that he had been enjoying" chills and

for a moment. and Enderby called en-
couragingly to his men.
At this exciting moment, while call
ing to his men, he saw what struck him
dumb-his son hurrying forward with
a flag of truce to Lord Ripingpdale!
Instantly my. lord commanded his men
to retire.
MY God" said Sir John, with a
groan, my sOn-my only SONIA
traitor" And turning to his men he
bade them cease firing.
Throwing open the entrance doors
he stood upon the steps and waited for
Lord Rippingdale.

dishonored gentleman. but now"
But now you yield?'
He inclined his head. then looking
down to the place where his son stood,
he said:
My SONNY only SOM" And his
eyes filled with tears.
His distress was so moving that even
my lord was constrained to say:
He did il for your sake. His majesty
will"
With gesture of despair Enderby
turned and entered the house and
passed into the library, where he found
his daughter. Pale and fearful she
threw herself into his arms.
Al eleven O'Clock that night as they
sat In the same room. while Lord Rip
pingdale and his officers supped in the
dining-room. Sir Richard Mowbray
hurriedly entered.
Come quickly" said he. ''the way is
clear-here by this window-the sem

by the gate of the grape-garden, and
two of your servipg-men mounted.
They will take you to hiding place

AS he talked he helped them through
the window, and bade them goodby

Neither his majesty nor my Lord Rip
pingdale dare put a finger upon me-I
would tear their eyes out"
Endcrby smiled half sadly at her and
answered:
'''rhe fear of woman Is one Of the
worst fears in this world. Booh."
SO ludicrously did he initiate her own
manner of few moments before that
humor drove away the flush of anger
from her face and she sat upon his
chai-arm and said:
''But we will not part: we will stand
here till the king and Lord Rippingdale

He uatted her head caressingly.

replied.
At that moment there was sound

There was silence for a moment.

His sister came near her father where
she could look her brother straight in

He stopped long enough to note the
number of the floor ON which the busi-

on, and then hurried inside and made his
way to the dental parlors.

all the crews are busy.
The Texas railroad commissioner has
ordered all the railroads in the state
to make monthly reports of gross earn
ings and operating expenses. stating
specially the amount spent for main
tenance of equipment, conducting
transportation and general expense. In
the report of tonnage and revenues
the companies must state the number
of tons hauled and also the gross
amount received separately from the
principal products handled. This will
bear especially upon the Missouri. Kan
sas and Texas and the Gould roads,
which at present do not publish month
ly net earnings. The matter has been
pressed before the Texas railroad com
mission for a long time, and is now
successful.
The president of the Central Traffic
roads says that the decrease in earn
ings in that group of roads Is wholly
due to the bad weather which has pre-
vailed. making country roads absolute
ly impossible. 1t Is worse In Illinois
and Indiana than in Ohio, but In all
three states the railroads are doing no
local business. through trains furnish
only deferred and will he very large
when the roads are passable. The same
state of affairs prevails to a less extent
south of the Ohio river He thinks
that the volume of business generally
Is larger than last year and when spring
is fairly opened earnings will show con-
siderable increases.

The Pennsylvania has placed another
large order for new steel rails. to
weigh 100 pounds to the yard. which
are to be laid at different points be-
tween Altoona and Jersey City. This
is nearly double the weight rail which
the company used up to 1870.
3 1t is learned. says the New York
News Bureau. that the amount of the
sale of American steel rails to Japan
reported asst week was considerably
understated at 10000 tons. The trans
action was about 80 per cent. larger
than that. The order was taken by the
Illinois Steel company, which will de-
liver the rails on shipboard at this port.
The same company has booked an
equally large order from the Grand
Trunk railroad. 1t Is not claimed that
there is much profit in either transac-
tion. as in both cases the manufacturer
had to compete with English Makers
but the smallness of the profit is Off
set to an extent by the satisfaction of
successful competition with English
rail mills, particularly in securing the
Canadian order.
