tective, dcvoting his time to working
up cases for insurance companies

ChaOter VIII.

From the moment that Mr. Eyre had
shut the police out, he had admitted
no one to his house save Il stout kit
chen wcnch, whom he had himself
fetched from the village, and install
led in the kitchen, forbiddlnS her to
move beyond it or to receive company
therein, on peril of her instant dislniS-
sill. He did the foraging himself, and
would stalk i'll with an armful of loaVeS
and flesh, but the only culinary point
upon which he showed anxiety was
the child'S bread and milk, and this
he would have boiled to 4 nicely,
standing over her so us to confound the
woman who had hitherto only courte-
sled to him, trembling, from afar
No tritle that affected the child's
health or Happiness was beyond his
care or dignity; in the recesses of the
scuIlely the woman often marveled
how MASTER" managed to keep her
so clean and neat, since, by all ac-
counts, he had never troubled himself
about his other children, or probably
seen one of them dressed or undreSSed
in his life.
One room only had been kept sacred
from the detectives and other seekers;
this was the bed room Of the late Mrs.
Eyre. Mr. Eyre went to it some two
or three times daily, but spent the
greater part Of his indoor existence in
the nursery, where, in feeding. wash
in-. dressing, and amusing Madcap's
child, he found himself sufficiently
busy.
He could not endure to call in some
rough village girl to take charge of
her; he had written to town for such Il
person as he wanted. and meantime
he could leave the child alone as often
as he pleased. always happy, always
singing in al things the dawn of that
other bright fondly cherished Madcap,
whose spring and early summer time
had belonged to Mr.. Eyre.
He found his own independence of
thought and power Of endurance curl
ously reproduced in this little child of
hardly three years. and perhaps was
the more drawn to her that, though
outwardly Madcap'S very copy, inward
ly she was himself, with his own strain
OF character, courage. and will.
He blessed Josephine that at least
she had not taught the child fear-how-
negligent or unprincipled the French
woman might have been. she had clear
" not been unkind to her. and she
had kept the child's person and linen
eXqusitely, so that Mr.. Eyre had no
trouble on the score of clothes. and
with clumsy hands kept her as fresh
and clean as new pin.
When. on the night after his return
she kneeled up close to his breast and
said her evening prayers. he hardened
to her like one in dream: how lone
ago was it he had heard such words p
In the kingdom of Thy Grace
Give Thy Lamb a little place!
1t had been something like this that
Dody was saying one morning when
he surprised the young mother and hel
boys together. and he had harshly sent
them away from her.
o! Heavens, how cruel he had been

and then by solitary confin amant. But
as he turned the key on her. he felt
as though it were his own itlolized wife
that he was treating thus harshly. and
anxiously listened for the first sound
from within.
For a full minute there was silence:
then tOddling steps approached the
door, and a young, sternly rebuking
voice of a child said through the key
hole.
'Dadi are you good now?'
before the inexhaustible dignity OF
childhood the mans sank, leaving only
the better part, so that he was often
Engaged in Offices for her that he would
formerly have despised.

PARTIES ARE MIXED.
Factions in Germany Getting in a
Hopeless Middle.

Berlin, May 26.-The far-reaching eff
fects of the centrist rupture, which,
with a similar split in the freisinnige
party, will lead to a complete change
in the constitution of parties, will not
be fully seen until after the elections.
Schorlemer-Alst exercised considerable
authority both inside and outside the
party, and although he led the conser-
vative section while Herr Windthorst
headed the democratic element, yet he
was regarded as the only possible sue
cessor to Windthorst III the leadership
of the party.
The government has now the salts
faction of seeing its strongest oppon-
ents hopelessly divided, for no doubt
exists that Schorlemer-Alsts action
will find imitators in other provinces
besides Westphalia and greatly encour-
aged those centrists who only opposed
the army bill from reasons of party dis
cipline.
The seeding aristocrats among the
centrists will almost vote for the bill.
or at least for the Huene compromise.
The split may possibly lead to an
active alliance between the conserva-
tive centrists and the agrarian conser-
natives. The latest development has
therefore improved the prospects of the
government and the suspicion has arisen
that the split and the secession are the
outcome of the recent interview be
tween the pope and the kasier and the
seceders have been in som way squared.

