RodGen settled back into his
chair, with a groan, aud hid his
face in his hands.
Raymond sat- silent for awhile,
then, finding that the man did
not intend to speak, he concluded
that the best thing he could do
was to go to bed. lie was soon
sleeping and knew nothing more
until the morning light, shining
through the uncurtalned window,
awOke him.
He dressed hurriedly and went
out into the room where he had
left his host. 1t was silent and
deserted. \ glance into the side
room showed that the bed was
unoccupied, and Raymond went
out to look after his horse as we'll
as to see if he could see any signs
of his host. the horse had been
stabbed in a deserted cabin, and
Raymond pushed open the door
and then sprang back into the open
air. S Swinging by halter from the
rafters was ROdden'S dead bOly.
Raymond cut the body down
and laid it carefully in the bunk.
he could do nothing for it, as the
snow covered the frozen earth, so
that one min conld not hope to dig
a grave. Hastily saddlng his
horse, be drove away, after search
ing the cabin in the faint hope that
he mightfld some note of explana-
tion, bat in vain. Not line of
writing, new or old, could be
found.
Raymond stopped at the first
settlement and gave notice of the
suicide at the deserted camp, but
the snow was again falling, and
no party could reach the place for
weeks, II before spring.
When he reached the city, he
wrote a letter to his parents asking
them to break the sad news to the
widowed Mrs. R)dden. Weeks
passed before he received any
answer, and then he was astOunded
to learn that Maggie mad never
returned hOme-ln fact, had never
even written since she left for Cal
ifornia.
BY This time spring had come,
and he was about to make his first
trlp TO the mountain. He reached
the town where he had given notice
ofthe suicide in time to learn what
what had been discovered at the
lonely cabin.
A thorough search had been
made, but nothing had been
found to explain the suicide. Hid
den away in one of the distant ca
bins they found Mrs. R)cden's
clothing, her ornaments, even her
work6asket, and, in fact, so far as
they could Jadge, every article that
had belonged to her.
Raymond told the men of theeIeDts
of that last night and his interpre'
tation of them, but he said nothing
OF his loeeting with the wrOnged
woman III the storm.
They argued that Rodden, jeal'
GUS because bis wife had gone
down the trail after Raymond, in
his anger had killed her, Filled
with remorse when he learned how
causeless the deed had been, he
decided to die in the same way, as
1t the world knew of his crime.
That was Creed Haymond's one
ghost story. Ysars passed before
he could speak at all OF that meet
ing in storm and darkness, but till
the day Of his death he believed
that the spirit Of murdered Mrs
ROdden had appeared to him on
the trall.-St. Louis Post. Dis patch

Reed Talks.

Speaker Reed, in discussing the tremen-
dous landslide, said.
"The completeness ofthe Republican vic
tory cannot be realized. The result
would be surprising one il it had been
hard fought campaign on tho part OF
the Democrats, but notable thing is that
there was no disposition on the part Of
the Democrats TO vote, and no special ef-
fort, except on the part of those Demo-
Gratis who desired to vote the Republican
ticket.
"The result shows profound disapproval
by the Democratic masses of the Demo-
cratic leaders in the past year and a half.
There has been an exceedingly expensive
lesson brought to the homes and bosoms
of men, The result in any district SO far
surpasses the result of 1890 that it leaves
nothing to be desired. IL the rest of the
country does likewise, il would be great
thing for the material prosperity of the
land.
~ have no doubt the other states will do
so. So far Maine has suffered less from
the doings OF the Democratic party than
the rest of the country, however much IT
may in the fnture. 1t seems natural that
the result which should seem significant
in Vermont, and still more so in Maine,
should be even more visible in the rest of
the United States"

Biggest Republican Majority

More Than $1,000 Plurality for Gov.
CIeaves-A Regular Landslide.
Rv the Associated Press.


PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. 1.-THE election
yesterday resulted in an overwhelming
Republican victory. The republicans
polled the full strength OF the party. and
gained many votes among the Democrats.
The Democratic vote showed q remarkable
falling off as compared with two years ago,
in many towns the vote being only one-
third as large.
The Legislature, which will elect a
United States Senator, will be nearly
solidly Republican, there being no Demo-
cratic ienators and few Democratic Repre-
sentatives.
One hundred and eig ghtynine towns give
Cleavcs (Rep.) 1853; johnson (Dem.) ~, :
$50; scattering 1859. In 1892, Cleaves had an
the same towns 1891; Johnson, 1915;
scattering, 4197. Republican plurality this
year y ,3O9, against 1855 in these town in
1892. About two-thirds of the vote is in,
and il the other third comes in the same
ratio, tie Republican plurality will reach
36,5OO.
The heaviest plurality ever given before
was TO Cham mberlain in 1856, viz, q $50,
and this will exceed il one-third. Ii Is
needless to say that the Republicans will
have the Legislature almost solid.
Reed was elected in the First District
about 5000 plurality, against 1877 in 1892,
and $500 in 1890. Cumberland county
gives about 4i0O plurality, and has elected
the full Republican county ticket.
