Falck's poor muscle by the way he
handed him the reins. Fritz was bal

on the top Of the wood pile and watched
the horse with the eye of a connoisseur.
Now and then he vouchsafed his future

wound about his neck and waist. Pres.
emily Hulda appeared, stepping lightly
in spite Of the heavy fur cloak (Which
was the common property Of three sis.

youthful elasticity which aroused the
admiration of the critical Nils.

with the malice Of jealousy.

and spat with an expression Of concen-
trated cynicism and disgust, but the
words he uttered We're not for ears po-

Mr. Falck was in the meanwhile
awkwardly assisting in disposing his

horse, who started forward with a jerk

the great snowbank at the gate. A
maid here emerged from the house, call

frantically above hen head.
Mr. Falck stopped the horse and in
quired what was the matter.

The world was vast, white void. The
forest was half buried under shroud
Of snow, and the pines stood with droop.
ing branches. groaning under their bur.
den. Now and then when a load Of snow
fell the bough shook itself with sense
of relief, and the fine frost crystals driz.
zled down gliStcning in the sun.
The parsonage, lying waist deep in
the snow, looked like n fortress in a
state of siege, surrounded by its white
breastworks and ramparts. The Christ.
mas shoaves, nailed on tall poles to the
gables Of the barn and the mansion, had
been pretty well pillaged, but noisy
swarms Of sparrows still kept flying from
one to the other and fought sham bat
ties for the possession of the dilapidated
straw. a frouzy magpie sat in the
maple near the front door ruffling up
her feathers against the cold and look
ed disgustCd.
At the window in the large and coy
sitting room stood Mr. Falck looking
no less disgusted than the magpie. The
room was filed with song and the odor
Of salted rose leaves. For quiet, Chris

citable fluid vibrating with suppressed

prano, and deliriously "rampageous"
baritone went mad with exultation
They repeated it singly and conformity

Then came a recital Of all the various
circumstances under which they loved
and would continue to love each other
summer, winter, sunshine, moon
shine, rain, etc and Mr. Falck CON
cluded it was time for him to have an
accounting with his fiancee so as TO dis
cover how they We're standing. He stood
contemplating the young engineers
back as he tossed his head hither and
thither in the ecstasy Of the song, though
it was less demonstrative that Hulda's s,

ton
Would you care to take sleigh ride
with me this afternoon?' he asked
when the song was at an end. "The
weather is magnificent "
She looked at Brun as if her answer
IN some way depended on him, and Mr..
Falck even fancied that there was some
hidden understanding in her glance, as
if she were begging him to help her out
of her predicament.
Il hope you will kindly excuse her, "
began the engineer with embarrassed
haste, for he was anxious to prove equal
to the occasion ""rhe fact is-that is to

No FIRST BALLOT NOMINATION
Mckinley Not to He Nominated by
an AcclimatiOn Vote.

st. Louis June 7.-According to an in
with Chauncey l. Filley. the re-
publican leader of Missouri. which APP
pears in the Post dispatch, William Nc
Kinley will not be nominated on the first
ballot.
Can Mr.. Mckinley he nominated on
the first BALLOT" was asked Mr.. Filley.
Yes, but there is no purpose on the
part of his friends and managers to at
tempt any such condition. Those who
talk or urge it are not the friends of
Mckinley in the real sense of true friend
ship. They are evidently unfamiliar with
the rules of the republican national con
ventions. and the courtesies to every can
didate and his right to have his name
presented, voted upon and to have the
vote announced.
1T would be the height of presumption
If not impudence to attempt any other
course The friends of Reed. Allison
Morton and others. even If in the minor
ity, have their rights. and they will be
respected. The rules of this convention
like others of the past, will, no doubt
provide that when the roll Is being called
no change of vote will be in order ant
that it will be announced. Then, If 4
majority has not been had, another ballo
will be proceeded with, and continued
until there is a majority of all the dele
gates elected announced
Hence, no stampede or acclamatioi
vote will be in order without the con
tested southern votes, some ll5 of Nc
| kinley's, 1t is possible to nominate hin
on the first formal ballot. Sometimes a
informal ballot is taken"

THE ORBETT-sHARkEY CONTEST
As Usual the Match Only Ended In
Empty Talk.

San Francisco, June Vigorous efforts
are being made here to get on four
round match between Corbett and Tom
Sharkey. the muscular sailor. who so far
has whipped every man he has gone
against. Last night it was reported that
an agreement had been reached whereby
Corbett would meet Sharkey in four
round contest He would not agree to
knock the sailor out, however. but slip
ulated that If Sharkey was knocked out
in four rounds he (CorbetO was to get
80 per cent of the gate receipts and
Sharkey nothing. If Sharkey should be
on his feet at the end Of the fourth round,
the receipts were to be divided between
the two, Corbett 10 receive tn larger
share Corbett today denied that he had
made any such agreement but the man
ayers of the National Athletic Club say
that a new deal is now being negotiated
which will result in fight of some sort
ON June %.
Corbett stated to the Associated Press
tonight that he was willing to meet Shar
key in a four-round go, but could not
guarantee to knock him out. The cham
pion's proposition is tina. IL he should
put Sharkey out. he is to get so per cent
of the gross receipts, and Sharkey moth
ing. If Sharkey should manage to stay
four rounds, the sailor should receive a
small proportion of the receipts. Sharkey
at first agreed to this proposition and the
| fight set for June %. Later, how
ever the big sailor concluded that n.
was getting the short end and insisted
| that if he should be on his feet at the
end of the fourth round the contes
should be declared a draw. Corbet
laughed at what he calls such a nervl
proposition, and declines to allow Shar
| key oportunity to make a draw will
| him. Corbett could not be induced t,
change his opinion and Sharkey coul'
not be persuaded to meet the champion
on any other terms than those he pro
posed, the fight is off temporarily. /
is very probable however that Sharke,
may be tempted to stand up before Cor
bett and do his best to stay four round
for the short end of the gate receipts.
