his head. Liter
ally he walked over my legs and never saw
me. Then you follow and calculate, No,
neverP'-and that is the end Of my story.
Have your permission to walk with YOU,
or shall interfere with the Developments OF
the plot?"
"Thereis no plot, and, as you said Just
now, the beach is free" Beatrice answered
petulsntly.

yes; see lot of that, too. and it does my
old heart good. Why, there's many young

upon early marriage, or marriage at all,
unless they make the selection, who do all
their counting on the cars. The young lady
will get on uptown, let US say, and few
blocks further down she will be Joined
by the young man. Their efforts to make
it appear that the meeting is pure

but they don't blind old veterans such as 1.

I've seen one of these couples ride down
very nearly to the ferry, get off and board
another car bound uptown. They can keep
it up all day if they feel so disposed and are
not detected.
81 have known an angry father and an
angry mother, too, on another occasion to
appear on the scene just when they were
least wanted. Nothing of an open nature
occurred in the car, but noticed tnat the
lovers left as soon as they could do so with
any degree of dignity, and from the light in
the old folks eyes judged that there
would be rough weather of coast for some
body before long,"

to patch of white sand. "That, I think. is

little laugh.
Nothing in particular, except that it is
your footprint" he answered. "Then hap

Mr.. Davies had gone up the beach; there is

quire every farthing of the money to sup
port herself; there would be nothing left to
send home. It was pitiable position;
here was she who had just refused man
worth thousands year quite unable to get
out of the way of his importantly for the
want of e75, paid quarterly. Well, the
only thing to do was to face it out and take
her chance. On one point she was, how
ever, quite clear; she would not marry
Owen Davies. She might be fool for her
pains, but she would not do it. She re-
spected herself too much to marry a man
she did not love-a man she positively dis
liked. "No, neverP' she exclaimed, aloud,
stamping her foot upon the shingle.
"Never what?" said voice within two
wards of her.
She started violently and looked round.
There, his back resting against q rock, q
pipe in his mouth, an open letter on his
knee and his hat drawn down almost over
his eyes, sat Geoffrey. He had left Efie to

down a sloping place in the elf, had strolled
along the beach. The letter on his knee
was one from his wife. 1t was short, and
there was nothing particular in 1t. Effie's
name was not even mentioned. 1t was to

was reading the note through again. No,

days of the war, just before the Emancipa;;
tion Proclamation had been issued, and
when the colored man was the prominent
factor In every mans mind. Stanton was
sitting at his family table one evening, when
bundle of mail was brought to him direct
from the postofice. In it there was little
package Of about the size of the box which
held the cartridge received by Senator In
gals. The package was opened, and inside
the paper there was long, round roll OF
linen cloth about an inch in diameter: Sec
retary Stanton took out the pin which held
the roll and began to unwind it. He went
on, and after two wrappers had been re-
moved the chastity thumb of negro was
found within. 1t had blooded the rag which
was around it, and it had evidently been cut
from living man, or one who had puI

eyewitness OF the opening tells me that the

buffers of California for nothing, and, like
many of his brother Senators, he is by no
means averse to a bet Not long ago he en-
tered a well-known restaurant of San Fran
CISCO and on the blackboard at the back OF
the bar he saw the word bird" among the
items of the bill of fare. It was spelled
'Birde" and Hearst at once called up the
keeper OF the restaurant, who was noted
California character, and said:
"See here, Blank, that's devil of way
to spell bird Dou't you know any better
than that? You ought to spell it 'b-u-r-d.
COULD SPELL IF MONEY WAS IN IT.
81 would have you understand, George
Hearst, replied the restaurant keeper, "that
am just as good speller as you, and am
willing to leave it to the best scholar in the
room that you don't know any more about
the matter than do. In other words, III
bet you a basket of champagne that you
can't spell bird the right way"
Done" said Hearst.
"All right" said the man, "and here is
piece of paper Tor you to put it down In
black and white"
With that he handed Hearst sheet Of
brown paper, and Hearst with a stub pencil
wrote out the letters:
"The right way to spell it is BIRD"
But" said the restaurant keeper, You
spelled it first with a 'u.'"
Senator Hearst threw himself back and
looked the restaurant man in the eve.
And" said he, "did you think that 1 was
blanked fool enough to spell bird with
u when there was any money up on it?"

for some cigars-two for aquarter. He said
he hadn't any of that price cigar.
''There is only one time in the year" he
continued, "when I have them. That is

quarter cigars then, and after that they
either quit smoking altogether or else they
smoke cheaper ones. Last Christmas the

true, succeeded in postponing it a little, but
she knew very well that it was only post
ponement Owen Davies was not man to
be easily shaken off, She almost wished
now that she had crushed the idea once and
for all. But then he would have gone to

Then there was Elizabeth to be reckoned
with. Elizabeth would assuredly make her
life burden to her. Beatrice little guessed
that nothing would suit her sisters book
better. Oh, if only she could shake the
dust of Bryngelly off her feetl But that,
too, was impossible. She was quite without
money. She might, it is true, succeed in
getting another place as mistress to a school
in some distant part of England, were it not
for an insurmountable obstacle. Here she
received salary Of Els year; of this she
kept Els, out of which slender sum she con-
trived to dress herself; the rest she gave to
her father. Now, as she we'll knew, he

took it to San Francisco and deposited it
with banker named Lent. A few DAYS
later Lent's bank broke, and Hearst found
himself poorer than when he came to Cali
fornia. He had scarcely the money to buy
q new pick, but be borrowed enough to put
himself on his feet, and his good fortune
STAYED with him. He kept on making
money, and he has at times owned mines
and mills on the Pacific coast which gave
employment to 1000 men and crushed !, 900
tons of ore every day.
THE SENATOR'S INTERESTS.
"He is still interested in mining and he
has farms containing some of the finest
blooded stock in the West. One OF his farms
has 40 900 acres. He is the owner Of the
San Francisco Examiner, and be has some
of the fastest horses of the country. He has
always been liberal in his gifts to the party
and the Democrats gave him their unani-
nous minority vote for United States Sena-
tor when Stanford was elected by the Re
publicans"

flliterate man, but Senator Frye tells story
that illustrates both his education and his
pluck. He has not played cards among the