WILL BE OPEN SUNDAY.
Fair Gates Will Surely Be Aiar To
morrow.

Chicago, May 26.-The worlds fair
will be open next Sunday anyhow.
At least that is what Commissioner
Huntley, of the judiciary committee
of the national commission, said today,
and as he is one Of the three members
of the committee who violently opposed
Sunday opening his admission has
double force.
Commissioner Hundley made the
statement at noon, after comforting
AIilchrist concerning the injunction
which the government will pray for to
restrain the directors from opening the
exposition gates on the seventh. day.
After considering the matter we have
decided that the bill for an injunction
cannot be filed in time to close the fair
next Sunday said Mr.. Hundley. 1T
is such an extensive affair that no law
yer on earth could prepare the petition
within twenty -four hours. Therefore,
as the bill cannot be filed tomorrow,
we shall wait until next week.
Yes, that means that the gates will
be open day after tomorrow. 1t will
do no harm just for one day. The gov
eminent has no money at stake. And
after all, when the bill is ready, ! very
much doubt if court can be found
having the proper jurisdiction in the
matter. 1t will be an extraordinarily
delicate thing to decide. There are so
many interests involved-the rights of
the state, the park commissioners, the
national government and the local di-
rectory-why, it is one of the most
complicated questions one could mag
inc. The police regulations and legis-
lature's right of power in the matter
serve to complicate matters still more"

to her! He knew now what it must
have cost her 10 unwind Dody's arms
from about her neck, how his stifed
sobs must have wrung her heart as
the little brothers went heavily away. :.
She had said to him once that he knew
not the kingdom of love he missed
in his children. Ay, but those were
boys, and this was Madcap, and the
only true love, the universal love, was
as far from Mr.. Eyre's heart now as
ever.
The old jealousy of his character,
too was strong in him yet; he had

Eyre had viewed his silent, stubborn
son.
Tonight, when she had fallen asleep
in her little cot, Mr.. Eyre sat for
awhile watching her as poor man
who hugs himself in the joy of Il mir
aculously found treasure; then taking
a light, went to his Wife's room, and,
as usual, sat down, bent on unriddling
the puzzle that room contained.
Sooner or later, he was convinced
that his mind would recover the lost
clew that so eternally baff1ed him.
Some day he would remember some
thing that had happened in this room
on the night of the murder, and that
he had forgotten; the knowledge
in his brain-perchance in some diseas
ed cell Of it, but it was there-and he
knew it.
Next day he got Il message from the
sea. A Wrctched stowaWay in an out

by Il London firm Of seedsmen, he
was at once identified, and the ship
put back to leave the body at the sea-
port village whence the captain had
brought him. The reward
set on his head by Mr.. Eyre made the
mans body Il valuable one, and a mes
sengcr to the Red Hall (only Il dozen
miles distanD soon brought its master

But none held with Mr.. Eyre's be

for on all sides and by her husbands
friends and foes alike he was accepted

with the curious sense of it's worthless
ness and our shame. And as a man
who thrusts a cup of healing from his
lips, crying out that he loathes though
he has never tasted it, SO until now
Mr.. Eyre had disliked children-hose
crystal shapes that, so long as we do
not try to cats them to our own mold,
keep their divine freshness. ... His
books became stale to him beside this
over which he gathered fresh draughts
cf strength and happiness as he read.
To hear her sing, in that little, pUte,
thin sweet voice, unlike anything else
in the world (and that is to sound what
the freshness of dawn is to morning)
gave him a queer thrill of joy; while
her prayers, said at his knee, brought
TO his eyes that intolerable smart which
is strong mans way of weeping.
You are not bad man." she cried,
one night, in a burst of passionate
tears, when some hasty expressions
of anguish escaped him: and in this,
perhaps, lay her strength, that she trust
ed and was absolutely fearless of him,
as her mother had been; so that she
reinstated him in his self-esteem, and,
secure in the worship of the only thing
he loved, Mr.. Eyre faced his world de-
family, as of old. not caring one rush
for its evil or good opinion.
Children grow toward you, men and
women away from you; and every
day Mr.. Eyre felt more secure of his
, treasure, tested jealousy the docihty,

/ own strength. Harshness was not
needed here, and on one occasion only
