One Way discovered by Railway Officials to
Evade the Strict Law.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3O.-Acting Secre-
tary Spaulding to-day addressed to E. Fl.
wohey, the Deputy Collector of Customs
at Montreal, Canada, letter of which the
following are extracts:
An officer of this department. who has
been investigating alleged violations of the
Chinese exclusion act on the Northern
frontier informs the department that since
the 1st of May last about 200 Chinese have
taken trains at Toronto for points on the
Michigan frontier, and that of this number
not less than two-thirds have travelled on
the Canadian Pacific. The officer states:
"W hile at Windsor made inquiry of a per-
sonal friend of mine, who Is in the employ
as to the number of Chinese that has been
landed there by the company. Said he: Il
meet all trains arriving from Toronto over
our road, and have not seen to exceed six
Chinese this summer On being informed
by me that great number had travelled
from Toronto to Windsor over his road. he
said well, If that is a fact they must man.
age to get off the train before it reaches
this station.
Thinking that quite likely such was the
case, secured a horse and carriage, and
accompanied by the inspector, droye out out
vile junction. and a was we'll acquainted,
we had no difficulty in getting such in forna-
tion as we asked for. I was in formed that
Chinaman had never been seen to get off the
train at that junction, but said he: fire.
quently hear the night train from Toronto
(Which does not stop here) stop at the race
course There is no station at the track,
and no occasion to stop. The race track re-
ferred to is just two miles out OF Windsor,
and there is but little doubt that the con-
ductors of that night train stop there and
turn their Chinese passengers over to the
white smugglers. thus avoiding their being
seen at the city depot by a customs in

to travel with Rex! welcome to England,
cousin Rex; it is good of you to visit us so
soon;" and Jean, silent and trembling, feels
utterly bewildered, as one in dream.
"Who-who is he?" she gasps, looking at
the gentleman speaking to the groom as to
the luggage But only Mellor hears her,
and he quietly replies, ''That is my cousin
and namesake, Hester's husband-the dear
baby's father.
Certainly the two men must have been
very much alike in earlier life, but Hester's
husband is much ssouter than his cousin,
and the latter, Jean decides, is far more
striking looking. By and by she under
stands it all-that her fancee never was
the Mellor who won Hester's heart, but his
namesske, and often mistaken for him.
Business troubles and his bitter disappoint-
ment "over a love affair."" says Hester,

landed at Liverpool yesterday" she tells
Jean, she is joining the London branch of
the firm to which he belongs, and now ne is
settling in England, mean to try hard to
find him wife.
But the traveller saves Hester the trouble;
discerning that Jean expected to find him
the master of the Manor, he has quietly ar
rived at something like the true solution of
her change of mind concerning him. She is
caressing her little namesake in the draw
ing-room when he goes softly up this even
ing, and stands beside her.
'tJean," he whispers, sit is 10 years since
1 saw you, but your ring is with me still,
and L shall never give it to another; will
YOU tske it back?"
'T-I made mistake about you," she
stammers, ''oh, Rex, Rex, the years have
been very long"
And then jeans namesake finds herself
sucking toffee On the rug and she has half
hour of blissful sickness till Hester ar
riyes with a raptured "Well. 1 neverp'
directed at her cousin and her friend, and
Jean, half smiles, halt tears, wonders what
ever Aunt Grigson and Aunt Hamsworth
will say when they hear of it!
"We'll write and tell them tomorrow"
SAYS Mellor, but tonight, my Jeanie,
come out with me and see the starshine! II
has never been so gloriously bright through
all the years that the sea has divided us!"

Dental epistle written so joyfully that her
friend feels the sacrifice has indeed not
been made in vain. Reginald MelIor has
sought her out. and Mrs. Soames allows him
to visit at the house; he has fully explained
his silence by the fact that he has been
anxiously tending the sick bed of the uncle
with whom he lives. 81 am too happy for
poor mother being in the institute, and he
says she will be his charge for the rest of
her life; oh, Jean, 1 feel how little de-
serve such fullness of joy as overfows my
whole life now."
Jean answers the letter with few kind
words of sympathy, written in the midst OF
her packing for London; she is with Aunt
Hamsworth, and feeling like fish out OF
water amid busy round of entertainments,
when she catches sight of the names "Mel-
lor-Coptord" in a list of marriage an
nouncements.

