collection. some sixty in all. His ia
vorite, and the one he will use in the

Titan Stradivarius, made in 1926,
and is without a blemish. Mr.. Rem
enyi consumes more time every day
in making the toilet Of his favorite in
strument than the ordinary society
lady would in preparing for a grand
party. This is not time wasted by any
means. as new strings must be put on
every day. and all four must be per-

eighteen lengths of c. string, and all
OF the most extensive kind. before he
found one exactly correct in tone.

By the side of the cairn and over

Jos passed the cottage twice daily
on his way out and ON his way home,
and very frequently he saw Mary ut her
door, OF she was searching on the moor
near where he worked, and they never
met without exchange of salutations.
On one occasion, when overtaken by
hailstorm, he had been invited into the
cottage, and had been given cup of
tea that warned his heart as if it had
been peppermint, and got into his head
rs if it had been whisky.
One day when they met on the moor
the northeast blast was SO cutting that
they retired together under shelter of
rock to eat together their lunch of
cold pasty. Considering how cold the
weather was, Jos put his arm round Pol

one arm Of it over her shoulder.
The ensuing night was one of sore
temptation to Jos. He tossed on his
bed. He could not sleep. He sailed
very early from his house and went to
the moor, resolved to raise his treasure,
dispose Of it, dare fortune and marry.

Geo. @. Rice of Allegansee, Mich,
is in Neihart to make this place his
home. He arrived last Friday and
will engage in mining. Mr.. Rice,
though a republican, is enthusiastic
upon the bright outlook for silver.
He says the turning of sentiment in
his country is so expressive as to
cause general comment. Rabid re.
publicans have, since November,
turned into rank silver men, and he
believes that the next three years
will produce such a revolution Of
opinion that unless free coinage wins
in the meantime, no great political
party in 1900 can be able to declare
for the single standard. Mr.. Rice
possesses a keen insight into polite
al affairs, and he thinks the resident:
of a silver camp will see prosperity
before those of any other locality
and that before four years shall have
rolled around free coinage is bounc
to win.
