that you are going away months before
any of your friends expected 1t. 1t Is

But Mrs Jock did not take the pref

George, my friend, that is not the rea-
son for your melancholy at all. It's
something quite different. Do you
think have forgotten how, when Jock
and l went off to America, you gave us
our last supper party and proposed our
healths in tho funniest speech l ever
listened TO; and how you were one OF
those who saw us safe on board with a
cargo OF rice and old slippers for luck,
so that the whole ships company

with her radiant eyes.

The sudden earneStness of his face

she laughed gaily.

"Of course, but you will try to come

had come down stairs had vanished, he
was himself again-the dearest, most
genial, popular man in all London. She

/ George had taken ideas into his head
that She-but no, it could not be! George

story In her past, knew how Jock with
( his gay laugh, his happy go.lucky air,
/ had hustled into her desolate heart like
! a summer breeze sweeping the last cob
webs of a dead love out of it. OH it
couldn't be that, it was imposSible; and
yet, why had few words, careless
invitation to plain little country
shanty, chased the shadows from his
sad eyes, and transformed him from q
melancholy George whom she did not
know, into his own genial self, with
whom half the women in London were
hopelessly in love?

Mrs. Jock laughed. You're SO oreau-

claimed. "Of course, know that Is just
it. Only it's so silly that Mrs. Tomp,
kins and Mrs. Threp-P'ny-Bit shouid
arranged their little festivities to suit
class of people they never even see'
why don't they honestly let the season
slide?"
"Because Mrs. Tompkins and Mrs.

which is intolerable in London. You've
never been in London in August, my
dear Mrs. Jock; you don't know any

"Perhaps not. BY the bye, did tell

mo! Is he? How nice for you"
"Why for me?" sharply.
"Well, he belongs TO you, doesn I

"Not at all, not at all. He is as much

him immensely. BY the bye, you IKE
George Lumley, don't you, Vere?" anx-

She was so anxious to satisfy her curl
osity about George Lumley's state OF
mind. that she let her anxiety be a lit
tie too plainly seen. Miss Nugents
face and tone, however, were as express
sionless as the most stringent society
etiquette could possibly demand.
"Ohl yes, 1 think he is charming"
she replied in ordinary conventional
then everybody does. Half
the women I know say of George Lum-
lev, 'Oh, he's mine; he's my own espec-
ial pet man. OF course one would MT
dare to say one didn't like him."
"But you do?"
ayes. I think he is charming" Miss
Nugent answered. Mrs. Jock sighed
within herself. 'No, it's not We're. l
lUonder who it is2"
II was evident that there was no In
formation to be got out of Miss Nugent.
That young lady was standing watching
a friendly scuf1ie between a fox-terrier
pup and a fine black cat, who were
tum bling one another over and over on
the velvet-like turf"
''How do you like the place, We're"
Mrs. Jock asked in sharp, half-impa-

"It's lovely" the girl answered.

Near a town in the southern part Of
Georgia lived Mr.. B~ranscombe, a
wealthy fruit grower, who was IN
broiled in a perpetual feud with a poor
trucker named Hopton. The feud was
based on Hopton's hog, which committed
havoc in B-ranscombe's garden, and
B~ranscombe finally shot the animal.
Wa was Mt once declared by Hopton,
not against Branscombe personally, but
against all his belongings. He tore down
fences, wrung the necks of chickens,
smeared -Branscombe's front steps with
paint, and continued this petty persecu.
ton until the fruit grower was exasper.
ated beyond endurance.
He set n watch on Hopton. and finally
caught him in the act Of pouring turpen-
tine into the pump. The next day
Branscombe swore out a warrant for
Hopton's arrest for malicious mischief,
and it was served that afternoon.
Hopton resisted violently, but finally
Gained down, and while on his way Ia

pressed n wish TO see Mr.. Branscombe
and settle the whole affair" The con
stable was an obliging fellow. and &C
coded TO this request.
"Kunnel, said Hopton, when brought
before Brauscombe. LETS compromise
this matter"
VERY we'll" assented Branscombe
readily. During the past six months
you have committed damages to the ex-
tent Of 5000, What is your proposition

The supporters Of the much disputed
theory OF spontaneous combustion have
received fresh grounds of belief from the
case OF Milton HAricastle. Of Baltimore,
whose remains were found nearly CON
sumed in his shanty on the outskirts Of
that city.
Hardcastle was an old negro Of un-
known age, enjoying a small monthly
income left him some years ngo by his
former owner, Colonel Eustace Hard
castle.
1t is said that the negro consumed a
gallon and a half Of whisky a day, and
would often buy and drink the pure
alcohol in large quantities, often for
days at a time partaldng Of no other
nourishmcnt.
he lived alone, being Of a singular,
taciturn disposition, so that it was some
days before he was missed. but his
shAnty WAS observed to remain closed,
and search being instituted he WAS found
in his bed burned nearly 10 a crisp, while
the mattress and clothes were only slight
ly scorched.
The room was in perfect order, and no
trace Of ERE was found on the hearth,
which was swept clean, and as Hard
castle was known TO awe been unique
among negroes in never smoking the
whole affair seemed shrouded in mystery.
DR.. E~verhardt was called upon by the
authorities to make an investigation.
and gave as his opinion that it was a case
OF spontaneous combustion. In this he
has been supported by several other
prominent physicians, who agree in de
clarng the circumstances admit Of no
other eIplRnat6n.-E1change.