Ten years have passed away, bring
ing on all sides changes, and yet leaving
our heroine in quiet Heathbourne, treading
moor and Woodland path as of old. SIN
maiden meditation, fancy free!' Never
since Hester's marriage have the friends
CHANGED to meet; many causes have con-
tributed to this end-the Mellors live in
the south of England, long way from
Heathbourne, and Miss Grigson's increased
infrmities make jeans presence frequently
a necessity, but there were times when
Jean could have travelled into Glenshire,
had she been willing. The wound of old is
only Just beginning to heal Hitherto,
while rejoicing in the gladness OF
her friend, she has felt a shrink
ing from the very thought of ever
beholding again the face she has never for
gotten-the face that now belongs to the
husband of her friend. Again and again
Hester has begged her to visit their beauti-
full home to see the little maiden that is
called by her name, and the bonnie boy
who is Rex No. and as often she has
found some reason for postponing the meet
ing But at last Miss Grigson is advised
by her doctor to visit that mild locality DUR
ing the cold weather, and she insists that
Jean shall visit the Manor and select for
her apartments or furnished cottage.
"Now be ar in mind the aspect and the
drainage, Jean," she exclaims, as her
niece, whom the Heathbourne girls look
upon now as "quite an old raid," bids her
farewell ere journeying southwark, ''and,
above all, look out for traces Of damp, and
be sure, nv dear, you notice if there are
any signs Of insects, and say I shall only

of its original habitat and carries devasta-

Where cholera Is Born.
The bathing place of the pilgrims is a
space $50 feet long by 80 wide shut off from
the rest of the Ganges by rails Into this
long, narrow inclosure pilgrims from all
parts of the country crowd together from
early morn to sunset, washing themselves
and their clothes, diving three times or
more and then drinking Of the holy water,
while saying their prayers Even during
the festival numerous cases of cholera are
admitted at the hospitals of Hurdwar, and
when the vast concourse Of pilgrims at last
disperses they carry cholera in every di-
rection over Hindostan. It attacks va
grants and travelling merchants, gets into
Persia and so on into Europe"
The assertion that cholera can be commu-
nicated only by means of contaminated
water and food seems to be disproved by the
ineficacy of quarantine regulations and of
the precautions by which the natives of
Western Asia try at least to retard the
progress OF the epidemic On the appear
ance of the disease in any coast hamlet
hundreds of families embark on RATS and
DRIFT along the shore until they find a
spring offering chance for refuge camp;
in the hills fugitives crowd about the sum-
nit ridges and keep up fires with pungent
weeds to fumigate their clothes and every
morsel of food. On the upper Indus the

same time serve the purpose of signal fres

But i'll spite of such precautions the epi-
demic spreads, Enthusiastically transmitted
by the atmosphere, since in more than one
case it has been known to cross rivers after
the removal of every ferry and after the
shore dwellers had ceased to use the water
for domestic purposes As the grip is moth
ing but specially malignant catarrh, Ash
attic cholera is only more than usually
violent attack of cholera morbus, and there
is reason to believe the deadliness of the
disorder is increased by the abundance of
the fuel it feeds on.
That circumstance may also partly ac-
count for the recent murderous riots in
Asiatic Russia Tie report that a number
of skillful European physicians had
reached the city of Tashkend attracted
large crowds of patients, sufferers from
fevers aud skin diseases as well as from
cholera-like affections The rapid spread
of the latter disorder soon turned every
hospital into cholera laxaretto,
but, to the dismay of the natives
the rate of mortality proved enor-
mously greater than in the surround

are wronging the young man in so lighot

present day do not know their own minds;
things were very different when I was
young. Now I suppose you will be craving
for peep at society, as your aunt advises,
and you will take up with some empty
headed young top, only fit to be tailor's
model certainly believe you were fond
OF young Mellor-you would not hear q
word against him this morning"
This morning !! How far away it seems
to the girlish heart as Jean answers in a low
voice, 'they say second thoughts are best,
you know, auntie; did not write to him
without reason. Please let us never talk
of him again; should like to go away from
here for few weeks, but 1 shall come back
to you, auntie, and stay with you always
never intend to marry"
"Fiddlesticks p is all Miss Grigson's re-
joinder, 'igo to bed and don't talk nom
sense. You have played fast and loose with
young Mellor-take care you don't 60 fur
ther and fare worse"
Jean is silent as she arranges her aunt's
candlestick, smelling bottle, milk and
biscuits on the little table beside her bed;
then she goes down to Hester, who is in q
special chatty humor, and it is a long time
pour, unseen by human eye, those bitter
tears which yet cannot quench within her
loving, pitying heart the fires of. sacrifice
that burn for Hester's sake.
Mellor's answer to Jeans letter is brief
one; doubtless his conscience reproaches
him concerning Hester and he feels that
Jeans ickleness has been well deserved.
81 understand" he says, ''the reason of
your letter and why you returned the ring;

