A KLONDlKE ROMANCE.
Gold Dust Was All Right, but There w:
Something More Valuable.

Gold Dust Was All Right. but There Wa.
Something More Valuable.
Lady Clara Klondike, the golden
haired daughter of the first Duke OF
Dawson, stood within the grand old oak
en- hall Of her fathers palace, overlook
ing the frozen river and the snowclad
hills She was clothed heavily in rich
and elegant furs, for the winter had
been long and cold and the end was not
yet.
She shivered as the seneschal an
nounced the arrival of the Count of St.
Michael's. Full we'll she knew the intent
of the count visit, and she steeled her
self for the encounter which she knew
must follow quick upon their meeting.
Seeing the fair being standing by the
wide fireplace of the drawing room,
looking more lovely than he had ever
seen her, he approached her side in a
whirl of emotion.
"At last, " he calculated in suppress
ed tones.
"Why?" she inquired in tone Of
voice which made the Klondike winter
seem ike GrOplc cream.
"Oh, sweet Claire, " he mur1nured,
80 long have I yearncd for this mo-
ment. Day unto day uttereth speech and
night unto night showeth knowledge,
but all days were dumb to me and all
nights black in ignorance while have
been waiting to come thus into your
presence and offer you my heart, my
hand and my fortune. "
Thus speaking, he flung himself at
her feet, the meanwhile ten large and
soiled Indians from the headwaters of
the river came forward rolling into the
pure, unadulterated gold dust worth
$19.35 an ounce at any mint in the
land.
At first Lady Claire's fair face took
ON a kindly look, and there was in ii
almost a rosy flush of hope She watch
ed the barrels eagerly, for they looked
so much like the barrels her father was
wont to pack hams in ere he had come
hither from Chicago SO many years
agone.
However, it was but moment until
she detected nothing in the barrels save
gold dust, and she involuntarily an6
convulsively clutched at her bediamond-
ed and gold stomacher, hanging now sc
loosely about her fair form.
The count, still at her feet, took nc
notice, for he had not spent the winter
in Klondike and did not know how il
was.
AS she saw what the count was Law
ishing upon her she drew back and
touched him with her foot as token
that he might arise
Take back your gold, count, she
said, waving her lily white hand fol
the Indians to withdraw as they had
come-that is, accompanied by the bar
rels. Take back your gold have nc
use for it here. 1t was kind of you tc
think of it. and l am sure 1 appreciate
your courtesy, but Charlie McManagin
has 40 pounds of boiled dog which he
says shall be all mine own if / accept
him, and you must excuse me, count,
really you must. "
Before the ice broke up in the river
in July the count began to understand
Lady Claire's choice. w. J. hampton

national complications. II Spain should
call upon the United States government
TO give up the prisoner Of war, able au-
