CHAPTER ".

The next Sunday afternoon, Jonas, out of his limited means, hired the smartest single turnout at the best livery stable in Dartford and drove toward Oak Hill. It was like spring overhead, but the mud was deep under foot and he had to walk his impetuous steed the greater part of the way. The day seemed to hiln perfectly beautiful, and when he was directed to the Hayland farm nobody can describe how pleasant and comfortable it looked. It was joy enough to be out in the country after being cooped up so long in town. He had been promising to go to see his mother at the first good opportunity, but he did not feel the least shame at this selfish use of holiday. The Hay lands best wagon was in the side yard, they had evidently been to church in the morning; and now for the first time Jonas heart began to beat in an awful and even retartling manner. He could not tie his horses hitch rein as it should be tied, the knot worked wrong, and he grew redder and redder and did not dare to look up at the house windows. Then the door opened and hospitable Joel Hayland came out and welcomed him and they went into the house to- gcthcr. There was Love in her Sunday dress as pretty as pink, and Mrs. Hay land was motherly and good natured. She had heard about Jonas from some body who lived ncighbor to his mother, and knew what a good, steady boy he had always been, and that he was do ing well in the bank now; nephew and namesale, too, of rich, old Jonas Dyer, of Dartford. 'We should be pleased to have you stop to supper, MT. Dyer" She invited him kindly, but Jonas
 ought he ought to get back early. then he turned and looked at Love, however, he forgot time and space, and though they proceeded to speak at length of the state of the roads, he felt himself to be entertained, indeed, and the last of the long spring after noon flew by on fleetcst wings.
 There was very fresh little fire in the prim best room. Others might have found the wide, low-storied kitchen a

he turned round, however. nobody was smiling, there was an aspect of self restraint and pious gravity about both Hathaway and Downs; Mir. Pendell was in the safe, and if he openly laughed 1t was inaudible to the young men out side. Jonas knew that misery was in store for him and fairly writhed at hay ing been supposed to resemble his uncle. That tclose-flsted gentleman was perfectly uncomfortable of late, and our hero determined not to live like toad under a barrow any longer
 There was no end to the jokes that the two clerks made that day, but mono of them had any reference to Oak Hill or Jonas journey in that direction. In one wny the simplicity of Loves ques- tion had been little painful, asked ID public as 1t was, and yet he forgave the lack of mnidenly reticence for the sake of delightful permission won from the father himself. Uncle Jonas was per fectly capable of leaving all his money to the cause of foreign missions and disappointing his poor and worthy rela- tives of various degrees; but Jonas was glad to have the indorsement of such relationship.
 Was you ever to Pelham Four Cor
 ners," Hathaway asked Jonas as he
 came in the next morning, but Jonas answered yes so meclxly as he hung up
 his coat, that the allusion was pressed no further.
 "When was up to my brother-in- laws funeral this winter, heard that there was Q man by the name of Wa ters paying attention to the girl of MT. Hayland's," said Downs, the head clerk. He was a sober-minded man, that Hathaway, and seemed to speak truthfully. Jonas's heart stood still /
 "Was there? What kind of man is
 he? She's pretty girl" asked Hatha- way.
 "A kind of seeking widower," an- swered Downs. ''She's younger than

 Chess Match.
 KoKoMo, Ind, April 20.-The fourth game of the Lasker- Showalter chess cham pionship match began at 8 p. m. Show alter played the white and opened to q French defense.
 Lasker's rapid playing in the early part of the game gained much time for him in the latter part of the game, while Show alter was hurried. The loss of pawn at the end of the game by white through an oversight weakened his knight and lost him the game which was his up to this period. Showalter, 3; drawn, 9.

MUSIC TO sANIsH INSOMNIA.

DR.. Blackmnn Thinks q Hand Music Box
VIII Induce Slumber.
Music as curative agent has been
known and valued from tho earliest
ages. says the London Telegraph, and
the recently established Guild of St.
Cecilia, whose professed object is to ap-
ply the soothing influence of melody to
patients in hospitals and elsewhere, is
only carrying out tho prescriptions of
physicians who fourished two thousand
years ago. The Athenian doctors "ban-
ished fever by song" Thales found
music most cfficacious in the plague,
and Aulus Gellius even went so far as to
maintain that it produced Beneficial
effect in cases of bites and stings. In
their work on Psychological MediciNe'
Drs. BuckniIl and Tukc remark that
music is the first recorded remedy en-
ployed for the relief of madness. A
novel, and possibly useful, suggestion
In tho same direction is mentioned by
DIR. j. q. Blackman in the Medical
Magazine.
1t is that a musical box worked
by an electric motor might be pdvan-
tageously employed in cases of insomnia
Some care, no doubt, would have to be
exercised to see that the mechanism
worked properly before it was started,
as nothing would be more likely to
drive sleep permanently away than n
musical box out of tune or liable to un-
accountable and abnormal spurts of en-
ergy. 1t would also be trying to a
nervous patient if in the Silly night
the electric current were turned off alto
gcther and the box became suddenly
silent. 1t is possible that q burglar in
ones bedroom might be soothcd and
induced to surrender his booty by the
unexpected strains of 'IIome, Sweet
Home" but it is also possible that he
might not. One or two interesting
instances arc recorded in the article of
the benefit which has resulted in hos
pitals from the musical treatment, and
the sleepless soul might do worse than
try the prescription contained in it.

TOO POSITIVE.

An Illustration oF tho Dangers OF Over
confidence In Self.
1t Is sometimes fault of young
people to rely too fully upon their own
opinions or impressions, and there are
grown people who arc quite too sure
regarding matters to which they have
given little attention. A passenger on
French steamer tells this story:
The wind was fresh and we were
running at the rate of twelve knots nm
hour. Our mariners were deceived in
their calculations, and as the lead did

they were expected to cppronch thcv

claim:

perior merit, who nevertheless dis
played sometimes too much of the con.
hdence of youth, replied, with a smile:
THOSE breakers, captain, arc nowhere
but in your gluss.'

with q tone of anger, You arc major

HE accordingly gave that order, and
during its execution, the fog having
suddenly cleared away, we perceived,

inevitably have perished, Fortunately
the whole squadron initiated the move

proof and for his adherence TO the duties

, OHIO WILSON INDICTED

III the Superior court OF Wake
county last week the grand jury
found . true bill against S. Ohio
Wilson on which Solicitor Pou
drew y bill OF Indictment against
him and had him arrested
and brought before the court.
Wilson gave bond Of $500 for his
appearance at March term of the
Court.
The indictment charges Wilson
with using the secret organization,
known as Gldeon's Band, as a
means of advancing the political
interests OF the Third party and
of bringing its influences to bear 10

ton. The Indictment charges that
the sign which Wilson gave was
putting the tongue lrom the mouth,
drawing the hand across the mouth
and using the expression "three
hundred"
The case will excite much inter-
est throughout the state and every
fair minded man will say that il
Wilson proves guilty of the charges
against him he ought to be punish
ed.
The statute under which Wilson
was indicted was passed by the
General assembly OF 1901, and
reads as follows:
"If any person, for the purpose
of com passing or furthering any
politicial party or for resisting the
laws shall join or in any way con.
meet or unite himself with any OATH
bound secret political OF military or
garization society or association of
whatsoever name or character. etc.
Every person so offending

meanor, and upon conviction thereof,
shall be fined not less than ten DOR
more than two hundred dollars, o:
Imprisoned, o. both, at the discretion

1t Is safe to conclude that il
Wilson is convicted of the charges
he will be punished to the fall ex-
tent of the law, tor the great harm
and almost ruin which the "GjdeOn
