THANK God!" he cried. 'I have
found out two things. and the one
would break my heart but for the
other, but that lifts IL to the skies. My
darling, until today had not all your
love. But know that 1 have it-all-
now"
Elsie knew It, too; and the thought
OF Sellers troubled her no more. More
over, in the utter happiness of this
hour, she forgot the one wrong act
she had ever known her husband com
init. She forgot the shooting of the colt
that had thrown her to her hurt. She
forgot that her husband was to be
feared as well as loved, like most men
whose anger is slow to rise, but slow
er yet to subside.
At midnight Elsie was happily asleep;
and Clay sat writing his will in the
station store
When he had signed the informal
document, and locked It up in his desk,
the squatter carefully cleaned brace
of revolvers, until the lamplight shone
through barrels and chambers unim-
peded by a single speck. Then he load
ed both weapons in every chamber, and
put them in his pockets with q num-
Der of loose cartridges besides.
1t was now one o'clock and a starry
morning. The squatter came outside,
then stood listening. All was still and
silent in the house, and only a faint
light glimmered in his wife's room. In
the horseyard the night horse was
munching his hay and oats. Clay
looked wistfully towards that glim-
mering light, but turned his back stead
fastly upon it, and saddled the night
horse with a sudden feverish energy,
which contrasted forcibly with his
hitherto -blooded deliberation. Yet,
after all, he could not go away like
this! He must see her once more,
whom he might never see again. So q
little later Clay was creeping along the
veranda in his socks; and a little later
| still, he was kneeling at his wife's bed
side.
He had made up his mind, and he
never unmade it. Yet how hard to go
| to his death, a presentiment told him
on this night of all others! Go he
| must however; a regiment of soldiers
could not have driven and goaded him
| onward more remorselessly than his
| own obstinacy and his own passion.
| And yet for one moment he wavered.
and prayed with all his soul for the
| higher courage; it was when his wife
| smiled in her Sleep unluckily, almost
with the smile, she tossed her arms,

When for a. whole winter New York
city uproariously applauded and laugh

acts and antics of Capt. Woodward's S

Skill, patience and kindness have at
length actually taught these queer am
phibious creatures to use their f1ippers
with the deftness of artistic hands and
feet, in the accomplishment of a num-
ber of most wonderful and amusing

play upon musical instruments, sing
solos and choruses, pitch and catch
with marvellous accuracy, and do many
other things in most human fashion.

His own shadow fell sharply across

LECTURE ON ELECTRICITY.
S. IL. sharpsteen, of Binghamton, N.
W. viii Deliver IL.

s, H. Sharpsteen, of Binghamton,
N. Y, will give an Illustrated lecture
in the high school auditorium on FIJI
dav evening at 8 o'clock illustrating
by apparatus some of the most won
derful recent discoveries with refer
ence to electricity. Nickola Tesla's ex-
periments are famous the world over
and how few people in this country
have seen his demonstrations repro
duced. Miniature flashes of lightning
"a inches long will be produced with
all their roar and cracking. A cur
rent of electricity of a million volts
pressure will be allowed to pass
through a mans body and light a
tube or lamp. A sixteen-candle power
lamp will be lighted through a glass
jsr Only one turn of wire will be put
around the outside of the jar. from
this one turn the lamp will hang and
be lighted. Among the high frequency
effects the production of a sheet of fine
sparks resembling the aurora borealis
ie one of the most beautiful. This will
be produced. This is one of the great
est wonderments to the people. Many
other experiments of Tesla's will be
reproduced with high frequency cur
rent.
Mr.. Sharpsteen has devoted much
time to the construction and manufac-
ture of X-ray apparatus, he has made
thorough study of the whole science
was one of the first to produce X-rays
in abundance, and also one of the first
to find that the flesh could be killed
by X-ray exposures.
A full description of the use OF
X-rays will be given. An X-ray pic
ture will be taken on the stage. Pre-
cautions as to avoiding X-ray burns
will be given. How Roentgen discov-
cred that he was producing X-rays
will be illustrated.
The German and English theories as
to the production of X-rays will be
enlarged upon, and the experiments OF
Professor Crookes proving the fourth
state of matter will be illustrated.
The lecture will be under the au-
spices of the board of control and
fire physician will be chosen from the
audience to examine the X-ray ma
chine. If satisfactory it will be pur-
chased for the physical laboratory OF
the high school.

to the homestead-nearly always when
you were out--but until today 1 have

She shuddered, and glanced at the door
with great eyes that seemed to see
| Sellers entering it again. "Oh, Robert,
how can tell you what things he said
to me in this very room? l cannot de-
| grade myself and you by telling you.
He must be mad; that can be the only
explanation. Heaven knows how 1 ever

She had flung out her hands in a
gesture, the lamp-light had fallen on
her wrists, and, in an instant, the quiet
husband, the strong, still man, was
quivering, tottering, grinding his
teeth.
Your wrists!" he gasped. "Those
marks--tell me quickly-he made
them?"
He must have done. In his fury he
seized me by both wrists. 1 do not
think he knew what he was doing"
He shall know" cried the squatter.
HE shall! know, as there is a God
above!"
Then Elsie began to regret that she
had told her husband all; and yet she
had never been so happy in all her
life before. She had strong man to
lean upon. She had no more secrets
from him, and never before had he
