CHAPTER VII.


 'Do know the Besants, Marl1?''
 The speaker was Mrs. Burrows, a Inatron so young and pretty that one could see at a glance that the honey moon had not yet reached its wane. "Why, of course I do, and if you'd taken the trouble to read my letters you would have discovered that l consider Mrs. Besant the quite too sweetest thing in the way of widows I ever saw or read a-1ut. What the men are thinking of to let her wear her weeds so long I'm sure I don't know. If were a man"
 (Which, thank goodness, you're not" manly voice interrupted. "The fact is, Mark, somebody once told Flossie that there is a strong resemblance be- tween her aHa-Mrs. Resant, and ever since she's done nothing but rave about her perfections."
 "Oh, Harry Burrows, you wicked story-teller," the little lady flashed in- ! dignantly. q only wish I were like Mrs. Besant. Now, Mark, don't pay any attention to his interruptions-Id do know this lady very we'll, and think her as near perfection as it is possible l for woman to be. She might be little too old for you-but, don't know-she doesn't look half her age-and, oh, wouldn't it bc nice, if-"
 A roar ol laughter from her husband interrupted the current of her remarks:
 ''Well," he cried, eff that isn't the boldest flight of feminine imagination ever listened tol Why, Mark, Mrs Besant is forty, if she is day, and much too sensible woman to encour age a filtration with a man younger than herself, even if you were eprii with her undeniable charms"
 "Now this comes of visiting pair O. spoons like you two," Henderson said with assumed regret. "I can not ask { simple question about a neighbor, bu off you fly into the realms of romance

both drowned at sea, and he has never been the same man since"
 But now, to Franks chagrin, the com vcrsation was interrupted by other members of the party.
 Green and Carson, who were old friends of Henderson, were clamorous that he should sing thes=- something be- fore the meeting dispersed.
 "Comc now, Mark, no excuses. We don't often get such a chance, and we've not the slightest intention of missing it."
 "Well, boys" was the cheery answer, Eff you will promise to do justice to the slave. So here goes. I stole the best half of it from Sever. but the felony won't spoil it's flavor"
 Then, in a rich baritone he trolled: "T The piclSets are fast retreating, boys
 The last tattoo is beating, boys,
 So let every man
 Fill up his can
 And drink to our next merry meeting, boys. Tho colonel so gayly prancing, boys, Has wonderful trick of advancing, boys; When he sings out so large: Fix bayonets and charger He sets all the Johnnies a-dancing, boys. Our SweetheartS 0t nome are S1gh1nR boys, For lads on the tcnted-field lying, boys; But we're hearty as yet. And don't mean to fret, Or talk about death. till we're dying boys. l " But 'tis time for q farewellgreeting. boys, For the wing-footed hours are leeting, boys, So let every man Fill up his can, And drink to our next merry meeting, boys"
 Once fairly started, the gallant caval- ryman proved himself prince of good company, song and story tripping from ! his lips without apparent effort. It was 1 only when the party was breaking ur that Frank managed to get a word or ! two with him.
 ''Sha1 see you in the morning, Cap tain Henderson," he asked, anxiously.
 Not likely, my boy; for start or the first train, and you'll be hoofing7it il ] probably before I'm out of bed"
 "Yes, that is so. Well, be sure anG call on mother, if you go to Meltonbure and, I say; if you tell her any thing of our way of living down here, dont draw your pictures with too many shadows in them"
 "I understand, and will be careful But how about the fair Grace? Shall tell her that you send her a kiss, but don't want the precious article deliv cred till you're at home?"
 Frank laughed.
 Goodbye, old fellow," he said. 'l wish with all my heart and soul I wa going with you"
 And there was something like tear in the lads eyes as he grasped Iii friends hand and turned gloomily av a, to his quarters.

 SPRINGFIELD, H., March 12.-True to their announcement Dr. Moore and MT. Cockrell, Alliance members of the House, voted for General Palmer for United States Senator, and thus secured his cleo tion and broke the deadlock on the 154th ballot.
 These two members issued an address in which they stated that being unable to .elect A. J. Streeter, their candidate for Senator, they had decided to cast their votes for John M. Palmer, the Democratic candidate.
 When the roll call was begun the Re- publicans did not answer to their names, but later acknowledged their presence and voted for Lindley. l-Paimer received 10S votes, Eindley TOO, | Streeter 1. Taubenbeck voted for Streetor. Palmer was then declared duly elected. The most exciting scenes ever witnessed on Representative floor followed. When Taubenbeck voted for StreeteI he dropped back in his chair and cried | freely.
 Fire bells and church bells all over the city were rung as soon as Palmer's cleo tion was made known, and on the public buildings and private houses flags were hoisted and bunting hung out.

SACRAMENTO. Jan. 23-Joseph Morrow,
an account Of whose mysterious shooting at
Elk Grove was published yesterday, has
been taken to the County Hospital. He has
four wounds, none Of which are fatal. The
shooting was done with a pistol of small
caliber. One of the bullets passed through
one of MorrOw's hands, another is buried in
his shoulder, third struck the back of his
head, but did rot penetrate the skull, and
was extracted from the back of one of his
ears, and the fourth hit him on the forehead
and glanced off. Had the weapon been
larger Morrow would have been killed.
About ten years ago Morrow killed man
at Chico named Daubenspeck. He was SEN
fenced to eighteen years in the State Prison.
Then his sentence was committed to FIVE
years, and about year ago, through the iu-
fiuence of Senator Jones, it is said, he was
pardOned out. Morrow says he is certain
that his GsSailant was a brother of the man
he killed. lie says he resembled Dauben-
speck, and besides he was informed that the
brother OF the dead nlau WAS on his track.
The man who DID the shooting has so far
eluded capture. though the constables have
secured the country in the vicinity of Elk
