dishes she guessed that there must be a
mistake.
But when she opened the door and saw
Cyril she knew for whom the visitors had
called.
"The major. sir, Lor', sir, the majors
nearly dyin. He's in bed, sir. 1 think
they'll be takin him to hospital. He was
lyin all of a heap on the floor this morning,
an Mrs. Gales-that's the landlady, sir-
says as how he hadn't nothin to eat in a
week or more"
"You had better let me go up alone,n
said Cyril, but Louise ran up after him,
and Mrs. Hartley pulled and painted still
farther in the rear.
When Cyril entered the room the major
was lying pale and faint looking in his
bed. His gray face looked awfully haggard
on the white pillow; his eyes were sunken
in his head,
You're a brick, Sid, my boy; but what
are you here for2" he gasped. Who's that
with your The little one, chr God bless
heri Stand back and let me look at her,
boyi
"Ah, my God-God bless you, sidl God
bless youW
He sank back exhausted with his hand

a pair Of soft arms clasped Cyril's neck.
Don't let m come up, Sidl It's
him, it's him! Don't let ann come pf"
The girl knelt down by the major and
kissed him.
'Fatherl" she called to him, don't you
know your baby Lou"
Well, it was a bit late to stop the two
older ladies. Even as Cyril stopped down
over his Enoa1inry cuuoatbaor% AT,c uon4Iav
pulled in through the door, and Helen
Wingfeld was with her.
Later that evening the major sat propped
up in a pillowed chair in the Hartleys'
drawing room and q pale faced woman
stood over him.
Somehow nobody spoke, and there was
something glistening In the wrinkled cor
ners of the sick mans eyes.
Nervously pretending to forget the lost
past he glanced at his battered shoes.
"They leaked, Sid, my boy; they leaked
You know they did"
The pale faced woman bent nearer him.
THAT'S all over now, dear" she whispered.
Forget; forget.n
Silently the others stole away from the
room.
Listen to the chimes, Lou" said Cyril
as they stood in the gloom of the outer
lobby. The vesper bells of Christmas were
ringing through the town, but Louise
Wingfeld never heard them. With her
arms around his neck she was sobbing like
achild on his bosom. Whetheri 1t was from
love or gladness one really cannot tell; but
the Christmas chimes were ringing out
side, and the two were standing there to-
gether. Chicago Evening Post.

HIS RECORD IS CHAR.
General Stephenson RefuteS the Charges
That He Was
A MEMBER OF THE GOLDEN CIRCLE
And Was Opposed to the War for the Preservation
Of the Union-The Same Charges Have Been
Made Before and DemOhshad--ProofS Of
His Loyalty in Thought and Deed.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL, June 25.-Adlai
E. Stevenson, when interrOgated to-day
in regard TO an interview with EX-Gov-
ernor John NJ. Hamilton, IN which the
latter charges that Mr.. Stevenson was
a member of the Knights Of the Golden
Circle, an organization which upheld
secession, said:
Every charge in that accusation is
wholly and unQualidedly false. do
not know now and never knew
what the organization known
as the knights of the Golden
Circle was never in my life belonged
to any secret society, excepting the Phi
Delta Theta, college fraternity, and
the Masonic organization. While | was
not in the army, favored every method
for the suppression of the rebellion by
force OF arms, and gave evey action
toward that end my sympathy and sup
port.
On the 4th day Of July, 1861, de-
livered an eulogy on the life Of Stephen
A. Douglass and agreed with him as to
his position in regard to the war In
that speech l spoke trmly and un-
waveringIy in support of the Union and
for the suppression of the rebellion.
When Col. Sdwell, Of Woodford county,
set out to raise a regiment OF Union
soldiers l accompanied him on his
mission, made speeches and every way
aided him in the work"
Here Mr.. Stevenson picked up a
scrap book and showed to the reporter
a long letter from Col. Sidwell in which
the latter expressed his thanks for Mr..
StevenSon's interest in the matter.
"The attitude toward the Rebellion l
stead fastly maintain all through the
war" Continued Mr.. Stevenson. And
years ago when l first ran for Congress
in this district, and when all matters
with war for the Union were fresh in
the minds and memories Of the people
the same charge as to the Golden
Circle was brought up against me, and
was demolished. Thousands OF my
neighoorS knew as they Low know that
that there was not word OF truth in 1t.
In 1874 was elected to Congress by a
large majority in this district
which Just before had given
5000 Republican majority, and
defeated General McNulty, a gallant
Union soldier. II is not likely that this
could have been accomplished by man
whose loyalty was doubted. And, mind
you, l was elected to represent the peo-
pie Of district who had once been rep
resented in Congress by Abraham Lin
coin. l desire again to state as strong
ly as it is possible 10 state it that there
is not one word of truth in the charge
that was disloyal to the Union in
thought or deed, or that l ever be-
longed to, or Sympathized with or knew
of the existence of such an organization
as the Knights Of the Golden Circle"

His Mental Distress.
HARRISBURG, PA, June 25.-H, S.
Hayes, the telegraph operator at the
Steeltou tower, practically admitted
before the cOrOner'S jury this afternoon
that he was responsible for the fright
fui wreck on the Pennsylvania road
this morning in which eleven people
lost their lives and thrice as many were
seriously injured.
Hayes, who is young man Of twenty
two, was arrested tonight at the in
stance of Coroner Hoy, on the charge Of
manSlaughter He is now in Jail, and
his mental distress is terrible TO witness.
Fears are expressed that he may lose his
mind. The young man has not been in
the service of the company more than a
few months, and has been an extra
operator, going wherever he was order
ed. When informed OF the wreck and
loss of life be became almost frantic.
He simply assumed that the first sec
ti0n had passed the block without trOu-
bling himself about any notification for
the Dock street tower 10 that effect.
Hays was closely questioned and during
his examination was greatly agitated,
frequently breaking down aud weeping
bitterly

scenes that accompanied it will be

killed and the other was removed to
the hospital in dying condition. The
adjoining building was occupied by a

given. The damage to the building
will amount TO S2O,0 900.
Among the injured are Maurice
Smith, engineer, severe injuries on
head: Jacob Tricky, fireman, internal
