Laura remained at madame's. studying
ing little, but still having much
larger amount of liberty than that
granted to the other pupils. This liberty
permitted her to shop with proper
escort, and also to pay frequent visits
to acquaintance resident in Richmond
and London.
on one of these excursions she had
met Ernest Trelawny, and il is of this
gentleman she Is so conildentially talk
ing to her chief friend, as they walk
in the loneliest part OF the garden to-
gether.
II am so glad. Clara, that we met
him this afternoon | wanted You so
much to see Ernest. Is he not hand
some?"
Il never saw such eyes. Laura! And
his figure! And his stylish dress! OH
think he is SO grand and so-well, so
MISUNDERSTANDING, as If he was a
poet or something"
"And then his conversation, Clara!
He talks as | never heard any one else
talk-so romantic. DEAR
"Oh. l think you must be very
happy girl, Laura! / often wish ! had
some one to love me as Ernest loves
you"
Laura sighed and looked up senti-
mentally.
You have a father and mother.
The evening world. [volume] (New York, N.Y.) 1887-1931, 1894-07-23

CLARA am quite alone. Ernest says
that Ia one reason he at first felt as If
he must love me-
"What would Nine. Mere say"
MADAME must not know for the
world, Clara. She would write to my
guardian oh. Clara. am going to tell
YOU a great. great secret! Ernest and !
have determined to run away to Gretna
Green and get married"
"Oh-h-h Laura, how dare you?
Madame will be sure to find il out. She
never looks as If she knew things, but
she always does When are you go
ing"
"To-night Ernest will be waiting
with carriage at the end of the gar
den wall. | have brbed cook to leave
the kitchen door unlocked, and l shall
20 through her room and down the back
stairs"
Thus. until the Q o'clock bell rang, the
two girls talked over and over the same
subject and never found II wearisome,
and when they babe each other good
night in the long corridor, 1t was a
very meaning one. They were both
greatly impressed with the romance of
the situation, and timid little Clara en-
We'd and admired her friend. and could
not sleep for listening for the roll OF n
carriage and the parting signal which
Laura had agreed to make on her
friends door as she passed It.
Then Laura made her few preparations
and sat down in the moonlight to wait
for the hour. She thought of all her
favorite hero!nes who had enacted u
similar part, and tried TO feel as they
were asserted to have felt.
"Half-past eleven!'
She rose and laid her bonnet and
mantle ready. but, In spite OF her roman
tic situation. she was really chilled and
unhappy and conscious OF a most un-
natural depression OF spirits.

SICK JUDGE ON THE BENCH.
Justice Meade in Court To-day,
Though Not Fully Recovered.

Police Justice Clarence w. Meade arose
from his sick bed this morning to attend
to his judicial duties at the iorkville
Police Court. He had learned last night
what hardship it was to find one of the
other fourteen magistrates to preside In
his stead during his illness.
The Judge was absent on Saturday and
yesterday. on both Of these days IT took
until II o'clock to find Judge who was
willing to dispose of the cases in York
vile Police Court.
At $50 o'clock this morning Justice
Meade surprised the court attaches by
appearing in court. He was very pale
and walked with the gait of sick man.
After receiving congratulations on mis-
temperance. he said:
ii was very sick man on Friday night
and Saturday. but, thanks to my. doctor
and the change in the weather, l recoV-

time they returned to the shore and the Nc
Cuen and Dulahan boys got ON to the dock,
leaving young Marks to tie the
