harrington smiled.
Perfectly SAFE" he replied. but you
will be at hand, YOU know, In case of
Alarm"
The officers Quilted the room and re-
turned to their rotations.
harrington turned the key within the
lock, and Forester drew himself up,
believing that the encounter which had
commenced in the street was about to
be renewed and terminated in that
room.
But harrington threw himself into q
chair and said impatiently:
May l venture. Doctor Forester, to
ask of YOU the motive which urged you
to that unccremonious attack VIII CHI"
..You cannot need to ask me that. sir.
unless 1 have been mistaken in believ.
ing that you are Mr., Noel Darlington"
And because I happen to bear that
name you imagine yourself justified In
attempting to throttle me on the open
strect:"
"You are M Infamous yillain!" cried
Forester.
You are a mailman" replied Bar
rington. "whom l spare only for the
sake of one whose already too greatly
suffering heart 1 would not willingly
add Il pang"
This allusion to Emmeline, coming
whence it did, completed the frenzy Of
her lover. and he was perfectly beside
himself with rage. He rushed toward
harrington, his arm uplifted to strike.
but ere it could descend. it was seized
ard held In a vice.like grip, while Noel
exclaimed. with great effort controlling
his increasing anger:
Tempt me not too far, Doctor For
roster; l have already borne more
from you than could have endured
from any other living man."
Forester thrust his face close to
that of his supposed rival and Kissed
forth:
"Une or the other of US must cease to
exist, for Ic annot longer breathe the
air Of heaven and know that YOU are
living too.
I'll tomorrow you still think thus"
SAID NOEL, You will find me ut your
service"
And then proceeded to unlock the
iOor, against which Forester hast enei
to place his back that 1t might not be
opened.
You shall not leave me-" Forester

Terucing the land in hilly sections
OF the country to prevent washing
from heavy storms Is the best system
yet found applicable in this country.
Not only in the south and west, but
In the New England states, q good
system Of terracing has been found
to lessen the evil very greatly. All
hillsides are the hardest to convert
into profitable fields because Of inc
washing caused by rain storms, either
on the surface or below. Even when
the crops are found that will thrive
on the hills the action Of the running
water carries away 80 much Of the
richest part OF the soil that one must
make great outlay every season for
fertilizers.
A simple system Of terracing Is now
in use by a number Of farmers in this
country. and the effectiveness Of the
system, as well as Its very cheap and
simple work would recommend the
plan to all Others. Strips of light
wood or even poles should he nailed
together In the shape Of a large A to
to lay of the terraces with stride
at the bsise Of about fourteen feet.
Stand the frame upright on perfectly
level floor. and tack u string in the
apex OF the letter-shaped frame and
tie a pound weight to 1t.
Let the string aud weight get per-
fectly still, and then raise one end
Of the base exactly one and one-half
inches. Wsheu the weight gets quiet
again In this position mark on the
frame exactly where 1t swings. This
implement Is invaluable for terracing
a fed properly and 1t will enable the
farmer to do the work scientifically
and rapidly. BY applying this terrace
Ing machine to the fiehl a fall of one
and half inches in every fourteen
feet will be obtained. and this Is just
what science has taught rs to be right.
Beginning at the highest point of
the field lay off with this frame SER
les Of terraces Throughout the whole
hillside. The land should have the
slope marked by the implement until
ditch OF some large hollow Is reach
ed which will carry the water of free
~. Sometimes they are natural here
and there, and 1t will not be necessary
to do anything more, but wherever
the slope Is not sufficient 1t should be
made SO according TO the rule adopt
ed.
As the land is terraced of with the
homemade implement plenty of stakes
should be ready to drive in the ground
80 as to mark the course and depth
Of the terraces. Beginning ut the line
OF the stakes then two-horse p,ow
should throw the soil from either sid,
up toward the stakes. This leaves the
stakes on the top of the terrace. and
the soil Is thrown up around them.
while the running water from the hill
side will then follow the grooves on
either side.
II tine pillow cannot throw the soil
up deep enough other implements must
be used, but generally the plow will
answer. Thereafter every spring the
pillow should be run through these
same furrows, throwing the soil up on
the terraces, and in this way they will
become permanent fixtures Of the
field, heavily matted together with
grass roots. In planting ocl such ter
raced hill let the rows run crOssswis,e
instead Of Up and down hill. The wa
ter will then pass off slowly. and
cause very little damage.-Chicago

Minnesota Democratic Asso-

Great Scheme.
TENNESSEE FOR SOUND MONEY.
Illinois Democrats Make q
Stand For Silver at
Ia to 1.

MINNEAPoLIs, April 6.-The State
Democratic association is at work on .
great political scheme. It is the forma-
ton. Of q free trade party which shall
embrace the whole country. The asso-
citation has sent out circulars inviting
. conference of all believers in free
trade, to be held in Chicago during the
first week in October. The circulars
are not sent to Democrats alone, but to
everybody and every organization
which is opposed to protection. This
takes in the single tax clubs and other
organizations Of that character. Sem
ators Brice and German are to be left
out and it is ever possible that
Tsmmany VIII He Ignored
since the association is impressed with
the idea that the Reform Democratic
club of New York, headed by ex-Secre-
tary Fairchild, is more likely to be in
harmony with it's views. A number Of
invitations have already been sent to
prominent persons asking them to pre-
pare speeches for the occasion Among
these are exc Congressman Wilson, now
postmaster general: Tom L. johnson,
Judge Mcguire, Henry George, o. M.
Hall and Jerry Simpson, the
Populist Congressman From Kansas.
This list develops to some extent the
scopew which the movement is expected
to assume. Its projectors believe that
it will be the beginning Of the forma-
ton of a great free trade party; that il
will swallow up the better element OF
the Democratic party, leaving the tariff
for revenue Democrats out in the cold.
The movement is claimed to have the
endorsement Of President Cleveland,
Secretary Carlisle and many other lead.
