ago. She is very agreeable woman,

assure you"
The last remark caused Mr.. Under
hill to smile sarcastically; but Miss
Wilberforce noticed that his face be-
trayed great relief and that he no longer
regarded Mr.. Maitland with hostility.
The three chatted pleasantly for a
few moments, and then Mr. Maitland
started to return 10 Mrs Underhill. who
had been watching the party with feel
ings that it would be hard to describe.
Miss Wilberforce waited until her
friend had retired few feet, and then,
as if she had forgotten something she
wanted to say, ran after him and at
tracted his attention by touching his
elbow.
''I am 81 glad you are not in love
with married woman" she said with
a mischievous smile which caused the
young man to blush with pleasure.
Miss Wilberforce made some hurried
explanations, and gave her companion
some directions which he promised to
obey.
In few moments the boat reached
the wharf at Staten Island = I of
the people hastened ashore. Is. Miss
Wilberforce managed to detain Mr..
Underhill, and Mr.. Maitland also de-
layed the departure of his cousin. Con-
sequently the four suddenly found
themselves together, with no witnesses
near them.
Miss Wilberforce gracefully stepped
forward, and, taking the hands of the
Rstonished husband and wife, said:
Now, please let bygones be by
cones and be happy once more" >.
Mrs. Underhill's eyes filed with
tears. Her husbands will was bent,
and the two, long estranged and long
unhappy, clasped each others hands
and kissed one another with deeper
feeling of love than they had ever be-
fore known.
The result was that Mr.. Underhill
accompanied his wife and Mr. lfait-
land accompanied the charming Miss
Wuberforce to see the Fall of Baby
lon" Four happier people never en-
joyed that gorgeous spectacle; for while
the beautiful wedding procession, one
of the most interesting features of the
entertainment, was moving before their
eyes, Mr. Maitland proposed to Miss
Wnberforce and was accepted. A.

JUST GONE AWAY.

Only God can fathom this
That from out my life IS gone
All the sweetness that miss

Like the welcome from kiss.
All her sweetness as wife,
All her gracious woman's charm,
Never rising into strife.
Never dropping into harm
In the crowding aims OF life
All. my feet know well the way.

To that barren mound OF clay
Where she sleeps. hid from my sight
Like O white rose laid away.

On the floors. while in the dark

But the rain drips-that IS all
Not whisper-not sign
But the light sweep OF her hair
AS her cheek drops down TO mine
And her gown hangs on chair
And hear laughter fine.
When I wake from h.ggard sleep
And she is no longer here
While / stretch q hand and keep
Silence, with listening fear
While the shadows seem TO creep.
While no living thing I see
Nor a shadow-anything-
But q presence seems to be
Near me like pulsing wing.

POSTSCRIPT
A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Floors at the Shoreham Have
Fallen.
NARROW ESCAPE OF THE WORKMEN.
A Scene Of Great Confusion, But For
tunately No One Injured.

An accident which might have resulted in
the death or manning of many individuals took
place at the Shoreham Hotel this afternoon
shortly after 2:3O o'clock.
Workmen were engaged in lacking up mis-
placed girder, which was supposed to be useful
as support for portion of the hallway on
the sixth floor
The jack rested on the stair hallway on the
fifth floor, and as that was simply mass of
light timber, heavy concrete and orna-
mental tiles, the floor resistance was
insufficient, and the jack, supports and
everything else but the workmen fell on the
floor below and the sudden impact caused that
to give way also.
LANDED IN THE BASEMENT.
This WIS repeated until the mass Of timber
and plaster landed in the basement and blocked
up the interior entrance to the cafe. The escape
OF the workmen and of those who ordinarily
use the hotel stairways was hardly short of
miraculous.
Among those who witnessed the affair there
was an organized tendency either to say moth
ing or to make as light as possible Of the oc-
currence.
Manager keenan,, looking dolefully at the
tons of debris, and then up through the ragged
shortcut to the roof, said it was but little
matter which would soon be righted
The accident was, however, deemed of sufi-
cient importance to demand the stationing of
bell boys and others at the hotel entrances with
instructions to prevent or retard the entrance
Of any persons who were not on the register or
the pay roll.
HISTORY OF THE BUILDING.
The building was completed about two
years ago and opened to the public
1t was built from plans prepared
by q firm of New York architects and
what is known as the slow-burning con-
struction was adopted. Under this sys-
tenn the joists we're covered with a
preparation of non-combustible material. Re-
Gently an addition was made to the building on
II street which extended to the full height Of
the original building.
The property is owned by Mr.. Levi P Nor
ton the Vice President, and has been q fash
ionsble hotel since it was opened.
