| OF 1t, though everybody else in New York

spondents OF the other New York papers
and give Che whole blessed snap away. I'll

many persons in her life, was once caught
IN her own trap: and / shall inform them
how it took place. A nd they'll he glad to
get 1t, you bet. IL will make quite inter
estins reading in the New York opposition
papers some fire Sunday morDfns-about
column and half, say. Won't there be
some swearing in The A reus office when
that appears? II won't be- your losing
. the dispatch you were going to send. but
it viii be your utter idiocy in making the

onto 1t. Why, The best thing in the world
for you to do, and the only thing, is to
keep as quiet about it as possible. / am
astonished at a girl of your sense. Dolly.

The newspaper correspondent pondered on
these words.
And If l keep quiet about it, Will you

anxiously awaiting her arrival in his room,
she did not appear.
