A carriage vas passing at a foot
pace. The Wanderer stopped it, and
helped Unorna to get in. The place
was very near and neither spoke,
though he could feel her hand upon
his arm. He made no attempt to
shake her off. At the gate they both
got out and he rang Il bell that echoed
through vaulted passages far away in
the interior.

ing his hand.
He could see ever in the dark the

of the year, and there was plenty
of available space at the disposal
of those who wished to do so.
Such visits were, indeed, most
commonly made during the lenten
season, and on the day when
Unorna sought refuge among the nuns
it CHANGED hat there was but n
other stranger within the walls. She
was glad to find this the case. Her
peculiar position would have made it
hard for her 10 beW with %equanimity
the quiet observation of a number of
women, most of whom would probably
have been to some extent acquainted
with the story of her life, and some of
whom would certainly have wished out
of curiosity to enter into nearer &C
quaIntance with her while within the
convent, while not intending to pro-
long their intercourse with her any
further. 1t could not be expected,
indeed, that in a city like Prague such
a woman as Unorna could escape no.
tlce, and the fact that little or nothing
was known of her true history had left
q very wide field for the imaginations
o fthose who chose to invent one for her.
The common story, and the one which
on the whole was nearest to the
truth, told that she was the daughter
of a noble of eastern Bohemia, who
had died soon after her birth, the last
of his family, having converted his
ancestral possessions into money for
Unorna's benefit, in order to destroy
all trace of her relationship to him.
The secret must, of course, have been
confided to some one, but il had been
kept faithfully. and Unorna herself
was no wiser than those who amused
themselves with fruitless speculations
regarding her origin. If from the
first, from the moment when, as a young
girl, she left the convent to enter into
possession of her fortune, she had
chosen to assert some right to a foot
ing in the most exclusive a~ristocracy
of the world, it is not impossible that
the protection of the Abhess might
have helped her to obtain it. The
secret of her birth would, however,
have rendered a marriage with a man
of that class all but impossible,
and would have entirely excluded her
from the only other position con-
sidered digniied for a we'll born
woman of fortune, and wholly with
out living relations or connections
that of a lady on the crown
foundation. Moreover, her wild
bringing up, and the singular natural
gifts she possessed and which she
could not resist the impulse to ex-
ercise had in a few months placed
her in a position from which NO
escape was possible so long as she
lived in Prague, and: against those
few-chiefy men-who for her
beauty's sake, OF out of curiosity,
would gladly have made her acquain-
tance she raised an impossible barrier
of pride and r Nor was her
reputation altogether an evil one.
She lived in strange fashion. it is true,
but the very face of her extreme Sc
clusion had kept her name free from
stain. II people spoke of her as the
Witch, it was more from habit and
half in jest. than in earnest. In
strong contradiction to the cruelty
which she could exercise ruthlessly

To End the HighbinderS.

These are the cold days for Frisco
High hbinders, as the police are breaking
up all their meeting places, arresting
them on first sight for vagrancy and
raiding at all hours the brotheIs on
which they levied blackmail. Squads
of police patrol Chinatown, and beat
numerically any chinese who gather
in crowds. The Chinese Consul Gen
eral has made his first real move to
break up the Highbinders. He called
a meeting Of the principal Chinese mer-
chants, and they formed an association
whose object is to resist the demands
of the Highbinders for blacllmail. If
this movement becomes general the
Highbinders' occupations will be gone.
One reason for police activity is the
fear that Eastern tourists or local white
residents may be killed in one Of the
Chinese battles. In such al event a
mob would be sure to raid Chinatown
and lynch many Chinese, as the feel
ing against them is now more bitter
than in the old days Of Kearney's sand
lot crusade.

On the II inst. an attempt was made
in Rome, Italy, to blowsup the Ancient
Mattel Palace, the residence Of Hon.
VIM. Potter, Ane4 lean minister to TIA

Shortly after the explosion occurred

of the building and not an insult to the
American flag.

On a Secret Mission to iiaWaii.

The President las sent eX- -Represen-
tative Blount Of Georgia to Honolulu
Oh a secret mission.
The selection of Mr., Blount for this
mission indicates that Mr. Cleveland is
not yet satisfied that Hawaii should be
annexed to the United States, but has
not made up his.mind to oppose it. Mr.
Blount will make Il very thorough in
vestigatihn of the situation, and the
Presidents future action on the subject
will probably be governed by his report.

fore the public. Mr.. Blount took a
very conservative position, refusing to
commit himself on the subject OF an

deemed to be reliable that the over

The Growing Crops.

The past week had anything in the
agricultural world practically at a
standstill. The cold weather was ac-
companied by high wind and in north
ern latitude some snow. Under more
favorable conditions, and with warm,
growing weather we should see great
many oats sown during the coming
week. The farmers are today princi-
pally where they were overa week ago
with the winter crop. The last cold
wave prevailed all over the winter
wheat belt and during the period the
ground was kept frozen anl atthis stage
of the crop it isimpossibIe to say wheth-
er there has beenany serious damage to
wheat or not.

To Capture the Fire Fiends.

AS the revolt of SO many fires the
origin of which could never be traced
farther than of incendiary, the perpre-
traitors never being caught, the citizen
of Pine Bluff have been aroused to the
true condition of affairs, and have rails
ed a reward fund which will be offered
for the apprehension and conviction of
the fends. The services of expert de-
tectives will be engaged and no effort
possible will be spared to capture and
bring the offenders to justice
The latest incendiary fire in that
city was on the Is inst, and consumed
the car house of the Citizens Street
