you any objection to allowing us the prlvio
lege of spending an hour In your cottage
We have quite a curiosity to see the place.
"Oh, sure We are heartily welcome, SIT,
and the young lady, too. lndade | am only
sorry that the house is not claner than IL IS,
but such as it is We are thruly welcome TO IL
from top TO bottom, and don't De at al I'M
alsy about the throabIe. Sure it's glad am
to be able to give ye liberty to so wherever
ye phase, sir"
THANK you, Mrs. Jones; am sure your
kindness is all that we could wish.
Mrs. Jones was as good as her word, and
they had ample opportunity to see the mouse
under her supervision. Inc droll manner
in which she entertained them while open
ing the several rooms for their inspection
was, indeed, a treat in itself, and they lett

is not Mansfield, as 1 have led you 10 be-
lieve, and trust you will forgive the de-
ception when l have time to explain. l pur-
posely concealed the fact of my wealth that
| might win a woman who could love me
for myself alone. This property belongs to
me, and l am Alfred WapOle, at your ser
vice"
The surprise did not affect Ella enough to
cause a reaction of her feelings toward her
lover, and they returned TO her father s
house as happy as mortalS can be IN this
wicked world.
When Mr. and Mrs Forester were ap-
prised Of the state OF affairs they gave their
consent with a good grace 1t is to be sup
posed that the property question had some
thing to do with their part of the programme,
but then l dare say the reader will not
blame them much for that, as it is a part
of the depravity OF human nature.-N. I.

A DREARY DAY.
I'm Memory of Charlotte.l
Written for THE MORNING CALI

Written for THE MORNING CALI
All day the thick gray clouds hung low,
Beneath the gray sea rolled;
But at the vesper hour the sun
Burst forth in floods OF gold.
The clouds were tiuged with gorgeous tints,
The seas duh pillows shone
With golden. crimson, roseate lights,
The gloom, for aye, seemed gone.
But soon the glory passed away,
The wOndrous sunset died;
Above-the gray clouds closed againi
Beneath-the gray sea sighed.
Some lives there are like dreary days
Where sunlight never falls
Until the last, the final hour,
When Deaths chosen Angel calls.
Then. shining with her living faith,
The soul at parting breath
Leaves in a glory luminous
The caeeriess shores OF death

COMPARATIVE FIGURES.

Fruit, Wine and Passenger Traffic Over
the Southern Pacific.
General Freight Agent Smurr Of the
Southern Pacific states that up to Tuesday
2OT5 carloads of green deciduous fruit had
been shipped over Southern Pacific lines to
the East, against 1920 carloads for the pre-
vlous year. 1t is estimated that at least
1900 carloads Of raisins will be shipped out
of the State this year, judging from the good
crops everywhere in California, or an in
crease of $50 carloads over 1890, the total
shipments for which were 1850 carloads, or
$4,000 600 pounds. The wine shipments will
be in excess of that years shipment of $500
carloads, or 40, 350, 900 pounds. The prune
shipment by rail will, in his judgment, equal
that of the previous year, which was 12,000,-
600 pounds, or 600 carloads. There has
Deen n slight falling off in canned goods
shipments, but they will doubtless exceed
1000 carloads. 1t will thus be seen that the
rail shipments of CALIFORNIA; leading prod
ucts this season, aside from cereals, will
amount to about II, 600 carloads.
