 He also bought a book on architecture for Dan, a copy of which had been in that gentlemans possession for many years, only that Ned did not happen to know it, nor that tho work was an old one. This last he laid upon tho table for presentation when they should have smoked their pipes out, and discussed his trip in all its business as.ects and Dan should have reported building prog ress. It was a bulky volume and would not readily accommodate itself to mans coat pocket. Last of all he took out an oblong package, wrapped in layers of soft, white paper, which he removed with his supple brown hands and laid carefully aside, disclosing a beautiful blue plush case with dainty clasps and a look about it that was unmiStakable. Anthony touched the spring, and, To! in the prosaic lamplight there was flash and a sparkle as though myriads of fire flies had been caught and pinned to the soft blue satin.
 Anthony turned the case in his hands, catching tho flash of the jewels and ad- miring the play of the light and the sparkle of the prismatic colors. Dia- monds of the purest water thousands of dollars worth of diamonds-a neck lace and pendant, a pin and earrings, | bracelets and ornaments for the hair-a complete set, even to the ring, and val ued at Titfany's, from whence they came, at two hundred thousand dollars. Anthony's western training had in no wise eradicated the instincts of his south ern blood toward reckless extravaganza. l He lifted first one ornament, then an other, and pleased himself with fancy ing how their sparkle would light up the dusky coils of Mary Beverley's hair and intensity the luster of her eyes. His thoughts about his love were practical and material, as was his nature. He had made up his mind to marry Mary, just as he had made up his mind to achieve fortune, and his methods of composing the two ends were precisely similar. Sheer force of will, steadiness of pur- pose, and absolute disregard of aught that might stand in his path had made him Q millionaire; and unconsciously he expected the same forces to make him Mary Beverley's husband. Latterly ar occasional thought of Dan as probable rival had kindled smolder of jealousy but he had stamped it out contemptu ously. What had Dan to offer woman like Mary Beverley in comparison witt what he, Ned Anthony, could show?
 When he had enjoyed the richnes: and beauty of the gems until the pleasure palled on him, Anthony removed tn, ring, which he slipped into his vest pock ct, and closed the case, unfolding it onct more in it's layers of soft paper. Ther, was in the room Q heavy sole lGathe
 trunk with brass clamps and a combi nation lock. This Anthony opened ant deposited the case inside, amid a hstero geneous collection of miners clothing specimens of ore, bowie knife in worn sheath, lariat in a coil, a broker rife, pair of Mexican spurs anAl couple of revolvers. One was an Eng
 fish "bulldog," the other an ordinar. , Colts navy and both had look of us and service. Something in the sight o them seemed to stir old memories-an [ memories of wild and reckless sort, judge from the light that came into hi half shut eyes and the lingering. alInos

only nsrplng ner with such tenderness, such delicacy and skill, that somehow all her troubles seemed to be slipping away and a dawn of joy and peace to be drawing near.
 When at last he rose to go, and lean- ing over her chair held both her hands in his, perhaps her eyes disclosed more than she was aware of, for he stopped and kissed the hands he held and whispered that he would come again that he had something which he wished to tell her

in Harwich, Mass.
 HARwICH, Mass, Aug. 26.-Rev. David Chambers, the pastor of the Methodist Church who was assaulted with large stone and who had been warned in an anonymous note to leave town, says he can see no reason for any personal at tack on him. He has endeavored to bring the two factions of the church together and thought he was succeeding. ''I hope and expect" he said, ''that the law will have in it's grasp the one who assaulted me, but if it fails and know the would-be assassin is abroad, it will not drive me out of town. l am here to do good and l shall remain"

Omaha Bee: Readers of The Bee cannot
have failed to notice that its columns con-
tain almost every day accounts of new in
dustrial enterprises established within the
boundaries Of Nebraska. This steady in
crease in the number Of our mills and fac
tories shows that the home patronage idea
is bearing fruit. Every one of these new
enterprises, even though comparatively
small at the outset, is bound to grow and
keep pace with the demands of it's market.
Every one of them must employ men who,
with their families, will swell the number
of consumers of all commodities, and thus
the reciprocal influence of home patronage
will be made manifest.
1t ia not to be expected that Nebraska
will very soon take rank as a great manu-
facturing state. but it has already been
amply demonstrated that she can produce
many Of the MANUFACTURED articles for
merly purchased elsewhere, and that her
manufacturers can meet those Of other
states upon an equal footing in tho mar
ket. The world must have our grain, but
the notion that WI can produce nothing
else And that the co.. of Nebraska must be
exchanged for the manufactured products
of the east is gradually being abandoned.
The time is rapidly approaching when the
vast product of Nrbraska's fertile acres will
be coined into money to pay for commodi-
ties manufactured upon her own soil. All
signs point to advancement along this line.

