The dull hour OF the day at indian
Beach was that which followed luncheon.
During this hour, on the day following
the Craig dinner party, Miss Eliot and
Miss Armadale, sitting behind the seal
loped awnings of the piazza, saw Glare
Craig In her short red skirt and broad
brimmed hat, in which she suggested a
gypsy at masquerade, picking her way
along the beach over which the rising
tide from moment to moment spread
higher and higher.
"Clare can't walk from her house to
ours without trying to get little ex-
citement out Of it." remarked Miss
Eliot, whose knees were covered by
some huge undertaking in Bolton cloth
and Kensington stitch.
sit is a queer time to come. The tide
will DO up in half an hour, and she will
have TO return by the road remarked
Mrs. Eliot, who sat just within the hall.
Miss Armadnle said nothing. She was
wondering that Glare came alone.
Clare wsa waving her hand in triumph
at hor own agility as she scrambled by
aid Of the bayberry bushes over the sand
dune and out of the way Of an uncom-
monty strong, swift wave.

Of the broad piazza, land so l thought
I'd come and tell you the news"
"ls there any news at Indian Beach?'
Queried Miss Armadale. She sat in a
low hung chair, her small bronze Slip
pers protruding from under her white
gown.
There wouldn't be but for YOU" re-
piled Glare sharply,

news, prayY"
"You can judge. Alan and Mr.. For

breakfast separately. And then John

Alan didn't like his waltzing with you
last night, and Forsyth wouldn't stay in
the house,

sions," said Miss Armadale languidly,
but Glare saw the cool glitter flash in
her sleepy eyes at tho thought of new
excitement
you'd better follow my example and
jump at some conclusion as to which OF
your beaux you'll marry, retorted Glare.
My choice seems to interest you,
said Hope Armadale maliciously. She
knew Of poor Clare's devotion TO Alan,
who had never thought of her other than
as a little sister.
The crimson blood tingled in Clare'a
dark cheeks.

Forsyth got up haughtily.

Alan sprang to his feet also. Then
his expression changed. He was an even

Forsyths face was stern and unsym-
pathetic.

truth, there are some sentiments which

The two We're standing. The cold
moonlight streamed through the stained

Their faces looked fierce and ghostly in
the wan light.

A CLEAN of triumph crossed Craigs

This condition is the result OF the trend OF
the present system Of entertaining. The

as separately almost So the Qaakers ssat

and gradually this has changed. Teas,

A LOST ISSUE.

Some months ago Democratic journals
insisted that the Billion-dollar Congress
should be the leading Issue in the cam
paign. They argued with considerable
FEASIBILITY that the Republicans had the
popular side Of the tariff question and that
Democrats were much divided among them
selves on the silver question. As il would
not look well TO come out openly and say
that the spells was the only thing they were
conteDding for, they brought forward the
BillioG-dollar Congress issue. But some
how the people did not enthuse en- this
question. The Democrats could not show
that the money had been stolen or wasted
The pension appropriation, which no one
dared to touch, called for more than one
fourth Of the whole New ships had been
built which were a credit to the country.
The work Of coast and harbor defense had
been begun. The postal subsidy act was
building up our commercial navy. The
liberal appropriations Of Congress went
into the channels Of trade. We were simply
doing things that needed to be done and
that we could well afford to do. But the
Bnion-dollar Congress did not entirely dis
appear from view until II was ascertained
that this present Congress at its first seS-
sion had exceeded the appropriations of the
BilliUn-do lar Congress at its first session.

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

a London dispatch says that Mr. Bar
bour of the Indian Council and Mr.. c. w.
Freemantle. chief of the Mint Department,
will probably be the British delegates to
the international monetary conference.
Mr.. Barbour is a bimetallist. His expe-
rience in the Indian Council leads him to
take a different view Of the silver question
from that Of most London fnanciers. Mr..
Barbour is on record as saying that if an
international agreement is not arrived at
the United States Government will sooner
or later, be driven to adopt the silver
standard. He adds that the cessation OF
the United States to purchase silver would
tend to further depTess the price OF that
metal. Mr.. Barbour does not seem TO share
the views of American free-coinage advo.
Gates, who hold that the free coinage Of Sill
yer in the United States would at once
raise the price of that metal to parity with
gold on the existing ratio. The purchase
Of silver doubtless tends to keep the price
up, but the coinage would be simply a
change Of silver bullion into coin The sill
yer coin might not be worth more in coin
than it was ia bullion. The nation coming
silver free would thus establish the silver
standard and the difference between the
commercial value of silver and gold would
be expressed by premium on gold.
