CHAPTER VIII.
A NEW LEASE OF LIFE.


They made an armchair of themselves
by interlocling their hands and arms,
Mexey and Dr. Lamar, to carry her up
the long flights of stairs to her new
home, this pale, shy girl whom the care
fully driven carriage had just brought
to the door of the house at the end of the
quiet street.
How different from the ominous roll
of the departing ambulance was the COM
ing of this iaunty carriagel When Miss
Maxcy had listened to the first from the
parlor window, high above the street,
her sympathetic heart felt as if chill
breath from the icy river had touched it.
Now she waited at the top of the stairs
with rose i'll her hair
Modern science had alone made this ar
rival possible. For the second time with
in the short peYiod Of few weeks brain
surgery had won another brilliant vic
tory. But there was that about this sec
ond and more recent miracle which not
even Lamar himself could explain. That
the result had exceeded his most daring
hopes he had acknowledged, at least to
Maxoy. To rescue from the grave trcm-
bling paralytic victim, who realizes full
well his doom, and himself gives tho
word which authorizes the dangerous
operation as his last fearful chance. is
great indeed, but to pour a flood Of
fullest, frcest light into the darkness
worse than death that enshrouds an in
tellect is something so far greater that it
rises at once out Of the region of human
achievement into that unflthomed realm
of natures mysteries whore the wisest
are as children. No. Lamar was too
scientific man to believe this triumph
all his own, too honest to claim it as his
own, but nevertheless the world would
count it his. Henceforth he would be
great among his fellows.
The victim of the cliff road was still

day would show change for the better

This was scarcely the same being who
once before had been carried by these
four strong arms from the street to the
artists rooms That form had been sub

That face had been distorted with the
hideous nightmare of perpetual fear.

to cling in this bold fashion to strangers

structio2s to put her arms about their
necks with trembling reluctance that
was too spontaneous to be counterfeit.

thought but to Julian Mayey the trem-
ulous touch of that almost transparent
little hand was a va9ue revelation of the
possibility OF n joy to come greater than
any ho had ever known.

The "Antrs Meeting a Failure.

New YORK, June 2.-The business mems
meeting in Carnegie Music hall last even
ing to protest against the income tax
feature of the proposed new tariff bill,
was notable more for the character of the
audience than for the number and en-
thusiasm OF those who attended. The
call was signed by nearly 500 representa-
tives of the largest business interests of
the city, but only LOCO attended the meet
ing. The platform was crowded with gen
tlemen influential in the business walks
of life. Elaborate preparations had been
made to accommodate the wds that had
been expected, speakers having been Sc
lccted to address an overflow meeting. but
there was no call for them. The speak
ers in the hall denounced the income tax
in vigorous terms, but met with few re
spousive cheers.

ent ecstatio frame of mind, with bur
den such as this to carry, he would
willingly have kept on mounting for
ever. As for the palpitating burden her
SELF she was troubled with more senti-
ments than one. This removal, her des-
tination, hcsnew friends, were SO many
mysteries to her. The truth had purpose
ly been kept from her for a specific rea
son, and she had been informed only
that she was to be taken to more Sc
cluded place than the hospital, where
she would be surrounded by brighter in
fuences and would get well the quicker.
Notwithstanding her weakness and
her trepidation at finding herself in the
arms Of the strange men, she was seen
to glance with an expression of interest
and curiosity upon the house and the
entrance into which she was being tax
en-. In spite of DIR. Lamar's assurance
TO the contrary, Maxey hoped that she
would recognize the place and its i'll
mates without a word to aid her. This
was the object of his silence to her. Ii

Miss Maxey, waiting for them in thu
corridor, held the door open for them to
pass in. The girl looked at her in a
mute, questioning manner, without a
shadow Of recognition, that thoroughly

doctors strong tones were the first tc

and several companies have been formed
to execute the work aside from that which

RIOTOUS COLLEGE STUDENTS


CARLISLE. Pa, June 2.-The annual
burlcsque entertainment by the freshmen
of Dickinson college, at the opera house
here last night, ended in n disgraceful
row, which almost assumed the proper
tions of riot. While the performance
was in progress n crowd of sophomores
entered the hall. They were supplied
with tin horns and other contrivances for
making noises and set up din that com
pletely drowned the voices of the per-
formers. One Of the latter became so en-
ragged that he hurled n beer bottle from
the stage into the audience, striking Mrs.
Fushcr, of this city, full i'll the face. The
many other women in the audience We're
panic stricken and began to scream, and
the freshmen and sophomores became in
volved in free fight. The police rushed
In at this juncture and dubbed right and
left until something like order was re-
stored, but II was not until President
Reed, of Dick inson college, appeared that
comparative quiet was restored. Mrs.
Fusher, who mud been carried to the stage
III an unconscious condition, was revived
with difficulty, and taken to her home.
She is badly hurt, but will recover.

Maxey, having transacted his business,
arose to go. The landlords eye rested
abstractedly on the $40 bill lying on the
table, but again he did not seem to see
it.
"Bclfry is always glad to accommo-
date gentleman, he said. II want
no pay for what do. I'll see that the
rascal is kept for you or brought to you
for the sake of helping gentleman in

"whatever l am, and I'm somewhat

"By the way" suggested Maxey,
turning almost on the doorstep as a
thought occurred to him. "of course you
don't know who lives at l6 Livingston
street?'
"Oh, don't l, though? may mention
that Belfry looked that up at once.
She's widow, and she's very rich and
very stingy. Her name is Forsythe. "
There was a ringing in the artists
ears as he went out into the lighted
street again. All the way back to Bal
lavoine place four little words Of the sly
landlord We're sounding in his mind:
Her namo is Forsythe, "
Was it possible that this was the lady
whom Lamar was to marry?

BATTLE OVER SUGAR BEGUN


Longer Senate Sessions.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-The battle royal
over the sugar schedule began yesterday.
The entire day was occupied by two speak
ers, Senators Manderson tNeb.) and PETER
Kan both of whom favored bounty
instead of duty. There were no exciting
incidents. 1t is probable that the hard
hand to hand fighting over this schedule,
on which it is generally admitted depends
the fate Of the bill, will not begin until
Monday. 1t is not considered possible on
the floor of the senate that the sugar
schedule can be defeated outright, as the
Republicans are not absolutely united,
but there is believed to be possibility
that the discriminating duty in favor Of
the sugar reiner may be partially or
wholly defeated. 1t is the intention Of
the Democratic managers to force still
longer sessions beginning on Monday next
The senate is now sitting from 10 a. m.
until p. m. The sessions hereafter will
probably be protracted until 10p. m.
Fridays are usually private siil days in
the house, but yesterday the private cal
endar was sidetracked and the Brawley
state bank tax bill was given right Of way.
The speakers were Messrs. Brosius pal
and Henderson Ulls.) against the bill and
Messrs. Swanson and Tucker (Va.) and
1zlar Is. c. in favor of it, A night session
was held for the consideration Of pension
