CHAPTER VII.
low LOLA HEARD THE NEv

The news that Pierre Turrian was
alive did not reach Lola at New York,
owing to mischance. Sir Jaffray and
she arrived there some days later than
they had planned and not until the
evening Of the day before that on which
they were booked to sail.
The letters were thus thrust away to
be read on board the steamer, and In
the confusion the postscript was over
looked.
Had she known the news Lola would
have turned back at any risk and have
arranged to prolong an experience which
had been the brightest Of her life.
She had never dreamed that marriage
with Sir Jaffray would bring the hap.
piness to her which she had found in it.
She had married him from motives
which were purely worldly and selfish.
She had to make position. She loved
ease and luxury. She was done with love
and sentiment and she chose a husband

because it gave her all that she wanted

price, had been one of her favorite
opinions and she was glad that she had
been able to marry where the man
would pay no freely and where he per-
sonally was not undesirable.
But she had made one miscalculation
in her plans.
She was woman whose heart was
not dead, as she believed. but rather
had never been quickened into life.
She had imagined that she could go
through life as sort Of Unconditional
lay figure by the side Of husband
whom she did not love, suffering his
caresses and endearments, but not re-
turning them or at most paying with
simulated affection for the comforts
with which he would surround her.
But in her there were no neutral tints'
She must love or hate.

A City 100000 Year. Old.

At Cherokee. in Butte county, Cal,
during the mining operations in a deep
canyon there have been found several
mortars, evidently used in pounding
grain. One had the pestle actually
standing in it. These were discovered
from IL to 40 feet below the surface,
in fine quartz gravel mixed with sand.
Eminent geologists have proved this to
be the bed of an old inland sea, which
existed long before the last ice period.
The canyon is 5000 feet deep, and, cal
culating that it has been eaten out by
water at the rate of 21h feet a century,
we have 1900 centuries Add to this
the time required for the formation of
strata over the mortars-6OO centuries
and we are forced to the conclusion
that man sufficiently civilized to grow
grain and make bread existed on this
earth 10000 years ago.

Hoo Hoos in Bloom ers,

Some time within the next three
weeks there will be given a minstrel
show at the opera house that will bring
out the best comedians and vocalists of
this city. The old fashioned style will
be done away with, while the very lat
est fads of minstrelsy, the new woman,
bloomers and all, will be brought out,
and ballad and quartette singing, to-
gether with instrumental specialties of
q high order, viii make up the first
part and olio The afterpiece will con-
sist of very laughable sketch entitled
Fun in a Boarding House,, - ia which
Il well known local boniface will re-
ceive attention.
There will be also a street parade in
costume, headed by military band,
and as the gentlemen already forming g
the company are enthusiastic over the
matter, the officers of the Ell Paso pub
lie library for which the show will be
given, will have reason to anticipate a
satisfactory financial result.
The program will appear later.

mantle and Pathetic.
Miss Phoebe Emmons Dubois, whose
funeral occurred at Bath Beach, New
York, the other day, had a romantic and
pathetic history, says an exchange. She
was 62 years of age, and for the past
30 years had mourned the loss during
the war of her lover, young Virginian
of the well-known Carten family, who
became an officer of the confederate
army and lost his life at the battle Of
Antietam, where he displayed signal
bravery. After graduating from Vas
sar college Miss Dubois made her debut
in Brooklyn society at fancy dress ball
given by her parents. There she met
Henry Carten, who was then on a visit
to New York in the attempt TO get
southern sympathizers in the Empire
state to contribute to the confederate
cause. 1t was a case of love at first
sight on both sides, and young Carten
Immediately sued for Miss Dubois
hand. She was willing, but her parents
positively refused their consent be-
cause of Carten's southern affiliations.
He returned to Virginia heartbroken
and shortly after event to the 'front.'"
where death found him. Ever since that
day Miss Dubois has been a recluse.
