Hungate rising continually in her mind.
Though it was early spring, the day was
sweet and warm, chestnuts and hawthorn
were bursting into bloom on the lawn, the
sun was glinting on the placid river, and
the song OF a thrush alone broke the still
ness of the hour.
Suddenly the entrance of servant
aroused her from abstraction, and mechani-
cally she took up the card presented to her
on the salver. When she read the name
she started, and when, after a moments
hesitation, she ordered the visitor to be
shown in, the beating of her heart almost
drowned the sound of her voice. Instinc-
lively she took Captain Hungate's letter
and thrust it into volume that stood on q
little table beside her, then, with an effort
she strove to calm herself so that nothing In
her outward appearance might betray the
agitation which reigned within. She so far
succeeded that when she came forward with
outssretche1 hand to greet the young man
who entered, not even the futter of q
pulse or glow of color told of her emotion.
There stood George Gerard before her, still
boyish in appearance, scarcely year older
than herself, seeming unaltered since last
they met, the same look OF gladness in his
blue eyes, the same sunny smile on his
bright, fair face, framed with o thick crop
of yellow hair, the same look of indecision
on these lips. shaded by a tawny mustache,
the handsomely nodded cheek and slightly
retreating chin devoid of whiskers or beard.
'You are surprised to see me, he said,
when their first greetings were over and he
had sat down beside her, bending toward
her as in the olden time when his love was
yet unconfessed.
'T didn't expect you, +" she answered, gaz-
ing at him as if comparing his appearance
with the image which lay in her heart ali
these months gone by.
"But you are not displeased?" he asked,
snxiously.
'T'm always pleased to see my friends"
she replied, guardedly.
Sand am still amongst the number"

LAURA YELVERT0N'S CHOICE.
BY FITZGERALD MOLLOY.

Captain Hungate; but it may have been the
mental and moral weakness of Gerard's
character that first attracted her-that
eventually made her desirous to guide his
ways and protect him from himself-that
had finally won her love- For, after all.
love neither comes nor goes at our bidding
or desire, but waudeTs to and fro I'M and
down the world, at his own sweet will.
finding refuge and rest in the strangest and
most unlikely places.
More than II months ago George Gerard
asked her to become his wife, and She would
have accepted him had not her father. whose
will was to her as law, forbidden her to wed
a worthless idler and confirmed gambler.
She implicitly obeyed the only parent she
had ever known, the iather she loved and
revered. and broke of sll connection with
George Gerard, whom she had never since
seen. Looking back on this brief wear. IL
seemed to her as 1t her life had undergone a
complete change. No word of complaint
passed her lips; no look of reproach flashed
in her eyes at being obliged to relinquish
the man she loved; but void had ere lot into
her heart, sense of loneliness fell on her
days, existence lost the favor of its old
sweetness
Since then her father had died, leaving
her, his only child, the sole mistress of his
fortune-leaving her, likewise, quite alone
in life, save tor an elderly cousin who now
acted as her companion, and who was as
much out of sympathy with her young rela-
tive, as far removed from the current of
her thoughts and feelings, as if they lived
IN separate worlds
The afternoon wore on as Laura Yel-
verton sat and thought of these things-the
answer she must presently write Captain

''You are" she said, softly. in a voice

which made me come here to learn for my
self from your lips If it was true" He
could say no more, for his throat and tongue
were parched by the excitement which con-
sumed him.
'What is the rumor?" she asked, gazing
out on the lawn that her eyes might not
meet his.

Tell me, tell me, is it true?"

she said, slowly and decisively.
'Then," he cried out, in tone of relief
and gladness, "then there is hope for me

pain with excitement I went straight from
your presence to gambling hell"
She spoke no word, but her eyes were full
of sorrow and reproach.
"Don't look at me like that, or can't go
on" he said. 81 spent days and nights in
this hell, winning and losing, exhilarated
and depressed, forgetful of things, until it