THE recent foot race from Paris tc
Beltort has led to much discussion in the
continental papers az to the relative en-
DURANGO q soldiery to-day and in the
past. The Liberte says tho men OF to,
day are not capable Of such pedestrian
feats as the Spanish soldiery Of a gen
GRAFTON or two back. II accounts fol
the deterioration BY the introduction 81
railroads to all parts Of the country. In
Spain, it says, whore the country wae
rough and the supply Of water scant
and only to be found at long intervals,
the mon were compelled to walk over a
great deal Of ground in a day in going
across country. In France, since 1866,
railroad construction has been SO extern
sive that the French soldier goes every
where IN the cars, and long distance
marching is no longer required. The Of
feet on pedestrianism has been marked,
and the Frenohman does not begin to
compare in endurance with his ances-
tors or with the Spaniards.
This is only a partial view Of the sub
Ject. In this country. at least, and we
believe also in Europe, the fondness for
pedestrian exercise has increased in the
last few years. Our college boys walk
all over the country in their summer va
cations, and in nearly our towns we have
pedestrian clubs. Here in Montana we
are growing q rae of mountain climb
ers, hardy, tough in muscle and limb.
Looking at our athletic contests here
and abroad we find all the records have
been broken within two or three years,
both in running and long distance walk
ing. The introduction Of swift-Hying
electric cars in u cities has perhaps
led more people to ride than formerly,
for the sake of economy OF time, but we
do not believe that it is true as a whole
our people can accomplish less in pedes-
trianism than in the days when they
walked from compulsion.

HE is l. RIGHT.

The New York Times permits one OF
it's reporters, in writing of the scenes
around the headquarters of the repub-
lican national committee, to say: "Rus-
sell B. Harrison, the precious child Of
the president, came around the head
quarters, and or the strength of fam
lily relationship insisted on taking a part
in the deliberations of the committee.
Having a voting residence in Montana
and owning a newspaper there, he has
assumed a sort of proprietary interest in
Mr.. Carter ever since the latter first
went to congress, andh has taken such an
active part in managing the political
affairs OF his state that he has at times
been a great nuisance to the men who
have been entitled to control those
matters"
We submit that this sort Of thing is
unfair and unjust to one of the brainiest
and most active young republicans in
the country. If Mr.. Russell Harrison
has assumed proprietorship of Mr.. Car
ter, it is because he has a right to do SO.
They are partners, as it were, in many
confidential side-snaps. Mr.. Russell
Harrison had very much to do with
making Mr.. Carter commissioner of the
general land office; he had everything
to do with making him chairman of the
national committee, and he will have
much more to do with directing Mr..
Carter's canvass. Mr.. Russell Harrison
long ago placed himself at the head of
the republican organization in Montana,
and has maintained his post in spite of
attempts Of powerful rivals 10 dethrone
him. He is a clever, adroit politician, a
rare manipulation of men, and an indie
fatlgable worker. He has completely
downeG Sanders and Power in the mat
ter OF patronage and made Carter do
his bidding. He is master of the situa.
ton in Montana to-day, and the minor
republican leaders know it full well.
The INDEPENDENT has had occasion
from time to time to criticize Mr.. E1ar-
rison, some times severely, and it differs
from him radically in politics, but that
does not prevent it from saying that he
is far from the sort of trifing and fool
ish person many newspapers represent
him to be. He is a man of brains and
ability, and Uses both to accomplish his
ends. He is a factor in our state and
national politics whose potency can not
be dismissed with a sheer. We trust
the New York Times will not let such
paragraphs as the n we have quoted
creep into its columns again. 1t IS not
right to belittle a man who has made
for himself a conspicuous place in tho
party councils.
