Laura Went into the hall, and, in response
to her musical call the splendid creature
came bounding In and began to fawn upon
her, and to lick her dainty hands.
But in an instant he became aware of an
other presence.

With bark of joy The noble brute rushed
at his master, and, putting both paws on
his shoulder, began 10 lick his face as II
crazed with delight.
Then, when he had satisfied Mr. Masters
and his daughter that he had found his
rightful master, he ran fret to one and then
to the other of them, as it eager to show
that they held second place in his canine
heart
"You are certainly right, DIR, Mansfield, "
said the old gentleman "thc dog is yours,
and cannot retain him."
On hearing this, tears filled Laura's beau,
tiful eyes, and she turned away to hide her

While he was wondering If he should go
in and learn who were the occupants of the
house, his eye fell on the name "Bellaire, "
cut in the keystone OF the arched gate.
OF the gentleman whom he had come
over to see DR.. Mansfield made inquiries az
to the people who lived at Bellaire, though
he did not state his purpose In asking.
"Bellaire :" repeated the friend. "Why,
l thought everybody in Westchester County
knew about the palace which the wealthy
Californian, James T. Masters, built here
last year. But forgot that you have been
in college or abroad since his coming"
Has he any children =" asked the doc.
tor, with affected carelessness.
AYES, Miss Laura Masters. She is beauty
and the youngest swells hereabouts and
from New York have been prostrating
themselves at her feet for the last year"
Here the subject dropped, but the doc.
tors interest in Rex was not lessened,
while there was added 10 1t very natural
curiosity 10 know more about the beautiful
girl.
When he got home that night he said to
his mother:

"Where :" she cried.
"OVer at Iryington."
"And why did you not bring him back
The evening world., 1891-06-15

The doctor saw her emotion, and with .
gallant bow hN said:
Pardon me, Miss Masters, but Rex
seems happy here. The fear that the fine
fellow has fallen into unkind hands annoyed
me, but now that know he viii he well
cared for, beg you to accept him with my
compliments"
"To make a long story short" as the
old-fashioned story-tellers have II, Laura
Masetrs, with ther fathers consent, became
the undisputed owner Of Rex.
When the doctor left that evening Mr..
Masters gave him a pressing invitation to
call again, "to see US as well as the dog"
he said, in conclusion.
From that day on Harry Collins never
visited Bellaire, and as soon as it became
known that he had presented to q young
lady a dog stolen by himself, he fed the
country.
The doctor accepted the invitation, but,
though he felt grateful to Rex for having
been the means, we may be sure thai he
was not the attraction.

to Bellaire, Laura Masters became his vita

Then the old gentleman rose and went
hurriedly out, returning in short time
with the young lady, who seemed to the
doctor even more beautiful than when he
had seen her on the street.
Mr. Masters introduced the doctor to his
daughter and Immediately told the object
OF his visit.
"The dog could not have been stolen, "
said the blushing girl, "for Mr.. Harry Col

"Well, he seems very happy where he is, "
laughed the doctor.
And then he went out and told all he had

Duffy And KEENAN, MEET.
War Of Words at Morris Park Be-
tween the EX-BOOdlerS,

All the town is talking to-day OF an occur
renee at Morris Park last saturday that was
not down on the programme.
At the conclusion OF the last race the crowd
began TO pour through the gates in the direc-
tion OF the cars, while those who had private
vehicles went towards them. Among the lat
ter were John keenan,, OF Doodle Aldermen
notoriety, and ex-Alderman Michael Duny,
one OF the members Of the notorious Board Of
1884. 1t was but short distance from the
granc stand and on top or little mound that
the two met face to face.
~ !" Ahl Mixer observed the eX-Bismarck OF
the County Democracy, and he smilingly
+uie.
With look OF scorn the ex-boodler opened
vocal IRE on Keenan,, and poured forth an ap-
palling stream or invectiye.
"You - scoundrel, and liar, do you dare
oner TO shake hands with me7 You are a -
- thief and swindler, and you know you
cheated me out of thousands OF dollars Of my
share OF the Doodle In 1884"
Keenan, was surprised at Duffy's action,
and pallid through either rage or fear, started
towards his carriage. Dui1y was not to be
silenced though, and, rushing after him,
You -, you know you stole the
biggest share OF my Doodle. Now If you don't
return to Sd8 me I'll faks 1t oTt Of you
vile"
Keenan, meanwhile walked to his carriage,
where some members OF his family were wait
ing for him.
SIf 1t wasn't that your Iamily were here !
would thrash you withir an inch OF your life y
said Duf1y. "But WI, catch you some other
time and then Will settle the score with
you. I'll take what YOU owe Inc out Of your
hide"
Keenan, by this time was driving or. After
few more choice epithets Duffy Jumped into
his wagon and, whipping up his horse, drove
furtously after keenan,.

delighted to gather on the lawn before Mrs.
Mansheld's fine mansion to play with him.
Rex was kept about the house, seldom
accompanying his master, and never fol-

community. 1t must not be pleasant to the
British capitalists to find that their own money
is being used to make their investment value
less. They are not prepared for competition,
particularly such competition as that Of the
Armours. They, and one or two other firms,
have had a monopoly of the cattle and meat
trade ofthe west, and the stories that are told
of the devices that they rossrted to, to meet and
kill competition, are really astounding. nan
cheers complain that the business of these firms
is so conducted as to make them no better
than their slaves. There can be no doubt that
the Armours will not be satisfied until they are
again masters of their old field. And to effect
this they will spend the $25, 900, 900 received
from the Englishmen freely. The following
comments on the transaction, by the San Fran
cisco Examiner, are characteristic:
"In the course Of time British capitalists
will probably learn that their American bre-
thren have cut their eye-teeth. There is a large
