Mrs. Fearon, who stood ready to an
swer any questions that might be
asked.
What picture is that?" she in
quired.
There was half-reluctant express
sion on the housekeeper's face as she
replied;

alive Of the late Earl's, VI
The young Countess looked at it
again,
But who is it? Is no living? What
is his name?"
1T is Captain Paul Flemyng; he is an
officer in the army" was the reply, still
reluctantly given,
Lady Charnleigh did not seek to re-
press the cry that rose to her lips.
Captain Paul Flemyng !"
She looked again at the handsome
face. This was the man, then, who
but for her would have been Earl of
Charnleigh, whom she had uncon-
sciously and innocently deprived of
this princely inheritance. She looked.
with additional interest at the beauti-.
full face.
He is very handsome" she said to-
herself, gently, He would have made
noble Earl"
Even as she said the words she was
conscious that the housekeepers eyes
were fixed with some curiosity on her
face, and she turned abruptly away.
Many times that evening her
thoughts went back to that sp@ndid
face, worthy of Velasquez. But on the
day following she found no more time
for dreaming. Her table was covered
with cards; the drawing-room was
never without visitors. The full tide
Of life had set in, and Leonie, Countess
Of Charnleigh, woke to find herself
famous.

numbers 5000, 900, Of men, France and
Germany 100000, Austria 2,500,000

kers. They were just in bud. BY and
by he will need trelhs for them to
climb up on, but not-not yet. His hair
hung down over his collar, and every
little while he would scoop it back and
hang it over his ears to keep it from con-
ceaiing his dough colored features.
The two sat just ahead Of me, and he
kept his arm around her waist all the
time and looked happy. When the con-
ductor asked for his ticket, he tried to
get it out of his pocket without using his
engaged arm, but it was SO difficult the
conductor saw the situation and said:
Never mind. will get it for you.
Which pocket is it in?" And as mat
ter of fact the groom showed the official
where the ticket was. and tho latter got
it and punched it, returning it to the
place where it was. Talk about polite
railroad officials! Here's where you find
them.
The groom looked dreamily out of the
car window, and she rested her large
pink sunbonnet against his hickory shirt.
His coat hung up in the car rack, for he
had been taught to take his coat off and
save it when indoors. She wore as
wrap little shoulder shawl of red, blue
and green. 1t was no bigger than Ia
BILE napkin, though it was February and
the air rather cool. Their joint luggage
consisted of little toy valiso made of
enameled paper, with rupture on one
side, through which could be seen twist
Of dog leg tobacco and big red apple.
As we neared Memphis and the con-
ductor began to gather up our checks
the groom, seeing that he was going to
be overlooked and being anxious to show
his honesty, unlocked his half paralyzed
arm from Roseanna and said:
''Hyer, mister, you plumb forgot me, I
reckon. Hyer's your ticket. / won't
take no advantage er tell the Teller that
owns the kyars. l could use her over
again, but amt that kind of Teller"
No." said the conductor, you'd bet
ter keep that to ride on the Iron Noun
tain road with, 30 that you won't have
to pay again. The conductor on that
road is an awfully particular man, and
likely as not he'd make you buy two
more tickets"
And so, with flush of shame, crushed
In the presence Of his new wife while he
was in the act Of being honest in order
to impress her, he slid back in his seat,
gave the little ruptured satchel kick,
and putting his arm back around her
waist he spat out of the window in time
to leave small washout for the next
train and said nothing.
But the way these railroad men kindly
piloted these babes in the wood to their
train and showed them how to check
their joint trunk, little tin affair con-
tanning bed quilt and gourd to begin
housekeeping with, showed that there is
. big lot of kindness and humanity left

themselves as Michael Keyley. Of Jer-
sey City. and James Egan. Of Newark.
The man who escaped is Charles
O'Brien. who is known as the leader of
the gang.
The officers. after Handwriting the pris-
oners, made a search OF the cav which
was about SO feet square. and covered

den fitted UP in luxurious, style. They
furniture was upholstered with velvet
