WdS uOt TIC hSts Alan ulmSeu VINO was
going mad. The heat and agitation brought
on by the pace at which his aunt had
marched him from Cadogan place, the ex-
traordinary manner of his reception at
Pomona villa. the still more extraordinary
things which had happened to him since
he had got inside; ali these, put together,
were quite enough to make him uncertain
as to whether he were standing on his
head or his heels. And then, for him, q
staunch believer in the theory, and the
practice of the celibate priest, to have such
language addressed to him after five min
utes' acquaintance by total stranger, and
such pianist, and fine young woman.
No wonder the Rev. Alan put his hand up
to his head under the impression that that
portion of his frame was leaving him.
IF you do not marry me-" continued
this extraordinary. young woman. in tones
which narrowed his heart, and vet which
were not so narrowing as her music by q

head. He looked round him with bewild-
cred, short-sighted eyes. Curiously
enough his aunt still had her face in the
opposite direction.
"I-I'm sure" he stammered.
sOf what?"

Happy"
GENTLY good reason that the pianist rose
from her seat and flung her arms about
the curate's neck. He said something,
but what it was was lost in the ample ex.
panses of Miss Vesey's breast.
Madam" she cried, addressing Miss
Macleod, "your nephew has promised to
marry me! He has said that he will be
happy"
Miss Macleod, who did not happen Just
then to be looking in the opposite direc-
ton, smiled grimly. Owing to the pecu-
liarity of her physical contiguration. every
thing about her was grim-even her smile.

from the lady's powerful embrace. His
distress was tragic in its intensity.
''This-this is some extraordinary"
"Happinessp' cried the lady, and again
she clasped him in her arms. "Your hap
piness is mine! 1t has been my lifelong
dream to be married to a clergyman. Is
not my father one already?"
At that moment the father referred to
entered the room.
What's this?" he cried, as a father nat
urally would cry on seeing his daughter
with a stranger in her arms.
The young lady, however, promptly re.
heved his mind.
Father, let me present you to my future
I'll do protest." screamed the frenzied
curate.
"You do protest. sir! What do you pro-
test?" The fathers voice was terrible, so
was his manner. Apparently all his pater-
nal instincts had been destroyed by dipso-
mania. you come to this house, sir, q
perfect stranger, sir; you assault my
daughter, sir; you take her in your arms"
This was, perhaps, strictly speaking, a
perversion of the truth; but at that mo-
ment Miss Macleod offered her interposi-
ton.

During all of his, (Cleveland's) 81

have increased the value of money

Cleveland for standing up for
''honest money'-that is, opposing

The big convention scheme is

press and politicians of the State.
Opinions are in order and here are
the UNIONS: We are opposed to
the idea of one delegate for every
100 Republican votes cast at the
presidential election Of 1888, it
simply means a boom for the ST..
Paul and Minneapolis hotels, and
move as a substitute that each or
ganlzed county be allowed three
delegates and one additional dele
gate for every 400 votes or major
fraction thereof, based on the aver
age vote for State officers in 1890.
