CHAPTER Y.

Lady Bayneham's dinner party was a
very pleasant one.
BERTHE Carlyon was there, and no one
could be dull or ~listless in his presence.
He had the happy faculty of Frightening
and amusing every one. He talked gay
and agreeable nonsense. The Countess
Of Bayneham was in one of her most gra-
cious moods. Barbara Earle had her own
reasons for trying 10 make the party a
pleasant one. and Lady Hutton never
failed in being both agreeable and enter
tanning. No one noticed Hilda's silence
and Claude's depression, except Barbara;
nothing ever escaped her.

portrait" said Lady Hutton TO her host

Lady Bayneham, in a loW voice. Miss

Lord Bayneham, who had overheard
this conversation, loved the countess bet

before. He could see that she admired
Hilda. and she had given him another
opportunity of meeting her.

You will be pleased to see SO many
beautiful flowers" said Lord B%ayneham,
fceiing that he must break the silence,
which had grown painful.
Hilda looked up at him; their eyes met.
md he saw tears shining in hers. Then
he saw, too. that her beautiful face had
lost some OF its bloom, and that she looked
sad and sorrowful.
You have never been to see lis. Lord

look. for he said no more. 81 half eX-

There was a tone of %reproach in her

He saw the lovely face grow pale and
deaih-likc. the dark, violet eyes become
shaded and dim. the sweet lips CULVER and
then grow strangely still. He saw all
this and would have given his whole life
for power TO have uttered one word, but

She tried TO say she wished him all hap
piness. but her trembling lips could utter
no words. He saw Lady Hutton and
Barbara Earle coming toward them. !
Lady Hutton was utterly unobservant.
hut Barbara Earle's dark eyes saw the
strange pallor upon the beautiful young
face-saw that some keen. sharp pain had
taken all brightness and happiness away.
She saw. and her noble. womanly heart
pitied the fair girl and wondered what
her sorrow could be.
'Hilda." said Lady Hutton. ARE you

us TO dine with them. She is going TO the
opera. and we can form one party. What
do you say. M dear
Hilda said something. but the words
were SO faint and indistinct that Lady
Hutton did not hear them. just then she
caught sight Of the girls white face. and
uttered a cry of surprise.

his cousin.
Il will see about the carriage AZ once.

am sure my mother will be quite ready TO

Barbara Earle walked by Hilda's side.
and talked gayly to her until the faint
color came again into the fair face, and
the startled, frightened look vanished
from the sweet, tender eyes.

Six Mormon Members Of the Leg
isIature Left Sweet.
TWO DEMOCRATS Hell ED
One PopuIist Was Absent and shoup
Thus Received II Bare Majority
of the Vote.

Boise City, Idaho, March 7.--George
l.. Shoup was today elected TO
the United States senate to succeed him
self. Five of the southeastern members,
fearful lest the remaining Sweet forces
and the populists would prevent an cleo
ton, left Sweet and went to Shoup
The joint session chamber was packed
with spectators. Representative Clark
of Bear Lake county. the first Mormon
to vote, arose when his name was called
and announced that he was satisfied
that Sweet could not be elected, and in
order that Idaho should have it's full
representation in the United States SEN
ate he would name for his second choice
Shoup. The remaining five Mormon
members voted for ShOup in turn. The
absence of Hanrahan, pOpulist, made
p majority. The vote was Shoup 81
Sweet u, Crook IA.
Mr.. Henry of KoOtenai, one of Sweets
supporters from the first, made a speech
when his name was called, eulogizing
Sweet and inferring that Shoup's cleo
ton had been secured by the use of
money.
The result of the vote was received
with loud shouts. Hats were thrown in
the air, and for a moment pandemo-
mum reigned, and the crowd and mem
bers poured down town shouting like
mad. As soon as the word reached the
business portion of town or the election
of Shoup, flags were run up and the
town was soon in gala attire.
The Merchants Protective AssOcia-
ton appointed a committee for the pur-
pose Of getting up public reception at
the opera house tonight for Shoup, but,
at his request, it was abandoned. The
Sweet supporters cannot conceal their
disappointment. and some of them have
gone so far as to charge corruption in
connection with the change of front on
the part of the Mormons. The result
was several street fights. One of the
members, a leader of the Mormon mem
bers of the senate, and in fact Of the
legislature said the Mormons saw that
an election of Sweet was impossible, and
their sense of duty to the people and
to party alone prompted their action in
voting for Shoup. Sweet, when seen,
refused to make any statement.
The detailed votes for the republicans
were as follows: For Shoup-Baxter.

point the rolls will be Immediately

SITUATION AND CLIMATE.
The reservation is bounded on the
north by Latah county, and extends
south into Idaho and Nez Perez coun-
ties. The Clearwater river runs through
the north and east sides of the reserva-
ton, and many streams run in every
direction
The general contour of the reservation
consists of hills and valley lands inter
spersed with numerous streams and
springs Of never-failing water A limit
ed supply of timber exists in certain
portions of it, while an abundant sup
ply is a all times available from points
east and adjacent to it. The extent of
territory embraces an area of about
LILO square miles.
Owing to the different elevations at

and of which this is but a continuation.
MINES.
Contiguous to the reservation are
some of the finest gold mining districts
in Idaho, viz: Pierce City, Ora Elmo,
lying 25 miles east. These districts are
well known among mining men as being
rich in placer and gold quartz PROPOSE
