CHAPTER XIII.

Mrs. Knox, happily unconscious OF
what had passed between Jane and her
Ather, and equally so of the conversation
which occurred afterward between Jane
and Jacob Lynn, was living in fools
paradise. The only name Jane men.
toned while relating the story of her
weeks visit to CawnpOre was that of Val
entine Graeme, and her mother had i'm
mediately concluded that he was to take
the place of the obnoxious sergeant. She
showed her conviction SO unmistakably
that Jane, first amused, grew afterward
almost angry.
"Graeme is a very good Scotch name -
declared Mrs Knox, complacently, three
mornings later, as she adjusted the work
on the plate of her sewing machine.
"Nr. Graeme's father was n brewer
out in Jane, slyly.
MANY of the best families 60 into
trade. / suppose he is very rich, said
Mrs. Knox.
IT dare say. He is not good-lookinG, -
returned Jane, undergoing without winc-
ing the piercing scrutiny to which her
mother subjected her.
Was the child laughing Mt her or ex-
pressing her real opinion? And was she
mistaken in her conjecture? Mrs. Knox
wondered.
He is a gentleman" she persisted,
feebly.
'They were all gentlemen that I me,
at Cawnpore."
But though Mrs. Knox was silenced for
the moment she was not quenched, and
after awhile returned to the attack.
'T don't want to lose my daughter.
should like you to marry in the regiment,
Jane" she began, rather nervously.
81 thought that was just what you did
not WISH" retorted Jane, now thoroughly
lncensed; for the open discussion, which
seemed so natural and desirable TO hcI
mother, to her seemed coarse and almost
lndelicate The tears welled in her eyes
and she was scarlet from modification.
Mrs. Knox drew herself up stifiiy, but
lid not respond. The reference To Ser
Eeant Lynn had alarmed her. She knew
It was best to let sleeping dogs lie, and
was sorry she had said so much.
Mrs. Knox went on busily turning the
handle Of her sewing machine, and bring
ing out apparently endless yards OF COM
pleted work James head began to ache
with the monotonous noise. and putting
down her embroidery, she went and stood
beside the open window. Presently size
started, and smiled little consciously.
Mother, here comes Mr.. Graeme!
The whizzing Of the wheel cegsed with
. sudden jerk, and starting from he'
seat, Mrs. Knox went over to her daugh'

Food for Thought.

Good taste is the modesty of the
mind.
Next to excellence IS the appreciation
of it.
ldleness is as fatiguipg as repose is
sweet.
Our souls much further than our eyes
can see.
As your enemies and your friends,
so are you.
Shun equally asomber air and vIya-
cious sallies.
Il you see one cold and vehement at
the same time, set him down for o
fauatic.
Putting nickles IN the slot is like
pouring water into rat hole.
Every man hates his rival, but some
of them successfully conceal 1t.
There Is nothing more serious than
what some people consider joke.
The eternal stars shine out as soon as
it is dark enough.
! He that has never known adversely
is but half acquainted with himself or
others.

But more was to happen to agitate Jane
that day.
A well-known voice struck upon her ear
with deadly chill, and turned all her
loving warmth to lee.
1t was Jacob Lynn standing a few
PAGES away from the veranda, calling and
beckoning her to join him. Mechanically
she obeyed, descending the low, broad
steps with n lnggnrdness that told toe
plainly of the aversion she felt.
She went bravcly up to her fiance, and
touching his shoulder to attract his at
tention, she began:
at seems you don't believe IN me-

How can l % he answered gruflly, moi
turning to meet her gaze.

A Dakota Verdict.

There is deep indignation here over
the acquittal Of Alice NJ. Giles, who
was tried last week for the murder Of
her husband. The prosecution devel-
oped what seemed to be absolute ev1.
dence, much stronger than was adduc-
ed in the trial Of William Davidson,
last week, for the same crime. for
which he received a life sentence. The
defense in the Giles case succeeded In
getting one man on the jury whom 1t
could rely upon to hang 1t. The State
found this out shortly after the COM
mencement Of the case. and could only
hope for disagreement. Imagine the
surprise Of every one-even the lawyers
for the defense-when the jury came in
with a verdict Of mot guilty" After
the Jury had been discharged, one OF
the turymen told the story Of the YER
dict The jury stood 10 to 2 for convic-
tion, but after being out 36 hours the
ten went over to the two, because, as
some Of them afterward said, they had
to "get home to cut their hay" An
other said he voted for acquittal be-
cause a new trial would be such an
expense to the county" Fourche

cuban Insurgents Pay Tribute to The.
Prisoners Vsior.
Details have been received from Cienfue-
gos, Cuba, regarding the release Of the six
;een Spanish soldiers who were captured by
the insurgents in the engagement fought ut
Tardio Oio de Aqua. In that encounter
ixty-four Spanish soldiers had made gal
ant stand against 300 insurgents. The SOL
iers were commanded by Colonel Vale,
Major Sanchez and Captains Navarro and
Rio, who were among those captured aud
released by Rego, the insurgent leader. The
after was the first to greet the Spanish OFF,
:ers, and, embracing Colonel Vale, he said:
Return to your comrades, heroes. You art
IN honor to the Spanish Nation, and | an
proud to be able TO boast of descen lin;
rom such people"
Then followed a touching moment, dur
lng which the SpaniarIs and the Cuhgns
embraced each other and bade each other
farewell, the Cubans shouting as the Span
iards went away: .Adios, valientes Es-
panoles."
The Spanish soldiers, nearly all of whom
were wounded, were we'll cared for while in
the hands OF the insurgents. and ate at the
same table as Rego. The action of the Gu
bans has caused great good feeling toward
them.