and broad band OF the same color en-

mourning for a near and dear friend Henry
is as chlpper as ever, but looks more like
young clergyman of the Episcopal Church
than broker of the first water. Stayner
would easily be mistaken by stranger for
a Presbyterian deacon. His face is smooth
shaven and his features are cold and class
ical. His appearance chills observers as if
an icicIe were placed down their backs.
The pair are plaintiffs in a suit brought
against the Gallery estate to compel the
heirs to pay a sum of money growing out of
transaction with Mr. Gallery when he was
President of the PIttsburg and Western
road. The suit was to have been heard YES
terday. 1t was the first on the docket for
the day. Ives train was late and he did
not reach the city until $780, His lawyers
are Lyon, Mchee u Sanderson. MI. San
derson said, owing to the absence of his
client, the suit had been postponed for an
other term. Young Henry held a confer
ence with his attorneys at the Duquesne
Yesterday afternoon.
1t was reported on Sunday that Ives
backed by the President of Detroit car
company, and several other capitalists had
bought the stock of the Ohio Southern road
for 80 cents on the dollar and then sold it at
good figure, making $4,000, 900 out of the
deal. When asked if the report was true,
he smiled blandly and said: "Why, it is
absurd. If we had bought the stock at 80
cents and sold it at the figure given, We
could have made only $500, 900. No man
could make 50, 600, 900 out of that road 1
heard the story yesterday, and it amused
me. We did not buy the Ohio Southern
road. The report is incorrect"

Don't talk of it" she replied, inter-
rupting him.
"No, dearest; I will talk only of my
love for you. Tell me you have not for
gotten me-that some of the old affection
remains for me still" He pleaded in a
voice that thrilled her, thslight of his eyes
falling on her with the warmth Of sun
rays
You find me unchanged" she replied,
letting her hand rest in his.
"Then dearest be my wife. Don't re-
fuse me again, for I know not what may
happen" he said, finging himself on his
knees by her side. "With you a. my
guide can never go astray You will be
my help, nv strength, my protection, my
happiness"
The old desire to become his guardian, to
shield him from temptation, to be his help
mate and support, returned to her tenfold.
She let one hand rest upon his head, her
fingers hidden amongst his yellow locks,
while her heart beat wildly to the rhythm Of
the words: II love him-I love him-I love
him.

boyish face, will you not say you love me
a little bit; won't you tell me you will be
my wife?"
She would gladly have assured him her
heart was his, but the small still voice Of
conscience, not quite drowned in the tumult
Of her feelings whispered that to
give him her love was to disobey her dead
fathers wishes There was but one method
to silence that voice, and she took it at
once.
Before promise to be your wife," she
said, ''you must pledge me your oath that
you will never again bet or gamble"

and smiled.

New STYLES Of Hair Dressing.

The sweeping changes in the shape of WIN
ter hats and bonnets have brought about q
new style of wearing the hair, termed 'the
bun"-s very descriptive name for the big
round knot of hair which is soon to be the
fashion. 1t is worn low, though not so low
as the Langtry knot, and demands larger
amount OF hair than the majority OF women
possess. Nets are very generally worn both
over the fringe and back hair, but as they
are not unbecoming. The new fringes and
toupees here are mounted on a sort of col
lapsible frame, so that they do not get
crushed or fattened by the weight of hat
or bonnet

BRooADED poplinettes are in :avor for din
ner gowns.
CoNvENTIoNALIzED daisies and brocaded
feathers are designs for new gauze mater
ials.
A PRETTY way of trimming the hem of the
skirt is with broad satin ribbon tied here
anu there in a double bow.
THERE may be and likely will be a return
to draped skirts, and in the matter of
draping the modiste shows her skill and
originality.
PRETTY and inexpensive evening dresses
are made of white and colored net over
silk. The edges of the net are turned in
and very narrow ribbon is threaded through
them.
ONE of the latest creations of the millin-
ers' art is hat OF light blue felt curiously
twisted into box plaits, trimmed with black
satin rosettes, and a couple of black ostrich
feathers in the front, and one arranged to
fall over the hair at the back.
RUSSIAN blouses are improved and made
more realistic by some bright colored cross
stitch worked down the front and cuffs and
collars, also along the waistband. A dark
green, embroidered in shades of terra Gotta
and brightest sage green, or black serge,
with a Greek sort of pattern upon it in
scarlet, blue and gold thread, looks stylish.
GRACE demands that all gowns shall be
one of three lengths. First where the skirt
falls just below the knee and is met by
perfect fitting gaiter OF the same material;
next, that which merely clears the ground:
and last. the well hung train, which is suit

only. Each of these three lengths is adapted
for certain occasions, and neither should be
worn out of place or season.