"As beguiled him from Hester, so if he

thinks the girl, looking out at the woods in
their autumn splendor, but seeing nothing
of the glory of bracken and heather that
carpet the moor outsretched before her
window; ''how can be happy, knowing
Hester's heart is breaking? Que of us two
must sufer-let it be me; what is my love
worth for Hester, if 1 can purchase my
happiness by her sorrow?"
1t is long, a stormy heart-struggle that
goes on to-day in the quiet of Jeans
closes her betrothal ring to Rex Mellor with
a few curt lines of farewell. She cannot
trust herself to write to him at length.

she SAYS, (which prompts me TO return you

The hardest part is to tell Miss Grigson,
whose solitary meditations have led her to
the conclusion that Mrs. Hamsworth has
not hing to do with the fortunes of her own
special ward, and that she will not be inter-
1ered with concerning jeans engagement
"She never came near Jean when we
nearly lost her with whooping cough, or
when had to nurse her day and night with
bronchitis" she reflects, land now, she
wants to have a voice in Jeans engagement,
and to separate her from young Mellor, who
really seems to me a very manly and
straightforward lad. If he satisfies me as
to his prospects 1 shall allow the engage
ment to go on-I will not break the child's
heart to crafty Amelia's ambition"
Miss Grigson is therefore taken greatly
by surprise when Jean quietly tells her that
evening that she has returned Reginald
Mellor's ring.

your Aunt Hamsworth, my dear" she re-
marks, ''but young Mellor seemed really
very fond of you. and it may be that yuy

ABSOLUTELY PURE

Grigson calls after her; Jean hears the
words, and faithfully makes memorandum
in her pocketbook, but her thoughts are at
Mossdell Manor "Will this be painful
meeting for Reginald Mellor," her heart Is
asking, or has he forgotten her, seeing she
is so changed from the bright faced girl he
wooed?
81 shall see little of him." she decides.
'I will keep with the children as much as I
can; how sweet of Hester to name her girl
alter mel but wonder he did not object,
for must be to him an uncomfortable mem
ory."
Jean has to cross London, and her cab is
delayed by the breaking down of wagon;
in hurry she procures her ticket at Water
loo, and enters the first railway carriage OF
which the door is open. Directly after, the
guard shuts it with a slam, and, as the
whistle is sounded, she finds with some an
noyance that she is alone with gentleman
who is buried in q newspaper
"No doubt he resents my intrusion" she
thinks. "Well. can clange when the
train stops; he looks an inoffensive old gen.
tIeman, and 1 dare say can 6ud another
carriage at Clapham junction if he is nerv-
Gus OF ladies'.
The train runs through Clapham juno
tion, however, and still her fellow-passen-
ger peruses the leading articles; they are
well OF toward Swindon before he emerges
from the folds of his paper, and then Jean,
rousing from nap, utters bewildered ex-
clamation. The fact dawns upon her that
her companion is not an old gentleman at
all, but man IN the prime of life, whose
brown eyes meet hers quietly as he removes
for an instant his travelling cap.
Excuse me-" he says, politely, 'T did
not recognize you before"
Jean has been preparing herself to meet
Reginald Mellor at the Manor, side by side
with Hestor and the little ones; but to find
him alone with her there, and to know she
has to travel many miles in his company:
She can find no words at frat, but simply
stares at him in silence till she remembers
she must force herself to speak.
"Oh, good morning." she stammers, "what
rainy weather we have had. Hester did not
say you were in London.
"Yes, came last night" he answers.
curtly, looking with interest out OF the
window. Il.
visit to town."
"I know nobody there. he answered, Tin
fact, I know scarcely anyone now."
"aow is Hester?" asks Jean, more COM
posedly. 81 hope dear baby's cold has
quite gone away now."
"who is dear baby? oh! the boy. Has
he had q cold?"
.'Of course. Hester was quite anxious
about him." says Jean Indignantly. A
pretty sort of father he must be to ask
'sWho is dear baby?" and care nothing as
to the indispositicn of his son and heir
"Oh," says Mellor, II dare say be is bet
ter; Hester said she was expecting lady
visitor. Are you going to the Manor?"
Jean replies in the affirmative, wonder
