were self engrossed in your remorse.
You did not remember that you robbed
me of my new found strength and self
reliance when you showed how little,
after all, truth and conscience can bep'
Hugh's sense sickened at the words.
Oh, they We're true! The horror of her
rudderless, lonely future as it stretched
away before her he saw clearly with her
eyes for the first time.
New thoughts started up like ghosts
and menaced him. The grimness Of the
equal retribution demanded gripped his
heart. But it was just. What was it
other than the weakness he had found
so desirable calling to him now in in
sistent, imperious tones? 1t cried to
him, bdS without temptation. 1t had
put forth talons to hold him with q
grasp of steel to earth when he fain
would rise.
Weak and pleading again, Marian
threw herself on her knees and flung
her arms around his body. He could
never forget her changed face as she
looked up at him.
"Oh, how can you cast me off like
this and go away? How can you do it?"
she called in bitter pain. "You will
have work, new scenes, balm for your
wounded conscience, nothing but the
burning memory Of you, phantom by

pletely; her weeping rose and fell; her
tears moistened his hand.
A turmoil of indecision and misgiving
swept over Hugh, nebula of pain
through which Marian S continued pray
ers came to him family like voice afar
off crying i'll the wilderness.
In the perfumed stiffness of the room
the clock struck 10. His face grew
CHASTITY, but little while longer might
he linger there.
Never had he loved her as in that
moment, nor felt her half so desirable,
nor the magnitude of his contemplated
sacrifces so heavy on his heart,
He leaned down, and pressing his
hands hard upon her shoulders held her
away, his eyes commanding hers.
"You know all that the going means

me. 1t is like death to leave you so. Oh,
do love you Believe that, whatever

1t was as il he had given her the
choice Of his life or death. She read thii

WASHINGTON, April 21.--The
House Committee on Commerce
again discussed the Pacific cable
project today. 1t was decided
that if Congress grants a subsidy
for a cable it should not be greater
than 100000 year for twenty
years. A substitute was offered
by Corliss of Michigan to author
lie the Postmaster General to ad-
vertise for bids from cable COM
panies for doing cable business
for the United States between the
coast and the Hawaiian Islands
and Japan for twenty years, un-
der conditions which Congress
would prescribe in the bill. The
Postmaster General will report
the result Of the bidding at the
beginning of the next session,
and the offer of the lowest re-
sponsible bidder will be accepted.

south Sea Missions.

The Southern Cross Log, the
journal of the Melanesian Mission
for the month of April is to hand,
and completes the series of the
first years publication. 1t states
that the work of the mission
grows apace, and as the Southern
Cross cannot visit all the places it
has been decided to have a
schooner to assist in the work.
Mr.. Nelson, a resident of one of
the islands of Florida, and great
friend to the mission, has agreed
to lend his schooner for work in
the Solomon Islands. 1t is pro-
bable that Mr.. Edgell, now of ST.
Augustine's College, Canterbury,
will join the Melanesian Mission
during the year, having been
accepted by the Bishops Commits
saries in England. The Rev. H
Welchman, who is at Siota, in
Florida, will return to Norfolk
Island in June, when his mar
riage with Miss Rossiter will take
place, and they will return togeth-
er to Siota in the second trip of
the vessel. Miss Rossiter is the
first lady of the mission who has
faced the climate and trials of
work in the islands. The church
folk will be glad to hear that the
Mota Dictionary (Mota being the
language of religion, the vulgar
tongue of the Melanesian Mission) },
compiled by the veteran DIR. Cod
rington, and being printed by the
Society for Promoting Christian
knowledge, will be published
shortly. This book will be 800
pages, and will be of immense SER
vice not only to philologists, but
also to all missionaries joining
and having to master the vulgar
tongue. Bishop Wilson's journal
is continued, and the other arti-
cles are "The New Zealand Mela.
nesians" and "The Melanesian
Mission in Queensland" ETC.

hold of the steamer There it encoun-
tiers the grain trimmer, scoop in hand
and dusty in appearance. There are
ten in the gang, and they shovel. the
grain back under the deck until there
is just as much in the steamer as it will
hold. The decks arc swept OF chalf
and grain, the hatch covers are put III
place, and the signals to the engines
given to start up. The steamer goes
down Lake Michigan, through the
straits, past Detroit and finally Ill
rives in Buffalo There the cargo goes
into new storage, and is again weighed
out into freight cars on an Eastern
road. The process is repeated at the
New York elevators, and in a short
time the corn finds itself in the hold
| of an ocean steamer, and arrives in
Europe to the consignee, who sold the
grain by the Chicago board of trade.
| From the time the grain is shipped
from the country elevator. until it
reaches Liverpool, the profits of the
'.middleman' do. not exceed four cents
per bushel. This includes all the COM
missions for handling the grain for
every one through whose hands it

makes any large sum on the shipment.

journey. is a matter of conjecture, for
with all the mixing up it would not be
strange if the final cargo is made up
of corn from half dozen different
States, and no two bushels shipped

THE SKOFIELD SECRET.
An Esseifce: KNOWN fora Maine Trapper
that is a SURE Lure for Foxes

An Esseifce KNOWN fora Maine Trapper
that is sure Lure 5for Foxes.
At the head Of beautiful +Magraw
pond, in the town of Oakland, Me-,
lives William Brown; trapper.-guide and.
fox hunter. Last fail and winter, in an
other part eB.Maine,S he succeeded in
capturing eighty-three foxes, ninety
eight sl1unks, thirteen coons and mine
minks, in addition to two magnificent sill
ver-gray foxes, now so rare. SO nearly
does he succeed in DISCRIMINATING the
foxes in the region in which he traps
that he rarely finds it profitable to spend
more than one season on the same
grounds; hence his change. from Mon
mouth, the sScene of his: last Year S. .ex-
ploits, to Oakland this year. where he
anticipates making things hum for poor
Reynard as soon as the season opens.
His traps are kept filled, not because.
of sheer good luck, but because he has
a secret scent, or essence, of which one
drop sprinkled upon the bait will attract
the slyest fox that ever ran. Among
frontier and Canadian trappers this prep
aratIon is kSGW'n:sas the ;..'Sk6field Sc
cret."~ Its discoyerer was one ..SlSofeld,
an old ~trapper; who years ago lived IN
Northern Vermont and gave the secret
to William Browns brother, who In
turn impaired it tQ Brown, Brown uses
no dogs" or".fireGfhlsi in .fftlnting foxes
He simply traps them and knocks them
on the head with an AK as he goes the
rounds of his traps, which are placed
an eighth of a mile apart and usually
cover a large territory. He invariably
catches his foxes by one of the front
paws, and only once has he found
fox with a hindleg in the trap. The
traps, ARE. not fastened. to ;the ground
but are connected by short chain with
thr4e sharp haoksMor. ~grapne1s, which,
soon catch on some logs or among the
underbrush, bringing the victim to al
abrupt standstill. Brown relates that
once he borrowed trap from neigh
Dor, and during single winter caught
seventeen foxes with it. Deciding that It
must be his mascot, he purchased it,
and the very next fox to become en-
tangled in its snares broke and twisted
it SO :as6adlXs,4is to. render it: beyond fur
Their service. This, Brown declares, goes
to show that it is sometimes better to
borrow than to buy.
After this seasons trapping is over
it is quite probable that Brown will
move to Prince Edward island, and will
there trap for silver grays, which are
still plentiful in that region. The mar
ket for foXskins is almost entirely in
England, the pelt Of the ordinary fed fo9
bringing from $3.50 to $1.75, according
to the color and condition Of the fur.
