CHAPTER Y.
Loves Reward,

Some time had elapsed before Lord
Ayre could engage the services of
very celebrated doctor, who had al
ready performed several successful OBJ
eratiOnS of a kind similar TO that
which alone could restore Kate Lii
burne'S reason.
The injury which had reduced the
baron's eldest daughter to a condition
little better than that of idiOcy was,
as we know, caused by her fall, the
skull being fractured
A piece of the skull was pressing
upon the brain, and only by relieving
this pressure could the organ Of rea-
son be made once more capable Of act
ing in natural manner.
This was, of course one Of the most
difficult operations for mortal man to
perform with safety. for the bone that
was doing the mischief had to be saw
ed through and removed; but if one
particle of matter fell upon the brain.
or If the membranes in which that i'm:
portant organ is held were in the
slightest degree injured, then death
was inevitable, and probably would be
instantaneous.
If, however, the bone could be re-
moved effectually and without acct
dent. thin plate could be fastened
over the exposed spot, and the patient
would in all probability completely re-
cover.
The danger as will be seen, wa
very great, and Mrs. Fairfield over and
over again entreated that Lord Lii
burne should be consulted before such
terrible risk was incurred.
But Lord ROland's argument was
that to do as the nurse wished would
be to give his lOrdship unnecessary
anxiety and pain without doing his
daughter one particle of good. while
the accounts which he indirectly OBJ
tanned from SilvertOn Castle described
Lord Lilburne as generally cheerful
and resigned. though sometimes sad
and anxious as the uncertainty of his
daughters fate.
Her father would not hesitate for
a moment" he said, confidently; land

As her son was of the same opinion
as Lord Roland. Mrs. Fairfield was
obliged to yield, though she did so
unwillingly and against her judgment.

templated marriage with Sir Victor

nurse to Lord Rolands views than
anything else, and even when she

had nourishment ready for them and
after partaking of 1t they were all
driven TO their respective homes. The
cave-in occurred just as the men were
preparing to leave the mines. The
men had proceeded from the second
level to the first when a pillar became
dlslodged and tons Of earth and rock
came down, blocking the entrance TO
the shaft.
All work in other portions Of the
mines was suspended and as many as
could possibly crowd into the entrance
OF the diSmantled shaft were set to
work. The managers Of the mines
Formed the reSCuers into relays, and

WHAT DAVIS IS AFTER.
Would Like to BE Made Secretary OF
state.

Washington July 2l-The Washing
ton Star prints the following about
Senator Davis presidential aspira-
tons:
Senator Davis of Minnesota has
been mentioned In connection with
presidential nomination, but il has
been rather in the nature of a COM
pliment and hardly a serious propo-
SitiOn. 1t is not believed that he real
ly has any hope of receiving the nom
nation. and some OF his friends say
that what he wants Is to be secretary
of state. Ii is presumed that the ma
tiOnal convention is deemed the best
place to lay plans for gratifying his
ambition. The SuppOsi;iOn is that
Senator Davis will go INTO the con-
vention with the Minnesota delegation
back of him, and probably with "A call
on Wisconsin. and Immediately begin
some lively GickPring with the leading
presidential candidates. The question
has been raised whether the Minneso-
Ia delegation would allow themselves
TO be traded away by Davis for
cabinet position, but il is claimed
that there will probably be no trouble
on this score on account Of the con-
ditiOns surrounding the senatOrShip.
which would be vacant by Mr.. Davis
elevation to the cabinet. 1t is said
that come of the leading candidates
for senator would smooth the way of
Davis getting the cabinet plum.

Attorney Merrill asked for a new in

was not competent, and the court was
adjourned several hours to allow him
to wire to Brainerd for one. but he
was not at home and the trial pro-
ceeded. The defendant. Archangel.
testified to-day. and Nicholas will be
put on the stand tomorrow. Judge
Edgerton will sum up for the state
and Attorney Pratt for the defense.
=. j. Murphy, justice OF the peace,
was the first witness to-day, and re-
lated the manner of taking evidence
at the inquest and preliminary exam
nation. Archangel Cgistello was
then put on the stand and gave his
version of the trouble the night be-
fore the murder, which differed but
little from that OF preceding wit
nesses, save that he laid the blame on
Ben Gennette. He admitted firing,
but claimed he fired to save his broth
er's life, as Ben and his wife were
trying to take the gun from Nicholas.
and Ben had said he would kill Mich
Olas. He saw his brother fire as he
did He took his rifle because he was
going hunting after he had finished
some work when he left his house In
the morning. Self-defense Is evident
ly what the defense will claim. Arch
angel was closely cross-examined by
Judge Edgerton, but stuck to his story
well.
